    Love your videos! However, it’s only hard to find a condo in the kingdom of Thailand that allow pets, otherwise there’s a TON of condos available for all budgets. Additionally, quite a few condos offer free shuttle to BTS/MRT stations. There is actually a few the supply free breakfast for residents as well as a 7-11 in the building 😮
    I hope you enjoy your new condo! 🎉

    Welcome to Ladprao, guys! I was born and raised here and lived most of my life in the area. I’m staying somewhere else now with my girlfriend, but Ladprao will always feel like home. It’s the most popular residential areas in all of Bangkok, and honestly, I’d say it’s the best! It’s super central, with all the main roads and highways connecting here, so you can get to just about anywhere. That said, the traffic here is infamous, probably the worst in Bangkok. But hey, it’s not like Sukhumvit is any better, right? 🤣
    Oh, and don’t forget to check out Chok Chai 4
    By the way, be careful when walking Bruno here. Ladprao wasn’t really designed for walking, especially with a dog. It might be better to take him to a park that allows dogs for a safer and more relaxing walk.

    • @jamemax
      @jamemax วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I gotta say, there’s a reason Thong Lor is so popular with foreigners. It’s modern, clean, and really safe. It has that trendy vibe that suits a more Western lifestyle.
      Ladprao, on the other hand, is a lot more local. It’s not as walking-friendly, and the lifestyle here is a bit different. We’re a car-centric society, so walking around, especially with dogs, isn’t as common. It’s more typical for people living in villas, but most people tend to stay within their area and drive when they need to go anywhere. But don’t worry, you’ll definitely find your rhythm and adapt just fine! 😄

    • @ChovyTravel
      @ChovyTravel  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      100% Agree! I think Ladprao is definitely one of the best areas! We’re loving it! I know exactly what you mean 😁. I think traffic is worse for sure at Sukhumvit.
      Will put that on the list! Thank you! 🥰
      Our community is more than enough to circle around for Bruno 😁

    • @ChovyTravel

      @@ChovyTravel It’s great to hear that he has a place to walk! I was so sad seeing him say goodbye to the cleaner 😭. When she said, “You finally leave? Don’t go, please don’t go na 🥹,” my heart just broke.
      As for Chok Chai 4, it’s a really long, deep soi that feels like its own local hub. There are so many restaurants and food spots to explore. If Sukhumvit has Thong Lor and Ekkamai, then Chok Chai 4 is Ladprao’s version of that. The market there is especially famous among locals for its food, and it’s also a major hotspot during Songkran! Families from all over Bangkok come here to celebrate and enjoy the festivities. Definitely worth checking out!
      Another area you might want to explore is Town in Town (officially listed as Srivara Road), which is close to Ladprao. It’s a strip packed with unique and interesting restaurants you can’t find anywhere else. You might love it there too, so be sure to check it out!

    • @jamemax
      @jamemax 22 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Oh, I also have another recommendation. On your free time, please visit Ban Tad Thong! It’s super close to MBK and Chula University and has quickly become the newest street food heaven in Bangkok. Every restaurant there is unique and trendy, and the area is always buzzing with uni students and young people. Lately, it’s been full of Chinese and Korean tourists too, lol.
      I’d suggest researching the area a bit before you go because there’s so much to explore from day to night, and you don’t want to miss out! I’d definitely call it a must-visit.
      If you have time, you should also check out Sam Yan on the same day since it’s close to Chula as well. The food scene there is right up your alley, very underrated among tourists but a longtime favorite for locals. You’d love it! Actually, you could just follow chef Baek Jong-won’s videos on TH-cam. He even visited both Town in Town and Sam Yan.

    I think it is the same everywhere. I,m from Malaysia and have been living neighboring for the last few decade. Even in Singapore it is difficult to find a place that is really ideal as it is always fully booked. Maybe it is due to scarcity as there is shortage of condo in this country. Unless if you willing to pay more, surely you can find the right place.
    I have experience living in Bangkok for a year and finding a place is not easy due to barrier of communication. Most of the agent from don't speak English. U need to find a agency that recruit agent that can speak multiple language to make things smoother.
    I think to avoid all those hassle, u need a translator (maybe an apps or so) and ask for them for video tour or photo before viewing. Most of the agent list their property by area and they work within a district. So you need to strategies your search as this will help you into getting a the place you really want. My suggestion is,
    1) Narrow down the area or district where you want to stay. Identified the condo or place which is most convenience for you. You need to do some research and start getting familiar with the area before viewing the condo.
    2) Engaging with the right agency. Let them know what you want. Communicate effectively. Study the property portal and see how it works. The property portal did show some agent cover and specialise in certain condo, so look for them and tell them what you looking for. (the type of layout, pricing, design, direction etc)
    You have to understand that agent work for commission, they are commission earner. So the time they spend with you determine how much they going to bring hone at the end of the day. Why should they spend so much time on you when you don't even know what you exactly want ? They will just feel this chap is just surveying and not serious or in the urgency to find a place. The conversation will probably just ended there as they can,t find something that match your requirement.
    I think that all I can share at the moments. Go the ground and get things cracking, I wish you to have a pleasant experience in your next house hunting.

    • @ChovyTravel
      @ChovyTravel  2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    There are more than twenty pet-friendly condos in Bangkok, it's strange that you have problems finding an apartment.
    In my opinion, the most convenient location of the condo near the Benjakiti Park, as it is the center of the city, there are several BTS and MRT stops nearby, also there are many restaurants, cafes, shops and other pet-friendly places nearby, and most importantly, there is a large area for walking dogs in Benjakiti park.
    I live with a 20+ kg dog near this park

    • @ChovyTravel

      I think It really depends on preference. Based on what we were looking for, it was difficult. Dealing with Agents, Owners, Availability, Location, Budget, Public Transportation and etc.
      Our first time experience was rather easy but this time around not so much so it really depends on timing as well.
      Glad things were easy for you 😃
      Sounds like a great fitting place for you and your dog 🥰

    wow, the apartments in Bangkok are so small. and they're luxury condos, right?
    currently i'm living in a big two-storey house all by myself. and it's way too big for just me and my lonesome. a duplex would be most suitable.

      If you think Bangkok is tough, you ain’t built for the real world. I know it’s a joke but if you can’t last one night in BKK then you probably won’t last anywhere else unless it’s Tokyo or Singapore or Zurich. It’s probably akin to saying the kiddie pool at the local rec center is rough seas.

      Hello! We do love the Porch Potty (Size Small). However, we were not a huge fan of their artificial grass. It doesn’t drain too well so it holds the urine.
      Therefore, we use a DIFFERENT Artificial Grass.
      We will link the Porch Potty and also the replacement grass we use in the description of the video.
      It seems to drain way better and it’s the perfect size for the Porch Potty (Small Size)
      Make sure you select the link, we will provide it with the CORRECT SIZE.
