The Daily Cost Of Eating Thai Food In Thailand 

Thank you, Bakergirl68. 🙏🏼

I'm happy you like the content. 👊🏼 The translator still works, but the battery life is terrible after two years. I'm looking to get a different one this year. I'm also trying some of the apps on my iPhone 15 Pro. The phone apps were always so laggy, and I needed cell service. In Thailand, it is okay because I use AIS cell service, but when traveling to other countries for a few days, I prefer a translator, so I don't need to mess with getting a SIM card for that country.

Thanks, Dean!

You're welcome and thank you for watching, Fred. 🙏🏼

Thank You. 🙏🏼

The people and the food are the things I love most about Thailand.

Sounds wonderful, Lol.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. I attached links to my grocery shopping video and my local Thai Market video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1Lcl7mG5Dd4.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IeOg9JUJjLE.html

I know, all my Thai friends tell me this. Lol The only reason I continue to eat with a frok is because I eat too much rice when eating with a spoon. I inherently just consume more of the calories that make my belly fat when using a spoon. I know it sounds weird, but eating with a fork is an easy way for me to reduce rice intake.

Unfortunately now it’s all coming out about Thai Food is Not Healthy actually Diabetes is epidemic and all those lovely ingredients that make it taste good are extremely bad for you ? Cheap maybe but Healthy I don’t think so ! Just saying ,as they say in Thailand - Up To You 555555555 !

I agree, most Thai food that people love is not too healthy. I personally avoid the fried food, sugary drinks, alcohol and limit the rice. The stir fried food is some of the most damaging, extremely inflammatory. I can eat healthy in every country I've spent time in, but it does take a little extra effort in Thailand.

I love eating all of this different food, so delicious.

I take it easy on the rice, sugar, and alcohol. Limiting those 3 things makes it fairly easy to stay fit.

Thank you 🙏🏼

You're welcome, and thank you! 👊🏼 I rarely use cash. I use the Kasikorn Bank K Plus app with my iPhone to pay for most things. Most vendors have a QR code I scan at checkout. It's much faster and more convenient than using credit cards or cash. I also use the app to withdraw cash, if needed, from a Kasikorn ATM. Cardless ATM withdraw. I used cash and American Express years ago before opening a Thai bank account. It is safe to carry cash and cards everywhere in Thailand. It's the safest developing country I've been to. I feel just as safe here as I do in the US. However, I don't drink or hang around the tourist go-go bars and nightclub areas. My experience might be different if I did.

The pocket translator has been a very handy tool while traveling the world.

@@JakeSnowLiveSimple where did you buy it from. Can you add the link

@@Joshua_X12, I purchased the translator through Amazon. Here is the link, and I'll add it to the video description. amzn.to/3Eu7ipZ

@@JakeSnowLiveSimple thank you so much

@@Joshua_X12 you’re welcome 👊🏽

Thanks, Dee.

My #1 living expense in the US is food. I love living in Thailand; cheap, delicious food.

There is another steamed chicken & rice place I go to in Pattaya at a local market. It's delicious and only 80 baht per meal. I could eat 3 meals for $7.17 for the day. However, that's too little food for me and It's rare I eat the same food for every meal in one day. I need more nutrients to feel good, but somebody could survive on much less food than what I consume.

Hello, I use the Pocketalk Model S. I purchashed it on Amazon for about $250 and I've used it for 1 year now. The pocket translator is much faster than translating with my iPhone 12, that's been my experience.

@@JakeSnowLiveSimple Thank you!

@@JakeSnowLiveSimple translator tip - keep sentences short and use basic simple words. The more complex the sentences or vocabulary, the more likely for errors in the translation. I've found this true across many different Apps or devices.

Good advice, I agree. Attempting technical or deep conversation with a translator can be very frustrating at times.

Thank you! 🙏🏼 😂

The places I go to often give me double meat, extra veg, and light on the rice. This last year, I ordered food with no rice. Within a few visits to a new place, they remember me and make my order how I liked it.

Yes, I’ll get a gym video out soon.

Wanting cheap n chilled out

Jomtien Beach area in Pattaya is far enough away from Pattaya Beach and the clubs/bars I think it's more relaxed and has many cheap apartments. I also liked areas in Phuket near Patong Beach. Chiang Mai in Northern Thailand is also a popular city for people that want to get away and are not into the night clubs.

I also spent time in Udon Thani, which is very cheap to live. However, few people speak English there.

Hello, and thank you. 🙏🏼 The translator is the pocket talk S. I will be replacing it soon. I believe there are some better ones on the market now, and they cost less.

Thank you very much for the info. Please keep making your excellent videos.@@JakeSnowLiveSimple

You're welcome. I'll do my best. 👊🏼

It's the Pocketalk Model S. It's very easy to use. I purchased mine from Amazon. amzn.to/3L9cm7c

Delicious prison food.

I'm not sure. Where in the video did you hear that?

😂

It was the first thing that came to my mind when trying to let the viewer know I wasn't in an ExPat or tourist area.

We know what you meant.......... but it’s funny.

I agree, I need to eat more.

Hi Mr. Y's, what are you asking me?

@@JakeSnowLiveSimple Im g🏳️‍🌈

@@mrys7727 Oh, I see. I'm not, I like the ladies😉
