Why Thailand is STILL the Best Place for Remote Workers: Visas, Work Permits, and Community

In this episode, I speak with Jimmy Bernberg from Iglu to discuss the nuances of starting and running a business in Thailand. Jimmy, a Swedish citizen living in Thailand since 2016, shares his journey from landing his first job in Thailand to becoming a Senior Sales Manager at Iglu. We dive into the benefits of the BOI and outsourcing models, the lifestyle and community perks of living in Thailand, and valuable tips for establishing legal work. If you're considering Thailand for remote work, business development, or are just curious about the expat lifestyle, this episode is packed with insights and real-life experiences. Plus, Jimmy shares his love for motorcycle racing and how the hobby has connected him with a vibrant community of expats.
