New sub here Richy, loving your work, ive been to and traveled thailand for 11 years and only been "out of country" twice for border bounces, mayanmar and laos, skirted the cambodian border at aranyaprathet , mad busy baled second hand clothes markets, is what i recall there, but thailands spoilt me really as i found mayanmar (mae sot) and laos (vientiane) a bit dirty/dusty and way behind thailand, i never ventured inland so i'm going by your traveling expieriences of places outside of thailand, your doing a great job of venturing out and about, ive lived in kamphaengpet for a few months out of my 22/23,. 7 month trip, but unlike you "solo" traveller i'm saddled with a thai g/f, and a car, no probs in thailand but usually a no go at borders,.still i managed 222 days last trip, not bad for someone who turned 69 in may,!. i'm looking at a retirement o visa on my return, so 15 months could be on the cards, ive traveled thailand extensively so it may be time to see whats on the other side of the fence,.anyway safe travels and keep the content comming ,.
Brilliant mate, 69 life must be treating you well. I want to be in your place at your age, well done. I’ve got load’s coming up, after Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos back to Thailand for Xmas because I love it. Then Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Sri Lanka, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh I’m hitting all of Asia basically but that’s my order hopefully. Mayanmar at some point too
I was a late starter going to thailand, @55 y/o but made up for it by going 09//10/11/13/14/15/16/17/18/19/22/23,.. covid ribbed me if 3 years worth of Thai travel,. I went back nov 22 with a 60 day tr visa and extended that by 30 days and was just going to stay 3 months, but I decided to hang it out as long as I could, 222 days I was maxed out and flew home to uk on 4th July 23,. I was planning on coming back 25 Th Oct 23, but I couldn’t sort my uk shit out in time so I’m just going to have to be patient, I would like to get back for Christmas if possible, done Christmas in pattaya for a few years now,.how are you budgeting your trip ? You said your 49 so what about uk work/home commitments ?,. I retired late at 68.5 y/o on November 18th 22, and was on plane to to TH on the 24th nov 22,. Your travel itinerary is a marathon, but I’ve no doubt you will accomplish it,.my 7 months cost me a fair bit because I bought a car for 300000 bht and the Thai g/fs got a nice house in Khlong khlung near Kamphaengphet where we live,. Been with her since 2009 so got my roots in TH, I like your video style, I was watching “ vlogging a dead horse” but I’ve gone right off him lately, him being defamatory to viet locals didn’t do him any favours,. Plus he’s a “weed head”, I like how you do your research to, I plan a trip normally by having a few way points/dates pre booked hotels etc, I did most of the southern islands last trip and it was a logistics challenge booking ferries etc but it all worked out good,. I couldn’t do what I do without the car, I’ve always hired one before over the years, usually £12 p/day, but it adds up if you hire for a month,. My trips used to be 2 weeks then later it became 1 month trips, until the 222 day mega trip,. Anyway looking forward to your next video, been binge watching some your early ones(,. good effort for content ) cheers,. 1:24
@@cabovermike I use an app to keep detailed review of everything I spend. I left the uk with 20k and hopefully TH-cam will start paying off by then mate. As you can see I really keep my budget to a minimum so I’ve got at least two years to make this work.
I used to watch Shaun until he got really disrespectful to the people of the countries that serve his purpose. You can see when people let there guard down sometimes and he really showed his true colours.
I think he was in the Philippines and he told a 6/7 year old child street seller to f&ck off he really showed his true self. Even before then he was unbelievably disrespectful to the Thai people.
You couldn’t meet two different people, I have a totally different perspective on life, I want to blend in and learn the culture of everywhere I go. He wants to take advantage talking bollocks all for the sake of views.
I want to build a community not go talking to street girls and ladyboys. That’s not me, what you see is me doing what I do and no bulls#it. I will never disrespect myself for views👍🏻
Another great video Richy,you really do go the extra mile in your details of places you are visiting and you keep it interesting right till the end..Cheers Pal...
Thanks Shaun I really appreciate it mate
Nice one ritch
Thanks Mike, really enjoying Cambodia so far mate.
Really nice place there ! -- Love the vibe of the city and cheap living. -- A good place to retire and maybe do some travel from there ? -- Retirement visa in Cambodia over 55 is cheap easy and pretty amazing ! -- Other countries are expensive and complicated by comparison.
It was lovely Frank, I have some friends who live in Cambodia. They said the visa’s are really cheap too.
Richy you’re the biggest source of inspiration I always like your vlogs. Your vlogs put a smile on my face. I’m currently planning to get a new motorcycle one I can run cross country in and hopefully travel daily soon, Great vlog Richy 😊👍🏻👌🏻
That’s really nice to hear, you just put a smile on my face😊👍🏻thank you👌🏻
Nice one Ritchie. You are busting some serious moves and moving very fast! The first hotel looked pretty good, owned by a UK couple you said? How much was a single room there?
Thanks mate, for a double room it was £11 a night. Very cheap, I would of stayed there longer but no rooms available
I was told non Cambodia nationals could not own ground floor property?
@@rogermanifold8615 I’ve got no idea about that to be honest Roger. I see a lot of foreigners with businesses here so I assumed there was no restrictions.
Very enjoyable and very, very helpful .Hope you enjoy your time in Siem Reap, Richy . Have you considered visiting any of the lesser known places like Battambang or Kratie ? I think they would be right up your street . Good health .
Thanks mate, i'm hoping to pass through Kratie on route to Vietnam.
Subscribe to your channel. A couple of weeks back really enjoy watching. Great information you give Thanks Richy
Thank you David, that’s really good to hear mate.
👍 Thanks Richy
Thank you mate👍🏻
I love your videos, Richy. Taking me to see places I've never thought of going, but now very interested.
You must do a video about the scams in Cambodia you mentioned about the Tuk-Tuk drivers.
The Antonio hotel looks great for a budget stay!
Thank you mate, that’s hopefully what I’m trying to bring to people.
I thought about doing that Greg but they hunt in packs with there being so many of them. I don’t want to rattle there cages, their response could be a nasty one.
@@ParkinsonRaw I could understand that, they sound ruthless by 10 times more than in Bangkok! Safe travels, mate.
Every where has scams. Just be on the ball. Smile and don't get done
@@grahammurray7426 that’s the one Graham, everybody’s gotta earn the money you just gotta be on the ball. If I get a tuk tuk I look on grab to get an idea of the price.
Was a cow track,,,20 yeaes ago,,nothing there
Same with a lot of places mate, at least it’s not like Sihanoukville. It looks like Baghdad in places there, shocking to see
Question: Would you buy sausage rolls if a cart sold em? Good ones not fake. I'm moving back from USA. I hope to meet you.
Definitely mate if they were good and not super processed. I’d love to meet up.
The accommodation is really good value especially the first one, the people seem friendly you mix really well and your so polite loving the football shirt 😊
Thank you June, as in Thailand the people are really nice it makes mixing in so much easier. Antonio’s was a lovely hotel, I would of stayed longer but there was no availability.
My new accommodation is in a Cambodian neighbourhood away from all the tourists on the outskirts of the city. This is more me it’s so relaxing and the Villa is amazing. I’ll add this to the vlog when I head off to Phnom Penh travel day😊
@@ParkinsonRaw I can see you like to mix with the locals it’s lovely to see a lot of people wouldn’t make the effort, I wonder why tourists can’t hire a bike? Gives you more freedom to explore 🙂
@@user-nu6hi4hw7p I try as much as possible June. They seem a lot more receptive to the camera than Thailand. I think it’s something to do with the tuk tuks, they rule the streets apparently. You can rent them for 4x the price as in Thailand and your risking getting pulled😊
@@ParkinsonRaw that explains it and not worth the risk or the price public transport then not a bad thing 🙂
@@user-nu6hi4hw7p No your right it’s not worth it. The tuks are cheap enough. The place where I’m staying now the lady let’s me borrow her bike. I look a right numpty but I don’t care🤣
I rented bikes there,,fir years
Not sure if we’re talking about the same one mate
Arr those doughnuts and you had a female groupie donning a red backpack💥
Haha freshly baked mate🤣👍🏻
There are motorbike rental shops advertising rental for tourists online in Siem Reap?
There’s loads on the street too Roger, it was mentioned a lot on my research. It’s probably why they charge so much, $16 a day I seen in many places. I was paying $5 in Thailand. I hardly ever see police so I can’t see it being a problem.
say it like this Richy. C M Reep. Maybe catch you in Thailand in December. il be the one following you 🤣🤣
Honestly Steve I mean to do that but as soon as I turn the camera on my mind turns to mush haha. I think beforehand then it goes pear shaped mate. I’m a builder pretending to be a TH-camr, my hope is that I can inspire everyone that if I can do it everyone can👍🏻😎🇹🇭🏴
I’ll be coming into Chiang Rai about a week before Xmas and working my way down to Kanchanaburi. If your anywhere within that direction I’ll definitely come see you mate. Keep in touch👍🏻
Watching the channel and commenting your my bread and butter. Without a doubt if In that direction I’d love to come and meet you and say thanks with a beer of course🍺
Jhum riab sua😊
Jhum riab sua Graham👍🏻
Ozzie bar closed now
Not sure Ross, the one on Sok San Rd was open when I was there
How do you say " Dentist" in Cambodian?
🤣🤣🤣👍🏻
hi richy just subscribed you, looking for 1 bedroom apartment for 1 /2 months,any area you could recommend 1mile from pub sreet? thank you.
Hi thank you, sorry I was only in Siem Reap for a couple of days so I never had a chance to look. The first hotel I stayed in was approximately 1 mile away from pub st. It was a really nice area I highly recommend looking for somewhere round there.
I belive a 1 year retirement visa in Cambodia is £300
Wow that’s extremely cheap, Thailand should take heed and follow suit. Probably because they get so much more tourism they don’t need to.
Avoid " pub street " song seb over the side much better
I’ve been kicking about Sok San Rd, 50c drinks and cheap Khmer food
Thanks Graham for the heads up👍🏻
@@ParkinsonRawthere's a place called kymer pub st . Great craic and cheap ask a motto guy
@@grahammurray7426 I’ll see if I can make it back down. I’m staying a place on the outskirts now, leaving for Phnom Penh early morning tomorrow.
50 cents in siem reap
It’s amazing isn’t it🍺
@ParkinsonRaw surprised it still is, Been that price for years. Siem reap is good . I like battambang and love kampot
Phnom penh used to brilliant around the lake are sadly they filled it in to build hotels etc , not any more sadly same with sihanoulville. Kep is good and the islands
Escaping the west has always being my dream for a few years now Graham. Covid really bought it home to me that it’s now or never. I couldn’t live under that regime it’s a police state and the people need to stand up but there not🐑🐑🐑 it was a case of now or never.
I’ve taken the jump, my purpose on TH-cam is to show and inspire people if I can do it, anyone can and the budget involved if you have the balls. All these comments from people like you are absolutely gold dust to make that happen👍🏻
Sorry that was a bit of an essay mate
@grahammurray7426 I stayed on Otress beach in 2016 and I was paradise mate, I dread going back now to see it ruined.
Watch your weight Ritch.
I will do David, thank you mate. I have put on a few lbs lately
