Today I visit my daughter Annie's new one bedroom condo in bangkok. It was a bit of a rush job getting this condo and I'm excited to see where Annie will be staying for the next 2 years. We also go and play a bit of snooker and have a yummy lunch.

When I rent out my condos the cleaning of the air-cons are done every 6 months, paid by the tenant which is 500 baht, we have 4 units so we get a good price on the cleaning and they do a good job, so much so we get them to our house also. For Plum Condo we rent out @7K so might have to raise our prices.

That place looks incredible! I've just had words with my own dad about my student days and the accomodation HE organised for me. "Where was my tropical infinity pool dad ? How about my luxury co working space, state of the art gym, steam room & sauna and cooking studio? What sort of dad are you? " "I'm 84, leave me alone" he said. "And where was I supposed to find a tropical infinity pool in Glasgow in 1986?" I'm not happy with his answers to be honest, or his complete lack of accountability. I might have to put him in a home I told him - and one without a cooking studio. In all seriousness though James your daughter is very clearly a really lovely person and your relationship with her is obviously fantastic. All credit to you and your missus of course for raising her right. I have no kids of my own but I was back in Scotland this summer and spent a lot of time with my 20 year old neice who is reading Physics at Edinburgh just now and my nephew who is 16 so just doing O levels and they are really great kids. Well not kids any more I guess, but great young adults. I feel like the younger generation oftentimes gets a bad rap from us oldies these days and in my experience at least unfairly so.

FYI....Theyre called glow plugs James. Unlike petrol spark plugs these things need to heat up the combustion chamber to start the engine. I have the same make n model as you and have to replace mine regularly here in Oz, during winter is worst. Im jealous of you n your daughter living the dream in my favorite country. Enjoy.

Nice complex with lots of cool amenities. Looks more like a resort than student accommodation. Couldn't help doing the comparison with what is on offer here in Australia which is much more utilitarian than bkk. So the condos are owned by private owners? Looks like tertiary education has spawned an industry around it for accommodation and investors as well.
@jamesabroad8589
@jamesabroad8589 11 месяцев назад

From what Annie says, Kave condos are more expensive , but close to BU. There are apartments near the university but not so good security and electricity/water up to owner. Plum a bit further away but ok and reasonably priced. Good luck.👍

What is that white and black thing on the table, plugged in. Is that some sort of projector? 16:38 (That is quite an amazing setup for a college student, or anybody. Fairly large refrigerator, microwave, Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil, a rice cooker, and..... Something called a SMARTHOME, in black, but I don't know what that is either.). It seems to be the case that, for a given amount of money, BKK seems to offer higher quality and better living in places like this.

Not in a negative way. However, I do know some people who have had bad experiences of racism. Boils down to luck and educating your child and giving them good self-esteem.
