Songkhla will never be the same. It will crowed with farang tourists because of you Paddy. You introduce and represent Songkhla and make it known to the world very well. Excellent job!
My 3 favourite TH-cam vloggers in Thailand...Retired working for you, Paddy Doyle and CB media. I believe you guys are on the way to making it really big on youtube. Best wishes.
It reminds me of Penang, love those shop houses and colonial buildings and the street Art. I love the high pitched Sawadee krup’s you do. Great stuff Paddy thank you. ❤️
It’s because Songkhla (Singgora) used to be part of the Malay Sultanate, before it was exchanged (as part of a packaged deal) for Kelantan etc. 🙂 If you check out some parts of Phuket town, you’ll be able to see the distinct similarities in architecture with Penang & Malacca as the Straits-born Chinese settled there too.
I am following Paddy for two reasons: 1. Love the adventures 2. Looking to find a "perfect" place to retire in 12-15 years. Chiang Mai was on the top, but with the burning that takes place and air pollution, it is no longer on the top. Once I saw Paddy's Hat Yai tour, Hat Yai is #1 for now. It may change as Paddy's show more places :).
this is "next level" pro standard video making and presentation, like watching a good tv travel show, never knew about this place despite decades travelling in asia, excellent young man
I love your love and enthusiasm towards our country and each lovely little places you've been. So glad for your channel to be growing now, keep on great work! 👍👍
Love your accent!! Most TH-camrs are Americans or Canadians. It is so fresh to listen to someone speaks with a British accent. At this time when most of us can’t travel. It is so amazing that we can watch you on your little Honda. I hope the videos are longer and more detailed.
I am an American on vacation in Thailand, and I visited Songkhla on a whim because of this video. I was on Ko Lipe, not too far away, and was inspired to check it out. I am here right now and I have to say it is a really cool place! I’ve been here two days so far, and have not met another foreigner.
I'm thinking the TAT should consider putting you full time on their payroll and start using you and your videos in promoting Thailand to the world. No kidding!
I love Songkhla! Went there on my biketrip! So good to see it again! The deep south of Thailand is a nice place! Thanx for bringing us there with U man!
Love the intro! Love everything about this new channel! Waking up wondering how your days have gone...and, all the sudden you pop up with another amazing one to share! Keep it up, you are an ace at this!
That town has a George Town Malaysia look/feel to it. With every video you make my wanderlust grows stronger and my depression being stuck not being able to travel grows as more as well. Australia is opening a bubble with New Zealand so maybe......🏍🤞🙏 keep safe Paddy and enjoy a sunset and beer for those of us stuck at home!🍺🌅

This is becoming a favorite vlog. It’s exciting to see all the provinces and I especially like it when you show the street life, houses and cultural places. Since I can’t go to Thailand now I’m traveling through your videos. Now I’m all inspired to go south the next time I visit.
Of all the southern provinces shown in your videos so far, to me Songkhla really does seem next level! Also, what is really cute in this video is your small red pimple, right in the middle of your nosetip 🤤
Right now we'll take a warm beer and ok food as long as we're in Thailand lol the experiences you're having are amazing. We love watching your videos Paddy. They keep us going towards our goal and keep us sane until we can come enjoy it ourselves 😀
I’m addicted to this series Paddy! I’ve never gone any further south in Thailand than Koh Lanta... This town looks amazing & is now definitely on my list! At least the crappy meal didn’t cost you $40 AUD....😂
Hi Paddy, thank you for making me love my hometown even more. I instantly subscribed to your channel after stumbling upon your channel for the first time with the video about Hat Yai.
Hello Paddy, i have seen many of your videos recently, they are super nice. I want to ask you, what program or app do you use for editing your videos, about music, stickers, etc? Thank you and keep going with this beautiful channel!
thank you. to share Thai culture to the world. You acheive so much.. I was born in Hatyai now am staying in Pathumthani if you need anything let me know I'm will be right here.
Paddy you are the best Thai Vlog around..you are funny but cool..!!! I"ve been living in Thailand for 20 years and its good to know that there his people like you around..!!..excellent.!! BBC should sign you up..!!
Hey Paddy, really enjoyed the video, well produced and entertaining. Me and my gf have lived here for 8 months so far, and for what it’s worth I thought I’d post my pros and cons of Hat Yai! Pros - 1. The food. Like you said, there’s great diversity of cuisine and most of it can be found for outrageously cheap prices. What I would say though is you do have to put in the effort to find places, it’s not like some cities where there’s a ‘food street’ where you can just stroll along and browse (although such an experience can be had at Greenway Night Market, not featured in your video but highly recommend you check it out next time) 2. Cheapness! As well the food, the accommodation is extremely reasonable, we have a spacious condo with a balcony and a nice shared pool for just 3,700 THB a month! Taxis and tuk tuks are also cheap especially compared to Phuket. 3. Travel connections: like you said the airport is really handy and the train station also has sleeper trains to bkk and Penang in the other direction. 4. Amenities: it’s got everything you could need and like you said, English language movies, would also point out the 4dx screen there I believe is the only one in the south of Thailand. 5. The beach, which although not great, is still a beach at the end of the day. Cons - 1. Also the beach! You must have been very lucky indeed because I’ve been to it several times at various points of the year and it’s always been very ugly: the water is a horrible grey/brown colour, there’s a lot of trash, and there are huge concrete pipes scattered all along it. This is not an ideal beach for relaxing and for most of the year the waves are so big you wouldn’t wanna risk a swim. I was shocked to see it in your video as I’ve never seen it like that! 2. The weather: unlike most other places in Thailand that have a pretty even split, Hat Yai’s rainy season lasts for 75% of the year and at times the rain is so heavy and persistent you can’t leave the house. During the dry season it’s hot that you don’t feel like spending much time outside during the day. So basically you’ve ever boiling or soaking wet. 3. The traffic lights, which as you rightly said, are a deal breaker! I’m not kidding, we’re actually considering leaving because of it. Maybe it’s bad luck but I always seem to be on the street that has to wait the longest. I’ve seen lights green for 20 seconds and red for 199+. Doable with a bike as you only wait for one cycle but in a car it’s hell. Try that twice a day for a commute and then spending what feels like half your weekend sat in traffic! I’ve since switched to a bike commute but for car drivers it’s enough to make you lose the will to live at times! 4. The driving standards: we are know Thailand has a very bad standard of driving in general, but Hat Yai is the absolute worst I’ve ever seen. It seems everyone who drives here has a death wish, people will willingly put their lives and others lives in danger just to save a few seconds on their journey. 5. The views: apart from the temples and the mosques and a few shopfronts downtown, it’s visually quite a drab place, and combined with the usual grey skies it’s hardly a work of art! I must thank you though, for giving me a slightly different perspective on my current city and maybe inspiring me to make the most of it a bit more, when you’ve lived here for a while it does wear you down a bit! My conclusion, good for a few days or maybe a week, but personally it’s not for me long term, I’m not much of a city person and I’m itching to go back to island life! Keep up the good work Paddy!
Hey Paddy, another great video! I’ve been to Hat Yai and Songkhla but never had the time to explore. It is now the month of Ramadan and most will be fasting in the deep South. Please explore the wonderful food markets that only appear during these times. But stay safe and just be mindful of local customs ya. Cheers from Malaysia.
Nice video, Paddy - I love Songkla. For viewers planning a trip to Songkla, you can also skip the (paid) funicular and walk up to the viewpoint for free - the steps are from the opposite side of the hill from the funicular (I went that way, mostly because I didn't realise there was a funicular, but it was a nice climb with zero other people about).
It’s fish sauce! Not fish oil. Anyway, we love your videos! We miss Thailand! Songkhla looks so much like Malacca and Penang. We can’t cross border yet but your videos bring us so much positivity! Keep on doing what you’re doing!!
Great Chanel you are very interested and professional I myself have just arrived in Bangkok Thailand and your Chanel is keeping me sane in my 10 days quarantine AQS hotel best of luck to you
Brilliant video... Noodle soup ❤️ our favourite could just taste it with your description. Cold beer ☹️☹️, is a no, no. This place looks amazing, from the old town, to the beach. Loving your content and agree with those that have said before me your top of the vloggers list in this house. Look forward to the rest..x
Another really nice location and vlog. Old town looks very similar to Penang and or Malacca in Malaysia. Nor surprising when it this part of Thailand is so close to Malaysia. Sorry about meal fail but life is all about balance - cannot have light without some shadow. Really enjoying this set of videos when lockdown in Scotland is finally easing a bit, I will defiantly be returning to Asia in 2022
14:18 Why it has a bronze statue of mermaid here in this beach ? , Well , the fomer mayor of Songkhla once when he was a child his father told him about urban story that a fishman while walking on the beach at night he saw a young mermaid sitting on the rock and combing her hair with a golden comb. When she realized that the fishman saw her she suddenly plunged to the water and was dissapeared but she forget the comb and left it on the rock , the fisherman kept the comb and waited the mermaid to come back again. Sadly that mermaid didn't come back and the golden comb is still the legend artifact that noone know now where is the comb gone and who keeps it.
@@PaddyDoyle. Actually, there are two mermaid statues being famous in Thailand, the first one is combing mermaid in Songkhla province which you have visited and the last one is on Samet island, located in the east of Thailand, near Rayong province, which is along with the giant bronze statue of a female ogress when you are there you will see them
Wow this destination looked amazing!! As a former coffee shop owner Im curios about the orange coffee combo.. was that a shot of espresso on top? thanks
Well I have noticed this in a few videos. I really hope you tried the food before you added the extra spices ect. As a matter off etiquette you always try it first before you add on, BECAUSE if you add before you try it , you are in a sense saying to the chef “I will season it, cause you didn’t or you don’t know how and I don’t respect your cooking!” (Represents No respect for their abilities) I’m not saying that is what you are doing. I been to some restaurants where they will ask you to leave and never comeback if you add before you try. I understand everybody has their own preferences, but you should always experience the meal the way the chef has prepared it, thenyou can add to suit your own taste. Just an FYI Love the video
Today I saw Suthep mountain very clearly. The haze has started to fade away. A friend sent me a picture. 🤗 At Hat Yai city, there is a cable car up to the mountain to enjoy the view.😉
Is there anyway of includung some kind of map at the beginning of each video showing current location and shaded in the provinces you have been to so far.
Nam-Pla - strict means Water -Fish - also fish water - it is used a lot in Thailand as Thai's rarely use salt, so this is used instead of salt, and a few other sauces too. It is neither oil nor sauce...
That coffee shop took the time to digitally weigh the coffee grinds before brewing. That attention to detail is a sure sign of a great coffee house. I paused the video to write this comment and immediately afterwards you said the same thing. Great minds hahaha

I love this beautiful part of Thailand... less tourists, less scammers, less go-go bars, better food, more nature, real thai life...
I swear your videos are so professional they look like a television show. Love it!
Haha thanks mate
Better than most of TV shows
Songkhla will never be the same. It will crowed with farang tourists because of you Paddy. You introduce and represent Songkhla and make it known to the world very well. Excellent job!
Haha thanks
You are damn right. This town has already in my bucket list.
@@LovePeakpoon i'm thai and my home town is hatyai fyi. I know what you mean,ok?
Your Vlog- Becomes No.1 in my List....I enjoy watching...
The best
My 3 favourite TH-cam vloggers in Thailand...Retired working for you, Paddy Doyle and CB media. I believe you guys are on the way to making it really big on youtube. Best wishes.
Thanks 😊
You should check out Johnny There is Something Happening ;)
Wow thanks, I love those two as well!
@@tyderian25 Been watching Johnny a few years, but enjoy Paddy much more.
Bangkok podcast. They are my favorite Podcast about Thailand.
It reminds me of Penang, love those shop houses and colonial buildings and the street Art. I love the high pitched Sawadee krup’s you do. Great stuff Paddy thank you. ❤️
Was just going to say that! Got the Georgetown feel.

Yes, Penang!!
Every old town will feel like Penang for a Penangite like me 😅
I am following Paddy for two reasons:
1. Love the adventures
2. Looking to find a "perfect" place to retire in 12-15 years.
Chiang Mai was on the top, but with the burning that takes place and air pollution, it is no longer on the top. Once I saw Paddy's Hat Yai tour, Hat Yai is #1 for now. It may change as Paddy's show more places :).
I felt in love with Songkhla! Have been 2 times there years go, its so beautiful. Also Ko Yor is so nice and peacfull!
this is "next level" pro standard video making and presentation, like watching a good tv travel show, never knew about this place despite decades travelling in asia, excellent young man
Thanks 😊
Try "next level" drinking game not for the faint hearted.
I love your love and enthusiasm towards our country and each lovely little places you've been. So glad for your channel to be growing now, keep on great work! 👍👍
Lived there and worked from Songkhla from 1993 - 1995 good to see the old place, enjoy your travels.
Thanks 👍
@@PaddyDoyle. Swadee Pi Mai - Songkran - without the water splashing!
This series gets better and better. So many cool places that I have never heard of, and now want to visit.
Love your accent!! Most TH-camrs are Americans or Canadians. It is so fresh to listen to someone speaks with a British accent. At this time when most of us can’t travel. It is so amazing that we can watch you on your little Honda. I hope the videos are longer and more detailed.

I think they enjoy getting for free 🤣
@@PaddyDoyle. Good point! 😂
I love Songkhla! Went there on my biketrip! So good to see it again! The deep south of Thailand is a nice place! Thanx for bringing us there with U man!
I m Thai living in sydney. I love your show. You make me smile through your shows.
Nice one! Enjoyed your video. Next time I will go to Songkla too! Thank you for posting.
Best videos to watch during a lockdown. Thank you.
I have travelled extensively in Thailand but never been there .
Thanks for being a guide in these lockdown times .
Don't forget to close your choke !
Thank you, paddy. I’m always enjoying your storyline. It’s such an entertaining log.👍
I love visiting old towns. The viewpoint was lovely and I like the mermaid statue.
👍👍
We had a snow storm today where I live. Seeing the beach cheers me up! 🏖 🌞
❤️❤️❤️
Hey, Thanks for check out my hometown! It's such a unique place to live in between sea and lake
It sure is
Fast becoming one of my all time favourite TH-cam chanels. Enjoying every video, keep up the great work Paddy! 🙏❤ 🇨🇷

Thanks 😊
Loving your videos! It would be great to have a map to see where you are & where you've been so far! Keep up the great work :)

Great Video with lots of Info👌. Next November I would also like to visit Songklah
Cup of coffee , sun shining in Brighton watching this
Enjoy ☺️
Dope video, Paddy! Good way to show that every day isn't always sunshine and rainbows when traveling. Annoying things happen. Big and small.
I was once in songlka back in 2002 abs it looks exactly the same as in your video. I was even going to live there at the time.
Songkhla * 😅
This seemed like such a great day, until the very end.
Still seems like a cool area!!
You're the best!
Hey mate ..what a chic town ...love it ! Great track you picked for the ☕️ coffee scene ..keep going loving the content .
Look like some amazing back drops in that town for some portrait photography, looks beautiful

Yes!!! A great way to start a brand new week! Thank you 🙏🏻
Love to hear that
We are here at the moment and totally love this city. Nicest town in Thailand imho. Food paradise, everything cheap as chips.

Real sick dude !

Hi Paddy I'm thai. I've been to songkhla once but long time ago. So now there look very quiet still cool.
Loves these town tour videos but don't forget to take us with you on the adventure between the towns!
next video don't worry :)

Another awesome vlog, Paddy! But, how'd ya fix the Honda Dream?! Greatly appreciate a lil update, mate.
Great vid Paddy. Keep them coming.
More to come!
It’s fish sauce! Not fish oil. Anyway, we love your videos! We miss Thailand! Songkhla looks so much like Malacca and Penang. We can’t cross border yet but your videos bring us so much positivity! Keep on doing what you’re doing!!
Great video. Songkhla looks like a very interesting place. Not sure about the orange juice and coffee it sounds awful but I will have to try some😀
Try it 😂
Your vids are awesome mate. Sweet music choice as well 🙏🏻👍🏻 God bless
Thanks 👍
Paddy! Just loving this! Great idea to go to these off-the-path places. I may just buy Dreamy off you and do a tour myself ;)
Great video Paddy I lived on/off Thailand for 12 years but didn’t have any interest in the Deep South but on the bucket list now
Great to hear that ☺️
Nice video. Love it, especially the sunset on the beach.
You are living life well, sir!

I been to some restaurants where they will ask you to leave and never comeback if you add before you try.
I understand everybody has their own preferences, but you should always experience the meal the way the chef has prepared it, thenyou can add to suit your own taste. Just an FYI
Love the video
I went there about 3 months ago.It was so fun.
Great video as usual ✌️
Thanks 😊
Today I saw Suthep mountain very clearly. The haze has started to fade away. A friend sent me a picture. 🤗
At Hat Yai city, there is a cable car up to the mountain to enjoy the view.😉
Oh wow!
Is there anyway of includung some kind of map at the beginning of each video showing current location and shaded in the provinces you have been to so far.
Very insightful in Hat Yai, yet animate and hilarious ..Sub you mate
Dude, that is fish sauce. Dont get double confuse. 🤣🤣🤣
😊💋
Nam-Pla - strict means Water -Fish - also fish water - it is used a lot in Thailand as Thai's rarely use salt, so this is used instead of salt, and a few other sauces too. It is neither oil nor sauce...
Nam-pla-prik
That coffee shop took the time to digitally weigh the coffee grinds before brewing. That attention to detail is a sure sign of a great coffee house. I paused the video to write this comment and immediately afterwards you said the same thing. Great minds hahaha
It reminds me quite a lot of George Town, Pengang! Super cute, loving the series so far keep it up :)
