7:19 "...1970's modernist architecture building..." While watching the video clips of this old house, I realized that while the clips were strung together, the surrounding outdoor sounds were one uninterrupted clip. You definitely win awards for editing! It played so well, transitioning from the restaurants with background music, to the old house clips with relaxing outdoor audio. Thoroughly enjoyable.
@BangkokPat27 күн бұрын
When I edited that I was going to leave the clips and their own audio but a motorbike passed by very noisily so the clips would have sounded disjointed so I just left one long piece of audio from the first clip which was about a minute.

Hi Pat, I've lived in Thailand for 40 years. I've never been interested in watching vids about Bangkok as they are always poorly made, not very informative and never tell me anything I don't already know, and in some cases lived thru myself. I lived and worked in the Sathorn Silom Suriwonge area for over 20 years. My apartment was on Maehasak and my office was on Surasak just a stones throw from the Sathorn Surasak intersection. So i was glued to my TV screen for both parts 1 and 2. I remember so much about the years gone by when all those high rise buildings and skytrains weren't there. Your vids are high quality and so well done. Even the historical aspect of your vids is excellent. After spending over 20 years of my life there your research into the history of the area taught me so much I never knew. I'm retired now and living in the North of Thailand in Pai, and your vids really made me homesick and let me remember some good times living in a very exciting city. I've subcribed to your channel and look forward to your next vid. Keep up the good work. Your really very good at your job.

Your videos are excellent, love the history and depth of your research. Your 2 videos on the Sathorn area brought back fond memories, seeing my 1980s home at Diamond Tower and (after a 5 year gap in Hong Kong) my 1990s home at Palm Courtt (now Siri Sathorn), as well as the old BNH where my kids were born and the many old houses that used to line Sathorn. Left Bangkok in 1997, for many subsequent foreign assignments, but still return 3 or so times a year (but always stay riverside now).

I spent part of my childhood in the Sathon neighborhood. I was born in the St. Louis Hospital, went to preschool at Sang Arun Kindergarten on Sathon 11, then went on to finish 6th grade at Assumption College next door. Sang Arun Kindergarten backs up to the Wat Don Cemetery. While living at the boarding school, we would hear about ghost stories and ghost sightings. The area has changed quite a lot in the 40 years since I left Thailand. Interesting and insightful videos. I remember several mansions you mentioned. And they should knock down the Ghost Tower eyesore. Such a waste!
