Feet on the ground facts and no sales pitch keeps me a lifetime member. Thank you for your hard work.
Congratulations on 150,000 subscribers! Love your videos, jam-packed with valuable practical information and stunning scenery👍💫 Thank you
Thanks so much!
Just signed up for the lifetime subscription. I remember the first time I watched one of your videos, it was so inspirational. From that moment on, I’ve been working towards a plan to exit the country and travel. It’s very close to fruition and I have to thank you for showing that it’s possible.
Wow. Thank you. We really appreciate your support. Make sure to watch the Retire Overseas Course to reduce the mistakes and make sure you end up in the right place. Also, remember to do your exploratory visits we teach in the course to make sure you set your budget expectations right. Have a great weekend.
Holy moly did you see that nice.......ahh,... reef? 😂
But seriously, another great video with excellent info. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
@@VagabondAwake oh we did!
Thank you Dan for another excellent report. Thanks to you I’ve been to all. I’m a slow SEAsian traveler and a finding Vietnam a home base for now. So many wonderful choices in SE Asia. Da Nang, Nha Trang, Da Lat and areas within an hour are my current favorites. Puerto Galera, Baguio are high on my list also. You’ve been a big part of my expatriation resourced and success. This is beyond my imagination just 2 years ago. Thank you 🙏🏼
Great to hear! Come tell your story when you are ready. It makes it real for more people: vagabondbuddha.com/contact/
Thai taxes may not be as bad as you think. There was a video that was released a couple hours before this video on the “Retired Working For You” channel on the video titled “BIG Update on the New Thai Tax Law” at 11:45 discussing Thailands new tax law with a tax attorney. Taxes on repatriation of income only applies to money repatriated to a Thailand bank. It does not include Credit Card Transactions or ATM withdrawals from a foreign bank. If you’re making a large transaction you might need to remit money to a Thai bank, but it looks like if you just need money for day-to-day living you won’t be taxed using those 2 options.
ua-cam.com/video/ljy7qdhy4VU/v-deo.htmlsi=v-UWBsOaDAxwCx1W
That is amazing news if true. Does the tax attorney guarantee this or are they just saying something like "the current interpretation of the law is only wire transfers to Thai banks?" That is how they keep themselves out of trouble when the tax man comes knocking. Thanks for the link. Hopefully, I will get time to listen. If you want a guarantee, you need to pay a tax man yourself and get them to say this to you withour qualification. Thanks, very useful is true. :-)
@@VagabondAwake makes sense; can't see how they would be able to track & tax every foreign debit and credit card transaction.
Boracay is the most expensive island in the Philippines to stay, very few restaurants with quality food! Kampot/Kep Cambodia deserves a mention, has lots to offer!
We have been to both Kep and Kampot. :-) Have you seen our Cambodia playlist? www.youtube.com/@VagabondAwake/playlists
@@VagabondAwake Yes, also forgot to mention Lombok and the Gili Islands, certainly worth a visit!
Yes rent is higher in Phi.why?- but Boracay is pricey..
Filipino foods in general are not rated highly like Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese. It is also generally not very healthy either. It has few veggies and is loaded with grease.
@@alfaromeo6985the use of seed oils and processed garbage is becoming an epidemic all over asia.
Thanks Dan! I started watching your channel 2 years ago. Your information and advice gave me the motivation.
I finally did it, I have my feet on the ground. I'm currently in Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam. I'm eating like the locals and I just had a great night at a jazz club. I'm looking forward to more travel. Again, thanks.
Glad you guys are back. Haven't seen any videos for a while.
I do two per week and Qiang does 2 per week. Please subscribe (and click the bell) so you at least know which titles you want to click and watch. Thank you for watching!
Another excellent video
Amazing work as always. One of my favorite channels
Wow, thanks!
you're such a GOAT for sharing this. Just makes me sad I only have 17 days off/year.. Hopefully I can retire by 35 and live in all these places for a few months
GOAT. That is a first. lol. Thanks man. I was in your shoes until age 47. Just make sure to beat my date and you will be the new GOAT.
Hi Dan, thanks 🙏 for all that you do 👊✊💪🤙😎🏆
My pleasure! Literally. lol.
Great report Dan. Packed with good info. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
I met you in Puerto Morelos, Mexico, so now I know I can trust your info here about asia..thx
Thanks Dan…great report 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it
Great vlog Dan.
Dan your videos are always informative
Thank you Frank. We try to keep it fresh. :-)
Smart video series for those inclined to move to Southeast Asia. I have been here for nine years and I agree with your conclusions.
Come be a guest star and tell your story: vagabondbuddha.com/contact/
Please copy your above message into the email you send me so I remember why I invited you on the channel. :-)
Thanks Dan for your fav 2025 retirement destinations. Some of us are a few years further out. Would be great to get your POV on best 2030 places to retire!!
Laws and conditions change on the ground ever year these days. Hard to pick that far in advance because you don't know what tricks politicians have up there sleeves that far ahead. That is one of the reasons I talk about remaining foot loose and fancy free in retirement instead of putting down deep roots. That way, you are not stuck if there is somewhere else that wants to treat you better. :-)
The problem with the "Best" type of videos is whats best for one is not so for another. Get boots on the ground and see what's best for each. I just moved to Duma (which I said I never would) from Northern Luzon. Still getting settled but feeling positive.
Well said. We all have different needs and wants.
Great video! I'm very surprised Bali is #1! From what I've researched it's not cheap, at least not compared to other places in SE Asia!
Here is my on the ground research there: ua-cam.com/video/5WDpVGjwigg/v-deo.html
Thank you Dan, for such a comprehensive overview. The video seemed to be cut a bit short for me, can I ask what was your overall number 1 please? (After Nha Trang VN). Thank you
Here you go. ua-cam.com/video/HDhh-YnBQ6g/v-deo.htmlsi=pT_VK0Ezfe-sJFaH&t=796
Now you can watch the video of my number 1 while I explain why.
@@VagabondAwake thank you very much Dan
Hi Dan! It’s Dr Joseph on my 13th around the world. Uzbekistan was awesome and Tbilisi is now my favorite city on earth! Currently in Bangkok recovering and off to Manila then danang the Tokyo etc…if you’re at any of these let’s do lunch!
That would be great. Sounds like our timing is still a bit off. Hopefully before too long. :-)
@@VagabondAwake is it a secret where u are ;)
@@dr.josefudeyama64yup
Nice video and info Dan! Everyone's needs and wants will be different but you covered some great places. However Boracay wouldn't even make my top 50 list LOL
No worries. What are your top 10 JR?
@@VagabondAwake I could maybe do a top 3, I haven't travelled extensively as you guys yet. Also since I am still in what I consider early retirement, my list would be different once I want to bed down for good. Right now in early retirement. 1. Bangkok, love the conveniences and things to do 2 . Udon Thani, still good size city 3. Krabi for beach life but still connected to mainland. #1 for Asia is Okinawa for us but its a pipe dream as they don't have any type of retirement visa available
Another great and inspiring video. Let’s hope these gems don’t become Californicated and thus affordable only to the elite.
I hope so too!

What kinds of risks are you taking if you move overseas?
vagabondbuddha.com/our-liability-disclaimer-the-risk-is-on-you/
One thing I notice you really go to some beutiful locations
Life is short. It is not for everyone, but I am willing to take risks many people my age are not. Go at your own pace. Have fun!
@@VagabondAwake Sorry to hear Dumagette is being westernized maybe you can let us know what location you think will be the next Dumagette. Thanks..
Excellent analysis. Only one I found odd is Koh Samui. If you will get island fever in Boracay, you’d catch it in about 10 minutes on Koh Samui.
Koh Samui is 10 times the land mass of Boracay. Thanks for sharing.
@@VagabondAwake just don’t see how it compares to the other places on your list. But i respect your opinions
Absolutely..
Koh Samui is very well developed. It has excellent hospitals, international schools, and an international airport on the island. Boracay, while lovely, is almost 100% dedicated to tourism.
@@leelafond fair enough.. thank you
No Hua Hin ???
Surprised. A couple of reasons?
Im the p.t. Leg press great..d/ b curls, too much momentum.No momentum and hold in flex for a couple of seconds Keep you elbows in one position. Lifting them reduces flex strength.. Will make a big difference to your upper body development
Nha trang is a great place. I visit regularly.
Hi Dan, have you done anything on Visas?
Every written report has visa information. Just click the first or second link below each location video/
I liked Sapa in northern Vietnam.
Beautiful country.
We love Da Nang and planned see Nha Trang and Da Lat next Visit.
I would disagree with Ubud #1, too much traffic, over crowded, and roads are bad to drive.
I would rank BKK over KL.
Yes, we find slight variances in top places between even Qiang and I. We lived in Central Ubud, walk everywhere and never tried to drive, so a different experience than driving places. Yes, Bangkok is amazing too. That was a tough call. Thanks for your input. It helps give others perspective.
Hey Dan with the latest trend of “ visa free entry” can you do a video on which countries US citizens can enter and stay for at least 90 days with out a visa? Do you know anything about The Marshall Islands? Great work!! Thx for all the info
I have not been to the Marshall islands. I have areport about living visa free for 14 years overseas. But laws change all the time so check again before going anywhere. vagabondbuddha.com/how-to-retire-on-a-tourist-visa/
Fine print, if you do not open a thai bank account your good, tax free, ATM withdrawl is not a taxable event, cheers and thanks for this video!🙏
I have heard that also. And it makes sense. Thanks for sharing. Have you seen that in writing anywhere yet? I have only heard people talking about it. Thanks!
Boracay is pricey to live,&seems to have a water shortage,, unless your in a pricey place on the beach,,was there last april,,the Algae was out and there's no regular local beach showers to rince off with,,the Airport,, Catalan is very crowded,,Cebu air had a 5 hr breakdown,, had to bring in another plane,,Cebu air is often a fun airline,😜, I think id choose Panglao in Bohol,,Panang is awesome,Rentals in Phi.seem to be higher than Nam or Thailand,,why?,not sure..Good Vid guys👍
Thanks for your thoughts on favorites. We are all different in this so you are giving people other ideas. :-)
9:16 thank you. Vietnam 🇻🇳
Da Nang is my choice !👍🏽
Love it.
5:24
Pa-Neng
😂 😂 😂
60 or 90 day visa given for indonesia. Or 30 plus 30 extension? Thanks.
It depends on your home country. Check the Indonesian Embassy webpage in your home country to see the rules for passport holders of your home country.
Us
May I wonder; do you still have to file taxes every year right? Do you do it remotely online?
I have used the same accountant in the USA since 1992.
I file US taxes using TurboTax each year just like I did in the US.
Ubud is great but it has become too popular and during the high season it has major traffic jams.
We walk everywhere there. They have walking streets in the central area. We stayed there. :-) Check out our apartment and restaurants here on UA-cam video for Ubud: ua-cam.com/video/5WDpVGjwigg/v-deo.html
If you are not already living here unfortunately Thailand is going to be a question mark for those considering moving to Thailand because of tax issue. It went into effect this year but no one knows how it is going to work for retired expats. I suspect that we won’t know until January 2025 when individuals start filing or we hear from tax experts (again). That Retired Working For You interview with a tax lawyer is excellent but leaves unanswered questions.
Hi Martin, Great to hear from you. Yes, I saw that video. It left out many things which makes me think I would not risk it without getting a paid professional opinion before making any decisions. If I were Thai curious I would stay in country for 180 days until I had clear firm answers. I might even wait a few years before going over 180 days just to see how things settle.
@@VagabondAwake Fortunately I have the 10 year pensioner LTR visa. The money I bring into Thailand is tax exempt.
Do I have to pay taxes to thailand if I'm a TOURIST(not retiring) bringing in several thousand dollars?
No, tourists do not pay income tax. The law only applies to residents.
My limited understanding is that you have to spend 180 days before you are taxable in Thailand. But verify with your accountant before making any decisions.
@@michaeltakayama8415You can be in Thailand a max of 180 days per year to avoid being considered a Thai resident and liable for income taxation.
Nothing hear this yr.on Sri Lanka?
These are my top 10 in the world right now. Out of the hundreds of places that I have been, there are only 10. But I have reports on hundreds here: vagabondbuddha.com (including sri lanka).
I would pick Georgetown over Kuala Lumpur but Malaysia is not my thing to heavily influenced by its Muslim majority. Koh samui you might be stuck on the island for days sometimes because the ferries don’t run because of bad weather and the public transportation is not good.
The Malaysians have been kind of me. All three ethnic groups, Malay, Chinese, and Indian. Qiang and I can not recall any Islamic terror in Malaysia. But you are entitled to your opinion.
@@VagabondAwake I am not talking about terror some foods are harder to find in Malaysia because of Islam. I see where women aren’t treated as equal in the job market. I find it strange where some convenience stores will sell tobacco but not beer. Again these are because of the country’s Muslim majority.
Man, you really lost me at the end, you went so fast with the additional 5. Why wouldn't you show the name and show a picture of a map with the places?
Here is the link with everything in writing. Even the last 5. vagabondbuddha.com/best-cheap-places-to-retire-in-se-asia-in-2025/
How do have nerves of steel driving a scooter without getting knocked off the road?😮
I rode a chopper to high school. And I drive super defensively. If you decide to drive a motorcycle in SE Asia where a helmet and start on back roads. The cities are horrendously dangerous.
There is No Tax on foreigen income so far, der Dan!
Hi Hans, where is here? We discuss 6 countries in this video. :-)
Dan, since you're posting videos of SE Asia while traveling in Eastern Europe I'm gussing that you are missing the nice beaches, exotic food and low cost of living in this part of the world..
🌊🏖🌞
Dan loves the sun and beach. I always perk up when a place was a bit too cold for him
We are in Split Croatia today. It is warm and beautiful at the beach. :-) Cost of living reporting coming in about 3 a month. :-)
Personally, since Im Westernize and Catholic I prefer the Philippines although its under developed and sub health care. I just cant bring myself to live in a muslim country or go to these buddha temples you go to and not understand the criptic signs in local asian alphabets. Seems like an entire different world im not comfortable in.
No worries. If you are happy with your decision, I am happy for you.
Nha Trang is not much to do and it’s boring city. Siem Reap Cambodia is beautiful province to retire there.
Thanks for the cover. Appreciate the swim suit model. She obviously is an attention getting beauty.
No problem 😊
Hey Dan, I’m wondering since you have so much experience in the Philippines if you’ve heard of a spot called Bitcoin Island? I’ve heard there is like 250+ vendors/businesses that accept bitcoin…thoughts??
I have not. But I am not involved in the Bitcoin world. I try to stay invested in things I understand. That is over my head. No offense intended.
@@VagabondAwake since your not involved in the bitcoin standard, maybe you should invest a few hours just looking into it😃🙌💯Love you two and thank you for all you provide because it’s a lot😎💐🥰#Bitcoin#Slowtravel#Fun
I don't know why u would recommend any part of Indonesia, their visa rules are stupid ,there drug laws are draconian
Thanks for sharing.
It’s probably not a good idea to be using drugs in any foreign country
@@martypollI would be happy to not be around drug users. I am tired of drugs being glorified.
I like your content and it's quality work.
No need for the booty shots and all the bikini pics. I'd much rather see local sites while you're explaining things.
We show ourselves in our videos to prove we were there. Other people share research they got online. It is just a credibility thing. Sorry if it bothers you. If it is a beach, we have beach clothes on. In cities we have city clothes on. But we are not in every. Just enough to prove we were there. Plus, like in all advertising, if you show a pretty woman, you get more clicks. More clicks means we get our travel paid for. Fewer clicks means we pay for our own travel. It actually costs a lot of money to do this. So we appreciate not coming out of pocket to inform you. No offense intended.
climate change and rising pollution levels are becoming increasingly obvious in Bali.
hard pass but luv the channel....wish you continued happiness and good health
Thank you. You too my friend. :-)
Climate change 😂
@@trentbrady8829Some people are easily brainwashed by the government to believe in climate change.
show the places, not the stick
Thanks for the constructive criticism.
Koh Pan gan! C'mon Dan. You need to start learning how to pronounce.
Thanks for your constructive criticism. :-)
I like some of your stuff but just getting so bored of seeing your girlfriends backside as she walks away, can't you just get a little bit more creative with good content rather than go for cheap click bait pervy stuff
Thanks for the feedback.
If you don’t like it go to another channel, it’s really as simple as that.
I get that.
If you have issues seeing a beautiful Asian woman.. feel free to click something else. A normal man should appreciate the fact that Dan has a beautiful partner .. smh
That comment made me laugh out loud. While I never object to a beautiful backside it has become a bit of a cliched image in Dan's videos.
Thailand has NOT started taxing $ coming in. They are trying to figure out what they are going to do about that, that law has been on the books for years
Tax policy was changed in 2023, effective Jan 1, 2024. We'll see the effect on expat incomes in early 2025. Until then... who knows TIT!
I love Thailand. I hope you are right. But the law is in effect now. Try not to spend 180 days in Thailand in any calendar year before you talk to a professional accountant. Opinions on the Internet won't help you if the tax man disagrees.
Nah. Philippines: poor infrastructure, crap food, poor health care and service (,per the blogs, never been there). Vietnam- no retirement visa. Ubod- supposedly way overcrowded. Thailand- only certain types of income taxes. Social Security exempted.
I'm happy in South Thailand.
Thanks for your thoughts. I have been to these places but you are entitled to you opinions. And Thailand is a dream come true, so no worries mate. :-)
@@VagabondAwake thanks for the great videos. Safe travels. Soon were going to Danang. Love Vietnam
Stay there, don't go to the Philippines or Vietnam please.
