I got the Itch again. Time to leave Thailand. Where to next? Maybe somewhere cooler with no humidity? I arrived! It's like Bangkok with perfect outdoor walking weather! How can this be? Where am I?

My name is Brian but everyone calls me Greeny. I retired in January of 2020 after working 30 years in Law Enforcement. I wanted to retire young enough to be able to do some of the things I always dreamed about! I knew I wanted to travel extensively and retire somewhere warm and exotic I sampled a ton of places in the Caribbean, Panama, Colombia, Turkey but set my sights on Thailand.

LOL after 16 years in Thailand I reluctantly moved back to the UK and landed on the Clyde Coast of Scotland. I rent a flat next to a corner shop which was empty when I moved in. The shop was being fitted out for a long time - about six months. I wondered what would eventually open there. Turned out to be....a Thai massage parlour.

It was so clear here in Jomtien Beach yesterday you could actually see across the Gulf of Thailand and view some of the mountains in the Pretchaburi and Prachuap regions. I know that might be hard to believe, but my condo room is about 500 foot up and the conditions were perfect! I did take pictures to prove it because I wouldn’t even believe it if someone was to tell me without proof!

Could I ask you a question? If I am coming to Thailand for the first time do you think City Garden Tower is a good location? Or would it be too crazy and hard to sleep at night? It's just south of S Pattaya Rd on 3rd Rd.
@markbm1
@markbm1 3 месяца назад
I stayed at a place called the Arbour Hotel on 3rd road about a half mile north of City Garden and the noise wasn’t to bad, but there seems to be a lot of traffic in that area. For a few weeks it should be fine, but I would recommend exploring options in Jomtien Beach, Bang Saray, and Pratumnak before committing to anything long term.

I never understood the atraction of Hong Kong 🇭🇰??? One trip was enough to turn me off. Thanks for the video. We love DaNang and Taiwan for burning season in Chiangmai. Chaingmai gets a bad rap for air pollution. 8 months a year the air is clean and 6 months a year the temps are fantastic. This makes Chiangmai twice the destination compared to Bangkok. Both Hong Kong and Bangkok are off our traveling destinations. Obtw for relaxing weather DaLat Vietnam 🇻🇳 is your location any time a year .

Always stay city center the night before departing which has lots of foreigns and is very western. Anyway there’s a little mall by the hotel kinda like big c in Thailand and I felt like guliver. Everyone stared at me. They were very helpful when I was checking out of the store though.

Thanks for taking us on a tour of HK. Last time, we visited the HK 101 tower, we didn't get lost coming out of the MTR station, it seemed pretty easy. Oh, you should get one of those Octopus MTR cards for the subway/buses next time instead of credit card. You can also use the Octopus cards at restaurants and 7/11s plus a lot of other places. Just need to fill it up at the MTR kiosk or machines in the stations. Just wished the BKK Rabbit card would expand to cover restaurants and other establishments, like the Octopus card. The tram on the HK island side is the Victoria Peak tram, pretty awesome view from up there looking back at Kowloon. The other Tram ride you mentioned is probably the Lantau Island (near the airport). There's a big Buddha at there. They made a James Bond film there, I can't recall which one. Looking forward to your other HK vids.

Welcome to HK Greeny. The cable car you mentioned is Ngong Ping the 360. Probably the number 1 must see thing to do in HK. Ocean Park is a better option than Disney, if you have kids. If you like chinese food, HK is a food heaven for you. But the prices are not cheap, esp compare to BKK. Good thing is you're staying in Kowloon - you get a better bang for your bucks. Man I love HK, such a efficient and beautiful city.

Glad to hear that you still have your companion. In time you may realize that companion is your best friend. I think that hong kong dollars are exchanged at around 7.8-8 to the dollar. It is a nice place if you enjoy crowds. International businesses are moving out of hk. Singapore is winning their business. Hong Kong is very safe and has some great food. Its future is now tied to the mainland. I need to go to the mainland soon. It is very safe in China. No comparison with the west, but you may not find it too exciting. If you want a girlfriend then you can find one quite easily even at your age. Some very pretty leftovers, but you need to do lots of work at your age to help them to leave china. Enjoy and stay well!

I paid 50k baht for 10 year LTR visa. It’s included and no 90 day reporting.

I love Hong Kong and Singapore for short trips. Wouldn't want to live there. Bali is ridiculous now. Thailand has to take the cake due to healthcare and infrastructure.

Hong Kong. Pizza, Greek salad 1 beer $60 USD plus tip. Trendy area. Also are in local Chinese shops for real cheap. Like a tale of two worlds. Had fun. Looked at some condos. 600 Sqr ft $2500 usd a month. I’ll keep my base in Thailand
