Nothing but sunshine, beaches and a more affordable cost of living and an easier lifestyle compared to the cost of everything (food, transportation, utilities, groceries, restaurants, Netflix, Prime Video and HBO, WiFi, etc) in Canada. And a healthier choice of food in Thailand. I would have probably chose to pick a place in Koh Samui or close to Koh Phi Phi myself because of the nice beaches there. Stay safe and keep a sharp mind.
