"Love" is just a contract after 25... Almost always.
yes mate. There is no doubt that you can buy love in Thailand or any other country. If you are looking for love in bars...good luck. I had my share of that in the 90's. Now I am with a beautiful partner. she has her own business in Suphan Buri. Some people just don't realise that there is life outside of the red light districts and there are a lot of ladies that may want to start a friendship. One tip though...groom and shower and don't walk around in a singlet, shorts and flip flops.
Amen brother
I love my sleeveless t shirts
You can't and shouldn't try to buy love in Thailand.
You can buy another 4 letter word and it's called lust.
@@Miguelito0oO C'mon man.
Thank you for sharing you life and you experiences
. Live life is the most important time. my parents had with minimal education (grade) however they were wise . Thank you again for sharing you wonderful family. If ever you visit Toronto you are welcome to stay in my home
I just love this channel. Thank you for showing the REAL Thailand. The countryside and rural living...all of it! My wife is similar, she just likes the simple life. Love it! Keep the content coming!
Thank you - we are delighted you enjoyed it 🙏🙏
What you give to your family is worth more than a pot of gold, it is real love with your heart and soul. I have learned over time that helping and giving to others has made me the strongest person I can be. I am glad your son is learning all this now while is mind is growing and he will never forget the values you have taught him. Your wife is lucky she can eat all those sweet things and still stay petite as she is. When you show pictures from your past, those memories have made you grow to become the best that are now and will be for the future. Keep it up family, I like to listen to your great wisdom.
Thank you Denise 🙏🙏🙏
Keep strong Ryan and enjoy the life you have with your beautiful wife,Those posting derogatory comments are jealous of what you have and often what their money couldnt buy them,so feel the need to tar every relationship as monetary based
Cheers Shaun 🙏🙏
Could not agree with you more Ryan. I married my wife (Thai) in 1973 when the vietnam war was coming to an end. I remember the day I met her and told myself "I am going to marry this girl. (She was 19 and I was 21 at the time. Asked her father and he immediately said yes. Never asked me for a penny. The Thai people are a very friendly people and if as a foreigner you show some respect, you will get it in return. I cannot stand foreigners that go to Thailand and think they can do or say whatever they want. They should stay home. Great vlog, have a nice day. John
Loving your videos brotha, really sets the tone for my mornings right. I’m from the US California & it’s constantly so hectic here.
When watching your videos it helps bring some peace into my life. Your videos do more then you realize & I really appreciate you. Thanks 🙏
Thank you and it’s always good to read comments like this 🙏🙏
Absolutely agree…huge impact on those of us following along. Really appreciate your insights, and sharing your beautiful life.
I had the same experience. My Thai wife was an accountant and when we married, the family asked for no dowry, but we "staged" the 200 thousand baht dowry for "face" in the community and then they gifted it back to me the next day with a bonus of 1 Rai of land on the riverfront. These are also very simple people, who want for nothing and never asked me for anything... Like yourself, I had to "gift" them things and literally run, so they had to accept it :). REAL THAILAND is so much different from the "semi normal" rhetoric posted by others who lost money due to picking the wrong person to love.... Life is great for you Ryan and I really enjoy watching your journey with your loved ones.
You have a beautiful life surrounded by beautiful souls. I can feel the love and light ❤️🙏 Your don is gorgeous 🌻
Thank you 🙏
Same, same. Been with my Thai wife for 20 years now. She's from a dirt poor Isaan farm family and has NEVER asked for a penny.
Another one of the lucky ones brother :)
You are very honest, sincere, intelligent and knowledgeable. You're also a caring and loving dad. You guys have a very adorable son. Many people are materialistic. It's very rare to have (know) a true love nowadays. Most even don't care what love is! They just worship MONEY.
👍👍👍 Enjoyed your vlogs of leading a simple and sustainable live in Thailand. You are blessed with a beautiful family.
Blessings from Kuching, Malaysia.

I totally agree you with, my wife is Thai and she works harder than me and provides for her family, we have an amazing loving relationship and we never discuss money.
Thank you 🙏✌️✊
ไม่แปลกใจเลย ว่าทำไมครอบครัวของคุณ ถึงเป็นที่รัก เพราะพวกคุณกตัญญู ตอบพ่อแม่ และครอบครัวของคุณ น่ารักมาก ขอให้ครอบครัวของคุณเจริญเจริญ ทำอะไรก็ให้ขอให้เจริญเจริญนะคะ😊😊✌✌
Thank you 🙏
❤️🙏🏼for sharing. You are such a beautiful family! ❤️Thailand & its people so much! Namaste!
I like the way Demos dad lives. That's me for sure.
Simple things in life are the best and generally speaking the simplest things in life are free.
Like nature all around us. Providing us with food and shelter. What more do you need.
Your father in law probably remembers his own childhood on the land. Some people brought up on the land have a connection that many city dwellers do not understand. Especially men who desire peace and oneness with nature. With a radio thrown in!! Its a paradise. A dreamtime. Bless him. That is wealth and health. May he live a long and happy life.
That’s right my friend 🙏
Just like the great band the Beatles said my friend,money can’t buy me love,great video guys it’s nice to see the real life in rural Thailand ✌️🙏
Amen brother 🙏
Love your channel mate young Otis is a lucky boy !
Beautiful happy family living a beautiful happy life! I celebrate my 10th Anniversary with my Thai wife this December (in Buriram, Theyve dropped the quarantine at last!) She moved to the UK 9 years ago, we have a successful business (Thai Takeaway), and Ive never known a more grounded, unselfish, hard working person in all my 67 years! She knew I had nothing more to offer than love, support, and a goal to be happy.
Yes, over 20 years age difference, she came here to help get her two daughters through a good Uni in BKK, which they both have now done.We do intend to move to Thailand in the next few years after we sell the business (hopefully!)
It annoys me so much that the general opinion of the average non Thai guy is that every Thai woman is an ex bar girl, and a gold digger. They exist, yes, but only a very small percentage. And those who are have often been forced into it to feed their kids.
I wish you all the very best of health, wealth and happiness. And, by the way, your little girl is gorgeous!
Otis is a little boy….a very cool one by the way…unless of course you were talking about his wife Damo…lol
He's a gorgeous little boy but I'm sure he's OK with that🙂.
Oops!🤭 😂

Agree with you mate!
You made another video stating those people once if I remember right. You're promoting Thailand in the way that they actually are! Love it, keep it up! :)
Thank you 🙏
Well said, and beautiful family, brother
There is a common misconception that people can buy love in Thailand, often Thai women are degraded and objectified as “Thai brides” available on the market like a car or household appliance.
As someone living here over a decade and having received numourous disgusting comments and assumptions about my relationship on the topic, I decided to share my views as a reminder of the humans involved.
In my experience the most successful relationships both east and west are never based on money, though some definitely work out. I guess the vlog comes with a trigger warning in any case.
Watch here: ua-cam.com/video/8SFQppgc1BU/v-deo.html
your words are so true. we set our own expectations
Just came across your video, thank you very much for this very true content. A tip is that if anyone need a right relationship in Thailand, first and foremost, put yourself in the right place! 😊
Thanks for watching 🙏😊🇹🇭✊
Very good point, brother. It is all about how you start and lead the relationship. You are a very blessed, and you have a beautiful family. I am 54 and planning to go to Thailand
You are a very lucky man, I myself am married to a beautiful Pakistani woman who loves me for me, never asked me about money. I always promised her i would try my best to make her happy. Even now that we have money she does still love to live simple life.
Brah. Nice life, wife, and a very cute kid! Great video and I like your experiences and sharing your opinions, which are great opinions btw, to which I agree. You plants seeds in your own garden. Its about planting the right seeds

🙏✌️☺️🙌
A wonderful episode!!
Thank you 😁🙏
Thankyou Ryan and Damo , fine program .
Yes. I like the idea of living like the dad. I have an old boat that I use as my dwelling. Not very organised and scruffy. Living in the Brisbane River. Can't grow anything, have to cart water for cooking and shower etc.
👍😇❤️
Great topic. Your video always interesting. I’ve show my mom many video of you and translate into Thai for her. She said you are lucky that have a nice wife and warm family.
Thank you and give my regards to your mum 🙏
I’am watching from USA. Your life and family’s are full of happiness. You’re too much lucky. Take care of them forever.
Thank you 🙏
A lot of people can be very small minded on there views on Thailand as regards relationships . At the end of the day Ryan you have worked hard on your relationship and been lucky enough to find a wonderful partner are are blessed to have a Otis . The people with not nice opinions of Thailand and Thai relationships have never been to Thailand, they need to visit before they offer there opinions . I do think it is hard to bring a Thai girl out of Thailand into western society though as they are very family orientated and would miss Thailand . Thais love to visit the west but a large percentage of them can't live in the west for those reasons . Another great video Ryan you look so chilled out there mate .
Thank you and I agree 🙏
Love this
I watch with a smile on my face and in my heart
All I can say, keep on taking care of your wonderful family and don't give a damn of what people say. May JAH always bless you guys and give you many more years to share. Stay blessed and healthy🙏🏿
You are a beautiful family with respect and love for each other ...dont warry what others have to say ....you got gold finding each other .....for sure you two are a example for many others God Bless you from South Africa
Thank you Elsabie 🙏
Lovely vlog, God bless you guys 🙏
Once again a great video. I enjoy the balance you that you bring. All the best to you and your lovely family.
Thank you Peter 🙏
Another interesting vlog Ryan, one that has soooo many answers or views, in my experience the Thai`s in the vast majority are hard working humble friendly people, anyone can buy love in any country in the world , the generalization and denigration of Thai Ladies normally comes from the fortnight millionaires who have no respect for the people whose land they have visited.
Agreed my friend - glad you enjoyed the vlog 🙏
Well the people that not respect the women is such people they want to come to Thailand because they have a lots of money.
Stay safe
Rak Thais RAk Thailand samer
An insight that is so true and likely disturbing to some. I'm loving your vlogs:-)
Thank you 🙏
You’re one lucky dude.. God bless this fmly..🥰
Thank you 🙏
Wow 2 years ago algorithm posted, second episode tonight. Some do not want full time companionship, marriage, and all in retirement . My son loved the chocolate cake and brownies at that age..OMG 4 pound sterling for coffee and cake! 555 I could have been like Damo's dad if born in Thailand. Sporting an old viking beard here Ryan....nice. Wealth is in the land . family, friends. Peace and Love Y'all
Cool , nice coffee shop but the name of the coffee shop lovely .
very well done, tis is absolutely enchanting…
Omg the baby is to cute n I’m with ur father in law live simply n Enjoy life God bless y’all from North Texas
น่ารักมาก..พ่อ แม่ ลูก ครอบครัวนี้ชอบมาก มาก
Great vlog 👍
🙏🙏🙏
Love your blog. Just starting watching
Yes…the good life…the good wife…it’s really about choices isn’t it…..my Thai wife never had a thought about money when we met….I introduced her to good ol capitalism and man she’s loves it now….although after 25yrs she’s ready to cash in and come home…some things are more important than all the money in the world…🙏🏼🇹🇭🌴
🙏🙌✊
Enjoy your videos. Love the idea of the simple life. You always come across well. A great family and lifestyle choice 🙏
Another good vlog .
So you're in Buriram,very nice.
Stay blessed Ryan 🙏
Thank you Nick 🙏
Listening to you and how you see other people and relationships is exactly how I rant also. Love and honesty are two great basis to live your life. “ The more money people have, the less they reckon they’ve got” That’s my life’s motto. It’s the most damaging addiction on the planet. Bless you mate to you and your family. Keep it simple and enjoy what you have.
🙏😁✌️✊
I love your videos so so much! I’m so happy I found your channel. I appreciate your honest vibes and outlook on life. I wish I could leave western society and live this simple life. It looks so tempting! Have a great day!
Thank you and you too brother 🙏✊
Your a very lucky guy. I want to do a similar thing in Laos
Thank you 🙏
glad i discovered your channel,,,,, very refreshing
Welcome Bruce 🙏
Enjoyed as always Ryan..Nice to see Pappa and his set up out on the land..Place is looking good and happy with his litter of dogs and lifestyle. Damo & Otis always a joy to see in the vlogs mate..
Cheers Jim 🙏🙌
sitting Toronto Canada, I love your channel
Good rant 2 day,my wife is my best friend,same u never has asked for money since we have been together and that 12 years🇹🇭🇮🇪🙏🏻🙏🏻
Lovely family.
Wise words !
Ryan, my experience is very very similar to yours.
🙏🙏🙏
You're a good man with a fantastic family love the videos bro all the best from Baildon Yorkshire 🙏🙏🙏
Cheers my friend 🙏
Coffee shop looks good Ryan. I can’t wait to visit them coffee shops in the north of Thailand
Relationships based on money are meaningless!! God Bless!
🙏🙏
Beautiful family much love from Scotland👌
Thanks so much
I couldn’t agree more! I have been married to a wonderful Thai woman for more than twenty years and she nor her family have ever asked for a penny. She is tighter than me and that is saying something as I am Scottish!
I was so money orientated before I met her and she brought sense and meaning to my life which cost nothing. We are fairly wealthy but live a happy life on very little travelling the world. She is not materialistic in any way and taught me to be the same.
She worked in the “Big C” supermarket head office before I met her and has a lovely family, some rich and some poor. I suppose it matters where you meet your wife and how the relationship started off. I agree that if you meet someone and there is an exchange of money at the beginning, you have to expect that this is likely to be an ongoing arrangement rather than love.
There are lots of horror stories but I have heard much more good than bad, by far! Just do your due diligence, take your time, suss them and their family out then enjoy the rest of your life with the best person ever.
Thanks for your videos!
Thank you for sharing your experience also 🙏🙏
Keep it going mate 👍
Cheers Neil 🙏
This vlog struck a cord with me to remember it not what you want its to be happy with what you have...L.A Rob
🙏🙏🙏
I’m in awe…you bloody beautiful human
Thank you 🙏
Hey mate. Loving the videos. I've been here about 25 years now. Been with my wife since 1998. We met at University. There was a large period of our relationship where she was earning more than me too. We paid a dowry when we got married which was given back to us the following week. Her folks were government teachers in Surin (they're retired now) and the dowry was more of a 'face' thing for the family. It would have been the same if she was marrying a Thai lad. They helped with our first house deposit and we now have quite a bit of property and land in both Surin city and country. All gifted by the family. I've been very lucky, and I appreciate not everyone has this experience, but I think it's important for newer expats, etc, to know the other side of the story too. I'd love to swing passed for a cuppa on my next trip out to Surin.
Thank you for sharing your experience my friend 🙏🙏
I was there 1999 and the best place I've ever best food ever when you got 60 to 70 bht for £ it was very chesp when it crashed and went to 30 I came home regret that now for about 10 years..
My Thai partner is an Angel, and has never asked for money. But your right women here are no different from any other country, just a lower standard of living! But as you have said before, they are very happy with their lot in life!
Always interesting and informative, already and beautiful family who are happy with what they have
Thank you!
Absolutely correct man of blessed
I just subscribed... I spent some time watching your channel. You are perhaps, atleast the only one so far. That just spends time normal... lol... no opinions per say or philosophy. No bashing countries and promoting Thailand. You just show life on the farm and it's a Thai style farm. What we would call a large garden. But it is great. Oddly the other channels and I don't want to really bash on them. Try to make it obvious they are "expats "... and in Thailand and... yeah. Watching you..so far.. it's relatable. Sure you're in Thailand and that is what makes it interesting. But it is relatable. I have been to Thailand. Many..many years ago. I won't go into detail no need. But had a wonderful relationship with a wonderful woman from northern Thailand. Her family had a wonderful large rice farm. Unfortunately I couldn't get her Visa and I was in the military and was unable to stay overseas long enough to make it work. Many many years ago. Just don't change anything. You have a great family and wonderful outlook on life. I am looking forward to seeing your future posts.
Thank you and welcome to the channel 🙏🙏
Another great video. Nice balanced talk about the money situation.
Thank you Sanuk 🙏
Us watching are so blessed for you sharing !
🙏🙏
Never remember your name, but you look like Robinson Crusoe ha! ha! Top Videos Oh! Top Family Indeed
sweet family and you are very fortunate
simplicity at its best, stay well and blessed always
Thank you 🙏
You are a millionaire in so many ways!!!!
🙏🙏
Cute kid. Nice place to grow up.
So do I love the nature and going to coffee shop
You are what you attract if your a loser you will attract a loser if you have a good heart and you are a genuine person that what you will attract 🙏🤟
I agree - we create our own reality in this way 🙏
You nailed it.
As you said your are very blessed 🙏 your thai flamly is the ♥
I am Thai,Thank you for this wonderful vid.
🙏❤️
Great video thanks. Looking forward for more.
Thank you Hugh - mentioned you at the end there 🙏🙏
Finding a wife like his is impossible in the west, it's almost always about money and lifestyle and keeping up with the Jones'. A different and better culture out there.

Your right side pain with sugar intake is very likely due to one of two things:
1.
liver (or bile duct) damage from your drinking and bad eating days.
The lining of the liver (and bile duct) have pain receptors, but not the liver tissue itself.
When you eat sugar and fat together now, the liver likely swells or gets inflamed and stretches the pain receptors in the liver lining.
2.
Irritable bowel syndrome from damaging enzyme producing cells in your small intestine, specifically the enzymes concerned with digesting sugars. However, this pain is likely to be more widespread, including the left side of your abdomen.
What should you do about it?
- avoid processed sugar of all types (esp high fructose corn syrup) for up to 5 years.
- eat a low fat diet (if eating lean animal flesh, eat
Another possibility is you are lactose intolerant due to damage to enzymes responsible for lactose breakdown, and the desserts you are eating have high levels of dairy product.
However lactose intolerance causes more widespread bloating and gas, and associated pain.
nice words, for young people but when you're old, money becomes your main attraction
I travelled around Thailand after being so fortunate to time my trip right before COVID kicked in around the world, I remember that flight in early February 2020 and how empty the country became by March 2020. Thank God for that decision. I spent 4 months and had a varied experience but never did I think people were obsessed with money like most of my peers here in London. Koh Kood was one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Pai and the Northern circuit were also incredible. Love your podcast and your UA-cam channel. Much love.
I can't get over the picture of you two! Kids! Whippersnappers! Kanchanaburi, eh? I wonder if you ever met Craig Price (R.I.P.) when you were there?
No I didn’t 🙏🙏
People are opportunistic everywhere, though if you can can find a woman that is indifferent to this mentality, you are a lucky man.... people that are happy to live a simple life, and are resourceful, that's the way to be....better to have a fulfilling life, than worry about constantly having to pay things off.
nice family outing if you hang around bars different story to living in the rural way
All of us do need money to live but the more money we all have make us unhappy life.so money is not everything.
Beautiful families 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
