Thank you for showing us around. Congrats on passing 14k Subscribers. 😃👍🏼
Thank you mate 👌👌
Looks a fabulous place to live
Yes, I'm surprised no one comes here. It's great having no tourists around though..
Hey, this is a first for me. Your first viewer, your first comment! What's my prize? 555. Thanks for taking us along on your journey, as always.
You win a box of high fives ✋. Hope all is well Randy 👍 Thanks
Nice1 Wayne. Really enjoyed that whilst having my work break in the cold uk. Take it easy 👍
Thank you buddy! Hope the rest of your shift goes nice and quick. I remember those days mate.
Lampang looks like a cool place to visit Wayne. Keep up the great videos!
Cheers Bob! It's a great town 👍
used to have the same tv in my bedroom , black and white , constantly changing the antena to get a better picture
seems like a nice place for a snack
Haha yes, I remember always moving the athena, it took ages and would miss programs. Thanks.
Hey Boo 😂
🤣🤣
Really nice little town. I have passed through there, but now it is on my list of must visits.
It's a great town, and another place that we all overlook. It's a perfect getaway from Chiang Mai .
Lampang is a peaceful, clean, beautiful city with no communication lines. 😊🫰❤️🎊🎉
Very true 🙏🙏
The reason why you got scanned in Central was because of the shooting in Siam Paragon Bangkok
I don't think so, they're not doing it in Chiang Mai . But could be something like that
@@avro9707 Not up to a few days ago they wasn't, but I been away for a few days. If they've started, it's only in the last few days. It must be to do with what happened in BKK if they have then.
BTW Wayne, have you considered getting an AirTag, Tile or Samsung Smart Tag for Lucille? Might be worth a bit of peace of mind.
No mate, I just pin 📍 where the bike is in Google maps, if I really need too.
@@WalkAboutWayne I was thinking more along the lines if someone took off with her.
@@jackoneil3933 I lock her steering at night, but I'm never worried to much of someone taking her. She's beat up aswell now.
@@WalkAboutWayne I should have considered it was Thailand. Around here anything with two wheels left alone for long is long gone.
farang Chiang Mai 🤯😅 hilarious mate I almost thought there's also a England in Chiang Mai 🤯
🤣🤣🤣 Funny
I get around is a song from The Beach Boys 1964
It sure is 👍
Brilliant Wayne! You made my day again! Very refreshing and a bit like stepping back to the last century. What you say at 8:45 about finding an unspoiled diamond lady is quite right. Many moons ago I met a very lovely one from Lampang that fit's the description, I often think I made a mistake not carrying on with her. I have some reservations about a lot of ladies from the south and Bangkok, but some of the most lovely and pure-hearted ladies I've encountered anywhere, especially the light complected doll-faced girls from the hills around Lampang and Lampun.
At 10:05 it was interesting see Japanese coffee and cake shop with the sign advertising cheesecake, I wonder if Lampang is a destination for Japanese?
Thanks Jack! Yes, some really nice pure Thai ladies from this area. You could find a really nice lady in Lampang. It's nice to be away from all the tourists for a few days. Thanks 👍
As far as English goes Lampang had US military where as Chaing Mai had very little US influence back in the late 60's early 70's...I was stationed in Lampang from 1972-73 and again in 1974-75... Cheers
Nice 👍
19:55 ... cool boys , thanks for your international introducing
👍👍👍
Hi Wayne, if you can check out BANTHI Lumphun District. Good Job!
Maybe, if I go back to Lamphun. I probably will, because Lamphun is one of my favourite towns.
Aeon has the cheapest atm ( cash point) fees
I never use a ATM but that's good to know 👍
My hired songtaew driver took me to that Central Mall....unrequested! He didn't speak a word of English. I spoke very little Thai. After an hour or two driving around, I wanted to stop for a meal. I was expecting a side of the road cafe or food cart. I pointed out several places along the road. He refused and indicated a better option.
He took me to the MALL!
Not my choice of eating establishment, but I forgave him. He saw a farang woman and figured that's where farangs want to go eat hahaha I get it, I understand, but sheesh! I wanted genuine standard Thai style but got...the MALL.
🤣🤣🤣 it was the same in my part 1, when I asked the Massage lady, where is all the best area to see things in Lampang?, she said Big C and Central Plaza 🤣🤣.
not what i was expecting, looks like a nice town :) i almost went to lampang for the climbing crag nearby but it rained out that weekend, i was expecting something much more rural.
Me too, I was expecting a dusty little town 🤣. It's a big town with lot's of shops. I really liked Lampang.
I gotta love those respectful amiable youth there. They were sportsters of some kind I believe. Like all kids, they're just out to catch some action, and so they find the famous "Walk About Wayne", casting his action, and we have an an action packed scene.
They were great youths, so friendly and they treated westerners like stars. Thanks mate
Nice one Wayne.
Your arsh is getting more celebrity treatment there than in CM. You may not want to leave. 😉
🤣🤣 The camera attracts people man.
the Central malls are lively all over Thailand Wayne.catching some aircon, seeing and being seen.
Not really in Chiang Mai some days buddy, empty during the day.
Was it just me, or were more people wearing masks in Lampang than Hua Hin and Chaing Mai ?
Yes, I would say Lampang love the mask more 🤣
If I told you something, you would probably not believe me. But I have a brother in law that lives here. My wife is Thai, and we live in Colorado, USA. So let me continue watching your video. And thanks for sharing, in fact I am going to share this with him, and my other relatives of Thailand. Thank you once again for this video, and take care.
Hi, that's great , thanks for watching, I hope you like the videos 👍
@@WalkAboutWayne I forgot to mention I have been to Lampang a few times, and I love it. The last time I was there was in 2020. Again thanks for the video.
So glad to see you enjoying it mate. It's been almost a year since I lived there, was like a lovely blast from the past seeing you walk about. We're in Chiang Mai now for the international schools but still make regular trips to the in-laws in Lampang. I've a feeling I know what hotel you were in from you saying it's right by Central and nice, you stayed at the Wiangklakor? Used to stay there too before I found my first Lampang condo, after I got married took a house in the old town with a big bit of land full of jack fruit, banana trees, coconuts. Really fond memories of Lampang! Hope to bump into you here in CM
Thank mate! Yes, I'm really liking Lampang , it's nice to be in a chilled town for a while. That's not the Hotel I'm in mate, but I'll be showing my hotel in the next vlog. Sounds like you had a good life in Lampang 👍
Well, I can see you're impressed and rightly so. Fine looking place with welcoming people. Perfect...
Keep them rolling, Wayne.
Thanks Denis, It's a good town mate. More on the way soon.
I noticed the street is very clean. Very nice.
Lampang is a very clean city.
does Chiang Mai still have the early midnight curfew?
You mean the covid curfew or in general? You'll find after hours places, no probs.
not the covid. just that I'm a night owl and it gets a little too quiet a little too early. going Thailand in dec not sure whether to go back too Chiang Mai. I do miss it though.@@WalkAboutWayne
🥰🥰🥰
🙏🙏🙏❤️
Take me to the shopping paradise 😂
Come 👍
Love your lampang energy man,you seem Totally invigorated
Thank you! Yes, I love being somewhere new.
Town looks interesting. I would go there
It's a great town mate
Hey Wayne, nice vlog mate i would consider the city as a holiday destination, it looks amazing mate. I would love to know what the accommodation prices are like for that aria and that shopping mal looks amazing to.
It's a nice city Brett. I have my hotel review coming up, I think I payed 400/500. I'm not sure on longterm places, buy they will be cheap.
It seemed like a good place to just lay back and relax on the occasions my wife and I visited. No bustle. Just what you need when you live in Pai 😂
This place is night and day different from Pai. Both chilled though, but in different ways 👍
Your making me miss Lampang Wayne!
Sorry mate 🤣. It's a nice break away from all the tourists
Yeah.... and I am in Pai. Overflowing with tourists @@WalkAboutWayne
For a town that has no tourists there seems to be a lot of English on the menus and shop windows etc. That thai toast looked lovely jubbly mate. I do like the buzz of being looked at by locals because they don't see westerners much, doesn't really happen in Chiang Mai as it's full of westerners
Yes, and loads of people speak great English, that's the biggest surprise for me. It's great walking around and not seeing any foreigners. I seen a few but hardly any around. I feel like a king in Lampang 🤣 Yes mate, it's a nice change from Chiang Mai
That's funny, your majesty 555 😂
Hi Wayne I thought the Thai tea toast looked nice but not what I expected Wayne it’s really nice and relaxed there mate
Wish i got down there during my 3 C.M. visits. Anyway, i may be a farang, but never "exposed" okay?
The girls know you in Lampang Robert, they said "when he come back" 🤣🤣
very cool wayne, love your vlogs, im an introvert and i can relate, just walking around soaking in everything around you enjoying life.
Thank you buddy! Yes, when I'm somewhere new is when I get the best energy.
Chiang Mai has gotten so much worse in the last 20 years so a city 20 years behind Chiang Mai sounds awesome.
I can see what your saying, yes. As much as I love Chiang Mai, it does get over run. It's so refreshing to be in a town with no foreigners.
Looks like a mini Chiang Rai / Chiang Mai - happy faces - I like it - nice work WW
Yes , it's like stepping back in time. I think the layout of Lampang town, is easier and more pleasant than CM and CR. It's perfect for walking around . Cheers Ant 😀
Looks great.
Really nice town man 👍
Hallo Wayne, how about nightlife in Lampang?
Not to much, couple karaoke bars, and a couple brothels . So I've heard 🤣
@@WalkAboutWayne Heard? I think you are there. Make some research for your fans.
diggin those pristine sidewalks 👌👍
Me too, it's like another world for sidewalks.
Nice stroll .. i wanna see more there haha
Thanks! More on the way 😁
Great video sir, a nice change from other malls crowded with loud annoying farangs.😆😆
Thanks man! Yes, it's nice not seeing any farangs around.
That area along the river is picturesque early in the day and before dusk too.
Yes, it's a nice spot down near the river.
Love this town. be sure to get to the sky temple :)
It's a great town 👍
The walks along the river are well worth it. If you walk down river from the swing bridge, you will come across a lovely park. If you cross the the swing bridge and walk the other way to the iron bridge, its also well worth exploring. The night markets are great. Not hectically busy, like CM. Also be sure to see the wooden temple (Wat Pra That Lampang Luang). Enjoy! Thanks for the great vlog, Wayne. Excellent stuff!
Looks a nice town there,that bo toastlooked a bit different
Very nice town. The Thai Tea Toast was strange, I had to try it .
Perfect
Cheers 👍
Lampang; loving their masks.
They love a mask 🤣
Great video man, was so nice see respectful young people. Looking forward to more of your Lampang videos.
Thanks man! The respect you get in these non touristy towns, is incredible.
