You did a great job assessing HH. Some younger influencers will describe it as some mythical paradise and over sell to get views, but in reality it’s a terrific place for 50+ and pretty relaxed. While the sand is awesome in many places, most areas you can walk out 100M in the ocean and the water is still waste level. Best golf in Thailand, famous for kitesurfing but it really is for the older quiet crowd that want a normal life and have a real relationship, or for the wealthy Bangkok Thai weekend getaway.

Such as great series mate 👍 Your honest opinion on the different aspects of the city makes great watching … I’m wondering now what would happen if you had a trip to other places and used the magic formula/approach you took to HH in a vid series - I’m thinking specially sin-city Pattaya, the southern islands around Phi phi & Koh Lanta, Kanchanaburi with its WW2 history and of course a tour of Bangkok. I think we all know you are a CM lad at heart but great to see you travel the LoS 🇹🇭 Take care mate 👍👍😎😎

Thanks for the great walk and talk and wrap-up Wayne, I really enjoyed your perspectives on Hua Hin. I spent a couple of days there many years ago when it was pretty much a fishing village, and I recall it being a bit too basic when compared to Chaing Mai, but now that Chaing Mai seems to be more like a suburb of Bangkok perhaps Hua Hin is more like Chaing Mai back in it's charming day. I would have enjoyed seeing your take on some properties, but I expect you'll be returning before too long. Cheers Mate, and until the next touch-down, stay fueled and flying straight and level.

You are so right about the many interesting and nice places around Thailand, but like you, I still keep coming back to Chiang Mai. But it would be nice to get ocean air all the time and no burning season. I was pleased that HH was not too busy even during weekends, at least at the beach, although the night food markets were packed, even during rainy season. I agree, a nice place to live. Looking forward to your next city to explore.

Good review Wayne, definitely Hua Hin for me I am visiting it in December to see it for myself,the Ocean definitely clinches it. When you go back you will feel at home but that’s natural due to you long term stay I honestly don’t believe they can compare. Keep positive ,the air quality and proximity to Bkk is a positive and the new train station will be a great addition, you cut your cloth to your wallet which your expert at anyway. Stay healthy and well grounded wish you long term happiness.

@@barryoneill-ec9zz I wouldnt say so, Pattaya has so many great condo deals, not many places in the world can beat it. Yes you can get some good housing deals in Hua Hin, but not as good as Pattaya in my opinion. Both places have their good and bad points and both great choices, but for overall value, things to do and convenience I think Pattaya outranks Hua Hin, but having some great beaches and interesting hikes to the south of Hua Hin makes it a tough decision if you can find a nice quiet affordable place thats in a good area of Hua Hin to live, I couldnt.

I've always been a beach person but I settled on Chiang Mai. A beach is a beach and I'm not knocking them, but there is something about Chiang Mai, I love the mountains as well as the city. I went to Hua Hin 3 months ago for a holiday and thought exactly as you have. It would be a great place to retire, but to be honest the city itself isn't a nice as Chiang Mai. I was glad to get back to Chiang Mai, but Hua Hin is only a few dollars to fly to for a swim at the beach and fresh seafood.

Finally in Thailand Wayne, not going to script yet mate, but all good fun. Me and the Mrs got up at 5 yesterday, sorted our stuff out, dropped the dogs off and headed on a 5 hour trip down to Perth, went to see my brother-in-law then at 10pm headed off to the airport. The plane was delayed and we took off at 3am to KL, then onto Bangkok on another delayed flight 😮 So when we got to Bangkok we had missed out flight to Chiang Mai, the next one out was another 4 hour wait at the airport. So by this time we had been up since 5am the day before and now its 2pm the following day! So both being knackered with a capital F we decided to stay over night in Bangkok. Enjoying a beer now, still have enough energy to go out for dinner at 6, but I reckon we will sleep well tonight 😂 When I we get to CM Wayne, I’ll let you know, if you have time to catch up for a beer we can make it happen, if not, maybe next time. Good job I’m only 64 and still young!!

No need to convince me though as i mentioned before my mind was made up a while ago. But i must admit after watching (and listening very carefuly to) that amazing capped crusader in "The Adventures of captain WalkAboutWayne" that only strengthens my decision to move there myself. Food for thought though, you could always put Losewheel on a truck without having to ride her the whole way there and then you would still have transport.🤔Great trip.

Hi Wayne, my husband and I are wanting to go to Hua Hin this month and confused as to where the best place to book. We live in Queensland Australia on the Gold Coast and it is approximately 30ks long with many beaches, which some areas are busy and some are not. We are wondering what you think of an area that is close to the beach, but not too much of a rat race. If you could suggest some areas in order to give us a guide of the Hua Hin area, would be appreciated. Thanks Laraine & Gary

Great video ad per usual 👌 During my travels in Thailand I stayed a week in Hua Hin. Pretty much agree with all your points Wayne. The main one being your observation about so many older western men, mostly from Scandanavian countries which for me, kind of loses the genuine cultural appeal to a country which made the place go down on my rating scale. To me, Chiang Mai is one of THE places in Thailand because of the cultural options available. I don't quite get the point of leaving a western country to live among so many western people but each to their own and I fully respect that. I've loved your videos from Hua Hin bud 👌 Just selling up in Bodmin touching down in Rayong in February but travelling all over Thailand. Maybe bump into you in CM one day 😊

I've lived in both places for more than a year each. My lifestyle was quite different but that's mainly through choice and being able to find a property I really wanted in Hua Hin - so now I go out less and can focus on health & fitness. I also live on the beach now, which is the main and most obvious difference but the other one is a bit more controversial 😝 Now I've had friends come here to visit from Chiang Mai and everyone agreed - the one thing they didn't see once in Hua Hin is 🐭🐁🐀 We do have lots of 🐒and monitor🦎but I like those.

I can't recall seeing any rodents, surely there must be at night? It was great to see the Monkeys. Thanks.

Let's face it all those beautiful young Thai women are with those older fallangs for one thing only, money. If they were skint they wouldn't get a look in with them. I'm going to retire in pattaya in 3 years but never in a million years get involved with a girl from there. The retirement money would soon be gone. The best way in Thailand is the butterfly way. You know it makes sence. Ps udon thani is a great place and worth a visit 😀

100% Having a missus in Thailand comes with drawbacks, you will be alot poorer 🤣🤣. Staying wild and free is better 👍. I'm hoping to see Udon some time 👍

Wayne, if you ever come back and your a non-smoker then ping me and if I have a condo open off the Khao Takiab beach street I’ll give you a YTers discount for a month. 4.5+ star condo’s for close to what you paid for this trip. You can walk 250 meters for dinner on the beach with the moon lighting up the sky, and the patio is connected to the condo pool so you just wake up and roll over in to the pool.

I think "eye candy" Wayne shouldnt live there. All rthe time stopped by the ladies. Maybe i could protect him? Anyway, still cheap apts. and condos. And a good base for flying around Thailand. Also cheap.

As far as the police, nothing compared to Pattaya. If you arent wearing a helmet in Pattaya you wont last 2 days without getting a ticket. Most expats dont wear helmets in Hua Hin Ive noticed. As far as women, yes lots in Pattaya but a different kind of woman (maybe not).

take a man who has been married to but lady for maybe 30 years gets divorced, the man is 65 years old he comes to Thailand and sees the happy and beautiful ladies, it's a take-your-own-table thing ..I also sing it looks wrong when the age is too big ..difficult to see the age of women in TH whether they are 30 or 45 years old ..I'm Danish here the ladies look old quickly when they turn 40 so don't bother having them, they're overweight, smoke, drink , bontos, take sunny yes they get too old too fast, not many Thais do that hold snake and very beautiful ... so I can understand that you take a younger woman, me and my wife are 7 years apart
