When making decisions, taking into account what sort of community and environment we really want to live in is paramount. The most obvious is not always the best.<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Thailand offers a wide range of places to reside for both city lovers, and those who crave a remote lifestyle. These include towns and provinces with attractive outdoor activities, beautiful natural scenery, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The following are seven of the best places outside of the main cities in Thailand to consider calling home.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pai, Mae Hong Son<\/h1>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Known as a paradise for backpackers and digital nomads, Pai is not just a tourist destination. Many expats have made this mountainous town in Thailand&rsquo;s northern Mae Hong Son province their home. If you&rsquo;re looking for somewhere in Thailand with a creative, artistic expat community, but without the hustle and bustle of Bangkok, Pai might be ideal for you. One cool spot to visit is the Malamong Art Caf&eacute;, where you can admire beautiful landscape art while sipping coffee and herbal tea. The best thing about living in Pai is having access to Huai Nam Dang national park. The park provides a scenic space for hiking and camping, and is home to the <\/span>Pong Dueat Pa Pae Hot Spring.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5bb63e6e781a8393d170b327286e00bd.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" ><\/a> <\/p>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trat <\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Located near the Cambodian border, Trat is a charming town that serves as a gateway to the beautiful islands of Koh Chang and Koh Kood. With relatively few expats, Trat is a place that still feels authentically Thai. It&rsquo;s perfect for those who want to truly feel that they are in rural Thailand. Partly due to Trat&rsquo;s tranquillity, coral reefs in the surrounding waters are healthy and vibrant to see if you enjoy snorkelling. Trat province is home to the Mu Koh Chang National Park, a marine park with 52 islands. The best thing about living in Trat is the ability to take a ferry out to tourist-centred islands such as Koh Chang when you want to be pampered in a luxury hotel, while still living in a place that feels quiet, peaceful, and truly Thai.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.koktailmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/417ddee53c508c201049a040344d548a.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" ><\/a> <\/p>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kanchanaburi<\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Known for its lush forests, Kanchanaburi is an outdoor lover&rsquo;s haven.
