17 Reasons I Moved to Thailand (you Should too)

[@stevecartlidge8338]

Great video Mac. One thing I love is that no matter who you are or how you are dressed, you are welcome to all bars, restaurants and shopping malls. Whether they are cheap Charlie places or high class modern shopping malls, you will not be judged or frowned upon. This is certainly not the case in any western cities, especially the capital cities where you wouldn’t get within 10 meters of some restaurants or shops.

[@Michael-Rooney007]

Mac TV and Adam! 2 of the most awesome You Tubers in Thailand! Great video! Keep 'em comin'! Thank you!

It’s great to see you out of the clubs brother! Life has so much more to offer.

[@jay.b.]

I love your channel. This video is so helpful. Thank you Mac. 😊

[@Jay...777]

I know its obvious but its warm in Thailand all the time. F'ing freezing here in Europe. Just keep adding the layers till you feel like a Michelin man. T-shirt & shorts is a dream come true.

[@Bretaxy]

No it isn´t. There are cold seasons in Thailand, just like everywhere else.

[@Jay...777]

@@Bretaxy Define cold. -3C here in Germany right now.

@@Bretaxy Define your idea of cold in Thailand. What's so difficult about that. Minus 4C here right now. Does this ever happen in Thailand?

@Jay...777 Why don't you go to Thailand and ask any inhabitant if it gets cold there.

This video is brilliant , I’m 47 and would love to move to Thailand it looks amazing 👍🏻🇬🇧

Think its more those countries that better to visit not to live...alot thai people complain to me and want to leave...also no retirement pension. Good for westerner with bit of money i guess

good channel. I started to follow this channel as I wanted to see some hangover freak from Pattaya, but you're really cool, mate. good content, good attitude

[@MataiosWorldPattayaCity]

It's lads like yourself & Keis that have inspired me to leave Australia with a Suitcase of some clothes, my Sony Playstation & my Laptop. Paying 10,000thb for a resort Condo in Jomtien per month which is around $430aud, thats less than weekly rent in Australia! All valid points all legit, Thailand all the way! 🇹🇭👌

[@coreyworthingtonii9230]

Cost of living in Aus is fucked!

[@TheBloggme]

You can go way cheaper then 10k lol...bit of a waste imo. But how you will sustain yourself and gain visa for long term? I ask cuz i want to do the same

[@luisc2184]

Can you do a video on how to get a job there as a foreigner with no contacts or network setup, I think many people would benefit from this especially the folks from USA.

[@VibrantLivingLists]

Can confirm Thai friendly is the go to in Pattaya. You can have a roster lined up before you even land in country. Don’t ask how I know though

Hey Mac, and everyone else of course. Great video as per bloody usual Mac... good stuff, keep it up yeah. 💪👍 So, long time lurker, but I've come out of hiding now wanting to ask you what's the rock/metal scene like in Thailand in areas around Pattaya, Bangkok and/or elsewhere in Thailand. If I decided to go there, as a life long headbanger, which are the places to go, are there any good rock/metal festivals in Thailand worth visiting? Take care and all the best. 🍺🇸🇪🇷🇴🤘

[@mactvtravel]

I’m not sure about festivals but there is definitely a lot of bars that play live live rock music rock station on Soi buakhao and stones house in walking street are the 2 most popular in Pattaya hope this helps

Although it mite be said that because of the situation in Europe it has changed the dynamics of the place... Been going Jomtien/Pattaya since 1999 but high season now I will avoid that place... After discovering Thailand a Lot of us realize we were born on the wrong continent 😢😂... Was lucky enough though to meet a beautiful Asian woman who I married and keep me warm in Europe 😂🎉.. After this video though it's only going to get more busy.. I don't blame you one little bit... Get there while u can🎉

Are you available to buy camera and computer equipment easily?

[@mactvtravel]

Yeah very easy bro

[@nrz197]

I went to Japan in the 90s to work and I still live there. I personally believe Thailand is a great place to retire or go for a short holiday, but in terms of work I'm going to say Tokyo wins hands down in terms of opportunities with so many global companies based there. I would say it's a lot harder to forge a career in Thai/Bangkok. Youtubing is not for everyone. My 2 storied, 4 bedroom house is also way cheaper than keysies "bargain". A lot of restaurants I go to are cheaper as well. Thailand isn't as cheap as it used to be. Need to be earning a decent wage there to live well. Some people can do that but opportunities are limited.

6 months remaining on your passport did you mean?

[@danielcully6047]

​@@peterward9755 You are correct six months or less left on your passport, no traveling to different countries.

[@RickSancheZ-jc6zr]

Do you have any advice for bringing my small dogs? Moving in June

[@VibrantLivingLists]

Look into the return to your home country requirements. If you end up needing to leave you may end up ending your dogs before you leave. I know Australia has closed a lot of loopholes to get pets back into aus from Asian countries. And these loopholes are upwards of 80k Aussie per dog and take like 2 years in quarantine in various countries before coming back

[@VibrantLivingLists]

I’m waiting for my 2 to pass then I’ll be making the move over

[@Falconiac]

This is the first video I've seen where someone thinks getting a job in Thailand is a possibility. It's always seemed like you have to be retiring with a full stack because getting a job as an expat was impossible. Is it really that easy to find jobs as a foreigner?

[@mactvtravel]

@@Falconiac check pinned comment 👍

[@pj-vq3by]

what visa do you both live on??

I'm under 50 so I worry about the visa I can also claim a full pension in 10 years when I'm 52 so really torn but don't want to waste the next ten years here in England wishing my life away for a pension.

[@Surfrz3]

Thailand is an awesome country, and I love it. I think about returning every day, but I'm working and raising kids in Taiwan, which in comparison can be rather boring besides surfing and some nature activities. Everything you said about Thailand is so true. But just for some perspective, it's not always safe. Traffic can be dangerous, and there are definitely homicides. Let's not forget scams and some rip-off taxi drivers. Especially in places like Samui, where I've had my life threatened. So, be safe and careful wherever you are. 🙏🧡😎

Funny story i thought i saw you and your girlfriend, in Phuket..as the chap looked a lot like you, and seeing your girlfriend on your channel, the woman he was with from the back of her head looked like your gf also because of her hair streaks 😅 So i bought up one of your videos and was comparing for about 20 mins and staring 😅😅😅 without trying to make the guy uncomfortable and make it look blatantly obvious. I did note one difference and that was the fact that he didn't have his sleeve done like yourself. But everything else was on point, tunnels, hair, skin tone haha. Anyway i love your vids bro 🫶 was watching a lot of them when i was in Thailand 🇹🇭 I loved Pattaya.
