What are your favorite places in Asia as digital nomad? I want to go for a few months early next year but can't decide where exactly.

Bali, Thai islands and Siargao

Da Nang, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Bali, HK

Does anyone know the best city to travel in Laos as a digital nomad? My Thai Visa will expire soon and I dont want to do a visa run but stay in 1 city or a month.

Luang Prabang. But Vang Vieng is also cool. Vientiane is not a good option tbh

A month is a long time in any one of the main cities/towns imo so I would spread it out and do Vientiane, Vang Vieng and Luang Prabang since they’re all a short train ride away from each other. If I had to spend a month anywhere I would chose Vientiane as the internet is mostly fast and reliable and there is some semblance of nightlife and nomad/expat scene there. LP is pretty but also pretty boring and the internet will frustrate. As beautiful as it is I would not recommend trying to spend a month in VV, especially at this time of year.

Thanks for the info!

Hi! Is there anyone who recently has been to Myanmar and could share the experience? Considering visiting it for a 2 weeks/month

you do you, but the U.S. issued its highest travel advisory warning for Myanmar Level 4 - Do Not Travel, e.g., same as N. Korea

I feel like the US has a warning for every country. 🙄

Hello! I’m planning to backpack somewhere in Asia for a month in January with my sister. We are mostly interested in hiking, surfing and hanging out with locals. What would be your recommendation where to go? I’ve been to Vietnam and Indonesia already, and thinking about Sri Lanka, Cambodia and Laos.
Anyone does some hiking and can recommend/share his/her experience?
Thanks for your time!

Hey U05M3LB1PKPbr /> Hope you’re doing great!

I didn’t need the residency for staying, I needed it for having a base in the region and being able to apply for other countries visa like Japan, South Korea, China, etc.

Is anyone else keen to be in Kazakhstan for the World Nomad Games in Sept 2024? It looks incredible and I am absolutely buzzing to attend. It's a big sporting event showcasing traditional sports of nomadic peoples, with participants from 26 countries. I can't find a huge amount of info about where exactly events will be held or tickets yet, but definitely hoping to experience this 🙏 www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn-LIjQVkm0

Very interesting

Where is a channel for Cambodia?

Where would you go in Asia right now if you could teleport I'm thinking of heading that way now for 6 months but not sure where to start

When in doubt, Thailand

Surely you must have some countries/regions in mind? If not, maybe do some research, can't help you when your question is this broad.

Been loving in Phuket Thailand and LOVE IT! Nov- Feb is the best weather.

That's what I'm counting on 😄

It got fixed eventually

What is the best country in Asia to spend Christmas and New Year?
• must be warm
• can't be Thailand because VISA expiring

Singapore has a great NYE celebration

🛬 imrkwpittygg just arrived in 🇧🇳 Bandar Seri Begawan,Brunei, #asia

fyordojedmawx planning to head there soon. Which area are you? Curious what one can expect cost wise for rent

I’m currently in koh sirey but have stayed in witchet and Kamala beach.

Kamala (2022) 2b2ba beach house for $750 a month $200 in electricity

Witchet (April 2023) we had a cute little studio apartment for $400 electricity $150

Koy Sirey (June 2023- now) is a 2 bed 3 bath villa. Super modern, private pool, on the beach. $1400 a month 300-400 in electricity.

This time around we needed a place that was BIG dog friendly so options were limited. You can absolutely find better prices than this of you are traveling by yourself

Still really helpful, I appreciate it!

Phuket

Friend was telling me about Homa as well. Seems interesting with all the ammenities

The one near Phuket town seems really pretty. Roof top pool is sick and the food was great. Def in a busy area though so you’ll want to check it out to make sure that’s what you want

Happy to hear everyone is doing well. I should arrive middle of next week to Bangkok 😉

I imagine the Philippines, being a strong Catholic nation, should have some good Christmas stuff? Can't vouch for it, but maybe look into it.

xxbpvjnimsixfy thanks for the suggestion. The reviews on NL don't make it sound exciting though :sweat_smile:
Think I'll go with Singapore and/or Malaysia (KL). Malaysia is Muslim but it looks nice on Youtube!

I guess it depends on your style of travel. NL is good, but you'll miss out on a lot of you let it dictate your destinations. They will have some extremely elaborate festivities, and there's a wide range of extremely affordable things to do. I've been to Manila many times, but only through Thanksgiving at end of year. If you like exploring less developed countries then it's easily one of the most foreigner friendly, and english speaking. NomadList gives it a yellow/Okay score, which I think is bollocks. Singapore would be nicer, it I definitely wouldn't do Kuala Lumpur (I've been there as well) over Manila for Christmas. You can find the same accommodations, but the people will be less friendly and the festivities will be less festive, guaranteed. I was looking at some videos, and it's a certainty that the spirit of the Filipino people during Christmas won't be beat.
