Living in Jomtien or Pattaya. Some Handy Tips For Living in Thailand 

Thank you. 😎

Yes, has so many items. 👍

Yeah, he's okay. 🤣

You can buy them from the 7-Eleven, but they are very expensive. I don't think you can play cards in public. I will look into that. 👍

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. 😎

You're welcome, Gerald. 🙏

You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it. 😎

Cheers, Karl. 👍

Glad you like them. 😎

Yep. 😎

Thank you, Gerald and Kim for continuing to support my channel. 🙏

So true, Richard. 👍

@@oneendofthailand The Costa-del-Thanet springs to mind, except that at-least they too have sandy-beaches, not those pebble-things many of us Brits were used to, as kids ! Hah !

Yes, but as kids we have different standards. 🤣

Go in the evening, when the sun go down...

Thank you. 👍

Ha ha, that made me laugh out loud. Thanks. 🤣

I really like how Heath add his droid footage to his videos. This is something that I have wanted to get into for sometime.

Thank you. 😎

You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it. 👍

Makes a nice snack. 😎

Ha ha. 🤣

Cheers, Jeff. And good luck with your channel. 👍

Thanks so much, Robert. I appreciate that. 🙏

@@oneendofthailand Is it possible to take the train from Jomtien to Bangkok?

Not at the moment. The buses are the best option. 😎

Well, they are very advanced. 😐

You're welcome. 👍

It's a good area to stay. 👍

I will be doing more of those soon. Is this of interest? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rYt6esgreJw.html 👍

@@oneendofthailand I think this is useful and I was also thinking about purchasing a condo.

@@edwinneill5172 You might want to try these people. She is a friend of mine. www.royalpropertythailand.com/

I think it depends on the time of day, but the beach is never over-busy, except for Thai holidays.

Yes. It is illegal to ride a motorbike or drive a car, shirtless. I should have mentioned that. 😎

Thank you. I guess some can't handle the heat. 😎

You're welcome. 🙏

Yes. 😎

Thai drivers totally ignore zebra crossings. However, there has been some pedestrian crossings added to some of the the busier roads.

Always maintain eye contact with motorcycle riders and vehicles and walk a steady pace without hesitation.

"Rules" I think you misspelled "suggestions" ?!? 😂

Where? @@davidboston4136

Hi Phil. You need to be registered with the NBTC, CAAT and have drone insurance. Doe this video help? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x0NkJBqKq1A.html

Na Jomtien is the far end of the beach after Soi 19. There are a few expensive condos in Na Jomtien but other condo prices are about the same. You can get similar deals.

Yes. 😎

Yes,very halty food,u will not last long 😂😂😂😂😂

Thanks, Rik. Yes, it has been very hot lately. 👍

Not at all. 👍

It's the translation of the English word. Doesn't seem to be on many bars, but you'll notice it in restaurants and larger companies.

Thanks for the extra info. Yes, I meant to mention the pointing. I guess you are looking forward to the next Buddha Day. 🤣

that's the reason Thais will often "point" with their chin when giving directions, i used to think it was rude or lazy before i found out, also beckoning with the palm facing up is almost inviting someone to fight with you, much more polite to beckon with the palm facing down

Hi Billy. Not a simple answer, but I have covered a lot in my past videos that you may find informative. Hope they help. 👍

Who would know? 😀

This was my old drone which had no anti-avoidance, and it drifted back into the trees. It still recorded video to the SD card in the drone. The sounds were added 😎.

Thanks for your comment. 👍

There's loads I never mentioned. I haven't heard that one but It sounds like the sort of thing. I think most of this customs are not known even to young Thais. It's nothing to worry about in the more tourist areas were Western ignorance is tolerated.

Never. 😁

Ah, I have a new drone now. DJI Mini 3 Pro. I started with a budget drone (SJRC F11 Pro). The budget drone didn't tell me how many satellites it was connected to, so without a good GPS lock, I think I took off with a few short and it drifted. Best to let you drone hover for 20 seconds before shooting off into the sunset. 😎

@@oneendofthailand Ok, I have a 6 years old Mavic Pro and never had such bad luck but if it's a budget drone, no wander why they're cheap

Cheers, Chris. Always at my Friday evening hangout in Soi Welcome. 😎👍

My old drone was an SJRC F11 Pro. They are very difficult to register in Thailand due to them not having a serial number, so don't buy one of those if you want to fly here.

@@oneendofthailand had one not good

@@oneendofthailand the specifications on that drone looks good but its poor range and reception unfortunately I have a mini 2 now and I did ask you if you could help me sort out my thai licence I have insurance and my uk licence but not clear on what to do

​@@abitofeverything2254 I sent you links and my video explaining how to register.

@@oneendofthailand didn't get anything Heath..?

This section of the beach becomes busy in the evenings. I would say it's best to stay somewhere where the beaches are not so busy.

@@oneendofthailand thanks much! Is Jomtien a good choice for an American ExPat living on roughly $2300 a month? With prices What they are in the United States now,, it’s clear that I need to get out of Dodge. Currently I’m 69 years old and pretty arthritic. I need a one floor living arrangement .. stairs are not nice to me. Originally I thought about buying an apartment, but after watching your video and a few others I think perhaps it may be wise for me to find a place that suits me that I can afford as reasonably as possible and get maybe a six month or 12 month lease so that if I find I don’t like the area, I have both time to search out a replacement and then if I want to I’ll buy a place. My current living situation is becoming untenable. I’ve got a three-story townhouse that I paid down on the mortgage pretty heavily so when I sell this place I’ll have some money to take with me. Since everything I own is American, I’ll need to sell the contents of my home, sell my car. sell the home itself and get myself all the needed visa’s and paperwork needed to arrange my finances moving to Thailand. Initially, I plan to use Tuk Tuks or the like for basic transportation. I’m too old for a scooter.. At some point I’ll need a small inexpensive car that’s capable of fitting my 6’4” 210lb body relatively comfortably and reasonably efficiently. I really don’t envision driving around that much, but in as much as my mobility is somewhat reduced due to age and arthritis, a car seemed like the most logical choice. Let me know if you have a recommendation. I won’t be bringing much with me other than clothes and my musical menagerie (10 guitars and multiple amps and accessories .) Will my iPod Air Gen4, My Asus recent Windows Laptop and my One Plus 8T phone be useable in Thailand? (All are capable of Wi-Fi 6) I realize I will need a new phone plan and Internet access. Have any thoughts that will help me?

You can easily live on that budget. No tuk tuks in this area but the Baht bus is easy to use. All okay with your electronic devices but be aware you will probably have to pay import duty on the guitars. @@REBELSCL

​@@REBELSCLit's busy on a night for Reason 😂

It surprised me also when I first heard this. I checked several sources, it's true. 😎

Yes. 😎

With CRAB, it's not the P you pronounce, it's more a cross between P and B. Moo is PIG, although it's used when ordering in a restaurant as you are basically ordering pig. 👍

Many wouldn't say anything but why when it's not customary in Thailand to dine shirtless? 😐

I think a lot of these old customs seem to be ignored now, even amongst young Thais.

@oneendofthailand you might be right. The young Thais are very western influenced

It also depends on your location. Here in Buriram we don't tip at all.

I have no idea what you are talking about or the point of your comment.

Thank you, Sanjeevi for supporting my channel. This is very kind of you. 🇹🇭 🙏
