    Re: Bye Bye Thailand

    When looking at potential retirement destinations, how much do you consider the ease with family members could visit? It would be pretty important to me.

    It's 2018. Geographical location isn't as important as it once was. Watch a couple movies, take a shit, and you're pretty much anywhere in the world you want to be.

    Now if you decide to move to space, which is starting to appear it may become a possibility within my lifetime, then that may be quite difficult. Any where on earth is quite easy though.

    Why would someone want family members to visit them?

    I get along very well with my family. Sorry if you don't.

    LOL..thanks Joe.
    If you are close to your family living many time zones away apparently is not an option for you. I am happy you are close to your family.
    I was in Portugal last winter - visiting my foster son (I love that boy) - and I would love to retire there but as an American it is not as easy for me to retire in Portugal as it is for Europeans.

    My family are all deceased. Although I doubt that any would want to come to Thailand to visit me even if alive.

    And rather embarrassing for some, I'd imagine.

    I agree with Joe but I suspect Joe and I are looking for different completely opposite outcomes. Joe probably want his family to visit.I want to be as far away as possible from my family so that there is no possibility they would visit. As you might guess DNA is not a strong bond in my familial group.

    I'd only consider places where it's very difficult for the family to visit, we all get on better that way
