Sending love as always from newie . you, Gary, Paddy, Trev and @kingiinit inspired me during the never ending NSW lockdowns to break free and do what makes me happy. Fast forward I am now working FIFO between the hunter valley and Wongamat (that sentence in itself is a trip) You probably don't remember me, but my first visit to Jomtien in 2022 you were so sweet and talked me through my hotel quarantine and being ripped off by my Airbnb at the Riveria Jomtien (you didn't have to do that, but it shows that you're a good guy). Here's to every cold, crappy night shift that you've got me through by reminding me what I'm working for. and to proof that there are genuine people left in the world.
I was in Bangkok yesterday and I'm sure I walked past you. You do great videos and documentaries. I only recently subscribed to you. I'm impressed with how much you have going on. I look forward to more content and I'll have to checkout your older stuff. Cheers
I'll listen too & watch your stories all day long Adam. You have a view about living in Thailand that is so refreshing to hear. What comes across to me, is your honesty about all your content.
Thanks for the video and info. Last year, I lived in the Jomtien area for 6 months and my monthly budget was $3K and that's with companionship with a regular Thai lady for 3x a week without buying any LDs and barfines. I did not eat any western food due way more expensive and been eating Thai food in the market. In my early 50's now, I was planning to retire but I changed my mind in the very last second and back to work again in CA, started from scratch. Will do this again, next year.
Nice man! Find urself a great chick that doesn’t require financial support, or not completely reliant on you, take your time.. they are out there, just harder to find!
Having something to do is important even when retired, it's so easy to get caught up in... let's just say bad vice's. Good to hear and see your content. Aussie in Cambodia.
Your channel has been a bit of a buffet. And a very good one as well. Your channel is great. Keep the buffet alive and well. You exude happiness even when things are going bad, and that is your most enduring characteristic. Within a few months, you will be in the 100,000 subscriber club.
Just landed in the uk from my first time in bkk this morning, i absolutely loved the place! Absolutely mental, an attack on the senses but my god i love that city! Thanks for the recommendations Adam, im glad your happy mate!
Looking forward to your podcast with Dan....Good to have him back on this side of the planet 😊 Unfortunately I have to leave Bkk tonight and go back to cold and rainy Amsterdam 😢 (October is already booked so 153 day's and counting 😂😂😂😂) Give my regards to Dan if you see him and stay safe and healthy my RUclips friends 🙏🍺❣️
Greetings Adam. Robert here. Great stuff as always. Recovery from post Covid has sucked. Lingering effects have been no fun. Look forward to finally meeting when I return end of the year. Take care. Great hat, go Raiders!
Hi Adam, Good video! Sidewalks in Bangkok! First day, first time in Bangkok. Just got there, staying on Sukhumvit 7 walking back from the 711 and I tripped on the sidewalk and did a face plant right in front of the girls at the beer bar. Nothing like starting off a great vacation with an embarrassing move. 😅
All your vids are great value, well I mean they’re free so lol, but I do love the longer ones of say 15 mins minimum (and a lot longer than that too) the most. As always I’ll be watching regardless as with you it’s not just content it’s substance. Cheers 👌🏼 😊
I was in central London at the end of the first lockdown, I counted 8 other people on Oxford Street at 11.30 am on Friday, unheard of!people who worked in bars and restaurants were having full on conversations with me , it’s now back to business as usual , no interaction beyond serving someone . It’s the same the world over I suspect
100 % . Those that were out walking all said hello to each other and smiled ❤and less phone action, they knew that those that were out were out for a reason, they needed that hello. Now it's back to most being miserable and 90 % of heads in phones
I lived in Soho london through covid up to moving to Thailand, looking back it was great waking the streets on central london alone & yes i found many local residents who became friends back then. In fact that when i started doing videos on my own Chanel ‘slipawaywiththejoneses’
Controversial cashless in Thailand ! I’m 67 & living in london the past 5 years i’m totally with you, i love my tap & go Apple Pay and hate carrying a wallet round here. Slowly like you in finding ways to pay via my phone & my Thai bank account, interestingly even the street food has scan & pay quite a bit here in Pattaya
Thankyou man for everything, i hope to live in bangkok someday. Gonna study soon to get a bachelor and hopefully do it in 3 years. And then move to thailand with my thai girlfriend since she is now here in my country. Sadly we miss thailand a lot and we could move already and i would work hard to make money, but if i get a bachelor and then move to thailand i would get a good job. idk. I did see you like 2 years ago in bangkok, sadly you were to far away to say hi. But thankyou a lot man. i really fell in love with Thailand and Bangkok.
I fallow u rom morocco, i don't have he money to travel but u makes me feel good watching u videos. enjoy u life as u seems very humble nd guy wit great soul
Thai Elite Visa went from 600.000 Baht to 900,000 Baht in 5 years. MB taxis have gone up 30% since the COVID finished in 2022. Vietnam seems to be the preferred option for Expats now.
@@jameshightower8875 Its an upfront cost. I had it for 5 years, cost me 600,000 Baht to buy. When I enquired about renewal this year for another 5 years with Thailand Elite, they said it now costs 900,000 Baht...no thanks.
Love you videos as they are all so inspiring and I can relate to many of your experiences. I'm Australian as too and have been living here in Bangkok for many years to the point I call this place home. Anyway, keep up the great content and best of wishes with your channel and your soon to be channels.
@@keisone I'm 60. Seems you would never have survived being young in my days.... Do you belive that we had to STAND IN LINE to buy TICKETS.... LOL Greeting from Denmark 😁😁
Haha there are things I like about all that too.. I’m from the last era that had to walk up to a girl and ask for her number.. call the home phone and hope the dad didn’t answer lol
A friend of mine has lived in LOS for 22 years, been married 5 or so years, going back to a retirement visa, because he said it's easier than a marriage visa, I have no idea, but he's done both, so must be some truth in it.
Regarding to what you said about having to get different cards for public transportation. It would be so cool if A.I can make everything universal instead of having to carry this or carry that from country to country. With smartphones now if they can only compile everything and make mundane task effortless instead of going from here to there.
Or a blockchain for international payments and transactions. And in Thailand you need your physical foreign passport to bank, currency exchange, pay bills, check in to properties. Passports should be digital so they aren't damaged, lost, or "run out of pages". Immigration agents could digitally stamp & update them. And your visa agent or national embassy wouldn't need to keep your hard copy f/ three weeks. I know, I know- fraud. But bank acc'ts & bill paying are digital.
I love the videos, especially the racing and Japan "Films." Keep it up. You probably already noticed this, but your camera setting wants to focus on your hands when they come into the frame. You might want to manually set focus on your face and turn off autofocus when doing dialog shots. I see many other RUclipsers making the same error, so I thought I'd mention it. Good luck.
Nice video Adam. I'm one of the older guys but have made friends from different age groups., I could talk all day but won't. Just thank you for a good video, I did get the LTR visa. Perfect for me! BTW I grew up near Americas dairy land. But....We have nothing on Aussie Butter! Do if anyone is staying for a bit, Buy the butter!
Your content has got much better. The little mini doco on Dek Wean was excellent. Your film craft is tight too, this is from someone who has the multi media diploma and used to work in the film industry.
@@keisone it shows. You have a talent for film making. One thing though. 3 weeks to make a mini doco is FAST not slow in film making. Very different to content creation with the timeframes you should give yourself.
Cash is important to not be controlled like slave by the govt! So think carefully about losing your freedom for the sake of convenience. Go live in China if you think it's a good thing. We all need to make a stand against control by govt.
100% correct, its not about having the ' oh i have nothing to hide' mentality, this is about taking away civil liberties, the covid bullshit was just a test to see who complied, sad to see a majority did, especially with taking swabs up their noses and getting the clot shots, fuck all that shit.
Agree and said this myself. Adam you may not have nothing to hide but so did the people who only wanted to access their funds and the bank said no. It’s happening all around the world now, people are told no when the want to withdraw their money to buy something in cash. Learn and don’t keep your head in the sand.
@@keisone its beyond having anything to hide mate. losing cash is losing freedom...we need the young people to look further than the convience of a cashless society :-)
If I lived in BKK & wanted to be by the sea side at the weekends, I'd be going Bangsaen or Cha Am, Hua Hin isn't bad every now & then, Pattaya absolutely no way on gods green earth.
Heres a good question for you because I know you want to keep things positive. If I meet you someday Ill ask you this. My question is "After your old Aussie friends see your life and see how great it is, are their people you tried hard to change their lives and get them to move here because you want to better their lives"? And do they write you off and double down and tell you how great living in Us-Jail-Ya still is? This is my exact story after living here 5 years coming from America.
Haha well I finally managed to convince my mate Sam to move here and I have never seen him happier… I don’t push people back home, they can see I’m here because I believed in myself when everyone told me I was making a mistake.. so I’ll let my success do the talking 😉 Great question though, if you see me, I’ll go into more detail 😊
@@keisone Youll have to go back to Isaan again someday. Ive pretty much stayed in Buriram for 5 years now with the wife, baby and family. I do hope to meet you though someday.
I busted out laughing when Adam talked about how much he loves the sidewalks (( just kidding ) He definitely has changed over the last few yrs, you definitely can see. Outstanding All Around
I heard that the jelly fish problem is really bad and your unable to enjoy the beaches. Is there an infestation of jellyfish or are you able to go swimming without being worried of being stung ?
I heard that too, it’s not usually like that.. but it may just be someone looking for drama and views lol.. I’m in Phuket in a couple days, I’ll let you know
Good stuff but on the topic of video production, I see that your lens goes out of focus several times throughout the video. Something to look at :) Anyways keep up the good stuff
Yeah my bad, had the face tracking off so when the trees moved it would focus on the movement.. unfortunately I was just sitting down talking to the camera and not reviewing any of the clips, I missed it.. Will be fixed for the next video I put actual effort into the production lol 🤦♂️
Hi , If We get a retirement visa can we do our 3 months online? Also if you don't show you have 800,000 in the bank is there another alternative such as income? They said you also need an address but if we just go over then we will be in a hotel.
For me if I live there Asoke seems to be a convenient location. I noticed it was the center of transportation and ended up passing through the area often.
I'm in a similar situation to many, I wonder how much would a visa agency charge if possible at all to issue me a one year visa basically I'd be working online solo.
Hey Keis, quick question for you bro or anyone else on here that has recommendations, is there a good Visa Agent I can use in Thailand? Im considering the METV to get started.
I'm heading to Thailand in feb next year, to pataya with a couple of friends. Would be awesome to catch up and get some tips about the area from another good aussie bloke
I see condos for rent in Thailand Cha Am , Hua Hin, for around 200USD/month for a 6 month lease, they look quite decent, are these for real or there's a catch? Looks too good to be true, like how does this make sense why is it so cheap?
LOL actually slight exaggeration with Japan, I'm here now. You need cash FOR SURE + real credit card + (optional) phone. I've already been in at least 15 places in just 1 month that didn't accept "tap" to pay and wanted a physical card. I've been in coffee shops that were cash only or some sort of local QR code payment that I can't do, if not that then cash is mandatory.
Hey brother, great channel I have been here 14 years years and one of the best countries in the world, covid was the best time no traffic, no farangs and cheap hotels...... If you around let grab a coffee in BKK.
I been watching you from day 1. I wish I could move to Thailand. Im 43 years old. Good wife and a 11 year old and a 2 month old. We live In Madrid and we are most likely going to end up moving to houston cause my wife can get a good job there as a nurse. I have no Idea what we would be doing for money in thailand. My wife only speaks spanish, shes currently learning english.
Unfortunately I won’t show her, sadly it’s a weird world out there, actually almost none of my female friends that came in videos wanna do it again because all the creeps online that track them down on social media etc
Ah, I spend about 2 months a year in Bangkok, and when I go home to the US, I suffer from Bangkok Ankle. This afflication is caused by stumbling on the sidewalks at least once a week.The price you pay for living in the Big Mango.
@@keisone mmhm better to have peace of mind when it comes to things like this. I like that my carrier have a internet plan even if you are in Thailand. 100 gb I think each month. but if you do not have that or work where you come from VPN is not a bad idea. they may see that I am in Sweden but in reality I am in Thailand and enjoying life XD
@@tbjdiamonddog that is a very good idea. and to add to it be careful what you say online close to airports everything is monitored there. a joke can turn in to quite the night mare.
How In the world are you staying there for 3 years. You're not 50. What visa are you using? I am 50 but I don't have the 1800 a month for the retirement visa. Just curious what you use. I friggin loved your video about the minimum wage in Thailand. It really show the opposite of that dumb comment you pinned from that guy. You can live there on far less and be far happier than the U.S.
In Pattaya , Phuket, Bangkok and Chiang Mai, and I am sure elsewhere, there are many visa agents who will get you an initial retirement visa for 25,000 baht, and each following year for 12,500 baht. Most of these visa agents will show themselves as travel agents. I live in Pattaya, and if you plan on retiring in Pattaya, send a reply, and I will direct you to the agency dozens of friends and I use.
Sending love as always from newie . you, Gary, Paddy, Trev and @kingiinit inspired me during the never ending NSW lockdowns to break free and do what makes me happy.

I'm heading to Thailand in feb next year, to pataya with a couple of friends. Would be awesome to catch up and get some tips about the area from another good aussie bloke
awesome man, I’m always down there so if you see me out and about, say hey!
Yes. ❤
😊😊
I see condos for rent in Thailand Cha Am , Hua Hin, for around 200USD/month for a 6 month lease, they look quite decent, are these for real or there's a catch? Looks too good to be true, like how does this make sense why is it so cheap?
Hey Adam, any recommendations on visa agencies to obtain the business visa? I'm in Bkk. Thanks and keep up the great work!
I’m not too sure to be honest, mine was set up for me.. I’m yet to meet a visa agent that ticks all the boxes for me..
Thai visa can sort out the 'business' visa 😉
Hi @mcb00m, could you please share more details or a contact? Thank you!
Hi@@mcb00m, I'm interested! Could you please share more details or a contact? LINE or email address works! Thank you so much.
LOL actually slight exaggeration with Japan, I'm here now. You need cash FOR SURE + real credit card + (optional) phone. I've already been in at least 15 places in just 1 month that didn't accept "tap" to pay and wanted a physical card. I've been in coffee shops that were cash only or some sort of local QR code payment that I can't do, if not that then cash is mandatory.
Where was that room right on the beach?
what happened to Dan I used to love his videos but don't see him anymore
Hey brother, great channel I have been here 14 years years and one of the best countries in the world, covid was the best time no traffic, no farangs and cheap hotels...... If you around let grab a coffee in BKK.
Hey there, at 4:50 what is the name of this hotel?
I would love good bakeries with meat pies, sausage rolls, custard tarts and all the good stuff I miss that a lot loving is Asia for over 10yrs now.
Haha yeah, I had a meat pie in Pattaya a while back, it was awful 🤣🤣
I been watching you from day 1. I wish I could move to Thailand. Im 43 years old. Good wife and a 11 year old and a 2 month old. We live In Madrid and we are most likely going to end up moving to houston cause my wife can get a good job there as a nurse. I have no Idea what we would be doing for money in thailand. My wife only speaks spanish, shes currently learning english.
I always told my wife that she would be a good youtuber cause she is pretty, friendly and fun to be around with, she is 30.
Thailand is best 👍
Agreed!!
Time for Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam
I allways watch your videos dose dan the man still live in Bangkok never see him on youtube
Yeah he lives here, just gone a different direction on RUclips, did u see my Japan videos? He is in them
You don’t party anymore, you become Korean drama fan with me 😂❤
Congratulations on getting married😂.
K dramas are the best thing on netflix
More Q&A vlogs Adam! Would be good to see more of your gf in the vids too! Keep it up!
Unfortunately I won’t show her, sadly it’s a weird world out there, actually almost none of my female friends that came in videos wanna do it again because all the creeps online that track them down on social media etc
@@keisone Indeed better to keep her for yourself! Cheers mate!
Ah, I spend about 2 months a year in Bangkok, and when I go home to the US, I suffer from Bangkok Ankle. This afflication is caused by stumbling on the sidewalks at least once a week.The price you pay for living in the Big Mango.
So, what exactly does your business do in Thailand?
Things I mentioned in the video, RUclips, I sell online courses, affiliate marketing etc
Really wanted to meet up with u and have a day of filming and learning from u but no worries i know u were too busy bro
Did u contact me? I didn’t know u were here..
@@keisone I think I left a couple of comments on previous videos about being here this month
Let me know properly next time man! Shoot me an email 😊
@@keisone sweet hopefully some day I'll be back mite be a while tho unfortunately. I'm in Pattaya till the 29th this month
What happened to DAN? His Just Dan page isn't up anymore. That dude really surprised me with the quality of his videos.
You see my Japan videos?
@@keisone I never got those advertised to me, so weird. I watched the 2 short one and will watch the longer form video later. looks great!!
Set up for you, who are you bro?
Just use cash 🤷🏼♂️ every contactless transaction is monitored/watched/recorded and taxed.
So what? All they gonna see is I go to 711 like 3 times a day 🤣
@@keisone 😂😂😂
Is Dan still with Grumpy his gf ?
What’s Dans channel?
Who did you use for a visa agent?
I had my visa organised for me..
I am yet to deal with a visa agent I’d recommend haha
@keisone 7:16 Doesn't the 🐇RABBIT card let you tap in and out of both the BTS and MRT
Very nice
Thanks brother!
Reddit is great!!
Yeah I’m sure it is.. I went on the Bangkok expats subreddit one time and it was a wild ride though haha
What happened to Dan?...Dan the man, Dan Britten, Dan the Camera man...Iost count! lol...miss his content.
Check my Japan vids 😉
Please read about cashless society. It will lead to digital pri son, cash is important.
what's a vizzer?
VPN is good but what is better never to use WIFI at all.
Yeah, so I learned haha
@@keisone mmhm better to have peace of mind when it comes to things like this. I like that my carrier have a internet plan even if you are in Thailand. 100 gb I think each month. but if you do not have that or work where you come from VPN is not a bad idea. they may see that I am in Sweden but in reality I am in Thailand and enjoying life XD
Interesting, im going to stop jumping on Wi-Fi when out, cheers
@@tbjdiamonddog that is a very good idea. and to add to it be careful what you say online close to airports everything is monitored there. a joke can turn in to quite the night mare.
Nice one , more like this in future please 😊. So damn hot 🥵 isn’t it ? bloody hell in Bangkok 😅
Ah thank you, glad you enjoyed 😊
How In the world are you staying there for 3 years. You're not 50. What visa are you using? I am 50 but I don't have the 1800 a month for the retirement visa. Just curious what you use. I friggin loved your video about the minimum wage in Thailand. It really show the opposite of that dumb comment you pinned from that guy. You can live there on far less and be far happier than the U.S.
Visa info in the vid 😉
In Pattaya , Phuket, Bangkok and Chiang Mai, and I am sure elsewhere, there are many visa agents who will get you an initial retirement visa for 25,000 baht, and each following year for 12,500 baht. Most of these visa agents will show themselves as travel agents. I live in Pattaya, and if you plan on retiring in Pattaya, send a reply, and I will direct you to the agency dozens of friends and I use.
make bew video about the tax
Better to get ur info from a professional than a RUclipsr.. I use a Thai accountant because it’s all quite confusing with tax treaties
