Hello Mr Den, 10 long months. What are you doing now? Miss your channel👍. Stay safe.
You are paying to much for everything helping put up the prices for everyone
You are paying to much for everything helping put up the prices for everyone
To much low kow. I think. Get home quick. And get a job
Me and my Thai wife are thinking of moving to khon Kaen from England. What areas are best to buy. Cheers. Rob and Kulab
Hi Den, I enjoyed your videos they were funny as well as educational keep them coming mate.
I will be leaving the U.K. to come and live in Khon Kaen later this year, although I’ll be very rural , I can’t wait. You wouldn’t believe the state of things back home here now. I’ve never known the U.K. to be on its knees like it is under Starmer. I’ll take Thailand any day. The U.K. is finished.
Thank you for the very informative video. I am coming back to Thailand in November 2024 to visit my friend hopefully for about 6 weeks, i can stay at her house and will help with her rice harvest. Hope to eventually retire out there so your video was full of useful info!
pics or it never happened
First visit, 2002. Dave and Noi moved east of Khon Kaen to run a farm steading mainly goats and growing mushrooms. Met Noi a couple of times around 2014 2016. Im still in the province but never go to Khon Kaen. Not the same as before, pretty desolate and no spark. Last visit was 2017. Your haunts were taking me step by step on my walk around the bars. Very similar. Svens corner was sold on and the last I knew was what it looks like now, a Thai restaurant and think you can still sit at the bar on the outside. No1 Bar was my first bar as I stepped off the bus. Dave is indeed Scottish and lived as a postman in NZ. It was a joy to chat and drink with a fellow Scotsman. I stayed in the city 2013-2016 next door to the new Tawandaeng. It was a busy night life scene with many bars, live music and eateries on the roadside opposite. Loved it but burnt out. Took up the outdoor lifestyle and live at my house in the sticks content with the been their done it attitude no need to further explore. Hope you enjoyed your visit, you certainly have a good memory. The Silver Bullet was mainly for lady pleasures and obviously the police had a lucrative hand in it. Thanks for the walk around.
The sign at the "Silver Bullet" I translate as Pupe's Kitchen.
Ciao ciao Den, mi chiamo Sam sono italiano e vivo pure io a khon kaen, non pubblichi più video?
StalagTITEs hold TIGHT to the ceiling is how I remember the difference.
Thailand is not a Tipping country for some rude tourists but local people, they give a tip I’m a local Thai people And Tip or not Tip is just show that your parents educate you to have manners or not From my social background My friends and my family Tipping 5-20THB for restaurants 50-100THB if order a lot Tipping 20-50THB for taxi Tipping 20-50THB for housekeeping Tipping 100THB for massage therapist,Tour guide Donate at least 20-100THB when you visit temple And who don’t give Tips It’s show that you have narrow heart Because 90-95% of service in Thailand they got less wage, more service many people they’re exhausted very much but they still got same wage In Thai culture they don’t say Tip They just give more and say ‘Mai Tong Thon Pee Hai ไม่ต้องทอนพี่ให้’ it’s mean i don’t wanna accept change i wanna give you) and they don’t say ‘Tip’ please don’t told that loudly, sometimes the business owner will got all Tips instead of people who service you And if someone don’t accept your Tip Just buy something/food give them It’s a manner from my society
😂😂😂
it occurs to me you might be able to make the mic more directional by wrapping a funnel of paper around it, or a cut in half water bottle? or for a real directional, a short bit of PVC as it's thick and dense. MIGHT cut out much of the ambient noise but you might have to get it "in your face :)
Thailand still save cost of living and friendly country. No friend No Problems..For me !! I am Thai. I like the heat 😂
How did you originally end up I'm thailamd?
Crease city not good you are so premetiv MAN
Did this today in nakhon ratchasima at bkk hospital 2,600 both ears top service on all levels straight to ent without any wait. Doctor used a combo of scraping and water suction not painful but not very comfortable, but man the second the plug is loose is pure relief..
Hey there, Andy here, wondering if you are around for a meet up.currently hanging out in KKC. I think you came to my wife and I wedding in 2015. Anyway, I am here until 30 April.
Fantastic video! I can perfectly relate to everything you have described, in my case I moved to your country. I'll be visiting Udon Thani very soon, I am debating whether I should go to Khon Karen or Nong Khai for a day trip 😊
Excellent video seeing KK at night. Some of my best times have been while I was living in KK. I can't really explain the vibe, and why it suits me well, but I look forward to getting back there and experiencing it again.
Hey Den. I am also a vlogger and will be doing a city hop in Isaan in about 2 weeks. Will you be in Khon Kaen? Cheers, Patrik
I lived in Khon Kaen for a few months in 1968-9. I keep looking for familiar things (besides the Kosa) in videos and see not a one. Population was around 35,000. The only nightclubs I remember were the Kosa (restaurant by day…club at night), and the Silver Star. (There was also a little grubby GI bar, the Jun Pen, which the owner gave up and converted to a ramwong hall before I was gone-soldiers were too rowdy for him) There was a lovely outdoor restaurant on the Beung Kaen Nakhorn where my friends liked to go after work for beer, followed by dinner. ..looks like the whole area around the Beung has become a running path with food carts.
1650THB / night is WAY overpriced.
i like your teaching style and cultural exposure to thailand....keep up great videos
We are moving up there in a few months. I’m super excited about it.
We live 35km South of udon Thani l think you will like it
Just leave. They are going to drive you out, anyway. You are in Xeno Land. They'll smile as long as they have got your wallet.
Yes, you would have been FAR better off in a country in South America, where you can own land and get permanent residency within the first two years. That way, you could have created both a stable life and a stable future. You are not allowed to, in xeno Thailand. (I made the same mistake at 30 but will NEVER spend a penny in Thailand ever again.) Incidentally, I was fluent in spoken Thai by the third year and then started daily with the kids' books that you mentioned and learned the writing fairly quickly. This got me some paid translation work.
The most stupid RUclipsr. He is bored and boring. No respect for other property and workers.
You suddenly disappeared from here; hoping you are OK. Enjoyed your videos
Regarding TM30 report I am wondering if it would be better I rent a condo under my name or my girlfriend's name 🤔
I have visited Pattaya, Hua Hin, Phuket, Bangkok, Koh Samui but is in Khon Kaen that I will retire this year 😃
I am going to retire im Khon Kaen this year 😊
Dan where did you go ????
Hey Den, Hope your doing good bud
Missing your vids! Hope all is well with you!
Ah, Sevens Corner bar... favourite expat bar
ok so 1 week in udon thani for jomtien for a month great price
Great videos Den. I'm a new subscriber after enjoying a few of your videos. I am in much the same position you were in - Thai wife, soon to go and live permanently in Thailand, will teach English part time and need to learn Thai. I accept it as a long slow process, and am learning to read Thai. Everyone has a different idea on how best to approach the challenge of learning a new language, and provide conflicting tip, but I think everyone who is motivated finds their best way. I like your emphasis on tones, and have experienced that lack of understanding from mispronunciation. Look forward to viewing more of your videos.
Keep it up Den better than paying for the gym .. keep up the gud work im not far from you about 40 clicks.
Looks nice man gunna try soon.
Ok den how much do you live on per month and how do you make money in Thailand
I was wrong, it was the Brick House, I had a pint of Guinness in the Irish Clock, which i believe is now owned by the owner of.....The Brick House.
Yes. And he also owns Cheese to Meet You
Hi, you just drove past our village on the right after the turn off for Nong Saeng 2316. and i'm going to find out when you finally get your pint of Guinness if it was in the Irish Clock?
What happened ? No new video's ?
The Day & Night complex is always a joy to visit. It's so heartwarming seeing all of the older folk spending time with their granddaughters there.
Long time not see you. What’s going on? Anyway, happy new year.
+2 weeks already, no comments answered and no new videos 🤔 Now you have me worried guys, hope you 2 are ok 🙏 HNY 2024 🙏
We are worried also because you are suddenly no longer here. We understand more than 100 percent that the previous pace was unsustainable. Kohn Kaen as a city and the people living in it, just like everywhere and with everyone, makes it almost impossible to produce something new every day. But now suddenly nothing at all. That you told about a psychological relapse and that a number of viewers immediately used it to tell their own story, that is a shame, but the nature of the human animal. I hope that you are OK and that you may be doing something different, professionally or in your spare time, that will give you plenty of satisfaction, mayby with less stress and pressure (?) on yourself. We will miss you and your engaging, confident appearance and sympathy for your viewers. Thanks for all your wise insights, tips and video's about Kohn Kaen and Thailand. But please also keep in mind it is and remains Thailand.... We hope to meet you this year (accidently?) in Kohn Kaen. Do not forget the sabai, sabai and Sanook. Happy New Year and take care❤❤❤
I have left emails & facebook messenger messages without response. Like you Rudy, I picked up on that too ❤️ I do hope Den will be otherwise occupied and be able to put our minds at rest 🤞❤️
@@foszen I don't exactly understand what you are saying here, are you suggesting those of us who wrote longer comments (I always did) to what he discussed in his videos, also the personal ones, have something to do with Dennis being missing or offline now? In that case I feel terrible. I might never write a comment again. However, as far as I know Dennis, I think he appreciated my (and anyone's') comments. Even the personal and deeper ones. I hope he is only taking a break, or maybe found out that these youtube videos just weren't enough to make a living, and maybe he went back to working as a teacher. I hope there is an explanation, because I'm really worried too. Any sign of life would be most appreciated.
Dear Ms. Salina, I don't understand why you take my mail personally. I mainly looked at Mr. Dennis's work and rarely or almost never read the comments. Except during the period when he stopped for a while and read how some people react when someone wants to tell them about their health.With something that usually does not help them: starting to talk about themselves as a form of well-meaning comfort. I don't even know if you did that and I never noticed you in the comments. Our joint concern now is that everything is well with Dennis In the hope that he has found a reason and a good alternative for himself. Or maybe he's just on vacation. I wish the very best for him
@@foszen Thanks for clarifying, Rudy. I am sorry if I misunderstood. I once told Dennis that his channel is one of my favourite youtube channels, and I believed we both enjoyed commenting back and forth. Always with a smile. Now I'm not so sure anymore. He always has some long answers, and I appreciated that. What I am concerned about is that all these comments (from and to everyone), might have tired him out, and that he always felt obligated to answer them with so many words. I told him he maybe shouldn't always answer every one of them, for his own sake, that might after a while come out more as a job, than fun for him. If you understand what I mean. And now none of us have heard from him since. I have missed his videos and his lovely wife. Yes, I also think it might have been a mistake to turn the channel into daily videos, both for his sake, and for ours. Let us hope all this has a perfectly reasonable explanation. Thank you for showing concerns for him. We all hope to hear from both of them soon again. Sarlina.
