I have on my bucket list getting to Thailand from the UK without flying, euro star to Paris, Paris to Berlin , Berlin sleeper to Moscow , Moscow to Beijing on trans siberian , Beijing to Hanoi then bus to Thailand through Laos.
Something every Brit ought to know if you are planning to retire to Thailand, you will receive your pension but it will be frozen, you will not receive the annual state pension increase..
Inspirational stuff to think you’ve worked all your life and your now able to retire and follow your dream. Not many can look back and say they I did it. I lived my dream. Good luck with everything mate
It’s a really interesting life story you’ve got, there’s definitely a lot of significance leaving on the ferry from there for you. You should be very proud of pursuing what you want do in life and not letting anything hold you back, you preserved with the sale of your house when others would have given up and now you’ll get what you deserve 👍🏼 good luck with everything 🚀
Very cool! I'm happy for you. I left England in 2006, lived in Mexico for 3 years, moved to Dallas, Texas. Left the U.S. in June 2022 for Thailand. Just finished building a house near Khon Kaen. Planning to stay here.
Well Done mate Your an inspiration and a harmless lovely bloke who has made i believe the correct decision i wish you all the happiness mate. Keep the vlogs coming
Omg, when I watched that boat moving off I felt emotional myself. Good luck with your future mate and I look forward to being on that journey with you.
I'm so happy for you. Yeh !!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊 you did it !!!! A wonderful new life awaits you. Love the videos and I'm excited to see your travels. I'm a fellow brit living in Canada 🇨🇦. I made the move 21 years ago and as much as I miss my family in the UK I have no regrets moving. There is a big world out there for us to explore. Good luck my friend !!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Mate.. must have been a weird feeling finally leaving.. what an achievement.. you made it happen for yourself and the excitement is only just beginning.. well done mate
I just want to wish you the best life ever from here on out... Man i got emotional myself just watching you walk down the road chatting away, Dude I'm so happy for you 💙
Well done! I bet you'll be a lot more emotional when the journey ends (part 1). Pleased for you. & looking forward to watching your journey. What an adventure hey! 🙂
If you contact a shipping company they let people travel in cargo ships. It's much cheaper than a cruise liner. Also there's always the trans-Siberian or trans-Mongolian railways but there are some visas and stuff to navigate.
Well done and good luck. I will be watching you on your travels. I got the ferry from Harwich to Esbjerg in Denmark a few times. No longer running though. All the best 🎉🎉
Merry Christmas & all the luck in the world to you,Try to do a collaboration with Sean when you get back. That would be a great watch & a great way to build up your subs!
Rocket travels is doing the full phileas fog something we all have a dream about at some stage in our life safe journey and don’t just jump on a plane when Europe ends !
What a buzz! I had a trip like this all planned in2019 and then C*vid happened and put the mockers on that.. life happened after that and the result is I’m yet to do this trip. I think it’s amazing what you’re doing, please give us loads of videos and if possible an idea of costs as you go. Travel well!
Rocket doing it Phileas Fogg style round the world in 80 days sort of 😂 have fun making new memories that older you will be glad you made…….Oh and Happy Crimbo 🎄👍
goodluck big man and merry xmas and have a chang for me at midnight new yrs eve and best wishes in 2026 would love to see more back street market vids etc
I have a mate who absolutely loves Thailand too, he goes twice a year, what are your reasons for leaving? I'm always interested in why people leave their home country, never been to Thailand, although a bit too warm/humid for me I think. Wishing you all the best with you move and new life in Thailand.
Fair play to you mate leave with a adventure I live in Bangkok from Streatham originally interested to know how much more it costs than a flight have a great Xmas
Hi I love your channel 2 reasons 1 I lived in philipines 3 years and want to go back 2 I now live Rushden and saw one of your videos earlier this year if only I could have met you then...I did see a video where you had bought your condo I think in Thailand . Is this above video before you moved or is it a recent visit and your going back? Keep your vlogs going it's interesting ..regards from paul
I'm 54 in March n what ur doing is starting to appeal to me, mortgage paid in 5 yrs no wife no kids why would anyone stay in this country especially after starmers announcement that if we don't like it then the doors open
Best of luck to you . Start a new chapter of your life in Hua Hin. I remember starting my journey by train , I ended up living in Hua Hin . He who dares wins . Keep a clear head and you will reap the benefits .
Have I missed something? - I thought you went to live in Thailand 12 months ago. Or is this your second attempt to leave the UK after an unsuccessful 1st attempt?

You can actually get trains all the way to Thailand if you wanted. It'll take you a month at least but it can be done if you wanted to avoid planes.
Well done to you, hopefully something I plan to do in the near future.

So many good trips from Harwich when I served in Germany in the olden days .. I have lived in Thailand for 30 years, keep laughing mate !!

Great cabin, I'll be interested in these travel costs, sounds like a proper adventure. Did you say you flew home with SAS for £250 bud?
Fair play to you mate leave with a adventure I live in Bangkok from Streatham originally interested to know how much more it costs than a flight have a great Xmas
Superb!
Hi I love your channel 2 reasons 1 I lived in philipines 3 years and want to go back 2 I now live Rushden and saw one of your videos earlier this year if only I could have met you then...I did see a video where you had bought your condo I think in Thailand .

I would be crying if I had to go back to the UK certainly not leaving the place that's for sure !!
You missed the rest of what it said on that sign - "Harwich gateway to the Orient"
Watching this in a taxi from BKK airport to the Landmark in Bangkok 😂😂👍🍺
I thought Uk has direct ferry line Harwich-Bangkok. Apparently not, what a disappointment
Good luck boy, takes some guts. 😢
So good
I'm 54 in March n what ur doing is starting to appeal to me, mortgage paid in 5 yrs no wife no kids why would anyone stay in this country especially after starmers announcement that if we don't like it then the doors open
Don't drink everyday you will be fine, I lasted with a Thai wife 7 years my fault it didn't last.
I had a feeling not going that way
You keep leaving & coming back .....rocket, man 😂
My son is in Berlin for Christmas
Man up rocket travels 😂
Why are you going via Holland I don't understand
When i first saw this i thought....fek me he's walking to Thailand ,
Do you have a family in Thailand
Lucky Man👊🛳🛫
well that's a different way to travel to Thailand
Best of luck to you . Start a new chapter of your life in Hua Hin. I remember starting my journey by train , I ended up living in Hua Hin . He who dares wins . Keep a clear head and you will reap the benefits .
Have I missed something? - I thought you went to live in Thailand 12 months ago. Or is this your second attempt to leave the UK after an unsuccessful 1st attempt?
Thought you left once already ?
