Roads and Revelations - Travel Couple
Таиланд
Добавлен 20 дек 2022
LIFESTYLE TRAVEL COUPLE!
We are a retired Aussie couple, John and Lorna. In 2023 we sold our home and most of our possessions to relocate to live the life of our dreams in beautiful Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand.
We have chosen to remove ourselves from the monetary loop of western society, one that has a person constantly having to earn money to survive.
So why not join us as we document our daily lives and travel through Thailand, on our Harley Davidson, Ultra Limited motorcycle.. occasionally by car or plane.
We plan visiting many interesting places, some of them off the beaten track. Along the way we hope to provide valuable information and many of our own revelations to others who are considering a similar lifestyle.
Please HIT the SUBSCRIBE button and join us on our crazy adventures.
Take Care and keep on keeping it real!

Is Bike or Car BETTER on a Rainy Day?
Great information guys ! We absolutely loved our visit to Chiang Mai and will return one day ❤
Thanks @@gooddifferentadventures, We are so happy 😀 you loved ❤️ Chiang Mai. It will always be here ready to greet 🙏 and amaze you on your future return. 👍🇹🇭
Hello. My Question for you is .. Would you move all over again ? We are going to move in about a year , probably to the Hua Hin area . By the way you home is very nice and love your videos thanks !
Hi and thanks for your comment and question. Yes we would do it all over again. Thailand is an excellent part of the world to live in. It takes a bit of getting used to for sure but overall we are happy to be here.
Comment here and lets build a community 😊🎉
More than worth it! Been living and visiting since i was 17, came as a nak muay, and the Thai bug caught me forever. Snakes, seen a few, biggest, well a massive python, would have been at least 5 m long, crossing the back road in Phuket, heading toward a small lake, and it had a massive belly, the other large one was my fav snakes of all, a King Cobra, it was majestic..
Thanks @@mixalis6168 great snake story. We've only seen a couple since we've been here. Would love to see a King Cobra snake, only ones we've seen have been wearing a MC patch.😂
Always knew you would love Chiang Mai. How good swimming nearly all year round. Hope you haven't run out of Revelations?🙏
Haha.. forgot to include one.. this vid was recorded a while ago.. 😊
😊😊😊
Thanks for your comment, @@lornamidlifestylediaries ,🙏🇹🇭
Great video guys there's a lot of characters in Thailand with some awesome stories
Hey there Sean, You're spot on there mate, there's no shortage of interesting characters and stories. It all adds to Thailand's dynamic. 👍🇹🇭
Good interview. So Graham lives rent free, how good. Seems like he's got plenty of skeletons in the closet, like most Kiwis🤣
Thanks Randy. It was really nice to meet up and interview Graeme.
Wow what a great episode guys thanks for sharing 🙌 such an amazing journey
Thanks appreciate your comments..😊
Thanks @gooddiffentadventures for your comment, we enjoyed sharing Graeme's story. More good interviews to come in 2025.👍🇹🇭
I rented a cross during my two week trip to Thailand a few weeks ago. Perfect car for Thailand, we were very happy with it.
Glad you enjoyed your time in Thailand and your travels. It's a great place to rent a car/scooter/bigbike and see the country. 👍🇹🇭
I saw you in Chiang Mai.
@@KittisakAumsripirom hi where abouts in Chiang Mai
Thanks for sharing your adventures looked awesome 😊
We had a blast on this ride, glad you enjoyed it! 👍🇹🇭
Wow what a fantastic show ! We would love to visit a tattoo show like that one day ! Great episode 🙌🇦🇺
The Chiang Mai show is the one to see .. thanks for the encouragement @gooddifferentadventures
Never to old ! Enjoy the celebrations HD parties are the BEST ❤
You got it! No one is ever too old to enjoy a good party.
Thanks for sharing another great episode with us ! We look forward to your adventures in 2025
We appreciate your view and we are looking forward to sharing more adventures with you in 2025. And seeing more of your vlogs @gooddifferentadventures
Merry Christmas 🎄 you two looks like you enjoyed the Christmas spirit ❤great episode
We sure did enjoy the day here in Chiang Mai, Thailand 🇹🇭.
Couldn't agree more with you about CM. I believe Hang Dong has the best hand made wood furnishings. Did you find any artefacts for your new home?
A great selection of wood art out this way. We saw a few pieces we liked but didn't purchase yet. 👍🇹🇭
Looks like you had a nice Christmas in your new home. You both are looking younger, Chiang Mai must be turning back the clock. Have a happy & safe 2025🙏
Thanks Randy it's amazing how Pad Thai makes you reverse age. Happy and safe 2025 to you also.
Merry Christmas 🎉
Merry Christmas to you too. Hope you're having a fantastic holiday season!🧑🎄🎄🇹🇭
The cooler weather is nice for roaming the Old City. Great price for the cleaning. Apart from the culture, food, locals, cost, service & scenery. What's your favourite reason for being in Chiang Mai?
Our favorite, and the first and foremost reason for even being here is "Lack of constraint". The west has become so woke and regulated.
Yes, I forget freedom
great vlog guys thank you for sharing the walk around !
@gooddifferentadventures Thanks for your comment and encouragement. We loved doing the walk around.🙏🇹🇭
One or the other, cannot be both
C'est la vie 🙏🇹🇭
You called it the Marriot😂
You're splitting hairs.....Le Meridien is a Marriot hotel
I've stayed there many times years ago, was always the Le Meridian
Stand corrected.
That hotel used to be the Le Meridian on the Kok river.
Yes it still is Le Meridien
Good content and interesting how the market is being pushed up the last house is massive, I loved the first one how it has 3 toilets. Thanks for showing us around 😊
Thanks for your encouragement. We are so glad you enjoyed the video!
Your home is far superior to that home. I know parts of Saraphi flooded, maybe it flooded there, 1yr seems a long time to build that house? Otherwise it's been sitting on the market for quite some time. The Chinese are buying up everything in Hang Dong, Chiang Mai atm just like they have in Laos😱
Glad you like where we live. No we didn't experience flooding in our part of Ban Waen though some nearby lower lying homes did. Your right there is a lot of movement happening in the house market here in Chiang Mai.
@@roadsandrevelationsYou read wrong, flooding in Saraphi. Chinese investment in Hang Dong is staggering atm & only will increase. Sell & get out before it's overrun⛩️
Great video love this house..😊
We are so glad you like it, we think it's a great house too!👍🇹🇭
So your health insurance is only the accident insurance? Do your self insure for other medical?
We consider health as a priority and do have health options in hand. Self insurance is a great way for those who have that option to set funds aside for emergencies.
What a great party that was and it was so good to meet you guys I hope we can catch up in February in Nan for my 60 th
Thanks.. will plan on that 😊
Hi Sean it was great to meet you. We are looking forward to taking a trip through to Nan and catching up again.
wow what a great place to visit thanks for sharing !
@gooddifferentadventures Thanks for watching, we loved exploring the Black House. 🇹🇭
Great video guys 😊
Thanks for the comment much appreciated.
Nice video fascinating museum. We'll check it out next time in Chiang rai
The Black house is definitely worth the visit. Thanks for your comment much appreciated 👍🇹🇭
not been to the blue temple, I will have to check it out.. How long was the trip from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai?
The Blue Temple is definitely worth a look. We loved it the Temple has great energy. The trip from Chiang Mai takes around 3.5hrs non stop, we rode for an hour had a coffee then rode another hour had a quick break then rode the remainder to Chiang Rai.
Nice share ❤new subbie here 🎉🎉🎉🎉keep up the good work and
Thanks for watching and subscribing we really appreciate it 👍🇹🇭
Great episode 😊😊
Thanks Lorna your views are very much appreciated 👍
Great episode guys loving the HD and the animal print ❤️
Thanks @gooddifferentadventures the animal print is always trying to rock front and center
Good work guys, we are doing the same next March.
Thanks @tonybluett4932 great to see another couple escaping to a better life. ✈️👍🇹🇭
Now, this is a wonderful retirement life 😁🙏
We're love'n it that's for sure👍🇹🇭
Looks great! I definitely want to own a Harley in Thailand when I retire.
We agree... Buying and riding a Harley in Thailand is a great goal to have and please keep that dream alive. Maybe we can ride together one day soon 👍🇹🇭
Great video guys 😊❤
We're glad you enjoyed it. We love your channel also ❤️👍🇹🇭
Very cool, this is what life is about !
@mixalis168 thanks for your comment. That's what we are doing, living life and keeping it real. Always looking forward to whatever adventure life brings. 👍🇹🇭
My brother bought a Honda rebel new in 09 they told him to ring the bell. 40 people were in the store. This place no1 but them
Thanks for your comment. Gotta remember new Harleys are an expensive a small niche in Thailand. If you want to see how many can turn out for a new bike take a look at our previous episode at 10.48 ruclips.net/video/Acb8gUSK0HE/видео.htmlsi=ilzLZ3s1hrEyY1HC We chose to pick up our bike just after they opened up for day.
Great vlog 😊❤
Thanks for watching, we appreciate you 👍🇹🇭
What a great episode thanks for sharing your new mods and experience to Chiang Rai ☺️ look forward to your next episode 🇦🇺
Thanks so much, we had a great time exploring Chiang Rai.👍🇹🇭
Useless without prices. Won’t be liking or subscribing. Sorry
I love my 14 inch apes on my Breakout. Lots of great mods you have done to make it yours.
The 14 inch apes are a great height. I nearly went with 16's but glad I got the 14s. Few more mods to come. It's a great feeling when you make it your own isn't it 👍🇹🇭
Seat, bars, floor board extenders are the most important items for anyone you can start with. comfort. Then suspension, front and rear, then my fav, engine mods..
We agree comfort is key, the bars have come into their own with the change in seat and the lengthened and lowered brake makes a big difference.. but suspension is a game changer too 👍🇹🇭
Great Video Guys Thank you I've not been able to get up to CNX on the bike to have that beer with you I'm defiantly in town for Bike week in dec 7 so I hope to see you there
Thanks for the comment, hope to see you there in December, always good to have a beer or two with fellow riders. 👍🇹🇭
That's the quietest Harley I've heard. Your streets near home are wide. I thought the soi dogs must have got Lorna when you arrived home by yourself, lol.
Not that quiet according to the neighbors. The ending was me doing a lap of the block before parking up. Glad your examining the minute detail.
