What a cozy and beautiful city!! The shopping, food, scenery, etc!! Thank you guys for this wonderful and informative video! Looking forward to seeing the next one!! This is definitely on my bucket list!!
Thank you for your welcome and thank you for watching! I'm sure our boys will get nervous for your comment haha. We look forward to discovering more of everything here in Thailand. Have a good day!
Welcome to Thailand. I hope you can sort your long-term visa out. A little correction though, those ducks are free. Same with the ones at the Lumpini Park.
Many cant grasp how BIG Bangkok is.. Its more than 5 times size than New york and have around 5-6 million more people than Newyork.(many work in bangkok but are written home in other parts of Thailand) And the best? Bangkok is between 65-70%(or more) cheaper to live in very comfortable permanent than most major American/Canadian citys and ALOT safer too Heck i live a MONTH here on what my buddy pays in rent for a small old rundown apartment in NY
Actually, Thai people aren't scared of going to jail but rather they are more afraid of bad Karma. Thailand is a predominantly Buddhist country and they believe in Karma which means that if they do good deeds, good things will happen to them, and vice versa. Thai people are more afraid of getting bad Karma than jail so they commit themselves to being a good moral person.
Welcome to BKK to your family!!! BKK is a wonderful city if you like keeping busy and don't mind the tropical weather. I spent over 5 years in the US doing my studies, and when I got back to my home town here I felt bombarded with malls, shops, abd all types of eateries. Needless to say yoy can have continuous fun but expenses can get out of hand if you're not careful. I was that, but luckily I was still single at the time. I hope you get to explore the various sections of the city to get a better understanding of how life flows in this city. Like the Sukhumvit is the main shopping strip, while Satorn is the financial/business area. Yaowarat is China Town proper of BKK. Pahurat area is India Town. There's also a Little Arabia in the Nanna area of Sukhumvit Road. Outlet malls are further out, near Suvannabhumi Int'l Airport called Siam Outlet Mall, similar in design to other oulet malls in other countries. For wholesale priced clothing, you get them at Pratunam Plaza. There's a huge variety of cheap but fair to good quality clothing there. It is near Central World Mall. Finally, you've probably already heard of Chattuchak Open Market already, which is probably the largest of its kind in Asia if not more. I could go on, but I think I'd run on too long here. Have a GREAT TIME in BKK!!! Oh, I just subscribed.
We just lived in Costa Rica for 7 years so we can handle the tropics! Thanks for all the recommendations and yes i (Chris) went to Chattuchak back in 2006 and was blown away by it's size. We will definitely be going there and making a video to show people. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
really good video. As a Costa Rican i can understand the issue of health and prescriptions with socialized medicine. as a employee in US, working at a nonprofit organizarion which has projects in Thailand, I am surpise of the low prices vrs the modern city of Bankok
I am Thai and my Thai ID card is 30 baht which can treat every disease. It's true and covers many treatments and government hospitals are everywhere in Thailand, both in the countryside and just carry your ID card. Thai person
Hi...I'm watching form a small province in the north of Thailand and I seldom go to Bagkok so I haven't been to many interesting places there. It's a really nice VDO and I wished you'd have let your two young boys to be part of it, eg. you can ask their opinions about certain things you see on your way while exploring interesting places. We'd like hear how they think about things they're seeing, it dosen't matter what their opinion is. Anyway thank you sooooooo much for taking us along the journey.
We ALWAYS give our boys any and all opportunities to talk about whatever they want in the videos, and they usually do. If you watch many of our other videos over the past 7 years, including our most recent ones they do some sharing of their opinions occasionally. They are also teenage boys that naturally don't always want to be in the videos or speak in them sometimes, depends in the day, and that's ok! We never force them and always "let" them when they choose to want to be involved.
Oh wow thanks, we're happy you are enjoying our videos. We like to mix up the flow of our videos with talking and cinematography. Thanks for watching and thanks for the kind words! 😊🙏
Eventually! For now we need a major city fix for a while after coming from Samara! We do have lots of beautiful parks and the river to experience throughout Bangkok for a nature fix too! 😊
Ya its crazy how many malls there are! We'll be finding better food in the streets for the same price, can't wait! We're getting there, still not 100% but it will come. Thanks for watching as always
@TheDufresnes ok I will look it up!! I remember when the song I mentioned came out in the 80s and I always think of it whenever I hear about Bangkok!! 😂
Welcome to Thailand, the land of smiles if you respect us, but the land of MuayThai if anyone is not friendly. May you be happy with your second home, Thai food, Thai fruits, Thai tourism, Thai culture. Health tourism hub wellness. Thai Festivals. May God bless you.❤❤
Thank you! 🙏 We are very happy and privileged to be here to explore your fantastic country. It's been 18 years since I (Chris) have been here and there is so much I didn't get to experience then. Now with Shayna and our boys here we are excited to see and do all! God bless and thanks for watching!
Thanks, we know! Chris was here in 2006 and travelled all over. We just moved from Costa Rica where we have property 900 meters from the beach. We're taking a bit of a beach break 😊 thanks for watching!
Does the e-sim you mention require you to use a different phone number or do you continue to use your current phone number? Also, I'd like to recommend a great news program focused on Thai and regional news in English. It is done by Tim Newton, an Australian expat. It is called TNT or Tim Newton Today. Very professional and highly informative. So happy for your family. Enjoy this adventure!
Holafly is only Data in most countries, only in Europe can you get a number with Holafly. So for normal calls and text you would be using your plan from home but for anything data related it would be with your Holafly Esim. For apps like whatsapp or Line here in Thailand. Thanks, we already know of Tim's channel. Good info sometimes on it. Thanks for watching and sharing the tip!
We have 4 dogs and yes it is difficult. It's best to go on the long term rental Facebook groups (there is actually a pet friendly group) and post there. This is what Shayna did to find our place as well as others to look at.
Yes that's correct Chris has been to all of those places before. We've lived at the beach for 7 years and are taking a break from the beach life for a bit.
Come visit Thailand, Thailand is a Buddhist country. Teach not to be attached to objects Living with the present time Do as much good as you can. Believe in the law of karma. Whatever you do will get results. Thinking and living life It's not like the west coast.
Yes life is not about material objects but so many people fall into the western commercialized culture. Even here in Thailand with so many malls. Life is about experiences not things. Thanks for watching!
ถูกต้อง Be right, be good, and the results of your actions will always be good. Not now or in the future. If you do bad things, your mind will never be at peace. Because people do evil things. Like yourself who knows and has to escape the truth, afraid of the police, haha.😊🙏
@@TheDufresnes yes I agree, and we Thai have a lot of malls it's because we have very hot weather and malls have AC and Thai people love to go my friends, I'm a Bangkokian and saw a lot of malls like these since I was a child and now I'm 43 years old, those malls are just the same just some of them new but most of them just renovated to looks new. Just like the area that you guys stand on the skywalk in front of the MBK mall it was just like that since they built that BTS station about almost 30 years ago and nowadays they just renovated to looks new but the really new area and brand new shopping zone is just opposite the MBK mall called "Siam Square one" my friends that built over the old famous "Siam Square" where was the most famous legendary meeting point in Bangkok for all Bangkok teenagers since the old time to come to show and share their outfits trend and stuffs. You guys are very welcome to Bangkok😊😊🙏🙏💕💕
The malls are definitely a great escape from the heat, especially the month of April! MBK has definitely had an update on the exterior! Thank you for your welcome to Thailand and thanks for watching, more videos to come!
Yes we use Safetywing as it's the best. we have the link in the description of every video. Here's the link to save you having to look for it. You'll save a bit with the link. safetywing.com/?referenceID=thedufresnes&Ambassador
@@TheDufresnes I just left in February. Was living down in Cangregal near Soda La Pearla. I miss it for sure but my ❤️ is here in this part of the world. I’m excited for your new chapter. 🙏☺️
Where are you now If you are not in Thailand and are only visiting Thailand for a few days, it is considered very little. It's like you've just arrived at the doorstep of Thailand. Have a safe journey home. Goodbye.
Where and when did we ever say that we are only in Thailand for a few days and that we are heading "home" now? We plan to stay at least 1 year if possible so not sure where you got that idea? 🤔
I was in Bangkok twice for one month on each visit in 2023, and I did go to the Terminal 21 food court a few times. Yes, the food prices were cheap but you get what you pay for! The food portions were small and the taste was OK, not the best.
Yes unfortunately it happens in many countries, we saw it a lot on Costa Rica. It's the worst when parents have their young kids on a bike without a helmet
@@TheDufresnes I,m in Canada (I know your from B.C.) , if you wear a turban you don,t have to wear a helmut, crazy taking your life in your hands. Head injury so serious.
We lived in the Okanagan in Canada where we would get forest fires for months, 3 weeks of smog is nothing in comparison. It will suck but that's the beauty of being able to move around. We can head south and film there during that time.
For us, the thing that foreigners are shocked about is Thai people who like to help. But we are also shocked that why foreigners say things like this. Isn't this a normal thing that every human being has to do? And so it makes us afraid that if Going abroad will be Things that Thai people do are what they think people from other countries must do in the same way.
Some Americans are rude and mind their own business and don't care about helping others!! That is why Chris and Shayna are showing us how friendly people are in Thailand!! I think it's wonderful whenever I travel out of the US and go to countries where people are actually polite! Of course not everyone in the USA is rude,but lots are unfortunately!! 😢
A lot of people around the world (even the scary middle East haha) are very friendly and helpful. The media in Western countries make it out that every other country is scary or dangerous. We lived in Costa Rica for 7 years and there are a lot of similarities between Costa Ricans and Thais! Thank you for being so welcoming and happy
@TheDufresnes yes you're very welcome! Despite living in the United States, I am not going to deny all of the chaos going on in my own country! Lol There are many cities with mass shootings in the US, so not sure why the media tries to sweep it under the rug!! 🤣😂😂
Just to say welcome to Thailand again. Nice to meet and talk to you guys at the end of the clip. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for your warm welcome, friendly smile, and being in the video! It was so nice to meet you and your family/friends! 😊
@@TheDufresnes Thank you and have a great trip to the world

Welcome to Thailand. I hope you can sort your long-term visa out. A little correction though, those ducks are free. Same with the ones at the Lumpini Park.
Thank you! We are planning to get the new visa that comes out this month. Thanks for the info on the ducks, glad to know they are free to enjoy.
Welcome.
You guys edited the video beautifully.

Thank you, we plan to stay as long as we can! 😊
Omg!! All the different KitKats!! My favorite chocolate ❤!!!
soooo many!
When i lived in Bangkok, I was 20 pounds lighter. On my recent trip, I lost 4 pounds in two months. Sweating, walking, smaller portions, etc..
Yes we've lost quite a bit in the last 4 months, quitting drinking has helped plus all the walking and smaller portions like you've mentioned
New Subscriber… Retiring to BKK in one month… Great video… 🙏🏻

Is it hard to find a place to stay with three dogs?
We have 4 dogs and yes it is difficult. It's best to go on the long term rental Facebook groups (there is actually a pet friendly group) and post there. This is what Shayna did to find our place as well as others to look at.

Oh we definitely do!!! 💯😋
@@TheDufresnes thank you
Thai food is absolutely amazing! We love it and eat it every day 😋
If you guys are getting tired of the big city, check out the southern of Thailand Krabi, Phuket, and the surroundings.
Yes that's correct Chris has been to all of those places before. We've lived at the beach for 7 years and are taking a break from the beach life for a bit.
You travel to a different country. Can it be boring for a Costa Rocan?

Ya, we've been stuck at home sick and even Grab (Uber eats equivalent) is cheap.

Just wait until you get smog for three weeks then you will be missing the clean air of Costa Rica
We lived in the Okanagan in Canada where we would get forest fires for months, 3 weeks of smog is nothing in comparison. It will suck but that's the beauty of being able to move around. We can head south and film there during that time.

A lot of people around the world (even the scary middle East haha) are very friendly and helpful. The media in Western countries make it out that every other country is scary or dangerous. We lived in Costa Rica for 7 years and there are a lot of similarities between Costa Ricans and Thais! Thank you for being so welcoming and happy
@TheDufresnes yes you're very welcome! Despite living in the United States, I am not going to deny all of the chaos going on in my own country! Lol
There are many cities with mass shootings in the US, so not sure why the media tries to sweep it under the rug!! 🤣😂😂
Welcome to Thailand 🎉
