WHY RetirING IN Thailand PART-TIME MAY BE BEST FOR YOU
Part-Time or Permanent Retirement In Thailand
At least initially, you may prefer to spend the northern winters in Thailand. The best six months to be in Pattaya are from November to April each year. This is the "HIGH SEASON" when Pattaya is at it's exhilarating best with glorious weather, and when countries like UK and USA are possibly at their worst.
Whether you chose to retire in Thailand PART-TIME or FULL-TIME, my personal services for you are identical. You will still need your Thailand Retirement Visa (with multiple entry, so you can come and go to Thailand as many times as you want) plus your Thai Baht bank account, and all the services outlined in detail within this website.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me today for a video chat.
Thailand is called "The Land of Smiles" for a reason
My mission is to help you create YOUR ideal retirement in Thailand
I am dedicated to providing high-quality personalized services to ensure my clients are able to live their best lives in the vibrant seaside city of Pattaya within the exotic country of Thailand. My mission is to improve the overall happiness and well-being of people looking for much more in their golden retirement years.
TROPICAL RELIEF FROM ARTHRITIS, RHEUMATISM, JOINT PAINS
Thailand’s hot and humid tropical climate offers natural relief for arthritis, rheumatism, and joint pain sufferers. Warm temperatures help relax muscles, increase blood circulation, and reduce joint stiffness, allowing for easier movement and less discomfort.
Unlike cold climates that often aggravate symptoms, Thailand’s consistent heat reduces inflammation and supports better joint flexibility. Humidity can also aid in keeping connective tissues more supple, easing pain and improving mobility.
Combined with opportunities for outdoor activity and access to natural therapies like Thai massage, Thailand’s climate creates an ideal environment for those seeking relief from chronic joint-related conditions.
Thailand offers so many opportunities to live a HEALTHIER lifestyle whether at the beach or city
My Personalized Service To Help You Create Your Ideal Life
Pattaya City
In person, you with me during our 3 days together, I will show you the very best place in Thailand in which to live --- PATTAYA CITY! This is not the old “sin city” with a negative reputation, but the modern, vibrant city filled with positive energy and many Brits, Americans, Aussies and other retired, friendly westerners all enjoying life to the fullest.
RELATIONSHIPS | SEX
I will show you the best ways to get a partner for SEX or ROMANCE or COMPANIONSHIP whether part-time or full-time, and whether a live-in or a casual relationship. I will share with you the costs involved with all options from one-night stands to living with a sexual goddess (yes, even “old men” can get a young gorgeous lady, at a price). You can always get sex in Pattaya!
COMMUNITY | SOCIAL LIFE
I will show you how to have a fabulous SOCIAL LIFE and feel a part of the COMMUNITY with the best places and activities that westerners enjoy. Such as golf or badminton or pickle ball or volleyball or hiking or cycling or just beach watching or pool or snooker or darts. You name it, Pattaya has it. Especially enjoying a cold beer with your new mates while watching the pretty girls walk by.
ENTERTAINMENT | DINING
I will give you a guided tour of Pattaya, whether beer bars or gentlemen’s clubs or cinemas for watching the latest movies … Pattaya has it all, and more! Pattaya is a food lover’s paradise. I will share with you the best restaurants for Western and British and European and Indian foods. Including best fish and chips, best Sunday roasts, best buffets, best pasta and pizza, best curry. Pattaya also boasts some incredible “food night markets” with an amazing array of delicious foods. You will never be bored in Thailand!
ACCOMMODATION
Depending on your needs and your monthly budget, I will help you find a modern, clean, apartment or town house within the city or near the beach or on the outskirts of Pattaya that will suit your new lifestyle perfectly. Literally every apartment building has a swimming pool for relaxation and making friends as part of your healthy social life.
Thai RETIREMENT VISA | Thai Driving License
If you are over 50 years of age, you can apply for an immediate THAILAND RETIREMENT VISA (with multiple entry) valid for 15 months initially, then 12 months annually, easily renewed year after year. I will in-person help you complete this process within your first two days in Pattaya. Also, if you will be driving in Thailand, I will point you in the right direction to get your THAILAND DRIVING LICENSE.
THAILAND BANK ACCOUNT | MONEY TRANSFERS
Same as for your retirement visa, this is VITALLY IMPORTANT. I will in-person introduce you to the best agency for your Thailand bank account, plus help you complete this simple process in just a few hours. For money transfers to Thailand, I will help you to set up an account in less than 5 minutes at the company with the best exchange rates and least expensive fees for transferring your money from your home bank to your Thailand bank. Transfers typically take seconds only with minimal fees.
HEALTH AND DENTAL CARE
I will personally share with you my recommendations for the best choices for DOCTORS and HOSPITALS and DENTISTS in Pattaya. Ultimately it is YOUR decision as to what health care you get depending on your budget and your personal preferences. What I will do is give you my best guidance in this important area of your retired life in Thailand. For example. Pattaya has a dozen major hospitals from which you can choose your preferred medical center for your own needs. One thing is for sure, health care in Thailand is world class
MASSAGES | HAIR & NAILS
One of the best experiences in Thailand is having a personal massage. For less than five pounds you can get a 30-minutes foot massage. Ten pounds will get you a one-hour one-on-one body massage. And for a little extra money, you can avail of a sexual “happy” massage.
For a haircut, I typically pay less than four pounds for a haircut. And the same price, less than four pounds, for a manicure, and less that four pounds for a pedicure. All of this in a modern, clean, air-conditioned salon with friendly female staff. In Thailand, your satisfaction is always guaranteed!
SOCIAL MEDIA | Apps
I will inform you of the best SOCIAL MEDIA people and outlets to keep you informed and up-to-date on news and activities in Thailand and Pattaya in general. Plus I will recommend several APPS which are an essential part of your arsenal of tools to help make your retirement life in Thailand smoother and easier. A hassle-free life for you is my aim.
TROPICAL WEATHER
Thailand has incredible weather, but for many westerners it is too hot, especially during the “Thai Summer” months of March to May. The temperature being too hot is the biggest NEGATIVE for many expats. However, I can give you solid advice on the best ways to combat the heat. Such as many restaurants and bars and all modern shopping malls have air-conditioning. I will help you ensure your chosen accommodation has good air-con. Let me tell you this: much better to be too hot than too cold. And you can always enjoy having a cold beer at the beach or at one of the bars overlooking the beach.
AFFORDABILTY
For pretty much everything, except for healthcare, Pattaya City is less expensive than western nations in terms of living expenses. Here is a partial list of things often cheaper in Thailand than UK and USA, for example: food, beer, accommodation, utilities, entertainment, massage, haircut, manicure & pedicure, and SEX!
Beers on the beach with a bevy of local beauties! Cheers!
