    What's funny is that I'm Thai and here I am, watching your video for a guidance into exploring Bangkok (I have never been to half of these places in this video)🤣Your video is amazingly shot and edited, but what I like the most about it is that you've provided some insights of places like a brief history, general terms, and transportation methods which can be useful for people to understand and immerse themselves with the culture while traveling. Also, unlike many other creators who seem to forget to do research (hence they tend to end up in expensive malls and generic tourist spots) you really did explore and appreciate local sceneries and community which are essentially the backbone of Thai community and culture. This is definitely a must-watch for those who plan to visit Bangkok, and even better, for Bangkok residents who want to explore the city like a tourist. Again, great job Chris!

    Almost 20 days in and I feel I learned a ton. Still tons more to learn but Kruu Fah makes it so much fun I feel bad missing a lesson because life got in the way.
    Let me finish with a big thanks to Kruu Fah and her team for all the effort she put into this challenge - and a challenge it is!
    Good luck with your new channel.

    • @Zyuki-lz2kx
      @Zyuki-lz2kx 10 месяцев назад +8

      1. In my opinion Thailand is REAL MELTING POT I did not surprise why everybody go to Thailand, they got Vietnam culture in northeast of Thailand even in Bangkok if you do enough research you will find restaurants from many countries around the world in Bangkok. It is why I think this place is unlike anywhere else in the world. It may be true that New York has a diverse population of people all over the world. In Switzerland, it is diverse. But from my observation The country is more open to cultures from around the world. And people all over the world are accepting Thai culture as well. You won't see this as evident anywhere else in the world as in Thailand.
      2. Thailand is so f***ing chill. It is a country where work is not stressful. But at the same time, it is still very professional. You don't have to believe me. You should go and have your own experience.
      3. Thailand is famous for its medical care, and is a center for quality medical care and reasonable price, you don't have to be afraid to pay a high price to survive, right? A country that can be compared to Thailand in the same status right now is probably Turkey. that is trying to create a medical center and similar tourism.
      4. Thailand is a land of opportunities that many people overlook. This is the country with the world's top tourist numbers. It is definitely an area of ​​opportunity. We are not talking about online trading. But it really means offline. And when there are many offline Why is online trading ineffective?
      5. Thailand is the country of choice as a retirement destination for people around the world. Many people are moving to long-term residences towards the end of their lives.
      6. Thailand is not a religious state. You can practice any religion in Thailand. There is no discrimination regarding religion or belief. But traditional Thais will have harsher opinions about Buddhism in Thailand than you might think if social issues arise.
      7. Thailand is still far from being an international democracy. But even then, people around the world are still watching. and always helping Thai people And hope that the country will have a regime that really has power coming from the people.
      8. Thailand has coffee with quality at the specialty coffee level with a score of 85% or higher, many growing areas concentrated in Chiang Mai. There is actually a tour company that I know. They have many interesting tour packages like Gem tour/Business negotiation tour (or even help finding and matching business)/Exotic tree market tour/Real estate tour or see a knock down house/Ghost tour.
      9. Thailand loves Japanese culture very much. To the point that sometimes Japanese people don't even want to return to Japan. Because working with Thai people doesn't feel stressful. You probably already know what the working culture of Japanese people in Japan is like. Many Japanese people who have worked in Thailand request to transfer themselves to branches in Thailand permanently. And another reason is that there are so many good Japanese restaurants in Thailand that even Japanese people are weird about it. Until Japanese people say that they can go out and eat Japanese food at an affordable price in a different restaurant. It is a high quality shop that can be duplicated within 1 month and the owner of the shop is not even Japanese, but Thai. Let me inform a little more about this. It's not just Japanese people who think like this. South Koreans, Chinese, and Americans feel the same.
      10. Thailand has good infrastructure. It may not be good in every area, but I consider 90% of the country to be good. But in some areas the water system may not be good. But do you believe it or not? In some areas of Thailand you can now drink tap water from the tap. But in Bangkok you still can't drink it. I hope the country is starting to test something that is good news. As for clean energy Believe me, Thailand will definitely do very well in the near future. Sometimes I think Thailand is doing better than Europe.
      11. Regarding garbage disposal Thailand still has a lot to learn (I'm not here just to admire). It is considered a failure in waste management. But not without effort to manage, they care but still adhere to many laws. and there is systematic participation of both the state and the private sector. and instilling responsibility in this matter is still too little. Even though it is a country with a lot of foreigners. There are a lot of tourists. But if they don't rush to solve the problem, it will continue to be a problem in the long run.

      The USA has the highest crime rate of the world with a few exceptions in South America and Africa. If you steel a piece of fruit on a market in the US, you probably don't even get arrested. Try this in Bangkok and the police will come and you probably end up in the newspaper. In NY I can't even smoke in front of my hotel at night. I need to stay close to security. In Bangkok you can forget your bag with 1000$, iphone, credit cards in a poor neighbourhood and just get it back with all the contents in it.

    What a great video to end/start the New Year. The first thing that I thought of was Kris Kringle with that long rolled out paper. Making a list, checking it twice. 😊Great info and yes will have to spread out my viewing. 👏❤Well done Chris, Adam, Hailey.

    Durian smells like a warm McDonalds dumpster but tastes like an almond custard with the consistency of avocado. I highly recommend getting past the smell and just enjoy the fruit. Protip - Since the best places to get durian are street vendors or roadside stands; keep some disposable plastic gloves in your bag and wear them while eating the fruit and your hands will not get stinky.

Within the next year or 2 I plan on finally making the move unless things go super smooth. Thank you Chris for always being awesome and giving idea's. Love the channel and knowledge you are able to give.

      1. In my opinion Thailand is REAL MELTING POT I did not surprise why everybody go to Thailand, they got Vietnam culture in northeast of Thailand even in Bangkok if you do enough research you will find restaurants from many countries around the world in Bangkok. It is why I think this place is unlike anywhere else in the world. It may be true that New York has a diverse population of people all over the world. In Switzerland, it is diverse. But from my observation The country is more open to cultures from around the world. And people all over the world are accepting Thai culture as well. You won't see this as evident anywhere else in the world as in Thailand.
      2. Thailand is so f***ing chill. It is a country where work is not stressful. But at the same time, it is still very professional. You don't have to believe me. You should go and have your own experience.
      3. Thailand is famous for its medical care, and is a center for quality medical care and reasonable price, you don't have to be afraid to pay a high price to survive, right? A country that can be compared to Thailand in the same status right now is probably Turkey. that is trying to create a medical center and similar tourism.
      4. Thailand is a land of opportunities that many people overlook. This is the country with the world's top tourist numbers. It is definitely an area of ​​opportunity. We are not talking about online trading. But it really means offline. And when there are many offline Why is online trading ineffective?
      5. Thailand is the country of choice as a retirement destination for people around the world. Many people are moving to long-term residences towards the end of their lives.
      6. Thailand is not a religious state. You can practice any religion in Thailand. There is no discrimination regarding religion or belief. But traditional Thais will have harsher opinions about Buddhism in Thailand than you might think if social issues arise.
      7. Thailand is still far from being an international democracy. But even then, people around the world are still watching. and always helping Thai people And hope that the country will have a regime that really has power coming from the people.
      8. Thailand has coffee with quality at the specialty coffee level with a score of 85% or higher, many growing areas concentrated in Chiang Mai. There is actually a tour company that I know. They have many interesting tour packages like Gem tour/Business negotiation tour (or even help finding and matching business)/Exotic tree market tour/Real estate tour or see a knock down house/Ghost tour.
      9. Thailand loves Japanese culture very much. To the point that sometimes Japanese people don't even want to return to Japan. Because working with Thai people doesn't feel stressful. You probably already know what the working culture of Japanese people in Japan is like. Many Japanese people who have worked in Thailand request to transfer themselves to branches in Thailand permanently. And another reason is that there are so many good Japanese restaurants in Thailand that even Japanese people are weird about it. Until Japanese people say that they can go out and eat Japanese food at an affordable price in a different restaurant. It is a high quality shop that can be duplicated within 1 month and the owner of the shop is not even Japanese, but Thai. Let me inform a little more about this. It's not just Japanese people who think like this. South Koreans, Chinese, and Americans feel the same.
      10. Thailand has good infrastructure. It may not be good in every area, but I consider 90% of the country to be good. But in some areas the water system may not be good. But do you believe it or not? In some areas of Thailand you can now drink tap water from the tap. But in Bangkok you still can't drink it. I hope the country is starting to test something that is good news. As for clean energy Believe me, Thailand will definitely do very well in the near future. Sometimes I think Thailand is doing better than Europe.
      11. Regarding garbage disposal Thailand still has a lot to learn (I'm not here just to admire). It is considered a failure in waste management. But not without effort to manage, they care but still adhere to many laws. and there is systematic participation of both the state and the private sector. and instilling responsibility in this matter is still too little. Even though it is a country with a lot of foreigners. There are a lot of tourists. But if they don't rush to solve the problem, it will continue to be a problem in the long run.
