Exploring Bangkok's Cultural Gems (More Than Just Nightlife)

[@joyoleary473]

I love seeing the love between you two. This is my favourite travel vlog. Ye are hilarious and are making wonderful videos! Thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Joy, that's such a precious comment, thank you. Really appreciate those kind words 🥰🥰 heart warming to read 💗

[@chimaknits]

I will probably never make the trip from Canada to Bangkok. But, being able to “vibe” with you sharing all these nieces places you’ve been was really cool. Thanks for sharing your trip ! Oh… and the music choices throughout the video was awesome.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thankyou so much 🥰🥰 glad you got to experience it with us 😊 Such a cool city!! Ps. Thanks for the music compliment 🤩 we spend a stupid amount of time trying to find songs that fit the vibe lol.

[@Iceyfire12]

Should go exploring Asia one day even when you are soon to retire etc. and add Bangkok to your list!!!

[@ThaiStyle]

Welcome to Thailand

[@phillyandkeely]

Thankyou 🥰🥰 We love Thailand ❤️🙏

[@RollingRoutes]

So so lovely to see you happy again! Looks like it was 100% what you needed. Loved this video, sent me right back to the hectic thailand that I love! Well done lads xx

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks guys 🥰🥰 glad you enjoyed the video and brought back the memz!

[@carolbarker1329]

You two make me feel happy even if it is raining! Beautiful scenery. You seem so much more relaxed now. Keep posting these wonderful memories for us.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Carol 🥰🥰 yes I feel sooooooo much better now. Things had definitely taken its toll on both of us mentally recently with the van and this just feels incredible ❤️❤️❤️

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Great vid! You gotta love Bangkok ❤️

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks guys!! And also thanks for all the vegan tips on your video, gave us a lot more confidence to eat out. First couple days we were a bit whimpy after an accidental meat (never spat a bite back out quicker in my life 🤣) and fish sauce situation haha. Gotta love Bangkok indeed ❤️

[@MoonRiverTravels]

Well, you guys certainly know how to rise above, and over, adversity! Even when Mother Nature is literally pouring down, your spirits blaze and shine right through! 🤘🏻🔥 You're both looking so much happier, and clearly feeling positive vibes. More power to you! Love the vlog, and cant wait to see the next one! 💛

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much 🥰🥰 yeah we feel all the vibes have to say, this feels really really good for us, I'm so glad we listened to ourselves and took a break from the van. Excited to share more with you guys, just so pumped that next week we will be making it to Tokyo woop woop!! We are soooo excited about Japan!

[@MoonRiverTravels]

@@phillyandkeely best news I've heard all week! Breathe deep and enjoy guys, let your souls heal and the good times roll! Massive love 💛

Ah, brilliant. Enjoy x

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Denise 🥰🥰🥰

[@upwards771]

You guys look so much happier and healthier. You really needed this. So glad you got there in the end. Last time we were in Bangkok it rained so heavy the polka dots on my poncho imprinted themselves onto my skin lol I was really freaked out at first, didn't understand where these Red spots came from, thought I was diseased haha. That cat looked really healthy! The wall art was epic.

[@phillyandkeely]

Love that your polka dots imprinted 🤣🤣🤣 yeah I really can't describe how good this break has been for my headspace. I was completely and utterly burnt out emotionally, and It's crazy how much time and space from stressful situations can heal you. So excited to show Japan aswell after Bangkok. Absolutely crazy to think we are back here, didn't know if we ever would be, so grateful doesn't even begin to cover the feelings we have right now.

[@Debs785]

[@byromtaylor6482]

One of the first videos without tears ....guess she really needed the break from van life....enjoy

[@phillyandkeely]

Yeah we had quite a few videos in a row there where you could see me mentally unravelling over time haha. Year before that no tears at all, but it all piled up so heavy by the end. Now I feel so light it's incredible. I will be strong enough to take back on any troubles that come our way now, but I really needed the break from vanlife for sure 💪

[@byromtaylor6482]

@@phillyandkeely yep all good and hope you are right but its the human element that makes your videos stand out in my opinion. so something good comes from something bad in a weird way ...I mean other dimular channels just show happy days and smiles n new places and they get a bit dull but yours make me go through a range of emotions watching ....I hope you have a few less issues of course as you ha such a run of bad luck and I hope everything is better but just get the feeling you gunna return to Romania and find someone has sold your van on e bay....(JK)

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Byrom ❤️ Haha wouldn't surprise me to be honest. But thankfully with tracker and CCTV we will have to go on a rescue mission to save Martha hahaha. Maybe I should ask guy for regular photos haha. I'm really glad you feel the range of emotions with our channel, that's what we want to share, real life in all its messy glory, so that comment means a lot to us 🥰

Cool video this week. Show us more of Thailand.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Paul! We thought Thailand was just like a holiday on our way to Japan but now we are positive we need to come back and explore this beautiful country more in the future. Two weeks doesn't even do Bangkok justice never mind the rest of the country lol. Some day we will defo be back to explore the mountains in the north and the islands in the south. Looking forward to sharing Japan with you all when we get out there after Bangkok 🥳🥰

[@joylord6852]

Hi guys love watching you enjoying yourself my son said they’re still in Covid recovery they got hit really bad. My son also said that when he goes there he eats from street food markets and eats lots of bags of fresh fruit apart from loving it it’s really cheap. I just love seeing what you are doing keep having lots of fun be safe. Lots of Love and prayers safe travels Joy 😊🏝🦋💖🦮

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Joy. Hopefully you recover soon from it 💗💗 sending lots of love and healing vibes

[@Aaron-P]

That looked a proper deep dive experience! 😱 I was feeling Philly's over-stimulation on the party street, but I am as old as the Aristocats, so take that into account. 😉 The temple looked so serene. Loved the buildings and shrines. Most of all, loved seeing you two smiling having fun! ❤️❤️😎👍xx

[@phillyandkeely]

Haha Aaron, I remember that you are as old as the aristocats lol! Yeah this place has been incredible and so good for us, we feel so much better and more relaxed now 🥰 excited to share more of Bangkok and then TOKYO! Can't believe we will be in Japan this week woop

Great video. OMG the food looks so good. Two of my children have recent gone vegan for health reasons. The assortment of fresh veggies looked delicious. I love your accents by the way. lol

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Alysianah 🥰🥰 Hahaha, I think our accents are rough lmao, but I'm sure everyone thinks that about their own voices. Yeah we felt so much better in our bodies after becoming vegan, two weeks trial became four weeks, became five years and now probably life. I know it's not for everyone, but it works really well for us 🥰 I hope it is working for your children too ❤️🙏

I hadn't heard of it. We loved our time in Indonesia (many years ago) such a beautiful country, so much more to see there. If we ever make it back we will have to add Gorontalo to our itnerary ❤️

[@Chloeaillud]

Ahh loved watching this! I was there about..9 years ago, such a cool place, like nowhere else! When I was there some guys I was working with recommended Koenji for vintage clothing and thrift stores, its quite a way out of the city, and was a lot slower paced but literally full of vintage stores! There is also a hotel at the Shibuya crossing, I cannot remember the name but a friend gave me the tip that if you go into the lobby and take the lift to the top floor (I think it was the 70th?!) you get an amazing view of the crossing! You aren't really meant to just go in, but nobody seemed to mind when we did :D so could be worth a try. Look forward to seeing more of your travels!

[@phillyandkeely]

We were just at Koenji a couple days ago, it was so cool, great recommendation!! Will have to check this hotel at Shibuya!! Great shout. Really appreciate the advice ❤️❤️ and so glad you guys enjoyed the video ❤️

Whoohoo, wow, loved watching. Every aspect of a place I may never see in my lifetime. Thank you for bringing us along. I would agree about going to the place near ye to eat,best with what ye know and close by. That temple was so beautiful,perfect timing. When ye were on the boat trip home,I thought similar to all you said, this is unreal where ye are now,plus that night view alone, was worth the trip to old town. Stay safe you two amazing young people. Keely my hubby sometimes wears socks too ha ha, and sure if it works why not. Happy adventures, can't wait for the next video.

Hi guys. There is so much to see. I’m taking quite a few views of this one. …and then to hear a Beatle song in the midst of it all. I agree the bldgs are absolutely gorgeous.What are the temps? Looks pretty humid. So weird in all of that traditional architecture to see a Roman Cathedral. Heard that promise of a foot rub. On camera.😂😂😂❤️ ps love the music as always!

Thanks so much Cassandra. I think on the day of the temple it was 78%humidity, temp of 31 with 'real feel' of 38.

Well I'm glad you're having a great time . I hate getting my socks wet . Top of my shit list wet socks . Everything is beautiful , they sure can build a statue . I'd be scared 😱 of all the food . I think they've got all those wild cats breeding so they can catch and use as a substitute for cow . You notice how they keep them all fat . Good thing you're vegan . Did Philly get his donut ? I think you two are really happy about that motel room . I thought you'd just buy a cheap tent there and rough it . Philly is really spending the money on all the amenities for his lady . What a guy .

[@phillyandkeely]

Yeah wet socks are the worst especially when you only have three pairs and the other two are still wet haha. Yeah thankfully we are vegan so no risk of eating cat accidentally ahaha. Philly never got his donut lol everywhere is shut. No tent life for us in Thailand, who knows what might happen in Japan, but Thailand is our rest and recovery time, no tents involved haha.

5555, a tourist is vomiting . Let's instead belittle the smell of the local market, of the two that is what we find odd. #firstworlder Bangkok is reportedly the most visited city in the world.

Consistently said how awesome this place is and never belittled it. I am very sensitive to the smell of seafood, weather it's in a fancy supermarket in a 'first world' country or a local market here is irrelevant to my senses.

[@joeclow6563]

Why did u decide to become vegan? I'm trying hard to be vegi, doing ok working towards vegan one day

[@phillyandkeely]

Great complex question. It's all a personal journey I suppose, I think for us it was realising lots of stuff we thought we knew about food nutrition and agricultural practices was incorrect, once we peaked behind that curtain it all unravelled. We did two weeks vegan to see how we felt while researching the nutrition and environmental aspects of animal agricultural industry, and then after two weeks we felt so good we extended it to a month, then by the end of that month we had learnt so much more about the impact on animals as well as ourselves and we felt so good in our bodies that we never ate a single animal product again. A two week trial to see how we felt whilst researching turned into a five year later life long choice.
