JC’s Road Trip – Living as a RIPper in a Smaller City — Lampang, Thailand Part 2

Well for all the fans that love the North of Thailand, here you go. Part 2 of my road trip to Lampang. Let’s head off to see what Lampang has for a RIPper wanting a little more peace and quiet than what a city like Chiang Mai offers. Chiang Mai with it’s growth and being a major tourist destination is quickly losing some of it’s charm.
So what are some more options? What does it cost and what is it like to live in Lampang? Can living only a little more than one hour from Chiang Mai really make a difference in the quality of life? Can a category 1 RIPper (Retiree In Paradise) live well in Lampang? Well I am off to find out. We will see what the upsides and downsides are to living in a smaller Thai town in the North. Here is a little intro about Lampang and it’s history and some things that have put Lampang on my radar screen as a great place to retire to. So join with me as we dig in and explore what Lampang has to offer!
