Ranong is one of five smallest provinces of Thailand but top two with recorded heaviest rainfall. That's why we call Ranong a city of 8-month-rainfall and 4-month-sunlight. You are lucky being there with no rain. 60-70% of land is moutainous. That's why it is one of the smallest province in terms of population. Share border both land and sea with Myanmar. Some fantastic tropical islands but not as famous as those in Phuket and Krabi. Noted for hot spring. When you drive from Ranong to Chumporn, some part of the road will run along the river and you can see the land of Myanmar across that river.
When you were at the repair shop and you were pointing the parts that were being repaired... Don't use your feet next time. My Thai girlfriend hits me everyone I do it. Feet are consider very dirty and you shouldn't point to things out people using your feet in Thailand. I'm not trying to be a gatekeeper, just want to make sure you don't offend anyone in the future 🙂 I love your videos and enjoy your adventure man. Be safe and continue the great journey man.
I loved this video and it showed so many reasons why we love Thailand and will be returning again soon, long term. We will start our long term journey on Koh Samui (with a quick 2 weeks on Phuket) and the plan after 6 months to a year will be to really explore and experience the entire country and hopefully end up living in a more cultural area like you shared today!!! Thank you.!!!
You stole all my tips ;) I think most Thais know that many visitors are clueless about the foot thing, so they don't get too worked up about it. I know a Thai girl who when she counts on her fingers she starts with the middle one, so she flips me the bird for a second. When I tell her she gets embarrassed and turns red :)
Thank you Paddy for visiting Ranong, the hidden gem in the south of Thailand. It’s a small peaceful town that can make everyone feel relax and recharge. I hope that there will be more people come to visit and enjoy the green scenery like you😄
I loved your video, Paddy. I relived most of the places you showed, where I was 6 weeks ago. There are so many beautiful places that you did not cover due to time constraints probably. And I'm going back in October! I recommend you return to Ranong and explore all of it. Prim from Suriname, South America.
Another interesting vlog Paddy! Looks like the Yorkshire dales or moors in northern England 😉 The food you were eating…the roti with the curry chicken looks yummy and I hope it was for you….Cannot wait for the next vlog and thanks for sharing:)
Good day. Paddy. You made me wow again with traveling places in Southern of Thailand. Actually I m Thai and live in ESAN(North Eastern) you show the places difference from my home. Travel safe and enjoy it ครับ. And please teaches English for me too.
Hiya Paddy, always enjoyable content. Good vibes. Crazy how cheap they fixed. Dreamy. What if that spider jumped on you. Lol. Love your singing. Haha. Great video. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend. Safe travels.
Hi, I am Thai who enjoy to watch your trip clips . Hope you "becareful" when you ride the motorbike. if sometime you will wear the safety bright color shirt would be more safe. hope you good healthly along your trip (not good Eng but good heart)
Chumphon Durian One of the famous species of the country And there are beautiful seas, islands, beaches. The part in Ranong province should go to the Ka River. It's very parked during a long lagoon through the morning. watch the sunrise.
Hi Paddy, thoroughly enjoying your escapades in Thailand. Impressed with the production levels and creative editing. I spent from 1998 to 2006 living and working in Thailand and to this day still consider it home in a strange way. Love the ‘off the beaten track’ vibe and your ability in showing the other side of this beautiful country, well done. Food is such an important part of the culture and I always thought it would be good to show how these wonderful street chefs create such culinary delights. Not that I don’t enjoy watching you eat them Mate x
Hey Ranong Province is one of my favorite provinces in Thailand. It was an area of tranquility. Friendly people, beautiful nature. And trees that are green all year because of the rain that falls in a year for up to 8 months There is a large fishing port that brings marine resources. It was sold all over the country. With a distance of about 500 kilometers from Bangkok, I like to drive to relax here often. The main road into the city is really cool because it has 120 km to 499 curves. Motorcyclists in Thailand often gather together and set out on a trip here. When I came across this video, I had to prepare to go to Ranong again. Thank you very much for bringing back memories.
@@Selial Dollars were needed for the first Ten years I Would say when I used to go from fishing peir over to Kawthung Immigration last five Years have been going over to the island that has a Resort/Casino and an Immigration Point as Well bit more Expensive but Quicker and Done by Speedboat and Good Food Amazing Views and Thai Baht was Ok there Have even found Remains if an old British Airport hiding at the Back of Kawthung Mountain which was taken over by the Japanese in 1941 Invasion during WW2
Lived in Ranong area for 3 years back in the 1990's no English spoken ! Consevative Locals really friendly! No bar girls! just old fashioned Thailand country town..👍
Wow Paddy, just wanted to let you know i realy dig your series, the intro makes it all worth it buddy👊 Thanks for sharing this lovely piece of thailand, the people and the nature (that big scary looking 🕷) This is the future of TV and you are rocking 💪
I totally get that you should do videos with two budgets etc but these vids where you do random shiiiii are my faves and make me miss bprateet tai so much. I would love to have jumped into the telly and hung out by the side of the road whilst the bike gets changed. 50 baht, AND you get a coffee and a leaf! Life does not get more beautiful than this 🥰
The audio sounds good Paddy with that in cam mic and the windsock. The province is as beautiful as you say. Seems very sleepy and laid back there. Glad you found a replacement for the drone locally. As I said I do have one I put your name on and can send it to you if you want to have a backup. I have never used it so I would rather see it in your hands getting a use or at least give you the comfort that you have a backup.
'Natural⛲Hot-springs' @ Ranong Some hotels have piped Thermal⛲ water, though for a Rock-bottom Hot-Bath experience, go to Buddhist temples situated there & have invigorating Bath /Shower @ basic cubicles _@ a pittance (~US 1)
Brother Paddy, did you tip the boy that got you your drone. Sometimes those current can get crazy. Even 100 baht is enough to show sign of appreciation.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video Paddy. It was like I was there with you rather than being shown view points etc. Strangely, I enjoyed the motorcycle repair shop, how can it be two cheap. Thank you, from an rainy London
Looks great there Paddy, I've been to Thailand several times but never that area... I don't have a vehicle there so I don't know if I'll every make it there but it looks lovely. Great job!
Those people are the people who has surname that given by King Rama 6. These surname only give to people who lives in that area for long time and well know by people in the area. The one you saw, thier surname is Na-Ranong (in Thai as - At Ranong), which represent their ancestor are from Ranong. This surname is forbidden normal people to use coz it has to be given by King only. It is also againt the law for thai people to do so. There are others such as Na-Chiangmai, Na-Ayutthaya, etc. However, i do not think there is Na-Bangkok coz I have never heard one and it would sound weird. LOL.
quite prevalent all over Asia. I always figure if there are lots of spiders and insects that the area is very clean. When I was in Laos cruising the Mekong several years ago I was struck by the abundant insect life.
What a hidden gem of an area. Beautiful! But you are right, Paddy - it looked like you were riding a meadow in the English countryside. Now just need a pub serving English Ales with Fish & Chips and Oasis in the jukebox.
I was thinking "No dude time for a new bike" and then you had to splurge 50 baht on a chain and 2 sprockets and I thought "That Honda is just fine". I would think I got an absolute bargain at 500 baht
Ok dear Paddy. Here’s my instinct of a teacher. Try saying Cha manow instead of chai manow. Say it 21 times none stop. “Cha manow “. Now associate with cha-cha dancing, like it’s so good and it make you want to dance the cha cha cha. May I please have a cha cha chamaow . Man, the roti and curry look sooooo good. Keep up the good job and Have a safe travel.
That province looks interesting. I was just looking at the map and wondered if you went to the Lamnam Kri Buri National Park? Although you have probably left by now. I was also wondering if you know anything about the islands off the coast there (Koh Chang, etc)?
I am thai and I first heard the guy said 550 baht. I think maybe Paddy got it wrong. 50 baht is too cheap to be real for what was replaced and repaired.
When the spider moved, it made me scream hate spiders! Don't like cows very much either! Looked like our Welsh fields. Poor Dreamy goes everywhere bless. Cath and Kevs
I use to get Roti like that in Kenya. It’s really good with peas and carrots and beef gravy. Yah, with the price of Honda repair in Thailand I’m definitely getting a Honda. Probably 300 Rally.
you should got a portable air pump ,if you plan too off road..release the air from the back tire to gain grip...when back to the maim road use the portable air pump to pump back the air to the rear tire hi, from malaysia ...new youtuber ....^-^
If you use the camera function on Google translate. You can point your camera at most of the signs in Thai language. It will immediately translate it for you. You have to be in Thai language going to English. Select the camera mode at the bottom of the screen on Google translate. Point your camera at the nearest sign in Thai language. And voila.......
Lol, the spider is a golden orb weaver. And that’s NOT a he, that’s a she. The males are tiny in comparison. I live in Florida and we have them here as well. I’m sure a slightly different variation but almost identical.

After seeing the cemetery it is definitely a Chinese Cemetery, they are known as horse-Shoe graves, they have them all over Asia, the shape is designed upon Fung Shui. Normally a family plot...
They (rich Chinese) love to snap up land under a mountain and/or near the road for their monuments. Of course you can only buy land in Thailand if your Thai but if you have enough money then you can get what you need.
Good luck with your RU-vid channel. I've been teaching in thailand for going on 12 years. Your new camera is great. 2 random thoughts...the cock temple..what do you suspect that the monks do with the thousand of roosters that they get every year. 2nd...when you set up your camera to get the departing shot do you ever forget and say "Shit...I need to go back and get my camera."
