I think a 20 year anniversary video of the Tsunami should be a big December priority. Take us to some local survivors, because all we ever hear about are the tourists, and there are thousands of local stories to be documented. I'd also like some wildlife videos. Go herping for snakes with David Frohlich in Hua Hin, and do an episode about him.
I won't say that 'your videos got me to move to Thailand,' but I WILL say that your videos did make moving here a LOT easier to make happen once I did. And I thank you for that.
Chris, my family and I are big fans. I'm an expat in my late 20s who moved here solo and works in Bangkok now. I was recently visiting my family and we watched your last video "A Thailand Story You Need To Hear"- it was by far our favorite video of yours. We discussed how documentary style videos really suit you- and how amazing it was that you put an amazing story of hope in the spotlight. With your platform and love of Thailand, you could do a lot of great work here helping out those who need it most.
Wishing you and your lovely wife a smooth move to Samui. You guys touched many lives with your videos, especially the Christmas celebration at the orphanage's and special schools and the food drives you helped organize during Covid. Thanks for all the joy, educational, and entertaining videos. Cheers.
Thanks Chris for the update - you have been missed. Make videos that provide you with joy and love! No matter what, I will be watching. Can't wait to see the moving to Koh Samui video. What a beautiful place. All the best.
Chris, you were one of the few UA-camrs I watched that made me decide to visit Bangkok and Thailand. I live in the Philippines but really want to make Bangkok a home too at least part of the year. I thank you for your videos, your time, your dedication, and your undying love of Thailand.
I want to say the best video you ever made in my opinion you weren’t even in. It was the video where you followed the journey of the young teacher as she went up to the remote village where she teachs. You showed the struggles of her life that she faced with determination and a wonderful sense of humour. When i saw the new building that a charity had supplied for her to stay in compared to the old building she shared with rats and snakes there were tears in my eyes. I thought it excellent of you to take a back seat and let the story tell itself. Perhaps you could use this channel to have people who don’t have the subscribers to supply you wonderful videos along the same line. You of course would decide the suitability but it would be fantastic to see more videos like that, than another condo pricing story, not that those aren’t useful.
Retired! Don't Give Up. That was National Geographics level. What i would give to be one of those contributing, sharing my content. My channel is just getting stated haven't got that hundred subscribers yet 28 to go , channel will center on living in the northern provinces of Thailand and the culture of of the people. Right now going through my first six months will have 40 videos by the end of that and take up from my new home in Phrae Province, with no shortages of sights to see and people to learn from. I actually hope to eventually meet Chris and persuade him to maybe allow me to contribute to his Teenee App.
You come back stronger. Take care for your life. Grettings from Norway.

Chris, as a regular watcher on your channel, I sincerely appreciate the update. And a HUGE YES, you have positively impacted so many people with your videos. I am so happy to hear you will continue and I will be in Thailand about the time you start back up. And another HUGE YES, you were a major factor in my decision to retire in Thailand, so thank you! Enjoy the break and give that sweet wife of yours a BIG hug.
My partner and I absolutely love your videos. You’re funny and informative and what you’re presenting feels incredibly genuine. Thank you for making us feel that retirement to Thailand from Cardiff in the UK is completely possible for us. Glad you’re better than ok!
Mate! I'm very happy you are coming to Samui where I live now. YOUR videos and what you did for the thai community was amazing during their hard times - I'm a fellow youtuber and can't wait to see you on samui !
Your quirky, left field vids have surely been missed Chris having brought so much joy and laughter. Wishing you and Haley a safe and wonderful transition to the land of Samui and what would we like to see moving forward...as someone noted below, what ever brings you joy and a smile to the dial...in only a way that Chris Parker can. 🙏
Hi Chris. Greetings from Sydney. I love watching your videos. Keep making them please. Your talent in influencing other people to come to Thailand and to try and see if that will inspire them to move there permanently deserves a very big "Thank You" and not only for all your free and practical advice but also for a very valuable information of the whole process of moving there. Wishing you all the best in your new endeavours.
I’m Thai living abroad and love watching your videos. You make educational content fun. I think anyone can make videos but having a conversation with your viewers is a skills and you’re awesome at it. I can listen to you all day. Looking forward to your next one.
Excited for all the changes for you Chris, hope you get some well deserved rest/retirement and will continue to be there for any upcoming video. Love the work, thank you
Happy to hear an update from you Chris and happy to hear of your big move, you both deserve it. I was in Thailand not to long ago hoping to run into you but now I know why it didn't happen hahah. I hope to see your upcoming videos where you utilize the Thai language and to see the reaction of Thai people hearing you speak. It's always a good feeling when I was there and spoke Thai I felt that I got more praise from Thai people for doing so and just by attempting to speak their native tongue it really went a long way. Your videos are some of my favorite Thai videos you really show a passion and love for the country which why it always brought me back to this channel and it always will. I still watch videos from the past cause it really puts a smile on my face and always pumps me up to head back ASAP. Take care Chris hopefully when I go back I'll run into you in samui and can mark it off my Thailand to do list. Kob kun mak karp Chris 😊🙏✌️
Chris you helped me stay sane during Covid period and working from home. Loved your energy and your videos. Wish you and the family well. I'm 12 months away from me going back to Bangkok for a holiday but will be thinking of you.
Awesome Video Chris! My advice on videos is to stay the track that you did with the Scholarship program. I am either one of the 4 you mentioned, or a 5th. Great Job and Thank You Chris!
Chris. I have to say your videos are the ones that brought me to Thailand I've been here 9 months I've visited a place in Rayong where they take care of the kids and the older people who are challenged. It's a wonderful thing to be able to give back and help, and it's a wonderful thing what you do. Pad Krapow in space, and the Christmas party with your mother and father, fantastic videos, your giving back with a sense of humor is so genuine and caring . You're Blessed keep up the good work.
We were wondering what happened to you! Your videos have been an inspiration to us. We have been watching your videos over the years with much anticipation. You inspired us to take a trip to Thailand in 2022 and 2033. We've been to Bangkok, Pattaya, Chiang Mai, and Hua Hin. And if not for the new tax laws we would be retiring there. We are hoping to go back this winter, though age is catching up to me. For someone who has previously only been out of the US twice in my 69 years on the planet, your videos gave me the only real peek at Thailand. You have no idea how helpful your videos have been. We certainly understand why you are taking some time to smell the roses.
your content it on point! for the future, more Cinematic B roll with meditative and contemplative vibes. Im sure anything you make will be great and thank you for all the videos youve made so far! love them all
Sounds like you have been very busy but so worth the effort to learn thai. Good luck with the move, I hope it goes without problem for you. I have my flight tickets at last, leaving the uk 24th sept. First stop, extended family in Penang for a couple of months and then coming across the border to settle in Hat Yai in late november. wish me luck. You Tube content is very time consuming but I certainly appreciate every video of yours that I see.
I thank you for all the videos you have posted in the past. They were VERY informative and fun to watch. I understand that YOU are also retired and probably need a break from video posting, too. 😊 Time for YOU TO ENJOY RETIREMENT also. We only have so many trips around the sun, as you say.... So if you see something along the way worth passing along, then by all means! Thank you 😊😊😊
You look so healthy and I swear you are growing younger as well! Have been a follower pretty much from the early days. Good luck on your upcoming move and look forward to any videos you produce.
Hi Chris! I've always enjoyed your GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY videos. Thai people are the kindest and warmest people on earth and it's so nice to see them get something back for their hospitality.
We love you Chris, please don't stop making videos. Your Channel is the reason why I am trying to move to Thailand and retire. My favorite video is the list of 25 things to do in Bangkok featuring Mark Wiens. Overall your videos are so much fun and relaxing and they're all my favorite. The information you present for those of us Yanks who are considering moving to Thailand is incredible and a wealth of knowledge. Retirement is coming and I now have all the information I need to make it happen. When I meet you in person, you LEO and I will have a great time! Please take care and say hello to Haley. THANK YOU!!!! ♥
You made my family's vacation to Thailand an exponentially richer experience. Thank you and always, always take time to take care of yourself and what you need to do. We'll be here when you come back!
I guess I've been one of your first followers if not subscribers (can't remember when I subscribed) when you were doing push-ups in Koh Samui, and I remember this video by the lake in Lumphini. I've been binge watching your videos a lot and you've inspired me launching my channels. But then, as it often happens, I started watching more other UA-camrs, stopped being part of the BOD, and just kept an eye from time to time on your videos... And I agree with you, "A Thailand Story you NEED To Hear" is one of your best videos ever, with the "Day in the Life of a Thai Street Food Vendor". I totally understand why you'd like to ease up on the accelerator now. Last week I was seating by Bang Rak beach, watching the sun set, not far from Moonstone, and I was thinking to myself: "if I were Chris Parker, I'd cool down a little, and spend much more time in paradise, enjoy the simple pleasures of life on Samui." I wish you and Haylee all the best!
Greetings Chris, thanks for the update and all the best to you and Hae Lee in your move to the mansion on Samui, great choice. Fah’s channel is on spot on as she’s doing an excellent job as a Thai instructor.-master teacher. Yes, Adam Parker channel is amazing. Thanks for sharing King of Thailand by way of Canada.
Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $8,000 and got my payout of $270,500 every months,God bless Christy Fiore 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..
I've always wanted to be involved for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me. Although I have watched a lot of UA-cam videos about it but I still find it hard to understand
Video title: Why I stopped making videos. First 30 seconds of video: I haven't stopped making videos, only slowed down. Clickbaity titles have destroyed UA-cam the last few years so unfortunately this is another channel I have now unsubscribed from. Farewell, you were good once! 😡😡😕
Literally my exact thoughts. Used to love this guys videos but then it just became flat out lies every single video. Clickbait. Almost insulting and manipulative. As if he’s farming for an emotional response from his simple viewers and it seems to have worked. This guy lives the dream life and has the nerve to try and pull this bs lol
Thanx 4 the update man.. I Actually looked for new video's on your channel, because i Somehow hadn't had any notifications for 2 months!! All the best with your next endeavor and Thank U, 'cause i enjoyed watching all of your video's.. Greetz from the Netherlands!
Found the channel whilst researching my second trip to Thailand. Video on Bangkok so helpful and I knew exactly what to do when I arrived at the airport 😂 - am in Phuket right now and you know what 5 star boat tour company we will be spending a day with. Love your videos - they are full of heart, fun, real (not posy Instagram style bs) and add so many layers to a travel experience. Travel can be superficial (and that’s OK if that’s what you want!) but if you love to travel and dig in a little deeper your videos manage to capture some of the spirit of this beautiful place and its people. I love Koh Samui and can’t wait to see what you get up to next. Thank you 🙏
Watched you through covid ,you are no.1 chris you got me to live here 2 years ago thankyou for giving me that push and my new life my children now have free holdays to thailand im pratamnak i love it here as my base take care of yourself 😊
You be you Chris, your videos are always entertaining and good to watch. Great content and always very informative. Looking forward to the island life style videos that are coming soon. Take it easy my friend. A fan from New Zealand :)
Since you asked, I really enjoy the videos you have done that show people doing great things, acts of kindness, donating to help students, etc. The documentary style videos, etc. Those are great!
I'm a new subscriber and will definitely check your recommendations. Your 25 best places to visit got me hooked. And I really enjoyed how you do your videos. They are so authentic. Don't stop please. Maybe take a rest, but don't stop.
Your videos make a difference in my views on Thailand and thank you. Your video on Thai Visa was a great one. Keep up the good work and may your adventures in Thailand will be an exciting one.
Glad you will still be doing videos! I have a lot of catching up on those videos you've already made. I was curious how the police feel about foreigners. Also curious about golf there. What about Craft breweries? I've had the Singha not bad! Thanks Chris! Interested in Samui now.
Hi Chris , make videos you enjoy and get the most out of , all your videos are good , you promoted Thailand and helped the needy back when the world was in a bad place with Covid , that is why I watch your Chanel , that’s why I’m in the process of starting my Chanel , it’s all about Thailand as well , you inspired me to also promote the amazing country Thailand is , get people to know Thailand , visit Thailand first time but also get them back again and again , it’s been 2 years of research and we head over on the 13 September for 5 weeks trip , in Samui October 3 rd for a week , would love to catch up for 1/2 hour and a chat ,and a ice cold beer , love your work Chris. Cheers
Chris! Thanks for the update. Ive been bingeing UA-cam about Thailand, and other travel channels, and was wondering where you went, but truthfully, I'm still researching whether to make Thailand or Panama my retirement home. Of course, I'm going to travel to both countries as househunting trips. Your previous videos were a wealth of info. and helpful in people's decision to move, and how to do it. From one Canuck to another, have a good one!
Thanks for all of the suggestions. We’re in Bangkok for the next couple of days & finally got to try the Pad Krapow-Amazing. I’ll keep following & enjoy your retirement & next chapter.
I‘ve started watching your channel not long ago. I like the way you did coz i can feel sincere and lots of informations. Hope you enjoy the living in Samui and hope you will have time to make more good videos again.
Best of luck to you in your language challenge and I hope your move and transition smooth and pleasurable. Thank you for all your informative videos as you have been a shining light to the blissful life in Thailand. Enjoy yourself and hope to see you in the future when you feel the time is right to see your positive spirit glow in your videos. Be well my friend.
Time to do YOU brother.. embrace your new challenge and congratulations on your move to the island. We will always wait on your vids... Stay blessed, remain humble.. thank you
I love the channel. I’m traveling in Thailand all of July and the main reason will be to train Muay Thai and see fights at all the different stadiums. Muay Thai gyms all have their own unique flavor in all the different provinces and a lot of the gyms are run by world famous coaches and fighters. I know you don’t train, but I still think it would be really fun to watch you learn about Muay Thai by traveling around and talking to all these legends. They are all super nice and usually hilarious! You make the best videos so all us fighters would love it :)
Almost certain I was one of the first 100 and almost certain I’ll be one of the last 100 based on my age being 34 haha…. Been to Thailand many times because of you!!!! Based in Australia but live pay check to pay check so I’ll holdiay/vacation and visit spots solely based on your videos!!! I appreciate you!!! From an Australian to a Canadian!!! I don’t earn much but for what I can save and then afford to travel once a year for 5-7 days or so it’s always Thailand and all because of you! I appreciate you! Please don’t stop ❤
Hey Chris. Appreciate your candor. Life happens and certain things just aren’t as important right now. Totally get your situation. Hope the move to Koh Samui with your wife goes well.
will miss you your the reason ive been researching thailand for a visit and maybe a life change thanks for all you do waiting to see you in september good luck
really happy to see your ok. I have really missed watching your videos I think I have been watching you when you only had a few 100 subs I love Thailand just as much as you and will hopefully make the move very soon to living in Thailand
Thank you for all the videos over years! They helped my wife and I loads during 2020-2022 as my company wanted my wife and I to move to Thailand to start operations for our new facility near Bangkok. You made our move so much easier and we binged so many of your videos during that time. We have since moved back to the US but I come back to Thailand for at least 2 months every year. My wife misses it a lot and I’m hoping to bring her back soon. She unfortunately only got to experience Thailand during peak COVID.
Gotta love ya Chris ❤ My husband and I just enjoy watching your videos! We were beginning to wonder whatever happened to you! Thanks so much for keeping us posted🙏🏼Wishing both you & Haley all the best & love your Tenee App😉
Takey our time and relax while moving to samui, our most loved place. Your videos were always very informative and enjoyable to watch. As a none native english speaker, i understand you very well. Keep up the very good work. Greetings from vienna, austria.
Hey, I just started a channel in Thailand. I really like your content and hope I can catch a break at some point. It’s a lot of work and with little payoff it’s tough to stay motivated. It’s great to learn more about Thai language and culture I wish I had the time to do so. I know the dedication it takes as I’d worked as a foreign language teacher for years. Good on you for connecting more with the culture and bringing your family along with you to Thailand.
Hey Chris, you have made some amazing videos. Through you we have delivered food parcels, seen how scholarships have helped young people to thrive. You have taken us into BKK and the islands. We have experienced all manner of Thai food and you have taken us with you all because you love Thailand. We have not been able to get back to Thailand as much as we would have liked over the last few years so your camera has given us a window into Thailand. Keep well and take time out to enjoy life. It’s how we keep going. Cheers Ian
You are one of the few UA-camrs I subscribe to and follow. Thank you and your team for the videos over the years. Always enjoyable and informative. Good luck on your move to Samui. Love from London, England.🙏🇹🇭🇬🇧
Thank you so much for this update! You and your videos have changed my life. My wife and I were already worried…. Please keep us informed about your life and about life in Thailand. We look forward to being part of your life on Samui. Please keep us updated... All the best to you and your loved ones!
Your content has definitely changed over the years. But definitely enjoyed. Nothing will ever be like the beginning as times and circumstances change. Appreciate everything.
Your videos have really helped me take the plunge. I will be in Bangkok for the first time in my life on July 1st. I am also making a trip to Chiang Mai. Thank you for all of your hard work. Your videos are amazing. They are so helpful. Any video topic is good. I really like the videos showing us how to get around and what to look for. Your "first hour in Bangkok" video in the airport is what convinced me to make the trip.
I am so glad you are all well. I won't lie I will miss your videos. Currently participating in the Thai Challenge and Fah is wonderful and inspiring. Thanks for helping many of us to stay motivated throughout the situation and keeping us positive. I will look forward to see more content as you have time and good luck in all your journeys.
I signed up for TLC in May, but I haven't started yet since we're preparing for our move to Thailand in a couple of months. I'm looking forward to it. Glad to hear you are doing well. And loved the video of you 3 on the TLC video.
Im moving to thailand because of you!!! Single mom with 3 kids, 4 fogs and 4 cats arrive august 21!! All because of you!! I cannot thank you enough.

WOW! I thought thai and interpol caught you in a pedo ring!

I'm interested but a little....lot scared....lol
คริส ในฐานะคนไทยที่อายุใกล้ๆกับคุณ ผมอยากบอกว่า ในบรรดาช่องชาวต่างชาติ ช่องของคุณเป็นอันดับ1 สำหรับผม ผมได้ติดตามคุณมานาน และได้เห็นคุณทำอะไรหลายๆอย่างเพื่อคนไทยและสังคมไทย ผมต้องขอขอบคุณมากๆ และจะเป็นกำลังใจให้คุณเสมอไป 🥰🥰🥰
I won't say that 'your videos got me to move to Thailand,' but I WILL say that your videos did make moving here a LOT easier to make happen once I did. And I thank you for that.
How did new tax rules affected your finances?
Chris, my family and I are big fans. I'm an expat in my late 20s who moved here solo and works in Bangkok now.

Thanks Chris for your wonderful videos. I feel I’m in Thailand when I see your videos. And good job being a great uncle ❤
Excited for all the changes for you Chris, hope you get some well deserved rest/retirement and will continue to be there for any upcoming video. Love the work, thank you

Chris you’re amazing! You are the reason I made it thru the pandemic and dreamed of moving to Thailand 🇹🇭!
You have been one amazing advert for Thailand.

First stop, extended family in Penang for a couple of months and then coming across the border to settle in Hat Yai in late november. wish me luck.
You Tube content is very time consuming but I certainly appreciate every video of yours that I see.

Awesome! Disappearing to go better yourself by immersing yourself in a language! Glad to see you are rockin behind the scenes!
We’ve missed you
The very best of luck with your move. Always watching your great videos from Yangon. Appreciate with all your hard work and great videos.
I always love your videos, Chris thank you.
You look so healthy and I swear you are growing younger as well! Have been a follower pretty much from the early days. Good luck on your upcoming move and look forward to any videos you produce.

We love you Chris, please don't stop making videos. Your Channel is the reason why I am trying to move to Thailand and retire. My favorite video is the list of 25 things to do in Bangkok featuring Mark Wiens. Overall your videos are so much fun and relaxing and they're all my favorite. The information you present for those of us Yanks who are considering moving to Thailand is incredible and a wealth of knowledge. Retirement is coming and I now have all the information I need to make it happen. When I meet you in person, you LEO and I will have a great time! Please take care and say hello to Haley. THANK YOU!!!! ♥
Missing your fun videos Chris!!!! looking forward to an update from Samui!
You made my family's vacation to Thailand an exponentially richer experience. Thank you and always, always take time to take care of yourself and what you need to do. We'll be here when you come back!
I guess I've been one of your first followers if not subscribers (can't remember when I subscribed) when you were doing push-ups in Koh Samui, and I remember this video by the lake in Lumphini. I've been binge watching your videos a lot and you've inspired me launching my channels. But then, as it often happens, I started watching more other UA-camrs, stopped being part of the BOD, and just kept an eye from time to time on your videos... And I agree with you, "A Thailand Story you NEED To Hear" is one of your best videos ever, with the "Day in the Life of a Thai Street Food Vendor".
I totally understand why you'd like to ease up on the accelerator now.
Last week I was seating by Bang Rak beach, watching the sun set, not far from Moonstone, and I was thinking to myself: "if I were Chris Parker, I'd cool down a little, and spend much more time in paradise, enjoy the simple pleasures of life on Samui."
I wish you and Haylee all the best!
Good to watch you again mate. Nice to hear everything is humming along. the only constant thing is change.
I realize it's pretty hectic, but a video or two about your move would be nice and fitting
Greetings Chris, thanks for the update and all the best to you and Hae Lee in your move to the mansion on Samui, great choice. Fah’s channel is on spot on as she’s doing an excellent job as a Thai instructor.-master teacher. Yes, Adam Parker channel is amazing. Thanks for sharing King of Thailand by way of Canada.
thanks for the update, did get a little worried but you do you Chris, you deserve to enjoy your life in Thailand. Il be there next year in Hua Hin
Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $8,000 and got my payout of $270,500 every months,God bless Christy Fiore 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..
Hello!! how do you make such monthly, I’m a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down of myself 😭 because of low finance but I still believe God
Thanks to my co-worker (Carson ) who suggested Ms Christy Fiore
After I raised up to 525k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my son's surgery….Glory to God, shalom.

I've always wanted to be involved for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me. Although I have watched a lot of UA-cam videos about it but I still find it hard to understand
I it, koh samui is such the “island life” , love it for you guys ALL THE BEST 👩❤👨 !
This is just a marketing video lol
Wtf did you watch
@@ControlTheGuh a marketing video
Love you Chris. Your channel is awesome , the light within you shows.
Video title: Why I stopped making videos.
First 30 seconds of video: I haven't stopped making videos, only slowed down.
Clickbaity titles have destroyed UA-cam the last few years so unfortunately this is another channel I have now unsubscribed from. Farewell, you were good once! 😡😡😕
Literally my exact thoughts. Used to love this guys videos but then it just became flat out lies every single video. Clickbait. Almost insulting and manipulative. As if he’s farming for an emotional response from his simple viewers and it seems to have worked. This guy lives the dream life and has the nerve to try and pull this bs lol
Thanx 4 the update man.. I Actually looked for new video's on your channel, because i Somehow hadn't had any notifications for 2 months!! All the best with your next endeavor and Thank U, 'cause i enjoyed watching all of your video's.. Greetz from the Netherlands!
Found the channel whilst researching my second trip to Thailand. Video on Bangkok so helpful and I knew exactly what to do when I arrived at the airport 😂 - am in Phuket right now and you know what 5 star boat tour company we will be spending a day with. Love your videos - they are full of heart, fun, real (not posy Instagram style bs) and add so many layers to a travel experience. Travel can be superficial (and that’s OK if that’s what you want!) but if you love to travel and dig in a little deeper your videos manage to capture some of the spirit of this beautiful place and its people. I love Koh Samui and can’t wait to see what you get up to next. Thank you 🙏
Watched you through covid ,you are no.1 chris you got me to live here 2 years ago thankyou for giving me that push and my new life my children now have free holdays to thailand im pratamnak i love it here as my base take care of yourself 😊
You be you Chris, your videos are always entertaining and good to watch. Great content and always very informative. Looking forward to the island life style videos that are coming soon. Take it easy my friend. A fan from New Zealand :)
Since you asked, I really enjoy the videos you have done that show people doing great things, acts of kindness, donating to help students, etc. The documentary style videos, etc. Those are great!
I'm a new subscriber and will definitely check your recommendations. Your 25 best places to visit got me hooked. And I really enjoyed how you do your videos. They are so authentic. Don't stop please. Maybe take a rest, but don't stop.
Thank you for the update! I hope everything falls into place for you! Safe travels to your new destination. See you soon!! Your channel is awesome!
Your videos make a difference in my views on Thailand and thank you. Your video on Thai Visa was a great one. Keep up the good work and may your adventures in Thailand will be an exciting one.
Good to see you back, congratulations. Thinking of visiting soon.
Good luck with the move and welcome (again) to Samui....hope to see you around town occasionally, especially as you venture south Samui.
Currently walking around On Nut, your videos are a great resource for anyone who wants to explore Thailand. Thank you!
Glad you will still be doing videos! I have a lot of catching up on those videos you've already made. I was curious how the police feel about foreigners. Also curious about golf there. What about Craft breweries? I've had the Singha not bad! Thanks Chris! Interested in Samui now.
Hi Chris , make videos you enjoy and get the most out of , all your videos are good , you promoted Thailand and helped the needy back when the world was in a bad place with Covid , that is why I watch your Chanel , that’s why I’m in the process of starting my Chanel , it’s all about Thailand as well , you inspired me to also promote the amazing country Thailand is , get people to know Thailand , visit Thailand first time but also get them back again and again , it’s been 2 years of research and we head over on the 13 September for 5 weeks trip , in Samui October 3 rd for a week , would love to catch up for 1/2 hour and a chat ,and a ice cold beer , love your work Chris. Cheers
Chris! Thanks for the update. Ive been bingeing UA-cam about Thailand, and other travel channels, and was wondering where you went, but truthfully, I'm still researching whether to make Thailand or Panama my retirement home. Of course, I'm going to travel to both countries as househunting trips. Your previous videos were a wealth of info. and helpful in people's decision to move, and how to do it. From one Canuck to another, have a good one!
Thanks for all of the suggestions. We’re in Bangkok for the next couple of days & finally got to try the Pad Krapow-Amazing. I’ll keep following & enjoy your retirement & next chapter.
Nice!! This is the update we all been waiting for ❤️🙏
I‘ve started watching your channel not long ago. I like the way you did coz i can feel sincere and lots of informations. Hope you enjoy the living in Samui and hope you will have time to make more good videos again.
Best of luck to you in your language challenge and I hope your move and transition smooth and pleasurable. Thank you for all your informative videos as you have been a shining light to the blissful life in Thailand. Enjoy yourself and hope to see you in the future when you feel the time is right to see your positive spirit glow in your videos. Be well my friend.
Time to do YOU brother.. embrace your new challenge and congratulations on your move to the island. We will always wait on your vids... Stay blessed, remain humble.. thank you
I love the channel. I’m traveling in Thailand all of July and the main reason will be to train Muay Thai and see fights at all the different stadiums. Muay Thai gyms all have their own unique flavor in all the different provinces and a lot of the gyms are run by world famous coaches and fighters. I know you don’t train, but I still think it would be really fun to watch you learn about Muay Thai by traveling around and talking to all these legends. They are all super nice and usually hilarious! You make the best videos so all us fighters would love it :)
Almost certain I was one of the first 100 and almost certain I’ll be one of the last 100 based on my age being 34 haha…. Been to Thailand many times because of you!!!! Based in Australia but live pay check to pay check so I’ll holdiay/vacation and visit spots solely based on your videos!!! I appreciate you!!! From an Australian to a Canadian!!! I don’t earn much but for what I can save and then afford to travel once a year for 5-7 days or so it’s always Thailand and all because of you! I appreciate you! Please don’t stop ❤
Hi Chris, I can imagine so thanx for all your effort on making awesome films and I see you in KS. All the best to you and H
Hey Chris. Appreciate your candor. Life happens and certain things just aren’t as important right now. Totally get your situation. Hope the move to Koh Samui with your wife goes well.
You do you bro, glad you are doing ok and happy to hear about the future move! Much respect bro!
will miss you your the reason ive been researching thailand for a visit and maybe a life change thanks for all you do waiting to see you in september good luck
I know the feeling on getting 100 subscribers!! I think that was about when I met you in downtown Toronto. You done amazing. Good luck with the move!
Admirable choice and Integrity is key. Keep your life balanced by doing what ever it is that makes you smile and true to your path.
SW Ontario proud
really happy to see your ok. I have really missed watching your videos I think I have been watching you when you only had a few 100 subs I love Thailand just as much as you and will hopefully make the move very soon to living in Thailand
Thank you for all the videos over years! They helped my wife and I loads during 2020-2022 as my company wanted my wife and I to move to Thailand to start operations for our new facility near Bangkok. You made our move so much easier and we binged so many of your videos during that time. We have since moved back to the US but I come back to Thailand for at least 2 months every year. My wife misses it a lot and I’m hoping to bring her back soon. She unfortunately only got to experience Thailand during peak COVID.
Gotta love ya Chris ❤ My husband and I just enjoy watching your videos! We were beginning to wonder whatever happened to you! Thanks so much for keeping us posted🙏🏼Wishing both you & Haley all the best & love your Tenee App😉
Takey our time and relax while moving to samui, our most loved place. Your videos were always very informative and enjoyable to watch. As a none native english speaker, i understand you very well. Keep up the very good work. Greetings from vienna, austria.
Hey, I just started a channel in Thailand. I really like your content and hope I can catch a break at some point.
It’s a lot of work and with little payoff it’s tough to stay motivated. It’s great to learn more about Thai language and culture I wish I had the time to do so. I know the dedication it takes as I’d worked as a foreign language teacher for years.
Good on you for connecting more with the culture and bringing your family along with you to Thailand.
Hey Chris, you have made some amazing videos. Through you we have delivered food parcels, seen how scholarships have helped young people to thrive. You have taken us into BKK and the islands. We have experienced all manner of Thai food and you have taken us with you all because you love Thailand.
We have not been able to get back to Thailand as much as we would have liked over the last few years so your camera has given us a window into Thailand.
Keep well and take time out to enjoy life. It’s how we keep going.
Cheers
Ian
You are one of the few UA-camrs I subscribe to and follow. Thank you and your team for the videos over the years. Always enjoyable and informative. Good luck on your move to Samui. Love from London, England.🙏🇹🇭🇬🇧
Thank you so much for this update! You and your videos have changed my life. My wife and I were already worried….
Please keep us informed about your life and about life in Thailand.
We look forward to being part of your life on Samui. Please keep us updated...
All the best to you and your loved ones!
Wonderful video. Wish you two safe travels and new start in Sumai
Your content has definitely changed over the years. But definitely enjoyed. Nothing will ever be like the beginning as times and circumstances change. Appreciate everything.
Your videos have really helped me take the plunge. I will be in Bangkok for the first time in my life on July 1st. I am also making a trip to Chiang Mai.
Thank you for all of your hard work. Your videos are amazing. They are so helpful.
Any video topic is good. I really like the videos showing us how to get around and what to look for. Your "first hour in Bangkok" video in the airport is what convinced me to make the trip.
Your videos gave me the inspiration to visit Thailand in March. Thank You for that! We’ll definitely be back!!!
Go Go Chris Go explore your new chapter. I will be here waiting for your videos as always. All the best to you and Haily. ❤
I am so glad you are all well. I won't lie I will miss your videos. Currently participating in the Thai Challenge and Fah is wonderful and inspiring. Thanks for helping many of us to stay motivated throughout the situation and keeping us positive. I will look forward to see more content as you have time and good luck in all your journeys.
Good luck with the move! Looking forward to the detail on what's good in Samui ❤
Thanks for the update-looking forward to seeing videos of life in Samui. Love Adam’s channel-great content!
Wow soooo happy for you Chris ❤ A well deserved break for yourself and family
Looking forward to seeing you back. It will brighten our darkening days here and make me look forward even more to our return visit in March '25!
I signed up for TLC in May, but I haven't started yet since we're preparing for our move to Thailand in a couple of months. I'm looking forward to it. Glad to hear you are doing well. And loved the video of you 3 on the TLC video.
