Hey Ricky! Thanks for the comment. Hopefully we have gotten this budget close! We both saw what’s transpired in your life in the past couple of months, sending our condolences and best wishes to you 😊❤️
Guys, it's all to do with budgeting if you are here for a short time or retirement. I left the UK, and I had to make sure that my retirement life would sustain my future in the kingdom. Luckily for me I have a flat in the UK which is rented out and from that rental I can sustain my life over here and also some saving. I lead a very normal life I don't drink nor smoke or womanising so that's where I save a lot of money by the way I do have a Thai girlfriend and she has house and a car so for me I'm already in a win win future and yes we can enjoy our lives together and the future. I think your subscribers will appreciate your vlog.😊😊 At the end of the day its up to the individual how to survive in a foreign country budget it right you can enjoy but budget wrong it will back home in no time .
A budget is definitely needed for 99% of individuals who come here I think. It’s easy to fall into the holiday mode and to keep it going for longer than you probably should. Hopefully the viewers get some value out of this. And it’s also good for us to have to think about these things. Makes things easier for us! 🙏🙏
Thank you for the video🎥 Really interesting information and useful as well. I just like to know about your goal in Thailand. Are you there on ling term vacation or something else? Anyway good luck and have a great time in Thailand🇹🇭😊
Thank you sir! Appreciate it! We are planning to be travelling as long as we want really! That’s the goal anyway. All over the world! Thank you! So far so good!
We did some research and saw some horror stories with deposits. And we saw stories where it was all good. We expect to get it back, but if for whatever reason we don’t, we can just put it down as a lesson 🙏
Defo alot cheaper than living in Australia with rent costs and food costs that's for sure with rent being like $1200 when 10k baht is only what was it 430 Australian dollars or whatever like half the cost but i have even seen people in places that are like only 1000 baht a month in a 1 tiny room and bathroom no kitchen or anything though in some other persons video think that was in Thailand also but he was asking this person what they pay for rent a month but yeah crazy how much cheaper it is over there i just need to win the lotto first haha
@@franclyspeaking Yeah wouldn't mind visiting Thailand One day i mean i seen it was as cheap as 1500 - 2700 just for like 14 days flight plus hotel stay then just give myself 1000 to spend there on top But just gotta save up money for a bit before i do anything like that spent 5000 on a timing chain/ phasers and so forth on my car recently so gotta save back up and get to a safe point of money but defo would love to visit Thailand one day food looks great i love watching travel vloggers only just found yours xD , Anyways Keep up the awesome videos
@@Timoffieyeah great place to visit been there 5times exchange your money at super rich bottom floor at airport don't book accommodation at home because plenty hotels in Thailand good luck from Scott new Zealand
Hey mate. When we switched sims the lady put our old Aussie ones in the back of our phone between the protective case. Not sure how long it can stay idle when you’re not in aus though.

its amazing hope u guys can sustain that type of living thanks for the video
Thank you! Fingers crossed, we have a pretty good balanced lifestyle at the moment, we’re enjoying it!
@@franclyspeaking i tried many times and i end up soending 5 times what i soend back home very tempting living vacation mode good luck
Definitely, it can be so easy to spend too much, it’s hard to switch “vacation mode” off that’s for sure!
Because of the hot weather in Thailand, be aware that your electricity bill may be high if you use the air conditioner for a long time.
Very true! It’s definitely needed though 😂😂
@@franclyspeakinghi up north is cheaper like non khai and udon thani and chang mai great place from Scott new Zealand
We’ve been to chiang Mai before and had a great time! We are looking to spend a month or two there early next year 😊
Great you took it up 👍 i hate when they try to take 7-8thb/unit 😡
Thanks! We are too! We did plenty of research coming here, and while we may not have remembered everything, this one thing we did!
allso there are the warter fill stations all around 5 bart to fill big bottle
💯 we found one at our apartment complex and it’s so cheap and easy to use!
i stayed in Bangkok for 3 months and got an apartment with one of those small couches... such a pain, need a western size one
They’re definitely not the comfiest. A small L shape lounge would have been perfect!
Very good information, good to no thailand is still good value
Thank you @juliehawkes1050! Thailand is great, we love it!

10k a month it ain't bad price the condo guys.
Cheap as! Small, but we’re doing well 😊
Guys school boy error, never pay 2 months deposit. You won’t get it back.
We did some research and saw some horror stories with deposits. And we saw stories where it was all good.
We expect to get it back, but if for whatever reason we don’t, we can just put it down as a lesson 🙏
Thailand the best!
So true, Thailand is great! ❤️
