Watched the whole video, really like when you make so many stops and take a look around so we can see more of the amazing things you stumble on. Great job. 👍🙏💙🇹🇭
Another fabulous video from my favourite TH-cam channel. I watched all of this one twice already 😂. I've been (Im) patiently waiting for this one. Seriously I would watch the 2 hour and 8 hour ones if you posted them. The editing wouldn't worry me one little bit, probably more interesting without the editing tbh. My favourite parts of all your videos are when you stop and go somewhere unplanned, check it out, do a tour and ask prices, view menus etc. Makes me feel like its me doing it as that's what I do and it gives me so many ideas (and hopes) for when we finally get to travel again. Absolutely love your videos and this is one of my favourites. Thank you so much for doing these it's really appreciated and I cannot wait for more. Enjoy your day.
I think you should definitely allow more time than 20ish minutes for videos! Us here unable to be there would love to have more of the experience to take in. I'd easily sit here an hour watching your videos!
I've only spent 3 months in Thailand but my favourite thing to do I've discovered is exactly what you are doing. Riding a scooter exploring the island roads and stopping of to go see the beaches is just amazing. I'm definitely going to ride the exact route you have just posted. Some truly stunning locations. Just peace and quiet. Really great video thank you. Watched so many of your amazing videos. I'm exploring all these with you. Really great job 🎉
I drove that road twice a week for 4 months to take my brother in law from Nakhon Si Thammrat to a witch doctor in Donsak. Initially I was amazed at how much your vlog shows it has changed then realised I was rembering over 20 years ago. I almost bought a house at the south end of Sichon beach. When you drove past on the road it looked like a bungalow but it was 4 stories tall down the cliff, had an elevator on the side and all for 1.5 million baht. I thought about it for a month or two and decided to buy it. I went back in the rainy season and the cliff had eroded taking the house with it.
seeing all the beautiful beaches and not a high rise in sight....amazing....when i retire in thailand next year im going to spend a few days just on the road you where just on.....oh ...i watched the whole thing.....great video....
We watch every video from beginning to end. You are a lucky lucky man. Those beaches are heart breakingly beautiful. By the time we eventually get back to Thailand it will be over 2 years since our last visit 😭🇹🇭❤️
I was going to write a positive comment about your many stops it's absolutely exhilarating to watch all these different places near to each other. Anyhow I agree with all the positive comments that were made about this, and many other of your videos. Amazing content keep up the good work!
You make your videos so interesting that I always watch them to the end. Darn you! Now I have to put this coastal area on my bucket list! 5555 You do great videos; thank you for all your hard work and creativity! Cheers from up near the Arctic Circle!!
God morning from Sweden, Wow man, one of yours best video so far, Every beach deserv its on video, i demand it damn it. Keep feeding us with more often videos Have a Nice weekend bro!
Watched it all, STL. Really impressed with the mainland, will definitely be checking it out when I come over in December! Thanks bud, keep up the good work and stay safe!
Thanks for doing this series!!! I am in Surat Thani today and will go explore this section of coast instead of heading to Phuket. Thanks again for all your great videos!!!
Yep, watching all your videos to the end. Have now only 5 left, have then seen everyone to the end. Just let them come, I'm hungry to travel now. After you started talking in the videos, they became much more interesting. Thanks
WOW....didn't realize this area existed...I'll need to check it out when I get back in November Thanks for checking it out and vlogging about it. I'm trying to make Thailand my homebase I'll do a vlog as well
Enjoyed EVERY SECONDS of it. It's the journey that counts. Love when you made stops along the way. It it were an hour I would have watched the whole vid for sure. Oh, l love should- I-stay-or-should-I-go-now beach.
Loved the entire video, those that wander are not all lost sometimes they are just looking for the good stuff. Hope that things stay open for you this look like a really good trip.
Thx PJ Mac. Amidst the news of the 3rd wave here, yesterday AZ announced they'll have a local vax production facility running here soon and estimates 16 million jabs starting in June & ramping up from there. Other promising news is if Phuket, Samui & others can secure more jabs, the proposed 'sandbox' may yet open for already vaxxed travellers. So fingers crossed!
enjoying these older videos, we are moving to Hua Hin, not getting a motorcycle, buying a car right of the bat, much safer. Your videos have given my wife and I a lot to explore, thanks
This helped me a lot to plan my next motorbike / camping trip! Thank you for another awesome and informative video I too have the idea of leaving bkk and moving here
This is beautifull,i never imaged that the mainland uposit samui is so amazing. I visit samui since 1988,and now watching this,i wil visit next time first the places on your movie.🇹🇭🙏.Thank you very much.
Now that was well done - every stop was special - so get how u wanted to get there but not miss the beauty on the way - absolutely watched it all Hope there is a bit more of Sichon - great video STL 🇦🇺🙏👍🍻
Very interesting video !!! I am moving to Thailand on July, My GF hometown is in Sichon , Your video help me out to buy or build up the house to leave my rest of the life Love from Florida

Great trip plan! Love the train, almost took it again this time but got a great deal on a flight. Recommend to spend a day/night in Surat Thani too, I was really glad I did at the start of this trip, great town! - See: th-cam.com/video/koWAlX9hk_U/w-d-xo.html (btw this was just prior to the current wave here)

Both teams are suffering but at least I can live vicariously through you and your Chanel. I am hoping for a November Thai trip but it’s looking 50/50. I have 1 vaccine and will have 2 by august so let’s hope🙏🙏

I watched it all and my fav part of your videos is the side trips, its so beautiful so dont stop doing that..
Thanks! Sidetrips are in my DNA ;)
