sandemara Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 How come people don't compare some of the priceless things in both countries - freedom of expression, political comment, travel, or education and health standards, personal safety, travel and traffic etc? Such issues make "cost of living" discussions a little lop-sided, if not relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand is not for you obviously, but maybe you'd find fault wherever you live. I know I pay more for some items in Thailand than back in Australia, but overall, I still prefer to live here.
