Haha, we the ASEAN citizens don't need the extension of visa. Especially for Malaysians and Singaporeans.
Which reasonable area inside Chiangmai is best to stay for easy access everywhere ?
We are also living in Chiang Mai since 1 month. Appartement with gym and pool and all the house-stuff we needed. Total 7500 bath. Food spending on average 200 bath in total ( 2 people ) per day. Its really a good solution for relax life-style for a good price
Yes! They do have a lot of high end stuff and low end but sometimes you can find that happy medium and its perfect!
I'm currently looking for an apartment with a gym in Chiang Mai. How did you find such a deal?
Hi Miquel, have a look at perfecthomes.co.th We used this. Keep in mind that living in Nimman Area will cost you at least 400 USD. If you are willing to live outside of Nimman, because you have a scooter. Then you will find a great deal for 7000 or 8000 bath. We are living in Punna Oasis. You can google it if you want. And i know they have still many appartments left to rent.
Where? I'm here now and hunting for an apartment. :)
My wife and I were there this past August. We loved it there. We were in Bangkok, Chiang Mai (her favorite place), Krabi, and Kho Phi Phi. I’m working on getting my finances straight so we can go there for an extended period of time and just travel and see Thailand to the fullest.
Aww that would be so cool! It really is an amazing place to stay!
Great video. Informative breakdown of the costs.
We are building a house in Udon Thani and will be relocating there from London, UK soon.
I am a currency trader managing my own small fund and so will be able to continue working from Thailand.
Cannot wait 🙂
Aww you will love it there! Plus you can get good internet there!
I'm sure that we will love it.
Keep the videos coming. Really do enjoy your content 👍
Isaan is dire.
@@DivertLiving I would go just to check out the hot spring. How hot was the water?
I'm from Canada and planning to start spending 6 months of the year out there and I plan on getting by on $800 CAN per month or less. I want the freedom, the adventure and the weather lol. Great vids, keep it up :)
Thank you so much Chris!
Next month I come to Thailand 1 week Bangkok 2 weeks Chiangmai, watched all your videos and love them 👍 you 2 are the best help and the footage is great, wish could meet you to buy you dinner or drinks. Keep up the good work
Aww thank you so much Gregory! We wont be there then but we would still love to meet you sometime! Have a very great trip!
Nice video. I just got home from my bike trip and am getting caught up on all the videos I missed. I rode 1,700 miles from TN to northern Utah (plus how ever many miles I rode with my son while there). From there to northern Wisconsin to visit another son, 1,400+ miles (however many more miles I rode while up there to see the beautiful fall colors). Finally, back to TN to see my son that still lives in TN, and home. Close to 5,000 miles on a bike loaded down with too much gear and two people. We rode through very strong wind, including 45+mph wind gusts in Wyoming, cold, rain, traffic, etc. My throttle hand has a pinched nerve now and my fingers are numb and tingly painful. I am watching all missed videos, but will probably only thumbs up since I have so many to catch up on, but this video was fantastic, not to mention makes me hungry. Well done!
Thank you so much! We are happy you are safe and back home!
Thanks for pointers in the video gonna place some of the sites on my list for next time 👍😎
We hope it helps!
Nuts about the cost guys, could really see how you could stay there for a while on a really affordable budget! Great video, always enjoying getting behind the scenes look!
Thanks! Yea thats why we travel Asia! now we just have to ship that airstream over seas! haha
me and my girlfriend have been to Bangkok and Krabi, we were never really interested in visiting chiang mai. BUT after watching this video I guess the next time we're going to thailand we will come to chiang mai! 😀
Aww its completely different then the rest of Thailand! Its something we all must see!
There are tons of places in Chiangmai to visit e.g. Doi Angkhang, Chiangdao, Huay Nam Dang, Doi In Thanon, Mae Jam. Try home stay with locals on the mountains overnight, wake up in the morning for fresh air and sea of fogs.
This sounds amazing! We will have to try that!
Thanks for sharing your experiences in Chiang Mai. Interesting video 🙏
Thank you for watching
I like your video! I come from Thailand, and I think Chiang Mai is really good for person who like peace and quite.But for person who wants loud and crowd should go to Bangkok
Ahh i can see what you mean you cant really find quiet in BKK haha
great quality! probably my fav Chiang Mai video on RUclips :)
Aww REALLY!? Thats so cool to hear! Thank you so much!
Great video! Greetings from Uruguay!!
Thank you so. much!
Thanks for the video! You mentioned many things that other videos of Chiang Mai don't.
Question: If we were to only visit one Chiang Mai night market, which would you suggest is the best overall (food, things to buy)?
Great video and a wonderful place to visit or live. Thanks.
Thank you Greg ! We love the weather there and the chill environment as well !:D
Could this guy be any more excited during his voice overs?
I could try if you want hahaha
@@DivertLiving haha
i found you guys through the bali videos and now i’m binge watching you!! love you guys! keep them coming :)
So awesome! thank you so much for watching!
I found your channel accidentally and I said to myself that I already seen you. And indeed I met you in Bangkok. World is small ^^ . I like your work on this channel. (A traveller from Switzerland) :)
Awesome views and info. We gotta try that wine one day !! 😊😊
Thanks guys ! You both will love it there and of course the wine!:D
I have been binge watching all your thailand videos 😍😍 planning on going there next summer (gotta save up some money first hahah)
Aww thank you so much! I think you will love it there!
Sold! I was on the fence where I should visit this autumn and this it! Great video of scenic sites, tips and the glorious Thai food! Thanks for putting up this video! Great work!!
Aww you really should visit there!
Great video footage with the drone! My wife and I love Chiang Mai, we’ll be visiting next year after a few days in KL. I really enjoy your videos, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Terry!
I love kanom jean gaeng kiow waan too. I never used to like kao soi, but it's a northern specialty and I grew to love it when I was there. I miss Thailand so much. Hoping I can visit in October. My family lives in Chonburi!
Ahh its my absolute favorite!
สุดยอดเลยครับ ตอนนี้ผมกำลังฝึกภาษาอยู่ ผมตามดูคลิปของพี่ัทั้งสองคนตลอดครับ สักวันต้องคล่องแบบพี่ให้ได้ :)
สู้ๆนะคะ ดีใจที่มีคนไทยด้วยกันดูวิดีโอด้วย ขอบคุณมากจ้า 🤩
ผมฝึกด้วยคน😄😄
😍😍😍😍😍
ดีใจจังเลย ที่มีคนไทยด้วยกันติดตาม 👏👍
คนอยู่เชียงใหม่ก็เข้ามาดูเหมือนกัน
WOW!!! Awesome, amazing video. I'm shocked at the prices there. Four years ago, I was paying $400.00 a month for an apartment that would easily fit inside that one.
Yea honestly you can still pay that but we spent a lot of time searching for a good deal!
nice uploaded welcome to Chiang mai bro
Thank you so much! We love it there!
This is awesome! I was just there and didn't get any drone shots! I love the story telling and information you packed into this vid. Nice!
Thank you so much Taylor! How did you like it there?
I think it has been one my favorite place to visit so far.. it was my introduction to Asia so I'll always remember it with some nostalgia lol such friendly people and gorgeous temples
Great video with lots of practical and accurate info. Although, I had to check my playback settings... thought I was on 0.5x speed.
Ahh did it seem fast? haha
Great informative video! I am starting to look for my next destination , Thailand is on the list, so this vlog and others are helpful! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy the trip!
Amazing tips guys got to love how affordable Chiang Mai is for a budget traveler
It really is amazing!
Great informative video learned a lot. Keep up the good work
Thank you so so much!
Great video on Chiang Mai. I will be visiting Thailand.
Awesome! Hope you have a great trip!
Very good video Guys , I have been to most of those places very enjoyable, if you get a chance Huay Tung Tao very relaxing ,enjoyable and cheap food ,large dam sitting in a gazebo type thing ,good work Jimmy ,Tah cheers
Thank you so much Keith!

Thank you so much! Tah is really getting so good :)
Hai, nice vlog i heven been to Chia gmai i like to.i gees you guys eating nasi goreng USA yeaah
Ahhhh NAsi Goreng is AMAZINGGGG
Hi guys! For the past few weeks I try to watch all the vids about Thailand since I’m going on a tour myself for the first time! So thank for all the tips, I do was wondering if you have a clip about Bangkok with this theme? Thanks in advance
Aww no we dont have one like this on BKK sorry:( Hope you have a great trip!
You guys ever think about going to Colombia ? We are looking at Medellin and then going to a city in the coffee triangle called Manizales. Get some cool weather.....
Ahh we have thought of it! Really want to visit there!
Mon Jam spectacular landscapes, wow :)
Indeed!:)
I prefer to stay in Bangkok or Pattaya, I kinda like the hustle and bustle in those places, Chiang mai doesn't look like a place to party.
Curious if you have any suggestions on best way to book my flights. My sister and I are traveling to Bali in May and we decided to add an extra week to travel over to Chiang Mai Thailand. Would you suggest buying a multi-city flight from the states? Or buying a one way tickets from states to bali and from thailand to the states, which would mean buying our Thailand ticket while in Bali and a return from Thailand back to the states?
I want to see you guys to explore in Chaing rai and its cheaper than Chaing mai which is so chill like Chaing mai.
We want to see it one day!
Love your videos! I've been living at Trio as well for about 7 months. I love it! What was the name of the Hotpot restaurant that was mentioned?
Ahh its right down the road from you. its right next to royal shilton residence
I think I know exactly what you're talking about. Thanks!!
If we talk about "budget travel" like you said, 300$+ rent is not really on the budget side + internet + sheets ecc
Thats the price to rent a nice appartment in italy for example, without a pool ofcourse ;) but still..
That is budget for a place with a kitchen. Trust me you could go cheaper... very easy but you wont have a kitchen and to get a kitchen you normally pay a lot more. In total we did budget hard for the month we were there its ok if you dont think so but you cant compare it to italy because we never know the cost difference especially if you are not a local
Two words for Thailand, nice and beautiful. 😊😊😊
Yea i think so to! We love it there
I'm in chiangmai the old town by Maya mall 😁
Do you like it there?
Yeah I love it!! Everything is a block away from me and food, clothes, entertainment is so cheap. Also Thai people are so kind hearted.Ileave for Hanoi on Saturday 😢😢
@@staffaun5162 does your internet support gaming?
Hello everyone!
I'm from Vietnam
Hello!!!! Thank you so much for watching!
Are these prices same in high season?
Hi Alan we were there in High season 😄
Nice Clip :-)
Thank you so much! Hope its helpful!
Excellent
Thank you so much!:D
what about extending visa for 6 months?! excellent video
Im not sure how to do that! Never done it
Sleep issues???
Then time into this soothing , monotone narration #zzzz
thank you for the feedback:)
I noticed you had the Phantom, you should consider the Mavic Air down the road, its so small and does a great job
Who cares what you think bruh. Stick to your sleazy channels!
Ahh thanks David! Honestly its cool to see you here commenting on our videos! it means a lot! We actually have the Mavic Pro now! So happy to have made our packs smaller for this year of travel! Back on the road this week!
Divert Living “it means a lot” ??? Hmm.. always have to be cordial to other “influencers” with a following. You never know how it could help out the brand 🙄. That is the only way I could see you commenting, it means a lot. Or it really means a lot and you look up to him. I really hope you are being cordial.
just a point
you seem to fly you drone in but up areas, just be mindful of the local laws
operating a drone in Thailand requires a permit,Thai drone insurance and sitting a practical exam in Bangkok
max fine $3000.00 5 years jail if caught
@@5591408 lol ok 😂
Great condo ! We could live there easily.
Thats what we think! We loved it there!
Well you have cherry picked the good parts of cm but i certainly remember the not so good. i made two trips in the last two years of three months each. At the end of the six months some things really started to annoy.
in no particular order
CM has a traffic problem, recent booming development has meant many people have ditched the scooters and upgraded to cars usually large suv pickup types and the roads cannot handle it. by the maya mall and the superhighway will be gridlocked most of the day and the same around the moat. thai traffic lights seem to hold you for a very long time allowing a half mile jam to build up all releasing toxic fumes. the songthaews are particularly bad for this with a cloud of black smoke following them around.
prices are getting very high for western style living if you want to eat a bowl of rice sitting on a small plastic chair with flies buzzing you in 36 c heat next to a busy road them you can eat cheaply. if not many prices are higher than in the usa.
condos for monthly rental are getting expensive by thai standards and are all small. which is strange because many of the buildings are half or more empty. bubble will burst at some point
burning season is good if you like living in what feels like a post apocalyptic wasteland. many days the mountain will be blocked out by the smog. cm has one of the highest rates of lung cancer in the world for the reasons above.
rainy season most of our summer but really bad sept october.
some thais are starting to get pissed off with the large number of ferangs and actively dislike the horads of chinese. DON'T STAY IN A HOTEL POPULAR WITH THEM.
The best time to go is the end of the wet season before coach loads of chinese turn up. so late oct early nov.
the lack of pavements will start to piss you off, having to walk on busy roads and avoid traffic and other signage placed right in the middle of the walk way if you can call a thin strip of broken brick or concrete a walkway. if you are over 6ft beware of walking into electrical cables
the famous night markets once you have seen one you've seen them all. mostly stalls selling tat or food stalls thats sell meat of undetermined origin served in a plastic bag with a pool of oil at the bottom.
CHIANG MAI is done, cheap sure! The air pollution, grid locked roads, over 90 degrees everyday, locals no longer like us unless you dpend big money! Lived there for 10yrs& finally saw the light! Now live in MEXICO & just as cheap but people are friendly, weather ideal, food awesome, no pollution&do your homework & prove me wrong!
You are right about Chiangmai bad traffic but you can avoid by staying a distant from downtown and using motorbike is very easy during heavy traffic and you can get cheap apartment as well.
Condo is expensive for local Thai and they get another choice on cheap apartment that can find everywhere not too far from downtown. Mostly condo is for foreigner and people from Bangkok who do business in Chiangmai.
The pollution from burning season this year become a little bit because of early raining and from Asia Pacific Lung Cancer Conference or APLCC (2016), China has 800,000 cases, India 70,000 cases and Thailand 19,500 cases but mostly or 90% are from tobacco smoking.
Food from walking street is a tourist favourite food and closely supervised by Chiangmai Municipal Officer and you can get cheaper food from local fresh market. If you can not bear with hot weather there are many shopping malls to stay in air conditioning and not too expensive food just like Maya Mall at the basement or B1, food starting from 40-50 bahts(1.21-1.51 USD).
Thai are one of the friendliest people from many travelling sources but there are also a small amount just like some Songthaew who scam and wrangled with Grab.
The cables that you saw at low level are telephone and internet cables but electric cables are higher level for safety purpose at 8 metres height for low voltage and 12 metres height for high voltage.
😍😍 I really like Chiang Mai than bkk.
Chiangmai is such a chill city and way more calm we love it there too
True! still live here and I love it. 😊
Great vid. What is the name and/or location of the haircut place?
What’s the name of the All-You-Can-Eat restaurant?
Ahhh its the all you can eat korean bbq
Lol is that what it’s really called??
Hey! I plan on coming to Thailand near the end of the month and wanted to bring a drone, is it fine flying a drone there, do they get confiscated in the airport?
They didnt mine
Legally, a drone needs to be registered and insured for use in Thailand. Google "Drone laws in Thailand." Anyone failing to register drones would be subject to a 100,000 baht fine or up to five years in prison.
could you do a video recommendation on an internet setup for gaming or heavy online work in thailand?
Ahh we just used the local service. Don't know if that will work
@@DivertLiving thanks!
What kind of drone do you have?
During this video we had the Phantom 3 Standard but its a very large bulky drone
@@DivertLiving thanks want to get a drone before i go there. Trying to get an idea what's the best drone to get when traveling. I'm from Ubon Ratchathani and never been to Chiang Mai yet but that's next on my list. Keep up the great work 👍
How do you tip in Thailand ?
Waiters/waitresses, haircut, taxi, etc ?
What ever extra change you have
Tip is not Thai tradition. It doesn't matter if you tip them or not.
Love your videos!
Regards from Yemen :)
Thank you Khaled!:D
We are glad you love them
Who else listens to Jimmy to cure insomnia?
hahaha Well thank you! I hope it works!!
500 dollar a month? I spend that in four days...
Well you are a different type of traveller then
Yeahhhhhh. I personally couldn't live/travel for $500 a month. Absolutely no way. Which is why numbers need to be taken with a grain of salt. YMMV
Nice and beautiful 😊💕
Aww thank you so much!
Haven't heard you speak about the huge Sunday market
Nice
Iam cheap Charlie and i approve this video...
Hey you mean cheap Charlie RUclips channel ?!!!!!! 😱😱😱
5:15 ( Aw ! One of my fave places !! ) ~Amanda ,
It really is such a great place!
I am planning to leave Canada to live there, because I am barely scraping by on a 40k salary here, and it sucks being at the bottom of food chain here, is it a good idea to move to Chiang Mai, is it safe and worth it?
Its safe for sure and worth it i think. Its one of the best places in Thailand
Divert Living thanks so much bro, what job would you recommend me to get in Chiang Mai?
Downsides are gridlock and pollution for longterm stay.
Pollution is not bad in Chaingmai unless its burning season and thats not pollution
Hello guys , you still in chiang mai, i’m traveling there in a few days, maybe you can go for a coffee. Thank you
Aww we would love to but we are not there right now so sorry!
Hooo ok then , i will be in chiang mai for more 3 weeks and i’m loving hear, thank you for all your videos , maybe other time take care, and keep doing the great videos
my wife and I would like to rent an apartment in both Chiang Mai . Can we arrange this here in the Philippines so we can just to to Chiang Mai and move into an apartment right away/
So was in town and grand canyon is 550Bht how did you pay under $7?
Maybe the price went up from the time we went there Not to sure
Hey Guys! Love your Vlog! One question regarding The Trio Condo. This price is if you are renting for 1 month or it would be more expensive? Me and my wife are coming to Chiang Mai and we are looking for something close to Old town for 5 weeks (Nov 11 - Dec 15) with swimming pool up till 15000 baht total. You think it is possible? We really like this Trio Condo and we are consider it strongly :) Best regards for both of you! And maybe we will see each other some place there! Best regards from Poland!
Hey Jacek! It is for one month but im sure you can figure something out with the landlords for an extra week! Just take a motorbike over there and ask
most condos rent for one year or six months three months. your choice will be much smaller with one month many will even tell you them don't do one month hoping you will sign up for longer or will say they have no rooms available because one month for them isn't worth the hassle. you will also need to factor in a large deposit or at least one months rental which they will want in cash only. then getting internet sorted for one month is a no go so you need to find a condo with it already up and running. a 15000 baht condo will be the price for one year per month the price for only one month will be much more 25000 with a 25000 deposit it may be cheaper to airbnb at least then you are protected if something goes wrong
Thank you for reply :) 3 more weeks and we are going there for sure :)
@Divert Living Last question :) I know it is a a beginning of high season. Do you think that it is possible to just walk in and try to arrange something or we should try to arrange it as soon as possible? We are arriving to October 31 and we stay there 2 days and then we are going to Pai for small vacation and then we are coming back to CM November 10 or 11. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us :)
Jacek Wi
In general, everyone says get a hotel for a night or two and then walk around and look for an apartment or a monthly rental but you are right, I think, to be concerned. Not only is it the great weather and smoke-free time of year there but it is getting into the holiday season and the to internationally-known Light and Lantern festivals will start around November 22nd which brings in thousands of people.
I've been looking online already for 6 weeks and haven't found the amenities I want for under 500 US dollars a month because all the cheaper deals are taken.
I've been in Chiang Mai before but not since 2003 and there are a ton of young digital Nomads living there by the month now. Let me know if you find a great deal somewhere- I want a balcony and a little kitchenette included with fast Wi-Fi.
Great videos guys! i cant really get the maths done though, your`e paying 300 a month for the apartment and 76 for the bike and 18 for the internet package, leaves you with like 100 dollars for everything else for a month?
$300 USD is the full price and we divide by 2, everything else as well
Ah okey, anyways thanks for youre videos! Great work and so much useful tips. Been binge watching it now, probably should cancel my Netflix 😊 safe travels for you
Hey mate, is that apartment 10,000 baht on a 1 month basis? Or was that on a 3, 6 or 12 month contract? Thanks!
We only did one month here! We needed a down payment though
What is the name of the Hotpot restaurant?
It's name " Moo Jomb Jet Yod ".
Another cheap restaurant about 300 metres nearby is " Buffet Shabu Oppa " 99 bahts per person.
So so good!
Thank you so much for the information and helping people!
My pleasure.
Did you try that crocodile meat? 🤔 that looked oddly delicious
Ahhh no we didnt! I have tried it though!
hey bro, can u tell me the name or position of the 80 bath barber? thanks
Tambon Chang Phueak, Amphoe Mueang Chiang MaiChang Wat Chiang Mai 50300Thailand
Hope this helps!
Where is that all you can eat place ?
It is just right next to Royal Shilton Residence apartment you can put the apartment name and on map!:)
Very informative; no blah, blah, blah. ;)
Ahh thats what we are shooting for!
Made me hungry. I found nothing like this in Bangkok.
Really!? To us Bangkok seems to have more food diversity
Been there 👍🏽
Awesome !:D
Did you stop in phitsanulok ? I have friends there 😊
We have never been to Phitsanulok yet do you have Thai friend there ? Some of people we know teach English there:)
YES ......I’m trying o get ahold of them ...i plan on flying to the Philippines in march and flying to Thailand from there ..and i hope Hong Kong after that...maybe Singapore as well ...
Wow it's Edward Norton.
hahahhaha
Thank you for your video. You guys are awesome. I have a question. When you extend your visa, is it 60 days including the original 30 or is it 60 plus the 30? 90 days in total?
Ahh its 30 plus 30 for extention
.........How much do I have to spend in Chiang Mai....???!!!
Depends how you live and what you want to do
_+_ I love Chiang Mai
So do we! Such an amazing place!

It is a totally stupid idea to buy bottled water. Hotel and residence rooms come with an electric tea pot, use it to boil tap water. Or you can buy a pot at Baan & Beyond or similar store. I can assure that Chiang Mai water tastes great. I lived in Shenzhen China for 6 years and was doing same, but Shenzhen water has a very bad taste. So, don't waste your money buying bottled water.
Man the water is so so so cheap here its better to buy purified water from a machine over boiling your time away hahaha Time is money bud
@@DivertLiving Who says water is purified? Besides, you do environment a favor by not creating trash. Trust me, you're not going to die from Chiang Mai water, I haven't yet. Save environment and same money.
One more thing: the teapot will shut off when the water finished boiling, you can only use it when it cools off, that will take a few hours. I always keep cold water in the fridge, refill old plastic water bottles. But you can probably save more than 50 baht a day on bottled water, that's 1500 baht a month. That should buy a few nice dinners.
@@zakbrowne8470 That is electric purified water machine and it cost you 6 baht for whole bucket that i can live for a week and refill it again with another 6 baht. Its cheap and you don't have to pay more electricity bill when you use small boiler. Also i don't how they creating trash when they using refill water bucket in 2.06?
Is Chiang Mai is cheaper than Bangkok? How is the air quality in Chiang Mai?
