Hotels are so affordable you could book for a night if you’re partying in the city and go home in the morning

Left the city in NJ after 8 years, now 4 years in a small beach town. Nyc is only an hour away. The calmness away from the chaos is much healthier.

I’m the exact same, I bought a condo in Lower Sukhumvit, I loved it at first. Stayed in it 5-6 years. Now I rent my condo out and I’ve rented a townhouse just out towards Samut Prakan. If I’m having a mad night out in Bangkok I’ll get a cheap room for the night around Sukhumvit and get the BTS in the morning 😃

the great thing about moving to the burbs is, condo or estate, most of your neighbours leave for work or school in the morning and return at night, so the pool, gym, streets etc are basically yours during the daytime......

Keisy!!!!! A lot of sense. You and Dan. Hope to be back soon . Love your work mate 🙏

Well in Keis, will be a good move for the mind, body and soul! Great to see Dan well too 😊

This new place is awesome....drone shot was really beautiful good to see Dan ..

I only lasted 2 years in Asoke. Then went nuts. You are now starting to fit in…nice to see the novelty has worn off. Welcome to Thailand! I only go into Sukhumvit once or twice a month.

This is actually pretty insightful. I spent two months in bkk recently and every few weeks I kept moving further out but it was just too busy for me. Good to know if I went a bit further it looks like this. Definitely appreciate the extra green space

Did the same decision a year ago here in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Was living in the city for 5 years. And yes, there’s nothing better to move 30mins away from there to green natural place. In big house, with plenty space to play with my Cafe Racer, flying drones and etc. Definitely way to go mate!

Keep on going, keep on growing mate 👍

good video and nice to see Dan again hopefully see more of you both together doing videos again.

that is why i enjoy Salaya. great vid mate. i noticed the difference also with the train trip heading home. less and less people. so quiet

Wow! Would not have recognized Dan. Seems like the online courses is the way to go for you guys. Best of luck.

Yeah man I dig it. I just spent two months in Da Nang and now back in Thonglo and I've just been saying the same thing to myself, the noise, traffic and feeling of eveything being ontop of me is overwhelming this time.

Awesome bro the change will be good

Nice to see Dan...your live stream together was always fun to watch... Will he come back to KZfaq? For sure I would move away from the chaos of central Bangkok and going to live in a quieter place, if you have the means of doing it just go for it.. Bangkok is only a few train stops whenever you need to go to do your stuff

I think the move will be good for your spirit like you said you have grown from when you first got there and different needs so congratulations good luck on your next chapter in your life blessings abundantly to you... all my aloha to you- thanks for bringing Dan on I miss seeing his videos too

Good to see Dan again! Wise choice to move outside of the city centre. I used to live on 101 and it was so much better than 25 were I used to live before. Now living in Samui in the mountains which is even better. Stay safe bro 🙏

youre right keis, mad peaceful

Best of luck on the move. Robert here. I’ll be back in Jan/Feb. Hopefully we can meet up. Covid postponed our last attempt when I was there last

I worked in NYC on several projects over my career, but after so many weeks had to fly back home and cut grass and stuff and home where it is much more quiet and my way of living, but NYC is fun as heck !!! Cool that you will still be able to enjoy downtown BK with a short train ride if you make the move in the future ! :)

As we grow, our dreams grow and change , have fun, and keep living the dream

Hi Adam. Your move makes perfect sense. Bangkok, Pattaya and Patong are great places to live if you are single, want constant stimulation or just getting to live in Thailand for the first time. Cha Am, Hua Hin and Kamala Beach are all better places to live if you’re not single and want a more stable life. They still have places to have fun, are easily accessible and are nicely laid back. Nice to see Dan again!

Awesome vlog bro. Love the suburban areas of Bangkok, its more chilled and way quiet. Nice to see Dan. Does he still have his youtube channel? Looking forward to seeing your new crib. 🤙🏽😊

so good to see dan again wish he was still posting vloggs a great miss, thanks for sharing

You stand on the top of building, have good views surrounded by many skyscrapers and your work station desk is so cool 👍💯😀

nooooo not the suburbs. don’t do it keis!

Great video and good to see Dan again 👍. That’s a nice townhouse complex where he’s at…what area is that in and what BTS stop is closest?

Film the view, pop it on a screen in your new home 😉 Enjoy your new quieter lifestyle!

nice quiet spot that one Kies , think you will enjoy it there or similar ... good luck in hunting

It's nice living outside the city, I live on the outskirts of London, nice suburban area 35min from central. Its much better to get away from the hussle and bussle of the cities.

Crushing it ❤

How good is to hear and see Dan…..

Sounds like a great idea to get away from the congestion. I didn’t recognize Dan. For a minute there I thought he was Ringo Starr lol

I only lasted one year on Sukhumvit 101 for a year before moving to Jomtien. From one crazy to another. Good to see Dan

Awesome... I lived out in Bang Sue just off Prachachuen Road in a cool little area for around 2 years. 10 minute walk from Tao Poon MRT. Not the same vibe as Thonburi but similar to what you were saying about being quieter, and central still being available within 20-30 mins by MRT/BTS. When asked where I was located by people I'd meet around central, the reaction was mostly a smug smile and, "Oh, you're miles out," but I absolutely loved it and it kept my attitude a lot more chill compared to said people. A few cool little bars, subculture scene, a nice market, and sweetheart locals to beat the band. Happy days for you coming, looking forward to seeing how it goes for ya!

The big disadvantage I see to a gated place is you don't have a roti vendor outside your door. You actually have to walk (or drive) somewhere to get to anything.

It was awesome to see Dan again. I no longer can find any of his vlogs. Will he come back to KZfaq? Did he change his channel? Keep up the great work! Thanks

We moved from Rama 9 to Thonburi area earlier this year. Best decision ever!

I never thought I’d hear you say you were tired of the Bangkok chaos! Can’t wait to see where you settle. And oh my goodness I would never have recognised Dan with his dark beard. He looks so different. Wishing you all the very best with the move. #grownup

Totally get it. The novelty soon wears off. That's why I like Hua Hin so much. Different pace of life. Can ride my scooter everywhere and the beach is a bonus. If I need to do any serious shopping (for things not on Lazarda) it's only a few hours into BKK. Great to see Dan!

One of my absolute favorite things about Bangkok is getting a grab/bolt bike through really thick traffic these guys really dice with accidents everyday but I always feel so confident in whoever picks me up they’ve been doing this all their lives and it’s so great to feel the hustle of the city.. Come on guy I’m 60 this year trust me keep challenging yourself keep moving n pushing YOLO 😅 Love your content K 🙏👊

its a bit crazy as to how getting just a little older changes your perspective on peace and quiet. Just the shot of that train from getting on to getting off tells the whole story as to why the move makes so much sense.

I much prefer it in the suburbs , I’m 25 mins from Sukhumvit. I prefer it this way can pop in when I want to.. having just got my Thai Driving Licence I am looking forward to driving in & too slightly ‘quieter’ areas

You'll be back bro :)

Cheers mate, 🙂

ขอบคุณสำหรับการรีวิว🏡

Nice to see Dan again. The Algorythm doesn't show him any more for me. That looks like a great place. Good for you.

i 100% think you should definitely move to a bit out of the city. i love city center bkk but just being out of the hustle and bustle of all the tourist, hawkers, craziness makes a difference especially when it comes to how quiet and more laid back will make a huge difference. more local areas are also great since you will find things to be more cheaper. i hope you find a spot that really appeals your wants and needs and make the move a reality. good luck out there

About time

good luck :)

Everyone leaves the city at some point especially Bangkok. Outside the city is better make sure you're close to public transit and you're set. Enjoy.

Exactly did the same in manila after 5 years in BGC...cleaner air and less stress....think you will love it .....

Great video and nice to see Dan again. Will he come back to KZfaq ?? We all miss him 😢

Absolutely can’t believe your moving from your apartment into a new place. Sounds like you will be getting a car shortly. I wonder if the walking videos will be a thing of the past in a few months? Hopefully you love your new place.

I like Sriracha. One hour south of BKK and 30 mins north of Pattaya. Its a coastal town but with a twist.

Keisy, you are growing up, natural to move to quieter area, party days slowing . Enjoy

Nice one. I have move out of the central Bangkok and I must admit that I do miss the centre of Bangkok. I actually want to move away from Bangkok in a few years time for sure. Not sure where to go. But Yeah! Thonburi is great to live. You'll have a good time there for sure.

Quite a change, but maybe it is time. As much as I like hanging in Sukhumvit sometimes, the burbs or for me a nice quite place like Hua Hin. It is nice to just jump in your car and go. Good luck in your decision.

It’s nice to see Dan again! Does he have a KZfaq channel?

Good move dude. I said to a friend about 6 weeks ago that " this guy isn't going to last much longer" In the end- everyone has to grow up.

Congrats bro

BKK and Pattaya are great to visit for 3 or 4 days.... every 4 or 5 weeks we jump on the X max and spend a week or so riding.. Then back to Khon Kaen till next time..

I'm Leaving My Home in BANGKOK... To Bangkok.

Thats awesome you are getting out of the city core,,, but as you mentioned at the end of the video,,, you did not choose to move to Pattaya,,,, my opinion that would have been worse... I am in Jomtien and I have been thinking of moving over to somewhere between Wutthakat and Krung Thon Buri on the BTS line. Will be waiting to see your future videos of your new neighborhood... cheers

Im happy in the Bangkok burbs. House, garden and a small workshop. If you haven’t signed your lease yet maybe the south eastern suburbs like Bangna could be interesting for you. Can shave another 30 minutes off a trip to Pattaya. Still only 30 minutes to Asoke by BTS. But if you work on your own time you can also easily avoid traffic.

❤️❤️❤️❤️Keis 1 🍻🍻🍻

are there any good areas in the outskirts of bangkok you can recommend to checkout? preferably still have some delivery options and stuff.

Should have of considered Hua Hin (I do like it here as a former regular in Patong) but it's definitely a lot further to Bangkok or Pattaya if that's where you need to be. Enjoy the serenity.

Same for me I am moving out of the city very soon to some place much quieter

Makes sense for your lifestyle shift. I think I am like how you were originally... I think I prefer the chaos of the city but I have no desire to ride a bike around town or own a car there. I think I would miss all those conveniences right at my doorstep.

Can you start doing some house tours/price breakdowns in some of the townhouses and suburbs? A lot of people are interested in this and would love to get a look at some areas and different price options

Dan!!!!! Miss seeing him with Adam so much. How has he been?

👍🏼🍻🇦🇺 Mint to see Dan !

the playe is good unless you forget that the trains stop driving at midnight. cant drive home after a night out.

You will miss the chaos and convenience but some quiet time for a few years will work. I enjoy the conveniences and food choices of a big city, if I lived outskirts of Bangkok their better be a mall, and some Grab delivery available LOL

one other thing~ you wont be surrounded by skyscrapers that cast shadows over entire neighborhoods anymore 😎 something i wasnt even in tune with til recently ... walking around parts of manhattan is depressing bc of this ^

It be so nice to find a couple like-minded influencers to occupy a large house! Having a specific room set up for podcast. Another room specifically set up for editing. One or two extra guest bedrooms… And just overall a really nice place! p.s. I emailed you about a consultation.

I don't know how you can walk around in that open sauna that is Bangkok fully clad. Do you burn easy? Allergic to sandals perhaps?

I think a lot of it comes down to being in a relationship and no need to be in the middle of it anymore. If you're single, you probably wouldn't make the move, my guess.

Bit like Windsor Richmond, nice move mate 👍

Awwwwww, I miss Dan and grumpy.😕

I can imagine after a while you would get sick of the chaos

Seems like the new girlfriend is helping you mature a little! Good on you Mate, keep moving forward 🤘

It's literally like my room when I was 12.

Where is that area you got on the BTS Adam ?

The city is still so much better to live in. Close to all the convenience. Why bother living in the burbs when it takes you 20 minutes to just get outside of the neighbourhood and then having to commute into the city.

Where do you Go?To north Finnland?

So age is a problem now? (sory for the sarkasm). You learn every day. Congrates to your awakening. 👍❤

You're going to find in time, that you are not going to be going into the city unless you really have to, and when you do, it's going to feel like it's a hassle and not a pleasure.

Been in Bangkok for almost 20 years and can't imagine myself living anywhere else, well, maybe Chiang Rai, that place is really nice!

How much in rent for the houses in this video

Does Dan stil have any active channels?

Thumbs up 👍 Adam…..should’ve moved to Phuket 🏝️

good luck on finding a new place. can you tell me, ballpark, what you are paying now per month for your place in the city?

Do you need to be based in Bangkok? Jomtien near Pattaya is cheaper than Bangkok and near the sea. The air is also fresher.

Good to see Dan. I was wondering what happened to him

Dan the Man! How's grumpy? I saw her at one of the malls in BKK
