The teppanyaki looked amazing! Definitely need to try it out one day. Nice video guys! (loved the intro)
Thanks you guys :) Glad we didn't leave early that day and miss the planes!
There is a wonderful shop on the street by the clock tower. Older gentleman has a great collection of antique items and a huge collection of Historical photos.This and the Phuket town viewpoint are unusual and must see!
It was so nice seeing you guys in Bangkok a couple months ago! Every time I watch your guys videos it feels like I'm back in Thailand, makes me miss it ! Thanks for the great content and hope to bump into you guys in the future again!
Thanks Tommy, hope to see you in Thailand someday!
I love every single video that you both put out. This is a very beautiful video from Flora and Note. The video quality and sound are so good.
Thank you Dominic, we also love every single comment you leave for us :)
Thanks for showing us Phuket! That hotel looks amazing 🤩
Congrats on 30K! Another milestone in the books! Phuket... been a couple years for me to be there but I remember the amount of fun we had together!
Thanks Patpat! It was so much fun last time :) Can't wait for you to come visit again!
Just 💖 you two…you both have a warm, fuzzy & fun aura about you, I absolutely love watching your vids…keep em coming 💖
I ‘ve been there more than 15 years ago and never went back again. It must change a lot I believe. Nice to see you again and enjoy every vlog you made. Enjoy your wonderful lives together. Keep up the good work! Cheerss..!
Thanks JNK! Must give it a visit next time :)
Great video! Great energy- can feel the joy and fun and happiness! Hope to get back to Thailand soon! Enjoy your travels!
Hope you can come back to soon!
We love Phuket, used to go every year . Wonderful, friendly locals and great food. We preferred the beach at Karon where our boys spent a lot of time. Would love to go again.
Hiya Flora and Note, thank you for the tour around. Lovely place to stay. Beautiful views. Great drone footage. Nice hike. You two are so funny. Beautiful viewpoint. Your dinner looks amazing. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week. 🤗
Phuket is so big we have to go back. Thanks for watching Nicky 😊
Thanks guys great video. We are actually staying at the Hyatt from the 14th and so looking forward to our return trip to Thailand! 2 years is too long. And it’s my birthday treat! Look forward to more videos of the Hyatt and Kamala. 🙏🤞
Point to note: You can't swim @the beach @all in front of Hyatt. It's all rocks, pebbles n stones.
So cool to see you in Phuket - Old town is magic - teppanyaki is so amazing everything done in front of you - Hyatt always super classy - great video - thanks as always 😎👌👍🙏
Thanks ANT! We loved all the food choices in Phuket - and we ate A LOT of it off camera haha
Thank you for taking us around the Phuket Old Town ♥️
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
loved the chemistry between you two! beautiful phuket as always.
Thanks so much for watching!
An brilliant video guys. Phuket Old Town is a great place, i spent hours walking around the streets looking at the architecture, i also love the Thalang Road night market which is on every Sunday from 4pm. Nice job on completing that hike. The Teppanyaki looked delicious. Thank you. 🙏👍😀
We missed out on the Sunday market this time but we've seen our friends go and it looks super busy and fun! We do love the Old Town and will probably stay there next time :)
Nice to see you doing more and more adventures after being stuck on Samui for so long. Enjoy!
Nice to get out every now and then 😊 Koh Samui is still the best tho
Thanks for another interesting episode!
Thanks Steve!! 💕🙏🏻
Whenever I get the chance to go back to Phuket, a trip to the old town is a MUST! Those snacks and titbits at Ah Tak Kae are the classics, especially the egg cookies. I normally would buy quite a lot and enjoy them by dunking them in milk 🤣. I don't know why, though might seem weird to many, but that is just how I like them, ever since I was a little kid.
Kamala is indeed the more relaxing part of Phuket. So is Surin. Never quite like the hustle and bustle of Patong. Try researching on Ayara Hilltops at Surin and Ayara Kamala. Stayed in both resorts before and they were simply marvelous.
As always, great vlog and stay safe you two! Sawatdeekrup!
Thanks for the recommendations! I wish i saved a few eggs to dunk in milk or coffee too. Those were the best (out of the 4!).
Wow you guys really make it to Phuket!!! I love you guys so much, this vlog really make my day. I really like the snack that Note picked up at 2:19, i hope you guys like it too. I’m really looking forward to the next vlog.❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Dao! My favourite was the egg cookie and Note’s was those chewy sesame balls 😄
Thanks ❤️😍👍
Of course Note would like the cheese ball chef’s humour. Every time he laughs at something my sense of humour agrees with him hahaha. Such a Tool. I had my eyes open in Koh Samui but didn’t get the chance to spot you guys. Thanks for the content….always a smile to be had.
😂😂😂 glad you share the same sense of humour! Hope you enjoyed Samui 💕
I’ve lived in Thailand but have never been to the South. Next time for sure. Thanks for the tour of Old Town Phuket. Loved it 😊
There's so much to see and do in the South, and it's not all just beaches and island :)
@@FloraandNote can't wait 🙂
I'm drooling!
Stay safe in HK 🙏🏻💕
Yes 👍, ice cream 🍦 definitely the special treat 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤. The Hotel is heaven on Earth, beautiful, Um ! oh ! Ocean views are amazing. I think your dad must be jealous now.
He's jealous of the view but not of the heat 🔥 It is sooo hot and humid in Phuket right now! Need ice cream every day 🤔
Love that teppanyaki show another amazing video.
It was so good 😋
Que linda pareja, bonito el vídeo y el hotel wauuu, y Note me encanta😍
Those tidbits n chinese cookies r very tasty..u love 💕 it.
you are both such a beautiful couple its a pleasure to follow your blogs thank u for your time and effort look forward to visiting some of the places youve visited in thailand lee..xx
Thank you Lee, hope you’ll enjoy the places we recommend! 👍😄
Such a perfect day that there aren't any bloopers lol
I really like the hiking part! seems like an adventure there!
We included the funny parts in the video this time 😊
Hi...beautiful and clean city. so peaceful..thank You both for sharing..good editing tooo..hyatt property is very niceeee.. be safe xo
THAIVETRO is interesting and chefs’ dream to invent those unique flavors!
8:55 JAW DROPPING. 15:50 I love Teppanyaki. And the mysterious message is THE MOST AMAZING IDEA EVER!!! 👍👏👏👏
I still wonder what Tom yum goong ice cream would taste like. We need to go back 😅
We stayed in the patong area when we visited and it was pretty overwhelming 😂 I think we would stay near Phuket town next time. It’s so beautiful. Also.. Tom yum icecream!? That’s slightly terrifying haha. We are adding that place to our list next time we go. Amazing video as always you two! Loved it 🤗
Thanks Chase and Shelbs! Tom yum ice cream + brown rice ice cream might make for a good meal 😂
I was in Phuket the past week and thanks to your recommendation, I got to try the delicious pastries from Ah Tak Kae! ❤
We're so happy to hear that! Hope you had a great trip :)
Thank you so much for great VdO and honest reviews! We are going to Phuket in August 2023 will be staying at Hyatt Regency Phuket. Your feedback really helps reassure my decision. Thank you!
Enjoy your time in Phuket! Hopefully the weather is nice so you can try out the snorkeling in front of the hotel :)
Honestly I expected you guys to have more subscribers. I love the vlog style and everything. Keep it up besties
Thank you so much! Hope more people will discover our channel soon 🥰🙏🏻
Thanks you for Showing us your Video! Amazing 👍♥️⚘
Thanks for watching, Kitty! 🥰🙏🏻
Liked the old town introduction. I wasn’t aware of it. I will visit. The Hyatt also looks worth a visit! Thanks 🙏
We love Phuket old town. Could easily live there 😊
Very cool 🤩
Thank you 😎
Wow! The teppanyaki is delicious & yummy 😋
One of the best!
I love you, you are a beautiful couple and your stories are very easy to fall in love with in the places you've been, miss so much the Thailand
from Jpn
Thank you AK, you're so sweet!
god bless your day for your family Flora
Thank you 🙏
so glad I've found your channel! I got back from Phuket a couple of weeks ago
Welcome to the channel 🤗 Did you like Phuket?
@@FloraandNote I loved it and can’t wait to come back!
The snacks are so good and so cheap 👍
You guys are such troopers taking that hike and vlogging in the unbearable heat/humidity. Great view! Curious what type of shirt/pants your tour guide was wearing. It must be designed to keep him cool somehow.
If someone asks you to smell their finger, don't. 😂
Hahaha good advice!
I love this episode ! So much fun hiking and eating Teppanyaki! But something was missing, where was the lunch after the hike ? Hahaha, stay safe.
We skipped lunch. Took a nap after that long hike 😅
Go further up from kamala Beach to surin Beach...this beach had a history form the Thai King...u will find it at the end of surin Beach along a narrow n winding tracks. There r a few written history.
You always have interesting facts to share 👍 you know Thailand way better than us haha
@@FloraandNote My misses happened to be a tour guide b4 all the internet time...she is born in Thailand now is in Phuket...
Sawadee Welcome to Phuket
Hi FloTe! (Flora & Note :P), been watching your videos here and there and have just subscribed upon realizing I haven't! Compelled to comment again because the hostel at 3:13 of that "residential alley" that you walked into in Phuket Town is special to me! I was staying in that hostel (it's in your shot) behind Dibuk Restaurant in August 2021 as part of Phuket Sandbox xD So Dibuk Road to Thaivetro place was my daily walkabout area xD What a memory. I'm now back in Indonesia. But yes really looking forward to visit Thailand and Phuket again! Thanks for all your uploads!
Hope you’ll come back for a visit soon!
Wauuuu, qué hotel más hermoso, saludos desde mi país CHILE 🇨🇱🌶️
Beautiful Phuket old town , I saw an old building, one told Dr. 1922 (2465) , Which is exactly 100 years old this year. 🤗😉👍
Wonder what it was like back then
You guys always have such great energy, love watching your videos 🙏💖 Stay at the Hyatt? SURE! That would be awesome...but WAY out of our budget 🤣🤣 Old town on the other hand looks just our style. All the best guys! Kattie & Chris 🙏🙏
We also stayed at BluMonkey in Old Town and it was lovely and had the perfect location. The BluMonkey boutique is better than BluMonkey Hub though. Check it out for next time :)
@@FloraandNote Thanks so much! We will do that for sure. After many delays from things beyond our control (which is a pretty much everything 🤣🤣) we are finally coming back to Thailand in July! 😊😊💖💖
Yayy! 🙌🏻
you guys are lovely couples
Thank you Sunnie 😊
Wow! with 2passport1dream
Hahaha......when Nate finger reach for the rubber I was just waiting what his reaction be???.....They stink like crazy. I can take you to a rubber plantation when you get here....hahaha. Phuket has change so much....I could hardly recognize it. Have ton of fun during your stay in Phuket.
Hahahah we didn’t realize it was that stinky. Never again 😂
Enjoy your self, I will come in may month ,,
Amazing!! 🤩👍
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support 🙏🏻☺️
Hullo from Wellington New Zealand!! 😃
😂😂😟😭 very funny part was the "smelly fingers"
We are enjoying all the video contents. We cannot wait to see Phuket🙏😍
If you get a chance to see a rubber tree in Thailand, promise us you’ll touch it and smell it 😆
@@FloraandNote 😂😂😂 I will dare my BF to do it.
Such a nice quality picture ! I guess, it's due to you Canon gear..?
but it seems that the M50 is limited by the frame per second ( Canon France specifications are 4K - 3840 × 2160 23,98/25 fps)...
And your great capture with a good director, is at 4k/60fps....At 4'30" we can see that you use a mobile phone too
Looks for one of the famous porky rice shop...that is very popular in Phuket town.its a corner shop at a traffic junction
There’s so much good food in the Old Town! We ate at a couple places and loved it - didn’t film it tho 😂 too busy eating
@@FloraandNote that porky soup rice shop is the only one in Phuket.. cannot remember the name but very famous... line up to get a table ... sometimes shared also...u should try.. it's in Phuket Town.
We will have to go back!
Very informative video!! Loved it! Can i just ask how did you manage to secure a guide for the hike? :-)
The guide works at the hotel we were staying in 😊
What is the gratuity (tip) when room is comp'd? Double? Triple?
Hi Flora and Note, the viewpoint and hike looks amazing! how would you rate the level of the hike and is a guide compulsory or hiking solo is allowed?
It’s not too difficult, just steep in the beginning. But it’s not a popular hike so maybe best not to do it solo in case you need help. We did spot a snake!
My wife, I and 6 month yr old will be in Koh Samui next Jan/Feb 2023. Be nuts if we saw you filming. Love this channel.
Is Note (“the tank”) adopted btw?
Awesome video. Once again. Of course ;D
We still might be here haha Thaiiland is a hard country to leave 😂 That's a hard question to answer.. he is semi-adopted? We'll try to explain it in a vlog later on.
@@FloraandNote that’s awesome! Was just curious, as I’m adopted myself - originally from Bangkok, orphan until 2 ..then super luckily, adopted out to a wonderful (fair skinned, blue eyed) Aussie couple back in 91’ ..now Mum and Dad. :D
Needless to say you and Note are the coolest. And having Note’s Dad exploring with you recently, was just awesome to watch! Love the content! ☺️🙃
Aww that’s such a happy story! Note is also lucky to have met his Dad. You can tell they are close and have the same sense of humour 🤣
@@FloraandNote Agreed. Their humour together is next level. As well yours and Note’s of course! 😆 Trek on. 💪🏻🌴🛺🗺⛱
@@samsheldon4241 wow such a beautiful story. I believe in SOUL FAMILY. Family by soul tie not by blood.
Welcome To Phuket. Cookies Looked Yummy. I Would Get A Scoop Of Banana & Coconut Ice Cream. Why Did You Not Stay In Old Town For 1 Night?? How Can You Turn Down That Amazing Hotel With Pool & A Few Steps From The Beach. I Used To Work At Hyatt Near Me. Happy Messages You Painted To See. Absolutely Love Your Dinner. I Am Shocked No Bloopers. Fantastic From Start To Finish.
We did end up staying in the Old Town for a couple nights :) Awesome location for food!
SALUDOS DESDE MI PAÍS CHILE 🇨🇱🌶️😍
Hi
Where does note get those tank tops from? I see he has a few the same but different colours.
Most of them are from Ripcurl 😄 We need to get him sponsored haha
Note, I’m planning to move to Thailand soon and would like to meet you
Happy planing 😊
She looks so familiar, was she on a TV show?? I know!! She looks like my Physical Therapist I had Miss Park.
😂
I am surprised - there is a small rubber estate in Phuket.
How is the humidity there?
Phuket was hot and humid!!You can see how much I was sweating on the hike. We're back in Samui and it's not quite as hot over by the Gulf of Thailand side.
Think if people actually painted the houses in BKK like they are on the streets in Phuket. Think of how clean it would look
I'm missing the bloopers guys! huhu...
The poo fingers almost made it to bloopers but it fit much more nicely in the vlog 😂
@@FloraandNote that was indeed funny! i just can’t with Note’s face after smelling his fingers! haha. thank you for doing it for the rest of us not to do the same. you should bring some wipes next time or alcohol!
I really should bring wet wipes. Don’t know what my big baby will be up to next 😂
Enjoyed Yr video . Not Yr usual VIDEOS of Thailand with a white guy with a half dressed local girls.
Then using them as eye candy to attract that kind of viewers .
So refreshing to watch a nice video and Flora you are not only pretty but so sensitive and humble.
Note looks a Asian actor.
I know those snacks ,love the Catherine wheel ones with Black pepper.
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻💕
groeten uit nederland van ries de mooij.
Awesome! Gonna meet up with Carey?
We did go catch up with her in Rawai :) Did you see her and her kids in our intro?
Oops. My bad. I was sucked into Note’s drone hotel shot and my mind wasn’t able to process on the beach scene. 😆
🤣🤣 it was lovely meeting up with her. The kids grew so much!
it is very nice , but the hotel little bit expensive
There are many choices for mid-range hotels in Phuket too.. we also stayed in Old Town and loved it :)
😍👍👍👍❤️
I look forward to your sharing😍👍👍👍❤️
Hey! No bloopers...😋
the smelly poo fingers made it into the video this time 😂
How do you afford to go to all the resturants & stay @ all these first class resorts? 🤔 Do you have jobs? I'm just curious.......

🏆🏆🏆😁
Nice and well documented but I would suggest another video more about Kamala or other things about Phuket… I know you’re being invited by Hyatt and this video look like you’re so obligated to showcase Hyatt….well “No free lunch” I guess.
Make a 10$ video for 1 week challenge😊😊😊😊😊
No one should expect to live in Thailand for $10 a week. It’s cheap but not that cheap!
@@FloraandNote lol..... Wrong comment. I meant 10$per day for 1 week😂😂😂😂😊😊😊😊🙏🙏
😂
hey flora and note . I want ask somthing . I subscibed to you because of Paddy. There is a little known Aussie guy Jack Torr . Can you look at his channel and give him a plug . It be cool to see him go over 1000 . Just asking is all . I have no interest other than this guy is taking risks and he is aussie like me ..
I live in Phuket for the last 7 years. Your video is all right but you try too hard to keep in normal that it seems fake.
Phuket was way overrated!
These couple vlogs are so cringy 🥴
😂
Bro what’s your problem? Like don’t fucking watch it if you’re not interested ???
Maybe one day you'll find a love of your own...but probably not.
Hey Flora and Note....We've talked in the past a little...not sure if you are interested, but we tip our hat to you at the end of our newest video....We aren't as fun and adventurous as you, but it's us. I come here to find myself because it’s so easy to get lost in the world. - John Burroughs
