- What Can $100 Get in Thailand? 🇹🇭 Chiang Mai
While exploring Chiang Mai, Thailand, I try to spend $100 USD in a day. The cost of living in Chiang Mai, Thailand is quite cheap for the quality you receive. We actually spent most of the time in the tourist areas of Chiang Mai, Thailand, so it was more expensive than areas outside these zones. In general, Chiang Mai is very affordable. We visited Nimman area and the Sunday Night Market in Old Town on Ratchadamnoen Road. My hotel was the Wing Boutique Hotel, which is roughly a ten minute drive from Nimman. Thank you for watching!

Thank you for watching! Enjoy Thailand!!
I'm loving your Thailand Series Jonathan. Keep it coming! Pinoy fan here :)
awesome! Thank you for watching the Thailand series!
Thank you for making this video so we can budget for future travel in Thailand.
I'm glad it was helpful!
Yeaah new video! Love chiang mai😍
Yeah! It’s a great city! Thanks for watching!!
Nice video Jonathan - you got me wanting to go to Southeast Asia so bad. The people, the food, the scenery - thanks for the tour of Chiang Mai!!
It’s my favorite region of the world without a doubt! Warm, laid back, friendly, affordable… I love it. Thanks for watching!
Great Video! I want to go there so bad!
Thanks! You should!
Awesome, Glad you're having a good time in Thailand. Hope to visit there soon.
Hopefully you can!
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL After experiencing more of the Philippines, I visit Thailand when my 3 yrs are up. Got 2 1/2 years to go.
Nice video a variety's delecious foods 😍😋
Thank you! A lot of delicious food!
Very informative... and so much good food, it looks like. How do you pick what non-touristy town you visit next? Curious if you have a method of sorts or do you just wing it?
I actually covered the tourist areas in this Thailand series because I know more viewers will be going to those places. But personally I prefer getting away from it. I’m always asking other travelers and other TH-cam channels where to go to get off the beaten path. I have a few friends who have TH-cam channels, and they typically know better than other tourists since they explore the country for months making videos. Or just watching other TH-cam channels’ videos to get ideas!
Hi, happy Easter jonathan
Happy Easter to you too!
Amazing! I’ve always wanted to go there. Great food - fresh and delicious. Papaya salad is the best, and the lady mixed all the ingredients so quickly. OMG! I would surely gain a lot of weight if I live there. 😂
Thank you for sharing. 🥰
😂 yeah! I’m excited to eat every meal there! My friend in that beginning lunch scene said he’s gained 10 pounds there hahah
I'm going to chiang mai this summer, thanks for the vlog! Going to smoke some joints and relax
Rimping market next to Iron Bridge has an awesome selection, Pantip Plaza has a nice selection of electronics and the top floor has a cafeteria with delicious noodles for 40 baht, Wat Santitham is a very beautiful Buddhist temple 😊
Happy Easter Kalbo! Hahaha welcome back to PH. Hope you are having a great easter.
🤣 I usually go by Opaw… the Bisaya word for Kalbo hahaha.. thank you! I hope you’re having a good Easter also!
@@travelescapesOFFICIALhahaha! Opaw! Love it! Hahahahaha
Nice videos but I'll be happy to see you get back to the Philippines. Miss Ana's laughter and smiles.
What’s up bro⁉️
Anyways, I made my trip to the Philippines back in January and had a blast but all of the Expats I talked to says you need to try Thailand
This is awesome. You really helped me out a lot. Planning my trip to the Philippines, and now helping me plan my trip to Thailand.
Thanks a Ton Bro ‼️👍🏼🇺🇸
I'm glad to hear you had a good trip to the Philippines! Yeah! Thailand is definitely worth visiting! Expats like Thailand because you have many of the comforts and amenities like good wifi, quiet hotel rooms with blackout curtains (sometimes), amazing $10 massages on every corner, and cheap delicious food everywhere! It's comfortable and easy to travel around.
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL thanks a lot bro. Your a huge help to a lot of us new expats 👍🏼‼️‼️‼️✌🏼
Me and my dad are planning to go to Thailand and the Philippines, we love your videos they are the best, and we have watched them all.
Oh that’s awesome!! Thank you for telling me that! I hope you have a great trip!
Thanks for answering back and like I said, you're the best would love to meet you when we get over there.
Safe travels
Wow, Its really Affordable❤️
Hello ,Happy Easter Sunday
Happy Easter!!
Have a nice trip ❤
Thank you! 😃
Have a nice trip 😋😍
i will! Thank you for watching!
100 USD is pretty good amount! Happy Easter my friend 🐰
it is... happy Easter to you also!
สวัสดีค่ะยินดีต้อนรับสู่ประเทศไทย
Jonathon, you found some amazing foods! It's not easy spending $100? $68 for you? I like it! I've never considered Thailand as a place for me. You might have changed my mind!
My guess with where the young lady is from: South America; Costa Rica? or Columbia because she seems short/petite ... I have friends who are under 5 feet from Columbia......
thank you for another great video!
Hi jonathan ❤
Hi LilyBeth!!
Nice👍🏽 Here in Maryland, you go to Target with $100 bucks you only get a bag of goodies. Ayo ayoo Jonathan🤘🏻 I would say she is from Spain.
🤣 it s true! And the marketing/advertising there gets you to buy extra things you don’t need. I go into Target to buy one thing and walk out spending $50 on things I didn’t know I “needed”
Fun in Chiang Mai night maket 😊👍🎉🎊
it is!!
At 29.20 is Thai dessert, It’s streamed dumpling with pork, it’s called Kao Greab Paak Mor.
Ooohh thank you for the info!
Have You ever been to the Siam Tulip, in Chang Mai?
I noticed that no one talks about Chang Rai. My friend, Chipchew is the owner of a bed and breakfast there.
No haven’t. What’s that?
Bro, I was right around the corner from there @ the Syn Botique hotel!
Really?! Recently?
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL last Thursday, and Friday. Yup!
Now you stoch in chaing main enjoy life and take care godbless
17:23 it’s actually fine to say sawatdee as a goodbye as well.
oh really?
I love how the video starts already having a hard time spending $100 - some tiny advise...don't ask a woman if she gained any weight dude! I love you bro, ...always watching.
hey Jon you should compare Bohol to Chiang Mai expenses wise...
I’d say Panglao, Bohol is probably more expensive than Chaing Mai. Of course catenderias have similar prices.. but I got meals in restaurants for around $2 - $3 in restaurants in Chiang Mai. It’s not a huge price difference though
Hey buddy, wish I could tag along with you wherever you go.
6:50 I'm not sure that the used-fork-servings are Seinfeld-approved? 🤔🤣😇
19:12 Does that taste like a donut? Looks delish.
21:18 Ladies love gentlemen. Well done. 👍
30:56 The Wing has very nice rooms, especially for $33
Spending 100 here in the USA is so simple 😂
😂 the challenge would be the opposite there. Trying not to spend $100 in a day
Goto the grocery store by five items and you’re pretty much at $100😂😂😂
Was good brother were you been
I like your presentation, good video.
That food is delicious
it is!
Thai food looks delicious, and it seems a lot cheaper (and cleaner and fresher ✌️😁) than Filipino street food, isn't it, Jon?
it is delicious and cheap! Yes, Filipino street food is often deep fried and/or breaded. Not known for being too healthy
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL Right, mostly deep fried. We should have that papaya salad to make it healthy. 😁
Hi Jonathan, being from the United States it is really amazing how reasonably priced the food is there in Thailand. In the Night markets they seem to take advantage of every inch of space to sell food or other items. That Blueberry pancake looked really delicious and could almost taste it through the video.
That room was really amazing for only $33.00 US dollars a night. Everything there seems really clean and organized for a reasonable price.
yeah! Chiang Mai is a very popular city for foreigners to move to because of all of those reasons! I know a lot of people who have lived there at some point, even if it's just for a few months to eat well and work online. Great food and wifi! A lot of foreigners go there or Bangkok for medical tourism as well, although there might be a language barrier. and Somehow I got some promotion for that room and locked it in at $33. When I saw the price went up I was able to extend for a week with my $33/night price that I locked in! Imagine what $33 a night would get in the US!
I’m going to go with she’s from Iran. Definitely Middle Eastern. Happy Easter btw Jonathan 😊
My bad. Spain lol?
I’ll give you a hint… she’s from South America. Happy Easter!
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL Ok one more guess. She’d be lucky to be from Argentina because Javier Malay kicks ass. But I’m going to go with Brazil because it’s the largest country there and she kinda looks like Anne from that TH-cam channel.
Yep, I said Persia
or maybe Peru.
They actually speak Portuguese in Brazil! She's from Colombia. I used to live in Medellin, Colombia which is where I met them
That river is actually a moat that was on the outside of the city wall.
yeah, while I was editing I realized that I accidentally called it a river in the video
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL The only reason I know what it is, I read the plaque near there where there is a remnant of the old wall. I was there about eleven years ago.
Jonathan, sorry to say this, but WE MISSED ANNE. Make a content with her at SAGBAYAN PEAK. I missed that place.
Me also I miss them 3
I'm sorry you don't like my content without her in it. You don't have to watch if you don't enjoy it, I understand,.
Eat well and ingat…
I will! Same to you ingat!!
Far out man 😎
😎
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!
Hi gwapo 😊😊 from ph.
hi hiii! Thanks for watching!
"A hair dryer for people with hair, a water heater for people with water" ah yes, very insightful 🤣
😂 don't forget the chair for sitting. You wouldn't have known what to do with that chair if I hadn't informed you 😂
amazing place and its enjoyable if you travel with your gf😂@@travelescapesOFFICIAL
Do I need a bike or driving license to get a bike out there or will a provisional work?
I'm not saying that you should do it, but plenty of shops will give you a bike without the license and warn you that if you get stopped you'll have to pay a fine. It's common for police to ask you to pay somewhere around $20-$30 USD if they stop you without a license. I'm not recommending that you do it, but it's common.
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL that’s good to know thanks mate I’ve driven bikes for years on provisional in Greece and Thailand and Vietnam but that was like 7 years ago so just double checking cheers
Nice to see everything.. The videos have way too much movement. I suggest not moving the cameras so much.
It looks a lot like ceviche.
Still living the Thai way, Jonathan. I support all your adventures but honestly, I'd rather see you roaming around the Northern part of the Philippines. hehe
Hahaha… don’t worry. I’ve already got a few Luzon videos filmed
Ella es de México o Colombia o Guatemala
She is saying like a Peruvian food, because hablo Espanol is all over Central and South America.
yeah, Peruvian food is known as some of the best food on the continent
❤🎉❤
Thanks for watching!
are there as many expats in Chiang Mai as there are in Bangkok?
I was there during burning season, which in January until April I believe, so many foreigners avoid the north during these months, so it's hard to gauge how many expats there are there. I didn't see the massive crowds, though. Expats love living in Chiang Mai, though! So they're definitely there. But it's a different crowd it seems. It seems many expats living in Chiang Mai are more focused on working online and health. Much more relaxed energy than Bangkok. (burning season is when they farmers burn the crops for crop rotation. The air quality is very bad during these months.. smokey sky)
Classic Thai-massage , 50% pleasure, 50% pain 😂
I would guess 🇦🇷
Good guess! But a bit north or Argentina. Same continent though! ☕️ Colombia!
I would say she is from Spain
EDIT: After hearing her Spanish, I would say either Mexico or Colombia
It’s one of those 3 😂 ☕️
I dont hear even a hint of a lisp, im curious as to why you said spain? this is fun for me as I'm learing spanish, ill tell you my guess by the end of the video 🩷💐🌻
yeah, the accent from Spain has a lisp. She's from Colombia! I lived there for 3 years in Medellin which is where I met them
ประเทศไทยมีวัดธนะธรรมทั้วไปทั้งประเทศมีเสน่และอัดทยาสันที่ดีมาไปทางใหนต่อใหนก็มีแต่ความปอดภัยและเละนำให้ความช้วยเหลือมาหรืไปตลอดมีที่พักตั้งแต่ในตัวเมืองชั้นดีจนไปถึงตามชนบดป่าเขาลำเนาไพรและปอดภัยจนสุขใจในการเดินทางสำหรับนักท่องเที้ยวที่แสวงหาความสุขใดเทักๆสถ่นที่เลย
Your friend sounds like she is from Spain or somewhere in South America.
Colombia!
I could never walk past sai ua, northern Thai sausage.
😂 they looked good!
Hey man
hey man!
Very inexpensive. Good verity of things. 😊
yeah! It's a great place for a trip!

เรื่องอาหารนั้นจะชอบหรือไม่นั้นแล้วแต่พึงพอใจของคนๆนั้น
So where is she from. Peru?
☕️ Colombia! 🇨🇴
You have more viewers if your in the Philippines....
yeah I've been making videos in the Philippines for the last year and half, so most of my subscribers are Filipino or foreigners planning to go to the Philippines, and most of them are only interested in Philippines videos. But I knew that before I made this series! I still wanted to show a new country on the channel!
Maybe wonderful go to thailand i am in filipino and i'm american herewith my little sweetheart.... I smoke weed... but it's against law in the philippine islands.... but i don't have any because it's not legal here in the Philippines....
Is weed legal for medical purposes in Philippines? I am American and I have a medical marijuana license/card
@@wendytoal692 i don't know before i come here i found out it is not legal medical or recreational.... But it said that you need a permit from a doctor to to have it near position n i s a filipino who drives one and taxi tricycles he said it's totally against the law.... They make the people in this country feel that it's a sin when it's not.... Spirits like alcohol can be drink in any country and people abuse that.... In the bible genesis it speaks of it it's an herb and when it was created by god he seen it buried fruit and sea and ables please
@@wendytoal692 messages go to a doctor and find out or find out through somebody who is known the laws in this country i just as the citizen
@@wendytoal692 and whatever you find out please let me know because i would love to heaven but i don't have a medical card back home it's legal and almost every state and why it's not i still smoke it anyway.... I'm not a kid i'm in my 67 smoking center 15

Mexico?
without your english subtitle, we can entendio poquito.
nice!!
So you still lve n asia
definitely! This is my favorite region in the world
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL OK cool stay safe brother
No one like lines 😂😂😅
🤣 I’m saying I won’t get the food I want if there is a line.. I might just eat at the spot with the shortest line 😂
@travelescapesOFFICIAL some lines are worth it, but some are just a waste of time 😂😅😂
@@Maikeruzl7 😂 true... depends on how long the wait is
@@travelescapesOFFICIALTrue!
So did you tell us where the girl is from? Did I miss it?
You’re supposed to guess 😂 Colombia
Well, I guessed Spain. So I was close anyway.@@travelescapesOFFICIAL
Hi i love your channel im very jelouse i wish i could travel like u but i wud be to scared to travel alone especially with type 1 diabetes. Im a new subscriber of yours now and will watch every video. And she is a very sexy Columbian lady i wud say. Keep up the great channel my friend.
We really enjoy your channel brother. But you didn't mention how cheap it is to have your laundry done in Thailand. And the terrible air quality in Chiang MI this time of year. As of March 2024, Chiang MI has the 2nd worst air quality on the planet due to forest fires and farmers burning the fields. We enjoy Chiang MI, but there is more to the story. Safe travels, nomad.
We’ll never be able to mention everything in a video. There’s a million different expenses and topics to cover, but laundry is a good one to mention. This wasn’t a video about the air quality in Chiang Mai, though. I expect this video to be watched in other months of the year as well when the air quality is fine in chiang mai. but I actually do talk about the air quality in my next video at the elephant resort since the smoke was much worse in that video. Thanks for watching!
She sounds like she's speaking spanish a little bit
Yep! Her native language is Spanish
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL where i'm from in america i hear that language a lot
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL she was in your early video from Colombia.. 😛
It's better to ride an elephant than a horse they don't feel any strain
I wasn’t telling people to ride anything
I would argue, that north-east thailand (isaan) is much poorer compare to chiang mai.
I’ve met many Thais from Isaan. They seem to leave that area to find work in other regions
Man i need to be der
you should be!
im going to guess shes from venezuela. the reason why is because ive listened to people from Columbia and they tend to cut off their words pa=para etc. 2 sentences was not enough for me to know though. i wish i could hear her speak longer. also, ive never even heard the venzuelan accent, im just ruling out countries. but my guess is between columbia and venezuela 🩷💐🌻
Colombia!! Great guess! To me, Venezuela and Colombia accents sound similar
hey Mike!! Thanks for watching!
Hey man
Hey man!
