- Here's a few links for my favorite credit cards. I try to check the links often, but let me know if there is a problem. If they change the offer on the card, I may need to update the link. Full disclosure, I get a few airline miles for referring a new customer. You should get the same public offer at no additional cost. Thank you very much.

If you enjoy checking out Bangkok and other SE Asia spots, consider subscribing. I'll continue to make videos showing the streets in Bangkok and beyond. Thailand is amazing and a great place to visit, work or retire. I'll do my best to show you how to live affordably in SE Asia. Plus, enjoy some great side trips from Bangkok.
Your videos are so helpful to anyone planning on visiting Bangkok.
That's always nice to hear. I met a few new people at Stella's birthday party. They told me they found that fun bar or a nice street to live on watching my small channel. That's cool to hear. I watched a lot of TH-cam before i moved over. Getting an idea of an area was helpful to me.
Thanks for another fun video Joe. Keep up the great work.
Soi 11 is a great street. Thanks for following along.
Just wanted you to know that the videos don’t offend me in the least way. Non-drinker, could care less about the bars and bar life but I enjoy your walking videos, yes all of them. It is probably nice for you to have a hangout and friend like Stella and her bar. Keep the videos coming , I watch them on my exercise bike. Forget the haters.
Thanks for the nice comment. No I could care less about a few negative comments. I just find it funny how closed minded some people are. Overall, I'm grateful to get 99% positive comments. Even if I got 50/50 negative comments, that's fine too. I'm gonna do my thing. If folks like it or hate it. I can only do the best I can. More walking videos to come. Enjoy that exercise bike. Hopefully, you come for a visit soon. Come enjoy some food with us.
Thanks much for your excellent presentation. I’ll be staying on Sukhumvit 11 in March, and this gave me a clear sense.
Have a great trip
Oh wow. I walked to every path u had. Starting from the klong to Sukhumvit. I stayed in Ramada! Very informative video for those staying in Sukhumvit 11. 😊
Soi 11 is a great street. There is plenty of action.
A few of the girls I'm friends with on Instagram post a few pics from Havana I get the impression it's a bit of a trendy joint mate
@@Stephenuk-zc3xo Havana has always been a trendy smaller spot.
Hey Joe brilliant video mate, I love soi 11 but I wish you would have given the Bangkok burger a shout just before the seven 11 on the left best burger in the big mango I urge you to give it a try, keep up the good work buddy buddy buddy 👍 😀
Oh ya, I did miss that. I've pointed it out when I started a Soi 11 tour from the BTS Nana station. This time I was at hour three and ready for some AC. That is a good burger, but my go-to is Prime Burger between Soi 25 and 27. Great smash burger
16:19 Had dinner at Tony's last year. Good Italian food. Talked with Tony a bit as he was making the rounds greeting each table. Said he is from New Jersey.
I've had drinks at Tony's but never dinner. Looks like a fun place. I'm always up for some Italian.
Nice vlog❤
I appreciate that. Thanks for watching.
Just touched down today from Vegas. Staying on soi 33. Hope to run into you while I'm here.
For sure man. What's your name? If you didn't know Sat is a Buddha day. Get a few beers from 7/11. I need to cool out a little tonight 3am at Stella's Wed and 4am last night. But stop by tonight if your out and about. There's always a fun group of people. Stella should get there around 8:30 or 9:00. Tell her you saw her bar on the channel. She loves that.
I might meet another subscriber at O'Shea's on Soi 33/1 on Monday, maybe 7pm. Come join us. My Line is joefromcalifornia. Catch ya later
Another excellent video, Joe. I just landed in BKK last night at 11pm. Will be in BKK until Tuesday morning when I fly out to Da Nang for 6 days and then Cambodia for 5 days and then back to BKK and Grande Centre Pointe T21 after that for 3 days then it's back to Silicon Valley Bay Area. Let me know if you'd like to grab some beers and lunch on me!
I will be getting my 2 hour massages and then walking Asoke down to Em Quartier then down to Soi 55 in Thong Lo then backtrack to EmSpere to check that out for the 1st time. Thanks for all your helpful hard work and videos, man. You have offered some precious knowledge (which is power when traveling) which has saved me a lot of time doing my own lengthy personal research. Thumbs Up!
Hey brother, welcome back to town. I'll probably have dinner at Oshea's tonight on Soi 33/1. I'm waiting on a lady. She's 50/50 if she can go out tonight. Sat and Sun I have plans. Monday I'm free. Do you have line? Shoot me a message at joefromcalifornia. Or leave a comment here otherwise. You don't have to buy me anything. Always good to meet a person that got any small use out of my little channel.
So I'll catch you later, or maybe Monday. You should have came straight from the airport to Stella's party last night. We left at 4am. Ha ha. Hurting today. Remember that Saturday is a Buddha Day. Many bars won't open. Other will have a strange open at midnight, close at midnight. Not sure which maybe Soi 11 and Soi 13. Normal bars like Stella will just stay closed all night Sat. Plus you can't buy booze at 7/11 on a Buddha Day. Already they have the no sales from 2pm to 5pm. Then again it stops at the end of the night. Ok, catch you later.
@@EagerExpat I arrived from a 20 hour flight at 1145pm due to delays. Had to shower and get some sleep. Monday is fine. I fly to Da Nang for a 6 day motorbike private tour.
Then Phnom Penh and Siem Reap for 5 days then back to Bangkok for 5 days.
@@donnguyen8443 That's cool man. Sound like a fun trip. Remind me on Line or leave a comment Monday around noon to confirm. But pencil in Oshea's Irish Pub on Sukhumvit Soi 33/1. Very close to the Phrom Phong BTS. Well get a few happy hour pints. It goes all night on Monday. Maybe 7pm? Catch ya then. Oh ya, what's your name? I'm Joe
@@EagerExpat Adding you now.I rented a motorbike here in BKK. I have an IDP permit and have ridden my Harley and R6s in NorCali and SoCal (cousins and friends down there) for over 24 years.
@@donnguyen8443 Roger that
Great coverage! One of these days I’d like to make my way out there. Not a big party guy, though. Rather be in a small pub. Heard the people are nice.
Come on over. Bangkok is great. You can party as little or as much as you'd like.
Bang Bang Burger I will try. Rock Me Burger in Chiang Mai is excellent.
Bang bang is good, but Prime Burger is great. A few locations around town. Also on in Pattaya
@@EagerExpat I’ll have to try Prime Burger next time I’m in Thailand
Good distance estimate, it is exactly 1km to Nana BTS from the water taxi, according to Google maps.
That's good to hear. It was just a guess. It's a pretty easy walk.
I was near the Grace Hotel in 2004 and thought I saw Yassar Arafat
Ha ha, they all kind of look like Yassar Arafat down Soi 5. Or my hospital Bumrungrad. I think anyone with money travel from the Middle East for the best medical care.
👍🙏
Thanks for watching
What do the slashes mean in the addresses?
I'm not sure what slashes you mean. Even if I saw one, I'm not sure what that means.
@@EagerExpat like an address of 242/82. The slash between numbers
@@mmaranta785 That's just the address. My building number is 48. My apt is 244. So it's 48/244. It's just the address
@@EagerExpat That makes sense
Vegas strip 🤦 Americans man please tell me the similarities here😂
It's an expression we use in the US. Vegas is the ultimate party. Music, neon lights, everyone is partying until 3am. So you might say this street in Miami is like the Vegas strip. Just like I said, Soi 11 is a party street. Minus the casino, it's full of action. It used to be Khao San Rd, but today, that's more for 20 year olds. Soi 11 is like Vegas today.
Bottle service is always a ripoff
I'm not a nightclub guy, but just like Vegas, many of these clubs won't give you a table unless you buy a bottle. And unlike Vegas, a bottle might be $80 or $100 US. So with 6 people, that's cool. I'm still a beer guy, but if you want to play in the fancy nightclub in BKK, it's bottle service or find a place to stand. Again, that's not my scene. But, I've heard over and over from buddies, you need to buy a bottle to reserve a booth at most of these places. If the drinks are $10 each (or more) a $100 bottle isn't too bad. In Vegas that same bottle of Goose is often $350. Now that's a rip off. But, you want to sit with the NFL players, etc.. you gotta pay to play.
You pay more for convenience and worth every penny. Those hotels take good care of you too
A good hotel is nice. I'm usually in a moderate place if I roll solo. But with a girlfriend or wife, it's nice to have a fancy hotel once in awhile.
