    Lived here a year and a half and I get tons of great tips from Rides 4 Kickz videos. I somtimes do laundry in the Otteri on Soi Buakhao but the food vendors in front now exhaust all their charcoal cooking smoke right into the laundermat. I'll try the Orange place you mentioned. Lucas you are a gentleman and a wealth of helpful information. Thanks !! Regards from Mal

    From experience I can speak highly of Farang Thai Visa. They were a great help in applying for my Retirement Visa. Angie's Taxi service is dependable, and I use them not only for myself but for friends who visit here. I trust her service to pick them up which is important when they are making their first visits here. And I have had a shirt tailored by Lucky and I will have more done in the future with him.

    I also have used Angie for many years for transport from the airport, and Pattaya to Bangkok. Never any problems. Make sure to give them a nice tip.

      Great idea ... a list of all the organizations, associations, clubs, etc (American Legion, VFW, Moose, Elk, Kiwanis, Shriners, Odd Fellows, Eagles, Owls, Scottish Clans, Druids, etc) in the Pattaya area that cater to Western Farangs.

  • @MrEye4get
    @MrEye4get 3 місяці тому

    With all the loud motorcycles and smoking pickups, one has to wonder if the inspections are enforced. Many Thai will upgrade their headlights without aiming them and blind oncoming traffic. Never assume other drivers have anything more than the required minimum instance. Also, read the fine print of any insurance policy. You will be surprised by the high deductibles and vehicle replacement limits. Even if the policy states a coverage cap, they will never pay it! If repairs exceed 70% of the maximum coverage amount, they will total the vehicle, leaving you to payoff the difference.

Any recommendations on Apartment buildings to stay through airbnb. I have seen THE EDGE, THE BASE which all look very good but everything seems to be 35-40 sq meters. Any other recommendations. Im going to book soon. Just a little wary about staying in the hotel rooms with all my stuff and someone coming in while im gone. I dont need a missing laptop etc etc. also ,,im a single guy and i like the places i see in JOMTIEN but want to be where the actions is. Thanks

    Good vid... I must say the opening of laundry mat/machine places in the last 1-2 yrs has been prolific! and very welcome... They are everywhere now... I also recently used AA insurance broker for medical insurance, very helpful... *knock on wood* hopefully never have to use it... but better safe than sorry (esp if immigration changes the ret visa req to require it)... Don't really use a broker for Visa services... (but that will change if the dreaded TAX requirements start being enforced).... Speaking of which... Would like to see some *trusted* tax account places/services if that comes to pass... Cheers...

    Top centre optical is fantastic, and I visited from Lat Krabang and I tried to get a taxi there from Pattaya bus station and no driver knew the address, so I phoned him, and he came and picked me up, I chose and got sorted with new frame and lenses then he took me back to bus station, and he did the same when I collected my order one week later. That is what I call service. Forgot to say I got coffee and cakes whilst there also.

    Oyo has very volatile prices. Sometimes it is $11 a night and sometimes $21. It is more like a warehouse than a hotel, they have many, many packages all over.
