    For more extensive treatment, the nearest international hospital in Phuket, is just a couple of hours away by car. There are several dental practices in Krabi, however, most expats tend to travel to Phuket or Bangkok for major dental work.

    The majority of expats choose to send their children to the local Thai school in Krabi Town, as it offers bi-lingual curriculums. There is also an international school which caters for kindergarten and primary school pupils and teaches a British curriculum.

    There are a good selection of banks in Krabi, however, setting up a bank account can sometimes prove difficult for foreigners. Expats must be in possession of a non-immigrant visa, such as a work permit or retirement visa. This will must often be supported by other papers, such as a copy of their property rental agreement, or a copy of the lease if they have chosen to buy a property in Krabi. Alternatively, expats can withdraw money from their home account at one of the many ATMs or use the international money transfer facilities available in most of the banks.

    Expats inevitably miss home comforts from time to time, such as a favourite beer or meal. In Krabi they are able to satisfy their craving for something familiar in one of the many authentic foreign bars and restaurants, run by expats themselves. And if they are looking for retail therapy or entertainment, then there are some excellent shopping and leisure facilities, including a multiplex cinema and Tesco Lotus Mall, just outside of Krabi Town itself.

    Learning the Thai Language

    Unsurprisingly, one of the greatest hurdles an expat faces when moving to Krabi, is the language barrier. Although English is widely spoken in the tourists areas, most expats try to master basic vocabulary so they can at least order food and drinks. There are many Thai language courses in Krabi, which are recommended for those that plan to stay long-term. Being able to speak some basic Thai helps an expat integrate and enables them to do business with, and make friends with the locals. It is also a fantastic way to learn about and become immersed in the extraordinarily rich Thai culture.

    Moving abroad can be a challenge but the rewards usually far outweigh any minor inconveniences. If you dream of swapping a busy, stressful life in a dreary climate, for a relaxed, outdoor lifestyle in beautiful and vibrant corner of the world, then both the Krabi expat community and the locals are waiting to welcome you with open arms!

    Our journey in the fields of broken dreams is getting more complicated. It is 1937 all over again except our industrial base is somewhere else in the world.

    President Obama sent out a four page letter asking for money for the Democratic National Committee. I no longer vote for either major party because there really is only one party and it should be called the Globalist Free traders Party. The elder Pres. Bush put the free trade programstogether while announcing the New World Order. Pres. Clinton followed and has his Democrat controlled congress pass the programs. Pres Bush, the son, came and activated more while putting on his "shock and awe" wars that took American eyes off of what he was doing behind the scenes with the globalist free traders and money changers.
