That really changed your mind on Pattaya, it deserves some good press cos its a great place to live.
Love Pattaya ❤️ just got back and it's all I can think of....the place puts you in a certain mood that I never achieve in California...
Yes, it was an experience and I hope to come back and look around the quieter parts of the city.
Pattaya offers more pussy per m2 than any other place in the world. Nuff said
Just subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work!!
Thank you! Welcome to the channel.
As you probably now know, the bhat bus does a loop, second road then beach road, round and round all day & night
I didn't know that mate, but I do now 👍
You definitely seem happy you got a spring in ya step 😂 😂
Lmao true!! 😂🎉
🤣🤣🤣 No comment
He’s had his Oats 💃🏽🕺🏼😂
@@DiscoDrew Get them in every town buddy 🤣
I love walking around out there.. great exercise!!! headed back to the east next week!!
Yes Mark, I'm happiest when I'm just walking the streets. Have a good time man.
Love seeing these cities through your walkabouts. Thanks for taking us along. 450 Baht ($12.50)/night for a clean, large room in Bangkok sounds very fair. Safe travels, mate.
Thank you ! Yes, for Bangkok, I can't complain. It was ok for 1 night 👍
Love your vids mate and how you do it on a budget keep up the great work
Thanks mate. Yes, I do everything on a budget. I live a very basic life.
An alternative way to get to Thonburi would be the Jomtien bus to the airport, and from there, the S1 bus to Khaosan Rd / Sanam Luang. From there it's just a short journey over the river to Thonburi railway station (ferry or taxi). And there's a minivan that goes directly to Kanchanaburi from 3rd Rd (just N of Pattaya Klang) - around 9.30am I think
Nice one! I try to avoid the minivans if I can.
@WalkAboutWayne Yes, the vans have been called coffins on wheels. Pretty difficult travelling around without using them though.
water view!!
That's the pool.
lol@@WalkAboutWayne
Oh man! I was really looking forward to seeing you go around Bangkok for a couple of days😂 I'm excited to see where you will be heading to next!
I might be back in Bangkok soon 👍
It sounds like you had a positive and memorable first trip to Pattaya, Wayne. Nice one.
It was great, I'll never forget it . Cheers.
Thanks for all that hard work mate 🙏🏻
Thank you 🙏
Hotel has character love it great work m8
She was an old one, done the job though, slept like a baby.
Well I'm tipping Hua Hin again? But it could be Cha Am or even down to Prachuap Kiri Khan.
Could be mate, time will tell 👍
Good video, Bangkok is my favorite city in the world, great place.
I must admit, I do like Bangkok more nowadays. I've only spent short stays here over the years, so looking to stay a few more days soon.
Hi man...what app do you use for transport ?
Love the videos very simple and great
Google maps. It's the number app I have, without it, I can't travel.
Google maps tells you what trains and buses to catch.
I use grab for back up.
Cheers Wayne...heading out in a few weeks, have to say like you style of travel and I like the quiet places too 🙌
Good one Wayne!
Cheers Jack 👍
I’m so glad you did the Pattaya trip, you’ve changed my mind about going. I just got in to Ho Chin Minh city and this place is amazing, but overrun with western tourists
Pattaya is 50x better than ho chi min..of course depends what you like doing
Hi Dan, I enjoyed it for a few days, I could have stayed a few days longer but I was also happy to move on. Alot of westerners in Pattaya also. Have a good time in Vietnam mate.
Nice Wayne, yeah for sure can't complain for that price. Safe travels 👍
It done the job for the night 👍
450B in Bangkok, and the room looked ok nice one Wayne the older hotels got bigger rooms not like the new ones 20/22 sq mt.👍
It was a massive place. Not the best but great budget for one night.
Nice one Wayne. Not at all bad accommodation for the price especially within Bangkok. Safe travels and enjoy. Cheers 🤩
It was ok for 1 night mate, massive room. Not the best but close for walking in the morning. Cheers mate.
Happy days. What app do you use to book hotels is it Agoda?
Normally Booking..com, but Agoda sometimes.
450b in bkk. perfect for a solo traveler. nice find!
Yes, great price for a layover.
I'm a Namthip man for my bottled water Wayne. But love your reasoning for Singha water 😂
I've bought that a few times, it always seemed ok. I think they're all pretty similar. I did see a test where Sangha came out on top also. Hope all is well Ricky mate. 👍
Take it easy man take it easy ❤
Take it easy James, man, take it easy 👍
Did you book the hotel on booking or agoda? Love watching your blogs mate. I was in Thailand in January with the misses for 20 days and spent 10 nights in Bangkok in a hotel next to hua lampung. I like the super cheap hotels as it reminds me back in the day when I was travelling alone.
Hi Chris , thanks for liking the vlogs mate. Hope you had a great time in Thailand . I normally use Booking..com or Agoda. 99% of the time Booking..com. cheers mate
Missing you in Chiang Mai ! Touch Down, Come back ! 😄👍
I'm missing Chiang Mai. She's a beauty.
My last night in Chang Mai tonight i fly to Phuket tomorrow
Hope you had a good one Colin. Did you have rain in Chiang Mai? My mate was saying the smoke is better today.
@@WalkAboutWayne a little over night
Yes smoke is a little better ,you can just about see the mountain
Travelling with just a backpack - definitely a man after my own heart!
A very small backpack too. I've not got much stuff with me.
@@WalkAboutWayne The only way to go!
Out of the frying pan into the fire …… He’s in Bangkok ……. Thanks Wayne
Bobby Bangkok Dazzler mate!!
I also buy the Singa water. And Soda. I don't drink beer, but yeah, the water is better for sure.
Yes, it even taste better. I buy Single all the time now.
What do you use to edit on mate? Macbook?
Yes mate, MacBook 👍
Wow, 450 baht in Bangkok that's fantastic mate 👏 👌 👍 😀
It was a good deal. Like you said, for Bangkok, I can't complain.
Pool looks inviting, did you take a dip? 😂
I thought I'd give the pool a miss today 🤣
Try to get to south Jomtien by the fishing villages..
I've left now buddy .
YOU'LL BE BACK!!
Haha probably 👍
I'm thinking kanchanaburi or hua hin,
Would it not have been possible to get the bts to thonburi from ekkamai?
Could be mate, all will be revealed soon . Yes, I could have got the BTS 👍
Wow, really a lot of things going on in this episode. Action packed!
Gotta say I quite liked that hotel(not the channel so much).
Are you gonna spend some time in BKK?
It's a non stop Mardi Gras boyo! You dont like the channel, but you want to know where I'm going 🤣🤣.
Man, I ment the dirty ass channel outside the hotel, not your YT-channel😂
English, not my first language😅
I know you like to keep your destinations secret, but you should have put something on the community. There is a bus terminal in Jomtien and the baht bus from 2nd road goes straight to the terminal, would have saved you carting your bags the rest of the way.
I'm also curious as to how you pick where you stay, your process, who you use, etc. When I"m in Bangkok, I tend to pick my place based on how close to public transport it is. I prefer the areas on the MRT, as you have quick link to Sukhumvit and then easy access to the BTS via Asok.
I'm not really sure you state on your vlogs, but I get you wanted to stay in Thon Buri, it's a really nice region of Bangkok, but how did you pick this place? There are some awesome hotels in the same area that are similarly priced. I know it's only for 1 night, and I'll be honest, I've been caught out myself on plenty of occasions, but was the hotel what you expected it to look like, etc. but loving the trip so far buddy.
It wouldn't be an adventure if I did that mate. The channel isn't about what others want me to do 🤣. This hotel was perfect for my location also, I can walk to where I need to go the next morning. You don't get much for around the 400 Baht mark. I had no problems with my Hotel, it's exactly what you get for the price. it was perfect for where I needed to be.
Thanks for liking the vlogs mate 👌👌
Cheers 🍻
@@WalkAboutWayne no worries, just watching the new one now!
First few minutes of this video feel like a man hungover when he knows he shouldn't be, who did things he shouldn't have done, but somewhere in the dark of his mind knows he'll love remembering it when he's on his deathbed. FAIR PLAY!
Hahaha no comment. 👍
Wayne... The BTS is cheap and very eady to use. I mentioned earlier that I iwould like to tour the city on it and the MRT. Including the new incredible malls. Thanks.
Yes, BTS is cool. Day pass 150, not bad 👍
If indeed Hua Hin is your destination you could have caught the cheap bus from Jomtien bus station which takes you the airport, find a cheap hotel locally there and then back to the airport for the bus to HH.
Is the bus from BKK airport to HH?
boat to HH exist ?
Nice! But am I going to Hua Hin ? All will be revealed in my next video.
yes, or it was...@@Mark-England
Not sure, think there was one from Pattaya to HH a long time ago...@@TORXGAMING
In Bangkok you have to use the overpasses. Sometimes a block or three walk to get to one but trying to cross Bangkok traffic traffic busy roads is never recommended.
BTS is cool, yes.
6:29 coffee ☕😀. brother coffee ☕
You know me Alan, strictly water 👍
Good room for the price , couldn't believe the size of it . The pool needed a bit of a clean 😅😅 .
Massive room! It looks like a old Bangkok house turned into a Hotel. I gave the pool a miss 🤣
terminal 21 in bangkok asok is amazing 2
Nice!
I'd guess Cha-Am or Kanchanaburi next?
It could be 👍
Offer them a few extra baht and they will drop you at your destination. Those buses were 10 baht twenty years ago. At least that was what farang were expected to pay.
Sure, 20 Baht they take you anywhere 👍
Why not do much bangkok vlogs? That’s a city I’m very much interested in checking out. Feel like the content would be endless
Not the plan at the minute mate 👍
Pattaya make yr own reality U do a lot of running go U young thing
Cheers 👌🍻
Wayne are you going Hau hin ?
Hmmm, could be. The next episode will reveal my next destination.
Crazy Farangs on a roundabout! Later in the day it would be too busy. Cheap and cheerful works well and the room looks comfortable for the night . Next time you go back to pattaya. The airport bus station is in Jomtien , plenty of rooms to rent aswell. Enjoy your time in BKK . It’s too hectic for me .
All good mate. Thanks 👍
You know where's 3 hours south of Bangkok right! HUA HIN. loads of baht busses there to Wayne! 😂😂 I spy with my little eye........
🤣 Will I be heading back to Hua Hin. I could be a mate
Couldn’t imagine why you chose a hotel so far from bus station until you hinted at a next destination. Guessing you will catch the train at Thonburi station to Kanchanaburi and the Bridge Over the River Kwai. Great choice, if so. Just went there 2 months ago. Well worth the trip combined with the cemetery and a ride on the Death Railway.
I changed my destination at the last minute mate. I've heard Kanchanaburi is good. 👍
hi wayne bus price for pattaya-BKK?
150 Baht if I remember correctly mate.
Wayne, in case you don't know, Visakha Bucha day is 23rd May this year and the annual walk up Doi Suthep is probably the 22nd May. You have to do that. Thousands of people and great atmosphere for the 10km evening walk
I see it every year buddy. I live in Chiang Mai. I avoid it most years now 👍
I live here too and I love the occasion
Yeah, nothing wrong with it. I just don't go to it anymore mate. The first years I was here, I did. It's a great event 👍
I'd have taken the train, actually.. 😁 Or chosen a hotel near a train stop. Yeah, crossing the road in Bangkok can be.. adventurous. I'm surprised a hotel that old didn't have the customary window between the bathroom and the bedroom.. 😁
Yes, I could have got BTS I think. Wish I did now, instead of following Google.
@@WalkAboutWayne I used to take the bus to visit the Royal Thai Airforce Museum near Don Mueang. Back then that was the only way to get there from north Bangkok (other than taxis) and it was something like 45 minutes to an hour in a bus without airconditioning. Only cost 7 baht though. These days there's the BTS extension, there's a station right outside the gates. You should visit, they've actually got a Spitfire that you can get close enough to fondle. I also sometimes took the bus to go play table tennis (near the big stadium close to Ramkhamkhaeng University). It was the bus or the water bus (which, these days, is a lot easier to get on and off - you used to have to step over the gunwales and risk falling into the canal). They'll soon open a new train line going that way, too (I think it's the Yellow Line). Can't wait for that - both the bus and the water bus are hell during rush hour.
Once you visit Pattaya you will always return..i love it when i need some debauchery theres nowhere better..but also couldn't live there its not healthy long term
I'm sure I'll return. Don't think I could live in Pattaya either.
I’m guessing Kanchanaburi
Could be
Kanchanaburi me thinks.
Could be 🤔
I'm looking for a place for a week here from the UK, this hotel's asking £18 a night online, in May
Yes, the hotels change daily. I get cheaper places when I book really late .
Walk in peace wherever the roads take you, bro.
Thanks mate.
There's a video on youtube that tests all the thai waters 💧
Nice! Singha all the way 👍
Wayne it’s not the ritz one night you got a Bobby dazzler 😂
Bobby Dazzler mate 👌
Not sure I would want to live in Pattaya. Too much temptation that would lead to me becoming broke and maybe dying of a heart attack from all the excitement and overindulgence lol.
Yes, the temptation would win in the end. It would be hard for me to live a chilled life.
That hotel looks like it used to be an apartment complex
Yes, I think you could be right 👍
sky rail mate . better
BTS is cool for getting around 👍
Back to Jolly old England 😂😂😂
You're the first one to guess 🤣
Wayne you sowed your oats move on now 😂 Wayne St or LT 😂 😂
🤣🤣
You are leaving, Where is your luggage Mate?
On my back mate 👍
@@WalkAboutWayne I see. Traveling light that’s the way to go
Okay, now go pimp your boosted mojo my chiang mai guy
🤣🤣🤣
Mate I think it’s the first time I’ve seen you sweat
Yeah I used to it normally. I was sweating like mad in Pattaya though.
it's a very cheap hotel young man, I hope you checked for bed bugs
My idea also. Never saw a bed bug, but from what i've read, its my worst nightmare. BUt also hear stories about bed bugs in super expensive luxurious hotels, so thats no guarantee. Im always cautious, never keep my opened suitcase on the floor.
Very cheap ! Not a bad place. I haven't got time for bed bugs 👍
Bangkok is awesome for sk8boarding
Yes, it does look a good skating city
Thought you were stationing yourself down Pattaya way for a bit Wayne. Obviously need to catch up on previous vids. Maybe change your name from Walk-About Wayne to Roaming Wayne or Wondering Wayne....could see you singing The Wanderer - Dion. 🙏
Not really Mark, I wasn't staying long. I think I have sung The Wanderer on a few vids mate 🤣. Cheers bud.
Could you please stop walfeling on all the time , you must enjoy hearing yourself , best to treat yourself to a decent hotel room , and a good feed
What??? Who are you. Watch it or jog on mate.
It's Wayne's channel and he can do what he likes.If you don't like the waffling don't watch.Simple 🙄
That's definitely an old hotel room 😂. I stayed in a place in Jomtien for all of 1 hour 1 time. Got it for $12 Aussie dollars but learned my lesson 😂. Maybe I was just spoiled by some of the bargain hotels I got in 2022
It was definetly old, but a really cheap price. Good for 1 night.
