- Here's a few links for my favorite credit cards. I try to check the links often, but let me know if there is a problem. If they change the offer on the card, I may need to update the link. Full disclosure, I get a few airline miles for referring a new customer. You should get the same public offer at no additional cost. Thank you very much.

If you enjoy checking out Bangkok and other SE Asia spots, consider subscribing. I'll continue to make videos showing the streets in Bangkok and beyond. Thailand is amazing and a great place to visit, work or retire. I'll do my best to show you how to live affordably in SE Asia. Plus, enjoy some great side trips from Bangkok.
We have a condo there at IDEO2 on Sanphawut road. You were almost there, you just need to keep walking through the "neighborhood" and then turn left.
I liked it up there. Good to see something other than lover Sukhumvit. Bangkok has so much to offer. Thanks for watching
When I was young, 60+ years ago, Vitamilk was the best selling soy milk in Thailand with no competition in sight. For the last 40 years Lactasoy has become close No.2. Vitamilk was originally available in glass bottle and still do while Lactasoy since its inception comes in as UHT carton package. It is hard to see Vitamilk in glass bottle now but still available.
Wow. Thanks for that info. I appreciate you watching. Joe
Nice. Very interesting spot you wandered into. Have a great one.
Thanks. I agree, it's a nice area to explore
Terrific!
Thanks for watching. I appreciate that
At 08:38...Last November 2023, I rented an Airbnb at the Ideo Mobi Sukhumvit Eastgate condominium complex! It is an ultra-modern complex with a huge lap pool and a very nice fitness center. It's adjacent to the Bang Na BTS station and it takes about 20 minutes to get to the Asok BTS station at Terminal 21. I paid only $300 USD for one month for a studio condo with a washing machine in the unit. Down the street is the Tongsai Night Market where I went frequently to buy my inexpensive dinners.
That sounds like a great deal. Bang Na, Udom Suk, and Bearing are the new hotspots for affordable condos.
@@EagerExpatLooking forward to checking out your house rental search. Always wondered how much it would cost near Bangkok
@@user-gz2yu6zs8z Thanks for watching
❤❤❤
I appreciate the comment
I have always lived in the other direction of Sukhumvit line around Victory monument, I am grateful for your videos, they make me stop thinking about moving too far out.
The areas I think suit me besides Victory monument are probably Phaya Thai and Ari
That's great. I've did videos on all those areas. I love Saxaphone Pub
How's the air quality been lately? I'll be in Bangkok on the 15th. Hope to catch up with you at some point. Definitely will see you at the birthday party on the 22nd.
The air isn't great lately. Burning season has started. That's never a great thing. I'm looking out the window on the 26th floor. I'd say it's 20% less view than when it's clear.
Same here I don't normally go out till 9pm or even later and stay out late and get up at lunchtime when I'm on holiday obviously and that's how I roll I couldn't be fucked with getting up at 6am unless it's for a pee lol
Yes, I'm not much of a morning guy. If I am up at 6am, i usually go back to sleep in the afternoon. But, even if I just stay at home, I'm usually up until 200 or 300 am. Sometimes, I'm up all night
Hey Joe !!!!
I liked seeing this random area
It’s interesting
I have the train map here
So I can see exactly where u got off the train
Going out that bit further…… mixes it up a bit
Interesting 👌👌👌👌👌😎
I just love ur vids
You
&
Side Life Trip my absolute favourites. 🇹🇭 😃
I appreciate that. Yes, it's fun to go explore. More videos to come.
Good morning Nice walk. Semper Fi
Thanks for checking in. Semper Fi
Thanks for covering this area, Joe. Our son has been accepted into Patana International school which is a 5 min drive from Bang Na so this was interesting to see. By the way, it's Matt (Cool Cartons account previously). Thought I should subscribe with a personal channel instead of business :-)
Hey Matt, that's great to hear. I don't know much about the area, but it's becoming very popular. I also did a Bearing and Udom Suk video a few months ago.
@@EagerExpat We’ll be in Soi 39 as of July so will catch you at Stella’s at some point. I had a couple of beers 🍺 there and a game of darts 🎯 with the girls last month. Missing the Thai friendliness already! I’ll have to live vicariously through your channel. I’ll be documenting our journey over here so stay tuned 😊
@@SiamFam That sounds like a plan
Probably should factor in $75 USD for BTS monthly transport if you’re going to live down that way.
I would say I paid way more than that living in On Nut. But, I went out often. Most people meet up in the Nana, Asoke, Phrom Phong area. I can walk or take a moto-bike these days. Living in Phrom Phong it was many $10rt cab rides. Even the BTS is a few dollars roundtrip. And it stops running at 12:15 am. Other folks move out really far. Maybe past Bearing. That's great, but not only does it cost, but you have a longer train ride each time you go out. It's all about how much you go out.
@@EagerExpat excellent points. Probably better off rolling up your would be transportation costs into something more centrally located.
@@Marinate305 Ya I've said over and over the farther out you get, you might save $200 in rent, but you have to travel 20 minutes to a grocery store or movies. Plus, the extra expense of cabs and train fares. That $200 savings turns into a $100 or $50 savings. I'm not sure that's worth taking a 20 minute train ride, in my case, twice a day. Maybe if you stay home, shop once a week and go meet friends on Saturday night. Myself, I'm out exploring the city and filming every day. Then I go home and relax and head out to eat and meet friends for music or drinks most every night. All of which is in Central Bangkok. Living 10 train stops away, doesn't work for me
@@EagerExpat great point too Joe. Hang out a couple of nights until 12:16 and your 47 baht BTS ride turns into a $300-$500 baht cab ride down to Bearing. Couple of those a month and you’d be questioning yourself why you weren’t Phrom Phong neighbors. 😂
@@Marinate305 This is true. You can take the 12b bus. But, that's a long ride and often times you stand
