What a fantastic place to put your roots down for a couple of months. It has lots of room as well. That view!! Absolutely love Thailand and Bangkok is such an exciting city!

@GroundedLifeRetirementTravel 24 дня назад

It really is!

@duo2travel699 24 дня назад

We are slow travelers too and are considering making Thailand a home base for 4-6 months each year as new Visa options get established. Love the unit you found in Bangkok. Please tell us the building the unit is in and what your monthly costs are for this unit. Thanks for including us on your journeys. 😊

@bangkapihappy8295 24 дня назад

Bangkok is my favorite city in the world ! My Thai wife and I have a condo in Bangkapi …. $130/month. No big fridge or stove inside but we do have a washer . My wife cooks on a gas stove on the balcony . Your view is a lot better too.

@toddaron 18 дней назад

We got a condo in Nonthaburi; we are only here for a year until Thai Wife can come to US (until Son graduates 2ndary... then back to Lat Krabang or Samut Prakan). BUT, to your point, I'd been trying to get her to do same, cooking space on balcony. She won't, but she works in a restaurant that has great rating so perhaps less meaningful. I got her a hot water kettle and rice cooker yesterday.

@methemonkeyking 24 дня назад

@Millertimestwo 24 дня назад

Hi guys! Been watching for a few months now. You two are truly inspiring us to take the leap! Since we have never been to Thailand or Asia for that matter, we are planning a scouting trip for our next vacation. A fun video idea if you have not done already would be showing or telling us what areas to check out, how much time to spend in each place, best ways to travel around, where to stay, etc. I know a lot of your current content has many of these details but one dedicated to a "test run" trip would be great. I love how you guys are open with sharing what you spend. Very curious how much for the place you are in now. Thank you for all the knowledge you are providing for the rest of us weary hopefuls!

Thank you for the thorough tour of your accommodations. Very enjoyable video.

@roddiesimmons8773 23 дня назад

So, when you get to Retirement at a much later age, and you have determined where you will live permanently there are a few things you might want to have. The most important is that you live in a one floor home, apartment etc. No falling down the stairs. I worked with my uncle when the Americans with Disability Act was created, so your doorways etc. need to accommodate strollers, wheelchairs etc. My washer / dryer is in a separate room also but there is a second door which leads to the outside with a ramp, which can be used to get in the house etc. Important is also access on a regular basis for a caretaker. I and my wife, both have dogs which are with us constantly which is a great thing to have for safety and comfort. Sounds like you are years away from this type of Retirement so just take notes and good luck in the future😎

@lizajane1878 22 дня назад

That domed building you mentioned is actually called the LeBua hotel and the bar is the Sky-bar, one of the highest outdoor bar lounge areas in the world. Keep in mind fairly strict dress code! Funny thing they actually sell clothes on the street outside to tourists to gain entry. It is famous from the movie the hangover. The river is called Chao Phraya. I know you’re building it is a pool you swim in :). You will get the hang of it the longer you stay. Enjoy Bangkok! Lots to offer!

@annhans3535 24 дня назад

Just asking, don't you feel homesick and tired of traveling? We came back to the US two weeks ago to check in on the kids and hubby is planning our new trip. I just felt tired. I want to stay in my nice bed and sleep. 🤣. I miss my kids. My kitchen. The kids are grown adults with their jobs and lives but I miss being close to them. Maybe, I need to stay home for a bit more. Have fun in the new apartment. Just don't buy too much food and store them. 💕

@indianasunshine833 24 дня назад

Loved the elevator. And how the elevator didn’t come directly into the living space. But, it’s a no for me. I got too many ties for me to do this. It’s good you have your husband with you. Sometimes it can get lonely when you’re alone.

@SoloDoloTravel 24 дня назад

Evryone asking about cost.... They most likely paid $1100 - $1300 a month for this place. Its also low season so price will increase in high season, especially during xmas and nye due to firework views.

@Travelers4Good 24 дня назад

The April 2025 ABnB monthly rate is $1,700, but they may have negotiated a lower two month rate directly with the owner outside of ABnB since they've stayed there before.

@mmqueen8070 24 дня назад

Looks very nice, but sounds like a lot of noise. We have been traveling around the world as well. The most frustrated thing is the noise when we book an Airbnb without knowing what the situation is. And it’s too late after we check in because it’s non cancealble😢.

another fantastic video. I was wondering if you have ever heard of digital nomads using air-conditioned storage lockers in Bangkok or elsewhere - to hold some items you don't want to have to carry, but don't want to have to rebuy all the time? If so, do you know the names of such facilities? definitely needs to be housed in-doors, not in lockers that are exposed to the elements.

I stayed in Sathorn last January, and it was a little quiet. I also didn't find many great restaurants (but maybe I just didn't look hard enough). I'm always wondering, how quiet are these BKK condos to live in? I hear the construction quality in the newer condos isn't very good, and I am afraid I'm going to hear my neighbors all the time. I just discovered your channel and will definitely be watching more. Thanks!
