Broke, Drunk, Expat Life in Thailand.. what a $100 a month really gets you..

[@thenakedguru]

Just for a bit of background, I really was abit of a bum at this point out of choice, and I mean this in a respectful more kerouac style, I lived on about $720 a month which 15 years ago went a long way. Actually these were some of the best times of my life, which goes to show happiness and money dont always go together.

Great to see a bit of Kanchanaburi. I agree Ryan, it is underrated. I actually think it's one of the most beautiful natural areas of Thailand.

[@Paul-wu5qy]

What a great moment in time to share with your son Ryan!

[@vogel431]

Super you're spending time with your boy. An important time for his and your development. Best wishes!

[@jimcraiggeezer]

I stayed at the jolly frog in the late 90s.. lovely place. Remember the disco boats cranking out very loud music all the time.

[@JimJimmma-u1t]

Loved seeing this vlog spent a year in kan over the last 2yrs great quiet place with friendly locals. The first dispensary you showed the vlog (lowland) are actually Phuket cup winners and have a lot of influence in the underground scene in kanchanaburi I’m surprised to see it is for rent. Love seeing the content you post Ryan please keep it up :)

[@chinesecrested9528]

My wife's father worked in the government forest service as an ecological. 11 years ago, we stayed at the forest service office on many weekends. It is very chill and affordable and away from a bit of chaos.

[@Cantfindahable]

Another lovely story, I’m happy your fairytale romance worked out, Too much weed shops! Weed culture is just not a good thing, it was better when you just got some from the villagers and the smoke wasn’t everywhere

[@richardevans3801]

I've enjoyed going back to places I've lived decades ago and walking around having a beer or coffee seeing how things have changed, maybe meeting someone who still remembers me .❤

[@rafaelcastillo2636]

Sawadee Kra! Priceless bonding with your son. He will remember for ever. Ka Pun Ka for sharing your life. Mabuhay

[@OpCrownVet1]

It's a good job you changed your lifestyle Ryan, you don't look too healthy in those pictures back in the day. You're a lot healthier looking now. Great to see your relationship with your family, it's precious and something I missed out on.

[@graemeaylward8313]

Isn't it great to look back on your memories by visiting the old haunts. Before I left UK I visited all the houses that I had ever lived in from Childhood to the first house I ever owned. None of them had changed much and I was able to explain some mysteries t the current owners in two of the houses. Interesting for Otis too although he will probably remember the hotel with a pool more. Great location right on the river and very cheap to, which is what I always try to find 650 baht a night is very reasonable. I think that we might well take a trip down that way early next year. Thanks for sharing Ryan, God bless you and keep you both safe as you travel around. 😀❤🙏

[@lecannet]

Otis is such a cute name! Like Milo n Otis? ❤ the old pics r so nice of u 2! You're a great, happy match❤

[@teresap1172]

What a beautiful place. I will definitely be visiting and staying a bit at the Smiling Frog. Beautiful. Ideal location.

[@wendy-0101]

❤👍🏻That so great for you to be able to show Tis your old haunts & where Mummy & Daddy fell in love❤✨💞💞

[@molonlabe9602]

@10:33 I've stayed at the Tamarind a few times.

[@hellokitty-h2x7s]

thank u I stayed at the Sugar Cane you walked past it was like 20 years ago. stayed on there river raft rooms on the river. I think it was like 4 pounds a night or something. there was a veranda that you sat on surrounded by lotus flowers was so pretty. I remember the party boats going up and down. was beautiful place and never forget it. they also had food stalls at night you could eat but Sugar cane had really nice food. was a lovely burmese I think they said they were from Burma family that owned it. They made you feel at home with there little children running around. hope u enjoyed it.

[@jlf2221]

Nice trip! Good to see you and Tis about. One city I never got to see long ago 1974-75…

[@graguitar6493]

Great town to visit but I can't live without the beach but been twice to Kanchanaburi and loved it for the 2 times I stayed there

[@marglewis7652]

I'm enjoying your trip down memory lane as much as Otis❣he's a great travel companion

[@Jpankam]

Love this video. I like it when you stay with Otis.

[@warrenpugh3182]

Wow. I stayed at Noble house and had lunch at the Frog 🐸 place in April. 3 nights. ANZAC DAY. Loved it. Only One thing was the water in the pool gave my kids and I a itchy rash unfortunately. Breakfast was included at another nearby hotel. Fantastic location in Kanchanaburi.

[@andrewhyland9212]

Nice guest house, value for money with a garden like that to enjoy and on the river. You chose well.

[@lillianrosbottom7366]

What a brilliant video ryan . Happy days and memories. Lovely memories with otis

[@shuuyakano1732]

Driving yourself either by car or motorbike is the easiest way to get around Kanchanaburi town. Tourists for me who don't have vehicles in town can get a lift on orange and yellow songthaews (covered pickup trucks) anytime from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., and motorbike taxis and tuk tuks also are available. Makes me explore more around Kanchanaburi to understand more about the history and the updating but the most I liked is the original local history before upgrading with my dad.

[@stephencoombes5415]

Great Stuff :) Magical place and good to see it hasn't been spoilt like so much of Thailand

[@StaffanLiback]

Yes. Those birds comes back if you feed them. They can also learn to talk a bit. Lots of them here in Kanchanaburi.

[@mrmichael972]

I stayed in that same room at the Frog--#15--about five weeks ago. Nice video.

[@specialized500]

Steer clear of boats if you get that effect on a canal ! Interesting video it's a nice cheap area to hang about by the river .

[@amyjoforaker3655]

Otis having fun!

[@nwils6944]

A lad I met in Sakhon Nakhon from Bristol called Dan, he used to spend a lot of time staying at The Frog around the same time as you.

[@stevejohnson5359]

My favorite place in Thailand. Spent many a long week end up there from the madness of Pats. Mate (RIP) had Ting Tong Tony bar and a few other mates had bars. All changed. Nam, his ex, still owns Ting Tong Bar oposite Knoble House. Miss it big time. My best experience was ANZAC day. Bet I know a few of your teacher mates. Will be back soon!

[@joemann2178]

I will have to take a trip to Kanchanburi, add it to my list!

[@michaelj2528]

Always interesting and informative entertaining

[@paulwooster3590]

We stay for 3 days, sounds like you got the hard word Dad. Cheers!!

[@nyciron]

That was “ Side Trip life “ bird , this is great you traveling with Otis

[@Paul_in_Thailand]

An area I want to definitely visit. Lived in Issan last year on £700 a month very comfortable, good food, rented house etc and took care of the missus but we don't drink often

[@thenakedguru]

yes $1000 will do you well in isan and not drinking, back in these days70% of my money went on hooch :)

[@Paul_in_Thailand]

@thenakedguru same when I worked in America for a year 20 years ago. Spend everything I earned on partying with American girls LOL

[@Steve-w5c]

Bangkok is full of weed shops and they are not small. We have a house in Nong Bua and very few weed shops here thank god.

[@ONELIFEONEKITCHEN]

Very Good show .Ryan. i enjoyed Watching

[@KimWright-wq8cu]

AWESOME VIDEO RYAN 🤗👏👏👌🎉🎉

[@reddog4514]

Looks like you had a blast a few years back 🎉 . I wish I made it to Thailand and stumbled across a little balcony gig👌

[@fredmidtgaard5487]

3:26: It is a Mynah, Beo, Gracula religiosa. A wild bird

[@graemeaylward8313]

It is an Indian Hill Mynah, often caught and kept for their amazing mimicry including speech.

[@bobwelo]

Good video today.

[@mythai9593]

I think the Jolly Frog has lost a bit of its charm since its been refitted. Pity i'm not there at the minute you would have been welcome to call in for a coffee, i live near the end of the train line at Namtok. Nice idea to show Otis were you used to hang out 👍

[@garystaff3617]

Buityfull place 🎉

[@jlf2221]

Actually love your Comment too…

[@benhogan4739]

NG have a stupid question for you or anybody…are there wild tigers in that province where you started?

[@thenakedguru]

I believe there used to be here in Kanchanaburi but not anymore 🙏

[@benhogan4739]

@ Like, say what you will…am avid golfer, and love Thailand, want to golf the entire country. Greatest fear is encountering a wild tiger on the course. I take it seriously as a westerner, although not many courses in that area.

[@Galvoflysoz]

​@@benhogan4739too few tigers to worry about mate.

Nothing opens in Thailand until after 11 am, even then the workers stagger in well after

[@Milo-UK]

The question is, how many MSTR shares per month do you need to live there?

[@thenakedguru]

currently less than 1! :)

[@mr.critic]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@Milkyway109]

I worked at a zoo in Kanchanaburi and 650 baht is nearly £15

[@fredmidtgaard5487]

Nice, but I prefer a more local cultural place. I don't think Thailand is a place for that? Africa certainly is. Love it there in East Africa.

[@jimcolless6931]

Off you pop then

[@reggie5495]

What exactly is a "more local cultural place'?

[@finesoul677]

Do you even know what culture is Fred? Obviously you haven’t got a clue.

[@galdessa1]

Thats the good thing about East Africa, no back packers. Tourists only come for the safaris. Beautiful beaches with no tourists, the local places are so cool. and the weather is not humid.

[@Galvoflysoz]

Well obviously you haven't been there have you.

Are you paying tax in Thailand from your KZbin channel???
