Cost Of Living Touring Thailand for Four Months

[@sstanding4267]

Thanks for the budget info Richy... I've been watching you from your start in the UK and I'm in the process of selling up all my stuff (I'm British but lived in Los Angeles for 30 years) and I will be following in your footsteps soon so your budget advice is extremely useful... I just wanted to let you know that you inspired me with your upbeat, polite, respectful and realistic take on traveling... Keep up the good work mate...

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you so much that’s really good to hear. Good luck with the move and if I can help with any advice please feel free to message me anytime✈️

Cambodia is pretty safe theses day there's the odd bag snatch in phoem phenn. I walk everywhere while there never had a problem. Keep videos coming on budget travel there very good.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks mate, yeah it’s ok here. Funny not seen any police, loads more coming up mate always budgeting👍🏻

[@gregorythomasfitness]

How fantastic, Richy! I'm going to have to catch up with your videos this week. Enjoy Cambodia, mate!👍

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Greg👌🏻

Much appreciated Logan

[@RichardStephens-mp7rc]

rich roughly you were spending about 1000 to 1100 baht a day all in. But for that money mate look what you've seen and done. Now bearing in mind that you've got to have good WiFi to keep giving the information that you're channel brings, if someone didn't have to think about that then realistically it could be cheaper. My council tax, my water ,electricity, gas bills probably aren't far off that, and I haven't even left my house. Rich again mate ,I'll keep spreading your word mate because there is another world out there, its refreshing buddy

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Most definitely Richard, finding good Wi-Fi and rooms I can work in has been a pain at times. I could of found accommodation for half the price. Thanks mate.

Very interesting (mildly confusing with all the currencies) Try learn how to edit in a pop up window popping up with a currency exchanger 💱 every time you mention a price 🤓 Good job on the budget

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you, in the description I put in all the currency exchanges. I mention prices a lot, if I put it in a window it would be many many times👍🏻

[@smurfhits5688]

​@@ParkinsonRawI'll get my calculator ready for the next video then 😅

[@ParkinsonRaw]

@@smurfhits5688 ha👍🏻if I was doing two or three vlogs a week then it wouldn’t be a problem. Doing daily vlogs is already an enormous pull, for me to spend more time editing it would be impossible. My daily tasks are travelling, researching, vlogging, editing and then the most time consuming is uploading. I’m sure you understand, if I put the exchanges in the description its not such a chore for everyone

[@smurfhits5688]

@@ParkinsonRaw I get you. I've followed many new channels just like yours and many of them grew up to 100.000+ viewers I think they send away their videos for editing so much money they are making. hope to see you up there one day so you can relax and enjoy the journey. I love to see the bare minimum budgets you are doing tho because that's where I am on my pension so I'm just dreaming away through your videos 📸 Keep it up 💪🏽

[@ParkinsonRaw]

@@smurfhits5688 you never know one day mate, if the channel really grows I’ll probably cut it to five a week and spend more time learning and editing to bring a better experience for you. Thank you mate I really appreciate you watching and the comments are great for the growth of my channel. I was a builder back in the UK and knew absolutely nothing about technology, I’ve come on leaps and bounds in just over three months since starting.

Have a nice day 🤗😊🫰❤️🎉🎊

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks, you too❤️😎👍🏻

[@rogermanifold8615]

Hi Ricky, do you need a onward ticket when you arrive in Thailand? I'm making plans to visit and thought I'd heard someone say over 50s don't need onward tickets?

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Roger, I’m 48 and I’ve been over the border many times. I’ve never been asked, if I did I would say I’m leaving by land.

[@cabovermike]

Uk expenses creased me when i was in TH for 7 months, uk mortgauge/gas/electric/phone/council tax/water rates/house insurance/car tax/car insurance/motorbike insurace/food shopping/bank charges /internet/home serve/tv license/cats protection charity/post code lottery/came to nearly £1000 p/mnth,. put all my thai expenses on top of that and its dear job, i,m planning on moving to TH full time and i cant wait to cancel all those uk bills ,. £1000 p/mnth is all my state pension GONE !, i feel like you Ritchy, being dragged down, the uk dosent even make it easy to get your pensions, ive 4 years defered uk govt pension and 10+year workplace pension and a personal pension to draw, .i'll be taxed on those to if i want lump sums,.Life and living aint cheap unless your names Richy !,...

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It’s never ending mate, I felt like I was walking in circles all the time back home. Money goes no where because your paying out in so many different directions. But like you say when it comes to getting money back they make it a constant struggle all the time. I had to get away my head my spinning. Life is so much more simple over here.

[@bluesatsuma.]

Are you from Teesside Richy?

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Very close, Darlington.

[@bluesatsuma.]

@@ParkinsonRaw Ah okay.. I couldn’t quite pin down the accent.. I was born in Stockton.. 👍

[@ParkinsonRaw]

@@bluesatsuma. Just a hop, skip and a jump away. I think we talk a little bit faster than Stockton and Boro. Where are you living now?

[@bluesatsuma.]

Been in southern Spain since 2010.. hoping to be living in Thailand within 2/3 years all being well.@@ParkinsonRaw

[@YomijnMe]

I understand what you sayd about West income; Yeah so many agency is opened in europe to just a get debit income, so it's good idea to rent house and travel, respect for price list

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It really is mate, renting your house could supply most of your budget👍🏻
