I started 2024 with my mum. Never did I think I’d end it without her. Not all of our family or friends made it to 2025. Never take for granted the people that you love. Life is short. Be thankful for today because in one moment your entire life could change and you won’t ever be the same again.
Everyone has their own story. I totally get it. Im not going to say im sorry, etc. Those words are just empty. I get people who are just being kind, and that's the only standard line they think of. But I will say, I do understand more than you can imagine. Cheers
Happy New Year mate. I have recently started to follow you as thinking of moving to Thailand as I’m happily married to a Thai for 22 years. I am looking forward to your videos in 2025. I’ve been to Cambodia and Laos but not Vietnam.
2024 Did what I have done for the last 7 years look after my housebound Mom 94 years old!!!!.also has cancer Full time carer!!!! Its hard work but we only get one Mom. I don't complain and I'm a pensioner!!!
That caregiver stuff is a bit of a conundrum, as far as what to do…. I know someone who’s put his life on hold for 25 years. Their mom got cancer and said you need to move home close to me. They did 25 years ago and constantly talk about what a mistake it was and how they hate it there. The last 7 years she’s required almost daily visits, now daily. She really needs to be in a home but they won’t do it. They are in their 60s and she’s in 80s. Point is… it’s a real case by case situation, and can be very difficult. I feel for you. Try to find some time to carve out some happiness and life for you, however you can.
I am sure you are doing the right thing Darren........get out of all that noise and pollution and don't look back. Far better places to spend your time. Good luck!
I believe if you have more smiles than cry’s it’s been a good year. Living in thailand & visiting my family back in London it’s been a good year. Let’s all hope 2025 brings us & our families happiness & good health what more could you ask for 😎
Been a tough year for me personally, moving house was the highlight though on a positive, have enjoyed your content this year and look forward to following you in 2025- keep up the great content. Happy New Year DJ!
Wishing you all the very best for 2025 Darren. May all your dreams come true for the future and that you can soon get your family out there for a little holiday at some point, keep up with your vlogging as myself and all your subscribers can’t wait to see your continuing journey in Thailand
If you are looking to do Philippines, I STRONGLY recommend Boracay! That place is brilliant! Didn't much care for Philippines (although, the countryside is fantastic), but Boracay was divine. Vietnam was a blast. Cheap, great food, great countryside. Would definitely go back. Cambodia was okay, but I probably wouldn't go back. Hope you have a great 2025, DJ - and all viewers.
Hi mate, I have been really enjoying watching your stories and life journey from when U started preparing to leave the UK. I'm in OZ but have visited Pattaya a few times and hopefully will again this year. I would definately like to have a beer with ya mate. Kepp posting please really enjoy your stories
Happy new year dj. You look much more relaxed and calm since you moved to Thailand. Loving the channel. This lifestyle really suits you. Have a great 2025! Terry and Julie.
Love watching the videos , authentic and just like hearing you speak, good luck in all that you do, you seem to have found some real peace and contentment
You've made my day , everywhere you go in Thailand one can hear this bird, I've always wondered what the name of this bird was, so thank you, can you imagine going into a bar say in soi 7 and asking another ferang if they knew the name of that bird , They'd look at you and tell you to fuck off lol
I started 2024 with half the sight in both my eyes and ended 2024 with little sight in my left eye along with other complications and eye conditions. Even though I am having treatment at moorfields, I am looking at other therapies and changing life and diet. Hoping that 2025 will be better. Happy new year to you too, wishing you all the best, take care of yourself
Happy New Year Darren 🎉🎊 Have loved watching your vlogs this year and your journey to a new life. Never knew Thailand had so much to offer. Your journey from London to Tenerife back in 2023 was a highlight for me, was such an adventure. Thank you for taking us all along with you ❤xx
Been with you from the beginning Daz. Hope 2025 gives you everything you hope for. I retire in March and am so looking forward to it but it is, however, tinged with sadness as I've had a great career!
Happy New Year Darren, we love watching your videos, we are off to Thailand in February from Australia, I have been about 5 times but my husband has never been so I can’t wait to show him. Quick question, what is the exchange rate at the moment for AUD over there in Pattaya? Thanks heaps, take care 😊
A very Happy healthy and safe 2025 to you. I look forward to following your journey on both channels. I cant wait for our trip to Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia in May.
There are those that say they can and those that can , you are a man that can had has done it mate . You will inspire many Keep up the ride can’t wait for 2025 have a good one 🎉🎉❤
Happy New Year to you Darren, my word what a change in you since you got to Thailand, you look positively glowing, happy and content, nice one fella.2024 had been a tough one for me and my family.been waiting best part if 4 years to have both of my hips replaced and my mobilty has gotten worse as the year has gone on. Had to reduce the hours i worked to just 4 hours a day as the pain was too much and could only walk with elbow crutches. But! Had my first hip replaced 4 weeks ago and getting the second one done early next year and i can tell already its going to change my life. Already im in half the pain i was in so once im fully fit i think i might put mu business up for sale after 30 years and kick back and retire. Who knows, might come out to Thailand for a beer with you lol! Thanks for keeping me sane this last tear!👍👏👏🏴♥️
The beautification filter knocked 30 years of you ! Or is it integral to the camera? Tuck in to breakfast champions off camera :) HNY ( including any lurking mongers )
Happy New Year Darren and all the best for the future . Don’t put off till tomorrow what you can do today , life’s not a rehearsal , this is the only one we get .. cheers and best wishes 👍
Happy New Year 🎊🍾🥂 I enjoy both of your channels, and from what I've seen of Thailand so far on your videos, I can't wait to see what 2025 brings! Thank you for creating fantastic content 👍💯
Happy new year Darren, wishing you a prosperous & healthy happy life, once again as I've said before you look great... Thailand is definitely for you. Best wishes, Annie x
This time last year I’d just started 2 months of cancer diagnosis ,, followed up later in the year with 2 months in oncology every day ,, everything was fine then my body locked solid into PMR which now 3 months on has finally subsided and I’m more or less back to normal ,, tickets booked to Thailand end of February for a month. Glad to see the back of 2024 ,, let’s have a new start and healthy new 2025 🎉
My goal is to beat my depression and realise my health is my wealth . Love your vlogs and i wish you a happy new year and to all your followers the good ones not the trolls 😉
Sorry you are depressed, take small steps every day that brings you joy. Yes you are healthy and that is a massive thing to be grateful for. Wishing you well for 2025.
I started 2024 with my mum. Never did I think I’d end it without her. Not all of our family or friends made it to 2025. Never take for granted the people that you love. Life is short. Be thankful for today because in one moment your entire life could change and you won’t ever be the same again.
Sorry to hear about your mum. Hope you can still manage a good New Years Eve, even though it might be hard.
Everyone has their own story. I totally get it. Im not going to say im sorry, etc. Those words are just empty. I get people who are just being kind, and that's the only standard line they think of. But I will say, I do understand more than you can imagine. Cheers
Amen to that.
I lost my sister so I know the feeling buddy. Blessings.
@ Sorry for your loss
My best memories are of the wonderful NHS angels that saved my life in 2024
Happy New Year mate. I have recently started to follow you as thinking of moving to Thailand as I’m happily married to a Thai for 22 years. I am looking forward to your videos in 2025. I’ve been to Cambodia and Laos but not Vietnam.
2024 Did what I have done for the last 7 years look after my housebound Mom 94 years old!!!!.also has cancer
Full time carer!!!!
Its hard work but we only get one Mom.
I don't complain and I'm a pensioner!!!
You can complain, it's ok with things being so hard to acknowledge it. But also hope you look after yourself and get a break when you can.
@redmoon8217 Yes I do I was just making a point that not everyone is in paradise as he tried to make out.
@@747jono I am being nice and offering you some words of comfort. Hope you manage a nice night.
