In July 2023 we moved to Bangkok, Thailand. But 8/9 months later, we are packing up our apartment and we are leaving. It didn't work out for us here and this is why...
We want to explain why we are leaving Bangkok, what we like and don't about life here, and what's next for us after giving up our flat and leaving Thailand.
We also want to share what we have learned over this period of time, what mistakes we made and why they will only help us grow as individuals and a couple in the long term.

Extreme Life of a Nomad Family (surviving far from civilisation in Mongolia)

Life for nomads in Mongolia is changing, the modern world and the promise of economic success has caused thousands of Mongolians to leave their nomadic herding lifestyles behind in search of opportunity in the city. But not all are embracing this new way of life and many are preserving their traditions and continuing to live the life of their ancestors, dating back to the era of Genghis Khan. I...

This Russian city is changing forever (the future of life in Siberia)

This is my home city of Kemerovo, in the central Siberia, Russia. I (Julia) was born and spent the first 18 years of my life here. But in many ways it is now a completely different city to one I knew, and it certainly will be in the near future. Today Matt and I want to explore my home city, the coal mining capital of Russia; from the centre, to the area my Gran lives, and look at how it and Ru...

DON'T Travel on this Russian Train! 🇷🇺

The Trans-Siberian train, the longest train journey in the world across the largest country on Earth. This train runs from Moscow in European Russia, to Vladivostok in the far east and back, covering over 9000km's and taking over a week. Most people take the train eastwards towards Siberia. However, we decided to hop on this train in Vladivostok, and ride it in reverse, from the far east of Rus...

This is Vladivostok, in the far east of Russia. Over 9000 kilometres from Moscow, the Far East feels like the edge of the world but what is life like here? The Russian far east is the least populated region in Russia with only around 8 million people living here (or just over 5% of the Russian population). Vladivostok is the capital of Primorsky Krai and it’s the second-largest city in the Russ...

    Thank you guys for this amazing video. Vladik seems so far away from us here in Brazil. Although, we, generally speaking, have very strong and fruitful relations with Russia. We usually catch the idea of a Muscovite Russia. So, after having watched your video, one can understand the vastness of the Russian territory. And, at the same time, as it happens in Brazil, the country’s huge size does not affect or diminishes the national identity. Greetings from Brazil!

    This was built so rich Chinese people could buy up Malaysian property. It was never meant for Malaysians , so the government restricted ownership. All work stopped immediately afterwards. That tells you everything you need to know. Also, the properties are not worth anything. Tofu Dreg construction is why it’s falling apart after 5-8 years. There’s hundreds of these places all over China. Millions upon millions of empty, half finished homes and apartments. That feeling of being watched is real. You were being tracked the entire time.
