Richy Parkinson

Join me as i set off on a never ending adventure. I'm escaping the hamster wheel of the west, I'm getting to old to keep peddling to pay the bills for the odd holiday here and there, only to return and peddle harder to make up for it. Be a fly on the wall and see the raw footage of costs, accommodation, people, markets, the culture and of course the street food as i make my way through as many countries as possible.

    I have one kislux bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...

Like anywhere you go in any City in the world there will always be people begging, it’s unfortunate to put it mildly but I think donating to the people that need it most is the best way.

    I noticed in your last few videos you were spending more money than previous videos. Budget travelling is fine for the short time. But it's not sustainable in the long term. You went from making some decent videos, to endlessly walking through markets and doing little else. Although I expect a few beers were had on the side. Travelling with little money is no fun and totally boring after a while. At least you did it and lived to tell the tale.

    Theres always shipping there... as its one of rhe Thai major Military Naval bases nearby. Your 100% righr the street food on KohChang is not good. Bwcause rhe actual Thai ppl use a market In the inland away from Tourists on the island or rhey commute from Muang Trat where the food is excelent. yep! u got it right again. SiRacha is a cool place to live. I used to live on the edge of Chonburi (near Ninja Market) would love riding to SiRacha and Baeng Saen. Choice places to live in Thailand. Close to everything (bkk chonburi pats Chachoengsao etc). cheap like Essaen (almost) and got beach. you know those prices for socks are just 'sugestions' 😅 right?

    Also there is horrifically an epstein island not far from Koh Chang... the rich fly in on planes... it has an airfield and is protected by the Naval base. Its also ambiguous as to wether its khmer or Thai... wwhen it comes to Disgusting rhings rhey blame it on Khmer but its not... its Thai. Its well known to the locals and you will be most likely intercepted by coast guard should you try and land a boat there. Some serious Epstein bad shiz going down there.

    Lived in Trat for 2 years (lived siam for 7years) love the place. Wish i knew u were there I would have told u some hidden spots. Believe it or not the beaches are better in Trat (in rhe boonies of Trat). Would always head to Koh Chang & other idland for party. Unfortunately the water visibility is often not good for diving but other than that its a frkn gold mine to stay. Next time stay in Trat and go on bike rides via google maps to some of the off road beaches. Thanks for your videos.

    There must be a load of Squatters in these abandoned buildings. I know in BKK the emptt buildings near the tourist hot spots are full of them eg khosan building sites.. lot of fun talking to the squatters in them... unlike squatters in my own country... (they meet ppl like me😊). Best have a beer mate before u go from Richy Parkinson to Rickety Parkinsons! Just so you know they are not prawns. They look similar but they have very nasty 'blades' on the sides of the head. They do not taste the same as prawn but have a unique crustacean taste different from prawn crab crayfish and lobster. They are nasty little things to handle live. I am unsure of their khmer name I am sorry as I only know them by the Thai and Aussie name. Aussie: Thumb Splitter.

Not of course comprehensively,by any stretch,but a lot of thais' I have witnessed appear to conform to a view without malice,but that mental or physical disabilitys are somehow the result of bad karma,brought on by some misdeeds in a previous life.
