    I stayed on khao San back in the early eighties on my first trip to Thailand. Boy has it changed.

      The whole world has changed since the 80's. But Khao San is still crazy. That's a good thing. It could be another mall today.

    Boon was leaving you in the dust. lol. The band at the Suk Sabai was pretty fun, Ramones followed up by the Arctic Monkeys. Love it. Boon shows you the video to let you know what’s gonna happen if you step out of line,lol. Thanks for another fun video Joe.

    It's good to know about that soi that's not Khoasan Rd. I spotted a few oldies, so I wouldn't be alone. Cheap beer and a good rock band too. I'll check it out. I'll be in Bangkok after my visit to China. I'm sweating heaps already🥵😅

    Khao San road reminds me when my friends and I used to do TJ nights in the 90's when we in our 20. I grew up in Southern CA, driving to TJ the bars would shake your head while pouring tequila and make sounds with a whistle😂. Im too old for that now early 50's. Im like you and prefer the laid back bars playing soft music. I guess I'm an old guy now😅

    • @EagerExpat

      Ya man, I did my high school years in TJ too. I used to live at Iguanas at Pueblo Amigo. Nirvana, Janes Addiction, Chili Peppers and a 100 more great bands. I still like a good loud band, but the EDM isn't my thing. Maybe the laughing gas helps. I'll stick to the side streets.

    I have avoided Khao san road every trip so far, but this time we will stay close; about 10 minutes walking distance from our hotel. I guess I will have to make a quick visit and then retire back to Rambutri (?) road. It looks a little bit more laidback :)

    There are some great bars that are much more chill on the streets bordering Khao San rd., all the vendors ruined it for me, I heard they tried to get rid of them and they all wouldn't leave so they gave up. Like you, I think it is for the twenty something crowd.

    Qq, it's getting hard to get brand new £50 notes from local banks, used notes are available, though. Do you think this will be a problem when exchanging at Superich, etc?

      @EagerExpat thanks Joe, I'll risk it . The notes are polymer, so should be good. Out of interest, do you know the daily ATM withdrawal limit please? Used to be 10k Baht, but I think they raised it
