I live in Pratumnak with my Thai Wife. If you plan on moving here any problems you have back home like alcohol or money will be made worse. However, if you hit the gym and have a healthy lifestyle it can be amazing as it has been for this Canadian.

Very true.

The main problem with living in Pattaya is that the bars are always calling to you. It’s so difficult to not go, but you can’t start drinking at noon and go all the way until 4 AM every single night. I had a good friend who retired to Angeles City and drank himself to death in a decade. I moved to Pattaya recently, but I have strict rules. Gym everyday, absolutely no day drinking. I also eat very healthy, and no, cheap street food is not good for you. I’m talking about tracking your macros with super healthy western food from grocery stores. This will cost you, but it must be done. Lastly, you must sprinkle in health nights throughout the week to avoid drinking 7 days a week. Massage is a good way to have fun without drinking. Lastly, don’t be afraid to get a soda water in a bar to limit the amount of alcohol you consume. Good luck to everyone, but you must have a plan to stay healthy or you will drink yourself to death.

i have been living in thailand and the number one problem that is never talked about is the amount of things that will get you so sick you will end up in the hospital of which they will charge you some serious money. Stay away from street food and bar ice, it is riddled with giardiasis. During the rainy season stay indoors because that is when dengue is at it’s worse and if you get dengue YOU WILL end up in the hospital. I have never got sick so much in such frequent amounts of time in my life in one place.

great vid man glad to see you back.

Would love to see a video on the other side of the bay, Hua Hin. I'm working on heading there in late August, love the vids and solid info!

thanks for your great video much appreciated

As always, Ian, an informative video. I really enjoy your content.

Good info. Thanks man.

Nailed it on every point! Pattaya is great, as is all of Thailand. It is what you make of it.

Thanks for your videos, it's a very valuable source of information. I am from Russia and I want to say that Thailand is not cheap comparing to my country. Price are about the same or even higher on most goods and services. So maybe Thailand is cheap for americans, but it is definetely not cheap for citizens of most other countries.

great info., thank you

Pattaya is a paradise for us the people who can work remotely/freelance, not even in South America which I'm from I can get a LUXURY APARTMENT for $400 per month in a building full of amenities with your only worries being the food and which gorgeous women are you gonna hang out with.

tanks for sharing

Great job , and you talk fast which I like .

Good Morning from Issan Temps, Pattaya is Pattaya😢 Its like it dont excist up here in the villages, i speak to locals and the majority know nothing about it. ive been many many times but my last trip in january will be the last. For me its lost its playtown factor, its always been about the money, but more so now... Only good for the Mongers now. lost its appeal unf...

Thanks bro. I liked your video. I've been to Bangkok and Phuket, not to Pattaya. Loved it. Loved Vietnam too.

Krabi is cool, head NE Thailand into the real Thai culture - peaceful, quiet plus you can chill with a beer or two,

Nice video.not many talks about the tropical climate.been there twice. But the heat can be too much. I think Chiang Mai has better climate for westerners. I hope you can make a video about the weather.thanks

17yrs for me in Asia, the hotter the better for me lol. Adapt to it pretty quick to be honest.

Never had a "dark side" other than the other side of Sukhumvit road, Pattaya. +1 😮

Thanks!

I am planning on going to Thailand in August , can’t wait ! The plane ticket pricing is much more than the hotel stay 😂 where u able to get to Thailand on a direct flight ? Atleast from where I’m at (Philadelphia) and the surrounding airports like in New Jersey and New York City , there are no direct flights . 23 hour flight minimum with 1-2 stops

All about the balance ⚖️ however not easy in Thailand, loads of other places to explore.

Super..

well said :)

Definitely cheaper, but not cheap. The sewer smell takes a bit to get used to.

How long u been living in Thailand?

Help me find a wife out there! I heard Soi 6 is a good spot for that.

How much is the weed there? Haven't gotten a straight answer from other vloggers, but hanging on the beach, smoking a fatty and renting a bed warmer one or two times a week sounds perfect!

If you live anywhere in the world and stay out of bars and restaurants life will be much easier.. Pattaya is a red light district so there is always going to be temptations 😂 wake up and smell the coffee mate

Thailand much cheaper the Cambodia. The Cambodia is so cheap is absolute scam.
