Chiang Mai vs Da Nang | Expat Life Comparison

In this video, I compare life in Chiang Mai and Da Nang from a real expat perspective, not as a tourist, but based on actually living in both. I cover cost of living, lifestyle, accommodation, food, infrastructure, and what daily life really feels like in each city. Both are popular digital nomad hubs, but they offer very different experiences depending on what you’re looking for. If you’re a remote worker, freelancer, entrepreneur, retiree, or just considering a move abroad, this will help you decide which city fits you better. 👇 If you run an online business or freelance internationally, this can help you manage your finances smarter: Airwallex: https://airwallex.sjv.io/E0Ey9K 👇 Travel & health insurance for expats I personally use: SafetyWing: https://safetywing.com/nomad-insuranc... 00:00 Intro 01:04 Why Even Compare These Two Cities? 03:08 Lifestyle and Overall Vibe 05:34 Cost of Living 09:12 Accommodation and Housing 11:26 The Food Scene 14:14 Coffee Culture 16:14 People and Community 19:07 Transportation & Getting Around 21:00 Healthcare & Insurance 23:27 Visa Options – Vietnam vs Thailand 24:39 Downsides and Dealbreakers This video includes paid partnerships.
