Patong twice as expensive, Pattaya 10 times bigger, Patong better beach, Pattaya more relaxed.
I could not have said it any better, thanks for your comment:)
Dont forget the beautiful island Koh Larn, just 10 min with speedboat from Pattaya
นั่นคือส่วนเมือง แต่ความหลายหลายทางทะเลผมว่าภูเก็ตเหนือกว่า
Hey brother . I'm from India. I visited both these destinations. But what I want to confess is, that you touched my heart and conveyed here what I couldn't coz obviously I don't run a TH-cam channel. Already liked and subscribed. Good luck mate!
Hello I want to thank you for the positive comment, and also for the like and sub. I feel honored my video touched your heart:)
Really nice video, and helpful for me too - was wondering about exactly this choice!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, Sean. So glad to see your channel has been taking off. 26.8K subs?? NICE! Happy to see that the adventure continues for you.
Hello and thank you, I appreciate that:)
awesome video, I was looking for this comparison
James I am glad my video was able to help you. Thanks for watching:)
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 great job 👏
Very nice to see your video again!!!!
Good to hear from you, and thanks for watching:)
Excellent video and information tks you 🙏🇨🇮
Herb I am glad you liked my video, thanks for watching:)
Great information! Perhaps a video on Bang Saen, or Prachuap Khiri Khan some time?
Hello and thanks Joe, I will see what I can do:)
Great video my man. I’m still wrestling with where I want to live when I get to Thailand in a couple weeks. Leaning towards Bangkok but I’m very seriously considering Pattaya thanks to videos like yours. 🎉
Mike I appreciate the positive comment, That is great you will be moving to Thailand in a couple weeks, I would recommend checking out the different cities in Thailand to see which one you like better. Everyone you talk to will have a different opinion on which city is best in Thailand. I really boils down to what you like and your priorities. When I first came to Thailand I was in Bangkok for 1 month and I do like Bangkok, then I went to visit Pattaya and I found a great condo by the ocean for dirt cheap so I decided to stay in Pattaya for awhile. But I still plan to explore more of Thailand. Thanks for watching:)
@@bruceneutral3387 Hello no I stayed in different hotels when I was in Bangkok. But you can get 1 month condo rentals in some condos. anything less than 30 days is illegal for condo rentals in Thailand.
@@bruceneutral3387 If you are in Bangkok and you want to stay where the action is there is a good cheap hotel with a kitchen called Royal Ivory Hotel in Bangkok. This is where I usually stay when I go to Bangkok.
Love this video .. I have been both and love both ..
James thanks for watching:)
Good video. Was in Pattaya awhile ago. Plan to go to Phuket soon.
Hello I appreciate that, Phuket is fun, Obvioulsy you have to see Patong but you should also see Kata and Karon beach areas in Phuket.
ทะเลภูเก็ตสวยและน้ำใสสะอาดกว่ามากครับ
I enjoyed your clip Sean.
Spent a day in Pattaya on a cruise 3 years ago, and was not overly taken with it, but the cost of an ocean view condo looks very appealing in comparison to Phuket.
Hello and thank you, I appreciate the positive comment and I agree the Pattaya prices are hard to beat.
Hi Sean, glad to see that you are doing better after having Co-vid. This is an interesting and helpful video about the differences between Patong, Phuket and Pattaya. I would say that you made a great decision to live in Pattaya with your beautiful Condo at a reasonable price with an an Ocean view. I don't like very crowded areas with many people so, from just watching your videos, Pattaya would be my choice as well. With your parking ticket did you have to pay cash in the local currency or could be pay on a credit card? It was probably extra challenging not knowing the local language well to communicate with all involved to get your ticket paid?
Hello Ben, glad to hear from you, Yes Phuket is fun to visit but I Pattaya seems better for me in the long run. I actually did pay the ticket with Thai baht cash. Although most places here do accept credit cards. I always use my credit cards in the grocery stores. And most of the police do know some English as they deal with tourists all the time. Thanks for watching:)
Thanks for the comparison between both cities. It helped me out a bit. Would you have something similar with Hau Hin and Pattaya/Jomtien
Hello I have not been to Hua Hin yet but when I do I will be glad to make that video.
Hi Sean, very good comparison of both cities. Historically, Pattaya established itself as a popular destination for soldiers during the Vietnam War in the 1960s where as Phuket started a bit late in the 70s made popular by the backpackers. In infrastructure-wise, Pattaya is more established, but Phuket is catching up as a renowned island resort with international flights arriving from Europe, the Middle East, Aisa, and Eastern Europe including direct flight from Russia. The seas are more beautiful in Phuket but for Night Lifes, Pattaya is the best !
Hello and thank you, and I appreciate you sharing the knowledge about these two great places:)
Good Day Sean. Don't forget when Tsunami struck Phuket in 2004 resulting in 5,000++ fatalities Patong was one of the worst hit and frankly speaking, I still have fear of living in Phuket especially Patong area...😂
@@hanstan4894 Hello it is true Phuket has been hit by a Tsunami but they are rare, the 2004 Tsunami was a bad one but that was almost 20 years ago, Every country has natural disasters that kill people, including the US with its Hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, heat waves, floods and fires every year.
Thanks for your video
Thanks for watching:)
Great Video another place i highly recommend is Da Nang in vietnam we had an amazing time.
Thank you for the comment, I would actually love to see Vietnam. It is on my bucket list :)
Hi Sean. Hope in the future, you will explore and share a video about Penang. It is just south of Phuket. Penang ranked quite high for international tourists.
And do also visit Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia.
Hello I will see what I can do, thanks:)
Sorry you had difficulty finding your blood pressure meds in Patong, Phuket. I too have the same high BP issue. As a work-around you can always try Tenormin or its generic brand, Atenolol. I’ve used both and both are available at Pharmacies in Pattaya.
Hi Sir, new to your channel, I was thinking about coming to Pattaya after the 1st of the year to hopefully retire there, I live in Los Wages nevada😆 soon to be living in Tailand? Nice video 👍👍
Living in Vegas. Planning my retirement travel
John thank you, that is great you will be coming to Pattaya soon, I am sure you will like it here:)
Learn ho to spell
What’s up Sean it’s almost 2 AM. Getting ready to start my day at the salt. Mines in California. Sorry I haven’t watched your video lately real busy.
How about if you seen any good churches.? Glad you are doing great.
Joseph
Big Joe it is good to hear from you, I feel your pain for working those crazy hours, I do not miss it. It sounds like you healed well from the surgery. I have heard people tell me about some churches in the area but I have not checked them out yet. Tell everyone I said hello:)
Did you checkout RaiWai in the south of Phuket, it’s a much more relaxed place and a few very beautiful beaches nearby. If I wanted to live in Phuket RaiWai is the place I would pick! 😊
Hello Roy, Yes I did drive to RaiWai for one day and you are right, it is a hidden a gem. I actually ended up there by accident because I got lost and once I was there I decided to explore the area. Thanks for watching:)
Hey, nice video man! I've been in Pattaya this year and im going to visit Patong later this year. What exactly do you mean by "dating life" is better then on Pattaya? Like tinder and picking up girls on the streets? I think as a Tourist who visits this place just for a couple of weeks, ur not really "Dating" or am i getting it wrong? They just pay?
Hello that is great you will be going to Phuket soon, You will have a lot of fun there. I recommend also seeing Kata beach and Karon beach area in Phuket. From what I can see there are more single woman to date in Phuket than Pattaya, even on tinder there are more women in Phuket area. But as far as freelancers, or women for money it would be fairly even.
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 oh okay, makes sense. Thank you for answering
Apple Cider Vinegar with Honey or Maple Syrup or other type of "sweet" or non sweetner at all, for any level of high blood pressure, takes about one (1) to two (2) weeks to see results, will remain normal a life-time if consumed much less thereafter, and, including numerous other Herbal Powders can be consumed once or twice a day-which also provide numerous additional health benefits simultaneously. ACV, it works, has never failed.
Hello thanks for the advice, I will try it.
There are Knuckle heads everywhere. So you have to factor in the Knuckle head metric. I thought there were many more problems with Tourist type people. So I am in Pattaya. I am just around the Block from you in Pattaya. I go for walks right in front of your condo.
Hello Neighbor, I agree with your thoughts on the tourist people in Phuket. Thanks for watching:)
Boy if Patong is edged out by Pattaya you just saved me a trip there. I guess I'll have to try Chiang Mai next.
Rick I want to thank you for watching my video, in this video I shared my opinions, but there are other people who will have a different opinion. I definately recommend seeing both places to see which one you like better.
You should check Hua Hin imho it blows Pattaya away.
@@rickmccann4016 I would actually like to see Hua Hin. It is on my bucket list:)
And the beaches to the south....Sam Roi Yad beach OMG! Like heaven. Hua Hin was just rated by Forbes as one of the top 3 retirement places in the world. Take my word for it, Pattaya has women but so does Hua Hin and a hell of a lot more. I had to leave Pattaya because there was just limited places to go and to difficult to drive in the traffic. Not here! You wont get a condo right on the beach because they only have houses and hotels on the beach basically making the beaches much cleaner. They do have a lot of western style malls and restaurants, but hey they are there if you want them, you dont have to go to them if you dont want. I like the food courts that are much more accessible and the food is cleaner. I felt very unsafe with the food in Pattaya, again not here!@@livebeforeyoudie9984
Give Pattaya anytime of the year love the place
George thanks for the comment:)
I prefer Phuket. I like the easy access to Krabi and the Andaman Islands.
Hello, Phuket is awesome and many people will have different opinions on which place works for them. I have not seen Krabi yet but I hear it is nice.
Surprised no one talking about AQI.
Tried to bring my family to Pattaya long-term twice this year. Both times my mom had breathing complications within a couple of days which forced us to leave.
Phuket's air quality seems more promising...
I am sorry to hear about your mother, I personally have not seen or heard of anyone having problems with the air in Pattaya.
There are some other considerations to consider Patong has much nicer water cleaner, and the beaches have much nicer sand if you are there for the beach itself, that would be the better choice. However, if you are going there to be with the ladies. Then handsHans down, Pattaya is the place to be.
Thanks for your comment:)
Thumbs up 👍 I still say Phuket is the best outside Patong
Hello, I did also like Kata beach and Karon beach and Raiwai in Phuket. Thanks for your comment:)
There is an epic island in the andaman sea which I won’t name which is 1 hour from Phuket but is like an untouched paradise. Only locals know about it and it’s a Muslim island a bit quiet for tourists.
Hello this place sounds great:)
Phi phi don
I am a beach ocean type person, and prefer swimming in the OCEAN VS POOL, so which area is less polluted or should I consider some other part of the world? I am seriously looking at relocating to Thailand just to stretch my retirment dollars.
Hello John good question. I will be honest I have been to all the beaches in Pattaya and most of the beaches in Phuket and the oceans look fine to me. I do not see the oceans in Thailand being anymore unsanitary than the oceans in the US. Good luck with what ever you decide:)
YHi Sean, i just returned from Thailad where i stayed for one year and ou forgot to mention that Bangkok is 1 1/2 hour away from Pattaya so therefore i prefer Pattaya instead of Phuket.
Good point, thank you:)
Flight from phuket to Bangkok one way £23 cheap and fast.
@@coffee_uk Good point:)
How do you conduct banking while traveling? It can't all be ATM's or Western Union.
Hello, I usually use my ATM card from my US bank to get money from an Atm every month. I also do have a Thailand bank account that I use sometimes but not often. If you have a Charles schwabb account they pay back all atm fees.
If you’re a single guy then go to Pattaya. If you’re anyone else probably Patong is a bit better. But to get out to Patong from bkk is also a long journey. Hour flight then a 1.5hr mini bus. But like no joke here. If you’re a single guy Pattaya is way way way off the hook. It’s unreal!!!
Hello I appreciate your comment:)
It’s called tidal wave
Okay, I had that same Christmas tree in Thailand 😂😂😂😂
😂🤣, Chad I remember you said you stayed in Phuket for awhile.
Been to Patong twice, once May 2022, then again February 2023. It changed, a lot, in that time. It has been ruined by citizens of a certain country who have taken over the whole island. It is also far too expensive now. I will probably come back at some time in the future, but probably for just a few days and I would stay in Karon beach area instead.
Thanks for your comment:)
Which country ruined it? Trying to decide between the two
As far as Blood pressure Medication I get Zestril 10mg.. I can get it at ANY Boots pharmacy.
Hello, I have not heard of Zestril. I was actually put on Lisinopril in the US and I was glad to see I can buy it over the counter here in Pattaya, so I just assumed Phuket would also carry it, boy was I wrong. Thanks for your comment:)
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 Zestril is just generic for Linsopril. I don't know how well it works as I don't check my BP. Hey. I walk past your condo every night on my walk. Lots of stray dogs...and Poop.
Zestril is the brand name, lisinopril the generic.
@@yeahright532 Oh ok thanks for the advice:)
Ha, yes it is true there are many stray dogs here, I feed them sometimes, I rarely see any poop on the street though. If you walk past my condo everyday I have probably seen you, but I am usually on my motorbike. I try to check my blood pressure everyday, I recently changed my diet and it has really helped my blood pressure so I only take the lowest dose of medication now.
Phuket is better for relaxing , looking at sunsets on the beach drinking cocktails and chill at the pool hotel and bar , better holiday destination if just want to relax it is also nearer an airport , Pattaya is better for long stay cheaper and also more a party environment also more options to meet women .
Thanks for your comment:)
Hey I started watching this video like 5 days ago, it's stopped abruptly and when I went to look it up on your channel it wasn't there what happened?
Hello yes I apologize for that. When I uploaded my video the first time, TH-cam labeled my video as inappropriate. So I took the video down so I could redo it and I cut out some of the good parts that TH-cam did not like.
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 TH-cam🤦 it's just getting worse and worse... I hope the new CEO is not under the impression that we are a pack of delicate four-year-olds like Susan did 😂
@@kevbocometh I did not know TH-cam got a new CEO, but you are right TH-cam seems to be getting more strick about what is considered Appropriate. I personally did not see anything in my first video that I thought was inappropriate, but TH-cam is the boss so I have to go with it.
I subscribed. Great video........I stayed in bangkok recently for a month may-june and now im going to phuket for a month nov-dec ( which i think is a better time ) Question. i traveled solo in bangkok and totally felt safe. I am traveling solo in PHUKET for a month. I would think there is going to be a lot more to do. Any advice? I am American and im just hoping people are as nice in bangkok as phuket. The woman scene in bangkok was so easy. Anyways, im pretty sure it should be quite easy to meet single hot women. Any advice when going to phuket for a month? One person said,,,,when drinking beers........always get in a bottle. Not really worried about getting scammed. Just want to have super fun and will probably island hop.
Hello Mike, Thanks for the sub:)
I would say you for sure should see Patong beach, Kata beach and Karon Beach. And Phuket is as friendly and safe as Bangkok. They are definately a different vibe though. Like comparing New York to Los Angelas. I actually just released a new video about Phuket that might answer your questions. Here is the link..
th-cam.com/video/k6rJ852euXI/w-d-xo.html
Can't argue with any of your points but the Patong negatives has me never wanting to go back. You forgot the taxi scams btw.
Hello and thank you, I actually did not get many taxis while I was there. I rented a motorbike. I did get a taxi to and from the airport though.
Fact is, every single apartment I talked to had a MINIMUM one year lease.
I like the fact that by living in Patong you have access to the whole of Phukets amazing beaches which Pattaya lacks.
But for pure entertainment & all round cheaper cost of living then Pattaya 👍
Hello I agree Phuket has great beaches, probably better than Pattaya beaches, but I do also like Pattaya beaches. Thanks for the comment:)
Phuket is way to go . Good things come more pricy.
Thanks for your comment:)
To fly were ur located what are airport would that be
You can fly directly to Phuket but if you want to go to Pattaya you will need to fly to the Bangkok airport and take 2 hour taxi or bus to Pattaya
Hey buddy, Like I always say to youtubers, you do you so I'm not trying to control your content, I just noticed you leave out a pretty serious factor. Pattaya beaches are dirty. The water isn't great either, Every beach I've visited in the Phuket area is awesome. If you are in Phuket, you are a 2 hour drive from Khao Sok, very close to the ferry that takes you to Phi Phi, you can also get a boat or ferry to Krabi. You are right about price and you probably arent wrong about meds and other things because it is considered an island and all islands have a logistic problem. We have a house in Chiangmai, and while I'd rather live on an island, my wife is right about how unrealistic it is because of cost and availability of day to day things.
Hello again my friend, You know I have heard a few other people tell me the Pattaya beaches are dirty, But to be honest I just do not see it that way. I drive by the beaches almost everyday and I think the Pattaya beaches are beautiful. I agree the Phuket beaches are probably more beautiful though. I have not been to Chiang Mai or Khoa Sok but I hear it is beautiful. There still is much of Thailand I would like to see.
You mentioned you live in Chiang Mai and it sounds like you have a lot of history and knowledge with Thailand. Thanks for sharing:)
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 I'm spoild from living next to the beach almost my whole life. Huntington beach makes Pattaya look horrible which is why its unacceptible. Have you been to Koh tao? You need to see some good beaches, there are many. Do you not go in the water?
Aw yes that would explain why we have different views on the beach. I have never lived by the ocean in the US but I have been to the ocean many times throughout my life. I love the ocean But the ocean was always far from where I lived.
I have actually been in the water in all of the Pattaya beaches, and they seem fine to me, but honestly I do not get in the water often. I have a fear of sharks. But I love to be able to see and smell the ocean. And you are right I definately need to see other places than Pattaya.
I have not seen Koa Tao either, but Chiang Mai is next on my list. I will make some video about my trip:)
You’ve sold me now just have to convince the missus it’s a good idea 😂
Ha good luck :)
I have condo for rent in pattaya near jomtien beach for 1-3 months 146 square meter with ocean view only 900 usd per month
Hello that is a big condo, are you renting out this condo or are you renting it yourself?
How do travelers manage the mosquito borne diseases over there? Do you have to take any preventatives or bug sprays? Perhaps the medical is just so good you can treat after if something happens easier and you don't have to worry about any of it?
Hello I was also concerned about mosquitos before I came to Thailand, but to be honest I saw a lot more mosquitos in California than I see in Thailand. I have been in Thailand for 9 months and I have only been bitten 2 times. they do have mosquitos here but nothing like I thought they would, and I personally have not heard of anyone getting sick from mosquitos, I am not saying it does not happen but not often. And you can also get sick from mosquitos in the US.
Malaria is not really an issue in the south of Thailand. Dengue exists but is very rare. Just use some spray.
@@Nlav26 Thanks for the comment:)
Dengue fever put me in bed for 3 days but it's no big deal. Just deal with it bro.
@@VarietyGamerChannel I have heard Dengue Fever is bad stuff.
So if i follow the same dream as you.... Having such a nice appartment as you.... how much money is safe to go immigrate there?
I am not sure your age or what kind of visa you would qualify for. If you are over 50 you can get a retirement visa but there are income requirements. Either you have to make at least 65,000 baht a month or you can keep 800,000 baht into a Thailand bank account.
When you can't find medicine in Patong do you mean the brand you want or just the medicine (active ingredient) that you can't find? I find it hard to believe that you can't get heart pressure medicine in Patong!
Honestly if I was gonna stay in Phuket I would never stay in Patong. I would go to Rawais i think. that place just have a much cooler vibe!
Hello no Patong did not carry my medicine, I did not really care what brand it is as long as they have the ingredient. And for some reason I had a heck of a time finding it. I am not sure about other blood pressure medicines.
You really should make more videos dude. Your one of the reasons im traveling SE Asia. Im 58. Texas born and raised. Retired in 2020 got bored,rented my house in Austin and hit the road. Didnt like where America was headed and just didn't want to be there anymore. Im in Okinawa now. 2 months in Japan so far. I dont wanna leave! Its good being around people who still have respect and manners. America needs to take lessons and end that Woke bullshit! Lol. Headed to China for a few weeks then slowly headed towards Thailand. Anyway thanks for the videos bud. Your inspiring more people than you think. Take care buddy.
Mike I want to thank you for your positive comment. I really appreciate your kind words. I realize I have not been very active on TH-cam lately and I apologize, I have been busy doing other things but I always plan to get back to making videos soon. I will be honest when I read comments like yours it makes me feel honored that I am able to help or enfluence other people who are also interested in escaping the craziness and starting over in another country. And It sounds like you are doing great. I have heard great things about Japan and the people there. We seem to be on the same page about Asian people being more kind and respectful than in the US. This is one of the things that has drawn me to Asia. I would love to also visit Japan eventually, although I have heard it is expensive there. Enjoy your travels and keep me posted:)
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 Sounds good. I'll stay in touch. If I'm ever in your area I might PM you for some quik advice or a cold beer. Allright man. Take care.
You might look at relaxed cheap and chill in Goa India
Do you have any regrets about selling your house and moving abroad? Do you miss family / friends?
Hello, no I do not have any regrets about selling everything and moving. Most of my family is gone now. I am happier in my new life for sure.
Have you had your blood pressure checked by a doctor since moving out of the US? You may no longer need medication...
Hello, I actually check my blood pressure almost daily. I have recently changed my Diet and it has helped my blood pressure a lot. Now I only take the lowest dose of medication.
Rayong best of all. No tourists. 555
Thanks for the comment:)
Phuket for better.
I used go to Phuket until become little Rusia. 😢
Thanks for your comment:)
Which city has more English speaking people. Do you speak Thai?
Bob great question. In my experience Bangkok seems to have more English speaking people. But there is still a lot more people who do not speak English or speak little English there.
Patong transport is difficult and expensive. Pattaya is much easier and cheaper. Phuket very difficult to Grab due to lack of cars.
I heard that Phuket has gotten worse with transport and crowds since I was there last.
How much the condominium in phuket
Hello I did a little pricing when I was there and I did see some decent deals. I recommend checking out Lazudi.com and a few other websites to see some prices.
Thank you
@@imadmuna1 Anytime 👍
Tsunami prone?
Hello John obviously you are talking about the Tsunami that hit Thailand in 2004. It was a horrible event but that was actually 17 years ago. Tsnamis are very rare and of course every country has natural disasters.
Phuket restricts tall buildings as new construction island wide. 4 stories near beach and 7 or 8 in land. The few tall buildings you see were built before the new law.
Hello thanks for the comment:)
I have to say, I haven’t been to Pattaya, but I prefer Phuket. What I’ve heard from locals, especially girls. It all boils down to Phuket is a tourist destination. Younger crowd and people there mainly for short term stay. Especially near Patong. Whereas Pattaya is mainly older people, retirees, long term digital nomads, etc. That’s why it’s cheaper. But if you’re in Phuket, a bit away’s from Patong, it can be cheaper and more relaxed.
Thanks for your comment:)
เผื่อนักท่องเที่ยวยังไม่ทราบนะครับว่าภูเก็ตและย่านไชนาทาวน์ของกรุงเทพมีค่าครองชีพสูงที่สุดในประเทศไทย
Hello yes I have seen that prices are higher in Bangkok and Phuket. But still these prices are much cheaper than western prices. Thanks for your comment:)
All that are true as a thai here i totally agree what all been said on the clip... but anyway my choice would be pattaya. More compact and complete with all retirement will need.
Hello thank you, I always like to hear comments from Thai people:)
Phuket has a much younger crowd. Pattaya has too many old men with younger girls
Yes I believe you will see old me with young women all over Thailand. Thanks for watching:)
pattaya is cheaper than patong 10 times for transportation
Thanks for your comment:)
Please learn the difference between "woman" and "women". Thanks
Don't rent a scooter and 99% you will not have an interaction with the police, who may claim you are "drunk" and demand a big fine on the spot.
One thing you forgot to mention is the staggering amount of Russians on Phuket that literally are taking over that place. Not that they aren't any in Pattaya but not nearly in same numbers. On a side note not that I have anything against them, in fact I like them so much I even learned Russian language. However they tend to bring some off their not so popular behavior which we are not so used se from thai people.
Hello Jackie, that is great you learned Russian, I hear it is a very difficult language to learn. It's true I did see many Russians in Phuket and I see many Russians in Pattaya, Most of the Russians I have met have been very nice people. I believe with all the problems they have in Russia now is causing many Russian people to look for some place more safe.
Absolutely agree
comments deleted, Phuket is better😂
Thanks for the comment:)
Money talks 😂
Both places drowning in Russians who should never have been allowed in but Thailands greed knows no bounds
Great video except for your support towards the animal park. That was a disgrace
Hello Pete I understand your concern about the animal park. It was actually 2 different animal parks I went to. One was for tigers and one was for Elephants. These animal parks are actually protecting these animals, The elephant park takes elephants away from people and places who can not take care of the elephants. and the tiger park is protecting the tigers from going extinct, and they do not get funding so they rely on the money from the visitors to help take care of these animals. Things are different in Thailand.
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 Tigers are not going extinct in Thailand,these tiger zoo''s are really tiger farms breeding tigers for traditional medicines in places like China, I've seen many programs about these tiger farms/zoos, horrific!! stay away from them.
i will still take phuket over Pattaya has a better vide better mountain sea views and beaches, Pattaya is full of old men that look at you strange and no one ever seems to be on the beach probably because so many old people,its only better for condos but can still get good places in Phuket and the hotel prices are cheaper just avoid tuk tuks
@@brettchun38 Thanks for your comment:)
Hello, The tigers at this sanctuary are bred and raised to be around people since they are babies and they have spent their entire lives at this sanctuary. They make money from the tourists who pay to see and pet their tigers so they do not need to sell their tigers for medicine. Google does say Thailand tigers are not extinct but the tiger numbers are low and they are always in danger from poachers who do sell them for medicine. This sanctuary actually protects the tigers from these poachers.
Say NO to child´s prostitution!!!!
Hello I have had other people mention this in the comments in the past, personally I have been to the Redlight districts in Bangkok, Phuket and Pattaya and I have never seen any child prostition since being in Thailand. I am not saying it does not exist but it is not something that is common or seen in public.
Yes, but allover the world, I have not seen any in Thailand.
Dating: Its just not smart for guys to date women in pattaya, bangkok, or Phuket. Been there done that. lol Also read a lot and watch a lot of videos as I'm sure you have. FRom a thais perspective, Pattaya is looked down on as gold digger central. You want to find someone worthy of dating, find someone in another city thats not known for tourism. Even, non professionals in tourist areas tend to be gold diggers. You may think, its only a few dollars compared to dating in the usa, but trust me, it starts out small and before you know it you are out, lots of money. I have lots of thai friends, they will tell you, be careful and find someone not in Pattaya, Bangkok, or phuket....
Hello I appreciate your advice and thank you for sharing your experience:)
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 WE are coming to thailand in november. There is no rules for me but one. (we aren't going to pattaya) lol
@@livebeforeyoudie9984 By the way, I'm not judging. I've been to Pattaya more than a few times. On a 2 week trip though, its a one or two day thing. there is so much to see in thailand that being in pattaya gives you zero idea of what thailand is about. ITs a world wide issue. in southern california, Id go somewhere and people who live in the same city would be ooing and ahing about it because they never saw it. The main isue for me in Pattaya is its a destraction. Its like going to Vegas. Thats all you see.
You're missing out bruv. Also, Pattaya is a great place to invite a prospective girlfriend or partner to. Find one in a smaller city and ask them to come enjoy a week or two with you in Pattaya. @@fastj1962
ในประเทศไทยมีสถานที่เพื่อการอยู่อาศัยที่ดีสงบและราคาถูกมากกว่าที่คุณคิดมีหลายจังหวัดที่เหมาะกับการอาศัยแต่สำหรับที่ภูเก็ตและพัทยาเหมาะกับเป็นสถานที่ท่องเที่ยวและถ้าคุณสังเกตุคุณจะเห็นว่ามีชาวต่างชาติที่นั่นเยอะมากๆเพราะว่าชาวต่างชาติส่วนใหญ่ชอบทะเลที่ประเทศไทยและบางคนคิดว่าจะหาคู่เดตและบ้านที่นั่นได้ง่ายกว่าสำหรับฉันซึ่งเป็นคนไทยฉันคิดว่าคุณควรจะออกไปสำรวจที่จังหวัดอื่นๆในประเทศไทยด้วยและอย่าเพิ่งตัดสินทุกๆอย่าง ทุกประเทศในโลกมีทั้งคนดีและไม่ดีแต่สำหรับฉันคิดว่าคนไทยส่วนใหญ่จะจริงใจกันคุณและไม่หวังผลประโยชน์จากคุณแต่คุณต้องออกไปสำรวจให้มากและใช้เวลานานๆเพื่อศึกษาวัฒนธรรมของประเทศไทยและปรับตัวให้มากกว่านี้อย่าเพิ่งฟังใครให้สัมผัสด้วยตัวเองไม่ว่าจะสถานที่หรือผู้คนฉันหวังว่าคุณจะได้เจอกับคนที่ดีๆและมีคู่ชีวิตที่ปฏิบัติกับคุณและดูแลคุณอย่างจริงใจที่นี่(ประเทศไทยยังมีอีกเยอะที่คุณต้องลองไป)ฉันแนะนำให้คุณหาบ้านหรือที่อยู่ในจังหวัดอื่นๆที่ไม่ใช่ภูเก็ตหรือพัทยามันจะราคาถูกกว่าและดีแล้วค่อยๆวางแผนออกท่องเที่ยงและสำรวจแต่ละจังหวัดไปเรื่อยๆฉันคิดว่าคุณจะต้องเจอบ้านและเพื่อนและสภาพแวดล้อมที่เหมาะกับคุณและจะเป็นที่ ที่คุณจะอยู่ได้ตลอดไป ขอบคุณสำหรับการแชร์ประสบการณ์ของคุณฉันเพิ่งได้ติดตามช่องของคุณและฉันก็ยังดูไม่ครบทุกvdoของคุณฉันจะติดตามดูไปเรื่อยๆนะคะ ขอบคุณค่ะ
