    Mate, You are living my dream! I can't begin to explain the almost obsession like drive I feel watching your vlogs and so wanting to be in Thailand. One thing I've learnt in the past 19 months, is getting a second chance changes you in every way possible!, I no longer sweat the small stuff and I am extremely grateful that I will be living my dream in Thailand eventually. In the meantime, please keep your vlogs coming. You're an inspiration!

      Thank you both of you, Jen and Range. I had a medical scare while back in Australia getting the annuals done. I actually thought I was done for, after misreading some ultrasound results.
      I’m grateful every day. 100% 🙏🏻

    Curious to know why you pick Thailand over Australia as your preferred place to live. I love Thailand but cannot imagine living there full time as an "always farang".
    It's great for a holiday but there's just too many problems, which I'm sure you're well aware of... but then again, each to their own

    Waiting to find a longer term rental to when you are in Thailand seems logical if you want to find best price. But once you are boots on the ground how would you suggest finding a place where the website or app isn’t going to overcharge and avoid paying a premium? ? And people always do videos that show how to get the cheapest places available, but there’s a lot of people that don’t want the cheap, , so can you do a video on that or explain how to get one of those properties without being overcharged and paying a premium, say a, three bedroom really nice modern house with pool and a pool villa ?.. how can you find those type properties and not get ripped off or overcharged?

    Thailand want long term residents to contribute to their economy financially which is why their longer visas have a higher financial requirement. Some younger Thais look at working overseas so they can earn more during their prime working years and then return to Thailand when they are older. Farangs have built successful businesses in Thailand or got into high paying careers but most make thier money from their home country and enjoy the lower cost of living and freedom in Thailand.
