🛕 Live in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Are you planning to retire in Chiang Mai in 2023 or 2024? Here are keys to success to live in Chiang Mai: how to meet new people and make friends; new activities; cheap things to do and stay active and healthy.
Randy Hicks is a semi-expat, dividing his time between Chiang Mai, Thailand and San Diego, California. And his girlfriend, Joy, is a local Thai, so combined, they have great information for you about starting a new life here in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
We will tell you a sports club you can join for golf, tennis, cricket, frisbee golf and more, for only about a dollar a day. And the same with a resort to use their pool, exercise equipment, whirlpool, sauna and steam bath - for only a dollar a day. And there is the expats club with over a dozen activity clubs. And more . . .
Let us help you hit the ground running to start a new life here in Chiang Mai, full of fun, friends and adventure.
Just FYI, one bad thing about Chiang Mai to be aware of is the "smokey season," or some call it the burning season. This is when farmers burn their crops to regenerate the soil (or to promote mushroom growth) all around the north: Laos, Myanmar, northern Thailand. It turns beautiful Chiang Mai into an unpleasant place (not so bad some years but terrible in 2023), usually. February to April. So you need to factor in that you might want to use these months to travel, either around Thailand (cheap flights and cheap places to stay, but you are maybe paying rent in Chiang Mai while you are gone, so a double expense while away), or to be your annual trip out of Asia or to your home country.

I first came to Chiang Mai sever years ago because my daughter, Hailey Hicks, moved here. She is the director of HH Premium Visa in Chiang Mai, a Thai-licensed visa agency. She and her visa angels help people obtain elite visas (for all of Thailand) and retirement visas (for Chiang Mai only), and help people from all around the world move to, or retire, in Chiang Mai. So, if you are moving to Chiang Mai and use her services, tell her that her dad sent you! HHPremium.com
