Health is your wealth 🙏
It is crazy hot this year. Even at 3 am Chiang Mai is at 33-34 degrees. Time for rain dancing.
Yes. As long as your happy in life. Happy and healthy is everything really. That's all you need
Ahh yes, the Heat. We have just had a very long, hot and extremely dry summer in Perth West Australia with temperature above 40c an not a drop of rain save for the occasional thunder storm somewhere far from me.
I'm afraid the folk back home in the UK would be dropping lie flys in those temperatures.
Having said that, we actually have rain forecast over the next 3 days, not that I expect much rain.
Talking of wealth. Well as you said, it's meaning is different for different people.
For me the meaning of wealth is, family, friends, live experienced. When you're on your death bed, those are the things that will matter and give you comfort in those last momments. All the money in the world all the material possessions won't matter.
Thanks Ryan keep blogging mate, love you're work
You are great person! Hard working! Good dad! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👍👍👍😀😀😀
🙏🙏🙏
Yes, very aware, knowledgeable and truthful Ryan is
I differ, the family becomes you and brings you joy. Every smile and laugh are worth more than any new car I ever purchased.
Sound like you don’t differ 🙏😁
You're so right, being a real man is providing for/looking after those you care about.
Seeing them happy, makes a real man happy.
It’s over 100 degrees there all day long 😂 everyday at 90 degrees your plants stop absorbing nutrients
@@anonymousmc7727 when will it cool down?
It's more blessed to give than to receive
I have watched your videos for years and admire your tenacity in what you are achieving-----IDuring the hot season with no rain farmers complain their crops are dying ---during the rain season farmers complain of flooding ---Why cant the goverment escavate more reservoirs or the local farming community dig or escavate smaller reservoirs or ponds to balance nature----A question for you I have been married to a Thai lady for over 50 years and don't understand why Thai women are so "stubborn" not just my wife but relatives and friends
Not everyone gets a wife and family that gives them plenty of quiet time, embrace it while it lasts 😆. Pretty warm here too in Singapore even after a rain
Very true 🤣🙏
Pro tip about plants that you're not using for food, have a soil dominated by sand. It will keep the moisture far more efficiently.
Thanks for the tips!
😊❤❤❤❤❤from uk
I have been back a month in the UK after 5 months in rual Thailand and believe me you don't want to be in the UK
Yea I was being a little sarcastic 😁
I agree 🤣
Agreed
Again another person that hasn't spent much time in rural Thailand or comes from another too good place in uk
My Thai wife couldn’t wait to get back to the Uk after a month visiting family in the 40degree heat. I returned to the UK after 20 years living in Thailand. Lots of reasons to enjoy and complain about both countries, depending on who you are 😊
My wife died when we had three very young kids and I raised them to be contributing productive adults. Many manchildren would have failed in that role. There is nothing better than the unconditional love of your children.
Sorry for your loss 🙏
I was In Asia this time last year. Sweat was pouring out of me from just sightseeing.
I know it gets to you this time of year., probably some air pollution there as well to booth.
When it got really bad for me, I reminded myself of those unfortunate GI's that were dispatched to Vietnam during the 60's from places like Minnesota or even Alaska, and how those poor souls were literally dropped off into some base in the jungle and had to endure 4 day combat patrols in the same conditions as we are discussing here.
I have a yacht that I sail around SE Asia with my family over the past 9 years. Probably a better word for a 'yacht' is a sailboat. It's our floating, transporting, tiny home and pretty much an off-grid platform. Totally agree that wealth and happiness, for most people, is TIME for yourself. As you said, you need money to gain that time. But its not a lot of money that is needed. The trick is to know when not to become the slave to money.
It is beautiful farm...nicely spread out. Well planned.
Thank you
Such a lovely place you created, my wife and I are in a village in Pattani (Panare) south Thailand no grass just sand lot we are watering twice a day but still the heat is killing us. More trees more cooler the yard is our goal.
Yes more trees helps alot!
The first year we lived in Buriram it was over 40 degrees for three weeks straight. It was hotter in 2017 than it is now, but this year is a bit hot. I look forward to the rainy season and then the cool season. The good thing about 43 degree weather is that it makes 34 degrees seem cool.
You have your priorities right 👍🏻
Drip watering, using recycled plastic bottles & containers, is cheap/easy & might help some of your plants survive the heat. Just poke a small hole in the bottle/container, to allow a tiny stream or series of drops to flow, over a span of an hour or two. Here in Central California, we get 40C temps during the summer on a regular basis, and I place the drip bottles around the plants which would otherwise wilt & die in the heat. I refill the bottles twice per day, on the hottest days.
Note: the tiny hole will likely clog often, so it is necessary to check for this regularly. I just use a steel pin to clear the clog - easy peasy.
Great content, as usual. :)
Top tops thanks 🙏
I've been living in Thailand for 13 years and in mop 2024 has been the hottest so far, I'm from the UK, and despite the heat I will stay in Thailand till I die
The farm looks amazing.
Thank you
I am a new subscriber and loved your birthday video,and I have just watched this video, you have done a great job with your farm and house you should be very proud of what you have achieved. Money is very important but quality of life is more important and you seem to have achieved a good quality of life with a loving family around you. I am trying to watch your earlier videos because you have provided some good information in them , I don’t do bit coin myself but I understand that it is freedom from a maybe cashless society and de banking. Keep doing what you believe is the best for you and your family, personally wish you success in your life.
Your a very interesting chap, Whether I come to Thailand or not, I am enjoying listening to you, Good luck, it’s nice to see a good guy like yourself coming back and winning.
your philosophy is solid mate. cheers!
Much appreciated
Almost two months of this extreme heat the last two weeks of it have been 43° in the day and 27° night and yes you're right it's making me feel sick to. We've no AC but as soon as I get back from a three month trip to the UK Aircon will definitely be installed. I'm also considering three months away from Udon to go to the South by the sea for next years hot season. I to am waiting patiently for the end of this 4 yr cycle 🚀
Keep it up. We enjoy your content. Maria and Col
Thanks so much
You are so right.....Happiness is all the wealth you need x
Yeah, here Malaysia is feel like 41 degree, so in order for my walk, i need
1. Neck fan
2. 99% uv refleft umbrella which can lower 3 to 5 degree under it
3. Sunscreen
Top tips 👍
@@thenakedguruand to try & not go out between 12-4 😅 easier said than done as you run a farm I know
Another very insightful video Ryan. This one hit home on a lot of the things I learned to late in my life...thanks
🙏🙏🙏
Your style of presentation is unique calm and sincere. Really enjoy your channel you have a wonderful life. Earned and well deserved. Keep it going my friend and yes I understand the heat issue 😢
So very true your comments regarding "wealth". I live in a small house up in Chiang Mai area. I am nowhere near as active as you, but I am very content with life. No amount of money could replace the day to day experiences I enjoy here.
I reckon --- different strokes for different folks.
Thats it my friend
I’ve lived in Thailand for 11 years now and this is the hottest I can remember 40 here near Bangkok
A few people telling me this actually 🙏
@@thenakedgurugf moaning 🥹 it’s too hot 🥵 too ..
We getting hit hard with the massive heat wave here in Sakhonakhon Province.
I'm watering plants and trees for a few hours a day every day to save them and threw some sun nets over some plants and young trees. It's a bad year this year.
Thanks mate for your wisdom and look around the farm my girlfriend lives in roi et and the heat is crazy at the moment good to see a guy talking since about Thailand and living the rural family life. Take care 🙏🙏🙏🇹🇭
I'd rather suffer the heat in Thailand 🤣 Maria and col
Yeah on second thought you are right!
Its remaining cold even though we are almost in May heating is still coming on at night , regarding having a yacht as my dad used to say a lot of money to have on a bit of string lol . Always interesting and informative and entertaining and thought provoking
Cheers Michael
My wife said she never felt it this hot in Roi Et. If It gets to 40° it don’t last very long.
When I was in Thailand and Cambodia 10 years ago in April and May it was way too hot. Hottest brightest sunshine I ever seen. I felt so ran down and sickly for a couple weeks.
The past King Rama 9 issued guidance to his people in the last years of his life in the form of a Sufficiency Economy. I read it as guidance to everyone as individuals to live a good life within their means, participating in their family and community. There is nothing to be gained by being jealous of those with more. For anyone with a little time to research the subject I suggest you spend that time.
cheers Tony
I always think about you, Ryan, as a guy who's successfully managed to create his own "Bag End" in a preserved Shire. And unlike Bilbo, you managed to have a great, healthy and happy family around you. When you rant about the situation in the UK, I'm not sure that naysayers are critical about your opinions, they are just jealous about you and the richness how your life.
What did you do with the carport? Do you intend to get a new one?
Love the video and your property. I live in Perth Western Australia, this year has been very hot as you are experiencing there and my garden well took a flogging. Normal when march comes we get very few days temp above 30 but mid April we still getting 36. Never like this before
Stay humble and stack sats , Hodl ! 🏖️
I live in Oz and it gets into the high 4s.Even though I have air-conditioning,a good quality fan at the end of my bed makes a massive difference
exelannt video Ryan and a what you say are actually soo true you are a real guru , say hello to your Mo and kids . hope to see one day and and the family . cheers from Surin , Stefan and Tip
Thank you both 🙏
Heat is one thing but the drought it killing us up north because the people continue to burn the mountains and the smoke is still terrible. Two new forest fires raging right now in the mountains so it's going to be ugly tomorrow.
Funny just got off the phone with Sandy, yes 103. Northern Thailand!
Last yr in southern Louisiana we had a week that the low was 105, we hit the temp high of 114, not including heat index!
Blessings stay safe and grown watermelons! Heheheh
I live in Darwin , NT, Australia and the weather is the exactly the same as Thailand !! I noticed you said your aircon was on 22c . You will find that you will save a considerable amount of power if you up the temp to 24-25.c. You will find also with the heat in Thailand lately( I’m in khon Kaen province at the moment ) your aircon will never reach 22c anyway which means the compressor in the unit is running at full capacity constantly without turning off / slowing down and therefore consuming maximum energy. ( google it) I also think the Thai government put some advisory notice out showing the comparaison in energy consumption depending on what temperature the aircon unit is set at( google that too)
Now I was going to mention it before when you were building your house regarding the colour choice of tin roofing !! White or off white is the coolest color… your roof cavity inside your house must be like and oven?. I presume you have used the Tin that you get in Thailand which has the insulation glue to it? I think that is supposed to work quite well but not to sure though I have heard after a period of time it delaminates from the tin roofing and falls off? In Australia they use roof insulation( google that too) which reduces heat transfer by radiation, convection and conduction. My house in Darwin I think has roof sarking to reduce the heat transfer from the tin roof though to my ceiling . I then placed ceiling insulation batts on top of my ceiling to stop any further transfer of heat from my tin roof through the ceiling!! I then placed vents at either end of the roof eves and then installed 2 whirly bird fans( Google that) on the tin roof!! These vent fans then remove any hot air building up in the roof/ceiling cavity with fresh air entering the via the eve s. I now find my house is so much easier to cool!!
There is paint you can buy that when applied to your tin roof also reduces the temperature of the tin roof !! I have used it on previous houses I have owned in Darwin but over time there is a reduction in its effectiveness and requires another application of the paint!!
Regarding your dying wilted plants Google water retaining crystals I use them and find them quite effective !!
Good morning lovely farm love the green 💚 and the animals lovely video God bless 🙌 always 🙌 ❤
Good news maybe😅! As I understand, crazy hot season almost done. Normal hot season come along and chilled hot season come after. But it is good to get out to cold weather for a while😊
Enlightenment 😊
Learning English from the TV is far more fun for a kid than learning at school. Our kids learnt Chinese because we only let them watch their shows in Chinese. I grew up in rural Australia, very very occasionally it would hit 50. But these days when it occasionally hits 50 people cry black and blue about it being the end of the world. But it was like where you are, very low humidity (your phone says 23% humidity). I'd personally take 48 degrees at 23% humidity, over 41 degrees at 80% humidity like we get here in Taiwan. :).
Quite right Jay 🙏🙏
You hv best life @ deserve it thru hard work and great family . As a entertainer of 35 years ..I hv seen heard listened to trollies.....key happiness u hit it ..although I don't hv kids ..seen others enjoy is g8t ..uk it's just a blurr ..n sooner cold shower than 3 duvets ..keep up good work that you enjoy
May 9th, in the UK it is blue skies, sunshine. light, breeze and 18C - perfect. 20 tomorrow 21 the next day. Who's is that big house?
I've been back in the UK a week it's cold and raining. I was there for April and it was 40+ every day. At first I was thinking it's okay it will get colder on a night. But it was worse trying to sleep in 30+ at night 😂😂😂 got used to it in the end. Id love to be back there
Your farm has really come on. Maria and Col.
Thank you 🙏
Our journey around the sun. Such is life. Good to see your all happy brother that's they key. Bless ya🙏🙏
Bonnie scotland will alaways be home gives me things that Thailand would never be able to ever .
Where ever inam what am doing scotland is home my spiritual home is the Philippines 🇵🇭
Which video had Otis saying really all the time when you were showing him the variety of plants in your garden, I’d luv to watch it again. Paul,Sheffield.
Hy Ryan, been here in Khon Kaen for 12 years now and this is certainly the hottest that I have ever recorded here. Having said that, it is only a few degrees hotter with my thermometer in the shade hitting 44.9 yesterday around 15:30. But the night time temperature is a lot hotter never dropping below 30 degrees for the last 8 days. I think that, plus the hot wind constantly blowing makes it feel as if we are living in a convection oven! Looking forward to you developing your bird farm and expanding your range of breeds. Although when in UK I kept various breeds of chicken, including Silkies, Appenzeller, Sussex, Wyandotte, Rhode Island Red and various hybrids, I have never kept any of the bigger heavy chickens like Brahmas, Buff Orpington or Cochin. Maybe you might want to give them I go as they are great talking points and mostly very friendly. I have never understood Bitcoin so I keep well away. Don't forget to keep hydrated. God bless you, Damo and the family and everything that you do. 😅❤🙏
off the topic, but where do you get the colored glass panes in your windows? I’ve looked in Phrae, but don’t know how to describe them.
It feels hotter in S.E. Asia, about 15 years ago it was more bearable, but I'm now wearing a 15kg "meat suit", so it's maybe not surprising and I sweat all day long. The locals on the other hand seem to be able to get through the day without breaking a sweat. Tree canopies make a huge difference, there can be 15c + degrees difference but you need larger trees and don't know how that can impact farming. Probably can't farm most crops under trees.
I'm in Koh Chang now after spending a month in the North of England visiting family, the pool in my little place now is hotter than the bath water at my mother place.... no joke !
I live in bangkok and was at my friends bar, and 3 musicians from Tom Jones live band (he played the new emsphere arena a couple months back) came in and one of them was a diehard btc guy, we talked for 2 hours about it lol. always fun convos talking to ppl who know.
when you know you know :)
Would you not consider a large rubber pool with steps. Don't know how you stick that heat 😅 Mind you I would like a few months of sunny days😅😊
Hi, thanks for your wise words, it really helps to hear that not everyone sees wealth as merely monetary. I have raised my two half Thai kids alone in the Uk for the last 12 years and although money is a struggle most times, I feel we have a great bond between us and that is our wealth.
It’s 44C on Thursday in udon
You are a very savvy man. I suspect you are one of those who would do well in UK if you chose. Many of those who whine about the UK simply can’t cut it there. Probably won’t cut it in Thailand either. I think you make it look easy. The time time with your young family that is super special.
Wise words!
micks thai travels great day here in uk lovely walk around my local park a nice free bus ride back from park went to rare breeds centre
Nice to walk around and not fry
To all those negative people who post garbage about uk, it really depends on the area you live and your circumstances, but i do enjoy derbyshie and the walks, which i cant in thailand its too hot
And i can say like for like the food prices are not at all bad as i will show on my vlogs for the next month
Enjoying my time with family and friens and also the travel over here in uk, wales and maybe scotland if i have time
Enjoy your time wherever you are
I am so happy that you do know how to live a very happy life with your family. If everyone just learn to live a life with satisfaction with what they have instead of wanting more and more their life will be much happier.
I'm still getting frost in Derbyshire. it's either wet or cold 😑
Grow aleo vera eat every 1 big leave and your body temp. Will drop and you can handle the heat much better ,i work 6 hours outside 2 hour training every day,every day holiday, greetings from Kao yai
I wonder how long it take you to get use to farm life and whats your biggest struggle when starting this life
Here re is a run down: The past 4 years of our life in under 20 mins: ua-cam.com/video/6ctdGJqBaUg/v-deo.htmlsi=WHqzunBJCD-m-1qV 😊
I'm also thinking moving away from my country, getting real bored and no artist muse..., so I'm thinking about my other option, I wonder do I suitable for farmer life
It's nice feeling safe and having your children safe right I am sure you can call relatives in UK CAN you I assume it's expensive!! To call and if you wanted to go to the UK HOW EXPENSIVE IS IT! YES I would even like to hear stories like when you grew up and when Damo grew up!! Like do you do any meditation yoga?
You definitely have an entrepreneurial spirit. With your property you could potentially offer an airbnb
rural Thailand experience. Just a thought for relatively passive income.
I hope it cools down soon!
Thank you
This is our current project: ua-cam.com/video/VLQP2sWVkWY/v-deo.htmlsi=9mMsplxmwdu4OWL4
I got back to the UK yesterday after 8 months in Chiang Mai. Yes, it's super hot, but believe me, I'd rather be back in Thailand. The UK is a sh!thole! I'll be back myself very soon. All the best, stay safe.
Can you build an underground room in your cottage? You should be able to reduce room temperature by 5-7 degrees.
We thought about it when we built but for more of a bunker haha but flooding is an issue in monsoon season 👍👍
I see. If the flooding is an issue, can you build it watertight bunker/room, by using a cement which prevents from water seeping through the walls? I think they use this kind of cement when building waterproof dambs. Thank you for your videos, they inspire me to relocate from UK to somewhere else, and in future find an Asian wife 🙂.
You’re a wonderful man, I’m delighted you are stacking sats , that will most definitely secure your financial future, Thank you for all your great and intelligent videos 🙏☘️
From your story analogy to reality. You've already achieve your successful live goal like otherworlder protagonist.
- Self reliant Wealth
- Favorite wife and dreamt family children & favorite pets.
- Custom house built, Personal favorite garden & farm & Slow life.
That's what's man's final dream & goal.
Yeah I’m not a fan of extremes at either end. I live in Sydney which is pretty moderate comfortable weather most of the time.
Ryan, you'll probably know that Bolton in the UK hit 40degree for two days last summer, then within a week it was 15 & pi55ing down 😅
Personally if i was to choose between Thailand heat & UK winters for the rest of my days...it's Thailand heat.
🤣🤣🤣
Yep, been here 13 years. This is definitely the hottest, longest period I have experienced. Before, maybe 3 weeks of above 40 degrees....but wow! It's been about 10 weeks above 40 here in Ratchaburi and no sign of getting cooler.
Wealth is a direct proportion of freedom of choice....the more money you have...the more choices you have. No money = no choices.
Come to Australia, summers can get to 45C, no one complains😂. Poms never stops complaining 😂.
Humidity in Thailand makes it feel much higher
Hi ryan been through heat like that before were u feel sick iits not nice
I think that you are talking about The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell
"The past 4 years of our life in under 20 minutes" Damo & Ryan, incredibly open and transparent sharing ... not very English 555. Must be your psychology training Ryan. We have been watching since Covid-19 days. I was working in China for an American company when COVID-19 appeared. My company got us out of China and assigned me to a job where they needed professionals, unfortunately, it was in an area of the USA that is not pleasant (West Texas Desert, and not the nice or interesting parts). So I know what you mean about having a job that pays very well but adversely affects your health. I retired we moved to Khon Kaen and built a in house in a rural area. We enjoy your content. When you finish your Air BnB barn we will book it. คุณมีครอบครัวที่ยอดเยี่ยม ขอบคุณสำหรับการแชร์.
You need to create a Cold green house using solar energy.
wouldnt 41 degrees be nicer than 4 degrees.
it takes an aircon 20 minutes to cool down a room but a heater takes forever to cool down a room. also our bodies are 36-37 degrees and 40 degrees is 4 degrees warmer but 4 degrees is a massive difference of 32 degrees
Beautiful tree!
Mate,the heat, 44c here, going to the condo in jomtien in 2 days 31 c there❤
Blistering hot 🥵 in bkk too these days, it saps your energy .. The whole country needs rain ☔️. It makes one feel a bit Ill to be honest .. oh how it be good to get some cooler weather for sure here 😅
Yeah i bet the city is even worse at this time of year
@@thenakedguru 🥺
I feel ya. Today I was at a wedding in Bangkok. 39c felt like 47c. My first time since being here that I’ve had to wear a suit, on a stupidly hot day. I melted, a complete mess within 30 minutes. Just had to endure another 6 hours after that. I’m whacked!
Yes the heat is a popular topic these days...Happy to hear your walk and talk today Ryan. You are a "trooper" my Auntie would say, to be out and about in this heat (for a little while at least), Very hot down here in Chon buri province as well. Yes the weather app. says 39 degrees, then in small letters, feels like 42! So why not just say 42? Great talk and discussion on "wealth" and "what makes you happy" Your priorities are right on brother! Damo, the kids, the parents, the village have all accepted you as part of the tribe because of your helping ways I think. You may become the first farang Village Chief in the years to come, or Damo the first female Village Chief. Peace and Love Y'all Stay hydrated!
Side note, I do not like bitcoin for environmental and humanitarian reasons. The noise pollution and carbon footprint these "mining machines" create is excessive. Many small farmers and other places in the USA have been ruined when a developer installs a mining machine complex in their neighborhood. Their sleep is disturbed, their animals are disturbed, etc.. Constant noise of 70 - 90 decibels 24 hours a day. Hopefully technology will correct this, maybe Elon will find the answer! You do you, Ryan,. At your age and situation it's all good, am not attacking you 555. Peace
Would shade cloth and a fine water mist help your plants
We have put in the mists but sometimes its the scolding of the sun hitting them, some will survive and some die as with each season i think
@@thenakedguru bit of bugger after looking after them so long. Indoor grow in the hut with wet wall air intake 👍 Is tea from your spikey plants allowed there?
No tea is not but the cactus are 🙏😊
wee
well said !!
we had this heat in the uk too few years ago it was hell
Are ice baths a thing there?❤
Oh yes 👍😊
Fair dues to you my friend, I love nature and animals but it wouldn't be for me, life is hard enough. The few years I might have left I'd like to enjoy some four and five-star services.
