I first came to Thailand backpacking when I was 24 years old for a 2 month trip then returned to Thailand when I was 32 to work and that turned into 25 years! I retired in Thailand when I was 55, as you can in Thailand. I'm also a NZer so have a similar view of Thailand as Steve.

Running, Cold Plunge, Sauna, Breathwork, etc... is SO MUCH better than nightlife ! It's great to see that more and more people are thinking about their health and protecting their brains and bodies from aging, breaking down.

Thanks for this lovely and informational vid which I chanced upon.

[@Constellasian]

Thanks for this video. My situation is similar to Paul Lee's in some ways. I didn't live in NYC, but in San Diego. I did the hustle and bustle, made my wealth, and now want to "chill". That's how I came across videos like this about Thailand. I'm planning to explore Bangkok and Koh Samui before deciding if Thailand is right for me. I'll probably sign up for Steve's running group since I like to stay fit.

Thanks for sharing Steve! My parents immigrated from Thailand to New Zealand when I was 3 years old. They sacrificed so much for me and my brother. We both have our degrees and good jobs. Now I am 25 years old and I want to move to Thailand. This video has made me even more keen.

The instrument called 'CAN' you can say it like the word can. It's kinda like a harmonica with pipe organ mix together.

I like your content. 😊 I would recommend you to visit Dinso Rd. My favorite is “Nan Fah” restaurant and order noodle with roasted duck (60-70thb) this the best one 👌 or Rice topped with stir-fried duck and Thai basil (ข้าวกะเพราเป็ด)

Thanks. Interview painted a "home away from home". For pom pom & commons, would you do 10d hotel there, then move to other hotels or would u do 30d in one hotel there? Goal: 1st timer seeking little sin-city, mostly quality-city. So helpful guys.

I would definitely go for the first option and split it into different hotels or airbnb

[@villagefarang]

I agree with your advice to visit, perhaps more than once, instead of going all in and saying I am moving to Thailand. People go through phases here and you have no idea how you will cope with the changes you go through living here. I am a little surprised by you guys being such homebodies at your age. When I was in my 20s and 30s in Bangkok I only went home to sleep or change clothes. Gyms, squash courts, hotels lobbies, clubs and coffee shops, where I was a regular and known, were preferable to being alone at home. I second the idea of group activities and classes as a way of staying healthy and meeting like minded people. I do spend a lot of time at home these days but I am 70 now and live surrounded by rice paddies in Chiang Rai.

[@Sam_tyler_]

Wow interesting insights there, thanks for sharing :)

The music instrument is called Can “แคน“ like you say “Can” not Cayenne 😊 this Can from Esan (Northeastern) region of Thailand
