The brunette beauty, who is living just outside of the capital, Bangkok, claimed that leaving the UK was the “best decision” she has ever made.
Keen to open up on her now much more purse-friendly lifestyle, the content creator took to social media and gave her followers a close-up look at her new rented accommodation, leaving many gobsmacked.
Showing off the huge property, which has a stunning swimming pool, she said: “This is what £325 [a month] can get you in Thailand.
“So you have a massive pool, there's places to sit outside and then there's a kids playroom, so it's perfect for people who have kids.”

The influencer, who has a job in paid advertising and is able to work remotely, explained that not only does she now have a “better quality of life” but she also praised the “friendly people” in Thailand.
As a result, she claimed to “feel safer and happier”.

Moving house hacks
1. Declutter Before You Pack
Sort through your belongings and get rid of anything you no longer need. Donate, sell, or recycle items to lighten your load.
2. Create an Inventory
Make a list of all your items. This helps keep track of everything and ensures nothing gets lost in the move.
3. Use Quality Packing Materials
Invest in sturdy boxes, bubble wrap, and packing tape. This will protect your belongings during the move.
4. Label Everything
Clearly label each box with its contents and the room it belongs to. This makes unpacking much easier and more organized.
5. Pack a 'First Day' Box
Include essentials like toiletries, a change of clothes, snacks, and important documents. This will keep you from rummaging through boxes on your first day.
6. Take Photos of Electronics Setup
Before unplugging your electronics, take photos of the wiring setup. This will make it easier to reconnect everything at your new place.
7. Use Suitcases for Heavy Items
Pack books and other heavy items in rolling suitcases. This makes them easier to transport and reduces the risk of injury.
8. Colour-Code Your Boxes
Use different coloured stickers or markers for each room. This will help movers quickly identify where each box should go in your new home.
