Salamat Po
Wow, that is a great new mall. The food choices are HUGE. Thanks JR
Emsphere is a very nice place to hang out, thanks Mike
wow.. cool thumbnail. I feel like I'm watching a Movie! good job. really like the new intro.. great beginning.. You do a better job editing than other Thai vloggers.. I hope CZcams recognizes this video. Very well laid out .. storyline.. Philippines gets boring after awhile. so great to watch other countries and things to do nearby that are only a 3 to 4 hour flight! if you have the budget.. dont sit around.. travel.. really makes life more interesting and ful of life!
Thanks Mark!
Thanks JR and Mrs C, hotel room is in great location, loved that city walk,choice of eating is mind bending,enjoy Bangkok and beyond👏🏿❤️
Thanks Paul!
Great B Roll opening!
If you like that one wait until Thursday's video LOL
Hi JR. One of the nicest food courts I’ve ever seen, no I take it back, that was THE nicest food court I’ve ever seen. Definitely need to add that to my bucket list.😁😁😁. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Pier 21 food court is hard to beat
Realized you probably meant the Emsphere with all the fancy lights LOL Its pretty awesome but Pier 21 in Terminal 21 with its food prices, still the place to go
whats up J R its me. Great 1st day in Bangkok. Food as usual looking gooood. Keep em Coming brother. Im in Hawaii now. Cheee huuuu
Aloha brah! Safe travels back eventually
Great intro!
Enjoy your travels.
29 nights, enjoy!!
Thanks Gunny, first 29 nights of an eventual 4 months in Thailand, we will be bouncing other places in between

Will you show how/where to extend Visa in Thailand?
I have been watching “Travel Thailand with Allie”, but her and husband or to expensive. They in BGC Manila right now VLOGing. They at Grand Hyatt BGC Manila. Expensive!!! Takai!! They travel business class or higher on planes. But they explain they can because they say, they make $20,000.00 a month off of their several CZcams channels.
I glad you can replace them.
@@mgysgtk8835 Ya I make about $30 a month right now LOL As far as visa extensions in Thailand, right now I just have 30 days at a time scheduled so no visa extension needed, I am travelling out of the country every 30. There is supposed to be a new 60 day on arrival instead of 30 which you can then extend 30 so total for 90 days you can stay without shelling out a penny.
@@FOCUSonASIA13
That new extension would be great.
@FOCUSonASIA13
I much more prefer your style of traveling.
Pretty cheap prices there in bangkok uncle 🍛🥗 even your condo apartment your staying in 👍👍👍
Very affordable
I night in Bankok makes hard man humble.. And if your lucky it will a she, Bankok oriental city!!
Exactly
Great vid JR. When you guys get back to Angeles, it would be nice if you could briefly talk about some gated neighborhoods with available lots. Maybe briefly point out lot sizes and prices. We're trying to get an idea of the cost and plan to be in the area around this coming March. I'm not sure which hotel we'll choose, but we'll figure that out later. Thanks. If you can't, we understand. Was hoping you had not thought of doing that yet and that you liked the idea, lol. Take care my friend.
I have done some pricing in the past in my vids, as far as buying its hard to go out and see properties as you are always dealing with a middle party. That turns me off on the real estate process in the Philippines, always someone trying to show a different price that what the owners want so that they can get a cut. Angeles area the prices are crazy, in our neighborhood which is not one of the top ones, 120 SQM lots are going for 3M now. I have seen 7m+ for lots in the higher end neighborhoods. Its crazy when you can get beach front property in some locations in Philippines for those prices.
@FOCUSonASIA13 Thanks, JR. To be honest, prices are ridiculous all over. We live and own two homes in Pensacola, Florida. The prices we have been seeing on CZcams are crazy high to the point that i wonder how anyone can afford to rent at cheap rates after paying those crazy prices. Was hoping your area was a bit cheaper. I think I like the Angeles area. From what I see in your videos, there's plenty of restaurants and shopping. Plus, there's a Medical City Hospital located nearby, which I'm hearing accepts TRICARE and Federal BCBS and AETNA insurance from the States. I've tried writing them, but they never respond back. Thanks again, hopefully we'll see you guys there soon.
@@spmrosepi1 ON pricing I was referring to the Philippines, Angeles City area per SQM is over-priced in my opinion. For same money you can get better houses more land elsewhere but it is what it is. We like the convenience of the airport, no more Manila airport for me
@FOCUSonASIA13 JR, thanks for clarifying. The airport is a big plus for sure, especially with all the traveling you guys do. I'm not sure we'll like the Angeles City area, but it does have many positive attractions. My wife's family is from the Bataan area and Manila. Angeles seems like it would be far enough away but close enough to visit.

Thanks Adrian!
You're killing me with the savings bro
It's all about the cost over here, good food, good accommodation and not breaking the bank
Good to see you back in BKK. I live next to True Digital Park. Lets meet up if you have time.
Is that the new area that looks like Singapore?
@@FOCUSonASIA13 Its relatively new but not even close to Singapore.
I am free this week Wed thru Friday, let me know when, we can maybe grab lunch. We are staying Asok area but I am fine meeting couple BTS stops either direction
Sir JR, Great video, love the food there, be there on the 10th,for newbies terminal 21 food court offers all type of food from local to international type to try and is very affordable. Keep more food video coming..BTW one of my favorite is Piri Piri Flaming Grill in Siam Paragon,chicken is excellent, give it a try....Ed
LOL we just had Piri Piri the other day in new location in Emsphere, good stuff
We beat u Jr, we WIN!! The series Padres beat Redsox 3 game series.
Military Sunday's every Sunday at Petco Park, NAVAL BASE SAN DIEGO!
LOL Sox are in a re-build but I like their young team. I thought Padres would do stuff last year but they disappointed. We will see what they do this year.
Excellent deal on the room👍 I like your detailed pricing of each meal. Let's me know what's pricey. So u took US dollars with you? Have u used US debit card on ATM. Thanks bro, be safe, Enjoy
Thanks Ira, I don't do ATMs. Carry US dollars
Thanks for sharing your first day stay in Bangkok. We can’t wait to see your entire 29 days journey in Bangkok. Great and a really nice price for that condo you’re staying for 29 days and it’s so conveniently closed to terminal 21.
If you don’t mind where did you booked that condo from? Also can you please share the name of the condo again. I tried searching the name cote but I’m not seeing the 29 days cost you paid for. I’m using Agoda to do the search for the condo name. Any tips about this hotel is absolutely appreciated . Again thanks in advance
Name of condo/apt unit is Le Cot on Sukhumvit 14. It is a little older but great location. There are other choices in this area as well. We book our long stays 28 nights+ on Airbnb
Mos burger is from Japan, not KOREA, WE LOVE IT, WE GO EVERYTIME WE ARE IN jAPAN, WHICH HAS BEEN 6 TIMES IN THE LAST FEW YEARS (WOULD MOVE IF THEY HAD A RETIREMENT VISA), CAPS LOCK, SORRY!!!!!!
If I said Korea then yes I misspoke Mos burger definitely Japan, eaten there since the 90s
@@FOCUSonASIA13 I am surprised they have Mos burger in Thailand
You guys really destroyed those curry dishes ! Did you hit any CoCo's while in Japan, I saw all the vids, just can't recall rite now. Every Thai video you put up is very interesting, a lot like Clark until the bitter end of course. I hope that Angeles City makes comeback, but IDK. It just looks like a whole lot of money was put into the local economy without much planning. Am I rite or wrong - correct me if I'm wrong !
Whole lot of money went somewhere in Angeles but not on those streets! I think you will like the changes in Angeles in regards to the malls, restaurants, good internet, and Clark. I don't think anyone who enjoyed nightlife there will have same feelings upon return.
@@FOCUSonASIA13 Yep, it's obvious the clubs are losing influence, quickly ! How are the hotels and businesses on Clark doing ?
@@Mr1990hjc Think the hotels will always do pretty well due to the casinos and influx of Chinese and Korean gamblers. Restaurants seem to do pretty well on weekends with people coming up from Manila and other areas
you guys back in Bangkok, planning to move????
Maybe some day, but not any time soon, Still need to see what Thai tax laws are about, no one has an answer on that until 2025 filings take place and we will see. Also need to figure a way that makes sense for us if we decide to move
@@FOCUSonASIA13 there will not be double taxation, that will never happen, I seriously doubt you would ever owe any taxes in Thailand, and how would they get any from you anyway? I have been reading about different creative ways to avoid this whole matter anyway. The trick is in how you bring your money into Thailand, and weather it is taxable or not. But I agree we all need to watch this carefully. As a Canadian I have no worries, tax rates are high in Canada, so we would never owe anything. The other option is to not stay in Thailand more than 160 days, 6 months less 1 day and you are out of the taxation issue
@@kleerogers Ya agree on the 180, but if you want to move for retirement and getting older. changing places every 180 will get old
@@FOCUSonASIA13 I meant 180, and I agree, as we get older that will not work, we still plan to move to Thailand, as a Canadian we will most likely never owe any taxes in Thailand, if I had to pay taxes I'd figure out a way around it
