      We "slow travel" full time, and we're never quite sure how to answer people when they ask where we live. We usually just say that we're originally from Toronto, but we "live" wherever we are at the time. There are always negative people looking to bring you down, but it's better just to ignore them and keep doing what works for you. Cheers from Lisbon (where we "live" right now lol).

    Trevor and Anna, please ignore the negative Nancy’s… I like your honesty and state how you feel about where you are etc. nothing is ever 100% beautiful or perfect and I like that you share this with us as well as all the wonderful things. Please ignore the people who are negative as they are just unhappy people and do not wish to see others happy. Love your videos and keep travelling and having fun when you are not working.

      you need to check at each station of sky train there are plenty of condo's or apartments. try on nuch (on nut) get off from the station and keep walking. you should try all the sky train and underground train. on nuch, bang sue, sutthisarn, lad prao, sapan taksin etc.

    Bangkok is a good place to live. There’re several livable neighborhoods. Don’t get too panic about a PM 2.5 pollution which happens occasionally a short period of time just like other major cities and Thailand is working on it quite effectively. Millions of people lives there and still stay healthy. Enjoy your stay.

    - Thong smith is really good for beef boat noodle, they even have wagyu beef, you should try next time although it’s pricey.
    - Sukhumvit, Thong lor, and Silom are probably the most expensive area for leasing, I’ll recommend Onnut station onward, Ari station onward and Wutthagard station onward. They are a bit outside of middle of Bangkok but still easy for traveling.
    - About weather, it’s messy nowadays because of global warming and it’s not just Thailand but all over the world, please take care.

    You can’t please everyone all the time. People need to take what they enjoy and skip what they don’t. That’s life. I enjoy your videos and your realness. Your not actors, people should appreciate your real opinions. If someone visited on your fake always positive opinions of somewhere, then people would be disappointed in that. Being honest and real is far more important. And I think your always respectful and polite even when something or somewhere isn’t your favorite.

You two are the reason I’ve traveled so much more now. Do not change who you are because anyone can post edited videos of perfection that doesn’t exist. All that leads to is disappointment.

    While BMTA non-aircon red bus is very cheap at 8 baht, it is relatively hot in humid Bangkok all year round. For those Thais who live along Chao Phraya River, there is an alternative. You can patronize Chao Phraya Ferry Service at price less than 20 baht or more for the longest distance. Cash only for fare. The service started about 50 years ago, using diesel engine to propel the boat. However, starting in 2020 there is a new competition of modern aircon electric boat service at a flat fare of 20 baht for all destinations. MINE Smart Ferry accepts Visa/Master Card card or you can buy fill-in card. Cash is not accepted. There is also an aircon electric tourist boat for 30 baht fare. You need to purchase a ticket before boarding a tourist boat. There is also an open-air top deck on tourist boat if you choose to face the weather and have a better view of Chao Phraya River and its environs. For crossing Chao Phraya River to the other side pier, the fare is cheap about 5 baht. However, there is a free ferry service to cross Chao Phraya River to IconSiam and AsiaTique to shop/dine.
    BTW, there is also a boat service running along Saen Sap canal from the suburb to heart of Bangkok costing about 20 baht. It is much faster than the metro system for those who live near this canal which runs over 10 kms.

    This is just my own recommendation. Check out condominium called the politan rive in Nonthaburi province closed to bangkok, quite far from bangkok but easily come to the main city by mrt purple line ( about 30 min). You may found a surprise.

    I have seen other foreign UA-camrs showing their rental condos, very nice one bedroom or studio in good areas (much nicer than your hotel) and within walking distance to BTS or MRT for US$350 to US$500 a month. I think one of them was near Rama IX road and the other a little further to the east from Sukhumvit (forgot the name of the area). Sukhumvit is a high end area and the condo in the advertisement you were looking must be premium one. Also the fact that it’s a loft (two floors) made it wven more expensive.
    If you are really serious about condo rental in BKKa, you coul use an agent to help you find a good one within your budget range.

    Almost all dishess in Thailand if the food have to mix they'll mix the food for you or they'd serve many separate things but in only one dish just for you to decide you want all ingredients or you want just some but if they serve the food in seperate plate that's mean those food do not have to mix or that's the ingredients that not all people love.
    Thai poeple they love to eat soup as something to clear your mouth or to break the food taste and then eat another dishes so example if you guys order the noodle in Thailand there always 2 main base kinds of noodle to choose that you want weter noodle or dry noodle and then you choose kinds of noodle you want and if you ordered Noodle(water type) you'll get just 1 bowl of your noodle with seasoned soup but if you ordered the dry noodle most place would serve you 1 bowl of your noodle with 1 bowl of plain soup(no seasoned) for you to clear your mouth after main dish.

    Hi guys we follow you and live in Dartmouth so fellow HRM'ers, keep up the good work. If you decide to drop anchor somewhere did you divest yourselves of tiny home, condo or other property first so you are true nomads. My wife and I are both retired and spending 1 month in each in Costa del sol Spain and Algarve Portugal and loving it. Could easily live in either.

      Good to know! Portugal definitely interests us in a long term stay for sure. We have no plans to sell our tiny house or condo though 👍 - Trevor (ps: Hi Dartmouth! 👋)

    Monthly rent is more expensive than a contract for a year, sometimes you can find place that allow 6 months contracts

    I'd say you are traveling and exploring the world. "living someplace" is subjective.. For me.. Living someplace is when you pay taxes for that country. But Living some place for others may be staying an extended period of time and moving on but not paying taxes in said country. Either way you are living the dream exploring the world one place at a time. And we love following along though out screens.

      So appreciate that Nana! Totally can see how it can be subjective for sure 😀But there's a lot of folks (ex: snowbirds lets say) that 'live' down south in the winter for 6-8 months and don't pay 'taxes'. - Trevor

    The negative comment thing is totally true! We only just started our channel a little over two months ago, and so there's only really been three negative comments out of a few hundred, but those are the ones you often remember. Just yesterday, we had someone comment on a video telling us to "go home" because we were jokingly talking about the price of an attraction, and were discussing whether it was worth the money or not (the comment wasn't even from a local- all the comments from locals were highly positive). Had someone personally attack our appearance as well (we're both pretty tattooed). We've already learned, there's plenty of jerks out there who look for any reason to be negative. 😂
    As far as the "living" thing goes, we kind of have a "three month rule". I feel like when you've got a "base", you've got a local SIM, you've got local shops you go to for daily necessities..at that point, you're integrating and "living" in a place. If we're really just city hopping and not really settled in one spot, we don't count it. But everyone has their own definitions of what is living in a place, and what's not. 🤓

      Thanks guys! We'll check out your channel and if you're getting negative comments already you're well on your way with UA-cam haha. We get lots of personal appearance comments too and we are not tattooed at all (but kind of want some as of late) 😅 Keep on creating 🤙 - Trevor

      I'm really felt sorry about that my friend but as a Thai let me explain this problem, as this problem is not really a normal negative comments as I read on internet before because there are a lot of people got these problems too for a while especially the UA-camr that doing contents about Thailand even the Thai UA-camrs too and now people on internet they already founded out and it is because the people from the neighbor country that we having some stupid land and some culture problem with them and wanted our Thai people to be their people. And many of their people just use the social media to throw the hate speech and many of them even made their profile like people from the west just to come to bullies and it's already going seriously like countries the countries problem because they bullied even some Thai athletes like Buakaw and movie star like Tony Ja, I do not know what their people are thinking even their president of something already came out on the news since last month and said sorry for Thai people but their people seems like still not want to stop.
      Really apologize for these problems guys, hope you guys have a great time here in Thailand.

    Wow prices are up in Bangkok. I think it’s inflation and expats bringing the prices up. Local Thais can’t afford those prices.
