This is an Australian man's retirement life, the man's name is Adam James, not very old only in his 40s, but after traveling in Thailand a few years ago, after seeing the customs and customs of Thailand, he germinated the idea of wanting to retire early in Thailand, and then he really quit his job and came to Thailand with all his belongings to live, and here he also found a 20-year-old Thai girlfriend, which is equivalent to opening a second life in Thailand, in fact, this is not uncommon in Thailand, because the price of Thailand is relatively low, the scenery is better, Many foreigners come to Thailand to live a retirement life, so today we will follow in their footsteps and see what it is like to retire in Thailand.
This is the hotel where James and his girlfriend live privately, the place where they are located is Lan Island, also known as Curran Island, the location is 10 kilometers away from the Coast of Pattaya, and then this building, this is the hotel where they live, the price of the hotel is very cheap, only 300 baht per day can be lived, converted to the price of 56 yuan a day, the cost of living here is not high, they did not buy a car, but bought a Honda motorcycle as a means of transportation, James's retirement life, in fact, is very simple, Is to eat and drink with his Thai girlfriend every day, this is the life he yearns for, and today's Thailand, is more in line with his expectations, you can see, because of the epidemic and other reasons this tourist resort is now sparsely populated, so in order to attract passenger flow, has been low-cost promotion, and James and Thai girlfriend today's first stop, just choose in this café, this restaurant in Koh Lan is still famous, before has been a place for foreign tourists to punch in, but now there are no guests in the store, the two of them are equal to the flowers, A cup of matcha and a cup of ice-American money, charter this café, which makes them feel particularly worthwhile, this café is still good, here you can directly admire the entire coastline of Koh Lan, whether it is a fishing boat in the distance, or a close touch with the sea, you can do it.
This is James's girlfriend "sai", transliterated as Sai, is James met in Thailand before, after the two have been in touch, James quit his job, after coming to Thailand, the last two successfully came together, Seth is a very cheerful girl, is a person near Pattaya, her English is very good, and James can communicate without obstacles, and she is very warm and open, perhaps because Pattaya tourism is very developed, so you can see that Sai's dress is relatively open, That's probably why James liked her.
Walking up to the attic, James took us to understand the beautiful scenery here, the sea here is very clear, perhaps because of these two special reasons, since the reduction of tourists cliffs, the sea here is more and more clear, the sea view has become more beautiful, the owner of the café is actually a girl, a few years ago when the tourism industry was booming, earned a lot of money, and then opened this café, and now after the tourists did not come in the past two years, the business has been cold a lot, fortunately, there are still some old customers to take care of, but it will not be closed.
Out of the café, James and his girlfriend are ready to continue to visit the island, this place, originally a children's amusement park, for some families with children, but after the tourists did not come, now in disrepair, there has been a situation of rust spots and screws falling, such as this slide, if you are not careful, there is really a possibility of drawing a hole, now to the children to play is definitely not appropriate, if the tourism industry here is reopened, it is necessary to renovate, the problem is really quite serious, Like this swing, any parents do not dare to let their children play, and Sai is on the side to explain, her role is actually a bit like a tour guide, as a native Thai, she can explain all the customs of Thailand to James.
Continue to visit this magical island, James and his girlfriend climbed to the top of the entire island, where tourism used to be very developed, and even there are paragliding devices, only 1000 baht, you can see the entire island scenery, when a bird flying in Thailand, soaring in the sky, if you can't glide, James said, as long as you spend 2500 baht, the coach can also take you to the sky easily.
After communicating with the locals, James continued to tour Koh Lan, walking on the seashore, we can see that although the epidemic and other reasons have greatly reduced tourists, there are still some people here, including some stranded foreign tourists, as well as some Thai locals, the scenery looks good, even more suitable for tourism than the tourist season, no one's Thai island, no queue to enjoy the amusement facilities here, walking on the beach here, really have to say, Thailand is really God feeding If there is no epidemic, the Thai economy has embarked on the fast lane, here the white sand and blue water, forming a unique scenery, it is not difficult to wonder why so many foreigners, will be willing to travel to Thailand, it is not difficult to wonder, why there are many Western men, will retire here, this love tree is the best embodiment, before I don't know how many couple tourists, here to write the sea oath mountain alliance, will love hanging on the tree, these years the typhoon blew away a lot, but this tree is still a lot, James does not believe this, the Thai girlfriend wants to be with him, but also here also left a love, but he ruthlessly refused, which somewhat annoyed this little Thai wild cat.
Walking tired James and his girlfriend are ready to sit here to rest, by the way ordered some coconut drinks, but if you come to Thailand, you must pay attention to the chair on the side of the road, in the end can not sit, James they sit here, one will cost 50 baht, these are set by the locals, as long as you sit you have to obediently pay money, but James is still willing, sitting under the love tree, the girlfriend's mood has become a lot better, spend 50 baht to calm the anger of the girlfriend, he feels quite worth it, wait until the rest is good, Naturally also need to go to the sea to have fun, this is also the purpose of their trip, close observation, you will find that these sea waters are really clean, Thai little girlfriend in the sea, there is a feeling of home.
Spend a romantic morning in the sea, tired of swimming, James brought his girlfriend here for lunch, lunch is very simple Thai cold mix and chicken wings, the price is not expensive, but this is not the highlight of today, in the evening James continues to take his girlfriend, to the specialty restaurant here, this is a local quite high-grade seaside restaurant, you can eat directly on the beach, smell the salty and wet sea breeze at close range, enjoy delicious food, which makes James's Thai girlfriend very happy, the food here is generally directly sold from seafood production, The price is not expensive, and you can see that even if it is the off-season of the epidemic, the tourists here are not too few, this is the retirement life of this Australian man, not old, he has lived the life that many people dream of, of course, this is not advocated, work or have to work well, the hard work in the early stage, is for the sweetness of the future, I don't know if you envy such a life.
