2 Hotels And 3 Meals In BANGKOK, THAILAND! 🇹🇭 2022

I was in the Carlton Hotel Sukhumvit in Bangkok and was about to move to another hotel called Hotel Mermaid, also downtown Bangkok. I came from India and the state of Kerala on a flight recently and needed to rest up a bit before I would start my travels again. I first came to the Suvarnabhumi airport and then took the skytrain in to town. In this video you will see some thai food and also a bit of what life is like in Thailand now. If you want to go to Thailand then you can apply for the Thailand pass Online.
You get the thailand pass visa that you apply for within 48 hours. It is a very easy process. All you need is a flight ticket to thailand, Vaccination, and an insurance that covers at least $10000 and also covers Covid 19.
You can apply for the Thailand pass here tp.consular.go...
Make sure to be vaccinated for covid 19, have a flight booked and return flight, as well as a legit international insurance. If you are not vaccinated you can also get a Negative PCR Test to submit on the site. In the coming videos I will be heading to Hua Hin, Chumpon, Koh Tao and maybe some other Island.

Hi William, a Canadian here. You have been wondering about your life and what to do in life. There will come a time when you will have to settle down, sooner or later. When I was younger, I always wanted to see the world pretty much the way you’re doing it. I have done many trips abroad but I always had to come back to my hometown for work. Work has not always been easy and yes, it sometimes gets monotonous. However, through you and thanks to KZbin, I am travelling in a virtual way. It makes me realize realize that the life I lived so far has been fulfilling. It has been the best way to live. There is no place like home with friends and family. I have also realized that every one on this planet is struggling to make a living. One thing is certain, I don’t know you much but you will never be able to work a 9 to 5 office job. There are many other interesting things you can do.

[@manuelochoa5065]

William I was there in Bangkok Thailand and love it. You’d be surprised how many people live vicariously thru you. You bring joy! 🙏🏻👏🙌

[@wl5609]

William, you're a silly billy, I love your antics in front of the camera even if you just stay in the hotel! I think you have found your calling, you're a comedic entertainer! My husband and I are currently travelling through Mexico for a year and then maybe we'll settle down. We are in our early 60's but got bored in Vancouver doing like you say, going to the same market, same gym. Traveling is the best, and I hope we can continue this for a while.. You're a great inspiration!..xx

[@judyrappley3129]

Hi William, You might want to check out Expat Lilly on KZbin. She is from New Orleans and lives in Thialand. She moved out of Bangkok. By the way as you get older you will find that friends and family become most valued. Like you said the travel is great for new adventures but after a while may become a blur. In the end its the relationships and people we love and love us that we most appreciate. Take care my friend!

[@johnfay9104]

The Pier 21 Food Court is on the 5th floor of Terminal 21 Mall. Really great food choices and inexpensive (100 to 200 baht). Lots of locals eat here. I get a foot massage every morning when visiting Thailand. 200 to 300 Baht. Great way to start the day. Enjoy!

[@troybabs]

Hey William, thanks for being you... I like it when you're being silly and playful. It's fun stuff and authentic. Cheers.

[@VoiceOfThe]

When he said “It’s really shallow here, about two feet deep...” did everyone speak out loud “Oh, my god”, in fear for him, knowing what was coming next? 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣

[@user-en9yc7mf8r]

Hello William,I am thai. I’m glad that you visit our country hoping you have fun and have a lots of yummy Thai foods. From your thoughts expressed, I would say when you are young with lots of energy.Go and find the wide world for accumulation of experiences,grabbing this opportunity while it exists.You have learnt a lots of things passing in your life while traveling.Finally, you will realize what’s the occupation that suits you.When the propriate time has come,you hold it. Starting your career and settling down with the love one and making a family with your own.When you look back with sweet memories,you have found in the past while traveling. You will not miss good things in your life.Life is short,enjoy your life.

[@peterfehr4612]

You give people what they can’t give themselves. Keep traveling. Life is only about experiencing it. Life is what happens. It doesn’t happen to you.

[@rumik-stahnke6512]

Glad to see you again with another great video from Thailand 🤗Such a beautiful view from the hotel and delicious food. Everything looks amazing. Good job my friend 👏😁Thanks for sharing and take care 👍😁😂✌

[@islandbee]

One of the best quotes that I always remembered was from the movie, Mississippi Masala. And that quote is: "Home is where the heart is." I think your choice of living minimally allows you to make anywhere in the world your home. It's great to be always a student in life because you're always learning something new. But, I agree with a week stay. Maybe even 3 days minimum might be a good step. Just so you can take time to smell the roses and learn to live like a local or pick up local secrets.

[@anahutchings7646]

Thank you William again for another one of your great videos, some pool tricks and silliness, comes out when your enjoying where you are, it would be a hoot to see Sven again, enjoy watching your videos. Come on 100k . 👍🏼😊❤️🌼

[@andreavanda5402]

I really like it when you share your thoughts William. I think you'll find your spot one day but you've got a lot of travel still left in you. I agree FREEDOM is the most important thing in life. I hope you reach 100,000 subs soon so you can start sharing your fitness tips. ♥️

[@lizcoleman5229]

Seems like a very clean city and the hotels are so nice and cheap!! You crack me up when you're acting silly! Looking forward to seeing more of Thailand!

[@dmssmd193]

Way to go William! Your videos rule! On ur way to 100k!

[@pippilongstocking-qs7fm]

You are very right about having too many things is a burden. Seeing the world while you're young & healthy is absolutely a blessing & fantastic choice, imo. I used to love to travel, but as I've gotten older, family and stability is very comforting. I sure enjoy watching all of your adventures no matter where you go

[@MrDanielpope]

William you are a trip,love your travels,you,re one of my favs,can,t believe you sometime,you have no fear of people everywhere,take care Bro,safe travels.

[@jijib7691]

Ultimately you have to do what makes you happy, but I personally can say I joined your channel for the travels, the laughs and the great videography. You're an artist and you have tons of energy so I'm not sure you would be able to quit this, but do what makes you happy :)

[@juliehartzog5094]

I lived in Thailand for three years, Krabi and phi phi are so beautiful ❤️

[@jessehorner4972]

Hey William! Thanks for singing along with the Thai music. Very funny! Please do more of this

[@sant2397]

Will pls go to the local street food markets!! Always a good time and good prices!!! U just cant go wrong! Check out the beaches that has lots of street food too!! Cheers!

[@edwardiannacone323]

Hi, William, have been a subscriber, since you started your podcast, my question is,why you don't have Maria from Texas on anymore,? Me and my girlfriend liked your shows with her in them, because she added more content, to your content in your podcast, Cheers

[@wvuinthehouse]

I hope you stay awhile. Love thailand. If you think Bangkok is cheap every place else in Thailand is cheaper except for Phuket. Good luck and watch out for the Ladyboys! Very enticing! LoL

[@nellycortez1077]

I love to watch your videos because you make us laugh. 😂you are so hilarious! what was that music you were listening to? 😂 Swedish?? 🤔 To see you travel is why we watch you William. We always try to guess where you will go next. Oh and those are Bean Sprouts you were eating. Take care my friend! ALWAYS looking forward to the next episode!

[@yycguy8722]

Hello William, would be amazing to see you find someone who can tour you around to areas that are unique and interesting to the viewers. Excited to see the amazing beaches of southern Thailand 🇹🇭 in your upcoming videos!

[@williamtaudien]

Yeah but I have lost interest in touring around cities. I'd rather just hang out and enjoy a bit

[@ltd1980]

My food recommendation would be Pad Krapow Gai. Minced chicken with holy basil. A fried egg on top of the rice. It's sensational and very cheap

[@Busybeeee]

I’m a vegetarian but I researched this dish so much. It’s so popular! Just tasting Holy Basil would be awesome, it’s impossible to find in my country☺️

[@chuy86]

Keep it up William...very nice of you sharing that experience in your travels!! Nice bro!! Saludos 🇲🇽🤠🇺🇸👋👋👋👋

[@pnwhiker4239]

I am jealous, I love Thai Food and you got me hungry for it lol 😂 I am also happy that you are finally out of India.

[@julieg447]

Thanks for the info and images on hotels, apartments, general first impressions of Bangkok 👍

[@deadairconversion]

Each time I view your videos I notice you're getting more subs. You'll get to 100,000 subs in no time. Cant wait to see some local culture. What country are you thinking about going to next? I agree, getting a room for a week or more seems less stressful and hectic. Give you more time to settle and focus. Safe travels bro!

[@diegolima5805]

Keep up the good work William, I enjoy your travels and your great sense of humor.

[@GabyPelayo]

The breakfast bean sprouts looked delicious. I'm glad to see you back in civilization (Bangkok). You're right, that it's nice to travel so lightly. Thank you for another awesome video experience. You are top notch.

[@jadynklassen6202]

1 week will be great. you can spend some solid time learning more about the place like that!

[@tortulas]

You are definitely a gypsy with your travels. Love that you share your life with us. Thank you for this.

[@marteanderson7963]

William traveling consume a lot of energy and putting down roots for a few months in a beautiful location with reasonable costs and leveraging your skills to make money as a digital nomad may be worth considering. The nomadic lifestyle will wear you down over time. Perhaps some changes are in order. Take care my friend.

[@rhondadami517]

I got to visit Bangkok one time and so I really enjoyed seeing the city again!!! So good!!!!

[@junebug3051]

You are hilarious William--I just love your humor!!!----You're a very classy person--Many blessing and take care!! Also enjoy the commentary from you on the places you visit--so informative and well done!

[@joelanning4322]

Hello my friend, even the most mundane things make good videos. This was very good. More adventures tomorrow.

[@jrd8526]

Love this area of Sukhumvit. The park across the street from where you ate the pad Thai is very nice place to relax in the mornings.

[@MrJdy18]

And another one!! Very good! And we like listening to you talk about your life dude. Glad you’re taking some time to chill out and relax. Can’t wait for the next one! 🤙

[@jwwj30]

Such a change from Mumbai to Bangkok…no more crowded, filthy streets with all the pollution. It’s such a pleasure to travel around our wonderful planet with you. I love watching you exploring different cultures, exotic locales, variety of foods & to see you smile & laugh no matter what obstacle life throws at you. As for reaching 100,000 subscribers, I’m predicting mid-May 2023. Thank you so much William for all the hours of entertainment & valuable travel information you & Maria have shared with me.

[@what163]

Thanks William, another adventure in another land we can join

[@pmg9892]

My wife and I love watching your videos. She says I have your accent down pat! You're a pretty funny guy with a great life philosophy. Keep traveling until you want to stop, and keep posting videos.. and come to Canada!

[@joelhenry4643]

William, to get over the 100K subscriber barrier you might try mixing things up a bit by trying a livestream and/or surveying your audience as to what type of material they want to see. I don't know how you could do that other than a livestream or simply asking them towards the end of your upcoming videos. Maybe their input and audience participation could lead to more subscribers. l don't know. . The documentaries in Mexico were outstanding.

[@kathytracy7952]

Thanks for showing me all the different parts of the world.

[@nancycook7377]

The massive amount of food for sale is amazing

[@Busybeeee]

Another great video! Those drone shots were fantastic! You really captured the grandiosity of Bangkok with its majestic architecture. I wish Thailand would allow a longer visa than 30 days! I could easily spend 2 months there living the good life! Love the Thailand series, thx William ☺️👌

[@eatswithtwofists2965]

Are they not extending visas? I'm going this week to extend mine, I hope 🙏🏾

[@mkskristoffer6337]

You get 30 days without applying for a visa witch you can extend for 30 more days. If you apply for a visa before enter, you get 60 days witch you also can extend for 30 more days.

[@Busybeeee]

@@mkskristoffer6337 that’s really great! You’re right.. I just read up and as a Canadian I can enter 30 days without a visa and no extensions allowed but if I apply for a visa I can stay up to 6 months ☺️I’m already planning my trip 😀

[@john0691]

William you are blessing us with so many videos recently stay safe and enjoy the Thai life hope to dee some scuba diving in upcoming videos.

[@mikey_atman]

The thin white vegetables are called Bean Sprouts. I love them, and they are high in vitamin C. Brussel sprouts on the other hand look like little round miniature cabbages. Happy trails man. 🤠

[@dannysmith8216]

i really want to visit thailand , so out of all the places you have been to this look like a good series , looking forward to all your adventures , especially pattaya and some of the islands :) , keep up the good work bro.

[@John-es7zn]

Great vlog,I was laughing so much....your very funny with great content of your travels....I'm now subscribed Keep up the great work you do 👍

[@eatswithtwofists2965]

Bro you had me cracking up in this one! Isn't Bangkok like a beautiful futuristic city designed perfectly! I'm stuck down in pattaya in a 1 month lease can't wait to get back to Bangkok! Then I'm gonna explore Phuket and Phi Phi! I feel you though on the 2 day stays, it gets rough. By the time I settle in and relax it's time to go again, can make me delirious haha. I like doing at least a week now too because gym members for a week aren't too expensive and you get to meet local people. I always train at 5 am or when gyms open because the elder people are there and they share the best wisdom on the area. I'm like you I get bored so fast in the same area it's like my brain knows there's too much to see and so little time before I want to settle down get married have kids! Almost 40 years old now and I feel ready, but America is in so much trouble economically it doesn't make sense to go home. I want to buy some land in Florida and raise animals and gardening and sell plants. I would go back to Texas where I grew up but too many California's are ruining Texas and I fear it will be nasty soon too. Also, do you not look for food before you walk out, like on Google maps nearby? I research everything before I even make reservations so I know it's easy walking everywhere, especially my gym

[@evagalarza3010]

Always good to see you and don't worry it's a good video. Good to see you reflecting on life. What you do is by no means easy and it's not for everyone we are just happy to go along vicariously with you. Stay safe always 🙏

[@mpower6004]

William said it right - the challenge is to find a place where we do not get bored or frustrated . The question is where is such a place , because I have not found it yet .

[@yvonneyuan7430]

It's really hard to give a definition when you ask “is this a typical Thai breakfast”，maybe in a Metropolis like Bangkok there are too much choices for breakfast，even the locals have ever thought about typical Thai breakfast

[@krisch13]

If you want to experience good Thai food with cheap price, I recommend to food floor at Terminal 21 and indoor floating market at Ground floor Icon Siam, both can access by Sky Train btw I subscribed your channel and looking forward to your next video in Thailand, stay safe and healthy

[@krisch13]

Here are things and places you can enjoy Bangkok 1. Lat Mayom Floating market 2. Bang ka Jao Bangkok Island 3. China town, Pahurat market and Sampeng market 4. Wat Arun, Wat Pho temple and dining with the view of Wat Arun on the Wat Pho riverside with many restaurants in the small alley 4.Benjakitti Park 5. Jodd Fair night market

[@brypar70]

I’ve been wondering- have you ever gotten food poisoning from any of the different foods you try and have you ever been robbed on the street on any of your adventures?? Thanks again

[@beauty-natured-Always]

William you had me cracking up 😂 tears running down. I love watching your videos. Thank you for being you. You and your sense of humour are unique. You are special 🤩👌

[@brypar70]

Best way to end the weekend - new videos from the Swedish Sheep 🐑- thanks my friend

[@andant8420]

William we love the videos! It seems like your sound volume is lower when compared to other KZbin video’s we watch.

[@ronskelly]

Really enjoying your videos... very funny and extremely well done! ...a suggestion. When you return to amazing Mexico create a job for 6 months to 1 year. Possibly with a bed & breakfast type establishment or hotel where you will take certain guests on adventures and continue to make videos of these excursions. Interacting with guests will make the videos even more interesting and you will be able to work from a home base for awhile. I see a tour boat as well in this scenario. You can set up arrangements with many tourist type businesses. Have fun...RonS from Wasaga Beach, Canada. World's longest freshwater beach!

[@Scolopente]

Come to Bansko! Stay a few weeks to chill out, meet some people. Maybe even use it as a base that you can come back to when you need to chill out and relax.

[@kyronwalsh]

I remember when I first subscribed, you were in Cancún with 23k subscribers… You’ve come a long way my friend!

[@ninguno141]

Sven has definitely taken over, at least the nights... LOL 😂

[@IcedFriction]

HI William, On friday 10-6-2022 Thailand legalized cannabis making it available to everyone locals and tourist, the fastest in history from death penalty to legal in 3 years and the only country in asia so far. Highland Café is one cafe in bangkok that is up the street from you, i know a lot of stoners watch your videos would be good content even if your not a smoker to have a take from your perspective.

[@curlbryant]

if you book airbnb for a whole month you get a huge discount, its a way to spend less and get some really nice places to stay

[@esequiel97002]

Hi William,I feel the same way sometimes, I think we often think about what it is that we're suppose to be doing in life.. I think as long as you're happy keep doing what you love, We sure appreciate your travel videos! Thank You music 🎶 Come along with me and I will ease your pain 🎶😆😂

[@thetruth3683]

" TAUDIEN TV " - Fantasy Locations, Reality Depictions - When I was your age I also was in Bangkok and then went down to Patong Beach, Phuket. You are such a great athlete, a great actor, a great filmmaker and super funny. One day a major TV producer will take all of your footage and create a TV series from it. Like STRIX in Sweden.

[@judithcawston3676]

Not a boring video at all interesting to hear all about you and how your travelling started We look forward to your next video We check U Tube every day looking for it

[@misscortez1759]

Wow the hotel is very reasonable Will. I’m glad you found a place quickly. That food looks delicious!!nom nom nom.

[@hivolco151]

If I were there in Thailand, I would be searching for Fresh food market and the BEST Thai Durian fruit possible.... I would buy one and some Limes and take it back to chill it with the Lime juice all over it.. YUMMY!!!!! Best Custard in Nature! :D I live part time in Oregon, USA.... Friends here from Thailand Do NOT miss it... Not sure why? They lived in a border town while there and apparently other nations were creating conflict so they Left. They like it here very much and make Thai food here. What most of us Search for is "meaningful" lives... Sometimes there is gratification by providing a service or doing for others what they cannot do... To Ease the suffering of other humans can be calming to your spirit... In many ways you are doing that here for those who Cannot travel for one reason or another... But the Deep meaning you desire in your life will no doubt involve relationships with other humans... Being Physically, Mentally, Spiritually Healthy involves many different things. BEST WISHES!

[@saratemp790]

Yes usually when a country is that cheap, its because of political problems. As a tourist you don't see the problems, but residents do.

[@IMStrawman]

I so admire you and your life! Your willingness to be free and live like the wind, but no home, no roots? I wish I could, but I couldn't do it!

[@stevep.1529]

Great video, thanks for sharing! I think moving every few days and even every week is far too stressful. That's why I always stay at least one month in any location I travel to. It keeps everything far more relaxed and the monthly rent prices are much better. I find there are always plenty of interesting things to explore in a city over the course of a month.

[@BTom16]

My wife and I are so happy you got out of India safely. We were a bit worried. Love your videos. Thanks for the excellent content.

[@flowflow14]

You travel for a reason William and that's because it has always made you have that freedom to learn/meet new people/grow and experience so many new things. We on the other hand, live this dream by watching you lol! i know it might feel too much for you sometimes, maybe consider Bali to settle down if ever needed for some time to take time out. Believe me its boring staying in one place! Carry on with your travels ! xx

[@lucydeantiguatarot8977]

Hi William, great xfile theme and gig going there...great video...

[@margaritainkster7470]

What do we want to do in life? This is a question that we all have at one point in our life. You are doing whatever you want, traveling, moving the excitement of the unknown, and more. Keep traveling, you are fit for this kind of life and when you want to settle you will know, perhaps finding your perfect partner. When and where? You will know, but do not wait long.....safe travels, Guillermo.👍🙏

They should have given you a cover for the coffee 5:50 . Otherwise it spills when you walk.

[@farmlife936]

Looks like a cool city! When you headed back to Mexico:-)?? We love your content! Stay safe broski!

[@condadodealhamahomes]

Well, I dont like to see too much of you shaving yourself... its good that you show what you are doing in the meantime to keep yourself in shape, i liked that, but the rest I am not so bothered about.. In Thailand you can really do a lot of cool things.. so it should not be that tough to make videos about it. If you feel that you are not motivated anymore, take some holidays to think about the right strategy to pump those videos out without getting tired about it. Good luck man!

[@swilhelm3180]

You should have looked for your place when you were out. You don't wait until you've left one place before looking for your new place! But you're in a nice hotel and they probably would let you leave your stuff with them while you spend the afternoon looking for another place. Another problem with waiting til the last minute is you are then walking around with your entire life on your back. Anyone with a weapon can take it from you. That's probably the main reason you never want to be wandering around with all your stuff or at least minimizing it. Obviously when you arrive in a new city there's not much you can do except leave your bag at an airport locker but most airports are far from where you'll be staying so that's rarely done. You need a home base in an area that is very popular with tourism so there's lots of curiosity about your video subjects. The Philippines blows Thailand away when it comes to underwater scenery and but people are curious about both though Thailand is quite a bit more popular (because people don't realize how great the Philippines is. Plus almost everyone there speaks decent English. Notice how many people don't understand hardly anything you're saying in Bangkok? Well it will be much worse away from the city unless you're in a tourist trap. Vietnam and Cambodia are also great places as well. And a LOT cheaper than Thailand. You could probably live for about $100-200 a month in cheap countries like that. Both have stunning beaches and very welcoming people. And the women are spectacular as well, without nearly as much of the rampant prostitution of Thailand and the Philippines. When you get tempted just think of the sexually transmitted diseases. That should control you well. :) Realize that almost every single girl sitting outside those bars is a prostitute and has been porked by hundreds, if not thousands of men, men that would sleep with pretty much anything with 2 legs. HIV is not pretty. And condoms break. Its just not worth it at all, not even close. After the orgasm men think, "I risked so much for just that???". Yeah they did. The GoPro quality is great. I bet you can relax so much more without the expensive camera. The only thing you might want to do is try to rig up a good wireless mic system for the GoPro that is not in your way and mostly hidden. Audio on the GoPro is not so great. That's its real weakness, otherwise its great. I'm sure Rode makes some good wireless mics.
