Today's adventure coming from Udon Thani, a city in Isaan, Thailand. Is Udon a city i could live in the future as an expat in Thailand?
We kick things off by checking out the bustling morning markets nearby. There's always something exciting to discover in these vibrant markets! Then, it's time to hit the streets of Udon Thani and see what this city has to offer. Along the way, I chat with some locals and give you my very early initial thoughts and feelings about the place.
Whether it's a good vibe or a bad vibe, I'll be sharing my opinions!

Udon's actually quite a bit bigger than the area around the train station. There's a really big lake with huge rubber ducks on it, which is a popular picnic spot, for instance.. There's also a bit of a shopping area south of the train station. The bike would be quite useful for just exploring the town. I walked around myself, but it would have been easier with a bike I imagine.
@WalkAboutWayne
@WalkAboutWayne 5 месяцев назад
Sure, most places are always bigger than what you see. The lakes looked ok. It would be easy to walk in and around the town, I like that part of Udon. Cheers.

Wayne... You wondered about Kalasin. It isn't far from U.T. About 40,000 people. I was there over ten years ago. ( Waiting gor my bar girlfriend's dad to die. Think he is still dying). Anyway, i probably was the only farang in town. Many curious, but polite stares. Interestingly, one of the best dinosaur museums is nearby in the state park. You might google it. Also, ask the girls there if they have a dying dad. Could be fun.

Will definitely get across to Udon one day. I really want to visit Nong Khai, about 80km North of Udon, on the Thai/Laos border. Yeah have no time for people who think they can threaten people. If you are going to do something like frequenting prostitutes, then wear your behaviour, don't harass other people who are enjoying their holiday, because you are doing something you don't want Mum to see.

On another note, Some (not all) of the Pattaya mob must have serious anger issues hey, probably haven't got much to do but "B-tch & H-ate" on others, heard there is a quite spot named the Darkside near Pattaya that is fairly quite. you are very chilled so stay that way, thats why we subscibe.

Great video mate - the people in UT are very friendly, just like you experienced - very livable place , I think the “. Entertainment “ was pricey to what I expected - Khon Kaen I found the people & ladies to be more conservative & not many farangs when I was there last week - Happy days ✌️✔️👌👋👍🙏

I might be a bit wrong , but I assumed Udon Thani was a popular spot for cheap charlie Mongers :) Ive seen it mentioned in videos and comments sections the bar girls are cheaper than the touristy spots, No idea myself never been there

I'm not sure about popular, maybe a bit cheaper than your well known Monger places. Can find that in any chilled Thai town like this though. There are a few mongies flying about for sure, same in every Thai city. I wouldn't say popular though, it's dead . 👍

I spent 3 days in Udon on my way to Laos, those 3 days were more than enough, nice town but I got a bit bored after a while, the most memorable part of my time there was a good night out with a nice lady
