      @FOCUSonASIA13 Před 2 dny

      I only do cash unless its a special occasion fancy western restaurant and then maybe us the card. You do not have to tip but we do as wages in Thailand like rest of Southeast Asia, Singapore excluded, are very low. Most restaurants have a service charge, so check your bill, usually 7.5-10% so we just add a little bit more depending on how the service was.

JenJen and I hate to see you go but I know you have you reasons, just want to let you know that you were a part of our lives whenever we had the chance to chill and relax watching your videos. Wish you and Miss Cecilia luck in your lives and hope to meet you someday. By the way I’m a big fan of TacoBell, it’s one of my favorite comfort foods.😊

    Really enjoying your Thailand travels. They are worthy of their own channel. I seeing a lot of places from my past years in Thailand, good memories, of my early 2000s doing logistics in Thailand. I was lucky, i traveled most of all of Thailand, minus south on the peninsula part. I have had a couple of those drivers from hell. They won’t slow down and drive normal either, after being told. Riding with them is like you will die any moment in a horrible head on crash. I don’t get it. Even my Thai Military translator would brief the driver and still he drove like a wacko.

    The change from city life was great to see, It was really a great stress reliever. I've had more than a few bad trike/jeepney rides in the PI . One of my favorite was with my Father-in-Law. We took a trike from Balibago to Hensonville, and he volunteered to pay. He gave the driver whatever the going rate was at the time, but it wasn't enough, the little creep wanted double ! The driver told him, "If you want that American to ride for that price get him his own trike". My Father-in-Law took a handful of coins and threw them at him. We stood there and laughed while he scrambled around picking up coins in the street. Thanks for the video JR. Hope you guys got back on track quickly, did you ever get any satisfaction or feed back from the company ?
