What camera are you using mate? Thanks for the video!
Getting a bank account was a bit of a nightmare for me. More importantly, Where do you get your Guinness??
How much for the apartment?
Hi Richie! I’m going to Thailand, how did you open bank account? I have been there 2 years ago, I’ve been told it is impossible. I’m European who lives in England. My wife is Thai. Thanks!
@@gossipopithecus Lots of paperwork required - easier as your wife is Thai - you could get a joint account and then convert to other visa, such as retirement and then get an individual account. Make sure you have an ID which matches your passport country, such as driving licence. Arguments such as I have not lived in my country of birth for 20 years are meaningless here!
Thanks for feeding the dog, you have a heart of gold.
As soon as Maybelle fed the doggy you got me as a new sub and fan. So sweet and caring!
Very kind and thoughtful of maybelle to feed the dog👍
I love how you bought the dog 🐕 food Maybell 👍🤣👏
Hi Felicity how are you doing today
Another fantastic vlog Richie and Maybelle roll on November first visit to Maybelles coffee garden keep living the dream take care see you soon
Maybelle is gorgeous 🤎🤍💚 I love all of her dresses 🙏🏽 I’m too tall for the short styles 😭
@Linda Loo don’t try to be funny because she’s old enough to wack you in the face 🤭
🤣🤣💥
Great job on the video once again.
So nice she gave that cute pup some food. Thanks for the information. Hope to visit someday!
I'm moving to Phuket this january. I'm hope to hire you to find me a place to live Homa looks nice like you said good to start. Love how well behaved that dog is that Maybelle was feeding. What a sweetie.
Great video Richie and Maybelle, loads of really useful information and that Homa place looks like a really good find. Definitely going to have a look at that.
Great video guys, keep them up. Learning a lot on these videos about retiring in Thailand. Thanks again
So cute that Maybelle wanted to feed the dog. 😊🙏
Very informative video again guys. Good to know you can still live well on a reasonable budget 🎉
Maybelle your a sweet lady. Warm and caring
Chris, in my mind, it's smart to live on a budget period. 🤨
Great vid guys. Well done. Great content, keep'n it real as per usual. Appreciated. 🙏
Hi Richie and Maybelle! We called in the other day and had a awesome breakfast (top notch!) nice to meet you guys and thanks Maybelle for taking a photo of me and my wife sitting on the love heart ❤️ we got home yesterday to cold Australia 😢Keep the vlogs going! Cos we miss Thailand!
Awesome video and love the channel. Loads of no BS information. Love it. Can't wait till I retire there!
When I move to Thailand, I will have to source my own food and cook it at home. Every food vlog I see on Thailand/Philippines, shows food that’s so bad for your health.
MSG thing is a myth. Research it.
@@dextermorgan4093 “Hello, Dexter Morgan” Season 4 Episode 11…if my comment offended you, I’m sorry…please don’t take me to your kill room.
Great video. Thanks for sharing 💪🏽😁
Great info! Thanks!
Hey Gentle man Good to see you videos...We met in Phuket last time 😍👍
Love you guys - very authentic. I wish you the best for the future.
So awesome thank you for the video, living on prince of Wales Alaska all my life . we don't have a stop lights or a mall , we just fish hah .... you guys are making it real hard to say no to a vacation in you're wonderful island .
Great video again you 2 . I'm looking at retiring to Thailand in the new year so video's like this are useful. I will visit Phuket, but probably my base will be around pattaya. Cheers
Great video. Thanks for the exchange graphics
Such a beautiful couple. Super sweet kind wife man. You did good :) God bless you both!! 💕
Apart from the information I like the music, and video well done, including the British sense of humour..lol
You two are very cool. Great video- informative & enjoyable
This was great guys! Definitely enjoyed the night market and Homa for a long term stay. Good to see that mall coming back to life I remember how it was last may during COVID EMPTY lol
Love your blog, finely two real people make videos about thialand .
Love it guys! Great to see you both since the last visit at Maybelle's for Paddy's party! Hope you are both well and that your shop is thriving and happy! I will be back in Thailand in November later this year.
Great Bargain ideas ! This video will help our Family of 6 save money when we come to phuket in December. We want to check out Maybelle's Coffee Garden and try your great BBQ and foods.
Thankyou. Great perspective on Phuket.
I think living on a budget means something else for a western person, in Thailand. Compared to the locals, the western "budget" still means alot!
Yes I'd like to see a real cheap "budget" that a westerner would put up with/enjoy.
@Alex Arthur thats the best way if you cant beat them join them
@@JC-bqq i'm in Udon thani but can get chicken skewer and rice for 30 bhat. Add a second skewer if really hungry (they are big) for a total of 50 bhat. Super cheap and delicious. Many cheap meals around just depends on what you can/will eat.
@@gymratt17 ....How about accommodation gymratt17?
Exactly right. If one is prepared to throw off the shackles of a western way of life and live like a local, eat like a local and behave like a local a low budget will spread far. The budgets of sexaholics , alcoholics and western food cravers will not last long unless they have very deep pockets.
What a great video very appealing
Very nice thank you. Class and honest.
Very informative video. Helps a lot to understand what are the prices in Phuket and in general food options 😌 thanks for sharing
Very interesting to see how much goods and food costs. Love Maybelle. When she fed the dog, I subscribed.
Thank you for sharing ! Enjoy ...
Thanks for a fantastic video
So positive 👍😉❤️🇹🇭
Yes true its good to figure out the lifestyle you want and can afford and then work a budget around it. And really there is a budget for every type of lifestyle you want. And the price of things can vary alot around Thailand too. But you still have to live have fun and treat yourself as well living here like you would anywhere else.
Thank you very much Richie and Maybelle for a well done informative cost of living in Phuket. My husband and I are thinking about coming to Phuket in the next few months for a long stay and this budget is similar to what we spend in Pattaya now.
As always direct, honest no BS👍🏻
Thanks guys for a great in-depth video. Regards Rusty
thank you for the video,
New subscriber awesome video. ❤️
Great video, nice done.
...tks honest report...bravo...saludos
Great vid 👍🏻
I will come in January 2 Phuket the video shows me new prospective 2 mix budget with high quality 😎
Greetings from Munich Germany 🇩🇪 🍺
Always nice to see you guys, your adventures, your daytime filling explorations.... love it. Can you show one time what kind of camera you're using, iPhone or GoPro or anything else, please... Have a great time, hope to hear and/or see from you soon.. Enjoy !!🤗
he said iphone & theres a link to this here
Fascinating! Your daughter knows all the great places!
😂
lovely Vid: Phuket wonderful place, great ex-pat base with an international airport (thats easy to traverse), greetings from Surat.
Your videos are always entertaining and informative. Congratulations to your successful business.
Wow its changed so much in a short time, designer malls wow, love the old style better, great video guys, very informative
It's why some now goto Vietnam. Not as westernized yet. I say yet because it's inevitable.
Nice night maket and Beautiful luxury mall and Best luxury condo 😉🤙❤️
great vlog as always! Chillva is a great budget place. Gilette toiletries are expensive, agreed! Can live cheap in Thailand, but not as cheap as some other youtubers believe :D as a farang you need to pay for visa and health insurance. Cheaper than UK, USA, and almost all european countries for sure.
We're in Patong on the 9th September for 3 weeks. We'll grab a cab and come down and see you guys.
Lemmy is dead. :(
Great video as always 👍🤣
New sub. I subbed because you fed the dog which is a sign of a good person. Good content as well.
Great video 🙏🇩🇰❤
that was the best blog for the coast of living that was not tobad when u look at where u r living I like cha am
Wow!! really magical wonderful, striking marvelous stunning fascinating & magnificent videos of Thailand... Your last few videos made me your fan; I love pleasant pleasing & amusing brand of videos
Hiya, good to see the difference in prices. Cinema here is 6 quid a person. Just goes to show it all swings in roundabouts. Prices of food, Uk so much more. Good video. Good vibes. Happy Wednesday.
Great to watch you too, well done maybelle for feeing rhe dog, woman after my own heart 👍👍💜
It’s so crazy that this is food court food an it looks fabulous. Nothing like an American food court that’s for sure.
Well certainly went through the lot there 😆 🤣 😂 ... enjoyed the different places
We went to go to Naka in Feb and didn’t realise they weren’t open on a Friday night, so ended up at Chillva. It was a great little market. We shopped, ate, had a drink and bought some cute shoes.
Can the wife cook ?
that would save you a fortune . . If not get a new wife .
summed it up nicely Richie at the end, you are in one of the top tourist destinations in the world, Phuket has every thing ( almost) Thailand has to offer, mountains, beaches, jungle, wildlife , walks , food , quiet, loud. I was back in LOS in July , pattaya, krabi, kanchanaburi, Ayutthaya and bkk, 3 weeks , phuket next time and will come to see you both
Thailand as gone bad tourist are always getting assaulted there my girlfriend is filpino and i am from the UK tourist seem to be going there now
Can tourists live all year round ?
hi like your channel just subscribed
Great video Richie & Maybelle, in regards to parking at airports, most airports in the uk now charge you £5 just to use the drop off and pick up lane, absolutely a rip off especially as you’re not parking.
Hi both, great info on your videos, will call in for lunch in the new year. Do you have recommendation for condo, 1 bed 20k or less rental in Karon as fancy a month in that area around Feb. Thanks
You have an excellent voice. Great UK accent very professional, I can understand every word. Easy to listen. You should consider doing voice overs professionally. You’d be great 👍 Love your videos. You and Maybell have very good chemistry. Kept up the good work. 🙏
Great video thanks for share 😀👍❤️where is this market
You Guys are Great ! Your videos show your integrity, honesty and just being real people. I am considering moving to a project named Waterside, in Wichit, would you consider reviewing the condos in Waterside ? could you review and give your opinion of the neighborhood, security, and value ? I would love to contribute to your channel , thanks very much. Oh and how far is Wichit from where You Guys live ?
Thanx Richie.
Great couple!
Just saw you on old dog. I enjoyed the video and agree with you, sometimes you have to treat yourself. Peace
Great Video, I agree you can be thrifty at times and splurge to enjoy. So many people put out video like you can live on 800, 900, 1,200 USD, it nice seeing some real info. I am budgeting 2k USD per month, with the ability to adjust up if needed. Can't wait to arrive
Phuket is quite expensive and you can live with 1K and still have fun and good food.
My wife and I live on about 55,000 baht a month and still save a bit left over,everyone's taste is different yours maybe less
I found out if u shave after a shower and keep the blades clean they will last a long time
Very good video
Yo guys fab video as always richie your next big business venture will be a version of boots ( UK branches for toiletries, beauty fragrances etc). In phukett. You guys enjoy life. 💚🧡💛
220 THB for 2 meals is awesome. That's like 8 Canadian Dollars. WOW! Damn cheap guys! Thanks for sharing ang keep up the great work!
At the bar . Should have been Leo beer . That's what the adults like 🤣🤣
This video just makes me wanna buy a one way ticket 🥰🥰🥰
Maybelle is so kind and patient , lovely lady with no tattoos ❤. A unit rental in Australia is 32000 bht per month, crazy 🤪😢
1 problem with Homa, 30 min to sea.
At KATA now - 5 min walk to beach, I like it
Nice vid. I spend 6 months Thailand/Vietnam every year. After my condo, electrics, water scooter rent bills I got around 2000bht a day spending money. More than enough for a great life for me. Mind you, I dont go to girlybars and drink beers only at weekends. So a normal day costs me around 1200 and in weekends 2500. 70k a month is a fine number for me
Hola. Awesome video. What's the name of the intro song? Thx you.
I think it's a smart thing to do to live on a budget when you just moved, because you also need time to get used to everything and increase your budget over time. Great video guys. in excactly 2 weeks from now, I'll be coming to Thailand.
You are really welcome...okay
@@tomgodheart4557 thank you
18200 thb this month of August....never to the bar, stand up paddling at sea everyday and happy.
@@didierplouhinec4899 that's nothing. But what did you include in that amount?
Also health insurance?
And are you retired overthere or are you on a different visa?
Chris this is all my expenses without the health insurance I paid last month for one year . It costs me 58 859 thb. I have a notebook where I write absolutely all my expenses. I came to live here 6 months before my retirement on oct the first with 8000 euros and started to get my pension on may this year. AS YOU SAID, I prefered to be careful. I own a Honda 500 for which the insurance is 11500 thb per year. Since 11 months I upgraded my big bike, bought a 21000 thb paddleboard and a 12000 thb carbon paddle, travelled 13700 km on my bike . But for food, room, water, electricity, sex, gasoline, internet, clothes,hair cut and all daily expenses I do not spend more than 20000thb. 76442 in july but if you remove the health insurance it is only 17583 thb
Hi Ritchie and Mabellegreat channel, long time watcher and subscriber, must say Mabelle is a smart intelligent beautifull woman your alucky man and a great couple together keep happy be safe smile cheers
Hi guys will drop in and see you next week going to Phuket in rainy season we baa / but don’t care 5555
Richie.. im from nz and just went out for a night in derby.. it as banging. i reckon you should move back..
I agree, 60,000 baht per month is a livable budget for most people, some can do it for less of course, and some spend much more, but as a good average, 60,000 sounds about right. I will be retiring to Thailand next year, and my budget is slightly more at 65,000 baht per month.
Are you single? If so that is do-able but don't forget about health care.
@Alex Arthur Because you can live within your means. Without a family you don't need a posh house or apartment, you can eat street food and only paying for 1.
Thailand get expensive when you 'don't live Thai' and I hate using that phrase because most of the Thai I know are rich, drive BMW and each in expensive restaurants wear £20,000 watches.
So a car is 3 times the value of Europe, is you want a BMW it's £60,000 for example.
My daughter's school is 500,000B a year. £13,000. Supermarket shopping is more expensive than UK.
@@benrawson007I think if you don’t go for the overpriced luxury lifestyle it’s possible but if I go to Thailand I want to have the same or even better lifestyle than here in Europe.
With a budget around 100k to 200k THB you can have a really good (western) lifestyle at least that’s my experience.
I don’t buy stuff, I rent it (condos, cars…) but actually a cab is much cheaper than a luxury car, so why even buy one? I target Thailand as travel destination and later as a pension domicile.
Here in Switzerland 🇨🇭 school is for free, even the university is free as long as you meet the requirements (grades). There is no reason to go to Thailand before pension. Luckily Swiss pensions are high, around 200k THB monthly is usual.
Alternatively you can go to Vietnam, it’s around 30% to 40% cheaper than Thailand (for now).
Here in patong hope to see you on Tuesday. Got a little surprise for richie????
Is jungceylon shopping centre open? I remember they had lots of different food places, all you can eat hotpot, pre covid when I visited last.
Good video...Maybelle looks great in the dark green...and the rest...Bobby G. Bonham, Texas [Bonum]..82 years young ..Veteran.
Great video. Can i ask what was the name of the cute Thai restaurant and Wes that in Phuket Town?
