Discover Life in Bangkok with our Agodans

Travelers know Bangkok is special. TimeOut has even named it the best city in Asia and the second-best city in the world. But what’s it really like to live in Asia’s most vibrant city?

Hear it straight from the people who’ve made the leap: our Agodans. They come from around the world and all walks of life: some with families, some with pets, some with partners, and some solo, armed with nothing but a sense of adventure.

It’s no small decision to move across the globe, and through their stories, you’ll to discover what it’s like to build a thriving life and career in Bangkok. They share their practical tips, funny memories, honest “wish I’d knowns”, cost comparisons, and what led them to this life-changing journey.
