- This is How They Treat You in Thailand (Sometimes) 🇹🇭 Phuket
As I explore Phuket, Thailand I meet many friendly Thai locals. I show the beaches of Karon and Kata in Phuket, Thailand in this video and also discuss Patong beach (the nightlife town) and Bang Tao Beach, which is far north and a more expensive beach in Phuket, Thailand.

Very nice video. No fluff great editing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was in Phuket while you were there too, too bad I did not run into you. Thanks for the great content, it inspired me to visit Philippines last year! 😎
Oh too bad! But I’m happy to hear my content inspired you to visit the Philippines! I hope you had a good trip!
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL wow nice place how i wish to visit there too
Jonathan you’ve inspired a bunch of us by the sounds thanks a lot man for your awesome videos
I travel to the Philippines early this year in January for five weeks now I am planning on heading to Thailand, so your videos will definitely help again 👍🏼✌🏼🇺🇸‼️
Some very nice people that you ran into.
From the here in the Ozarks, Thanks for the video!
They were! Thank you for watching!
As usual, great video and awesome content with the locals. Really enjoy your channel brother! :)
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and commenting! I always love meeting the locals!
Cool video again, Jonathan. Ayoo ayoo!
Thank you for watching!! Ayo ayooo
I love watching ur video ❤ hi Jonathan
Hi Lily Beth! I always love to see comments fro you! Thank you for being such a great member of the community!
Love your content bro. I was eye balling that dish in the bike rental place right away 😂.
😂 I didn't notice it until I asked what it was hahah.. Thank you for watching the channel!!
I agree with you about language barrier , it can be fun sometimes. The conversation turns into charades 🤣
🤣 yep! But I went to the doctor here, and that was not fun when we didn’t understand each other
nice video always❤
Thank you! 😃
That massage place next to atm at 1:29 is great and cheap, also the hotel to the right of it is also decent price for 2 blocks from the beach
Thanks for the info!
awesome video as always by the way what drone do you use? maybe you can share the link thanks
Enjoy your travels in Thailand mate🙏
Thank you!!
I think you've spent a long time in the tropics that beaches don't excite you anymore 😂😂😂 I want that feeling LOL
Hahahaha I guess that’s a good point and a good problem to have! 😂 I have spent the past 2 years living at the beach. I guess if you’re coming from a city or a cold climate any beach is exciting 🤣
Jonathan enjoy your travel and ingat palagi❤️☺️
Thank you!! Ingat!
Such sweet people in your video. Are they like this when you’re not recording? I really enjoyed this. Thanks!
I'm glad you liked it! Yes, they were very nice in this video! Thailand is really hit or miss. Some locals are super friendly like this while others seem like they're tired of tourism in their country, and I don't blame them for that. I would be tired of tourism too if I were Thai. And then those people seem like they don't want to talk to us, plus the language barrier. I think it depends on the area you're in.
I just booked my flight to Thailand😊. I love Thailand, from Philippines.
awesome! Have a great trip!
Hi Jonathan, it is interesting to see that the friendliness of the locals is about the same in Thailand and the Philippines. It is more challenging traveling in Thailand with the language barrier, which makes communication so difficult. It is fascinating that even with the language barrier you can still communicate in other ways.
Hi Ben! These people I met in this video were super nice, but there's no comparison to Filipinos. Filipinos are a different level of friendly in my opinion hahah... Most Thais are nice, but there are still plenty of locals in Thailand that seem to be tired of tourism and aren't that friendly to be honest. I don't blame them though.. Thailand is super touristy and attracts some of the worst tourists.. most are probably good tourists, but some of the tourists are obnoxious and disrespectful, only in the country for pleasure & self-indulgence with no interest in respecting the culture, country, and locals. So I don't blame the locals for being tired of mass tourism in their country especially when they can't communicate with them. But as you said, there are other ways to communicate! but it can be a problem... I went to the doctor and couldn't communicate well... that's not good at all. Thanks for watching Ben!
I have been to Thailand 5 times. It's so good. Iam going back this year.
It’s great! Amazing food!
Watching you from Seattle Washington love watching your channel stay safe brother ❤❤❤
I appreciate that! Thank you for watching!!
Hi! I'm Thai and live in Bangkok but my son is studing in Udubs for his bachelor degree. I would welcome you to visit Thailand if you have an oppotunity.
@@panjaneesaraboon8187 Thank you!! I love Thailand!
Enjoy ingat ..
Salamat!! Ingaaat!
Stayed on Kata Beach for a week at the Boat House. Beautiful place.
oh nice! I didn't show it in this video, but as I drove down that beach front road I saw many nice places near the beach!
Great ❤️
Thanks for watching!
Its a beautiful country Jonathan and the people too, thanks to you we were able to see how people in Thailand is ❤️
A common response when you ask someone how they are doing is to say "living the dream" which is a lie because it's everyday mundane working life. However, you my friend ARE living the dream. Great channel!
They seem very friendly & welcoming.
These people were very friendly!
@travelescapesOFFICIAL Can't wait to see for myself. What cities do you recommend?
Nian Harn is AMAZING! Best yet in Phuket
Just came back from Kata beach Phuket. Love it! But I mostly hanged with people from PH xD
Just a thought.... As you know it is really easy to tailor a CZcams video to fit just about any narrative. When I watch your videos I get the impression that for the most part your videos depict real interactions with real locals. Sometimes while watching your videos I detect, a bit of a rub with the locals. Only natural I think, but for the most part I believe your interactions are honest and real! G'dam you are one lucky SOB! To make a living creating videos with different cultures, that are for the most part happy, healthy people. Wow, God Bless you, what a way to make a buck!
I prefer to show real interactions with locals in that place and show a bit of what it’s like to live there rather than highly edited videos that don’t give you the real feel for that place. I can choose to highlight the negatives in the world or the positives.. there’s already enough negativity in the world, so I’d rather make positive videos so we can all take a break from the problems of the world. I agree! It’s the best job in the world for me and I’m unbelievably grateful for it! Thank you for watching!!
oh Myanmar looks gorgeous! i wanna go to Bhutan and Nepal too.
I'd love to go to Bhutan as well but you have to pay a daily tax of $200+ USD I think just to be in the country. I'm not sure about that number though. I went trekking in Nepal on the ABC Trek, I definitely recommend doing a trek there!
Thailand looks like it would be a fun place to spend a couple of days.
it is if you go to the right place! But a great place to eat delicious food and relax
That helmet did not seem to have safety in mind. It looked like it was made of plastic. I'm new to your channel and love the content. I have a lot of videos to watch in my spare time. Thank you for showing us the world, Johhny A. from Timberlake, NC, USA.
if I have opportunity to visit Thailand I will visit the places that Tony jaa fighting inside the cave...and also my favorite movie like born to fight. village.😊
I'll have to look into these places! I don't know them
Wish I can tag along with you wherever you go Jonathan. ❤
Great video! Those scooters all look the same, how are you gonna find the one you rented?
😂 mines the blue one!
22:33 watermelon with the seeds in them, can’t find that in the U.S. hardly anymore, it’s all seedless GMO fruit now.
I live here for two years, and I've realized one thing.
Thailand is called "The Land Of Smile". True. But here's the (real) reason:
Businessmen and store owners smile because they'll take your money; you will eat at their restaurants, you will sleep at their hotels, you will buy some souvenir from their stores.
Employees and stuff smile because it's their job and they are paid to do that.
So, people don't smile at you, but at your pockets / wallet.
Hello watching from Oman (middle east) ingat
Oman looks amazing! I've thought about visiting!
I’ve been to Thailand . It would be my choice except for the language issue. Food to me is the best over Philippines.. I will be retiring in the Philippines this year..
Thai food is amazing!! but yes, the language barrier is a big problem, Even in the doctor at Chiang Mai Ram Hospital last week I had a lot of trouble communicating, and that is not the place you want to be having misunderstandings
I love the “sometimes” lol Iv been to Thailand twice. And some of my encounters weren’t so friendly 😢
Yeah I had to be honest! It’s really hit or miss. Some locals are super friendly! But there were plenty who seem like they didn’t like me because I was a tourist and didn’t know their language. I think many of them are tired of tourism in their country, and I don’t blame them. I would be tired of tourists too if I were Thai
You my freind are coo coo for coconuts!😅
You were so close to maybelles coffee garden
oh really? Is that a good place?
@travelescapesOFFICIAL great place, great coffee, great food
❤❤❤
thank you for watching and following along all the videos!! I really appreciate it!!
@@travelescapesOFFICIALlove watching your videos. Giving me ideas to add to my list on where to go..😊
You have good vibes that why they gave you FREE Food. 😊
maybe 😊
Got lost in translation ? If you happen to be back in the Philippines the week of April 25, there is a town fiesta in Sampaloc Quezon, a week celebration of the town,s patron saint . It’s about 3 hours south of Manila
Oh that sounds interesting! I'm not sure what island I'll be on during that time, though.. Probably somewhere in the Philippines though!
Love Thailand so much more then the Philippines just has it all. And when your retired in your 60 + you want top notch facilities infrastructure and world class food. Traveling under 50 I can see why the Philippines would be choice on a budget. If your living not surviving Thailand, Bali or Vietnam would be better...
Yo bro i see that you are pretty chill, if you decide to go to Myanmar go to Yangon. Its not a constant warzone like on the social medias. Myanmar is one of the most beautiful asian countries.and we have the most comfortingly good foods in asia(edit i just now watched the video fully and i now know that you went to Myanmar a long time ago, if you decide to go to Myanmar again you MUST i mean MUST visit uh i forgot the name, it looks like a impossibly balanced golden rock on the top of a mountain, pease out)
🎉❤
thanks for watching!
you shoulda brought ann to thailand bro.
She's back home working
Aroi Mak!
Lami Kaayooo
There is a Smart Bus from Phuket airport to Patong for only 100 Thb.
Oh that’s much better.
🦋🦋🦋🦋
hi Mike!! How are you?
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL Hi Jonathan! I'm doing well. Enjoy your stay there! 😎😎
@@mikeebfly 😎
I've been to Thailand they say it won't be spicey but it's spicey and mind you I like spicey 😂😂😂
🤣 yep! Their version of “a little spicy” is Americans’ “very spicy” 😅
I love how blue ur bike is..hahahaha very visible...hahahaha
😂 I had no problems finding it haha
@@travelescapesOFFICIALI bet! Hahaha
What app do you use to translate with
This was just google translate
they are so much nicer to you when your single
then if you come with a gf or a family...
Jonathan, what do you know about the new 59 day initial temporary visitors visa? Is it automatic upon arrival or do you have to go to a immigration office to get it? I know the law changed in 2024. I'm talking about the philippines, not Thailand. Thanks.
Oh I don’t know anything about it actually. I just get the 30 day stamps on arrival and then extend once in the country. I think you can keep extending up to the 3 years without leaving the country .. then you leave the country and come back on a new Tourist stamp. BUT I’m definitely not a visa expert. I’m sure there are CZcams videos that specifically talk about that and know more than me
It looks like a lot of Thai speaks English as well. Especially it’s a tourist destination.
Overall the English here is bad. The girl in the motorbike shop speaks English MUCH better than most Thais. But yes, the tourist areas you usually can get by with basic English words, but there are usually misunderstandings
Yo
Yo!
the online live selling is boom in Thailand, mostly in Bangkok, Live selling by Filipino
selling what?
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL Clothes, accessories, monobo shoes, beauty products and snacks
a lot of business minded Filipino go to Thailand, they go live on Facebook, IG, Shopee
Clothing
@@travelescapesOFFICIALClothes, beauty products, snacks, bags, shoes
no comment for renting a motorbike
What do you mean?
Thai people is nice.I think they also want to talk but they just can't express it because of language barrier. so I'm still team Philippines 🇵🇭❤😊. Let's create a poll 😂✌️
😂 I’m team Philippines too! Filipinos are a different level of nice haha
my bro 450 baht a day is crazy expensive, you can find cheaper I promise
Our passports technically belong to the government, not to us. It is illegal for anyone to keep your passport (except another government).
The road is not safe coz there’s no stop light in the street😮😮😢
and the crazy drivers!
Bald and Bankrupt CZcamsr described the Burmese characters as SQUIGGLE SQUIGGLE SQUIGGLE.
The man of banana is disappointed at your racism.
Let google translator do the talking
Yeah, that usually does a good job

Don’t you need an international driver license to ride a bike in Thailand?
Thailand is cheaper than Philippines🙄
yeah I'd say so... especially once you get away from the popular beaches.. I had lunch in Chiang Mai at a restaurant for $1.85
Cheaper and better accommodation and food, most people’s largest expenses, in Thailand. Why would anyone believe otherwise? 🙄
Those women seem really nice
The world is full of followers if you’re not taking advice from a subscriber is not important keep doing the same shit every video with a smile..
Getting Lost in. TRANSLATION in Thailand.
