UPDATE: Thanks for all the messages of concern and my apologies for not looking in recently. Just been taking a break and also travelling. Will try to post a new vid soon. Be well, STL

The appreciation of a vlogger can be measured by the number of comments one receives from viewers wondering if everything is ok after a longer than usual absence.
Over a month without an STL VLOG, I’m having withdrawal symptoms 😎🏴 hope your enjoying your break Ben. 🏝️
Longtime no see. Are you OK.
Hi STL, Hoping you are well and everything is ok. REALLY missing your vids and hoping you will be back SOON 😀
We are missing you STL, making us wait for a month for a new video... hopefully you are enjoying travelling too much to edit a video
You did it again my friend. Your videos do not get more high quality than this. You showcase Thailand so eloquently.
You got that right! 😁👍
Kop Khun Maak Krup! Keep STL in front and center!
I do like the way you put the maps up , 🙏👍
Patiently waiting for your next vid STL, well...kinda patiently lol. Hope you're safe and all is well bud.
I stayed 2 weeks in Khanom in March. One week in Vish Hotel & second week in Sea Breeze House on Naiplao Beach (you covered them 12/18 months ago!). Barely any farangs at the time bar some intrepid continental Europeans. And as your drone shots showed beaches entirely deserted. Well worth it & not yet destroyed by overtourism like other previously fantastic places in Southern Thailand.
"Continental europeans"...Good point. You can not imagine how many people I met in England who say the UK is not Europe...
I was just thinking 10 minutes ago I would like to see a new video from your channel.. that would make my night 🎉
Hello Friend. Miss you and youre vids. Wishing you wellness and prosperity. Love from Texas.
STL!!! Withdrawal symptoms, hope ur ok... If taking a break, enjoy, if something bad, I hope it gets better.
I proposed to my fiancé during a sunrise on Khanom beach. Beautiful place and feels like thailand from 20 years ago.
Wonderful, congrats!
@@SideTripLife Great video. If i can recommend a nice place - Follow the beach road south towards Sichon and there's a cafe called Sea Circle Cafe. Really nice food and quiet beach if you get a chance to check it out!
Yep, great spot, stopped by there and more, vid upcoming
STL my favorite UA-camr has disappeared I hope you're okay I have been watching you for a long time and I hope I get to continue to watch more of your videos
STL MIA ... No vids for awhile. Too busy drinking Leos (-: No worries, I love watching all your previous vids countless times. I think I account for about One Million of Your views (-:
Ah, I see you havent' started making 2hr videos yet. A shame, but this will do! Lol. Hope you're well sir.
Thanks. I'm both amazed and grateful a few watch even 30 mins (esp without nodding off;)
@SideTripLife hello again from a fellow Canadian viewer- we love how relaxing, informative, and enjoyable your videos are! 30 minutes and longer are always the favourites. You make the perfect tour guide also! Thank you for sharing the experience & the calm edits- my family always looks out for your latest videos. Cheers & safe travels my friend
I've been to Khanom countless times ;) But there's still so many amazing places to discover around there! Thanks for a lovely video! The maps are a great touch by the way!
your tips are pure gold for me....thank you soooooo much 🤗
UA-cam algorithm brought your video to me, what a gift.
Thanks for the nice movie,you are by far the best for making movies ,and giving very good information about Thailand. 😇🙏
Hi STL its been a bit since your last video. Hope all is well with you !
Your videos are amazing don't stop been traveling to Thailand over 15 years had know idea what I was missing thank you will be in Thailand soon and will definitely
See and visit these beautiful parts of Thailand less traveled
I'm with you STL there's nothing better than being away from people to be able to enjoy the atmosphere of a place. This is an area I never got to see funny nobody even mentioned it and it is a real secret hidden gem. Thanks for highlighting it my friend. Bushyboy Oz
Love your clips and love Thailand, great detail and prices, keep up the great work, always looking forward to your next upload
Great side trip - very much in keeping with the name of the channel.
Im so excited about this Khanom series. I fell in love with Khanom the last time you went. I was blown away by the chill vibe and endless empty beaches. Im praying you make these videos longer with endless sidetrips throughout. Love your content and thanks for all the work you put in
Great Video ! Exploring Thailand will be a #1 priority once I am retired. These videos are great and really show folks that Thailand is a safe place and people are VERY welcoming ! :)
without doubt the best video's about Thailand, so interesting accompanying you on your travels, thanks!! Also the song playing when you went into Yataka resort 28:00 made my jaw drop, one of my favourite by a young artist who is sadly no longer with us, and not that well known i think. Anybody else in the comments catch it?
Another great video! When’s the next one????
Merci beaucoup !!!
Et vous aussi mon ami:) Btw any looking in, this is from Miss Nadine, humble serpent slayer and innkeeper at lovely Bamboo Resort Khanom. To contact her, or to enquire about rooms, or Khanom info, pls click the link in the pinned comment above.
The most positive farang in Thailand. Love this channel.
You said it STL, "just effin' wow"! Not surprised...but always amazed at what you are able to bring to life w/ a camera, drone, and maps. All of the areas you've shown here look like such fun to explore and the Khanom area is a real beauty! I cannot wait to see what else you have in store for us.
Haven’t seen anything from you for a bit. Hope all is ok!
Been to Koh Samui visiting but didn't know those other beaches were there. Thanks for the new updates of the beaches, great video.
I stayed in Khanom and Prachuap Khiri Khan last year after watching your vids. Was definitely not disappointed, I hope to do the same this year. Thanks again 😀
Another short video, this one could've went for hours and I would watch it. Thank you once again for the short great video lol.
Thanks! Please stop making me want to go to Thailand !! LOL 555 Thank you STL ,, enjoy ....
Cheers Karl
Great videos when you travel around, because i have stayed in Hua Hin many times, but more down to south looks nice, keep up the great job! 😊😊
Thanks made a crappy day better. Always enjoy your videos. One of the few creators the longer videos don't bother me at all.
OMG- my husband and I were beginning to wonder about what happened to you! So glad to see you back & love this awesome video❤❤❤ Thanks for sharing this vlog & so dying to see your next one 😊
Thank you for showing ne this private spot. I away from homeland since childhoid.. now I'm a tourist in my own Homeland. I can't wait to vone back for my final golden years.. thank you for respectful video of my country. ❤
As always, another great video !
Love watching your video's, very educational!!..Keep them coming!
Great concept, man! Would love to see more places like these :)
Stay tuned, more and even better to come....
@@SideTripLife Lucky us!
@@SideTripLife Are there also condos in these small hidden areas?
Wow wouldn’t even know this place existed
Love these places
Phenomenal as always thank you STL
"Just wow!" Took the words right out of my mouth. Only about 3 more years and I hope to be standing on one of those beaches. I'll buy you a drink if we run into each other! Thanks for another fantastic video.
Thank again for another great video showing off the beaten path resorts!
Hope to visit sometime soon!
Bye for now, take care!
Peter
Great video, as always. Thanks for sharing the beauty of Thailand and its people.
Most enjoyable STL. Thank you 🙏🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
We stayed at Bamboo in August. Just after you were there Nadine had to go into hospital. Her son contacted us to see if we wanted to cancel as they might close. She recovered so they stayed open but she was not up for seeing visitors when we were there. Going back in April.
Thank you both. I've stayed in touch with Nadine's progress via a friend and I hope she continues to get back on the road to health. I too will be returning soon and look forward to seeing Nadine.
Another amazing video 😊
good evening/ good morning as you are 10 hours ahead of me. I've been following your channel for quite some time, and I like the way you put up the things. This would be the place for me, as I live in São Paulo Brazil with too many people. I would love to spend a few weeks in an isolated place like this, except for its locals. Excellent tip. Keep up the good job. Best wishes from Brazil
Love love love these vlogs. I really appreciate the time & effort you put into these. You’re helping me plan for a young retirement.
Absolutely breathtaking!
Our Thai friend took us to Khanom from Ao Nang for a day tour , stunning place . We also visited Nan Hin Tha Ha which was also beautiful 😍
Great vid STL, again I think the rainy season is the best time to visit all those great beaches without the crowds. Just heading back north after visiting Cha Am area. Thanks for posting 🙃
Love this vlog! I've been watching all your vlogs and love them all! Thank you for all your work and hope to see another one soon!❤
Another great video cheers just love your videos.🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺👏👍
Your videos are my favorite for SE Asia. 🎖️
wow thanks!
I have missed seeing your videos of Thailand it was so nice to view this such a good start to my morning ❤❤
We need to keep this area of Thailand a secret 😅
Lovely video as always
Very useful, I'm headed that way in about a week finally ending up in Krabi.
that was a quick half hour! watched in one sitting. thanks, as always!
About 1.5 years back we were at the ferry intending to go to Koh Sami but after a fierce storm the ferries refused to travel. We stayed in the hotel and eat at the next door beach cafe. The hotel was amazing. The beach cafe food was always delicious. We stayed for two days and what could have been a big disappointment during our southern Thailand holiday turned out to be a highlight. The hotel and restaurant could not have done more for us. If you are looking to chill this is a great place.
Side trip life…what you vlog and most don’t understand is the farther away you get from tourist “hot zones” in Thailand the better life is… 😁
good stuff as always stl. always looking forward to your next video
Agree, the less tourists the better. I always make to the end of your vids and glad I did. Beach Reggae festival up next.....Looking forward to it! 😁
Very cool as always. Will be there in a few weeks will check out Khanom Beach and PKK. Thank you for the guided tour !
Awesome 👏
Great prices and nice hotels
Thank you for all of your timely and informative posts. We've been to many of the places you have made video's at and appreciate the good info you provide. My wife and I will be returning to Thailand on 09-05-2024, Ill be there 5 weeks, she will stay for 8 weeks. We may use some of the hotels you have shown. Thank you again.
I do love Khanom! Rather expensive by Thai standards though. Thanks for showing us.
love the video. I really like the uncrowded places!
Waiting from Indo for the side trip
Hope all is well.
John
Thanks for another great video! What a little gem of a place❤I’m hoping to find something similar up north of Phuket on the Andaman Sea. I’ll keep watching your videos til I retire there. Much love from Japan ❤❤
Yotaka resort looks pretty nice wow. I've never been to this part of Thailand before. You are giving me ideas for next trip!
Man love watching your videos cause I will be moving to Thailand soon and can’t wait to see all of Thailand
I'm with you on the "off season,/crowdless beaches. I used to love going to places like English Bay or Canada Place to watch the fireworks, or going to Playland or the PNE, all the super busy and loud, over crowded places, but that passion died fast and now I can't stand crowds or noisy/load places. Maybe it's old age catching up to me. LMFAO CHEERS buddy. Keep safe and stay healthy. 🙂👍
Great timing, we are heading back to Khamon at the end of July (after going there last Aug) and then taking the car ferry to Koh Samui and then onto Koh Phangan. Love your video's, hopefully you put another video up before we get there.
Ditto regarding all concerned comments below. Really missing your videos!! Hope you are ok - and all is well?🌼
Wow it is so much beautiful there! One reason more to left Samui.
Love it! Looks great!
We were in Samui back in February, big mistake😬🤪high season, Chinese new year and in a weekend…….great video as always STL!
Moving to thailand in September. Counting down the days.
Great video as always SLT 😎👍 .. great to see what’s out there that 99% of us typically pass by 😎👍
Cheers Simo!
Hay Bent from Kitimat me and the wife want to know where you are and why we havent heard from you in a long time getting tiered of waiting. Remember we watch you and if you went to see famly at home just update hope your having a hoot cant wait to hear from you again
Wow love this places wouldn’t even know these places existed
Just checked last night to see if I missed a video. I’m following your footsteps in Kuta, Lombok right now (some of the same beaches today) and though I am following, don’t worry, I’m not stalking you, just following the video trail you blazed.
Loved Kuta Lombok (Kuta Bali not so much;)
Kuta Bali: ua-cam.com/video/wSef3fCBTwc/v-deo.html
Kuta Lombok: ua-cam.com/video/-u2C0ZjfKOM/v-deo.html
Even better: ua-cam.com/video/qkUuEPSbGjU/v-deo.html
Will be back in Indo soon for more, enjoy
Was in Labuan Bajo before Lombok and really enjoyed it; you should check it out.
Forgot to mention, ice cream man on scooter still trucking along on the beach.
Ice cream guy rocks!
Please put another video up before we arrive in Khanom this week 🙏🏻
Just been on a vacay, will post again next week
Great as always!
Where is side trip
We miss you brother -
John .
Just taking a vacay, will post new vids next week
Returning To Thailand this coming February. Koh Samui, Phangan & Koh Tao. We love your videos ❤
That was the exact trip I did last year. Very fun and chill.
Thanks for the vids-love em.
I stayed in that same Bungalow you're in last year and the landlady is pretty cool.
Missing your vids bro, whatever you're doing i hope you're well. I need a $15 waterside bungalow to dream over 😂😂
Great video! I'm looking to make my way down south to Phang Nga and Krabi to check out the coastal areas, away from the beaten paths, on the Andaman Sea. Surat Thani and Nakhon Si Thammarat coastal areas on the gulf side also have nice beaches!
Hey !! We love your Thailand’s video 🇹🇭😃🙏😍. We moved to Koh Phangan last year, and definitely your UA-cam channel helped us a lot with that decision to come here . Are you still in Koh Phangan ?
Love your vids. Getting close to retirement.
Thx Chris, I've a feeling you're going to enjoy retirement ;)
Great video......
👏👏👏Great vid!
