  • This video explains why we turned our backs on the UK. Why we chose to live in Pattaya. Why we love living here, and why we don't ever want to return to our home country

    Weather, food, costs, people having fun & smiling, ease of travel in the region, not getting wound up by 'our' f*ckwit politicians etc etc are all just as important for me to be trying to get my ducks in a row to make the move.

    I guarantee that the majority of guys who come to live in Pattaya will return to UK for one reason or another. Mostly lack of money, or loss of money, or relationship issues. I had nearly 20 years but had to return after my job disappeared because of COVID. So i fully understand people saying i will never go home but you need real discipline to stay the course and even then it's difficult. But great channel, i like the honesty and i wish everyone luck who's giving life a go in the city of dreams.

    Sensible stuff indeed. Money - For someone on holiday you’ll be using cash. Get a small zip up wallet and a money clip. Because back home you have become weaned off cash. So easy to drop it or allow someone to get you flustered.
    Take out only what you need
    An ATM costs around £4.50 per transaction. Wise is excellent, get your card delivered before you leave
    For cash, always TT Exchange, look for the yellow booths. Enjoy 🙂.

    Great video. I started going pattaya in 2005 the glory days it was crazy back then. I have been going thailand ever since i was lucky to hook up with a stunning thai lady in the uk for the last 14 years. I still travel back to thailand shes easy with that. My take on pattaya is its No 1 in thailand, and i have been everywhere in thailand.. The only downside is the beach isn't great. it's dirty and polluted. I wouldn't swim in there. Plus, it is not a healthy place to live tbh. That's the only downside. A close second in hua hin, it's just a bit quiter than pattaya but its a beautiful laid back area. But pattaya for me ha!

    I will try to keep it short today :p
    I understand the part where you say you don't want to go back to the UK or work but I don't know, I am looking for a job for 8 months and still not got one. I don't find it so funny or feel free.
    Way to much time to worry about 1000 things.
    I have the feeling that you two are over 50 but still young in your mind. Maybe you didn't party much in your 20-40 and you have the feeling you have to catch up.
    I am over 50 as well and have spend most of my life (until 40) in parties discos and even if sometimes i like to have party in Pattaya as well, I don't really need it anymore and sometimes need it more quiet and (sorry) smarter.
    Sure things are different if you live there instead of just making 2 weeks of holiday but I actually changed my mind from when i was young with the idea to go retire there to now where I am ready example to accept a job for 1 years with possibility to extend it.
    Anyway, it is strange that you want to party but get a gf. Why stay with one when you could have all??
    No, joking, i would sure spend a lot of time before i choose a girlfriend if I would be living there.
    About the "just go", well, i was just chatting on a famous thai dating site and seeing what the women told me, the idea to cancel my trip crossed my mind. Maybe i should not play dating sites and "just go" even if i know it will not be much better than in the dating site.

    Can you gamble online in Thailand and are there any bookmakers online where you could have a flutter on the horses or football.. All you need would be a big screen to watch the racing have a we bet online as a pass-time it could bring in customers for the bars.I did at one time think about settling in thailand but never had enough but things can go wrong if you have the money thats fine but you can be ripped of by those who will charge you more when you need help.

Pattaya is a great place but I think you get bored and don’t take up enough activities to fill up your time hence the drinking. After your health scare I thought you would calm it down a bit but then again old habits die hard. Truth hurts I suppose and you never know tomorrow.

I visited him and he had a great apartment with pool/gym and all that stuff available. He lived there not holidaying so had one big party day a week with all the trappings that nearby Pattaya provides. Rest of week he was sensible, ate out every day, few beers but nothing crazy. Everyone is different but he had a great life there. He's in Indonesia now.
