Relationships in Thailand are easy, keep them short time!

Great values will surely steadily sustain us over the long term. Cheers..you did it !

Outstanding All Around

Why I moved out of Bangkok: tired of sitting in traffic jams, black feet when wearing flip flops, people putting their dogs out to poo in the side streets so they are full of dog poo, pollution, costs, and city people not as friendly as country people. Sounds like I am complaining but I did stay over 10 years and did have a wonderful time.

I just moved to Thong Lor area. For me it's a perfect balance, but a little pricey. I tried living in the Nana/Asoke area but it became too intense for me.. you need to find the neighborhood that fits you, there's so many options for every lifestyle.

If living in Thailand is difficult for ya, you ain't doing it right.

Yeah I love Benjakitti on a nice day!

Koh Kood in low season having just returned,........a lot of places and amenities in the resorts are closed (i.e on-site convenience shops, room service) dining hours are also restricted to around 8pm for last orders. If the weather is poor there isn't a great deal to do it is also one of the most sparsely populated islands so on the flip side very little traffic and it is a paradise.

Koh Kud is amazing, I'm not really into the island's, so only booked Koh Kud for 4 nights, big mistake. You'll love it.

12:56 rumor has it that new government in a year or so will allow you to bring your MR2 into Thailand under new rules - only 100% import tax and weekend only registration. So we will see what happens with that. I do Porsche, have a few great ones over here in California, I’ll move full time to Bangkok soon (I hope). I’d hate to leave all my cars at home and buy a lesser car for more money in Thailand but that is the curse of car addiction. Otherwise you can buy a low cost car in Thailand and modify it - like Chad’s car. Everything is cheaper in Thailand except the cars 😢

Korea is great I go for work sometimes in the Myeongdong area as its the printing district as well as the high end district. Its a great place to visit a bit expensive but work pays so doesnt matter. Thailand is better for me even though Im a aussie expat in KL.

If you want to buy a Hilux, please wait until the new version comes in a few months. Completly new developed and hybrid and full EV available. Also the 2nd hand prices will drop. The current model has just an old fashion 5 gear automatic.

Koh kood was my favourite island in January I went. Incredible uncrowded beaches lined with palm trees. Awesome spot if you want to chill and disconnect

Having travelled around the world and lived in various countries, I can say as a Brit, being overcharged is a thing and not just Thailand. This will happen to most Westerners. It is certainly not on every item and happens occasionally. I would be interested to know if other Asians in Thailand also get overcharged ? Love your video style, keep it.

I have lived and worked in 20+ countries. If you are an expat, you are a foreigner by definition especially when you look different. In Africa and even in Italy, I was often seen as a "mark" same in parts of South America I was at risk of being kidnapped..We Western foreigners are considered to be wealthy, technically we come from wealthy countries. Being a "farng" is in my view not unique to Thailand, I never feel unsafe in Thailand (unless I am on a motorcycle). I do agree the traffic in BKK was better during COVID-19 days. ; ) Hope you find the perfect spot. Keep up the good work.

Leaving your keys with your motorcycle is just asking for trouble. What's the point? How hard is it to put your keys in your pocket? Things are better than they used to be; that's partly because of cameras being everywhere, but things do get stolen here. A helmet of mine got stolen. Luckily, it was just a cheap one. I had a friend whose motorcycle was stolen from the parking lot of the building he lived in. There was a guard posted 24/7 and he didn't leave the keys with the vehicle. That means the thieves came in with a pick-up truck and lifted the bike onto the bed. The guard on duty was fired, and my friend received some compensation from the building owner, but it took months to get it straightened out.

True about being taken advantage of. Another creator explained how he was on his motorbike when an underage Thai kid tried to overtake a truck by riding into oncoming traffic and crashed straight into the creator's bike. Not only did the creator have to repair his own bike, but also the kid riding the wrong way bike as well. And too add, the repair shop that fixed the kids' bike made sure to jack up the repair costs.

Sorry but learning the local language where you live should be a must. Of course not fluent but still put in some effort. It’s also not about being if you need it or not cause „people speak English“. You learn the language of the country you live in to also show some respect and get immersed in the culture. Unfortunately people who have English as their mother tongue are very lazy with languages but at the same time demand everyone to speak English at their home.

I'm with Brett Dev on the subject of learning Thai - just learn the basics because if you get fluent you'll know what the locals are moaning about.
