Glad I found your channel. I live in Buriram near the foodmarket you were since 2011 and it changed so much since then. Keep up the good stuff. Keep up the good stuff.
Thanks mate, it was very quiet, last time I was anywhere like this in Thailand was in Chumphon. I think they’re still struggling after Covid etc and also many people leaving to work elsewhere in Thailand.
Just when you thought you couldn't find cheaper than Kanchanaburi, you actually can't! 🤔 Glad you survived the insect feast at the night market! Those lakes are lovely and nice to see some that are unpolluted, and actively cleaned. I was surprised about the supermarket prices, and thought they would be about half of what they were. That roundabout honouring the founder of Buriram was something special!
Great vlog as normal. but i think Khon kaen Udon thani and Nong Khai are better examples of isaan cities . Burriam looks good thanks for visiting and showing us. I am looking forward to your next vlog
@@ParkinsonRaw If you've been to actual Khmer ruins probably not. However, if you are already over that way for a sporting event it's worth a stop. The grounds are nice and if there's an event there will be food stalls set up.
Hey Rich another great video. I am sitting here in Canada just surviving waiting for my pension so I can get out and find a place where my dollars are worth something. But everywhere is going up. Cambodia is still looking good tho
love your comment about the rising costs by younger sales people, I do my best to walk away from there higher prices, unless they are super brilliant and friendly that they can and do develope a repeat customer relationship,
Kudos to you - The Alcohol bill COULD push up daily costs to £15 a day LOL - Hence perfect for TTs... Why did TH-cam show me a SENSODYNE TOOTH advert ???
@@ParkinsonRaw sorry, didn’t remember seeing it.. I’m jealous right now of where you’re at.. where I live in Indiana, my son just got a two hour delay for school because of the weather we’re having. Snow and ice
Still tuning into your videos Richy...keep up the good work. Buriram is one of my favourite places in Thailand, the people there are so friendly. With regards to your teeth, hopefully one day your channel blows up and you can get some dental implants over there in Thailand (they are way cheaper than at home) and you can have the last laugh ; ) Take care pal.
glad you enjoy your life style . but to be honest you tubers they dont need to watch life like that reminds them on of day life not holiday info. glad you enjoy what you do cheers
It was a struggle Liam, I’ve been coming to Thailand for nearly 20 years and the market there was terrible. Thanks I didn’t know deep fried was introduced from China
@@ParkinsonRaw I’ll take your word for it! Yea before the Chinese arrived, all the thais had were boiling, roasting and steaming. The mass arrival of the Chinese transformed thai cuisine
Wow them turning up was a kick in the teeth with their deep frying. I’m always straight down the line mate, I love the markets and I wouldn’t knock it if it was half decent. I was really surprised I thought Buriram would of had really good Thai markets.
great video you could be like the bald & bankrupt of asia getting off the tourist trap and making friends with locals on the way, i notice your videos you don’t talk to many locals or ask them any questions on camera etc maybe it’s something that could be added to some videos
good point mate, the younger people are going to price them self out, its happened here where ime from in uk (birmingham, rubery) the house prices are so expensive i will never be able to afford a property in the town i grew up, with a thick brum accent like myself its not that easy just to upsticks and move.
Hi Simon, it can be a slippery slope mate. There are so many other options out here, opening a bar might seem like a good idea but it’s extremely hard work coping.
@@ParkinsonRaw Back in 1991 I nearly got the lease on a bar in Pattaya with my redundancy payment from British Coal but I could see what was happening to other lads I knew that lived there.
Me and a mate had the chance to buy the irish rovers (irovers)now in soi lk metro in pattaya £40000 in 2010,..i wonder how that would have turned out,?.
2000 bht + for football stadium hotel, i'll believe it when i see it if you stay there,!. i can recommend the on site mcdonalds there on your behalf richy, chicken nuggets and fries with tomato ketchup,mmmmh.
Buriram City is very poor incomparson to say Korat, it was a poor choice for comparison. for the best markets you would need to go to Chong Chom in surin. you have a lot to learn about isaan richy, it is very cheep but communication is vital as the locals won't have the foggiest idea if spoken to in english. i hope you travel more in isaan but try to learn a little thai as a few phrases will help you a lot. good luck with your vlogs.
Richy i can see a lot of Asian countries being heavily influenced by the "Wicked West", its always about being rich and having BS materialistic things, been there done that, but i want to go back to having very few things a Minimalist life, the more "stuff" you accumulate the harder it is to get rid of later. Young people (fair majority) don't understand that, its want want and some more. Glad you found some nice food at the end.
Been here I stayed a few days the market is good and I found a room 1000 per month if I wanted it I would of stayed longer i found it half the price of Pattaya
Hi richy there actually quite a few farangs in p.p. everything so much cheaper there some great seafront restaurants if you going there and want some you need take a thai takeaway company because no girlie bars there😊
Rice isn’t cheap in Thailand anymore the 1st grade Jasmine rice many people live in Thailand on a budget of 30 000 Thai baht it’s possible when your older abd don’t drink in the bars
I wish u would stop banging on about the price of everything. Scrooge McDuck eat ya heart out. How about a visit to the dentist with all that money u are saving?
Glad I found your channel. I live in Buriram near the foodmarket you were since 2011 and it changed so much since then.

Keep up the good stuff.
Thank you mate, I’ll definitely be in Buriram before long I really enjoyed it there.
It looks extremely quiet there mate in the day time and one thing I like hardly any sheeple tourists walking about great video lad

Thanks Greg, I was shocked at the prices i thought it would be cheaper in Buriram and the Statue was great. Not so much the insects lol
love the vlogs, keep up the good work.
Thank you Dave.
Great video, i could never live on £5 a day like you do, kudos to you sir.
Thank you mate, it’s good to shop about. I really enjoy looking for the cheaper places.
Well done, great budget vid again, please try not to talk while eating
@@davidndeborah1 ha I will do David, I’m from the north we’re talkers. Thanks mate
Great vlog as normal. but i think Khon kaen Udon thani and Nong Khai are better examples of isaan cities . Burriam looks good thanks for visiting and showing us. I am looking forward to your next vlog
Thanks Wayne, in time I will be visiting many more places in Isaan.
Nice videos mate - I just have to watch it every day 🙂
Thank you mate😎
Richy there is a castle near the stadium it’s just further past where that McDonald’s is
It's actually not historic, it's a replica.
I thought there was one somewhere, thanks Nick
@@tjmctube is it worth visiting next time mate?

@@tjmctube I’ll check it out next time I go, I want to go to watch a match and stay at the hotel.

Thanks Dan, the cheapest place I’ve been so far is Vietnam mate.
Thank you for the Video I smashed the like 👍😁
Thank you for watching mate💯😎

Thanks Kelly, that’s right mate if they give a much better product and service then fair enough.
Im going to buriram at the end of april i cant wait to go there
It is a beautiful City mate.
You made me feel so hungry this morning I went to the kitchen and knocked up a stir fry for myself😂😂
Ha that’s good to hear, thank you👍🏻
Loving the temples at the beginning beutiful buildings. The curry looked lush yet again a great vlog 😊
Thank you June, I had a great day out. Beautiful City Buriram😊
Mad how quiet some of these paces you’re visiting are
It is Craig, unbelievably beautiful too. I’ve just arrived in Georgetown Malaysia, it’s class here too.
Kudos to you - The Alcohol bill COULD push up daily costs to £15 a day LOL - Hence perfect for TTs... Why did TH-cam show me a SENSODYNE TOOTH advert ???
Haha TH-cam having a laugh at my expense.
This seems like a nice channel, liked n subscribed, if bitcoin continues to go up I might see you out there in a month or so
Thank you mate, fingers crossed on the bitcoin.
And don’t forget to mention about the cup of coffee somewhere in your videos even if it’s something that pops up on the screen to let viewers know
Thanks mate,I always give a shout out for the brews.
@@ParkinsonRaw sorry, didn’t remember seeing it.. I’m jealous right now of where you’re at.. where I live in Indiana, my son just got a two hour delay for school because of the weather we’re having. Snow and ice

Thanks Allan, I do enjoy very much mate.
In Hua Hin I paid almost 8000 bt for electric and water last month. We just have a small pool villa around 1200 sq ft. Not everything is cheap here.
Wow that is extremely expensive mate
The food was Thai food… just not thai food you were familiar with. And deep drying things was introduced by the Chinese, not the west
It was a struggle Liam, I’ve been coming to Thailand for nearly 20 years and the market there was terrible. Thanks I didn’t know deep fried was introduced from China

Thanks mate, I do in some where there is no communication problem. I will try more though
Got heat stroke in kanchanaburi..those poor prisoners having to work and die under the sun broke my heart.
It is a shocking thought mate.

Hi Richy,you are right about opening a bar and then becoming an alcoholic.I’ve seen it with numerous lads over the years.

Me and a mate had the chance to buy the irish rovers (irovers)now in soi lk metro in pattaya £40000 in 2010,..i wonder how that would have turned out,?.
@@cabovermike it would definitely be a crazy experience mate. Pattaya is insane.
2000 bht + for football stadium hotel, i'll believe it when i see it if you stay there,!. i can recommend the on site mcdonalds there on your behalf richy, chicken nuggets and fries with tomato ketchup,mmmmh.
Last i seen was £25 pound a night. Probably will bounce on a match day.

Too right Steve, thanks mate.
Been here I stayed a few days the market is good and I found a room 1000 per month if I wanted it I would of stayed longer i found it half the price of Pattaya
Wow that’s cheap mate, Pattaya is expensive especially in high season.
1000 thb a month? Thst must have looked awfull.
Hi richy there actually quite a few farangs in p.p. everything so much cheaper there some great seafront restaurants if you going there and want some you need take a thai takeaway company because no girlie bars there😊
Thanks Anthony, I don’t go to bars to be honest mate but I do love my seafood.
I kept thinking it was a mini golf place when I saw a load o dinosaur statues while I was over there 😂
🤣they were nice to see and crazy golf would of being an extra bonus I love it💯🤣

Your right Robert, I could live here easily on 30k a month mate
Shame that a lot of Buriram looked like a car park, seafood curry was spot on though❤
It’s a beautiful City in places Gareth but extremely quiet. The curry was awesome mate👍🏻
When in doubt ..rice and mango.
I love it mate, too much🤣
Anyone saying Thailand is expensive haven't stumbled across you!
I do like to find value mate.
The best team are CMFC
Chiang Mai fan Mark, one day hopefully mate.
I can live on 300 thai baht per day good and won’t want for anything
200
That’s a good budget mate.
@@Stevonthemove I could do that no probs mate
This guy is bussy!
I do like to stay on the move mate.
It seems this bloke wants vendors to give their goods away.
Haha this bloke?, are you talking to yourself or me?
The channel is about travelling on a budget.
I wish u would stop banging on about the price of everything. Scrooge McDuck eat ya heart out.
