Great seeing you guys and hearing about Eric’s experience in Hua hin. He is doing a great job budgeting money each month, and living his best life in an awesome city!

@whatsdeandoinginthailand 16 дней назад

Thanks so much for your comment, yes he is doing a great job, Check out Sunday's video where he tries to go to Vietnam but gets stranded in Bangkok. Thanks again

Seriously considering a retirement scouting trip to Huahin before the end of the year. Great to hear from a fellow Canadian (I'm from Newfoundland Eric) - excellent information, conversation and insights guys! Thanks so much and will be watching your channel closely. One thing I am concerned about is the water shortage in Huahin I have been hearing about. Is this something that anyone considering a move should be concerned about? I was wondering if you could discuss this or comment please. Keep up the great work!

Hi Derrick, glad to hear you considering Hua Hin, the water shortage is not a problem especially now as it has been raining a few times. I think the issue was it clashed with Songkran so made things worse. They would also tanker the water in so I think this has only happened a few times in many years. They will try to improve when things like this happens. Thanks for watching and I will pass on your comments to Eric

Hi Dean, My name is Jeff. Hope you find the shampoo I introduced you works.From watching your video I noticed an improvement. Cheers!

@HuaHinwalkaboutwithDean Месяц назад

Hi Jeff, I don’t think we discussed that in the video. It’s Cha cha - slowly slowly, some little improvement but still an improvement. Drop by for a coffee and chat at the rose Garden 10-12 if you can on Mondays, it would be nice to catch up

Dean can you please point out in your next "Cheap non expensive Thailand" to retirement wannabees "Have A Plan of Action." After seeing what happened to Ed Sweeney wandering around for months with a 20kg suitcase, sometimes in dodgy hotels, continually getting a Tourist visa (although saying he is never going back to UK & is going to retire). Sadly it became too much for him & he fell ill needing Emergency Care after yet another visit to Pattaya living like a tourist.

We are from the UK

That’s okay mate I won’t hold that against you. I am also from the UK southeast London

@stephenharris7982 Месяц назад

Love this guy ❤ living is good life instead of struggling in the west and all that sea air

@whatsdeandoinginthailand Месяц назад

That’s the thing I don’t think people understand, he would really be struggling in the west and here he is not as he has a good life. Thanks for your comment 😀🙏

@brianstreet7377 Месяц назад

Nice one folks 👍

Eric commented about renting being a better option than buying. What are the factors in that decision?

@HuaHinwalkaboutwithDean Месяц назад

Death would probably be the first as he’s no spring chicken, money would be the second and freedom would be the third. If you don’t have a wife then you cannot leave it to her, freedom: you cannot change your area if you buy, things can change very quickly when it comes to buildings, a bar or another condo could be put in a spare parcel of land next to you and this will affect you and you cannot move as the value of the property would probably drop and it would take 1-3 years to sell the property. Always best to rent and chase the next better property and price. Or you can spend 6 months in another country or move if you want with no worry. Thanks for your comment, yes old age is a factor as you will never get your money back vs renting

@jacked6 Месяц назад

18000 Baht a month my goodness that is crazy low. Even Thais I know here wouldn't say this is doable. I hope this budget is sustainable long term. How do you have any money to travel anywhere? One domestic flight I take usually is 1000 to 2000 Baht alone

@whatsdeandoinginthailand Месяц назад

I believe his budget was even lower in chiang mai with Coffee only 40 baht so much cheaper than in Hua Hin. He does not smoke or drink, no massage and no girly bars maybe that’s the reason. He also normally has street food which is extremely cheap. However does come out with us once a week for English Breakfast and Coffees which as he said his budget has gone up compared to before. Well done Eric, I think he’s been doing with a lower budget for about 2 years now, so longer term I don’t think would be a problem. Thanks for your comment

@jacked6 Месяц назад

@@whatsdeandoinginthailand I never smoked before and hardly ever drink too. I stick to the non alcohol beers now and cut off alcohol due to its health impact. The girly bars are definitely not for me perhaps maybe because I am in my early 40s still. I met lots of ladies my age range who love to go out at night for dinner and various beach activities, jetski, dancing etc. We always split bill but you knows costs add up so quickly for entertainment if you go out with anyone. I am not sure if he does any dating but you will find any snorkeling trip or road trip you take with anyone can add up the cost. Any sort of healthy imported foods like organic vegetables are salads are out of the question. I am curious how he handles the dating scene!

@kohtime 7 дней назад

@@jacked6I think Eric’s budget and disposable income are two completely different things to be honest. His budget is exceptionally low but I think he has some leeway. Nice to see how a genuine bare bones budget can work though..

@user-xr9hj1lj8m Месяц назад

can you extend your visa local in Hua Hin

@whatsdeandoinginthailand Месяц назад

Yes you should be able to extend for at least 30 days, the rules have changed as from tomorrow you could probably arrive on a 60 day instead of a 30 day depending on your country. Thanks for the comment

@keithp6254 Месяц назад

A lovely video, thank you. You are both my friends but I need to disagree with you both on some points. As a UK citizen I don't think you can go to Vietnam and obtain a "Visa on Arrival", however you can go for a period of time visa free. I have never heard of an International Driving Licence. Again I may be wrong but when I came to Thailand I had a UK driving licence + and International Driving Permit. The Permit only lasts for 1 year. I did the same as you Dean, a simple eye sight and reaction test to obtain my Thai licences for car and motorbike. I do like information to be correct when concerning government regulation issues but I do sometimes get stuff wrong so please correct me if that is so. The other video content was wonderful.

@whatsdeandoinginthailand Месяц назад

Thanks, my terminology may be incorrect. I went to the post office in the UK and as you say an international driving permit for 1 year. No Visa needed for UK Citizens for 45 Days. Thanks for your comment

@user-ff5jd2mz7e Месяц назад

Gee very low 18,000 bhats. Take my hat off.

@whatsdeandoinginthailand Месяц назад

Yes unbelievable, but he is spending a lot more now due to groups he attends, so it was a lot lower before. Amazing 😀🙏

@whatchannel3679 Месяц назад

Shame about the audio quality, those look like cheap lazada microphones or something can't imagine DJI mic or rhode sounding like that or maybe you have a setting wrong it sounds muffled and distorted

@whatsdeandoinginthailand Месяц назад

Yes, sorry about that it’s not a major brand and will stop using them. I did have a backup Rode microphone as a backup but even that picked up traffic noise. I have invested in a different setup so next time should be better. Thanks
