I am in Pai right now, one of my favorites in all of Thailand. The walking street is great but what I really like are the mountain views, this town is nestled among the mountains and it has an amazing atmosphere.
Travel mate, like this footage, the view 😯 remember that 360 point from another YT guy 555 Pai Canyon is so cool to see and visit mate, thanks for sharing 🙏 And as always, C Ya in the next one Chai, cheers 🙌🍻
Wow! Those views! Normally clouds mess things up, but these clouds made things more interesting! Thanks for the tip on going across the river for a hotel. We will be going!
Hello Chai great video white buddha the view is stunning. Pai is really a gorgeous village really enjoyed your journey will have to visit Pai. Hope you and Ilona having the best time. Take Care. I will be there for your premiere. flower for Ilona 🌹🌺🌷
Hi Sue 🤗 aw thank you! Pai is definitely beautiful. Only getting there might be a challenge if you’re going by minivan 🤢 there are so many curves! Worth it though 😃 awesome! Ilona received the flowers and says you’re kind 🥰 thank you and see you tomorrow 🥳
Hey Champ. Always a pleasure watching your videos. I remember visiting a hot spring site when i was in Chiang Mai many years ago. It was a memorable day. Excitement of watcing the 5-6 meter spouting water was great. I still remember the stink of the sulfur water and the boiling eggs also😅 Cheers!
Aaah haha yeah you can do egg boiling af the host springs as well sometimes 😜 it’s funny that the sulfur also smells like rotten eggs 😏🤓 thanks again champ! 🏆 almost weekend😃
Nice tour around Pai. Enjoyed that heaps. Would like to see some of the night life/live music happening but I guess you've already left Pai and back to Chiang Mai or elsewhere. Thanks for sharing champ :)
Ey Bobby, You’re right! Even the grocery store is selling it. I have to say I’ve only smelled it and had a good look at it. I use to smoke in my teenager years in the Netherlands but I haven’t smoked any weed for many years 🤗 it smelled good but it the weed I’ve seen here so far doesn’t look very strong. I hope it helps :)
@@Chai_Travel I'm sure the quality will increase once they get the first few legal crops done. I imagine the prices will be very little for weed in the coming months. Cheers.
Wow... great video... its been a pleasure seeing your channel grow. Makes me so happy to see you succeed at this... you we're so chill and a good guy when we hung out. Keep going... I think you're about to break out and be a top youtuber. Now get back to Pattaya pls... drinks on me :)
Nice one Austin! Haha yeah man 😁 it’s slowly getting somewhere. It must have been about a year ago when we met! I’ll definitely come down to Pattaya at one stage haha I’ll get the second round mate 😜 cheers!
The "big white Buddha" is at Wat Phra That Mae Yen - a few years ago the main wihaan burned down, which was a major shame. It's one of my favourite places to go and sit for a while. I always prefered the smaller temple building when going to offer my respects. Don't miss out on the reclining Buddha figure too. I have fond memories of when the Buddha was being constructed - to the side of the steps was a rail track to carry materials up to the top, and at the end of the day the workmen would pile into the little trolley and ride down (sometimes rather quickly!). I've never had to pay to access Yun Lai viewpoint - either it's a new development or they accept me as a local now (or they all recognise my wife as one of their old teachers and wouldn't dare ask her to pay) :D Likewise, never paid at the Hot Springs . . . I guess 20 years of part-time residence & acting as teaching assistant in the local schools has a few benefits :D
Hi Sameebah 😁 thanks for your little story there 😊 it’s nice to hear you’ve some nice experiences from this town. I actually had to miss out on the reclining Buddha this time but I’ll definitely go on my next visit thanks to you 🙏🏼 cheers 🏆
Chai! Last time I went to Pai was in 2007, I remember it was freezing cold during the night, but very nice vibe. I just saw the latest vlog of Forrest Lee and it really made me think: If I decide to come back to Thailand I will certainly look at Chiang Mai for a good option to live. Any area of Chiang Mai in particular you recommend to live?
Cheers mate! But back to Thailand? Did you leave or are you planning to leave? There are so many different cool areas. I think you should come here and check it out for yourself about a month and then decide to live somewhere for a longer term. It’s not so big as Bangkok so you’ll get a good idea of the different areas. I like Suthep area because there are a lot of younger people. I’m staying now in Sathapon witch is quiet local but close to the busyness. There’s a lot to explore “Exploring Chiang Mai” 😜
@@Chai_Travel Thanks for the information. Haha yes, I'm in Netherlands now for a bit. Rainy season is always a bit depressing, like winter time in Netherlands. As for exploring chiang mai, haha no, that won't happen but maybe I'll become your competition and will start a 'Exploring Travel' channel, but then of course I also need a small funky microphone 😜 haha, but no, in all seriousness, I've reached my goal with my channel (10k subs and some evergreen content people will always want to watch). So as for my current channel it's a done deal 😁 On to a new adventure and maybe a new UA-cam channel. Haven't figured it out yet.
@@ExploringBangkok perfect mate! Congratulations with your channel. I’m wondering what content you’ll going for. If it’s more about traveling I will definitely gonna follow you champ. Groetje!
i was at the bamboo bridge 1 month ago ,the temple at the end is the best part ,but beware of snakes ,i did not notice but my thai girl screamed at me ,watch out snake, when i was walking i almost kicked a snake ,i did not even notice but my girl did,5555 who knows if good snake or bad she said it was green
No way!? Haha I would take no risk and think it’s a bad snake 😱 it’s a nice place to visit and I’m glad you’ve been there as well Ian 😁 have a good one🏆
Ey Bobby Im sure you’ll able to find something for 3.500k per month for something basic. Wanna get some more comfort you’re looking at 6k+ I hope it helps 😁🏆
@@Chai_Travel That's fantastic. I'm planning on spending at least the month of November in Pai, probably much longer. I'm looking for somewhere quiet in the countryside just outside Pai. I'm really looking forward to exploring the area. Thank you. Do you have any accommodation recommendations?
Ey Viktor 🏆 thanks for noticing! I do film with another camera and I’m not color grading anymore with this one. I hope I can get away with it but green grayish look is also probably what I’m going for either. (I’ll just be using my new one now). Please let me know if the colors are bothering you if future videos as I might need to decide to start color grading the videos again.
I plain to visit Pai in a few months and plan to travel in the northern region but i don’t know how to ride a motor scooter 😭 do the people at the rental shops teach you or is it basically a sink or swim kind of thing?
Hey ey, they will explain you quickly if you ask them to, and many people ride without experience. In fact I learned how to drive as well like that (in 2011). I don’t think it's very safe to do though and I advise you to take a few lessons if you're able to do to. The Thai roads can be quite dangerous. Or, find someone (like a travel friend) with a lot of experience while you here. There are many friendly people in Pai

Perfect! Haha and it’s always a pleasure you know it. I hope you visit Isaan soon again 😁 stay champ 🏆
Hey Champ, yes we a picked a nice solid bungalow across the river last time just for a change, loved it.
Good on you Lars! That’s the way ;) I’m sure a place in town will also be nice though 😝 the other side is just even chiller 🏆
Awesome! Mae Hong Son province #1 👍🖖🙏

@@Chai_Travel I bet people are selling weed all over the place in Pai now that it is legal. Is the weed cheap there? Any good?

สามีฉันเคยเล่าให้ฟังว่า เขาเคยไปที่นั่นเมื่อ20ปีที่แล้ว สมัยเขายังเรียนมหาวิทยาลัย ปายเมื่อ20กว่าปีที่แล้วสงบมากไม่มีตึกหรือเซเว่นหรือร้านค้าและความทันสมัยใดๆ ชาวบ้านตั้งซุ้มเล็กๆขายของอยู่หน้าบ้านของตนเอง ฝรั่งเยอะมากไม่มีคนไทยไปเทียวเลย ฝรั่งพักอยู่ทีเป็นเดือนๆ เขามาพักผ่อน มาอ่านหนังสือ กินง่ายๆอยู่ง่ายๆ ขายขนมและอาหารแบบบ้านๆ เขายังติดใจกระบองทอด ซึ่งหากินที่ใหนไม่ได้นอกจากที่นั่น มันคือความทรงจำที่ดีมากเขากล่าว
ขอบคุณสำหรับข้อความดีๆ 😊 ฉันดีใจที่สามีของคุณมีความทรงจำดีๆ เกี่ยวกับปาย มันต้องเปลี่ยนไปตามกาลเวลา 🤗 ขอให้เป็นวันหยุดสุดสัปดาห์ที่ดีนะ

Did you know Jake Sparrow of Thailand 😏 He ‘s celebrity in Pai 😛

Lovely video. How cheap are monthly room rentals outside of the tourist area of Pai? Thank you.

Have you edited the video with a filter or color adjustment?
It looks dull and flat. Green looks gray-ish. Just compare to your insert from last year.
Ey Viktor 🏆 thanks for noticing! I do film with another camera and I’m not color grading anymore with this one.

No worries, if you like the visuals and feel the colors represent what you see with your eyes naturally.
Cool beans. Anyway I really appreciate your feedback 🏆 have a good one and hope to stay in touch

How do you have a video about Pai and not show the night Market?
I made a few videos about Pai. Are you ok?
Good commentary, Pai really is a great and unique place. Good to see you stopped wearing the silly mask on your chin. Thanks.
😂 haha sometime I still do but not from the 1st of July anymore 🤩 cheers!
