Hi Wayne, may I ask how many different rooms/condos have you lived in since you’ve been living in Thailand? I’m interested to know how many times you have to move so far. Thanks mate.

The first apartment was a bit boxy but in a quiet area and economical. Most of the time you’re not there so space not so much of an issue. It’s private too. Nice room for 550 good for short stay . I can get similar in Phuket for 500 without the view. Nice accommodation review. I’m battling with the areas you mentioned and locating them at the moment.Thanks mate 👍

For 6000 baht a month it could be your second home, you don't need much space in your second home, just a place to crash when you spend a weekend visiting.

That room at Chanapat Hotel for 550 baht is real value. I remember paying that and even more in Bangkok at the Malaysia hotel well over 25 years ago and its room layout was pretty much the same. The first place didn't quite grab me whilst brand new looking too small. especially the front room. Top video as always Wayne. Cheers mate. 🤩

Not enough room to change your mind, liked the area though

I think rocket travels pad just on the outskirts of Hua hin for 6000 amonth is the ideal Wayne.

That house sucked bro. Too small and clostrophobic.

Excellent video ...thank you sir . Welcome to our country ..

We stayed 9 month at Crystal place, also just by HD road. Cross the road was the parking to Airport Festival plaza and about 15-20 min walk to the airport. No pool or gym but we really liked it! Hope you find a new nice place👍

The Landlord wasted a lot of space putting up walls. Should have made the space as a studio and only closed the bathroom.

Wow mate that is lovely Wayne that living space is small but you have a kitchen bedroom it’s a nice place

Another Bobby Dazzler bruv......I'm living vicariously through you...keep it up Wayne!

Happy days, enjoy 🙏

I live out in Ban Tawai, we bought out house so don't have a rental fee, but I admit I like to be cool at night so I use AC when it's over 25 degrees. Like you we live a simple quiet life but being over 55 I pay less on visas but more on insurance. However our monthly spend is about 20,000 Baht, that's for me and my wife, who is Thai. Nice to see a video of someone who, having lived an everyday working life in the UK, can appreciate the simply life here. Good luck to you.

Yes, that front room was small.. Lots of stray dogs around those areasbig problem around there, packs of 20-30 running about at night. Ive just moved out of that area, on that road you were on brings you out at the hospital. Crazy you went down my old road. Plenty of shops and stuff in that area..Building a big 7/11 down there too. Dont want to sound negative but there are lots of old people in that area stuck in their ways, one of the reasons I moved out of there, weird vibes. I used that motorbike shop a few times, to be fare they made the problem worse. I wouldn't go back to them.

I could live what the living space, just turn the low shelf to the side as extra storage and lean a table against it for work / dining instead. What would do me in is the bathroom; waaayyy too small and no divider. The gym is good value though especially for a 3 month membership, well equipped.

Was looking to come for a month later this year that hotel would be perfect, could just book it before we come job done. Very modern and tidy, thanks for showing it. All the best !

If you put some rubber bands around the phone holder, it won't rattle like that, respected brother ❤

how much if wanna buy that flat

Hey Wayne! Nice quiet setting: agree with you that the place should be more "open". A definite flaw in the design/construction that could have been easily avoided. Wish you luck in finding a residence, location most desirable for a person seeking calm and serenity. Good health and safe travels!

Little duplex ok, similar to Sunny Days little mini apartments, but think Sunny days has bigger rooms

Found a 2 brm 2wc 120 sqm house you might want to look at in Saraphi.5500 B.Exactly 1 km from Saraphi walking street,road opp the bee school.First white house on the right opp rice field. Faz Waz

Instead of doors they should have put in wide entranceways to open the space up. Maybe she would be willing to change it up a bit?

glad you never took it.Pokey all right.Every man and his dog in the street would be using that pay washing machine ,right outside your window

Nice and new Wayne but I'd feel very cramped in there. But maybe at that price it would make sense to rent both of those units and get a bit more breathing room and two bedrooms.

Just move to pattaya you know you loved it

550 I'm in when I go that's fab man quiet to...😎

Great. Tomorrow you reach 20000 subscribers. Be proud on you and your work and goos Karma. Congrats, well done !!!

Enjoy your journey of life mate chok dee 👍

Wayne I’ll buy you a coffee!. Let me know when?.

Hi Wayne, They should have made that a studio room, and it would have been perfectly. Great price in a good location though.

<$200 is amazing. You'd never find anything in the US for that, let alone the cleanliness and quality, or area. This is why Thailand / SEA makes sense for people trying to achieve financial independence.

That place was really small… she split it up trying to make more money… I’m sure you can find a place with a bed bath small living room and small kitchen… probably with a pool and gym…. Look at condos…it’s worth spending a little More per month to get everything right where you live… I’m searching in the area where I live now..I will take 2 months looking…. And find a good place for a 1 year lease… happy searches….. I’m sure you’ll find a great place

£15 a month for the Gym is great! Great selection of machines and weights too! How many times a week would you be using the gym?

you're looking well , and good to see you lifting the weights again haha - are you in your 50s ? (if you dont mind me asking)

great video and tour. Them rooms were too small , it would have been okay if the living room was bigger

Any airport noise there?

Lovely studio and 2 bedroom place!!!

My gf is looking for a monthly let. Any suggestions?

tidy duplex Wayne. Generaly "tight is right" but not for living spaces😉

Would have preferred it to be all open plan instead of multiple tiny rooms. btw have you ever been stopped by the police on Lucille?

Jez that was a class looking plant .good video as always

nice video!! just curious how much to rent the 155cc moto for a day?

Very good advice mate. I've heard some ridiculous costs, were it ends up being more expensive that western countries and you end up thinking. What the point then?

All of these guys in Thailand on YT telling you how great it is and how much there is to do, but they're spending most of their time making videos....because there's really not much to do. After to visit the malls, temples, etc. a few times, it gets old. This is the reality these guys on scamtube aren't going to tell you.

Great video great prices. Would you be alout to cook in the small one no sink even but really nice and great value wifi bonus for someone like me who doesn't drink or smoke just looking for warm climate would be superb 👍

Was jewellery & gemstones that took me to the Majestic Land of Smiles therefore first dibs on the geM your giving away if I may!❤

I live in the western foothills of Chiang Mai (the foothill road from Wat Umong to Wat Pong Noi) and I don't remember seeing any vlogs about the area. It's the new hip place. You should feature it! It's got lots of trees and hipster cafes and artsy places. It's really quite beautiful.
