Question about relocating to Koh Samui?
I'm moving to Koh Samui in January and I need some fresh ideas as to how to go about "job" searching.
I am recently certified as a childrens yoga instructor (ages toddler through teen)... I'd love to be able to do this in Thailand - Where are some good places to apply? Do children speak English? (I intend to learn Thai, but it may take some time)
I'm also a Reiki Master, Raw food chef, and nutritionist. Anything in these fields in Koh Samui?
I'd be happy to work-trade in the right place or circumstance, but would rather find something paid so I can rent a bungalow and spend the rest of my time exploring the land, the ocean and the temples.
Any help, links, connections, or ideas would be so appreciated 
Many thanks and blessings!!
You must realize that the Thai government are very strict when issuing work permits to foreigners. Most foreigners who work in Thailand are there because of their experience, qualifications and technical knowledge.
Other than working, another option is to start up your own business, but if you cannot speak/read Thai you will need a Thai representative who you can trust and who is honest. You should be very careful before fully committing yourself and make sure you do your research.
Koh Samui is a party island and a tourist hot spot - the majority of Thai people on Samui are there to make money and aren't usually from the island. The majority of tourists there are out there to party and have fun. Practically all the money made in Samui is through tourism, from places like bars, nightclubs, restaurants, etc.
Last but not least, Samui is a fairly small island with a high population, so jobs are quite scarce and pretty much unheard of for a foreigner.
For now, i think you should do some research and possibly spend some time in Koh Samui and you will realize what i am talking about. 99% of tourists (including me) would love to live and work in Samui, but cant because of reality.
Good luck with it all anyways.
