- We live in the absolute middle of nowhere, and sometimes bad things happen. This week two very bad things happened…
Life in Thailand after leaving the UK.
Join me on my Thailand adventure as I attempt to create a fruit farm on five acres of land, build a house, dig a well for my own water source and install solar panels to become completely off grid!
Watch me generally fumble my way through every process, trying to keep positive and upbeat throughout 🧘♂️

The reality of living in rural Thailand mate. Or Thailand in general.
There are beautiful moments always, but just occasionally……..you get a moment that brings you back to simple reality, and a slight feeling of helplessness.
TIT
Blessings mate. I like your attitude on life. Well suited to Thai culture
You're wrong about the fires on the mountains. It definitely IS people burning the brush away. We have the same thing here in Phetchabun every burning season, and you'll see the same every year now that you've moved into your house close to the mountains. I'm a distance runner, and I run up in the hills and trails above Thaphon Dam in Phetchabun. The rugged dirt roads and trails make it impossible for vehicles to get up there unless they're tractors, dirt bikes, or jacked-up 4-wheels. Even so, there are shacks all up in those hills. People live in those shacks, planting crops and cutting down trees for illegal wood sales. When I first saw those long lines of fires on the mountains during burning season, I thought the same as you--maybe a natural fire. But those fires are deliberately set this time of year. The authorities won't do anything about it, just as they don't do anything but talk about the horrendous air pollution every year from mid-January through March. Fortunately, Southeast Asia has a long rainy season, or you'd see this burning and suffer from the pollution year-round.
Oh thanks for this comment, I’m honestly not sure. All of our neighbours are saying it’s the weather, but yea you’re right, it’s just as likely to be a dodgy cousin 😅
Correct. It's not natural. I live up the road and was looking at the mountain in flames last couple of nights. It was exactly the same last year. My partner told me people light these fires to clean the vegetation so they can find animals to eat and would to cut
Cheers mate - is this the same Bernard who I met in Makro a few days ago? 😇
@@LifeinThailand777Yes, they also clear brush away to force animals out so they can kill them. The reality is, most of Thailand lives in poverty. So many people--my wife included when she was a young girl--must forage for food, whether it be vegetables and greens, ant eggs, frogs, mud fish, "meng-da" (big water bugs that look like giant cockroaches), bamboo, etc. Fortunately for us "Farangs," Thailand has a relatively low crime rate. However, theft does occur, even in the villages where everyone knows everyone. Once when we were away, someone hopped over our wall, cut the lines to our sprinkler pump, and stole it. That's the only time something like that has happened, but it dispelled my naive notion that all Thai country people are relatively honest.
Now, about your night prowler. He was almost surely looking for something to steal. How unnerving that must have been for you! My wife and I have a gun. Whatever you may think about guns, they do provide peace of mind. I was a DEA agent for 21 years, so as a law enforcement officer I was armed every day, and of course I had access to a gun at all times. America is much more violent than Thailand, and a lot of that has to do with Thailand being Buddhist. Still, I wanted a gun, so we got one. As a Farang, I can't buy a gun, but my Thai wife can. We also had some local political connections to help facilitate the acquisition and licensing. We have neighbors much closer to us than you do, but we're still quite rural. I doubt that we'll ever need to use or even threaten someone with the gun, but it is on my bedside table every night, and back in a safe every day. If we were living where you are, I'd definitely be worried without a gun, but that's me and my cynical, suspicious, wary law enforcement background.
@LifeinThailand777 Hi Ben. Yes it's me
Just a note on the fires. I too live in Phetchabun in the Pa Sak River valley north of the city, mountains to the East and West. The burning is locals clearing the under-bush so they can do their hunter-gatherer thing. Apparently it helps with the wild mushrooms and other jungle stuff. I can see burning up in Khao Kho this evening. Did you see anything similar when you were there recently?
No we didn’t see any burning there last week, I’m envious of where you live - such a beautiful location around there. My fave place in Thailand 🙏
@LifeinThailand777 yes we are very lucky. Suits me too as I enjoy wildlife photography and there are a few nice national parks nearby.
I purchased a few solar cell lamps that brightens up all the dead spots along my property. It certainly won’t stop intrutions but definitely a deterrence especially for having two long driveways similar to yours. Good on you for your pups looking out👍🏽
I’ll get on this, great idea thanks 🙏
Plenty of motion-sensing solar floodlights available too at Thai Watsadu and Global House.
I have motion sensing solar LED lights.
From ebay.
Nice and bright.
👍🇮🇪🇨🇳🇵🇸🇷🇺
Wow! Ben, that was closed with the intruder, but never ever go outside of your house in the middle of the night or early morning to investigate, for your own safety. Perhaps you can instal more sensor lights around the house. Take care.
Intruders: You might want to consider a 2m-high concrete block security fence a little ways out (5-10m) from your current low-level decorative garden wall. My wall cost about 130K฿ to build (labor and materials) and it’s about the length of what yours might be. That wall, with a high & heavy slider gate (lockable), and three dogs are a pretty secure arrangement. Plus, I have real and fake security cameras quite easily visible to a would-be intruder. Both intruders and dogs know that anyone setting foot inside THAT perimeter will pay a tough price.
This perimeter wall can be nicely painted and considerably beautified with shrubs and landscaping. Fairly cheap to do in our area.
Do also consider adding heavy duty grills at all entrances and exits, yes it may seem like you are living in jail but that's the reality of living in 3rd world.
2m walls are good and the Asian way is also to add spikes and or embedded glass shards.
@@stephenang499 A little OTT imo,.especially the glass,.
@@cabovermikebut common in south east asia.
No thanks 😅
@@LifeinThailand777 You'll regret it, your not taking this seriously
Hi Ben, I'd say the positive here is that you can take this as a warning which had no consequences. Just a harmless reminder to stay vigilant. Its great this guy knows you have dogs to alert you. Maybe keep a close eye on the dogs in the near future and LOCK THE GATE! 😂 take care mate 💙
Local authority is to be informed and called every time you see fire. I do it just about every year. I live too close to the mountain in Kanchanaburi, that was my mother's choice and I moved to live with her now, she's 90. Starting summer every year we always have to look out for this crazy madness of thess guys looking for honey, wild things or whatever by burning bush, mostly bamboo, and the fire come downhill towards all the houses. Because it's close to town, the fire truck comes but not often enough. But what we do now is made the fire wall and plant a lot of pricky pear cactus around the foothill as much as possible. It helps to some extent! Also I am thinking about growing more banana around to kind of keeping fire not too close to my backyard. So far, my house wasn't burnt down just yet, too close many times! Good luck to you. My friend always remind me, be nice to the local government and your neighbors, it will pay off for you.
I must say I am envious of your Thailand real estate that is continuing to develop beautifully. That is so much work, but I am sure it will be all worth it in the end. I love the "office" location.
Thanks 👍👍
7k views, your best ever, it shows we love what you offer us, good guard dogs
be careful after the potential break in. a nice big house you probably look like a very rich farang to them. never trust anybody they may be neighbours but you don't really know these people. maybe look at installing cctv all around the house as you are now a target for them.
Morning Ben. Take care with intruders, as others have said motion activated solar flood lights and good quality day & night security cameras are a must.
I might have to install multiple layers of razor wire to deter the in-laws also 😂
That office location is great, maybe an office upgrade similar to @ParadiseNThailand would be good? Nice little sala on the bank overlooking the dam.
Must have raised the adrenaline levels a bit mate. Get a Solar PIR light at the beginning of your drive, or along it. CCTV dedicated to your gate. I had a similar issue a few years ago, someone trying to steal a step ladder and extension cable. Got a still photo off the CCTV and village elder did the rest.
Good tip, it’s on my list 😇😇
They are not stupid, they may one day wake up and start wearing masks and gloves and full covered clothing, just do not take safety for granted.
Living in Perth, Western Australia, that's no surprise to me to see the fire. Shocking over here, especially this time of year and in this extreme heat we have at the moment. But it's always concerning. At least in Thailand, rain shouldn't be far away. And you've got plenty of water around you!
Mate the place looks great. Maybe a few CCT infrared cameras around the place for further protection.
Am sure is farming burn and with wind is a concern. But you live in big house for locals in Isaan so that life. What you CAN do is have a fire break around your house. Clear 12feet of ground and build a ditch which can act break
Thanks for your nice video!
The dogs are growing fast. Enjoy your life
greetings from Khonkaen and Holland
At my village “community forest” (2 km from my place) locals will set fires in the forest and not supervise the flames, leaving them unattended. Supposedly the ashes (?) help the wild mushrooms grow.
Good to see the local barber has returned.
Just to help put your mind at ease, there is a barbed wire perimeter fence at the base of that mountain, usually with a nearby dirt access road. This perimeter is patrolled pretty regularly by the national park rangers. I’ve run into them occasionally on my mountain bike forays into the area. For these reasons (patrols and perimeter roads), the fires rarely stray into the farmlands and woodlands at the mountain base. I’ve yet to see that happen.
I think the fire starters know they’d be in big trouble if their fires started to regularly stray onto private lands. So, there’s kind of a “truce” or gentleman’s agreement between the foragers and the rangers that the fires stay on the mountain.
It doesn’t help the air quality much, but at least your property is pretty safe from this man-made activity. (See other comment).
Cheers,
John
John this is a very good comment mate, thank you! And it’s good to know that actually it is ppl starting the fires - senseless of course, but at least now I know 😅
I was just thinking (if you haven’t already got one) maybe invest in a drone. You can patrol your farm and check out fires etc etc from the comfort of your balcony or the office chair. As for the prowler, I think I’d have a Rottweiler (as well as Stamp & Judy) if I lived out in the middle of nowhere lol. Great video. Enjoyed it.
I've been living in Thailand for almost 2 years now and it was just last night I got thinking, as humans and we meant to go through every emotion regardless of our surroundings?! I noticed the wind was blowing away from your farm. Easy to say "don't sweat the small stuff" as im guilty of it myself. this is more of a pointer that maybe we should all try harder to stress less.
Anyway, good to see you still posting videoe's. Keep upbeat and hopefully we can meet one day do I can buy you a beer 👍
security cameras are cheap as are solar lights. Set those up and you can lie in bed and see what is going on. Best protection would be a large dog,. A Farang living in an isolated spot will be robbed sooner or later unless he takes precautions. Locals are generally great but word spreads and you are a tempting target for professionals who travel.
Im just sayin... if someone is on yr driveway at 2am! Its the start of the scoping things out... watch youre 6 now!
Create a roll out barbed wire coil with wooden posts, roll out onto youre driveway every evening! A worthwile headache!
They do this on international sea crossings w cargo ships!
About 10km of the mountain ridge between Khon Kaen and Nong Bua Provinces is ablaze today. Thick smoke and limited driving visibility. It’s the worst I’ve seen it. Not a government official in sight.
Greetings from Derby U.K.
Enjoyed the video with all the drama & action👍
Hi Ben
We won't be as rural as you on our farm ,other farm house quite close and a lot off family but i do think there are a few bad Thai's as in any other parts off the world especially when they see nice house etc. your dogs are a great alarm but sadly i have known then to go missing too keep them in your compound
When they burn the sugar normaly at night and whats left from rice harvest straw ect ( we us for our cows) it can be a little worrying especially near house
Believe me mate your definatley living not just the dream but the dream off a many others who unable to take the plunge and go for it keep enjoyingthe life
Hope one day to catch up for chat and a beer i sure we got many things in common
cheers Gary and Mon 😎🍻
I really enjoy your videos. Keep making them at your fun pace. I was born and raised in Thailand until 10th grade (ม.ศ. 3) and make a permanent home in San Jose, California. It is neat to see you navigating your life with your wife in Thailand. Big thump up!
What a lovely comment, thanks so much 🙏
You know, I bet the guy with the cows knows who the guy with the stick is. I’m not being flippant. Thai farmers live in villages for good reasons.
Everyone knows everyone. Even that seriously understates the complexity of that knowing. There are hierarchies and histories and roles and behaviours and compromises etc that even Thai outsiders would struggle to understand. That all supports things that are good and things that are bad - at least to a westerner. To the locals it’s just “Mai pen rai”.
It would seem you live outside that village support/burden structure and that’s fine if you understand the support you won’t get and the obligations you don’t need to meet. You’ll need to fill the gaps yourself as you see fit.
Note, this is all true for the dogs too. The local dogs are raised in the village and know what’s what and who’s who. They know not to eat chickens and who is allowed near their house and who is a stranger in the village, who is top dog etc etc.
Was the guy aggressive towards you? Maybe he wanted to warn you of something. That's the problem with the language barrier. In my opinion/experience, Thailand is far far safer to live than in the UK and that's the better parts of the UK I'm talking about.
I totally agree with you. I’ve lived here 3 years now and this is the first time I’ve experienced anything like this. He wasn’t aggressive no, but he had no explanation as to why he was there. I spoke in Thai to him and he could understand me.
i would be straight down the macro and get another camera system and a few motion sensor lights, especially a camera maybe 20/30 feet inside the driveway to catch a good image of peole coming in..i can very much relate to the kinda insecure feeling after an experience like that, i had a break in years back in an apartment complex and it took a while to be able to relax at night . 2 very large eastern european guys had managed to open my front door and were entering my bedroom when i snapped awake, i dont rekon the fancied their chances so hightailed it out of there, the only problem was i chased after them with no phone or keys and the door slammed shut behind me..was a nightmare
Oh god that sounds awful 😅
@@LifeinThailand777 was fairly nerve racking, but they got nothing and were actually caught the next morning after breaking into i think it was like another 5/6 places, took quite a while to feel the same comfort in my space but it passes. just make sure you lock everything up and pop in a extra camera and motion lights for extra peace of mind, you can get a solar powered drive light with motion sensor and camera built in.
@4KChillVibes. A friend of mine rented a ground floor apartment with a skylight window directly above his bed, and he woke in middle of the night one time with an intruder lay across the skylight staring down at him from above, screwdriver in hand 🤣
@@LifeinThailand777 oh shit... no thats effed up.. thats why im looking for maybe 5/6 floor condo when i move to thailand... only thing coming in is mosquittos and pidgeons
@LieinThailand777 OMG I WOULD PROBABLY PISS MYSELF 😮
Maybe some outside spray lights all around your house and a alarm system if someone gets past your dogs..
You’re living the dream Ben! My dream 😂 so glad to see you back & keep these wonderful videos coming 😊
Thanks so much, and I hope you enjoy Udonthani (I think it was yourself and your husband visiting, unless I’ve confused you with another subscriber 😅)
@@LifeinThailand777 myself, husband and dad! Visiting family in the countryside and UD Town. We’re in Phuket now…..prefer it two years ago!
That's wwhy i have some solar lampposts on our property and a few cameras. I have never experienced something criminal here but just to be on the save side.
I saw the fires too last night on the mountain viewed from the house whe are staying near Nong Buha Lamphoo,spectacular nevertheless at night.Wat worried me more it’s the pollution.Every morning i clean the table for breakfast with white tissue and it’s black stuff wats coming off,so imagen that stuff you breathe in everyday 😮
Yeah myself and Anna have been coughing constantly last few days. It seems like a totally irresponsible and nonsensical solution to whatever the issue up the mountain is. Maybe that’s me being a clueless patronising westerner, but so be it if it is. I just think surely in 2024 there’s a more considered solution to whatever the problem is. A little bit of critical thinking wouldn’t go amiss up that mountain 🤣
Beautiful home .Beautiful vacation spots. New but enjoying the channel. That's scary.
Thanks and welcome 🙏
Nice walk around
We have a high fence around our compound and cameras everywhere, it sounds like we are paranoid but the fence is mainly for the pythons/cobras and the cameras are for the wife to watch her puppies while she is in the states. There has been petty theft around the village occasionally but probably far less than America. We do have a bad ass soi dog (my favorite dog that will get spoiled when I move to Thailand) that patrols the perimeter while 4 ferocious in looks only pitbulls live the life of luxury inside the fence. I worried about building a modern two story house like yours because I didn't want to attract to much attention, but the wife had it her way 555. I think we only live an hour away from you in Phanokkao right below the big mountain.
Hi Ben In Country Australia farmers etc have a Fire pump and hoses to protect your own private property just a idea
Great idea 👍
there are food factory.
Probably just set off by someone having a BB or motorbike exhaust, common in dry weather. In NZ we had this issue all the time too.
1 security camera photo with the leader of the village and the shame will be enough to deter them. wild that they pick out your lonely house, but i guess that's how it goes sometimes
Ben, a little bit of street advice……..never rush into trouble without first having a Quick Look to survey the area. Yes, it was 2am so it was dark so hard to see. Mate most people are never by themself so always believe there are two or more, always believe they have a weapon or two and if you are going to grab or fight go complete pittbull for a few seconds because that is all it takes. Probably you know this already so wish you well and all the best.
❤👍🏻House is looking great & those trees have grown so quickly. Make sure you have your phone if it happens again & maybe a lazer like the Police have. 💞💞
Cameras and dogs (large)
Do you have any idea how lucky of a human being you are
It must have been scary, I don't think I would have challaged him without some king of weapon. I would have a look at getting 1 or 2 security cams on motion detection put at different points down the drive you can link them to your phone very cheep to do these days and pre warned is pre armed.
Try living in Australia, if the floods aren't taking your home the fires are .
Now it's illegal in Thailand for burning. You may inform the local government and also ask your neighbours for supporting this issue. Again, burning in farm is prohibited. The government takes it seriously.
I think it’s a touchy topic, especially in such a rural area. I know it’s illegal, but the issue comes with the policing of it 🙏
what would it change to inform the local government other then ego stroking? Worst case is that the person responsible for the fire is paying you a visit because you ratted on him. Best not to intervene, keep quiet about it - rainy season comes for sure :) Accept burning season with all consequences, nothing will change in the foreseable future.
👍👍👍
Many things are illegal but corruption is rampant so try not to be naive.
Illegal. Lol. They've not stopped any illegal burning in my area and forest fires are out of the question anyways. Just not in the culture to enforce these kinds of laws that require direct confrontations.
I think the solution might be to get a bigger bamboo stick !
🤣🤣🤣
I would wall the land.. like 2m tall proper fence.. not just the wire with a solid gate in front... so nobody can just walk in
That would cost quite a bit.
@@valandil86I did that before I built a house. About 130K฿ for the project, about 10-15m out from the house.
@@jdavies212msu Yes, would cost something like that for just the house. But He got a lot more land than just the house.
Hi Ben,I say the entruder was there no good intentions,before had my security camera's and good guard dog had two breakin,my pitbull best thing since sliced bread,we bit remote like you,but sleep better with out Tassie dog on roam in house yard.may be look at more aggressive dog for house.Get some solar security for driveway and gate.you get targeted again being remote and farang.
All good points Ross, cheers 👍
Have you thought about what you can do should any medical problems befall you and need immediate attention , like going fast to the hospital ?
Could of the bamboo bean a fishing rod my wifes grandma has had problems with people fishing her dam in the nights
Well they might have no food 😒,, have you tried to step in their shoes 😊
So excited!
I big led spotlight on the driveway, and as some mentioned, a few solar lights to give some extra light and / or a shotgun...joking
Thanks for sharing all your travels
Shish Keebab mate, that's some scary stuff. Bet that had your heart pumping, maybe a bamboo stick by your door might be a good idea!! Take care
Why haven't you got CCTV with big sign on Driveway also I never go outside to investigate noise without a machete 😮
We have 4 cameras but unfortunately it took this event for us to realise that 2 cameras don’t actually work 😅
I wonder if he was actually out hunting frogs, as ive seen a few rural thai videos where people are out creeping about all night whacking frogs with sticks??
but he could equally be a thief
Those fires are intentionally lit. They do this every year.
That's one thing I worry about, when I move there, is how safe. But burglar's/intruders are everywhere, just make sure you have a bigger bamboo stick than them lol, keep safe❤
No chance a Thai would go check at 2am in the night without a proper weapon. Then even try to grab him without knowing if he had a knife or gun? That was pure luck nothing serious happened, a (farang-) life is not worth much here and you are most probably well know amongst the criminals in the area. If you didn't yet, it's time to think about security and protection of your wife and yourself.
I'm pretty certain you can not shoot to kill if people are warned and won't leave your property. Many rural states in the US have this law and it's needed given how vast the land is. Same policy should be in place in rural Thailand too.
Good advice, my comment on security was either removed by RUclips or Ben ?
It’s very rare that I remove a comment, maybe it was flagged by YT. Certain key words are automatically red flagged, but occasionally they make mistakes 😇
Is your wife safe as your back in Blighty?
I mentioned this in a comment when you first started about security bud, you WILL be driven out if you dont have the very best security, I absolutely guarantee this, you need a gun for sure, these people have nothing and do you really believe they will let you live like a King (that is what they will think) next to them whilst they starve? What happens next time when there are 3 of them? Please be very careful. I know and Im sorry this is extremely negative but its reality.
Nobody is starving where we live. They’re all farmers and everyone knows everyone else, including us. The guy who I grabbed in middle of the night had mental problems. He did the same thing to another farm house down the road, on the same night and was chased away. These horror stories do the rounds constantly but I’ve never heard of it actually happening to anyone. It’s always “it happened to someone who knew someone” etc.
I appreciate the concern though 🙏
comment below ,well yes ,I could write a book about my experiences here the past 22 years . Not seen this blog but got to be in the north somewhere . I've live in Sa Kaeo in the east bordering Cambodia . I have on average about 15 dogs ,feeding more than 20 every day , the stories I could tell . Weather in LOS is predictable ,but surprisingly it did rain today ,always hot but I love it .
re comment below , ' helplessness' only if you haven't got satang ,if you've got the dosh then everything is hunky dory .
I'm from London ,Chiswick but living here is so beautiful ,stunning scenery .
Your intruder ,get it now and again ,some of the local folks are a bit weird ,well to us ,I've had lots of episodes ,good luck understanding their words . You would be accountable if anything happened ,you farrang ,same as a road accident . But ,where do your muts sleep ? ,no way could anyone get into my gaff without me knowing ,the dog's barking would be deafening
"choc dee"
Thanks Ian, great comment mate 🙏
On top of the suggestions I’ve read I would add getting a high powered hand torch. One that can blind an intruder long enough for you to leg it if they have a weapon.
Yes padlock gate every nite and never put your hands on a thai person as often they carry knife. You shoukd have a weapon inside house, even a stick just to threaten intruders and auto light sensors which come on. Be safe & sensible
My buddies house in Texas has a safe loaded with guns. Semi automatics, pistols, shotguns. He also has assorted Samurai swords dotted around the house. 😁😁😁😁
Get security camera mate
We have 4 cameras but it took this event to realise that actually 2 of them don’t work 😅
Big walls, lots of lights, cameras, dogs. All of it.
Which region you live? I stay in khon kaen, we should drink a beer together someday👍
Im north of khon Kaen, on the edge of nong Bua Lamphu and Loei provinces 👍
@@LifeinThailand777 That`s not far from me, we life in Phu Wiang😉👍
yes definetely scary, thailand they come with bamboo, uk guns and knives, well done stamp and judy,,my dog baxter,a jack russell here in pattaya barks at anything walking by my place, no alarms or cameras needed lol
It's Thailand and the government don't give a f... about how the poor air quality affects peoples health.
Security cameras !
Are you sure it wasn't a ghost? Thais love their ghost stories and you say he just disappeared. Maybe a long gone previous owner 555
Do you get ticks there?
The dogs pick up ticks occasionally, but no more than anywhere else 👍
Thanks for replying
Is your wife safe ?
On my birthday, about 12 yrs ago, the island fought fire. We think a cigarette. I was awaken by my eldest son screaming! These crazy fires are often started by dumb tourist!
But you must have some on your Security Cameras?
We have 4 cameras but unfortunately this event made us realise that 2 of them weren’t actually working 😅. They’ve since been fixed. Wake up call 👍
Do you get many snakes out there Ben ?
I’ve only seen one on our farm, although I’m careful to walk quite loudly. I’m sure there’s lots but they bugger off before I get there 👍
Careful. They often carry guns and machetes. Keep no money or gold in the house. Do not show off your wealth with new cars and such like. Best to look like a poor farang with no money
That’s lucky, because a poor farang with no money is exactly what I am 😇
Punji traps😂😂😂
👍🇮🇪🇨🇳🇵🇸🇷🇺
Once again my comment has either been deleted by you or you tube so starting to get fed up of contributing sound advice to you when all i am is concerned for your welfare !!!
I appreciate all comments, it’s not me deleting anything. Like I said, YT will often red flag comments that contain certain words or if they detect a particular theme etc. It’s all automated and so it’s often a far from perfect system. I really am very appreciative of your advice. It means a lot 🙏
My comments on YT channels often go 'missing' but I really couldn't care less.
No point getting stressed about it.
Same reason I don't get stressed when a parcel I'm expecting goes 'missing'.
Stolen not 'missing'😂😂👍🇮🇪🇨🇳🇵🇸🇷🇺
If this goes 'missing' I will go mental😡😡😂😂
