Don’t retire to Southeast Asia if….

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

I was previously availing myself of credit card included travel medical insurance by regularly returning to my home country as a perpetual tourist. Now that I've bitten bullet on expat insurance...at my age, that is a significant impost. Albeit a necessary one I think unless I want use up all my retirement savings or my family need to succumb to a gofundme..

For the temples, the food, the weather, the cost of living. Definitely not for the girls!

Unless it’s the perfect girl and she wants to live there. The temples, the food, the weather, cost of living, all other considerations fall to the wayside.

Haha made me think of that Iranian dude James FT who posted on YouTube saying 'Do not come to Cambodia' complaining about the rubbish everywhere and that he couldn't get a Tinder date in 3 days so he had to go back to BKK. His vids appear to have since been deleted..and of course he's been banned from KOW. post384125.html#p384125

Bulgaria seems to be an alternative - but not for me !

A woman packs up everything in her beloved home in Germany to retire to Bulgaria where she can afford to live.
