Real costs. Healthcare depth. Visa realities.

There Is Another Retirement Path

Across Southeast Asia, many Canadians are living well on less — with access to private healthcare, warm climates, and a lower daily cost of living.

But retiring abroad isn’t a vacation decision.

Healthcare systems differ. Visa rules change. Infrastructure varies.

Planet Expat exists to help you evaluate that path clearly — before making a life decision.


Five Countries.

Five Different Trade-Offs.

A Structured Retirement Framework

Planet Expat 2026 is a 180-page guide built specifically for Canadians evaluating retirement in Southeast Asia.

It provides structured, side-by-side comparisons across five countries — Malaysia, Thailand, Bali, Vietnam, and Cambodia.

Built from long-term expat healthcare experience and practical analysis, Planet Expat is not a relocation pitch.

It is a decision framework — designed to help you evaluate options clearly before making a life change.
