I agreed 👍 I have no fucking clue what a burning season mean and here I am come from Myanmar originally but live in US. Many European did this burning season RUclips idk what the fuck they’re talking about other than you. They don’t explain when, why and how? Thank you!
Thanks for being truthful about the situation here. Not many Vloggers talk about the smoke in depth. A lot of it comes down to; it's much easier/cheaper to pull out a lighter and set fire than it is to remove crop stubble, leaves, trash ETC. EVERY year from the central to the local government, they start programs announcing how to prevent burning, how large the fines will be, alternatives, ETC and every year it's the same.
It really is an issue, it even creeps down here to Bangkok from time to time. I like your air filter, that is a great, simple design. I have three Dyson filters in my house just to keep the indoor air breathable. Looking forward to the start of your bike adventure.
Great and informative video Paddy. Thanks for sharing. My daughter was born in Chiang Mai in January... we’ve not been out the house much since! 😢 Looking forward to venturing down South for a bit and of course those first rains of the monsoon season!! 🙏🏼♥️🌧 Take care!
That Intro was pure greatness 😂 Seriously though, thanks for sharing this video. It’s an important thing to spread awareness on, not just for tourists but primarily the air quality for the locals. We visited Northern Thailand the last two years in February and March and it was rough. Sore throat and sinus issues after only 4 days. Definitely need a good n95 mask 😷 during the Smokey season 💨
I am hearing BAND AID 2021 with those lyrics..... truly raw and touching! However yes, that smoke up north is dreadful! Was there 4 years back in Northern Thailand and we were just leaving early March and our last 2-3 days were just challenging. Even the people out on the streets at night were struggling. It further escalates your joys in kick-starting you adventure! Great vlog Paddy!
great video, thanks so much, I'm planning to move to Thailand for longer term and bringing my pets with me and this smoky season is starting to scare me a bit !
Its hellish during this time of the year in CM. I understand that they have high incidences of respiratory problems in the area as well. Definitely dont come during smoky season. Thank you for this informative vid.
Great video, thanks for being so informative. I have watched videos from other people about Chiang Mai but this is the first one I have seen about smoky season.
Hi Paddy ! Thanks for your smoky season video, good to know because I wanted to visit Thailand and planning to do sightseeing but I have mild asthma. Take care! Loved watching your shows!!!!👌👌👌❤️❤️❤️from Down Under🦘🦘🦘
Thanks for this Paddy. We are moving to Chiang Mai to teach in July and your videos are really helpful. We both agree you are much more engaging than the other Chiang Mai you tubers we have found- must be the teacher in you!
Very informative video. I have not seen this subject come up in any other Thai channel on RUclips. I live in Colorado and we have forest fires often enough during spring and summer. But the air quality is nowhere near as bad as what you document in your clip....thanks..
555 buddy loved the intro, your talk voice and then the singing 😂 Bud the yearly smoke was very terrible this year as far as i have been told by others. So good you made a video about it 👊 The past 5 hours was Paddy Doyle cathing up time and i just fininshed another 13 video's buddy. Thanks, got to know Paddy a little more 👍 You are now my nr1 thailand vlogger buddy, mister CEO Chris Parker just got down to nr2. Sorry Chris but i will keep watching buddy, seen them all 😉 Anyhow mr new nr1 Paddy Doyle, see you in the next one 👊
I really enjoy videos like this too, that try to explain quite simply all the facets of a problem (causes, how to act when you are confronted to it, what it feels like). We do not live in Wonderland on this Earth, so while it's good to find the positive and fun aspects in everything, it 's also good to have videos that show those aspects too. And anyway, with your style, it's always enjoyable to watch and informative, good or bad stuff
Thailand 🇹🇭 is really amazing and always on the top of my Travel list ! Thanks for sharing this wonderful video 😁 Cheers from a travel RUclipsr from Switzerland 🇨🇭
Thank you very much for the information. It is very useful for our next trip to Thailand after the pandemic. By the way very beautiful voice and very funny lyrics 😁
Super impressed by your song!! Smoke is so hard to deal with, thank you for sharing. Washington state has only had to deal with 3-4 months in the summer that last few years... but nothing like what California goes through.
Check out the air purifiers for sale on lazada, they cost 600baht, very good. Measured with PM2.5 meters. Don't get the fancy display, just the 6 buttons one. I have tested them and they are the best in my opinion. Get yourself a Xiaomi or other PM2.5 meter so you can see the room PM2.5 level, make sure it's under 20ppm.
Great useful info as usual ~ big thanks! So, is there a place u suggest to retire in Thailand? i.e. June to October Chiang Mai, Nov. to end of May elsewhere?
Ive been in Nakon Sawan province for 15 yrs...we're due an influx of Thais from Issan from the North East of Thailand ( bit like fruit pickers back home in UK )...to cut and burn the sugar cane fields..but last couple of years i have noticed they are starting to be replaced by mechanical sugar cane cutters...because the sugar cane leaves are quite sharp..they set fire to the sugar cane fields..to get rid of the sharpness of the leaves and surplus overgrowth and snakes before they can cut the cane..and then they burn any surplus ready to cultivate the next crop..but with the mechanical cutters there is no need to burn before cutting...but by doing it this way its taking the livihood away from the many Issan that rely on this method to make ends meet...its the same as back home...no more corner shops..they been takin over by 7-11 and such....sad but true...😉
Hey Paddy thanks for the more informative reasons of the smoke in Thailand. I remember the difference in the season. We came in December and January and then came back in April and it was horrific. By the way love the vocals on the background music😜
Fab video Paddy, Loved the singing! Very comical spin to the video, it’s great how transparent you are being and always good to know these tips and will come in handy when we visit Thailand in the future
I find it strange that everyone calls it a season and say its for 4 or 5 months then say it's starts around November and last till May. That's not a season, that's half the year or more.
The air in Bangkok has been horrible this year as well - 150-170 AQI many days since late December. Finally seems to be getting better. So horrible that they don’t tackle this issue. Good song as well. Took me a few seconds to realize it was you singing that. A bit of the Pogues vibe.
Exactly what week in February does this start? I have the travel bug to visit from U.S..All I need is 1 week in Chiangmai. Never been but I am an art lover.
I like Blueair myself as it moves a lot of air through filter. An efficient filter that doesn’t move the air is as good as not having one. Alternatively, you can use standard cheap square fan and tape hepa filter to the intake side. That’s going to be as good as any filter and they’re super cheap to make.
Hahahaha we were singing your song for hours after watching this! 😂 Too funny! Can't believe you leave so soon already, so exciting! Looking forward to the adventures! Cheers buddy!
Great video. I challenge you to do something about this with me next year after your trip through Thailand. You are a teacher and you can convey a message very well to people. The fact that many people are responding to the music you have made means that you have potential gold in your hands. Make it a full lyrics in English and Thai. And make a video clip of the song. You can create awareness and earn money with it. I hope you want to think about it. I am also looking forward to your trip through Thailand because you have become one of my most favorite RUclipsrs in a short time. Stay safe and stay healthy. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
@@PaddyDoyle. yes I know, but it's really good. The past has often proven right when I predicted that something was going to be successful. 9 out of 10 I was right. Believe me, Paddy, you have potential gold in your hands. Do you know the story behind Kenny Rogers' song Lady? Just look it up, they had 1 line and a Melody, he ultimately made millions with it. The song was created within one evening in a hotel room toilet 😂
EXCELLENT video, Paddy! Best video on the subject yet. I plan to move south each year, built into the plan for return. Never again staying in that mess!
@@PaddyDoyle. FYI, there is no need to burn in order to grow the mushrooms. They grow naturally. It is just easier to SEE them on the blackened ground when they grow. It's cheating, and works fine in areas like Northwestern America which is wet most of the time. But not good in a place like CM.
Might see you in the deep south of Thailand next month Paddy as I'm escaping Chiang Mai and doing a bike tour around there for a couple of weeks or maybe longer! Love the music. Great vid.
Very talented there Paddy next we will see you on Thailand’s got talent lol 😜 I remember our first time to Bangkok we went during Songkran & OMG it was soooooo bad I vowed never to go back to Bangkok, until our next trip which was in the September that was perfect 😍
Hi paddy,I’ve been up north when the place has been in smoky season.we have some pretty nasty bush fires here in Victoria.melbourne has been under smoke for weeks at a time.are there any warnings to ppl with asthma etc.sometimes subsistence farming can have negative impact on the local environment.but local farmers been doing it a long time.look forward to seeing the country from the back of a bike 🏍
great video man... I created a similar video when I lived up in chiang mai on my old english youtube channel. I flew with my paramotor through the burning rice fields and I couldn't find my way back to the runway because visibility was so bad so I had to fly down and find the main road to follow back to the runway. btw. I'm really looking forward for your road trip through thailand. I did a similar trip with my selfmade camper and drove through thailand. We should meet up for a beer or so somewhen :D
I have known about the smokey season but good to know when it is the worst and how you cope with it. But more important Paddy, when will your 1st album be out and will you be touring the world promoting it? Can we get it on itunes? spotify? 🤞🏍🎵🎶 Oh also when the bike upgrade happen?
Smoky season is also caused by burning corn crops and sugarcane. Even Hawaii, what’s left of the sugarcane industry still burns sugarcane before harvest. It burns off all the excess leaves and foliage leaving just the stock.
Well I was really considering getting apartment there but as asthmatic this is really a deal breaker if its 4-5 months. 1-2 month would sort of get by some how but this is just too much
@@PaddyDoyle. Mark Weins. I know he makes strange yummy face, but he seems really nice, and he has over 6 millions subscribers. When Sunny Side ( not his real name), from BEST EVER FOOD REVIEW was starting out, he has a hard time gaining viewers & subscribers. As soon as he met up with Mark, you know, doing a few clips with Mark, a few month after that, lo and behold, he now has over millions views and millions subscribers. Sunny is living in Vietnam. He's from the USA. Mark's base is in Bangkok. Go ahead, hit up or meet up with him and do a clip together. Mikey Chan, who is now living in Dallas, TX, also made a few clips with Mark, Mikey become such a hit after, he has enough money to buy a house in Up State New York, and bought an apartment in New York for his parents. An apartment in New York! Imagine how much money that is.
Hi! Thanks for the video! I would love your advice. I will fly to Chiang Mai on 20 Feb and planning to rent a car and drive all around northern Thailand for 2 weeks. Do you think the haze will ruin this trip and I should cancel/reschedule? At that time of the year, is it too bad being in nature? breathing-wise but also overall enjoying our vacation-wise. Or does it get bad March onwards? It would be heart breaking getting there all the way from Greece and just trying to avoid the smoke throughout our trip.
Lyrics = Oh no - Oh Sh!t - Holy Moly - Smokey Season - Chiang Mai - Thailand
🤣😂🤣
🤣 Great
Nice lyrics good work
Can you tell me when the single comes out? 😅
Best. Song. Ever!
You ain't seen nothing bud - try kuala lumpur during haze season - you cant even see across to the other side of the street. - After 1 year of Covid, I have been watching channels like this and thinking... how on earth did I become so negative about S.E Asia. - oh yea - now I rememeber
I want this as ringtone!!!
You have the gift of gab of being entertaining and educational at the same time. It's also refreshing to see an expat giving a non sugacoated opinion of your Thailand experience.
cheers
Thanks Paddy. You're the first RUclipsr to explain in detail about the burning season. Excellent video as usual, entertaining and informative 👍.
Thanks 👍
I agreed 👍 I have no fucking clue what a burning season mean and here I am come from Myanmar originally but live in US. Many European did this burning season RUclips idk what the fuck they’re talking about other than you. They don’t explain when, why and how? Thank you!
Thanks for being truthful about the situation here. Not many Vloggers talk about the smoke in depth. A lot of it comes down to; it's much easier/cheaper to pull out a lighter and set fire than it is to remove crop stubble, leaves, trash ETC. EVERY year from the central to the local government, they start programs announcing how to prevent burning, how large the fines will be, alternatives, ETC and every year it's the same.
Same thing happen to Malaysia and Singapore from Indonesia farm burning and the monsoon wind, sometimes schools have to close down.
oh man that sucks
Thanks! Your warning about the burning season In Chaing Mai in March immediately altered my travel plans.
No worries!
Paddy has a great voice. The smokey season jam is fire.
😂💜🙏🇹🇭
this comment and the song had me LMAO 🤣
It really is an issue, it even creeps down here to Bangkok from time to time. I like your air filter, that is a great, simple design. I have three Dyson filters in my house just to keep the indoor air breathable. Looking forward to the start of your bike adventure.
yeah dude it's freaking awful without filters!
@@PaddyDoyle. a few years ago it got really bad in Bangkok and I got an industrial 3M mask with dual P100 filters.
Great and informative video Paddy. Thanks for sharing. My daughter was born in Chiang Mai in January... we’ve not been out the house much since! 😢 Looking forward to venturing down South for a bit and of course those first rains of the monsoon season!! 🙏🏼♥️🌧 Take care!
yeah best to stay in doors eh!
That Intro was pure greatness 😂 Seriously though, thanks for sharing this video. It’s an important thing to spread awareness on, not just for tourists but primarily the air quality for the locals.

great video, thanks so much, I'm planning to move to Thailand for longer term and bringing my pets with me and this smoky season is starting to scare me a bit !
Thailand Yearly Distaster? ;) Love your dark and gloomy theme song, lol.
So grateful for your video. Saves me from traveling there during burning season.
Smokey season, the reason I no longer live in Chiang Mai. So sad.
INDEED
Its hellish during this time of the year in CM. I understand that they have high incidences of respiratory problems in the area as well. Definitely dont come during smoky season. Thank you for this informative vid.
Great video, thanks for being so informative. I have watched videos from other people about Chiang Mai but this is the first one I have seen about smoky season.
very informative, kind of put me off living in Chiang Mai unfortunately but thanks for sharing this. Check out the auto captions very funny.

I used to live in Delhi and it has really bad air pollution in winter months which was similarly unpleasant. Enjoy your grande tour.
OMG Paddy! I love the song so much I start singing it with you. Awesome video btw.
Thanks for sharing this info
I actually do very long runs, with an N95 mask, during Thailand's smoky season of Hell. If you treat it like running at altitude, it's doable.
Very informative video. I have not seen this subject come up in any other Thai channel on RUclips. I live in Colorado and we have forest fires often enough during spring and summer. But the air quality is nowhere near as bad as what you document in your clip....thanks..

Lol Paddy got the 🎤X-Factor 👏
Btw very useful and informative Vlog x
Yay! Thank you!
Thank you for explaining what smokey season is. Was always wondering about it when you were speaking about it in your videos.
My pleasure
Very helpful Vlog, Thanks from Toronto Canada
I am Thai and live in Chiang Mai. Love your video. Thanks 🙏💕
You're welcome
Thank you very much for the information. It is very useful for our next trip to Thailand after the pandemic. By the way very beautiful voice and very funny lyrics 😁

Super impressed by your song!!
Smoke is so hard to deal with, thank you for sharing. Washington state has only had to deal with 3-4 months in the summer that last few years... but nothing like what California goes through.
I appreciate that
Great job and info. Looking into that filter as the air in Tak is horrendous too.
Thanks
Great video, very informative. I recall being there one year and it was a bit of a downer alright Mostly love CM. Avoid during this time is best
I agree
The whole situation is a completely mess. The last week was horrible 🤮
100%

I'm really enjoying your input and travels , keep it up , thanks 😊
Thanks for the video! Do you know if there are any efforts by government or environmental groups to change this situation?
they seem to do somethings...what exactly I am not sure
Very cool paddy D and great Video. I might end up in rural Chang rai so very interesting to k ow
my pleasure

You need a t-shirt that says Paddy Doyle on it for your merch store.
Very informative, TY! I had just started to think that I should look outside of Chang Mai for a starter home base, but it's doable.
Good to know
I like the singing intro :-)
Haha thanks
Best video on the smokey season I've seen. great job.
Thanks 👍
Loving all your videos Paddy!! I subscribe to a lot of Thai RUclipsrs and must say you are the funniest! Can’t wait for your upcoming adventure! 🇹🇭
Awesome thank you!
Patty I think you should get a side gig as a background singer mate Lol u r gold
Lots of love from ur mate from Melbourne Australia

Very talented there Paddy next we will see you on Thailand’s got talent lol 😜 I remember our first time to Bangkok we went during Songkran & OMG it was soooooo bad I vowed never to go back to Bangkok, until our next trip which was in the September that was perfect 😍
Yeah when it's clear it's paradise
Hi paddy,I’ve been up north when the place has been in smoky season.we have some pretty nasty bush fires here in Victoria.melbourne has been under smoke for weeks at a time.are there any warnings to ppl with asthma etc.sometimes subsistence farming can have negative impact on the local environment.but local farmers been doing it a long time.look forward to seeing the country from the back of a bike 🏍
Oh wow!
This song ah ah can't take it anymore :)
Thats fucking hilarious mate your song. Very original in comparison to every RUclipsr out there. BTW not a hilarious subject but great content.
cheers mate, tryin to lighten the mood
great video man... I created a similar video when I lived up in chiang mai on my old english youtube channel. I flew with my paramotor through the burning rice fields and I couldn't find my way back to the runway because visibility was so bad so I had to fly down and find the main road to follow back to the runway. btw. I'm really looking forward for your road trip through thailand. I did a similar trip with my selfmade camper and drove through thailand. We should meet up for a beer or so somewhen :D
sounds rad dude!
Your mannerisms and laugh remind me of Ricky Gervais :)

100%
He's a cross between Hugh Grant & Ricky Gervais.

me too
Learn something new about the rush to get the second yield by the farmers. Thank you for your research.
That was all Glen 😉
@@PaddyDoyle. What is Glen's youtube channel name?
Awesome work Paddy.
Thanks
You need a full on Bane-style mask to ride your Dream around town vlogging...Mad Max Chang Mai edition 🤣😎🤙
haha!
I have known about the smokey season but good to know when it is the worst and how you cope with it. But more important Paddy, when will your 1st album be out and will you be touring the world promoting it? Can we get it on itunes? spotify? 🤞🏍🎵🎶 Oh also when the bike upgrade happen?
Haha thanks.. Bike video will be a week.or.two
Nice informal video was just wondering is it really bad in January for smoke or is it bearable thanks
its not the best but no where near as bad as march
Thanks for the reply
Please tell me you recorded the intro track yourself mate?
of course!
Smoky season is also caused by burning corn crops and sugarcane. Even Hawaii, what’s left of the sugarcane industry still burns sugarcane before harvest. It burns off all the excess leaves and foliage leaving just the stock.
ah really?
FL, also ..
Well I was really considering getting apartment there but as asthmatic this is really a deal breaker if its 4-5 months. 1-2 month would sort of get by some how but this is just too much
In Louisiana the sugar cane gets burned every year. Yes total pollution for miles and miles and motnhs
Are you going to visit with all the other Thailand RUclipsrs on your trip? Might be a good way to increase subs.
I might do, I don't really know many

Thank you so much Paddy. I really appreciate your channel. Not the most fun subject to do I’m sure, but super informative.
Thanks 😋
Chiang Mai has a great Songkran celebration every year....That makes it worth going there in April!
Absolutely
Does burning season go as far as bangkok ?
Yes. Smoke travels even to no burn areas
Great video and an epic song :)
haha cheers
Hi Paddy, please go to the south of Thailand during this time. Save your lungs!!!
Less than 2 weeks to go
Oh no, oh sh!t, holy moly, smokey season, Chiang Mai, Thailand
😂
The song 🤣 love it
Hi! Thanks for the video! I would love your advice. I will fly to Chiang Mai on 20 Feb and planning to rent a car and drive all around northern Thailand for 2 weeks. Do you think the haze will ruin this trip and I should cancel/reschedule? At that time of the year, is it too bad being in nature? breathing-wise but also overall enjoying our vacation-wise. Or does it get bad March onwards? It would be heart breaking getting there all the way from Greece and just trying to avoid the smoke throughout our trip.
did you go to Chiang Mai?
How was the trip in the end. Similar dates and itineraries here myself for Feb 2024
Intro was the shit!! 🎉😊 I’m mean great
Does the burning season start mid Feb? Late Feb? Or early March? Would you recommend coming to Chiang Mai in the last week of February?
No, burning season has already started by then
Paddy was that you signing in the opening part?
it was :)
