I'm in Asia until Christmas now, so expect plenty of CONTENT over the next few months! Still finding my feet and adapting to working while travelling so things might not be perfect initially, hope you enjoy this one though! Would appreciate your support on this video as always!
Just discovered Eds channel a few days ago. Ive binged watched every vid, and was so surpised to see him unfer 100k subs. This man puts the effort in! Would love to see him do a surviving on £1 a day
Tuk Tuk is the most expensive way to travel in Bangkok and yet still cheaper than anything in the UK. Elephant pants are only ever in fashion in Thailand, but they really are in fashion there, even the locals wear them. It's not safe to talk about the royal family in Thailand, it can end up with you in prison. In fact even giving a bad review on a business in Thailand can get you in big trouble. They don't respond to criticism well. £28 for a hostel is ridiculous, they saw you coming, you can get hotels for that. Also come to Malaysia. I have been here since 2009, never going back to the UK.
If you stay till xmas (xmas is great in Bkk) when you look back at the meals and prices you will laugh! You will be well versed int thai dishes and street food! Enjoy yourself!
They really do respond poorly to criticism, taking responsability is not their thing. Telling staff that the toilet is clogged or the shower is cold and they look at me as if i'm the reason they don't have decent plumbing lol
Pocari Sweat is banging. Have had it throughout south east Asia. Hits the spot everytime...and yes, from the wide range of drinks available, I picked it for the name!
I wonder if more people will say hello now your video's and this channel is finally getting the love it deserves. Love the videos. Hope you are having a great time travelling ❤
Street food is the best in thailand the ones that have the wok over a flaming barrel and tiny plastic chairs on the pavement i was eating pad thai for less than £1 when i was there
I was in Thailand a few months ago. Even in touristy areas its easy to eat for 2-300 baht, and you can get pad Thai for under 100. You overspent. Plus a hostel for £28?! That's like hotel room price.
I absolutely love Bangkok. It has to be one of my favourite cities i've ever been to, i'm so glad you enjoyed it dude! I've managed to gain 4,000+ subscribers in the last 28days with some of my travel vlogs and it's extremely fun but sometimes can get a bit lonely so if you ever need a travel buddy or any company let me know. 🤙✌
I know. I was in a hotel in Hua Hin, AC, good shower, good bed, safe, English TV etc. and that was £15 a night (for 8 nights) on Soi 94 (the Initial). I think he just found one on the internet that was £28 just to wrap up the video.
He didn't though. He overpaid on a bunch of crap and rubbish food. You could go out in a Northern town in GB, get 3 meals and get smashed for £100 and probably still have change in the morning. Thailand is not really cheap anymore, especially booze unless you get out in the country.
Ed - as a fellow ginger I salute you, I visited Thailand a couple of times and was told often I was very “Hansum Man” 😆 I was able to spend £100 quite easily every evening…but that’s another story ! Have fun !
That's one place I've always wanted to go! I probably won't get a response but, Ed what made you wanna go to Asia & for Xmas? Loving the content as always.
Man you're actually hilarious, excited to see more videos in Asia!! Are you going to Hanoi in Vietnam? Would be interesting seeing you in the cheapest city in the world :)
Something to note; just because something in Thailand is not as cheap as street food does not mean it is exclusively targeting travelers. Thailand has one of the highest wealth disparities in the world, meaning there are hundreds of thousands of millionaires that live alongside both the middle class and working class. So "premium" products are also targeting locals, just the wealthier ones.
This sounds silly but I really like the food courts in the large supermarkets around Bangkok. You can actually get pretty authentic food there and there are loads of different counters with different styles of food. Plus airco of course which can be a godsent. Usually a full meal is no more than 2 quid and youll be sitting amongst the Thais themselves because tourists usually dont go to a "mere" supermarket for dinner. That also means you wont get food thats made for tourists so not overly sweet. And with all the options available its just a joy to check out all the stalls before deciding what to order. A great-in between when you dont want to eat tourist food and pay tourist prices but the streetfood stalls are perhaps a bit too adveturous. And streetfood can be really hit or miss in my opinion. You kind of have to know the good ones because your delicate Western digestive system might disagree with some of them, causing you to become very intimite with your hotel bathroom for a couple of days. It might not be the most scenic but when you had a busy day in the Thai heat just hanging around a food court like that can be very relaxing. They usually have some counters that serve specialty drinks like all sorts of juices and tea's as well, so yeah, try it. Just any large supermarket like Big C or Lotus will have one, and the Central shopping malls that are all over the place are also good for that. Nice and very budget friendy place to hang out for a while. Just a solid price/quality balance so you cant go wrong. I really like the one right in the middle of things in the Central mall near the Siam BTS station. Its on the top floor all the way in the back behind the supermarket. Amazing place for food. Also, just dont go to Khao San Road... It used to be a cool backpacker scene but right now its just terrible... Just overprices touristy stuff. If you want to party try the Sukhumvit area.
Yeeees edwardo you wonderful not ginger beauty! Can't wait for all the content. Enjoy Thailand, its a beautiful place! And don't be afraid to try the local ermm cuisine 😉
Been watching your channel for yonks now, how do you travel by yourself?? I’d end up going insane, I find joy in being with people all the time! Are you gonna meet up with friends?
Ed, great to see you over here, the yellow necklace is for you to put in the temple its not for you to wear mate. Also 28 quid would have got you a decent hotel room. Will you make it down to Phuket this trip?
I know money is all relative to the place and wages and all that rubbish but it feels like it works out still cheaper than the UK if you scale it up wages to value of the money
Ed I love your videos and I know how much you travel so I thought why don’t you come to farmer copleys it has a farm a cafe and it is lovely at Christmas time and they do the best sausage rolls better than greggs I know you live in Leeds so it would only take you about 30 minutes and I would be more than welcome to show you around because I regularly shop there thanks Ed

100k coming before new year can see it now 🎉
Wow lucky you, have a great time!
Happy days enjoy urself and looking forward to your content
Absolute smashing it
Stay safe pal on your travels, me and the missus love the content ❤
Ed actually bought and put on hippy white girl trousers, I'm dying 😂
@@SlothShowerah, yes. Had many one night stands with the people of Pluto. They've got very sticky fingers
🤣🤣🤣🤣 he’s a rib killer 😂😂
They're so comfortable 😂
They are@@LondonLovesOlympics

Would love to see him do a surviving on £1 a day
So much, inspired me to do the same 👏👏
Launching soon!
Alternative title: “how not to spend £100 on bangkok” 😂
he spent 100 on total garbage and ate at the most touristy places but still fun video
You got to have fun tho man money isn’t everything
Ed’s made more appearances in a San Marino shirt than half the national team put together at this point
They won yesterday, and got promoted to Division C in the Nations League so maybe we'll see a surge in San Marino shirts around the globe.
@ especially with Ed as a global ambassador

Love the content, have fun! No bs, great editing and banter, keeps it snappy.
Those sunglasses 😂😂😂 bloody love you Ed
Yessss, I am planning my Thailand trip 😍 this is the pivot I needed
i have been dozens of times, if great
Get a banana lepan from 7-Eleven for me chief
Watch the Callums Corner video on it, he's got like 7 or 8 videos. Similar vibes to Eds
There actually is a café at Buckingham Palace! You can only access it if you've paid to go inside the Palace, but it is there.
Cannot wait for the rest of the videos from this trip
Great vid! I have those exact trousers from my friend when they went to Thailand . What a fascinating place to go to.
Pocari Sweat is banging. Have had it throughout south east Asia. Hits the spot everytime...and yes, from the wide range of drinks available, I picked it for the name!

Street food is the best in thailand the ones that have the wok over a flaming barrel and tiny plastic chairs on the pavement i was eating pad thai for less than £1 when i was there
Pad Thai my favourite food here by far cheap tasty and filling
The spring rolls are great too :)
love the content recently, looks like you are having a blast! Inspire me to travel more!
It always brightens my day when i see that you've uploaded a new video. Have a great time whilst you're there ! ❤
The subscruiber you met is Roobenstein. He does Newcastle United content on TH-cam.
I thought it was him
Recently found this channel and have been binge watching it eveyday, absolute jokes.
You are very very lucky ! Welcome 👍🏼
Me too…it’s awesome
Yes Ed has a certain quirky sense of humour I don’t dislike 😂
Nice one Ed... looking to watching your upcoming videos ❤🎉
Never been to Thailand, really want to go now. Love how friendly they are. Love the culture. Cheers Ed! ❤
They certainly are very friendly people
I was in Thailand a few months ago. Even in touristy areas its easy to eat for 2-300 baht, and you can get pad Thai for under 100. You overspent. Plus a hostel for £28?! That's like hotel room price.
I don't normally comment but I look forward to your videos every time!
Brilliant video. 🙌 Really enjoyed it. What a fab place. Looking forward to the next one!
Cracking video Ed good to meet you. Enjoy your trip 👏
Your videos are fantastic, and effing hilarious! Keep up the good work 🎉

Such a great series idea, can’t wait to see the others!!!!!
Thailand's perfect! Me and my family stayed there for a month and had a tour, best holiday we've ever had.
Excellent content.
You deserve 100x more subs
you want some real good food for veryyyyy cheap !! try a hospital , near the W hotel in bangkok we were amazed by the food for 50 baht per (big) dish
20 odd quid for a hostel! You could have rented the palace for that!
I know. I was in a hotel in Hua Hin, AC, good shower, good bed, safe, English TV etc. and that was £15 a night (for 8 nights) on Soi 94 (the Initial). I think he just found one on the internet that was £28 just to wrap up the video.
“Just finished up in the massage parlour” 😂😂😂
Best one yet. That was just brilliant. Can't stop laughing 😂😂😂😂
Typical Yorkshireman "Its my job to pay less".
He didn't though. He overpaid on a bunch of crap and rubbish food. You could go out in a Northern town in GB, get 3 meals and get smashed for £100 and probably still have change in the morning. Thailand is not really cheap anymore, especially booze unless you get out in the country.
Glad you’re starting to get recognised! You deserve way more subs
This channel gets better with every video loving grind 👊🏼
Absolute legend Ed thank you for the consistent uploads. Been here since 10k subs!
Nobody cares 😢
@ why reply then?
Great vid, love your sense of humour
Thanks! I would wear those elephant trousers ed.

Don’t go chasing waterfalls Ed
Ed says some ridiculously naive stuff, but acting like the banana was forced upon him is unreal 😂 He ordered it!
Ed saw mashtag hit half a million subs in Thailand and he’s gone on to do the same, you deserve it man.
Oh I absolutely love this!!! If you think it’s worth it, record your journeys around Asia too, that would be quality!
"So I've just finished up at the massage parlor and I feel reborn"
Is literally what every man says when he exits a massage parlor.
Loving the videos as always, still my favourite man ❤
You wearing that flower necklace is you telling everyone it's your birthday when its not 😂😂 that's what flower necklace resembles
Another banger nice one Ed mate 🎉🎉

Been on a Ed binge and I don’t regret it

"Temple of the green emerald." Emeralds are green, Ed.

You know its a good one when the San Marino shirt comes out!
Ed "the chap" Chapman living the charmed life!
Crazy that was roobenstein you bumped into a fellow TH-cam who vlogs Newcastle matches. He’s got a vlog out soon from his time over there ⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️
My favourite time of the week.🎉
Been watching your channel for yonks now, how do you travel by yourself?? I’d end up going insane, I find joy in being with people all the time! Are you gonna meet up with friends?
The guy that recognised you is a NUFC youtuber called Roobenstein.
U should of got the Geoffrey darma glasses they suited U haha
@5:17 there’s someone wearing the same trousers behind you 😂😂
That's great that a subscriber recognized you. I keep waiting for that to happen to me.
Have a pint on me ed, love your content
Thank you so much!
Wow you are on your travels 👍
Also tbf the idea of having wires above ground probably means no unnecessary road works
Welcome to Thailand! for 4400 THB budget food i can live up to 2 weeks or a little bit more
Including beers? :)
Great video, Ed. That "nightlife" would've been too much for me as well 😂
Looks like Ed traded budget flights for a first-class ticket to inner peace.
Hope the san marino money rolls in soon, considering you're a global ambassador
LOVED the trousers
Stay safe Ed ✌🏻
Love the video! Really boring question, are you using the external mic with the osmo pocket 3? Or just the built in mics?
built in
The cannons at the Grand Palace are made in England, blew my mind lol 😆
Careful w/ any comment regarding the royal family. There's something called the Lese Majeste law here.
Love the way you're squinting in the sun all day 😂 then buy sunglasses when its dark 😂😂😂
Ed, great to see you over here, the yellow necklace is for you to put in the temple its not for you to wear mate. Also 28 quid would have got you a decent hotel room. Will you make it down to Phuket this trip?
I know money is all relative to the place and wages and all that rubbish but it feels like it works out still cheaper than the UK if you scale it up wages to value of the money
Keep these Asia vids coming !
I was about to go to sleep but then Isaac the notification said you uploaded a new video!! Woohooo
Shirt looks good. 😊
0:55 Now that's how you cook eggs. Perfect.
In 2017 £100 lasted me a good week, wish I could go back to then
19:49 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 bahaaaaa very Jimmy savile, Elton john. Roaring
The best fake footie shirts I got was in Turkey I got 10 of them, the one Arsenal one I got in Thailand fell apart after second use
The lad who recognised you was Roobenstein. He does Newcastle United videos. He is a top lad
Great to see you growing up. Football shirts are the new briefcase 💼
Become a connect 4 master
You already have a "cleansed soul", you're hilarious mate!
Tourist prices through the roof but glad you had fun
Yay Asia series let’s goooo. Btw I have bought those exact elephant pants in Thailand too 😂 standard
Ed I love your videos and I know how much you travel so I thought why don’t you come to farmer copleys it has a farm a cafe and it is lovely at Christmas time and they do the best sausage rolls better than greggs I know you live in Leeds so it would only take you about 30 minutes and I would be more than welcome to show you around because I regularly shop there thanks Ed
Greggs is going to seem so tame when you get home
