EXPAT LIFE IN BANGKOK — AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

In this vlog, I meet Sebastian, a German expat living in Asia for nearly 10 years. #bangkok #bangkokearthquake #expatsinbangkok

We tour his high-rise condo in Bangkok just days after the earthquake, where he shares footage that went viral and landed him on CBS News.

Sebastian explains why he stayed indoors during the panic and gives us a tour of his 31st-floor apartment, rooftop amenities, and local neighborhood.

The vlog ends with a visit to a rooftop beach club, showcasing Bangkok's modern side that many tourists miss. Despite the drop in post-earthquake tourism, Sebastian shows why Bangkok remains an expat paradise with clean public transit, affordable luxury, and year-round sunshine.
