Legend ❤thanks for Ur Aussie conversions for things in previous vids too, cool vid champ..🎉
Mate you’re the OG there’s a massive gap from you to the rest re Thailand , my complaint is more vids please 😂 seriously though I have the tribe travelling with me our first Thai trip am scouting out the retirement spots via your vid’s and was going Bangkok Hua Hin first not any more it’s Bangkok Cha Am then Hua Hin and beyond can’t thank you enough for these truly awesome videos
Thanks. Prefer to make content-full vids vs 80% walky-talky filler so takes more time and effort. Grateful you and a few others seem to appreciate them. Cheers, STL
Thanks for turning on to Singto!
I spent 3 months in Thailand in 2000 and after injury that left me paralyzed I live vicariously through you and other travel bloggers.
But I will be back!
Damn I miss Thailand
Thanks STL, always watch your vlogs until the end 👍🇦🇺
I appreciate that
How could you not be in heaven in this fantastic part of the universe. My a solute favkrite place to be. Great vid most enjkyable right to the end. Bushyboy Oz.
I DO remember the past Cha Am festival vid. It def left a lasting impression due to its welcoming and relaxing vibe, just as this one has. The concert area is such a great spot to enjoy the perfectly fitting live music while eating and drinking...everything ha ha! Once again STL, it felt like we were there enjoying Cha Am and Thai Tay's festival's vibe, music, people and food right alongside ya'...luves that!
Thanks. Whenever anyone says 'I felt like I was there' STL thinks, cool, job done. Cheers
I like so much your videos. Thank you so much for all info you give us. I have a question: do You always travel alone? A big Hug
@@javier.lazaro1976 Thanks. Sometimes go with a gal-pal but generally roll alone. Tough to find a single lady who's independent, loves exploring and a nomadic lifestyle
Budweiser - to be fair, they have to try something to sell their beer into new markets considering the sh1tshow of a marketing disaster they had last year.
Man, you’re hook’n me up with places to say for cheap. Great channel that makes visiting a new town a lot easier initially. Thank you!
Horns and reggae, I'm sure you've heard Dean Fraser, those snippets reminded me of many a reggae concert that I have attended and some of Dean's magic. Looks like a lovely festival in Cha Am.
Maestro of reggae, sax magic
@@SideTripLife 😎 great vlogs, keep up the excellent work.
Belgian guy owns" The Beach Cha am guesthouse" on the left as well.
Also good value, sans swimming pool.
Your videos are the go-to for Thailand and Indonesia. This video was sweet as! Thank mate. 👍🏻
Beauty!!! Great video yet again!!❤
What a great Band, thank you!
Thanks for taking us back to Cha Am, one of my favourite places, and that festival is a real wow!
I really like these night events, after hours, and nightlife videos! Keep it up... they are great!
looks like a fun time. Great video. Desert on the beach. Excellent
Absolutely great place to chill
Hey STL, I think Cha Am is one of favorite beaches in Thailand, big and beautiful with plenty of shade to relax in…..and always some kind of event going on……love it!
Yep, truly underrated (as you well know;)
Love the vids, cant wait to get there.
Great vibe as always thnx :)
Thank you. This is first time i,ve seen video of cha am
Thanks for the recommendation. Plan to visit next year 😊
I loved last year's video here this one too. Great vibe. Thanks
Loved both as well but sound was better last year (still great vibes as you say;)
Finally back, lets get into it
Excellent job captured music at the beaches shows I'm sure these people probably enjoyed it.
Definitely booking my next trip to Thailand soon, love watching your videos and enjoy the atmosphere keep it up :)
Cha Am looks amazing and also the room, great price. Loved it.

Went to thailand last januari. This vid definitly took me back! Thank you
.... "Like an old man trying to return soup at the deli" 😊
Thx sir, another excellent showcase of Thailand. 👍
Another awesome video!!!
That sure looks like a beautiful area!!!
Thanks, really is
Great to see you back on that side of Thailand hopefully be there next couple of months
To check it out for retirement love your vlogs

Glad you enjoyed it
Really enjoy your videos.Thanx

You just keep pushing memory buttons for me! Weekends next door to Platoo at the (then) Marriott, teaching daughters to swim. We're visiting Thailand now and, before we leave, will get a few days in Hua Hin as a gesture to the first holiday together with my wife 20 years ago.
I hope the chilli crab at Ketsarin is as good as it was then but it doesn't really matter. I know we'll find new gems. Its Thailand, they're everywhere!
Thanks for finding and sharing so many with us all.
Enjoyed watching. Thanks!
Cool place. Banana and egg Roti and ice cream? Yumm. As always, excellent.
Thanks for the vlog on Cha Am! I'm setting off in a couple of days south. I'll def stop in.
Thanks for covering that concert, quality bands and people chillin to reggae.
Cheers Glenn. Really enjoyed it.
Great video looks like an amazing place. 👍😎
Thanks for the update of Cha Am , I see a future trip planed there. Nice bikes you found there at that Mask Steel bar. Thanks for the video. take care
nice thumbnail;)
We’ll be back soon and for good 🙏 thanks for sharing the video was great 👍🏻
Thanks for putting clear place names
Another geat vid. Thanks
The Irish pub was Crawfords, I went there a few times in 2005/6.
It had the best Western food in Cha am, I think they opened another in Huahin but I don't know what happened to them.
Crawfords, that was it. Was a great place, good grub n grog too. Thanks.
Thanks for this spent 7 weeks in thailand this year can't wait to get back. Toronto here.. Thailand what a gem ❤
Another great video, but for me it is still too short lol. Can't wait for the next one.
Another amazing vid, thanks BC Bro. Gave up watching 'nucks after the Boston Meltdown to game 7!
2011, pres trophy, top of the league, only to turtle in game 7.... gotta lift that curse....
@@SideTripLife Turned 8 years old just 10 days before the first Canucks game ever. Had a Orland Kurtenbach hockey card. Wish I still had it, LOL.
Great video as always, funny, I've bought a roti from the same guy when I was down in Cha Am in October. Keep up the excellent vlogs.
We've been watching your videos for years, love them. We're over the moon to star in this one, as one of the FFF's around 13mins. We loved the concert, we are big Singto Numchok fans 😊
13:00 great seats guys! You were among the very few foreigners there. Next time I'll say hi. Btw, just saw your vid walking in pineapple fields with the dogs, lovely. Also like your Haval, nice SUV. Cheers! STL
Looks fun! Thx
Looks like so much fun!
Really was! Thanks
Great vid! I'm looking to retire in Thailand. Any vids you post on places to stay is great. Keep up the good work!
Awesome! Thanks so much!
Thanks mate ……..enjoyed
Cheers Robbie
Go Canucks Go! Great vid as always.
Game 1 good result (phew;) but period 1, 2, gotta do more forechecking. Shout out to Winnipeg too, what a barn burner, great fans also
@@SideTripLife I am sure you’re probably using a VPN like I am to watch the game in Medellin Colombia. You should probably get sponsored by Surfshark or one of the VPN companies by the way I’m from your hometown to White rock BC well technically Surrey but a stone throw from the beach. Keep up the great work you’re gonna be at 100,000 subs real soon.
Used to live in White Rock (apt above the fish n chippers, great view) 'Living in White Rock means you never have to say you're Surrey'
I so fricking want to be there.
I was in Cha Am last week and enjoyed it, had a 6am run every morning and saw the sunrise. We stayed at Raya Resort, paid a little more than I usually do, but worth every penny, free breakfast and beautiful pool and gardens, felt like an oasis. Right by the beach, location at the quieter northern end of Cha Am, perfect 😊. Oh and lots of fresh fish beach eats/stalls right on the beach, well affordable with a relaxing chilled atmosphere!
Nice one Roy, just the setting and grounds alone at the Raya is worth the upgrade (and best coffee in town our front too;)
I stayed at Raya two weeks ago. Beautiful resort.
it was to short ;-{
bit still hit the like ;-)
Your videos are so relaxing i can watch them 90 min !!
great (as usual)
Thank you
21:46 Ouch! I wish you were saying, ok that see another set. Great vibe.
That big festival really takes Cha Am to another level - it’s generally low key , very much a Thai like beach town - I need to spend more time there - but I get stuck “ happily “ in Hua Hin 😎🤩👋✔️😃👍🙏 - Thanks again No.1
Ant still in HH? (great place to get stuck btw;)
@@SideTripLife Back in Aust for 2 weeks - then - Danang - Cambodia and back to HH 🤩
WOW, fantastic ❤❤❤
Enjoy your videos, I'm live in a little place you might know of, Chilliwack. I'm hoping to get to Thailand this winter and your videos give me a good insight on where to go. Keep up the great vlogging!!!
Love the valley, still have friends in Chilliford/Abbotswack area (STL once worked at Sasquatch Ski Resort and lived on Lake Errock;) Go Canucks!
Well done good sir...
I love these smaller beach towns probably where I end up after I escape Vancouver-thanks for your videos you pretty much cover in a fun way what I need to know short of boots on the ground .One thing as regards streaming canuck's games is it at all problematic in LOS.cheers happy trails
Some pubs will have playoffs but for reg games NHL streams dot io;)
Excellent Video about Cha Am ! Thank you so much ! I love beaches close to BKK ! Greetings from FRA !
Merci beaucoup
@@SideTripLife FRA is Frankfurt 🙂
oops... Entschuldigung
@@SideTripLife No problem, Sir ! :-)
Great video
Always love your videos - getting the wife into them alao, as wer'e over there soon,
Best river walk around of Bangkok - video
Thx Stephen (& wife;) Any looking in, here's STL's Bkk riverside walk vid: czcams.com/video/KYlCPrDYa3Y/video.html
hi matey,,, yep Cha Am is a nice place,, ,, kool festival,, 🙏👍😀
Thanks Andy. Btw, still following your series, loved your Goa vid
@SideTripLife cheers , more to come 🙏👍😀
Great video as always, keep them coming, I am coming to Thailand the 2 last weeks in July and would love to go to a concert like that, where can I find out where concerts are, if you could please advise me, thank you.. greetings from Norway 🇳🇴
Ya bud been there 10 times stayed at cha am house many times enjoy
Awesome!! Love, Love, Love it!!!
The music fest reminds me of the early days goneby from Kits beach/Locarno, or the PNE "summer nights" concerts of old. Missing my Tom Cochrane small venue shows rn.
Wondering how long it took you to learn Thai and how/where did you study or just pick it up organically?
Always watch to the end, it's just relaxing...
Cheers!...from North Vancouver
"From Mozambique to those Memphis nights, the Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights" Tom rocks! About my Thai language skills, in reality I speak just slightly advanced 'Taxi-Thai' (meaning I can just manage to say where I'm going etc). I had a biz here and my staff all spoke English and a wonderful Thai girlfriend who also spoke perfect English (grew up in the States). She did teach me the Thai alphabet which helped but she since moved back to the States and my learning peaked. But really no excuses, I should be fluent after all this time. Ah well, pom pai yai yam (I try;) STL
@@SideTripLife Thanks! Guess you'll have to get yourself another sweet girlfriend with fluent English, Lol. So much better than an app...
So I stayed there last year right around this time and I saw them setting up a beach festival as I sat at a nearby bar and had wished I had stayed
STL, bb. Yes. Love this channel.
As soon as you were walking to 711 I was waiting for the hello welcome.
That looked like a lot of fun! Glad you're back, I was getting worried...oh BTW after your advice I got a sweet lightly used 15" M2 MB Air with 16gb and 1tb! Absolutely love it, Lightroom AI noise reduction is >11X faster than my 10 yr old MB Pro! cheers!
Yep, diff between Intel to silicone chips is amazing. 16GB + 1TB, you're likely set now for a few years.
Thanks again STL from (TX).
Cheers!
you got me straining my brain as to who is singing that song, Don't easily at the 23 minutes and 40 second mark... was a great CD ..oh and great vid! hahha
Edit pretty sure its Gabriella Cilmi ...brains still working
Yep, Aussie's Gabriella Cilmi, 'nothin sweet bout me' yet there is
She was a one hit wonder in Australia, thought she was the next big thing but didn’t last long.
finally!!🍺
Beautiful quality video in the darkness. DJI?
Hi STL, the wife and I stay at Cha am a few times a year and love it there, what date was the music festival as I can’t see when it was online? Great vid 👍
Varies but usually mid or end of April
Nice video. I get more interested that we visit there
Thanks kindly :)
When was this beach festival ? Day and month
That area is such a chilled out place i holiday there every year but never been there when the concert is on
Really enjoy your vids ❤
The sea was angry that day, my friends - like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli. 😅 Another great SideTripLife video. The thing that amazes me the most is how you constantly find bargain yet nice Hotels to stay in.
One of my favs: czcams.com/video/oHRucRyLCms/video.htmlsi=LCKgbouTIW_WEh2a&t=153
STL's big Stein impression: czcams.com/video/hEYiN9wR0HQ/video.htmlsi=ERV25qsJvpYXx2Rg&t=1230
Cool music dude. Definitely like the under $175 stuff, top of my budget, but with a pool? Cool.. So have to check out Cha Am. thanks😉☠🏴☠
Hello from Cape Town SA. Love the videos. Would like to spend time in Cha Am or Hau Hin. But would you find Halal food options here too?
Again love the style of your videos.
Yeah, watched the video to the end. Living the life there man...
Checked the hotel prices, but I think you get better prices online in Thailand.
Try Agoda (link in description). Book a couple weeks ahead for best deals, varies by room, weekends/demand etc though.
Nice bit of regae. Maria and Col. Pattaya
Great video again, were do u find out comming events like this?
I just have a few fav events I follow but you can try to scan Thai ticket sales sites.
Come STL that’s been and gone now... recommend something for me please. I’m in Koh Chang and it’s dull as hell. Was in Bangkok last week and went a bit crazy so decided this would be a happy medium but I’m dying. I need nightlife but need either a nice relaxed beach or hike in the greenery during the day.
Thanks in advance.
Oh and you’re the reason I decided to come try Thailand in Dec last year and now I’m back again.
Wherever you go there you are... Dull is just a mindset...
@sneakygit2430 Koh Chang? Drop by Chan & Gingers's place, that should sort you out: czcams.com/video/xfPOAe5oI5U/video.html
I just want everyone to know that when you go far south in Thailand further south than Bangkok,Phuket and Pattaya to Trang Thailand and satun Thailand it’s dirt cheap you will find hotels for as low as $9/night.Even apartments that’s under $400 usd a month.But keep in mind this part of Thailand is still underdeveloped so there isn’t any international restaurants nor not any big malls or anything like that.Trang Thailand also have islands but they are all very underrated and in some cases underdeveloped it’s harder to get to them since there isn’t any regular scheduled boat service that go their.
This seems to be more of the down to earth places in your videos I’ve watched not many people trying to be over friendly and not many yanks or Aussies here hence maybe Budweiser moving in! Great video thanks for sharing! This place would be more my speed! Any surfing there?
I was surprised to see the Budweiser banners. Never saw Bud sold outside of Lotus in Hua Hin.
To the end!
Mai Ow toom. 💪
going there very soon m8
We made it to the end. 👍 Considering 55 people a day die on Thai roads you are smart to invest in that car. It is amazing how low the prices are there compared to Koh Lanta where we spent several months. Maybe we need a car 😂. But for now we are back in the snow in Saskatoon April 18 questioning our decisions.
Hi guys. Lanta getting spendy? Might head that way soon. Sask snow in April, yikes! Love the prairies but not the snow... (well, like snow in mountains ala Grouse Mtn in my hometown Vancouver lol;)
