I work as a documentary sound engineer, mostly on independent films and travel projects. My job only requires good internet, reliable power, and access to interesting environments. After years of bouncing between countries, I wanted a base that was affordable, inspiring, and logistically simple.
Thailand checked all the boxes. I started searching for property seriously and found https://thailand-real.estate/. What I liked most was how easy it was to explore non-obvious locations, not just the usual tourist hotspots.
I ended up buying a quiet townhouse outside Chiang Rai. It’s surrounded by hills, villages, and sounds you can’t fake in a studio—rain on metal roofs, early morning markets, insects at night. Perfect for my work.
Now I still travel for projects, but I always come back here. Having a stable home has made my work better and my life much calmer.
