WHY WE HAD TO LEAVE AMERICA
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- This video is different from our regular videos but we really wanted to share with you guys WHY we moved to Thailand. Living in Bangkok, Thailand is definitely DIFFERENT from what we are used to back home, in America. Some of our Chovy Fams have asked us what we used to do in America and what our plan is here in Thailand. You can find our answers here in this video, so please watch the entire video to find out.
Why I moved to Thailand and did I make the right decision?
What do you guys think? Would you move to Thailand?

I'm Thai and living in USA. I definitely agree with you guys. If you can make money in USD and live in Thailand, it is absolutely heaven.
I know, right!!?? 🥰❤️🫰🙏
@@ChovyTravelagreed
🥰🫰❤️🙏
But Thai or any foreigners who make in Baht and living in Thailand (locals) are miserable. The cost of living is crazy high for many Thais, and you guys (those who earn in USD) will only make inflation worse over there in a long run.
Earning in Baht would be challenging. I can only imagine 😬
ยินดีต้อนรับสู่ประเทศไทย ขอให้มีความสุขในการย้ายมาอยู่ประเทศไทยครับ มาเที่ยวชลบุรี แวะเยี่ยมเยียนทักทายได้ เดี๋ยวผมพากินพาเที่ยว 🥰💛
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate the love and support! You’re so sweet! 🥹🫰❤️
ภูมิใจที่เกิดบนผืนแผ่นดินไทย เป็นคนไทย รักประเทศไทย และรักทุกคนที่รักประเทศไทย
You should definitely be proud! Beautiful country with wonderful people! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Hi Anthony and Caroline,
I’m glad that you made this video so we can really see what is going on in the US and understand your purpose for moving to Thailand.
I’ve been following you since your first RUclips video three months ago, and what sets you apart from other RUclipsrs is how you truly embrace local cultures.
You open up to see, try, and taste new things. Living like locals is not easy, but you’ve done well so far. Politeness is something you can easily find in most Asian countries, but I personally think that the kindness of local Thais is something unique, and I see this same kindness in both of you too.
Enjoy every moment here in Thailand. Should there be any questions or doubts, I’m sure everyone here is happy to assist ✌️😊.
Hello! It was definitely long overdue. We have been wanting to make this video for some time.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
We appreciate the kind words, love and support! ❤️❤️🫰🫰You’re so sweet! 🥰🥰
I'm glad you chose my country. Have fun living in Thailand. My country is developing And of course, you may experience some imperfections from now on. But I wish you happiness every day.
Beautiful Country! Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏 It’s already quite developed IMO. Imperfections exist in every country but in comparison to America at the moment, seems like a great place to be living 😉😁
It sad to see what's happening in Amerca now. I have a couple of friends living in Seattle and San Francisco for almost 10 years. They're thinking about moving back to Thailand since the city has changed so much and homeless are everywhere. They're not feel safe anymore just like you. I think you made the right decision and I'm so happy for both of you & Mr. Bruno too.❤
100% Agree! 😕 Exactly! Yup!
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
My wife and I are moving to Thailand in November. Can’t wait to see Thailand and experience the country and culture. And it’s because of you guys that we’re doing this. Love you guys.
@@3553sean Welcome to Thailand (in advance)😊
Really!!?? Congratulations! That’s awesome! 🥹🥹🥹 We hope you love it here as much as we do! Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
@@ChovyTravel yep and it’s all because of you guys. After watching all your videos we are convinced and ready for our adventure.
@jjlao1891 Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
@3553sean 🥰🥰🥰 Glad we were able to encourage you to make the jump.
I've got to say that Thais are really hard-working people, and they pay lots of attention to their tourism industry that bring in the big bucks for their economy. I'm glad to hear that both of you (and your pet)have found the retirement spot of your dreams!😊
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate the love! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Good decision. I am heading there,hopefully, in November, to be with my mom.
I took my early retirement at 62 to move to Pattaya. Hope to see you one of those moons...Aloha!
And, you are right. Thai people are so hospitable.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Very Nice! Congrats on the early retirement! 😁😁😁
we only have to look at Honolulu, mainland homeless, free Narcan dispensers for overdoses everywhere and rampant theft etc..Paradise is Lost...😢
Homelessness is definitely a problem 😕
ยินดีต้อนรับค่ะ ขอบคุณสำหรับคำชื่นชมต่อคนไทยและประเทศไทย ทุกประเทศมีทั้งคนดีและไม่ดี แต่เราหวังว่าคุณจะใช้ชีวิตอย่างมีความสุขตลอดไปในไทย ตั้งแต่เริ่มดูคลิปวิดีโอของพวกคุณ สัมผัสได้ว่าคุณสองคนก็เป็นคนจิตใจดี สุภาพ และน่ารัก แทบจะไม่ต่างจากคนไทยเลย Wishing you have a happy and healthy life in Thailand.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Absolutely our pleasure!
Really appreciate your kind words, love and support! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
Learn the Thai language and I guarantee you that your living life here is gonna be another level.
I agree, I’m sure speaking Thai fluently would help us for sure!
Great choice, you can take Thailand as a shelter or home as long as you want. We are happy to have a good quality people here. Hope one day US will fix this problem.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate it! Hopefully! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
Totally agree as a small business owner here. The inflation hit us hard. It’s almost impossible to maintain a healthy work - life balance here as well.That’s why we’re planning to move back to Thailand soon. And you two are part of the reason we’re moving back. Hope to meet you two someday when we’re in Thailand❤️ PS we’re bringing our boy (a Goldendoodle) back home with us too! Thank you for great info from another video!!
Yes! That’s awesome! When are you guys planning to come back to Thailand? So Sweet! 🥹
Cute Goldendoodle! What’s his/her name? NP! Appreciate the love! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
After 5 mins of watching your video I subscribed. I love that you guys inserted the real footages into your storytelling. SUPERB JOB. AND WELCOME TO MY BELOVED COUNTRY!🥰💕
Thank you so very much! 🥰🫰❤️🙏
Appreciate the love and support! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
Wow so much positive energy and thankfully for your perspective views to Thailand nowadays it may say this land of smile is preparing to be the place for recharging relaxing and healing the lifeless soul for many countries hope you two guys enjoy living here.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate your kind words! 🫰🫰❤️❤️ That’s what Thailand should definitely be known for along with great hospitality. Appreciate the love!
As a Thai who lived in Bangkok for over 10 years, I can confirm that you guys have visited more places than I did! Also, great work on the editing it just keeps getting better and better.
Oh really!!?? 😅 Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏 We’re continuously trying to improve 😁 We appreciate you noticing!
Of course, every country has its problems, but I am sure you have made the right choice in Thailand. Welcome to Thailand, and may you adapt quickly.
Indeed! Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Omg i just watched your vdo about first time travel to Thailand and boom moved to Thailand hahah😅 welcome welcome. Im envy, im living in Australia now and it's so hard and expensive.
Lol 😝 how’s Australia? We want to travel to Australia one day. Did you move to Australia from Thailand?
Fc Thailand support you 🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🤟🤟🤟🤟 you
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate the love and support! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
2 of you very nice and kind for you dog. Welcome to Thailand the land of smiles and kind person. ❤️
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
We really appreciate your kind words, love and support! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
As a Thai, my advice to you is to learn some Thai language. Once you've learnt some Thai, you will be able to make more Thai friends. Then, travel outside BKK to meet with other Thais, especially in rural areas. For example, in northern and issan regions, local people will treat you as one of the family. Try and experience some homestays with the local, and then you will have a new perspective of Thai hospitality. Enjoy your time here.
Thank you for the advice! 🥰🫰❤️🙏
We’re learning slowly but surely 😅
Appreciate it! Tyty! 🙏
ขอให้คุณทั้งคู่ มีความสุขในประเทศไทย ที่นี่ปลอดภัยกว่าอเมริกา
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
100% Agree!
I totally understand what you said. The safety of life and property is the first priority to consider. No place is 100% safe but America nowadays i(especially big cities) is too dangerous 😑
🎊Welcome to Thailand🎉We have a word "สบาย สบาย(Sabai sabai)" which means Relaxed, easy going. Majority of Thai people have this personality. I see you two smile a lot in your clips too and that make it easier to get along with Thais. It's good to see you're happier here 😊
Exactly! Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏 We really appreciate the love! We’re definitely happier! 😁
I'm Thai a former thai restaurant owner in Bay area. I saw so many hatred toward asian and SF is just get worse. I decided to sell everything amd moved back to Thailand in 2019 when pendamic shutdown happened. I never regret it i think one of the best decision i've made. I'm glad that you chose thailand and good luck with your new life in Thailand
That was a great decision and we don’t regret it either 😉 Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
As someone who's been living in Bangkok for 10 years now, I agree with everything you said. And as much as we hate what's happening in the US, American's should not forget that the US is still the land of economic prosperity. For example, the US has 1 of the best retirement systems in the world (ie. stock options in their 401k, roth IRA, social security/pension, etc). This is why so many Americans are able to "retire early" and are now living abroad. They have built their wealth in America and are able to live off of interest and/or their real estate cash flow. The opportunity to build wealth isn't something that's available to most people that are from cheaper, lower cost of living countries. Just my opinion as a dual citizen (US and Thailand).
Ofc! We still love America! But with everything going on right now, it’s just not the place we want to me right now.
Totally Makes sense!
😊😊❤❤🇹🇭🇹🇭👍👍 It's Great that both of you and Bruno are happy and enjoying life here in Thailand. Have fun and I look forward to more of your great videos. Cheers!!! 🇹🇭🇹🇭❤❤👍👍😊😊!!

Can totally understand the mental health issues coming from owning small business and working 7 days a week. Glad to hear you guys are doing well in Thailand and living your best lives. Keep up the great content and enjoy life to the fullest.
Yes! It definitely took a toll on us. Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate it! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
Thanks for sharing your story. I totally understand what you meant coz I almost got mugged on the street many times when I lived in the States. But, in reality, Bangkok has its own serious problems too, like inflation, traffics, pollutions, drugs, robberies, violence... you just have to watch local news. I guess locals here have "Sabai sabai" (relaxed/easy going) attitude and just deal with life with possitivity. I'm glad you found peace in Bangkok, but please be careful and take a good care of yourselves. Looking forward to more awesome videos❤
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Really appreciate the heads up and concern! ❤️❤️🫰🫰 Will Do!
🥰🥰🥰
You guys are amazing! Your video about Thailand is unique and quite different from others that I have seen. Because you've actually lived here for some time, you seem very natural and genuine. Both of you are also charming and polite which definitely adds to your credibility. Thank you for your kind words about Thailand and for staying here in my country. You have done a great service to Thailand. I really hope you are happy and enjoy every minute of your stay in the country.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Really appreciate your kind words, love and support! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
Absolutely our pleasure! Glad to be here 😁
Glad to hear that you love Thailand, but sad to hear that living in the US is not pleasant anymore. I used to live in SF Bay area. The weather and the city was very nice (but recently I heard that the area is not good like before). Many of my Thai friends who still there decided when they retire, they will come back and live in Thailand. With $2-3k/mth from Social Security and their savings, they will live happily for sure😊😊😊.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
100% Agree with you! California definitely has by far the best weather. That’s a great idea! 😁
Thank you for sharing your experience. I understand the difference between living in Thailand and the US. We are traveling in Thailand now and we have been enjoying everything ❤
Absolutely our pleasure! Yes! I’m sure you definitely understand where we’re coming from 😅
Awesome! We hope you and your family continue to have a great time and a safe trip back home when it’s time 😉

😂😂😂 Of Course! 😁
In the past, there were pickpockets who were caught by the police as tourists from neighboring countries. After getting their stuff, they would fly back to their country and come back every now and then. However, you have to be careful when going to crowded places.
Icic! Appreciate the heads up!
Will be careful!
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Good Episode Guys...U guys are sincere and really need to place to escape. South East Asia have many countries for u to explore but yes Thailand is really a place to be. Me coming from Singapore have fallen in love with Thailand. My country is also a very stressful when comes to work and standard of living is high too but definitely a safe country. My love thailand is like u, people are lovely and great, friendly and their culture , food and etc etc. Thailand is definitely a safe place as long Respect giving and vice versa. Dun be like those cases that do stupid things that hurt the people of thailand. I hope you guys enjoy the land of smiles to the max. Yes you look very happy too. i always have my trip to BKK and of course coming in Dec to celebrate xmas and new year there. if ever a chance to see u , let have a cup of coffee and mango sticking rice ya...cheers, Bobby (SG)

Welcome to Thailand.
We moved back to Thailand for the same reasons. Thank you for all the positive reviews about Thailand, we hope you enjoy your stay.
Thank you so very much! 🥰🫰❤️🙏
Congratulations! It’s absolutely our pleasure spreading the Truth about Thailand 😉
We’re definitely enjoying it! Tyty! 🙏
Thai people have a saying, " Sabai Sabai " chill chill meaning everything will be alright.
It’s a good saying 😃
As a middle-aged Thai guy, you know that news content and what experience you told about The States.
I've felt the same there in Bangkok. So, I moved to Chiang Mai 2 years ago.
IMO Thailand is like America in many ways.
Oh really? Are you happier in Chiang Mai? What are the biggest differences between Bangkok and Chiang Mai in your opinion?
Just got back to Australia and I miss Thailand prices (and convenience) so much. At least I know I'll be back home in Thailand every year 🥲
I bet! 😅 Heard it was expensive at Australia. Hang in there! 😃
We are welcome you to stay longer. I can see the situation in USA as you described. You made the right decision to leave there. Thai people love to see your channel. I am sure that you will have more subscriber.By the way I got smile when you tell us about your dog getting happier.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate it! 😁😁😁 He really is! 😃
Welcome to Thailand!
As a local, I can say it's pretty safe here. Sure, there are some sketchy areas, but most of the troublemakers are just scared of foreigners because they don't have much education and can't speak English. So, you'll be totally fine!
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
We would have to agree! 😉 Much safer here and no matter where you go there will always be sketchy parts.
When people ask, Is Thailand safe? I think we can tell them this. Thailand has 14,000+ 7-11s that open 24/7 absolutely everywhere whether in big cities, small towns or countryside.
🥰❤️🫰🙏
I know is all you guys talk about truly I’m from FL thanks 🙏 nice to watching your videos…

I know an American who moved there. He loves it and says it is very welcoming to Americans, Europeans, and other foreigners. Cost of living is low.
Very True! 😃

Welcome to Thailand. I'm so pleased that all of your family have such a good time here. Please help us preserve, protect and enrich our warm society for more people who can't find a secure heart-warming place to call home. No matter of how much different we are, as long as we have same good heart to treat each other, life will always be good. ❤😁
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Definitely agree! With good intentions come great outcome 😁
Nice to hear your story guys, good luck with your new life in Thailand 😊

Oh! Even little Bruno is happy 😭😭😭 He's very lovely though 🤍🤍🤍🤍
You guys should move to Thailand so you don't have to miss Thailand anymore! 😁😁😁😁😁
Yes! He’s definitely more ecstatic now he’s living in Thailand. We already have but just not permanently 😅.
I made the same decision after living in CA for 35 yrs. The USA hasn't been the same since 9/11:((
Good Call! A lot has changed for the worse in CA/US. 😕🤦
ในความเป็นจริง ประเทศไทยก็มีสิ่งที่ไม่ดี คุณจะค่อยๆเข้าใจเมื่อคุณมาอยู่ที่นี่สักระยะ แต่ผมก็หวังให้คุณเจอแต่สิ่งดีๆ อย่าได้เจอสิ่งไม่ดีครับ ขอให่คุณมีชีวิตที่มีความสุขที่นี่ครับ.
Appreciate you letting us know!
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Born and raised in Bkk. Moved to Los Angeles back in 2001. In the past 4 year I went back to Thailand many times. Most of the time I spent two months at least in Thailand. Cost of living in the US are insane now. Tax and consumer product price went up and seem it not going to stop. That kill everything. I plan to move back very soon.
My saving money will stay longer in Thailand without working. I totally agree with you for all about California thing that getting worse and worse.
Icic! I can only imagine how bad it really is right now. Couldn’t agree with you more. It’s not worth it to live in California right now.
❤️Bruno is very adorable ❤️
Welcome to Thailand🙏🏽💕
Wish you all the best to come💕
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Really appreciate it! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
พอจะทราบข่าวมาบ้างแต่ ไม่คิดว่าจะขนาดนี้ ยินดีต้อนรับนะคะ
There’s definitely a lot more that happens. This was just a few.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
We’re in the same boat. We live in California and just visited Thailand to research it as a place to retire in 7 years. We loved it and we felt much safer. Maybe we can speed up the retirement timeline if we can figure out health insurance. Can’t wait for that day.
😬 I can only imagine how tough it is now… I know, right!!?? In Thailand, you can definitely feel more at peace for sure. Hang in there!
You guys are truly cracking the code. Congrats on the move 🎉
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
I'd say, Buddhism plays a huge role when it comes to the vibe you experience in our country... Maybe getting to know our language as well as a glimpse of Buddhism might make you understand why all those reasons you mentioned in this clip make sense( you love it here,right? Hehe).
By the way, don't forget to come visit my hometown, Samutsongkram, where you will enjoy a cozy night by the floating market ,lemme know I'll be a local/friendly guide for both of you. Hehe. Take care❤
Thank you so very much! 🥰🫰❤️🙏
Really appreciate the offer! We’re going to hold you to it if we are able to visit 😉
I agree with you in everything. I have lived in California for 17 years and have seen things change in the negatively. There are a lot of homeless camp down on the road and make more problems, it is too bad. The food prices are so horrible, one Thai dish is around $15, even Mcdonald's charges for the ketchup. People are too crazy about politics etc.
I plan to go back to Chiang Mai soon, hopefully I can see you guys one day. Have a wonderful time and be safe in Thailand.
I know, right!!?? Homeless was/is just out of control. Omg! McDonalds charges for ketchup now!!?? What!? That’s crazy! Can’t blame you for wanting to go back. We have yet to visit Chiang Mai but it’s definitely on our go to list!
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Appreciate the love! ❤️❤️🫰🫰
Oh my gosh, my husband and I just retired and moved from SD Ca in June to travel around Thailand. We could have made this video as we share your sentiments exactly!! America has gone crazy. I was born in Cambodia, so nice to be back in SE Asia. Hope we can meet you guys someday!
Oh really!? 😅 Maybe you should! Very Nice! Thank you so very much! 🥰🫰❤️🙏. Appreciate the love! 🫰🫰❤️❤️
I'm glad Thailand makes you feel safer. I have an uncle there in San Diego, beautiful place! I will visit one day but I will never live there 🙏
Thank you so very much! 🥰🫰❤️🙏
Very Nice! SD is gorgeous!
Thank you for choosing my country. Thai people love you guys ! ❤
Absolutely our pleasure!
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Hey Caroline & Anthony, it's awesome to hear that you guys enjoy living in Thailand. But just to let you aware that in Thailand, we also have those similar situations (if only you can read Thai news. Oh yeah!) So just need to be careful and be cautious wherever you go, and don't let your guard down too much. And just a little bit to share, about a year ago, after about 35 years in the US, my wife and I also decided to move back to Thailand, our motherland, to be close with and to take care of our elders. We miss our friends and places in the US (we lived in a nice small university town, we loved it there) but anyway we know that it's the right decision for us to move back. We, so far, enjoy being here as well. Please keep doing what you do (your YT Vids), they are quite adorable and fun to watch. Hmm! I give it a 9.9999, hahaha just kidding, 10 for you guys :). And please continue having a wonderful time in your new home, Thailand.
We really appreciate the warning/heads up! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Very Nice and congrats! Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
😂😂😂 Thank you for your kindness! Really helps us to keep going ❤️❤️🫰🫰
Thai people are welcoming you
enjoy your lives in Thailand
100% Agree! Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏

Thank you for sharing, I also has friend in America. He said the state was that not deteriorated., but i think it might depending on the place you are living. Anyway, good luck and welcome to Thailand.
Absolutely our pleasure! Definitely depends where you live but a lot of Americans are struggling.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
I'm doing the same, now I'm in the process of selling my house and everything.
I'll stay in Bangkok for a while, then to Krabi province .
Very Nice! We hope everything goes smoothly and you can finally be in Thailand 😉
Welcome to Thailand. I must say that kindness and hospitality are indeed the highlights of Thai people. Crimes may occur, but they are usually minor and not that violent and Thailand has many regions. I would recommend The North for a slow life style of travel, ancient but charming and The South has beautiful seas and interesting underwater activities, though the prices might be slightly higher in tourist areas. I hope you will have a wonderful time in Thailand.
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Really appreciate the recommendations broken down for North vs South. Also, the heads up! 🙏
Welcome to Thailand. Hope you have enjoyable and happiness to everywhere 😄
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
I think you will also feel connected because of the Asian root as well.
Yes, definitely! 😃
It always delights me to know that people have discovered their true happiness. In Thailand we have a proverb that says “People inside want to leave. People outside want to enter". Many Thai people of the new generation want to move to America or the West. Thai people more than 30 years ago are very different from now. When social media has more influence on Thai society. They became more aggressive by hiding behind the internet. They are more mean to each other. It began to become violent in a way that we had never experienced before. Over the past 3-4 years, there has been a mass shooting that has happened once a year. There is a series of murders taking place. I understand that these are things that must happen as we move forward. Although the number is still small, we cannot predict the future. I understand that everything has a price to pay. When society develops in this direction, there must be trade-offs. Sorry if my expressions seem strange because I use a translation application. May you be happy where you choose. We always welcome you.😊🇹🇭
Thank you for sharing your expressions is more like it! Not a problem! Appreciate you taking the time to use a translation app to leave a comment. You’re so sweet! 🥰❤️🫰🙏

Welcome you both to Thailand. I decided to leave the US and came back to my home country because cost of living too. Even I get paid a lot in the US but after paying all the bills, I feel like I work hard to pay living expenses. Living in Thailand for me is heaven.. Staying with family. Everything is so convenience. Lots of money saving 😊
Thank you so very much! 🥰❤️🫰🙏
That’s exactly how we felt! 😅 So Happy for you! 😉

You should do a monthly budget vlog and tips how to settle down in Thailand. Also maybe different neighborhoods in Bangkok.
Will do! Thank you for the recommendation 🥰❤️🫰🙏
Our problem is… we don’t keep track of what we spend. It might be a good idea to do so… 🤤
