Thai people are like ANY group of people. You have those who will stick with you and those who will leave you at the drop of a hat. You likely have a very good wife. Count your blessings.
Hi mate l am a recent subscriber primarily because l like and appreciate your content and more importantly you come across as a good bloke. Firstly l wish you all the best and l hope things fall into place for you and your wife sooner rather than later. Secondly l, like the previous comment from SimlpySheilaB would like to know the monthly rent and location of your condo. Take care mate🙏
Uhhh... My guy... Does that hat mean what I think it means? Also, as a divorced guy, dude, your wife is REALLY not okay. She's clearly worried going on body language alone, you need to really make the effort to reassure her.
Not trying to teach your Granny how to suck eggs, but, having worked as a contractor for many a year in the marine industry, I always thought it best to 'go careful' until the next job came along. However, each to their own.
I think you could teach English and make a living. I know people go through the ups and downs, but we pick ourselves up and move on. Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change. Best wishes to you and your wife. 😊
Why do you care so much about negative comments? Just delete them and throw them away. As I told you before, you will be fine. Just make some UA-cam videos; you are good at it.
Nice condo tour. Very beautiful wife with an amazing smile who cooks delicious food! Great video. This video generated more ads for me than the last one. Good for you! : ) I'm planning a 3 week expedition to Thailand next spring. with more than half of that spent in and around Chiang Mai with an eye towards retiring there.
@@harveythompson1756 Tell all these UA-camrs to stop showing how amazing it is. lol I was initially inclined towards the Philippines because I have friends there but Thailand appears so much better on so many fronts.
You are a lovely couple and her food looked delicious! Just out of curiosity, do you jump in as a chef in your kitchen from time to time making western dishes?
Hi Jon, you don't need to travel outside Thailand for your content. There are other UA-camrs for each country already. This is just my personal opinion. I plan to move to Thailand in 6 years and am only interested in Thailand content/ information. Good luck with your new adventures. 😊
Hi Jon, Not sure what job you had but getting work with a Thai Company isnt easy & with many Chinese invading Chiangmai its gonna get harder? as Thai companies will look at multi language skills if for a work permit?? Retail is getting hit by Temu & Lazarda & is damaging Thailand. Also forget bars etc as those days have gone? If you decide on real estate be aware many Thais are sellers, brokers etc & even getting the commissions can backfire & as you know you cannot freelance but your wife can. I note your wife has a business & you could assist her in the interim as an option with new ideas. Like to hear what work skills you have....but I stress to anyone coming to Thailand to start business---make sure you have a Thai Manager whom you can trust as without youre dead before you start???
Hi Jon, how can we get in contact with your rental agent, phone/mail. Maybe we could rent it for a month or 2? What does it cost/include? Have you got access to gym/pool there? Thank you for showing, looked very nice and modern.👍
yeah..and yeah. but yeah...no but yeah.....for gods sake man, one would think that you were the first person ever to be fired from a job...stop sniffing and snivelling , and get a grip.
Sorry about your situation but I’m about your age and married. She is not cool with what just happened lol. She’s looking around like “wtf”. Might want to have a legit talk
Yes, there is flooding all around Chaing Rai. Parts of Hyw 118 (the main highway from Chiang Rai to Chiang Mai) are flooded. Every time it starts to rain, I start to worry. I am hoping the weather improves from my monthly ride to Chaing Mai. I usually spend two nights in a different hotel to check out new restaurants and do some shopping. So sad about the work situation. Does it affect your visa situation?
Luckily I have a non o and get my work permit through my own company invoicing the company I worked for so no issues there, downside is no 3 months compensation :) Yeah the Ping here is getting near flooding, hopefully the rain will stop!
The truth is 6 months a year Chiang Mai pollution makes the place unlivable. It's 6 mths not the 3 mth burning season nonsense. The horrendous air blows in from India Bangladesh and Laos as well as the local burning of rice paddy stubble and rural village household garbage.
If you like books on the history of Southern Africa, I highly recommend “The Great Boer War” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (same author as Sherlock Homes books). It’s a very fascinating and balanced account of the Boer War. It’s a great book.
keep your spirits up, just remeber you’re not alone in these temp obstacles and struggles. Many people have had that life disruption and made it thru, people with less personality and less talent then you. You seem to be a good bloke, you will land on your feet. Ps: live that condo and especially the bay windows. Did you do a video about it before? Would appreciated a link if you did. Thanks in advance
I've just rediscovered your channel again I think soon you will sort out a new job have some down time good luck for the future I'm travelling to Thailand on Sunday hopefully the weather changes 😮
The problem with UA-camrs is they only show the good bits, editing real life will always make is look better! Keep it real and you will get real subs. It’s not all beers and skittles in Thailand, no matter how UA-camrs spin it.
I would love to see adventure around the northern part of Thailand on a motorcycle. I’m planning a motorcycle trip for 3 weeks early next year. Learning the roads, places to see and stay and where to eat would be awesome! Sorry about your job loss.
If your in CM in Nov can meet up, if you have time, happy to pay for your time to show us around if that interests you,- me and the wife. Been to CM few times and now considering CM to early retire, me (brit), wife (japanese)..
Jon, I also believe that this is just a karma housekeeping that is preparing you for something bigger and better. Any thoughts on doing private English teaching for businesses or just one-on-one's? How about having a chat with Simon over at Perfect Homes. He might have some good advice for ya. Also, whatever you do with your channel is always fun and creative. I look forward to seeing the journey from here on! In D&D terms, you finished a quest and now the next quest has begun.
Have you thought about doing some online surveys ? They pay you in points and you can convert these points into cash. And it’s up to you how many you do in a day, week, month
It happens to everyone at some point in your working life. Sure you will find something new. It’s a shock but stay positive - it will be a bad memory in no time. Cheers Graham
Start cranking out content. Before, you were too busy. Now? UA-cam is your job. On a separate note, your condo looks great. And, yes, when you are 50 and you can remember events from 35 years ago like they happened yesterday, life does indeed seem very short.
Sorry for your job loss mate, it can happen to anymore suddenly. Your Thai wife is very supportive during these hard times, though she looks a bit turned down. Stay strong 💪
Wouldn't be too worried about losing a job - I lost one back in 1993 - best thing that ever happened me - made me wake up and start using my own creativity and skills instead for my benefit of going power by the hour for someone elses gain. Clouds and silver linings Jon....
I enjoy these day in the life videos 😊 I sometimes put them on in the background when I'm doing something ~ Thank you for inviting us to your house! that nam pick ong looks good! Best of luck in your next endeavor!
This is something most channels don't address. If you're in a ltr with a middle class thai woman, is she likely to support you if you fell on hard times for a while? So many of the Pattaya vloggers are basically dating glorified bar girls who, while not earning a salary, are definitely aware that their farangs have money.

I thought one of the tips to coming to Thailand was you didn't take a job from the Thai people and you came in the country with your job either online or working for an american company?
I thought Chiang Mai was full of foreign digital nomads and wannabe entrepreneurs? Presumably some English-speaking jobs supporting that micro-sector of the economy? (co-working spaces?)
I don't get it. You're married and reside in Chiang Mai, you speak Thai (I assume), and Chiang Mai is developing, so shouldn't it be fairly easy for you to find a new job there?
A job at decent money is very hard to find in Thailand . The locals will /have to take low money .Jon has always worked and has been lucky so far ,so i hope his luck continues .
@@anthonydowling3356 People all have a different definition of what "decent money" is. Jon seems to be pretty good at watching his spending, so I'd think an average middle-class income would be good enough (as he works on his UA-cam side hustle).
@@horizontaldecline7944 I haven't worked in Chiang Mai, or Thailand. But I'm considering it in the future in a few years after I get a handle on Thai. So that's why I find it a bit disheartening when he says it's so difficult to find a job there...
It’s not “ offensive “ to Thai people to assume it would be “ over “ even if not true in your case because here in Thai culture it’s VERY important that a man can finically provide …. MOST Thai women can’t afford to “ casual date “ notice I said MOST This is NOT opinion this is Thai culture and farang and other foreigners should not be “ offended “ by a culture that’s not their own! I been living in Bangkok 4 years and do business with successful Thai men that have money and they think most important thing a man should able to do to get married is financially take care of women and her family ! In Thai culture it’s not even “ offensive “ for parents to ask directly how much you make and what you do for money like in America for example this would be “ offensive “ … judging from the fact you have “ free time “ to make videos your not completely broke yet but in most cases over time it would cause a problem in a normal Thai relationship…if you choose another culture to live take the good and bad and move on because MOST Thais look ANY farang or foreigner with a Thai women and assume he is paying her weather true or not
The Philippines would be better for your channel at the moment over Malaysia. There is a big audience of Americans that watch expat vloggers in the Philippines. Right now people in the U.S. are getting shown a lot of ads for the upcoming political elections in early November.
Setbacks are just setups for something better.

How much is your condo per month and whereabouts is it please ❤
10k I think he said yesterday
two days of travel, max. Safeguard family's mental health.
Maybe 1 week :)
She’ll say later bro doesn’t matter who you are. Just female nature.
Is there a listing for the condo somewhere? Or how do we contact about it?
Just got someone in for now.
The truth is 6 months a year Chiang Mai pollution makes the place unlivable. It's 6 mths not the 3 mth burning season nonsense. The horrendous air blows in from India Bangladesh and Laos as well as the local burning of rice paddy stubble and rural village household garbage.
Don't forget Myanmar.
You left out Myanmar along with Laos and Cambodia these are the three worst 😭 And,yes 6 months is more accurate...
Who is reading the Graham Hancock book?
Your unit looks great. Where is it situated?
Jon says he's reading the Graham Hancock book.. at least his stories are entertaining, albeit, 100% fictional 😂
I'm fairly sure that it's in Hillside 3 in Nimman. Jon can correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah Hillside 3 thanks Jim, yep I'm re reading it, love Hancock :)
Make a video what you're good at or want to do and include an email for contact somewhere, and you might find a new job......!
Take care jon

I had a highly paid job here for many years and happy to live in BKK Kap.🙏

I hope that question at 1:30 was scripted, otherwise that was one hell of an unexpected answer.
Can you recommend an agency in Chiang Mai for short term rentals - 1-3 months or so?
What job were you doing in Chiang Mai Jon?
If you like books on the history of Southern Africa, I highly recommend “The Great Boer War” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (same author as Sherlock Homes books). It’s a very fascinating and balanced account of the Boer War. It’s a great book.
Ah not read that one, read a few on the topic though, thanks for the recommendation :)

Question answered elsewhere.
Nice condo,any amenities in the condo building ?
Thanks, no there is no pool or gym but the location is spot on :)
How much do eggs cost in Chiang Mai?
Around 80 baht for 12 give or take I think
