I follow different channels on international travel and living, but I keep returning to watch your videos. Just a no drama no nonsense couple that has figured things out. It's always interesting to get some insights into your lives. You are so enterprising. Glad it's all working out for you.
Awesome renovation guys you actually gained a lot of extra space. Their is nothing worse in a kitchen than not having enough space,it's like working in a submarine. All the best to you both.☘️👍
The shop looks great. May the business grow even beyond the new space! The rental space is perfect. I am picturing myself right there and down for breakfast very soon before heading off to Kata Beach for the afternoons! All the best Richie and Maybelle.
Nice video as always guys 😊 good luck with everything 👏👏 For anyone super struggling with depression please let others know, there’s no shame in letting others know how you’re feeling, especially if you’re a male, go to a doctor now 🙂🙏🏼 god bless
I am so happy for you two to see that the extention is almost done. This is gonma be a great upgrade for sure and you really deserve it. I wish you all the best. Love you guys
Well done you two. Really so good to see your journey. Hope to pop in one day with the wife. Thanks to Richie for the beach walk. Low season but looks great. Can't wait to see the shop finished. My wife is just painting and putting new doors on our rooms we rent in our small village nong Khai. Thanks again. Spanners
Richie I was at your cafe the other day with my mother, wife and little ones. Being from the UK and living in Thailand It was great to enjoy some great tasting western food. My mother being over for her holiday thoroughly enjoyed her full english and cup of tea. Be back down soon Richie, all the best to you and Maybelle
Lovely walk along the beach, hearing the waves. Good chat. And great advice to others. The holiday let looks lovely. Very sad about Joe. Nice place to stop and eat your fruit. Amazing the difference in taking that wall out. Looking good. Have a great week
Hey Richie and Maybelle. Traveled to Phuket in April after being away 4 years . Stared reviewing your UA-cam’s prior to arriving April 27. Played golf, had great food and visiting friends at Phuket Has Been Good to Us Foundation. During my visit was heading to dinner and leaving Paton Beach and to my surprise see you guys walking. Look forward to seeing you on my next visit to Phuket. All the best.
Hi Richie and Maybelle, thanks for sharing and being so open, always great videos ,keep working hard it always pays off. RIP JOE . Cheers from Australia.
Your videos show the reality of living in Phuket.. And business ownership.. Having had a restaurant in rawai many moons ago I feel your pain... Back in September will try to pop in.. You were closed last year.. Airbnb looks great...
Well, well, well. YET ANOTHER goal kicked!!!! Good on you guys. Looks fantastic! I can't WAIT to come and stay there! CONGRATS and wishing you continued success. Kaz
Niice work guys thanks for sharing🎉 a daily routine is vital. Just like the seasons change feelings of being fed up its easy to forget "these things will change" equally when things are great and going well. "these things change too.. Dedication to daily 1% improvements like 1 extra press up a day.. Balances out in the end and allow us to feel great tuckin in to that well earned beer and evening meal.. My best.. ❤
Fantastic video mate. Fully understand how easy you can get down here for a few days!!! Then, you have to slap yourself and get a grip!!!. We did the same. Low season, low cash flow then spent shitloads on an extention 😮. But we look forward to reaping the benefits in high season. Best wishes to you both in your new venture. We always support you guy's 🙏🙏 onwards and upwards 😊
Nice surprise to see Tun-Ka Cafe. I didn’t know it was still there. I remember it from 1981 82 and 83. At the time I used to run the duty free shop, and photography on a small Soviet cruise ship. Every 2 weeks, over 3 years, the ship used to drop anchor in Chalong Bay. We headed round to Patong beach, which wasn’t built up at all. In the evening, with the cruise staff and entertainers, we’d head to Tun-Ka Cafe. The ship’s crew may have been the first Russians in Phuket.
Hi, thanks for your great videos! Want to retire soon in Thailand loved your condo tours especially the Homa one in Phuket town always wish the best for you and your wife.
hi guys. will be in Phuket from tomorrow, Wednesday, evening. will visit you at the cafe though also like to view the new accommodation or holiday lets. Heading from Queensland where it is slightly chilli bound for Singapore.
Hey Richie, 1st time I figured out how fto leave a comment on you tube (had to use phone cannot do from TV) Been watching you guys since very early....great job to both of you and thank you for sharing your experiences. Very happy your continued success has been your reward for taking that leap of faith. Very kool story...keep going my friends and I look forward to having breakfast and a chat...possibly if our times and schedules are able to mesh at some point. 1st comment ever for you tube...and wanted to wish u both HAPPY LIFE, LUCK, LOVE and PROSPERITY in the future. Tell Maybell you love her and give her an extra kiss for being a godsend from my perspective and what I can see. Take care folks. Sean: From Los Angeles California-USA
nice video of phuket and the flat for 1 k bhat a nite that's a bargain of 30.00 us dollars great new kitchen of maybell restaurants thanks for the upload !!!
Greetings from a U.S. American residing in central Europe. I greatly enjoy your video and your stamina when it comes to your work. Please keep the good stuff coming. p.s.: I was on Koh Phangan & Koh Samui in 1993 for a two months stay. I have great memories of that time.
Hi Ritchie and maybelle was great seeing you both in January, the rental looks awesome we cannot wait to see you both again soon your vlogs are always very informative ,keep up the good work kevin+ jenny pattaya
Winter in Canada is SAD. Seasonal Affective Disorder. Lack of sunlight and stuck indoors from October to April and it’s commonly mistaken for depression. Actually winter here is depressing so we leave for SE Asia and stay happy!
Good to see everything is coming a long well. We enjoyed our breakfast we had there on Wednesday 21st June 2023. We will be back again just with the kids next time. we are now back in Australia. I'm already looking at when we can go again. What phone app do you use for all your video editing?
Hi Richie & Lovely Maybelle Thanks for the Vlog interesting to hear you share your views on the season change and also mental disease or lows, this definitely a problem face by most people at some stage in your life. You 100% right especially when you retire to have a health hobby or interest I like to do some physical work even it’s for an hour or two and go for long walks and clear out the head of negativity. Like you I hate dealing with Government paperwork and bureaucracy I think we do. Hope your visa comes soon the Coffee Shop looking good as you say (Thai Time) you got to get use to it but maybe it’s a better way for your health I said ( Maybe HaHa ) Both of you done a great job on the AirBnB let looks great, Maybelle might want to go into Interior Design work in her spare time ( only kidding she got enough to do ) Very proud of you both you don’t get nowhere without hard work. Keep up the great work Cheers Irish Paul
Sharing is caring brother I agree 👍🏻 Will come to see you guys soon in December. Always enjoy your videos and the sharing haha . Take care and keep the videos coming.

Hi Richie, nice to see you tying up all the loose ends . The coffee shop looks amazing. I’m sure you’ll get more custom, especially if you open up in the evenings. That Plank steak looks amazing. Can you tell us the restaurant you took Stephan too. Thanks
I'm quite sure I saw Maybelle hit her spice limit there. Some huffing, wafting and water drinking. Nice to see even the accustomed have their limits. It has me wonder how natural selection has us still wafting our face, when the heat is on the inside.
If I see your Video 2 hours before, I would have booked that amazing place. Unfortunatly I can not cancel my Agoda from 6 - 11 July at Kamala. But we will come for a coffee
Come stay with us in Kata Phuket follow the link: www.airbnb.com/h/maybelleshouse
yes its maybelle's house, under her name, not under yurs, the risk of buying land as a farang, nice place though
yes...
❤❤❤

Depression is massive in the UK currently. My country has changed beyond recognition, i can’t wait to move to Thailand to get away.
It's not any better here if not worse , just we don't talk about it all the time like in the uk
What our government wants in uk
Nice video as always guys 😊 good luck with everything 👏👏
For anyone super struggling with depression please let others know, there’s no shame in letting others know how you’re feeling, especially if you’re a male, go to a doctor now 🙂🙏🏼 god bless
I am so happy for you two to see that the extention is almost done. This is gonma be a great upgrade for sure and you really deserve it. I wish you all the best. Love you guys
