Cambodia vs. Thailand...?
Cambodia vs. Thailand...?
Hi Everyone,
I currently live in Thailand and am thinking about maybe moving to Cambodia next year. I am writing to see if anybody else has taught in Thailand then moved to Cambodia and can give insights into general similarities and differences in terms of the people, nightlife, teaching, culture, etc. I know this may seem like a broad question, but I didn't know what to expect when moving to Cambodia (from Thailand). I like it here how the people are friendly, the cost of living is cheap, and people have good manners (except while driving ), as well as other things. I visited Phnom Penh before, and as I remember the Cambodians were decent, but I don't remember much since I was there a few days only.
Thanks!

hi there
so why are you wanting to leave Thailand? just wanting a change?
It will be a change.
Whether it is a change that suits you or not can really only be determined by you.
What do you want from Cambodia that you think Thailand is not giving you?

Cambodia is way cheaper than Thailand, very easy to get a job teaching at an international school as well, you'll be rich if you make the move. What's the worst that could happen?
And when people living in Thailand read this, the shit is gonna hit the fan ..... thats the way it usually goes.Sublime wrote:Cambodia is way cheaper than Thailand, very easy to get a job teaching at an international school as well, you'll be rich if you make the move.

It's harder to take a parachuteless jump from from the 16th floor in Cambodia.

People used to complain about the elderly sex tourists, now they are being scared off!

Hope you're rich
Cambodia is fucking expensive
Apartments are like $400 unfurnished
Then you have to pay $100 for decent internet and $50 for electricity
And don't even ask whether the building has a gym and a pool

Thailand is much better, it has much better malls and the people smile and are cheerful all the time. Only hopeless poor people live in Cambodia and they are constantly crying while avoiding landmines and brutality. Sovannykap!
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
