Love Koh Samui and watching this vlog makes us feel like going back to visit again & rent the little house you’re at...The price is incredibly cheap and thanks for sharing! Glad that you’re traveling to all these places in Thailand........feels like living vicariously through you😉

Keep livin' the dream man! It is so educational seeing how you do things.

Hi Paddy loving your journey I've been trying to do a tour of the whole of Thailand over the last 9 years I visit for a month at a time twice most years. I haven't even scratched the surface. good luck

Absolutely love the realness Paddy! Awesome stuff!🙏🙌

Really enjoyed this one, Paddy. Thanks, as always, for sharing. Your videos are such a pleasure.

What a surprise to see Flora and Note on your channel,,,, actually your channels are the only ones I watch from Thailand,,,, wholesome people you just want to give a hug to.... Next Level...!

Great Video Paddy

Yet another excellent video Paddy.

Thanks for hosting us in your cozy blue house! More fun to come in Samui :)

A few vlogs ago you were in the Andaman Sea and now you're in the Gulf of Thailand! I feel like I can virtually go anywhere in Thailand by just selecting the vlog of that area. Love Phi Phi, and love Samui. You're covering it all! I am so glad I subscribed! Top content, Paddy!

Amazing content! I really like to follow your journey

Love your videos! So glad you joined the ZV-1 team 😉 I'm a huge fan of yours, subscribed!

Hi Paddy, I love your adventure video's, the quality of the image is stunning, you do not need to change your camera, even if you shoot your video on an old cellphone camera I would still watch and like your content. The story, the presentation and the location is million times better than losing focus for few seconds here and there. Please save your money. People who threaten to unsubscribe are simply rude and not deserving of your free content.

Hi paddy, congratulation for your new camera. Keep up the good work. Following you on daily basis. Thanks for taking us on this journey

Living my dream. Appreciate all the content and hard work

Love those islands around Samui!

Living the dream life vicariously through your videos! Cheers!

Loved this video! I spent time in Lamai twenty some years ago and have so many great memories of the people and the beautiful surroundings. I even met some local girls who had a cute little house just like yours!!

the best entertainment on the net!

Wow, the tiny blue home is soooooo sweet and looks so lovely. I love to live in there too.

Well, Paddy, I totally get the day to day challenges that you face and potentially might face. On the one hand, you could have a backup camera, backup microphone, backup everything, but then having everything backed up you are then carrying an extra 4 or 5 kilos of equipment. I honestly didn't, haven't noticed equipment glitches... I think you are doing a great job week after week. You are keeping it fresh, interesting, and responsive, considering the ever-present Covid environment...

Wow! good deal on the little blue house!

Great to see this vlog, I've been to Samui twice now en route to Koh PN and Koh Tao. Only saw a small part of Samui, namely The Samui Mermaid and surrounding beach. We landed in the tail end of a cyclone in January 2019. That was an experience. Keep the videos coming!

Looks good, sounds good!

I just love what your doing, and also the camera loves you:) Been a Thailand entusiast for more than 20 years, and Im planing to retire there in just a few years time. Im from Norway btw! All the videos your making are so good, makes me feel that Im there:) and you show us a lot of nice places...and food!!!! Please continue your journey for a looooong time🙏🤗

Looks really beautiful. Great video as always. Was thinking of you this afternoon as we stumbled upon the beautiful blue sinkhole pool that you visited whilst undertaking your 7-eleven challenge in Krabi. The best wrong turn I think we have ever taken. Keep up the good work. Ranong for us tomorrow. Stay safe.

Beautiful house! Island life is just awesome👍

You must must meet Lily an expat and her family . She is a real sweet sweet person . And her family is so nice her husband can be helpful too .

I'm here for the ride from beginning to end! No need to go broke on cameras until your ready to upgrade financially. As your channel grows so will your production budget and I'm fine with it all. Love the channel

Excellent work Paddy your content trumps camera quality mate, cheers!

Hi Paddy, Koh Samui was my least favourite destination in Thailand. I stayed at Chaweng Beach and a walk along the main road was a barrage of massage or tailor every few feet. It was unrelenting and really pissed me off. The airport was probably the highlight for me, not just for leaving but it's a beautiful laidback oasis of calm. I arrived by night train/ferry from Bangkok. Khao Lak looked AMAZING. Thank you for that experience!

The new camera appears to be great. Well done on finding it. It has certainly improved your production quality.

❤️❤️❤️ Paddy me and my wife are absolutely in love with you. You such a rare sight on this cheese youtubers sea. Keep on going with your adventure ,way to go!!! And we don't care about your camera. We only watch your videos because of you and greate content you put in. Please continue to share your fillings with us. Stay positive. Love from Israel🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱

Hi Paddy, fellow Brit here from Khon Kaen and subscribed after seeing you on Johnny's channel. Must have watched well over 2hrs of your posts back to back yesterday. Some great vids with some cracking one liners you drop in them. Keep up the good work mate.

I think your blogging is the best one what I seeing so far. Take care of yourself. Sawatdee kha.

I Love Samui, lived there for 2 years - tip, just as you headed first time in Lamai to the beach - these 2 seafood restaurants have brilliant food, and the nightlife in Lamai is quite neat to the one in Chaweng but I much prefer Lamai. Go out and discover Samui it is a beautiful place, except Chaweng - I do not like it...but discover yourself you will see what I refer to. I will not spoil you where to go and where not - you are an experienced Thailand traveler, I am sure you will make your way! Love your channel, keep it coming - thank you and CHOK DEE! By the way, the new cameras work amazingly with much better video quality! For the accommodation, you are extremely lucky, as Lamai isn't cheap anymore and to find a place like home, including everything (except electricity) for this price is an achievement on its own! Great place. (of course, some have to consider it is cheap now because of Covid and a big decrease of Tourists in Thailand) - 600 THB a day - unbelievable price value rate!!! - usually impossible in Lamai...except you rent a small house for a long time) Samui has never a bad vibe - it is, even it is touristic an unbelievable nice island, where my family and myself who are living in the north of Thailand still travel every year to, as I really like the Lamai area and do not like the vibe of Pattaya...

Cool that you got to meet up with Flora and Note!

Great episode again and the focus is right there where it should be ;) The Sony you got is very good one, just be careful with the retractable lens, you should keep it very clean, sand or some dirt can jam it.

Thanks for share 😀👍🇩🇰you are so funny 😂 love your video nice to have a good friend you will love this island great apartment

Glad you got the replacement cameras but I would have kept watching anyway! I am amazed at the newer technology... we are so vain that we need the camera to fix all of our flaws! I personally LIKE seeing all of the REAL parts... puffy eyes on early mornings (or after too much to drink the night before), sunburnt skin (you Brits should own stock in suncream! ;) ) etc etc. I know that I for one come for the reality of KZreadr life - not the glossed over, 'dewy' complected, never have a terrible day life that some seem to think we want to see. Thailand is already proving to be almost complete perfection (in the Southern region!) Thank you for continuing to be real!

I love Kho Samui. Lamai Beach is just an awesome place to stay. Was there just before Lockdown. Enjoy

Really looking forward to this segment of the adventure Paddy. Nice little blue house! You have to get back and find out what fruits those were. I had the feeling they are a type of lime but would like to know for sure.

I love koh Samui. Been there a couple of times. I can finally say... he.. I walked there!!

Ko Chang is the second biggest Island, after Phuket. Nice video, Paddy. Stay safe!

Awkward is good in these crazy times and I prefer videos that's not all slick n shiny. Times have changed and your videos bring so much joy to those stuck at home, miles away from any beach or jungle 😘

Very nice place to stay

How sweet to send the camera..!

Your new Sony camera is great for night filming! And you're right much easier to carry than the Panasonic one. Dana from Idea Studio, Chris who sent you some of his famous "awkward" t-shirts, now Flora & Note on Koh Samui: you are meeting with my favorite Thailand KZreadrs one after the other😉. I love it!

Very nice looking place,small house, 5/5

Dont know if you miss the crispy noodles from Chaing Mai but you can get them from restaurant were you stopped to first show beach.. fantastic place

Finally you're in Focus ! The Sony ZV1 is really good, did you get the selfie stick too ? and OMG ! Note and Flora, wave wave !!! Stay Safe !

Love samui!!!!!!!! miss it

I love the variation in the videos. Always a few things to take in and focus on! If you were able, would you own property in Thailand?

Samui is nice but Koh Phangan is awesome, enjoyed the vid.

Paddy, when you the best sunset views on Samui, let me know. Can meet up for beer and sunset. Keep up the great work
