I had to move out of my house for few days. The last minute decision brought me to some great experience just 40 min away from Chiangmai! I will show you how I found places to live without Airbnb or booking. Like in the old times)))
What I like and don’t like about living in Chiangmai?!
Переглядів 3,9 тис.21 день тому
I’m telling about what I like and don’t like about my life in Chiangmai! I’m sure I haven’t learnt everything yet and probably will take me many years to say that I understand Thai mentality. Hope it will be quicker, Thai and Kazakh culture are the same in a lot of things.
The worst purchase you’ll ever make??

    Interesting to get an attractive, intelligent older woman's experience of Chiang Mai. As a repeat visitor to the area I agree with many of your observations. Traffic is a nightmare and definitely not great city for walking around especially crossing the streets, it needs more overpass walkways because cars don't stop at the crosswalks.

    Lady, your attitude isnt great. You think a 60 yr old guy looking at you is "disgusting", but he could get a 22 yr old easily, so calm yourself. You're getting a bit older so maybe be grateful. Also, those staring white guys are likely European. Its common that people from various parts of Europe "stare" a lot more than you might be used to. (I lived in Europe for years). Has nothing to do with them thinking you're "working". 😅

    • @eastowest

      “Its common that people from various parts of Europe ‘stare’ a lot … has nothing to do with them thinking you're ‘working’.” I’ve been living in Asia for 34 years now, nearly 2 in Thailand, and every expat I know could tell you countless stories about their Asian wives or girlfriends being hit on by white sex tourists. You’re delusional if you think that isn’t so. And if you think that a 60-year-old guy isn’t disgusting because he could get a 22-year-old, you’re the one with an attitude problem.

      Not all, not everyone of course but there is still a significant proportion of Western male tourists in Thailand who are there expressly for paid sex. This proportion is significantly higher than those in Singapore or Malaysia, for comparison to another SEA country. These people aren't the most refined or respectul, as you'd expect.

      @@jascforfun7576 I agree to a point, but would you also say some Thais have something to do with this too? If you walk past bars in certain areas in any touristy town or city, even during the day, you'll have Thai women grabbing at males genitals as a way to try and stop them from walking past, or just latch on to the guy until they give in, honestly makes me cringe. Don't really think their actions is either refined or respectful and doesn't happen in places like beer street in Hanoi, and I'm sure not in Singapore or Malaysia (although I haven't been there). I guess my point is, it takes two to tango. But there is a horrible stigma attached to Thailand, which is such a shame

      I started with an expensive electric grinder (Niche) only to realize that a cheaper hand grinder achieves better results (Commandante) especially with filter. Espresso was a slightly different story as the adjustment of the grinds was not fine enough. I now also have a Kingrinder which is even better with adjustment, results are equally good and it is less that half the price of the Commandante. USD 100 for the top model.So that would be my recommendation.

      Thank you for your comment ❤️ For me it’s not weird) I’m from Kazakhstan, I was born in the USSR and raised in an independent Kazakhstan. We have over 100 nations living together in peace. I moved out of Kazakhstan when I was 33, about 4,5 years ago. I live now kind of between the two worlds the western and Asian. But I’m Asian myself)) it’s just different Asians. For me everything is interesting. Chiangmai is a very touristic city and there are a lot of Asians, mainly Chinese. We just discussing here the fact that the time the video was taken there were more Chinese than white. And only a person from the western country would notice and think it’s weird that’s what I also learnt for the last few years. Some Europeans or once colonized people think it’s all about them. It’s not) sometimes it’s just one girl who is very curious about what’s going on around her, who are the people that live next to her and what are the other cultures that surround her. As a person who grew up in a multicultural society, of a once colonized nation, I think everything that’s going on with race in Europe is stupid. It became kind of a weapon and a trend. Don’t complicate it:)
