How do I meet people in Thailand?
When we asked people living in Thailand about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"American Women's Club, Community Services of Bangkok, American Chamber of Commerce, International Women's Ministry, and American Association of University Women. Any local group formed in your particular neighborhood. If you have children, become involved in their school," remarked another expat in Bangkok, Thailand.
"Expats in Thailand often join local clubs and activities to mingle with other expats and locals. International associations, book clubs, running and cycling clubs, as well as meetup groups are popular among expats in Thailand. Expats can also get involved with local organizations or volunteer work to meet interesting people with similar interests. Social media and online forums are increasingly popular for expats to connect with each other, share tips about living and working in Thailand, and learn about special events and activities in their area. Local coffee houses and bars are also great places to meet other expats and locals alike and socialize," said a member in Thailand.
