    Bangkok Ranks Most Popular City in Asia for Digital Nomads

    BANGKOK (NNT) - A study by Resume.io, a Netherlands-based online resume maker, has found that Bangkok is the most popular city in Asia for digital nomads and ranks fourth globally, supported by affordable internet and living costs.


    Resume.io indicated that Bangkok’s ranking shows it is a firm favorite for a post-pandemic influx of digital nomads who can work anywhere via telecom technologies by using laptops, often at coffee shops, co-working spaces and public libraries.


    According to Resume.io, the rankings were determined by analyzing geo-location data of almost 90,000 Instagram posts tagged #digitalnomad and a cost of living index.


    Rolf Bax, a content specialist at Resume.io, said Bangkok fits perfectly with nomadic lifestyles, with cheap living costs, easy transport and warm weather. Thailand can capitalize on this opportunity by enhancing its appeal to digital nomads, and can also gear up for investments in programs that attract overseas workers, marketing the country as the No.1 destination in Asia.

    Vancouver, Canada was #1. Other than fresh air and mountains, I'd say Thailand beats it on all fronts.

    Was surprised to see London as Europe's #1.

    If living in a cultural wasteland set within a medieval, feudal society without free expression, and with no meaningful rule of law applicable to all equally, but which offers an endless parade of shopping malls selling identical products at identical prices in a sweat soaked broiling environment requiring omnipresent air-conditioning to survive with no public open spaces beyond a few parks in which the climate makes it too damn hot to dally, where the air is universally measured to be below WHO health minima with chronic congestion of the entire road transport system a perennial feature of daily life, where the hygiene standards are poor, the infrastructure is subject to regular flooding and racism against foreigners is overt and practised daily, then, yes, Bangkok is for you.

    Have you managed to persuade the wingman to let you move back there yet?
