Relax Paddy, compared to what most of us at home are experiencing with restrictions to our daily lives, watching you go about your daily business on beautiful Koh Samui is entertaining enough. Of course the occasional drone shots of the majestic beaches, coastline and countryside coupled with your cinematic and editing skills would be much appreciated too. 🙏

[@mariettathornton5924]

Glad to see you back Paddy, we miss you! Sometimes….. it’s just so important to take a break and it’s ok! Great for the psyche or overall wellness. This Samui Sidequest is Awesome!!! You know that your fans will always support you through the thick and thin😘 (ps- I ordered the olive green “follow your dreamy” T-shirt & it arrived a couple of days ago & my husband loves it😉) Look forward to your next vlog!

[@YeboSa]

"Next level" for everyone is different....From skydiving to visiting restaurants. The most interesting ones (for me) are you just traveling along Thailand and having fun. Nobody cares about "next level", you can call it "no level adventures". Just have fun and we will too.

[@biddyleeiifishing5004]

This is the way.

[@beverlyweber4122]

Very good rebrand. Great explaination for your absence and so sorry to hear of your struggles. KZbin can be brutal. Folks don't realize it's a 'job' and the editing process and creative process can be rough. For the record, it's rough all over. It's depressing for many of us, for different reasons. My work back in the US is hard, listening to tales of woe and no end in sight breaks my heart most days. KZbin vlogs are a respite.Being stuck out of Thailand, missing it, watching your channel (and others) help keep us sane. Travel porn has a purpose. Your personality is what makes the channel worth watching. Keep at it. Keep going. You got this!

[@larrainedeloach726]

I completely agree Beverly!!! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@marywilson5192]

The run to the top was symbolic. You getting back to the top of your game.. To me, anything you are doing in Thailand is NEXT LEVEL. ❤️

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Well said!

[@roccohagedorn3110]

I believe you have to stop thinking of KZbin as your business. I started watching your channel because you had fun, recorded the fun and let me be part of the fun. I think you have to stop trying to provide content for us the subscribers, and rather look for the things you liked to do in the first place. If you put pressure on yourself to find content for us, it might come across as forced and not personal. I like you and your personality, the fun you have and the life you live. Do that and I’m sure you’ll enjoy your life a lot more. KZbin might provide you with an income, but it shouldn’t be the business you think it has to be. What I’m trying to say is, I wish I could help you to be yourself, because that’s the guy I want to see and follow. Have fun !

[@jane-BKK]

I agree

[@jane-BKK]

@@gp6774 you're correct as well...whatever it is, I am still rooting for Paddy Doyle....he is non-pretentious, genuine, speaks the truth and very likeable...one of my favorite youtubers

[@MancTraveller]

It is a business and its needed income to be able to do this in the first place. he refused to do the sponsored adverts/promo because people would moan and what he had to do to make that up is provide more content. But as he says here, to stay in the KZbin algorithms and get consistent views and recommended to people, you have to keep being a regular content creator, its a catch 22 situation really.

[@FizoHizoOfficial]

You took a needed break, and now you rose to the next level! Thank you for letting us live in Thailand vicariously through you. Looking forward to more side quests!

[@melissasinger8642]

Welcome back! It’s YOU we love! Don’t care what you do it’s you we Love watching!!! Breathe breathe. Enjoy where you are.

[@narellec]

Your vlog gave me just what I needed & your struggles resonate with me. I woke up in the middle of the night to some awful news of a work colleague’s passing. I couldn’t sleep & your video bought me some much needed light. We love you Paddy just the way you are - if it’s next level or Samui temporary rebrand! I’ll watch it all! Take care .

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Sorry to hear about that!

[@salliepryor1692]

Love your new direction on your channel, you're a great example of when life gives you lemons, make lemonaid.

[@willdodd6706]

Hey Paddy, thanks so much for being so honest about what’s been going on for you. I have been really enjoying ‘Next Level Adventures’ which is based on such a brilliant yet simple idea. I already know I’m going to enjoy ‘Samui Side Quests' just as much. The reason being your personable and good humoured presentation style and knack for finding interesting ways to present beautiful Thailand. I’m glad to hear you are getting support and encouragement from so many of us following you - take no notice of the mean minority trying to bring you down. Stay well and keep on doing what you do so well. You’re a great boost to morale.

[@rejiestage8749]

watching you playing/feeding beautiful dogs is already an interesting content for many of us who loves animals 😍

[@PaddyDoyle.]

haha ok good to know

[@ThailandThomas]

Patty, I think right now is the best time to be a Thailand KZbinr if you can come up with content ideas, since so many of the regular Thai KZbinrs have mostly cut back or shut down to the Covid thing. As a Thailand lover I am needing more.

[@miarena111]

not sure if you care to read this, but i worked for over 15 years with ppl in all sorts of traumatic situations and i was good, i might add. but it can hurt to read the facts and i am aware of that. this never stoped me from being straigh out into their faces. look, you could sit in mongolia, argentinia or wherever, we watch because of YOU. it is your *spirit* that we wonna see. for my example, thailand is not even on my bucketlist. go find a guy called *tich man tue* and do what he is doing. i promise you will feel better for good !!! *stop thinking* and go with the huge heart of yours rather !!! i can also promise that this works, no matter what you do. you got this bright smile, you got this unconditional kindness, you got the handsomeness, you got this urge to give ppl some nice expieriences, YOU GOT ALL IT TAKES. you can not go wrong as long as you go with your heart and never ever with your head !!! film flowers, film more pineapples, film each others interviews because you got plenty of YT friends there, film whatever you want and share your thoughts, that is all we need. everyone knows about that C BS that is going on and we understand.

[@texasruss]

Spot on!

[@tinaj7508]

Thanks for sharing, it’s refreshing to see videos talking about the struggles of life and not just focusing on the ‘good times’. I’m travelling to Ko samui in 2 weeks and was really anxious about it as have been struggling a lot with my anxiety lately but watching your videos has made me feel a lot more positive about things ❤

[@TakePassportsandGo]

Mate, I watch your channel because you are relatable, funny and shoot great content. This was great! Been following you and the Budgeteers from the start and look forward to getting that notification that there is something new to watch. Been locked down for 17 mths and when I say lockdown I mean haven't left my home to go anywhere more than 10 times in all those mths. Seeing such a beautiful place and awesome people helps me so much. I planned a 6wk trip through Thailand starting September 17th and I am using your ebook to plan where to travel. To make a short story long 😂 - You could film this sort of video everyday and I would still call it next level. Well done! Happy you are back. Stay safe and thanks for uploading 🙂

[@karlchandler10]

Dude, you couldn't be stuck in a better place. SO genuinely jealous of what you're doing. Make sure you enjoy it!!!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Couldn't agree more!

[@GoBravesATL]

NO PRESSURE, PaddyCakes! We love your videos, we are happy staying in Koh Samui & exploring for a while. We love it! Koh Samui IS enough for us… don’t sweat it! We are all stuck in some form of lockdown & this is the perfect escape for us. So, thank you!

[@alainec1]

Hey Paddy. I'm just happy to know that you feel better now. One step after another, from next level adventure to Samui Sidequest, what interest me the most in your channel is your genuine discovery of Thailand, no matter if it's huge or small discovery.

[@lindabuck2777]

Paddy, it’s YOU we stay for! It’s a JOURNEY that you’re LIVING and it’s like a story only better and so what you do it your way!!! I’m guessing Thailand or beaches had us checking your videos out, and liked your way and stayed. I also now watch Flora and Note because of you and they are the sweetest people ever and so enjoyable to watch! When you guys include each other in crossovers that’s way cool too! Listen, there’s no escaping we ALL have our faults farts and foibles, more importantly you prove human experience with all facets and depth, how dare you have a not so great day how dare you have fun (snicker) you see where I’m goin with this?!?! Let the good times roll the rest fade away.. we love and look forward to you 🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️

[@nikkiweijdom4842]

Missed you Paddy, very happy to see you are back, health is important , so important, but do you realize how much joy you give to your viewers doing even the most simplest things. Thank you for picking yourself up, rebranding and on to a mentally happy way of life.

[@ceenee3800]

Hi Paddy I’ve been following you since the first episode of the Budgeteers. You are doing an amazing job. The main reason we watch the channel is for you. You engage with the camera so well that it feels like we are in Thailand with you. Please take care of yourself and enjoy the time in Koh Samui, it looks like such a beautiful place.

[@JazziMaiArt]

Paddy😩❤️my heart goes out to you luv. I've struggled with anxiety since I was a child and I know how your mind can race, you can't sleep etc. I color every day to help relax, play music and light a candle. Also, my hubby and I love watching you ride dreamy or or jet ski. You're videos have become our evening ritual. Keep your chin up!🤗 This was fun to watch because your fun😍

[@hopeheavenonplanetearth1417]

You ask what we think… I believe, most of us are going to support you! That most of us are having struggles, as well. I am guessing you don’t want to let us down, but we know how creative you are and will watch whatever you put out. You will continue when you are able… Be safe… healthy 🙏

[@PaddyDoyle.]

thanks !!! ☺️

[@clinicmanagertreeoflifecen3609]

Hi Paddy, love these videos, huge congrats on how far you’ve come. Being open and honest about the struggles of being alive in 2021 is already next level. We love the epic views and adventures, but just sharing the simple things and local daily life is such a break for us. Keep up the great work. It’s really hard as a content creator and you’re nailing it. Go Paddy!

[@shelleyhelmond9517]

Good to see you looking healthy and taking care of yourself. People’s openness about mental health makes such a difference for those who think they suffer alone. We, your subscribers and viewers support you because we can relate to you. You could read the phone book and we would watch because you would do it in your own inimitable style. Please continue creating content on your own schedule in your own way because we LOVE it! ❤️

[@rcwb2662]

We look forward to your videos every time and feel like we're there with you in paradise. So glad your anxiety has diminished.🙏 Love love love your videos and warm energy. Beautiful 💕

[@greggoes]

Due to time zones I've been waiting all day to come home and watch this. I love the side quest aspect of the entire series. Glad to know you sought, received, and are well with your mental health. It's real, and we all struggle with it. Paddy, keep rocking ! Glad to see you back

[@JustinCase-cs3dh]

No need to rebrand. Remember that, as in life, next level down is just as valuable as next level up. The brand is YOU, so I appreciate seeing all sides of your journey. I bet you're going to impress yourself 20 years from now when you can look back at the incredible personal journal you've made. It's a priviledge to see this work in progress! Thank you.

[@heatherr837]

Paddy, don’t put so much pressure on yourself. We love what you are doing and not every video has to be next level. You are an absolute natural at this & we love the way you talk to us & show us around Thailand, even though at the moment it’s just only small part of Thailand. Just be yourself. We miss our regular Thailand trips. Just have fun Paddy.

[@Josettelatrotinette]

Welcome back Paddy! We missed you 🥰 Great job! Every day life and beautiful scenery is actually very interesting and entertaining. Thank you!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

More to come!

[@ladygrey7247]

Welcome back paddy. Dont be too hard on yourself, like everyone here said...we watch and enjoy your channel because of you. But its totally normally to hit a mental wall atm cos of covid. I'm in semi lockdown in Bangkok and your videos are a saviour!! Keep smiling dude.

[@Dalarnanu]

Great to see you smiling and having a good time again! Love the video!

[@pabloyvieng]

Paddy, I've been following you for a while and loved your content, epic or not. I don't think there is a need to re-brand because you are the brand, we follow you and I can't speak for all of your followers but all of your content is solid and very entertaining. Don't forget, you are the brand whether you are in Epic locations or not. Well that's my two cents... GREAT to see you back!!!

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Well said!

[@johnnyqzumba2012]

Your New INTRO is GREAT! We appreciate how thoughtful you are towards your subscribers and viewers. Glad you took the BREAK to Replenish, Rest and Reflect. You are and must have been a great teacher. We are your students learning about Thailand and the different provinces during your travels. If this were a University/College Course, I think you would get an "A" because you make the content and material so fun, interesting and memorable. Keep Doing What You Do! I think DREAMY appreciates the travel break as well.😉🛵

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thanks John!

[@anitamendoza19]

SawadeeKaaaaaaa Great job, Paddy! My husband and I love how your natural teaching abilities show through your videos. We love Samui Side Quest. We are heading to Thailand in March. This new format will be helpful to us (both over 65) as we may not be able to do some of those Next Level adventures. We both love that you are practicing good self care! ♥️

[@Spence2602]

Paddy, we all hit the wall from time to time and the strong ones continue and you will i know. You are giving me a good insight into thai life thank you.

[@sjmoss1978]

Great to see your face back on a video mate! With you every step of the way. Really intrigued to see more of Samui, I wonder if you can get to the nearby islands? Bring on the Sidequests! Awesome intro! Priority #1. Your health. Glad you took time off to concentrate on getting yourself right. Much love and admiration buddy!

[@yingsthaicookinghome2839]

Congrats on your quick recovery... That mental stress really can get out of control without even noticing at first. And nice to see you being back with such a great idea for your channel. Guess that will give the whole project a very unique touch. Looking forward to what's upcoming :)

[@saiprom]

Sorry to hear you are end up in the hospitality , happy to see you are back and smiling , interesting to see the local and the place to hangout with a beautiful stunning of the ocean view. Simple and beautiful

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Thank you so much!

[@somnumna2606]

Welcome back Paddy. The mind is a powerful thing and glad you have come through the other side. You are looking healthy as well !

[@jjwr99]

So glad to see you back in action, Paddy. Watching your tour of the provinces reminds me of when I was your age, teaching and exploring Thailand back in the 70s/80s. So much has changed since then, and I’ve learned so much about those changes and what has stayed the same thanks to your vlog. Me and the missus are planning to return to Thailand and retire, hopefully about a year from now. So please, as soon as it’s safe to do so, finish your travels. We need to pick a province to settle down in, and we’re counting on you to reconnoiter for us. Meanwhile, your deep dives into life on Samui will keep us watching. Stay chipper, chappie. You’re the best!

[@HughesHallinLA]

Hey Paddy, Thanks for showing that no matter where we are in the world, we're all trying to persevere through this mess, and that even in an island paradise you have to deal with the pressure and doubts that this inevitably raises. You set a healthy example for everyone!

[@gracem1013]

Hi Paddy, have you met with lily of Lily's expat life? She lives in Koch samui and She talks about her spiritual experience.

[@ajtom4987]

welcome back paddy don’t overwhelm pushing yourself too much we’re beside you

[@ediblaettler4819]

You made me cry when I watched your video today. Take it easy Paddy - relax as good as you can and don't worry to much. You are such a nice guy. Many good things will happen to you.

[@glacierwombat]

Paddy I want to thank you for being so honest and positive about your mental health needs, and having to go to hospital for help. There are still many ignorant and harmful stereotypes about mental health issues and the more we share our experiences honestly and respectfully, the more we combat stigma and the less shame we feel. Sharing is the antidote to shame. I back packed through Thailand 20 years ago, and your videos are a delightful reminder of that magical time. Thank you for the work you put in to make such great content.

[@PaddyDoyle.]

I really appreciate that mate

[@tonyheath7125]

Paddy, I've been watching your vlogs for some time now and have thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. It was so sad to see you 'down' in your last one and I did feel for you out there. I've travelled myself extensively around the Southern part of Thailand and its so great to see your fabulous vlogs of places that I've also been to and it just makes me want to return as soon as I can. All I would say about your health is that at least you recognised it was getting bad before it was too late. So, so pleased that you are now overcoming the issues and getting back to what you are not only very good at but you so enjoy doing. Please keep it up and you will feel miles better over the coming weeks. Take care.

[@robnaylor4897]

Great video Paddy and welcome back. Not enough people talk about their mental health because of the stigma attached to it, so well done for leading the way. Just videos in Thailand of everyday things is an escape for so many of us. Thanks Paddy.

[@paulscott775]

Good to see you back. Just chill and keep doing what you do best & let your personality shine through. Any aspect of Thailand is entertaining with you. Keep giving us all a chance to look at you enjoying Kho Samui.

[@LonglingEriksen]

Love your films because it is easy to like you. You smile, interact and giggles at the same time. Relax and go on.

[@lyndalozner6706]

Just found this. Didn't get a notification. Guess I need a technology lesson. Paddy, so sorry about your health issues. Although most of us would like to see a daily video you need to do what's right and healthy for you. We'll still be here . I think your personality is why many of us are hooked on your videos. Being stuck at home and not allowed to do much traveling sucks but many of us are "traveling" thru you. Whether you just go to a restaurant or walk on a beach we get to feel like we are there. Try not to feel pressure from all of us to do the videos. Take it slow and easy. Videos of restaurants, businesses, a day at the pool (although not one with a kids birthday noisy party ha) sound fine to me and I'll bet many of the others here that want to someday visit the area. Actually, for me its probably best you are stuck in one place as I originally wanted to visit Chiang Mai for a few weeks but after watching all your videos I'm now upto a six week trip plan including all the southern places you've been. An idea for a quick video might be a trip to the Butterfly Farm on the island if you need ideas. Please stay healthy and safe. Any idea when you may be eligible for the vaccine in Thailand?

[@PaddyDoyle.]

I am on the list for a vaccine, so just patiently waiting

[@anajimenez2573]

What a wonderful video. Nice and simple! Loved it because it was you just having fun. Fist day of school on Monday and after a full week of preparing for a full class of 1st graders it was nice to have an adventure with you, no matter what it is❤️

[@Jason_Unstoppable]

Paddy, you're overthinking this whole thing. The channel is not "Samui side quest", nor is it "Thailand motorbike tour". The channel and brand are YOU, Paddy Doyle. Just do you and be you, whatever and wherever that is. That's what we viewers are here for. Everyone understands the situation and limitations that you have right now. Not every video needs to be some amazing place or adventure. That's not realistic. Look at Harald Baldr. He gets tons of people to watch him get a haircut for 30 minutes. Don't overcomplicate it. Just be you and the subs will continue to grow. Edit: Damn. I wrote this comment before I got to 9:20. You nailed it yourself already. Take that chill pill. :)

[@CB-dl1vg]

Great point. Totally agree!

[@jane-BKK]

Can't agree more

[@Kikiyayazengardens]

I have noticed that Thailand vlogs are mostly about locations and travelling, perhaps dishes, but not about Thai people. I like to hear Thai people talking.

[@masonryjoe2172]

I thought I would chime in and wanted to say, Paddy don't stress, you have a great KZbin personality and future ahead of you. Some tubers are just easy to watch and you young man are one of them, press on, don't winge and maybe after pushing yourself so had as of late, it's time to have a cold beer and congratulate yourself on a job well done. A little stress keeps us on our toes and you have a loyal fan base, so rejoice in the journey of life in beautiful Thailand, Cheers from Canada !

[@stuckinthepattayabubble9319]

Ha that's my exercise spot when I am in Samui. My gf has a house in Plai laem but we are both stranded in Pattaya atm. Waiting for restrictions to end so we can get back home to the islands. We miss Samui soo much so thanks for bringing us footage from the island Paddy. Don't worry about constant content there's no need to stress....your loyal followers will always be watching and supporting you. ♥️🇹🇭

[@Mod-man]

Hey Paddy, Having watched all your vlogs and watched a number of other Thailand based vloggers, I must say that you're my favourite. You have a great sense of humour. You are creative and make interesting video's which are enjoyable to watch. I know it's frustrating that you are unable to produce the content that you would like to but hang in there because all your genuine subscribers care and want only what's best for you. Don't feel like you need to produce regular video's whilst you are there in Koh Samui. Make them on your terms not anyone else's terms. I appreciate what you are doing and I am grateful for all the hard work you put into your video's. I look forward to watching your next video. I wish you all the happiness in the world and good health. Take care. Cheers, Stef

[@livinginphuketthailand]

I understand where you're at mate. Taking some time away from social media is super important. I love your channel and I've just moved to Samui myself. Hopefully bump into you somewhere around the island soon bro! Keep doing what your doing, you're an inspiration to many people including myself.

[@CoulterTravel]

Great and honest video, Paddy. Been away for two weeks so just now catching up. Definitely the best idea to keep making content from beautiful Thailand and not just shutting up shop until you’re back on the road. Especially as winter draws in in the West! We need to keep seeing Thailand through your lense my friend. 👍🏻

[@suerogerson5081]

You haven’t rebranded - you have expanded and in such a positive way . It’s fantastic that your entertaining us but you have to look after yourself whilst doing it so don’t feel so pressured. Can’t wait to see more of ur little adventures

[@NickyDunn]

Hiya Paddy, do I need to set up alerts as I didn't get one. I have my bell on already. So sorry to hear you ended up in hospital. I am glad you stepped back for a while. Your health and wellbeing are important. Although I missed your videos so much. I think you are a legend. I love your videos. You put far too much pressure on yourself. You're brilliant. Whatever videos you do, I enjoy. Have a great weekend. Take care.

Welcome back, you've been missed. I came home from work today to be told "Paddy's put a video up". We always look forward to your next video, whatever it brings. The Covid situation has messed with most peoples emotions and you bringing a bit of Thailand to us, is keeping us going from this side of the world whilst we are unable to visit. No pressure though, happy to wait for each one when you're ready. Keep up the great work and take care of yourself xxx

Hey Paddy, glad to see you doing better and back in your element. Just wanted to say most of us should take your example and live their lives as you do. You are grateful for what you have, are forgiving of those who try to hurt you and give to those you care for. Your videos show what life should be about, just being happy and making the best of things. We can all find happiness in the simplest of things, and you show us that. As Master Oogway would say, "yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift, that is why they call it the present." Thanks for making everyday a gift with your videos and your big heart. take good care and be safe.

Thanks for letting us know how you're doing. Even just some content for a while watching dogs or other pets or wild animals or birds do their thing is relaxing and enjoyable.

Brilliant and simple, to quote Leonardo da Vinci "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication". I would love to see an episode of how the average Thai family is riding through this tourist crisis on Samui...

I watched this video from quarantine in Bangkok. It helped so much to feel like I was outside as I walked on my treadmill up that hill with you. Even added incline and speed then lowered it again when you got to the top😂 thanks for taking me on a walk today! It's always good to take a break Paddy, particularly now that everyone is on devices all the tome. Take care x

[@PaddyDoyle.]

Wonderful!

We tuned in to watch you enjoy yourself, don't matter what you are doing. ❤️❤️❤️

This ”about-not-so-much” content is so much better than caves and kayaks. But that’s just me. Hope you feel better … and you know what? It’s not about quantity. It’s about quality. Less is more.

[@TerryTuckin]

Hi Paddy, Glad to hear you are ok and back on track Can you please do a video on how the locals are helping out the needy affected by the pandemic? Thais are well know for being charitable and it would be inspirational to see them at it. Take care ol'boy and keep at it!
