- Today I answer the ultimate question, is it better to live in Bangkok or Pattaya!??
I spend a lot of time in Pattaya, however I choose to live in Bangkok. I definitely love both cities, Pattaya is sooo much fun, but I find Bangkok is much more liveable for me and my needs.

🤪Your jumps starts boring for me. Eat, drink, fu** wherever you want! Other vlogs have better informations about countries and lifestyle, important your financiers likes your "work"! I'll finish following you, sorry!
Why do u think I care? Lol Later bro.. I’ll be just fine 🤣🤣
@@keisone 😂😂😂😂
@@keisone its called jealousy 🤣😂
Troll me thinks
Who gives a fcuk
I personally prefer Pattaya because of the beach, cheaper prices, slightly less traffic, etc. However, most of my friends in Thailand prefer Bangkok for the big city atmosphere where almost everything is available 24 hours a day. While I prefer Pattaya overall, almost every trip I have taken to Thailand I have gone to both places and I recommend all travelers to try both and decide for themselves what their preferences are.
This entire video is a visual representation of Adam's inner conflict before his inevitable move to Pattaya! Stop fighting it bro! 🤣🤣
Totally agree
Its called "living in denial"....🤣
new transitions got me hyped for what’s inevitably coming, a massive glow up!
great video.
It’s definitely Pattaya for me - in fact I’ve just bought my second place there - but yes discipline is definitely required!! Great vid!
Great overview, dude. Super helpful. Thanks so much 🙏
I’ve watched this video so many times and your transitions are too dope!!
Nice video. Great insight about the two places. Your energy is tremendous. Impromptu yet very creative!
Holidaying somewhere & living somewhere are 2 different beasts for sure. Holidaying I like to be close to the hustle & bustle. Living in a place, I just need to be close enough to everything as to not need a cut lunch to get to the fun. 😊 Good vid Adam. 👍
So true about Pattaya and Thailand in general, everyone knows everyone!! Phuket, Pattaya, Bangkok, the girls especially know each other, so when it comes to dating things can get so messy 😂 great vid mate
haha yeah man, the small world can get REALLY small lol
Great vid Adam. Enjoyed your perspective.
Love the video and the start.
Bangkok, hands down! One of the most amazing cities in the world. The contrast of things, the craziness, the possibilities are just endless. It feels like a mega future city in one corner and a small village in another.
Was awesome meeting you in Pattaya a few days back mate. First time in Pattaya, and loved it. I ended up drinking every day lol
I used to be in favour of Bangkok. All for the same reasons as you (living a normal life). On each visit to Pattaya, I tone down the partying. I could live there as the years and trips have gone by. Great videos, mate. You are one of the few RUclipsrs I don't take a break from. Many I need time out from, lol.
Your content keeps you constantly engaged and in my daily viewing (except when in Thailand, which is usually every 4-5weeks). You have a great outlook on life. Keep up the good work.🤘
woah those transitions are great!
when i watch your videos i feel like am traveling and enjoying with you 😁👍
Good information city boy. 😉
I like Phuket the most. But it’s for everyone different I think 🙏🏼🍻🥳
I enjoyed this. I am looking at Pattaya to first visit and maybe move to on a five year visa. I am originally from darwin Australia so a small place and find big cities a bit much though I lived in Sydney for a while. I think Pattaya could be enough for me but I understand your comment about there not being much to do that is possible. I got that problem in Australia and figured it would probably go with me wherever I went so I am not to concerned about it. Thanks for good videos Keisone I watch fairly often
Really good to hear your insights brother. Here in Thailand myself right now. I am moving from Seattle, Washington. Have been comparing both places myself but leaning towards Bangkok for many of the reasons you mentioned. 🤛
Editing on point bro
that was a cool 180 transition when u pop from bkk to ptya, ill steal that :D
clever video loved it cheers
love the editing at the start Keis, Bangkok is such a busy place and great for someone who can handle the big cities. I don't live here but could see myself doing that in the future. I did spend 2 months here on my last visit. I also love Phuket for the same reason you love Pattaya. I have friends there and love the beach and the vibe to go with it I would live in Bangkok for the simple reason that there is more to do and not just the same thing day in and day out. Phuket is more of a party place and the cost of living is insane form food being 3 times as much at times and people know who you are. Sorry I haven't been to Pattaya yet but will do so so just to check it out. But for me its Bangkok the madness here is amazing and i love it. Great video mate stay safe
yeah mate! You should check out Pattaya, its worth visiting.. Just imagine Patong on steroids haha
@@keisone oh god that could be bad lol. if my mates girl wasn't here we would probably go down tomorrow.
When you decide to look for a place in the Pattaya area definitely make a video on it because I hope to be coming in The first part of the year to stay for a extended time
Brilliant idea!
I moved from BKK to Pattaya because of the VIBE. Relaxed, beach streetfood at the sunset beach, sea activity , and with all modern, luxurious things BKK has.
(But I couldn’t buy the condo in Jomtian, it was sold out during covid! I found the more quiet yet green mountain area in Sriracha So here I am. A bit far from the Pattaya I love but it’s ok😇.)
I live in Phrom Phong, but originally considered living in Jomtien to be by the beach. Ultimately, I decided Pattaya is great for weekend trips and a break from the city, but the lifestyle comes with a risk of it consuming you. Who knows, when my lease is up in a year I might move to Jomtien of Pratumnak or maybe somewhere different altogether.
You're definitely right about hotels getting expensive. Also hard to get hotels last minute. Can't book a hotel on the bus anymore.
So do all your bookings well in advance even if youve never been there?
I love Bangkok, it’ll always be my home base because the beaches and beautiful sunsets are never far. You get to Jomtien/Pattaya in 2 hours, Hua Hin in 4 hours by car and Phuket is an 1.5 hour flight. It doesn’t even break the bank and you have a place to decompress. This makes weekend or even day trips so easy that it’s literally the best of both worlds.
Are you learning Thai in the meantime?
Love bkk for a week or two, fantastic then the busy chases me out...I'm a phuket fan...
Hey a mate was in bkk last week thought he saw you whiz past on skateboard around Nana... 🤔
haha that would have been me!!
Weighing all the pro's and con's of the two cities i will always choose pattaya. Cheaper yes, beach year round yes, not as much pollution and from my experience people are nicer. Always cool to go to bangkok but my head would explode if i lived there (kind of think of it like vegas in that it can be overwhelming).
I do the same thing going back and forth so funny I haven’t seen you yet
Makes sense to get a place in Pattaya as well if you are there half the time haha👍👍
Nice vid boss, BKK hands down, Patts good for a short trip 🤙
Got stuck in thailand march 2020 to oct 2021 . Yeah i chose to live pattaya as its cheap . Jomtien and pratumnak . Better by far than pattaya . But not much traffic during that time . I got thai license and explored on bike a bit .nice coastal places further away rayong was nice . Im not big city person or party scene , so im happier far away from bkk or pattaya . Nice islands towards cambodia and nice coastline getting there
Havent been in thailand but think jomtien feels the best for me! Less busy but still close to much!
There would be people who say they go to patts to live a "normal" life away from hectic BKK too
BKK can be "not hectic" n cheaper if u live further away from the city center
Problem is that if you ask a Thai, they will probably say patts is not the place to live in to experience Thailand ..
Yeah Pattaya is a very different "Thailand" lol
Hi great comparison. I live in same place of bamboo beach in pattaya is my favorite area .
Id choose pattaya value for money and close to the beach. Thinking of doing my dive master in pattaya next year.
Me too! The 🏝️ 🏖️ beach vibe!
I somewhat agree with you.
Bangkok offers everything you need in a big city. Shopping, bars, endless night markets, fine dining and on and on. But because it is a big city it is harder to do certain activities and that's where Pattaya comes in.
Pattaya is a smaller city so it's easier to get outside the city and find cheaper golf courses. You can also find more extreme sport activities. They have scuba diving, sea doing, mountain biking, dune buggy and I'm sure dirt bike rentals too which I know you would be interested in ;) possible video idea? Haha
I would personally live in Bangkok like you do and visit Pattaya on weekends or holidays. I just love the madness that is bangkok lol
Thanks for the great video. Im visiting there for 18 days so far, in Feb. So would you say not to book anything more than that until i get there? I dont want overbook in case i felt like leaving.
I'm flying out to pattaya on 10th December for a 5 week party, can't wait, cold wet and miserable here in the uk
There are hidden gems in both places! Same same but different!
Exactly!
Hey kieis Ive recently moved to patts from aussie after years of travelling thailand I live in Na jomptien and I think its perfect good beaches restaurants 20 mins to crazy town if you want lol....bkk was a little to business like for me ,depends on what you want alot cheaper here also.
Stay at Cape Dara on the high floor, you will see the best view of pattaya like heaven.
Too exxy for most here 😉 jokes
Both Bangkok and Pattaya has city life and country living , so maybe you could do a video showing the difference in living in an area where it city versus living country or residential and yet its still in the city and its not far from the bus or trains to get to and get around .
They both have their particular benefits I feel as you stated Adam, but for party mode yes Pattaya but if I was going to live over there I think I would likely move out into the Issan areas :-) Cheers.
Away from the centre Patts can be very "normal". Places like Mabprachan and Silver Lakes have a lot of normal restaurants and sports activities. There is a motor racing stadium with 30,000 capacity grandstand nearby and there's even a rugby and cricket league but no Australian rules football, - yet!
Cricket league are you shitting me...
I'm fine without the Australian football... can't stand it personally lol
Whoa!! 30000 racing stadium?? WHOA!! ✨🌈✨
Think both are great to live on their own merit I’m not a fan of city’s but Bkk does have some charm but I can’t see myself living in either for more than 5 years as will seek a more peaceful lifestyle and visit for fun 😊
I recommend BANG SAEN. Nearer to Bkk than Pattaya. Family vibe. Quiet at weekdays. So local. 👼🏻🏝️
I live in pratamnak bought a condo 15 years ago here l.lived in bkk for one year before and 8 months before that in chaing mai. My pic definitely is Pattaya you must just control your self here.
i like to work in Bangkok ...like no pressure job ...then go around to all places in Thailand ...also work remotely .....that way you will not be bored and also enjoy the places and food ....its my dream.
Thats the dream Mate!!
I have spent 7+ 7 days in Thailand and those full 14 days was in pattaya.....lol just saw the highway of Bangkok on the way....😄😄
We bumped into each other in Sukhumvit, Bangkok about 6 weeks ago. Personally I prefer Bangkok, too.
7:40 If you want to secure the 2nd place in Pattaya, could you try to find 2 bedrooms and share with your friend? This way you can pay much less.
Each to their own mate, I personally Love living in Pattaya. I actually hate Bangerz, it's smelly busy and expensive and the traffic is a nightmare. Born UK but moved to Sydney in 88 so sick of the city life. Pattaya is AWESOME you just have to discipline yourself or it can swallow you up lol
haha thats exactly it, I don't know I have the discipline, especially since I dont have to work or anything..
@@keisone I manage a GOGO in LK Metro a few nights a week so I get the best of both worlds really 😏
Nice
Yoooooo
So a couple of things...im a 60 yr old old school skater...I found the skate shop n park there in Pattaya, the lil DIY park in the middle of the traffic intersection...is that the park you were referring to ?
And 2nd...have you been to the Dreks shop and park in Bangkok ?
I plan on coming in march/April 23
We've got same drinking temptations and problems, just opposite cities. I couldn't go a day without being invited to party living in Bangkok 🤣 on point comparison though👌Bangkok is untouchable for food options. In Pattaya the Fitness, outdoor activities, and motorbiking keeps you from going insane drinking every night.
I'm looking for a time share in pattaya within the next yr or so. I'd like to keep my apt in the east village nyc and time share an apt perhaps in pratumak 5 months a yr.
With all of the motorcycle 's in Thailand I have never noticed a motorcycle dealership? I would be interested in seeing on of those in a video.
I'm considering retirement in jomtiem next year. I'll be interested to see what deals you can find in pattaya. Bangkok is a bit to busy and expensive for my budget I think .
With due respect to Adam, you may check Isaiah Ashley Show channel. He just did s thorough condo tour in Pattaya. It is only 400 US including all luxury amenities. The balcony can see the sea too! So beautiful view
@@jomontanee thanks for information
@@zacghent8564 Jomtiem is about 10 to 15 minutes by baht bus from central pattaya
@@zacghent8564Reckon Jomtiem is a lot more laid back than pattaya. Not got the hustle and bustle. Beach is cleaner. As far as price of condos goes I'm not to sure . Think Adam is going to be looking for one soon so I'll look forward to his upcoming video. . I'm sure if you put in price of condos in pattaya/jomtiem something will come up
In Bangkok, I feel like I spend have my day commuting and waiting in lines. People say living in Bangkok makes them more productive.. for me it's the opposite. So much time wasted. Pattaya is the most convenient place in all of Thailand. Great logistics. Nothing is too far away, and it's not overcrowded so the lines aren't nearly as bad.
What is the name of bar U show with corona beer?
What the expensive area at terminal 21 area ?
Bangkok has a vibe ❤
Pattaya wins on all aspects I know you will be living here in the end . Bangkok is like living next to a motorway smelly noisy nothing is close to hand , all the things you hate about Bkk are out of your control and you can’t change it , but the things you don’t like about pattaya can be controlled to how you like it , ie go out less , live in Jomtien etc , fat more content in pattaya also and much easier to get around oh and the beaches . You can always pop to Bangkok on a bus and do the reverse , I guarantee mate that’s will happen in the end . Good vibes
Did you tried the swimming pool on top of Mike shopping mall? If not, go there an hour before sunset, it's perfect ;)
WHAT!? There is a pool there??????
@@keisone This was my reaction to this comment too haha
@@keisone Yeah with great view. Go to the elevator in the middle of the mall and you will see the sign saying it's on the 10th floor.
Mike Mall? There is no 10th floor is there?
@@keisone I looked on google maps and the pool is green now. Did some googling and looks like it used to be an attraction a long time ago.
At Pattaya, have you been to the Royal Cliff resort? 😊
I haven't, what's it like?
@@keisone You don’t need a reservation or anything to take a look - guard will just let you through; only a km or two from central Pattaya… go take a look… walk through all of the resort buildings and pool areas. It’s an amazing oasis! Back in the old days (dating myself), there used to be a helicopter service from Don Mueang. I was there in August and everything is still pristine and well kept.
Hard life ,but you do the best ..i thinking Bangkok first
I like your videos especially this topic because I am black American and I am preparing to move to South east Asia now I understand why you ar so happy all the time is because you are maputi lalaki and it’s a well known fact that people in that area worship the maputi lalaki please advise me what country is more racist Thai or the Philippines with all do respect?
So Adam, do you think you have enough self control to live in Pattaya?
Yes and no.. I have enough self control to not go out all the time..
But I would probably often feel like I'm missing out, if all my friends are hanging out and I'm not there.. It's also hard because I have no real schedule or responsibilities.
hahahahahahaha
@@faranginsiam so true hahaha!
I'm a Londoner but London is SO boring compared to pattaya, at least for partying.
I would like to see some major additions to Pattaya to give it even more appeal, such as casinos (I appreciate this is currently banned), an opera house, theatre, more sporting venues, high end gyms, international tennis and bigger golf tournaments
Always a party, always someone’s birthday , always somewhere to be drinking ,….Sounds like living in Patty’s is like being back in high school
🎉🎉
🥳🥳
Bangkok transportation on the streets are a lil too much better is pattayav
Your slowly being dragged down to Patts....caught the bug mate...5555
Outstanding from start to finish. Bangkok has Chinatown and Patty’s has Patong.
Patong is Phuket.
👍🏼👍🏼
@Sonny. Another 1st 🏆, well done. But where were you on yesterday's live? A live counts as 10x 😆

Haha nice 🤣
all Thailand is beautiful the only issue i find is !!! Visa !!! we need advises or solutions for that 🤪
Hit up a visa agent! They are the professionals!!
Jomtien is more things to do than main part of Pattaya
Boom boom
Bkk number one ☝️😌
Definitely not a big city like Bangkok type of guy. Major cities like Bangkok I describe as " has everything but nothing is convenient "
Hi
Yoooooo
I missed you yesterday :-) good to see that you are here to day :-D

😂😂😂
Want to go half on a Pattaya crib? 🤣
I hope you are being serious
Bangkok is just better🙂
👍🏼🍻🇦🇺
Hey mate!
shiang mai
Hi Adam! Great video! I live in Pattaya and I love it. I just did a 1 minute short video on it if you’d like to see on my channel.
See you at the meetup! 👊👍
Nice one mate! See you there 😊
When’s the meet up in Pattaya for the fireworks 🎉
@@gregdtx Hi Greg! On his video today it said meetup is Monday afternoon in Pattaya, location TBA. 👍👍
It's not pronounced Pattia
yeah many youtubers pronounce it pat - tea - ya which is wrong.. Then everyone else watching gets confused and thinks it's right Pat-Tay-Yaaaaa
Bangkok pls normal people 555
Adam? How is it ever possible to to get bored of Great Beaches Great food Awesome women repeat repeat repeat repeat do it all over and over and over again and again and again until you die🎉🎉🎉
I got robbed in Pattaya
What happened? Story for my book?
@@keisone l have lived in pattaya 15 years never been robbed and been out all over on side soi ect at all times of day and night
So no morning drinking problem solved
Can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning lol
@@keisone Your liver doesn't want you to get a place in Pattaya 🤕
Haha for real!
Pattaya is a dump but its our dump lol 555
Don't collab with cris travels. He has hundreds of trolls which will descend on your channel. He is no good
Bangkok is totally different from pattaya, phuket vs pattaya would be a better comparison..
I will be going to Phuket soon 😊
Wrong.
I prefer pattaya more Ladyboys 💅💋
I have honestly only been to Suvarnabhumi Airport Arrivals/Departures.
I still would choose Pattaya to live.
You are right Pattaya is not that big a place. I do not drive so it is perfect for me to get around just by walking.10 Baht - Baht Bus. Or Moto Taxi Bolt etc. I like to cook and Market fresh food is about 75% cheaper than here in Canada. I caught Fish off a dock in Jomtien so my food costs were $0.00 ( 12 dollars Canadian worth of spices /flour/condiments etc for my whole 1 month's trip.)
YES, the temptation is there to drink booze all day. But not me. I prefer cola or water with my meals and coffee with breakfast.
IF I lived there in Pattaya I would pretend I was a tourist every other Saturday and have a few Beers along the naughty Soi's.
I love Thailand 🇹🇭 Being an Older bloke 😅 I do like the vibes of Jomtien beach 🏝 and it’s much cleaner than Pattaya! But on Holiday who cares 😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
how old are you keis?
