Went there as a backpacker about 25 years ago... hired a scooter to get around. In those days, very rare to see a westerner as all the westerners used to head to Ko Pha Ngan and Ko Samui... biggest surprise for me was how big it was... we stayed in simple beach huts... bathe in the sea, no electricity, etc... awesome. You're going to have a blast!
Koh Chang...Island in the Stream... the elephant island...lots of people crossing into the island from Trat...enormous amount of water and nature's best 👌 👍...the hotel room is nice & cosy at an attractive rates....the sea front is your swimming pool...really enjoy your moments 🎉😂
It's been a long long time not to be back to my hometown,things have totally changed especially Koh Chang,I'm super flabbergasted by the fact that Koh Chang has been developed a lot like this,thanks Serg.
I like Trat province. Directly in the area on the way to Cambodia There are mountains on the left and the sea on the right. The forest still looks intact.
4:34that Dan about Thailand , he is uk guy who run his youtube channel on that name with his russian wife and 2 kids!! I also subscribe him as well as ur channel!! What a small world coincidencely 😂👍
Lovely attitude about Island and its expenses. Koh Chang is nice and more relaxing.... nice for writers and digital nomad. 555 thks and your clip made me missing the holiday break there just before COVID19. Have good time sir. Pls. Take care.😊😊😊
Koh Chang, I have been a dozens of times but I have not explored the entire island. Locations you ve visited gives me more overviews of how to fish there next time I visit and giving me hints and details of the types of fishes to catch. The stringy long fish were needlefish 4:25. They re actually very boney but good eating. Even Japanese people dont know how to fillet them or cook them and are not sold often in big cities. You do need a very precise sharp knife if you want to eat them sashimi or sushi. They re also great live bait for fishing some bigger fish.
Haven’t been there for over 25 years. Things are very different now but in a good way. Always want to go back someday. Thanks for taking us there. By the way, I understand that Koh Kood that you might be going next has beautiful clear water also. You’ve also got to visit all the islands around Krabi/Phang Nga - down south on the Andaman coast. 😊😊
It’s interesting, you’re the third or fourth person to say that they haven’t been to this island for 20 years and how much it has changed. I’ve got two more videos coming.
Thanks for the video Serg. I loved Koh Chang when i went there last year and can't wait to return. This series will certainly be bringing back some great memories.
If you go to the island Run to the far left. It will be a homestay type accommodation. The price includes food and accommodation, not expensive. It's a fishing house.
Another great video. At the beginning, there was a truck that reminded me of your almost death crash. F'ing trucks that don't give a shit about other drivers, especially on scooters....insane!
Very good job and interesting your docs about Koh Chang . A question. If a 78 old or young couple want to go to Koh Chang for a few days , just to have a swim in clean water and not having to walk very far to have deeper water . And a sandy beach so that we do not have to break our legs on stones or garbage. Walking distance with Thai streetfood around. Free of noise pollution . Mr expert, you have any idea ? Thanks
I would recommend the beach of my second video. I’m sorry I can’t remember the name of it right now. But take a look. You can also open Google and just take a look at the hotels that are close to the beach. All of them are very close to food.
Although I am Thai, I have never been to Koh Chang. I did not expect it would be this big and beautiful! Mexican sunflower is definitely invasive species. My mom once had in front of her house in US. When she decided she didn't want them anymore, it was such a pain for her to get rid of them!. Koh Chang is now on my list of "must visit" now. Thanks Serg 🙏
@@LifewithSerg What is the name of the first resort or hotel that you stopped by? I like the vibe there. I will go there when I am in Thailand next year!
Hey Serg never been there, KOh Chang seems tranquil. Been to Koh Samui several times and James Bond island ande Kho Phi Phi. First trip was in 2003 year before terrible tsunami.
Because of koh chang being within somewhat close proximity to pattaya, I think it gets more tourism and a little wilder crowd. I'm just guessing because I've never been there either.
I covered what I carry in the last video of the Mae Hong Song trip. But, in essence, I bring a total of four T-shirts, four pair of underwear, three pairs of socks, one pair of shoes, one pair of shorts, one pair of swim trunks, and sweatshirt. Along with toothbrush and etc. Everything fits into my backpack, I will wash whatever I wear at the end of the day in the sink of the hotel room with shower gel, and then hang it out to dry overnight.
Wish i could go back. Have to work a few years until my pension then i will be there with bells on. Or maybe earlier on a two or three week holiday. Don,t know yet. Live the life Serg
The Island is beautiful and I want to rent a US army jeep. Coincidently, I saw a US army jeep pulling a massive trailer of hay on the road today in Khon Kaen.
growing up there.. been to koh chang multiple times. Definitely not the best...... compared similan, palawan, or even destin.... water is dirtier and skin gets itchy.

Thanks!
I like Trat province. Directly in the area on the way to Cambodia There are mountains on the left and the sea on the right. The forest still looks intact.
Yes it’s a nice province.
ARrr, Nice one mate, hope to see more of Koh Chang coming up soon!
I have two more videos from this island coming up
Thanks!
That is so kind of you. Thanks!
I was there last month, flew my drone along the very same small pier. Koh Chang is great island, try the quiet side it's certainly a different vibe.
I’ve got two more videos coming from the island, including one from the quieter side
4:34that Dan about Thailand , he is uk guy who run his youtube channel on that name with his russian wife and 2 kids!! I also subscribe him as well as ur channel!! What a small world coincidencely 😂👍
Yep. I talked to them. Nice people!

I’ll be there on Dec 21. Looks amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve got 2 more vids from this island.
Not eels mate. Baby barracuda😉Can’t wait to be there next month! Thanks for another great video! Enjoy Thailand krap!😊🙏💙🇹🇭🍀
Yeah, you’re right, they definitely did not move like eels. I’ve got two more videos coming from this island, hope you enjoy.

Fantastic Island with a great name ;)

น้ำทะเล💦ไทยสวย👍และใสมากเหมือนมัลดีฟเลย โรงแรม,รีสอร์ทก็มีมากและสวยงาม ฉันต้องมาเที่ยวเกาะช้างสักครั้ง ฉันชอบเสียงคลื่นชอบทะเลที่สงบสะอาดแบบนี้จริงๆ ชอบคุณ🙏นะSerg 🥰
Yes it is so beautiful!
Been waiting for this !!!❤
Looks like you are having a great time as well!
@@LifewithSerg if u can’t have a good time living in Thailand … then you might need to figure some stuff out 😍😂
Gotta love Koh Chang just a chill island not to crazy and not overdone...
Very chill. For sure.
hey hey, love your vids, always upbeat and positive. Keep it up!
It’s not always rainbows and unicorn farts, but I try to keep it positive.
@@LifewithSerg doing a good job buddy,🦄💨
I'll be there in a week so looking forward, been once before for 3 nights wasn't enough time so I've planned it better this time Round
Awesome. I’ve got 2 more videos from Koh Chang coming up.
Thanks for the video Serg. I loved Koh Chang when i went there last year and can't wait to return. This series will certainly be bringing back some great memories.
Awesome! Got 2 more videos coming up from Koh Chang.
Thanks sir for this amazing video, very informative.
Glad you liked it!
@@LifewithSerg I was enjoying it. I never been to that island. It convinced me to visit it.
I like how your videos are different in terms of showing getting to places on a motorbike compared to just being somewhere. Always enjoy your videos
Aww thanks! I try to incorporate some of the ride on the tours.
มีอีกหลายเกาะในไทย ที่สวยและน้ำใสกว่าเกาะช้าง โดยเฉพาะ เกาะทางฝั่งทะเลอันดามัน เช่น เกาะสิมิลัน เกาะพีพี เกาะหลีเป๊ะ ลองไปเที่ยวนะคะ
Yes there are about 800 islands. Will see more soon
Koh Kood in Trat is so beautiful if you are still interested in staying on an island.😊😊😊😊
It looks nice, but I think I’ll come back there with a girl, it doesn’t seem like it’s really geared towards single people
Thank you
You're welcome
3:21 Serge, himself and him 😄
Just the 3 of us.
Wow, I really want to move to live there. 🌊🌴🌳🌅🐠
It’s a nice island, but I could never live there. Even five days was a little too much. Lol
Love the video
Glad yon enjoyed it!
If you go to the island Run to the far left. It will be a homestay type accommodation. The price includes food and accommodation, not expensive. It's a fishing house.
Ah thanks.
Very nice hotel
Yes it was!
Another great video. The water looks really good. Wish I was there. Enjoy your time there!
It’s so nice here!
Loving your tour to Koh Chang.
Having a great time
Is a nice island to visit as I been there 10 years ago, look like it changed a lot 😊
So many people have mentioned how it looks so different since they visited it 10-25 years ago. Come back!
Nice trip
Thanks for visiting
Looks like a Vauxhall Viva, 1600? Good find.
Yah possibly!
Nice video Serg! Koh Chang looks beautiful, I’ll have to add it to my list
It’s nice for sure.
Ohhh! Trat is my hometown have a nice trip
I love it!
I would love to drive the old Jeep!!!
Yah those were cool!
Another great video. At the beginning, there was a truck that reminded me of your almost death crash. F'ing trucks that don't give a shit about other drivers, especially on scooters....insane!
Yeah I left that in on purpose. That guy was waaaay over on my side.
Soo Much fun😀😀
Great times.

It’s a great island. I have 2 more videos showing more coming up.
@@LifewithSerg What is the name of the first resort or hotel that you stopped by? I like the vibe there. I will go there when I am in Thailand next year!
Hi mate, are you thinking of visiting Nong Nooch Botanical Garden on your way home?
Been there several times already. Even made a video of it last year. One of my favorite places in the whole world.
Love koh chang, due to return in 2024 5th time. Great video
Glad you enjoyed it! I got 2 more from this island coming up.
Hey Serg never been there, KOh Chang seems tranquil. Been to Koh Samui several times and James Bond island ande Kho Phi Phi. First trip was in 2003 year before terrible tsunami.
I’ll let you in on a little secret, I really prefer Koh Samui.
Koh Samui is ideal not to too big not too small. Is beautiful and nice choice between resorts.@@LifewithSerg
Because of koh chang being within somewhat close proximity to pattaya, I think it gets more tourism and a little wilder crowd. I'm just guessing because I've never been there either.
Can you show how much clothing and how you carry your personal stuff when you do week long trips?
I covered what I carry in the last video of the Mae Hong Song trip. But, in essence, I bring a total of four T-shirts, four pair of underwear, three pairs of socks, one pair of shoes, one pair of shorts, one pair of swim trunks, and sweatshirt. Along with toothbrush and etc. Everything fits into my backpack, I will wash whatever I wear at the end of the day in the sink of the hotel room with shower gel, and then hang it out to dry overnight.
@@LifewithSerg thanks..ill go back through your videos! Appreciate it
Best place to stay on koh chang ist Kai Bae beacht. You have nightlife and you are in the middle of the west coast.
It is a beautiful beach, I would have to agree
😊😊😊 nice video
Thanks for the visit
Serg, how to find the first place for accomodation that you showed? The one 'for couples' with pool.
Thanks for a great video!
I put Google maps links for everything in description, please look there. It will be listed.
Been to Koh Chang & think I am going back later in 2024. That Vauxhall model is a Viva I believe.
Hope you have a wonderful trip
Wish i could go back. Have to work a few years until my pension then i will be there with bells on. Or maybe earlier on a two or three week holiday. Don,t know yet. Live the life Serg
You can do it.
Very verygood hi.
Thanks!
Kc resort is good.. you take a look
Ok
Did u know that was ‘Dan about Thailand’ 🇹🇭 on the pier with his family?
His wife mentioned that he had a UA-cam channel, but I did not know who he was
My favourite place in Thailand so far and i was there earlier this year. A lot of russians at that time
Yes, there were a lot of Russians there as well. I was one of them. Lol
@@LifewithSerg Notice I didn't say anything bad about Russians 😁 we actually had a nice meal with a lovely couple. 😁
I think having lived in America for 41 years, I consider myself more of an American than a Russian. I know you didn’t say anything bad. 👍
@@LifewithSerg You don't look old enough 😂🤣
I really do enjoy your videos and I do get inspiration from the trips you do 🙏
If the food is undercooked, you can complain and ask the waiter to bring it back to the chef and cook it again, or find solutions
Yes of course I know that. But after biting into half raw chicken, I don’t want wings anymore that day.
Hallo Serg,
where is this place & whats the name of the bungalow please? Greeting from Germany
Please look in the description of the video. There’s Google map links to all the places.
@4:35 That's another youtuber in Thailand. Don't you know him? haha
@DanAboutThailand
Yeah I talked to him. Nice guy.
hi friend do i need to know thai in order to live there
No, but it always helps to know the language.
Koh Chaaang Serg not Cheng ka เกาะช้าง I like the music
Great.
😊😊😊❤
😊❤️
What about mosquitoes mate?
I didn’t wear any bug repellent, and I didn’t get bit once
The Island is beautiful and I want to rent a US army jeep. Coincidently, I saw a US army jeep pulling a massive trailer of hay on the road today in Khon Kaen.
Yeah I had ti double back to see those jeeps.
It's Koh Chang, no sharp T and no æ in Chang. And Koh is koh, not cow!😊
Thanks for watching
Oh,ja! Super Video;) Jänner ich komme;)
I have two more videos from this island. I think you will enjoy it.
Le Serge Real Estate services... call us 24/7..
"We might not be good, but we are expensive "
Love it!
U never really own the land on koh chang. U never can get the chanute. Be carefully. Amazing place to visit.
I definitely enjoyed it, but I prefer Ko Samui a lot more
koh chang look like map sanhok in pubg
Ah yes
there are not many people.😒.
Not too many.
ทะเลยามเย็น+เบียร์ นั่นคือสิ่งที่ดีที่สุด
Yes it is!
growing up there.. been to koh chang multiple times. Definitely not the best...... compared similan, palawan, or even destin.... water is dirtier and skin gets itchy.
It’s not my favorite island, but I absolutely enjoyed checking it out
