Welcome to my beloved country of thailand. I miss it already, since I'm stuck in the U.S. for the last 12 years working a 6am to 2pm job monday-friday as a mechanical engineer for Microsoft. My goal is to save a lot and then retire within 5 years an move back too Thailand. You both will love the food and all the sightseeing that THAILAND will show you.

I am not a "city person" when traveling. I don't mind a couple days but then I need to get out. Bangkok is different for me. I absolutely love that city and spend weeks at a time there when in Thailand. The small communities within Bangkok make it something special and the Thais, of course, make me feel welcome and happy. November 2022 and I will be back!

You guys seem really genuine, like you're recording what you're actually doing day to day rather than the over-the-top performative cringe that most of these vloggers come with (maybe I'm just a sour brit). Really appreciate the helpful and enjoyable video! Thanks both

Hey guys... I lived in Thailand a few years ago and hated those atm fees. A quick hack I found out was going inside the bank and doing a counter withdrawal. Just wait in line, tell them you want to do a withdrawal, and they'll bring out that little machine and swipe your card there and give you the cash right there -- and you don't get charged atm fees because it's technically not an atm withdrawal. Hope that helps. Safe travels!

We love Thailand and have been there 7 times twice thru Bangkok. Where you stay is very important as the first time we picked the wrong area ( on friends advice ) did not suit us at all . last time we really loved where we stayed . Love the local feel and easy to pick the best food when you find a restaurant full of locals. I had read somewhere that they have cleared away alot of the night time street vendors over the years . We so loved grabbing meat on a stick as we called it from the street carts , then guessing what it was . So happy with how fresh and juicy it all was

The local food options were great and there were people set up on the pavement selling all sorts of food and trinkets. Not sure if this is still happening since covid. But there were reasonable restaurants in the streets around . Plus the train is easy to access there as well . We liked our hotel too the Pullman kingpower. Staff were excellent. Next time we will try somewhere else .

welcome to Thailand guys! Anyway, I think the price of the stuff onboard was wrong because I just traveled with Thai AirAsia last week (from DPS-DMK) and the price of water is just 40 thb. So, it’s gonna be only 1.5 usd. When I paid to them 2 usd, I got change in thb! So, I f you pay 5.66 usd as you mentioned, it’s probably 175 thb which is very expensive for a bottle of plain water!! I think it’s gonna be something wrong for you or maybe miscommunication with the crew. And of course, rate is a bit different but it’s acceptable! On the other hand, if you pay in Indonesia Rupia, 1 bottle of water is gonna be 40,000 IDR as IDR is lower that THB.

Tbh, I agree with this comment. I think it must be miss understanding, because 5$ for a bottle of water is just nonsense. Since I’ve traveled with this airline many time, I know that they didn’t charge that much with the foods and beverages. Btw hope you have a nice holiday in Thailand.

While you are in Thailand a must visit is Cave Lodge in Bang Ma pha, Mae Hong son province in the mountains of the the North. I ran small group adventures tours throughout Thailand and SouthEast Asia for 11 years and everyone I took there loved it and the area is full of hill tribe villages, caves and great walks in spectacular scenery. Especially good in the cooler months Oct-Jan/Feb. Super green and lush just after the rains have backed off and as the temps start to drop. Misty mountains and green forests. Women say Kop khun ka and men say Kop khun kup so the street food guy was correcting you in a polite way by saying "Kop khun ka" back to you when you used the men's thank you. When you go up North Mandy can use Kop khun jao as thank you. The locals will love it. 🙂

I used to go there just for live music (many good live music) and did hang out with friends for a few hours. It was great! 😊 In my opinion, it depends on what foreign visitors expect from it. Khao San Road is a famous street for backpackers which is quite noisy and crowded, but a lot of fun. 👍 I heard from some friends who stayed there and said they had a full-on day that started with a body massage, enjoyed delicious foods all the along the street, shopping then tried very strong mixed-all kind alcohol, tried a scorpion on a stick 😂, or even danced with friends and strangers (another group from different countries) all night! After a few days in the Khaosan Road area they felt they had enough, they moved to see and stay in other places that were calmer and cozier. So, this road I'd just say it is the first gate entrance of Bangkok that the visitors can have good entertainment and experience the crowded.

Thank you for this video. I really like your chill and honest vibe. The tuk tuk may be a scam. The driver gets a commission from the silk shop. There are other scammers near popular tourist spots. Sometimes they would tell you that the temples won’t open until later, and that you should do a tour with them first. But glad you made the best out of it. I usually use the prices on Grab to see if the driver is offering a fair price. Be on the lookout if it is too good to be true sometimes.

I think there is a trick with ATMs. The fees are applied when you let the ATM convert from AUD to baht. You need to say no in the menu and then the bank will do the conversion instead.

All the ATM have the same fee. And limited at about 300 euro you can withdraw. However I do think most shops and restaurants now accept revolut

I lived in Bangkok when I got verified by Google (different account) and I had them send the verification piece of mail to a family member and then they provided me with the code (if I remember correctly). This worked because I was using the same family member as my address for my financial accounts so don't know if that is required but maybe that is an option. I don't know if you all are using Aussie dollars or US but it is a great time to use US dollars in Thailand, check out the currency conversion chart. It was 30 to 1 when I lived there.

I have a ING orange everyday account from Australia. They offered no fee ATM any bank anywhere. You must deposit $1000aud every month. If you deposit in June it will be in effect July. Saved me a ton. I live in Bangkok now and don’t need it. It was all done online, they did have a small branch in Sydney CBD. Good luck!

A video from 10,000 years ago shows a similar couple describing the horrors and hardships when fighting off wild animals, trudging through snow for miles to gather food and watching clan members lose children to disease and hunger. Fast forward to the 'digital nomad' era, and there's intense struggles with over-priced airline food, hotel reservation systems and poorly-trained customer service agents. All-in-all, not a bad time to be alive!

You will have peace of mind when traveling in Thailand by spending through bank applications. Since the corona epidemic causing the spending of Thailand to change Paying with cash will bring germs with it. Therefore, the bank issued an application for spending. And it is very popular with Thai people.

So sorry to hear your issue with Adsense. I'm Indonesian and I live in Jimbaran - Bali. If you need a permanent address or something to make it work, maybe we can discuss about it. I'm not looking for money, fame, etc. I'm just trying to help cos you guys have given good exposure about Bali and I think this is the least I can do. Anyway if you believe in an angel, I probably one of them [in Jim Carey's model] 😆 Ok take care both of you and let me know. Cheers.

You should try Paragon food court in Bangkok. Travel by boats on the river, it is very cheap. Try to take sky train. Take motorbike taxi, it is amazing experience. Bangkok has to offer Northern Thai cousine, Southern, East and West. Do not afraid to try different regions foods. Try Durian ice-cream. There are so many different local fruit, which you will not be able to buy or try in your country.

If you would withdraw money from atm,i recommend the purple atm (siam commercial) And always keep small bills (a lot of 20baht).. if you ever ride taxi,use the pink one.. far more cheap,they use meter.. other colour taxi would too expensive.. or you can choose grab car..
