I found my new favorite city in Thailand. This is why I LOVE Hat Yai.
Full of Chinese food, Malaysian food, muslim food, and incredible Thai street food. Temples, churches, mosques, and beautiful places of worship. Mountains and beaches, nature all around, and all the western comforts I like are all here too. It's cheap, it's clean, it's AMAZING. I love this city.

Letting Go from Illusions by Richard Bach.
Once there lived a village of creatures along the bottom of a great crystal river. The current of the river swept silently over them all -- young and old, rich and poor, good and evil -- the current going its own way, knowing only its own crystal self.
Each creature in its own manner clung tightly to the twigs and rocks of the river bottom, for clinging was their way of life, and resisting the current was what each had learned from birth.
But one creature said at last, "I am tired of clinging. Though I cannot see it with my eyes, I trust that the current knows where it is going. I shall let go, and let it take me where it will. Clinging, I shall die of boredom."
The other creatures laughed and said, "Fool! Let go, and that current you worship will throw you tumbled and smashed against the rocks, and you will die quicker than boredom!"
But the one heeded them not, and taking a breath did let go, and at once was tumbled and smashed by the current across the rocks.
Yet in time, as the creature refused to cling again, the current lifted him free from the bottom, and he was bruised and hurt no more.
And the creatures downstream, to whom he was a stranger, cried, "See a miracle! A creature like ourselves, yet he flies! See the messiah, come to save us all!"
And the one carried in the current said, "I am no more messiah than you. The river delights to lift us free, if only we dare let go. Our true work is this voyage, this adventure."
Love to you Paddy, excellent!!!
@@ta11p00 Interesting story. Very in line with Abraham Hicks.
My house is in Hat Yai.
I have been to Hat Yai many times and it’s okay.I go there with my family to see my dead relatives there. I go there by train because I just want to enjoy it
Show more Thailand, less your face !
Thank you so much for making this video clip. Hatyai is my hometown. I left Hatyai to attend a four-year college in Chonburi in 1996. I’ve lived in the USA for 21 years now. It’s almost 16 years since I haven’t gone back to visit Haityai. I’m so proud of my hometown, Haiyai. I had a peaceful, happy childhood life and many good memories there. I agree with you for all of those reasons you explained why you love Hatyai so much. I’m so excited to go back to see my hometown soon. Thanks again for the good post! 😇🙏❤
Imagine driving around HatYai and seeing a crazy white guy waving a half eaten corn on the cob yelling at the traffic lights. Hahaha! Favorite scene from this whole series, Paddy! Good stuff.
Comment of the Day!!!💕
Your comment is next level
100% my thoughts too! Next level funny
Haha, great comment. Paddy's anger was palpable and the corn eating with it was hilarious
I subscribed after seeing that.
I've been living in Hat Yai for 4 years now and the part you talked about how you hate the traffic lights here just got me laugh like hell yeahhh me tooo. The day I can drive pass through without stuck at any red light make me feel like Yes this is my day today lol
Agreed !. Before the pandemic Mar.2020 , i would skip Friday and Sat in the city. We used to visit during weekdays and drove all the way home to Malaysia on weekend.
@@goodyboy73 wow thats cool. And yea before pandemic there were a lot of Malaysian tourists. I'm glad you like it here. However, even there is no tourists during this time, the traffic on Fri and Sat is still bad here haha
I've never seen someone eat corn so aggressively! Those red light times would make me shirty too haha
Let's all celebrate that moment when a few speckles of that buttered corn clung to the corner of Paddy's mouth desperately waiting for the light to change! Love you little Brother.
HAHAHA 😃😂
i cried laughing while your venting out of the traffic lights and munching that sweet corn at the same time lol 😂
Yes! And the way he kept pointing with it was so funny 😂
You are a Falange ambassador of travel promotion and goodwill for Thailand! You are selling it buddy!! Great video. Cheers from Alaska!!
Compared with the 105 minutes of my life watching Godzilla vs Kong, I'd take those traffic lights any day of the week. Cool vlog mate, I like your style.
105 minutes x 2
Better than a movie, mate
Agreed, wot a waste of 105 minutes. Total dud film!
In general, Hat Yai is just a temporary stop for tourists who want to head to Phuket or Krabi, lots of Malaysians landed here for getting on a bus to Phuket or neighboring province that why Hat Yai has a lots of souvenir shops
My father born there 😂 My grandparents migrate from China and Hatyai is full of Thai-Chinese so lots of diverse culture here in Hatyai !
Wow Hat Yai was not the way I imagined it. I’m glad you showed us some of it. It’s much better than I thought. I’m going to fly down there someday and check it out. Keep smiling Paddy!
Hi Paddy, glad you liked Hatyai. I have lived here 9 years and agree that it is the perfect city to live in!
This is one of the best Thai vlogs I've ever seen! Love it minute by minute.. Keep it up Paddy!
Thank you so much, that you like Hatyai City. Our City have many kind people. You can ask them what you want to know, but they really shy to speak English. Hope to see you ~~~ *I'm your fan from Hatyai!❤️
people in hatyai could speak well in english or melayu ?
The reason that set of light didn’t show the wait time, is because the traffic police can manually control them according to how busy that intersection is. This usually happens during peak time. Enjoy Hat Yai Paddy!!
Been living here in Hat Yai for 3 years now, that's true. 🚦🚦🚦🚥 a lot.
Paddy. you are so lucky men. that you can visiting all this provinces.
thank you for inviting us, to enjoy your journey with you. 🙏🙏🇹🇭🇹🇭 thank you from Switzerland.
Loved this episode mate!
I can remember on my cycle trip going from Satun ferry terminal to Hat Yai in the one day. A couple punctured tubes, busy highways, and a storm kept me from reaching Hat Yai until about 7pm after a 10-hour day in the saddle. I fell in love with the place too though, ended up spending a few days walking around the temples and eating at the 33 Buffet... ahhh the things you remember about travel - stuffing yourself with ice cream after a hit day.
Take care mate!
I was born and leave in Hat Yai for all my life but I never see my city as you see. I never even visit the mosque and Chinese temple. Thank you so much for showing me how amazing city I leaving

Leave Leaving ~ ออกจาก ละทิ้ง
Chaing Mai has winter but no beach, while Hatyai has almost everything excepting the cold season.
I'm just considering.
If it has cold season the beaches won't be so beautiful.
The pollution in Chaing Mai is the deal breaker these days. The south has so much to offer. Beach AND mountains. What could be better?
But everything that Hatyai have is nothing compared to Chiang Mai.
Wow. That is indeed a beautiful place! Another reason to love Thailand
Hat Yai is not walkable at all, unless you live right in the small downtown area. It's also insanely humid and it rains a lot - my body is not acclimated to it in the least bit, and I have lived here for two years already! I sweat continuously all day to the point where it's really difficult to concentrate on anything.... The mountains in the North (Chiang Rai area) are way nicer.
Absolutely loving the content!! Keep up the good work Paddy. Let’s get the channel to 100k and beyond!
Hatyai City., It very nice.
looks like your series will become the go to guide for anything Thailand... great work... keep it going!!
another bucketlist ✅❤️
I love Hat Yai 😻
Amazing fried chicken with sticky rice.
I once bought an epic Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles t-shirt at a flea market.
People very friendly 🙂 I didn't see very many Western travellers.
Yes! I’ve been telling people Hat Yai is the place to be since I first visited a few years ago. Something about it feels so ancient but at the same time exciting. I’ve been there twice and completely agree with your assessment.
Cheers Paddy,
Frank in Bangkok
Loving the journey so far Paddy! You always bring a lot of energy 😊 keep it coming my man!
Thanks dude 😊
I'm a forgein and i love Hatyai as well. My fav city. i've lived there for a year and i loved everything about it. i miss that city
First time I've seen your videos, you are a natural presenter, bravo
Great video. This is what we signed up for😍 Hat Yai looks great, well worth a visit.
You are making a lot of people around the world very envious of your adventures. An awesome look at at another amazing city in this beautiful country ( shame about the traffic lights, I agree a definite deal breaker ) We cannot wait to get back to Thailand hopefully Phi Phi next February if normal service has been resumed. Till then we are enjoying every moment of your adventure and feel very lucky to get a glimpse of this this amazing land through your eyes. Look forward to seeing you meet up with subscribers and others on your journey too. Your smile at the end suggests the BBQ was next level as well.
Simply like your style of descriptions and brought me to the attention of so many facts in Hat Yai even though I am so familiar with this City for more than 20 over years! Great man! Thanks!
Songkhla-Hatyai is the best city, mix everything , it cool !!!
After living in Khon Kaen for the last seven years Hat Yai may be my next home.
Welcome
This series is amazing.
Awesome vlog!!! Glad to see your bike is up and running!!!
How did you fix the bike?!? Love the channel.
I would like to know this as well
So it started working again without anything beeing done?
Hi, I’m Hatyai girl 👧🏻
Thank you for visiting my hometown.
I have been hooked since the 1st train vlog and just want to say Paddy that your content is really engaging and REAL. Love your vlogs mate - 15k Subs and way beyond soon mate!
I appreciate that
One of my favourite vlogs of yours!!!! :D Loving watching your trip thus far!
Omg Paddy I took a few weeks off TH-cam to revise for some exams and your channels blown up! I was last here watching you with only 2,000 others and you were talking about how you were going to try and grow the channel. Well done!! You did it!! Can’t wait to see you grow even further :))
Luv the place. On thing I luv a lot is the one way streets - makes life much easier for pedestrians!
One of your best videos.
Never thought you love my home town so much like this 😆
I'm also frustrating the traffic light in hatyai every time I come back to visit my dad and mom. Even bangkok don't has that many traffic light in every corner of the road.
Probably a relative of some official owns a traffic light company.
You always have some surprises for the viewers in every videos. Great content man !!!
Were having a great time watching your videos while having dinner! Looking forward for other videos Paddy 😁
This video is your best yet. Beautiful video !
Nice one Paddy! Yeah HatYai is quite a place, totally unique, and definitely one of the COOLEST cities in all of Thailand! Nice video man, SO MUCH FOOD on the streets of HatYai, could spend months there for sure :). Cheers man! Have a great day today!
Thank you so much Paddy for your info, honesty and laughs. You're so funny(laughing with you). I will most likely stay in Hat Yai for a few month per your vlog.
Wow, this is amazing. Love it dude!
Thanks a lot 😊😊😊
I love Hat Yay, the fried chicken with yellow rice in the morning, shopping mall in the afternoon and warm porridge diner.
The yellow rice with chicken is called ข้าวหมกไก่ and the best place to get it is at a restaurant called เดชา. There are several branches in Hat Yai.
Great find! Great to see a genuine and consider approach to travel vlogging. A rare thing
Hi Paddy- Greetings from San Francisco and Thanks for sharing this vlog! Fun watching you and would love to see more of your adventures in Thailand 🇹🇭
My most favourite place to stay!thx dude!stay safe
Addicted to your videos. Entertaining as always. Cheers from Singapore. 🇸🇬👍
Great video! Looking forward to see what you have next. I am a huge fan of Thailand and has been visiting yearly till this covid thing.
Hatyai has not had many Western tourists till the last few years. Visitors are mainly Malaysians and Singaporeans who comes here for a weekend getaway, visiting temples, shopping and for the food. As it is more convenient to fly to Phuket or Krabi, few tourists use it as a stop over nowadays, except for Thais that are on a driving holiday.
Try roaming the nearby towns like Sadao, Patani or Trang, they are interesting places.
i hope your Honda is ok and still live 🤣. yes this is Thailand. people think Thailand is only bangkok, phuket, pattaya and chiang mai. but we have a lot of more beautiful places. take your time and enjoy the #amazingthailand 🙏🙏🇹🇭🇹🇭👍👍 thank you
Hi Paddy. I came across your vlog for some Hatyai guide a year ago. True to what you said, I keep on coming back to this city. The culture here is similar to PH and since its just a few hours by train from Penang, going to Hatyai is the best thing I can get close to home.
oh wow, great! Been looking for an alternative to Chiang Mai. Thanks for that Paddy!
Never seen you/your channel before but from this video im sold. You're brilliant!
Nice 👍 video totally next level. I think I am going to start saying ‘next level’ to my family and friends 🤣
Another gem Paddy your Awesome mate
Both Trang and Songkhla look amazing. You are seriously inspiring me to imitate you with the trip, with one minor difference: I think rather than riding the bike from province to province, I'll load it in the back of my Hilux and use that for the distance driving. Brilliant trip so far!
Hat Yai cropped up yesterday in our search for somewhere to retire next year. Thanks for this video Paddy.
The 'deal breaker' is a funny thing, loving the sweetcorn.
In Hat Yai now. Checking the sights!! Thanks Paddy 🤗🤗
Omg! My favorite video of yours! The corn guy running around with a crazy hairdo was hilarious lol 😂
paddy...i havnt laughed so much for a long time. Great video, loved the content and really enjoyed the journey!!!
Haha, I can't stop laughing at how you murdered that corn 😆
I like your content. Keep it up your channel is growing massively !
Thanks so much for this VDO.
I’m just back from London and will live in Hatyai. Love your British accent so much!
Hope to see you around in Hatyai.
Enjoy!!
A very entertaining and informative video .
I love your enthusiasm !
very well made video. Keep it up man
Hey Paddy....just subscribed to your channel. Just love your videos and the very down to earth way you present them. As a "newbie" Aussie expat now living in Thailand (currently in Phuket) I look forward to visiting some of the provinces you have covered in your videos. I have not visited any of the deep South places as I have always been under the impression it wasn't safe to do so but your videos have dispelled that myth for me. Thank you
Welcome aboard!
Cheers Paddy!
My gf and I have lived in Hat Yai for about 8 months. We hate the traffic lights here so much :(
This video is next level 😉 I’ve been binging on these vids. I miss Thailand so much
Welcome back!
Great video Paddy! Great hook + pay off
Hatyai: biggest city in lower southern Thailand, friendly people, great shopping places, delicious food and fruits. I'm glad that you like it. 😊👍
Thanks 😊
This is great. Hat Yai City is very nice. Thailand indeed has some very beautiful cities. Thank you for sharing. :)
Thanks for visiting Hatyai.
Hatyai is a good little city. U got everything you want here!
Awesome , this video has already revealed the mystery I kept wondering , why this city is very popular for Malaysian .
Paddy. love your travels and the glimpses of Thailand.... they are fantastic in my opinion especially now as i am stuck at home during this pandemic. Am extending invitation to come down to Penang, KL & the rest of Malaysia for yr break once we open up.
Nice Video,Thanks for sharing,😊🙏wish you have a great time overthere ka.🌈☀️⛱
Love your energy mate. You've got a new subscriber (from Korea, the southern part!)
Hat Yai looks fantastic, certainly going to visit 😎
Next level!
Thank you so much , Paddy for these great adventures in Thailand. (I'm Thai)
I've been in Thailand about 10 years. The best somtam I've ever had was at a beachside restaurant about a 2 to 3 minute walk west from the mermaid statue at Samila Beach. I love the province of Songkhla, but didn't care much for the city of Hat Yai. Anyways, it's great following your adventures, Paddy. Cheers!
That corn and traffic lights bit cracked me up
Samila beach is beautiful and there are a few more places to travel such as some small village with homestay (Koh Yor) small village on the lake enjoy your stay in Songkhla.
Mr. Paddy, make that 101 subscribers, stud. I like your style. You're casual, and you explain what "we" are going to do next. That brings people in. "Then I'll take you to dinner," etc. We realize we won't be "eating, " per se, but the gesture sounds friendly, warm, and inviting. Keep it up. You're on to something good here, stud. --Jack, Pasadena, CA
Great video. Always interesting content. I can imagine that is annoying, just driving around the corner having to wait so long. You waving, your corn. Lol. Your food looked tasty. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks ☺️
This was your best video yet, really getting into your solo groove, loving it! Paddy with corn running down his face, "Whyfor no light number?" 🤣🤣🤣 AFter watching this we have decided we MUST to get to Hat Yai again...the last time we were there Kate spent the whole time in bed at the hotel recovering from Dengue so the next trip has GOT to be an improvement for her 🤣🤣🤙😎🙏
Btw that temple (วัดฉื่อฉาง) just recently opened after decades of restoration since the 1980s flood. I haven’t been back to Hat Yai in years so that was a cool sight to see! Keep up the good work and stay safe!
I am one of your subscribers and I personally love this video of yours. First reason is that I normally reach Thailand from the Philippines via Hat Yai international airport and second, I love the complete elements of a city you mentioned that were present in Hat Yai. By the way, aside from the religious temples and mosques there is a Catholic Church, too. Have you visited the zoo? It would be another part of your adventure for sure. Best regards, can’t wait to check if you visited Phatthalung and Nakhon Si Thammarat, too. ;-)
Well done! Great vlog as usual and that CORN!
Just found your channel! You are the born youtuber, such a good presenter and such a good personality! Cheers :)
Thanks 😊
