    The airport is not really a valid mode of transport unless you’re coming from Chiang Mai where there’s one flight a day incoming and outgoing. No flights to and from Bangkok.

    Thanks for the video & advice, last year, I lived in Jomtien Beach for 6 months and my monthly budget was $3K with an accompany of regular Thai lady 3 times a week without buying any barfines and lady drinks, been eating Thai foods in the market. In my early 50's now, I was planning to retire but I changed my plans so I'm back working in Cali started from scratched, will do this again next year.

      Pattaya is popular but not for me. You will always spend more in places like Pattaya, Phuket, and Bangkok for costs. Plenty of more amazing places in Thailand for much less. The beaches are so polluted in Pattaya now that it's not safe to swim.

    The last time l went to Hau hin was before the pandemic and it was in the process of being built up. Looking at it now, l am astonished at how much development has taken place. I liked Hau hin when l was there and will be going back later next year for a 2 month visit . Great video, on a low budget and the prices for accommodation are amazingly low

      I don't have to pay for anything for my Thai fiance. She has always been financially independent and working in corporate/office work environments. I have never done the rent a girlfriend in Thailand so I wouldn't know. So many of those girls are bad news. They often have multiple sponsors going and will always cost you. The majority of women in Thailand are polite, caring and classy with good jobs that there's no need for bar girls in my honest opinion. The best Thai women would never work in a bar and are offended by men who try to treat them like bar girls.

    • @paradise-adventures
      @paradise-adventures  Місяць тому +1

      In Thailand there are a lot of requirements and lack of fulfulling these requirements come with a pretty big risk. You need to have pubic liability insurance for your drone, and the drone needs to be registered with two separate governing bodies. See here for details uavcoach.com/drone-laws-in-thailand/ If you are caught without proper paperwork you risk 100,000 baht fine or 5 years in jail for each drone flight (battery used).

    • @paradise-adventures
      @paradise-adventures  27 днів тому

      The lack of red light districts and girl bars is a plus for me. They're putting on festivals and lifting their nightclub scene to attract younger travellers. They have great sports facilities and gyms. For a cheap city on the beach, it's a great option for those who want to live a healthier lifestyle.

      Try saying it quickly as you would in normal conversation and don't let your accent come out? So many foreigners like to pick at other people's accents and want to correct them when speaking Thai. I've always found it interesting that Thai people don't do it.
