Mentally, I've already moved to Thailand. Physically, I'm still in London. Financially, I'm broke af. Creatively, I'm gonna get my 3 KZbin channels off the ground to change the situatuons of my 2 prior problems 😤😤 And I'm not gonna specifically spend my days in Thailand. It'll be where I reside, but I wanna jump on a bike and visit the bordering countries of Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam. Been watching man's channel when you arrived out there on your grainy cam, and look at you now Brudda: Bluetooth mics, clean cam, drone shots, skin glowing and meeting cool like-minded brothas. I'm trying to do the same. Wish me luck you lot.. We ALL can achieve peace and tranquility in life by removing ourselves from the chaos 👊🏿✊🏿💪🏿

As a New Yorker who lived in Asia for 4 years, I can say that I am ready to leave again. The cost of living was just so much... BETTER. A lot more reasonable. Things didn't feel so difficult. The biggest issue I had was that my dating life was horrible overseas. If/When I decide to leave again, it would ideally be with a partner.

I'm a white guy brother who lives in Bangkok. Glad to see these guys enjoying life in BKK. To me, BKK is huge but laid back and very safe for ex-pats. It's like NYC without the bad parts. And living in the 50s with a cell phone.

[@Blue_SeaSmoke]

videos like this is what destroyed Bali....just remember that...Ironically, it was another black brother that went viral promoting cities abroad and now each city has inflated in cost of living....People kept giving him a pass because he was "black" and black people "cant gentrify".....but now the average black person cant afford Bali or even Ghana.....Make content without bragging about rent costs because by the time YOU get a chance to make it to bankok the rent will be just as expensive as the U.S.

[@C1K450]

Southeast Asia (Thailand/Cambodia/Vietnam) or Latin America/Caribbean are the better options in terms of affordability and government stability. Other regions like Europe and East Asia you need money and skills to move out there. Africa I could recommend Ghana but the other African nations are unstable and lack basic public services.

What's up my Brother? Guess what dude. I just turned 73 the Sunday before Thanksgiving, and I was stationed in Thailand twice wayback in the early 1970s. Trust me you're making me home sick sort of speak. I was in the Air Force back then in my early twenties, and boy did I have fun. What I do see is that the monetary system as well as value is still somewhat the same. What I'm saying is that a bot is still worth a nickel, that's incredible. Back here in Phoenix, Az. an unfurnished studio apartment would run you almost a gran. What your friend have there with all the amenities, unfurnished, up and downstairs with no maid service would run about 2 gran easy. You guys are making my decision easy. I get a VA pension almost 1400 dollars a month. I really don't need that much space at all. I can find a one bedroom real easy, fully furnished with maid service for about 200 dollars a month anyware in the Land. You fellas enjoy yourselves, God Bless you. Peace!

Thailand is just right for me

@@Mhel2023 Yeah, all of the massive Asian cities are very fast paced, even faster than NYC. They are much bigger and more populated than NYC. However, NYC is the only Western city that has the Asian city level of chaos. New Yorkers also have the same crazy hustle and work ethic of the massive Asian cities.

Also what is the visa situation like? Is this brother making border runs every 60 days and won't thailand crack down on that after once or twice?
