Hallo everyone

I need advice on the best affordable (R350/700) (687 /1375 bath) pn at hotels/rooms for 2 just need aircon maybe breakfast

Places to visit and things to do what was the best for u and how much did it cost?

We love to explore, outdoors and high adrenaline rushes, not huge drinkers

We would like to do some beach holiday but thinking 5 days max as we live like 1km away from the beach and dont go much anyway (not big on sand and wind)

How much is needed by age bracket to retire comfortably in Thailand?

Age 50-55 = $XXXk?

60-65 = $XXXk?

I ask because there was a post recently (another group) where a 52yo woman was planning to retire in Thailand with GBP 200k savings and GBP 1600/mth income.

To me that seems too small for retirement considering she may need that amount to survive another 30+ years.

What do you think, is that enough? Or much more needed?

(I'm thinking a minimum of $1000/mth is needed for a satisfactory, stress-free living)
