its pretty concerning about the plastic but hey are getting better now, worst time was before 2017 ill think when i did get more plasticbags and things than food manytimes. First time i was in Thailand in 1994 as a green 18yr backpacker most food was served in bananaleefs, paperplates , waxed paper and paperbags, Thailand was really a poor 3 world country's backthen and very different. After working +15 years in Bangkok, 200-300 baht is what i eat for a normal day incl 3-4 meals fruit smoothies fresh fruit water coffee etc living like a local is really cheap =)
Hey Natt! Thanks for sharing! Where are you from? You're right! Living like a local is extremely cheap. I'm in Phuket now, which is more expensive, but you still find affordable food.
@@GringoNation Im Swedish..having a western salary in Thailand is good i dont spend much of it a month .. And i like the low key quiet comfortable life among locals taking mrt or bts train to work and rent condos in more normal thai middleclass areas and eat good cheap food.
OMG ! Plastic bags ! Air Conditioning! Paved Asphalt Roads! Pre-Cut Fruit! Escalators and Elevators! Signs in English! What the hell is this world coming to? Thailand needs to do something!
