Richy, I have a suggestion for you. You are working so hard travelling around and smashing the content with daily uploads. Have a look into algorithms (video titles and thumbnails). If you can manage to nail these two then your channel will grow exponentially. Also try and upload a short each day as well with focus on title and especially thumbnail. Don't take this the wrong way, but I think it's holding your channel back a little. Keep up the good work...

No wonder you were hungry so soon after your breakfast, the rice, banana and orange are all sugars which will set you up for a glucose rollercoaster for the rest of the day. That was good advice about the cooking oil, grilled meat and fish is much healthier and makes for a great breakfast. Enjoyed your video as I want to visit there next year.

Whoa, that was busy for the morning market, it seemed. Is that the indication Hua Hin is much more family friendly with everyone going to bed early 😅 Glad those dogs never nipped you. Pretty aggressive for people walking by. All that squid drying out, I've never seen so many in one spot! When you showed that canal and the old exercise machines, I didn't 6expect you to turn around and show the sea! Amazing. Along the coast, it looked like one side of the pier was local, and the other side more modern and built up? I didn't realise it was so far from Pattaya that you could fly? Good prices in the food court, surprisingly!

Hi Greg, it was very family friendly there. It was so relaxing, also the dogs were a pain. Some places in Bangkok I’ve seen thousands of squid, a lot of people put them on the rooftops to. I’ve seen being told you can’t fly from one to the other, I seen that on the Road2Rio app. It is far to drive as it’s on the other side of the sea, so you would have to go back up to Bangkok and down the other side.

Hi Richy. Long time resident here. I enjoy your channel and your style. I agree with earlier comments about showing more of the scenery and less of your handsome mug😂 Can I add that watching you eat close up is not really necessary just show us the food. Tip for Soi dogs: look at the dog and reach down to the ground as if going to pick up a stone. Like magic they are gone. I used to live in Prachuap. Great place. Sure you will enjoy it. If you have time climb Monkey Hill. Have a good day. Regards Mike

Koh phanang was on the top, but you just partly dispelled that myth. Not war it was 25 years ago. Nowhere is eh??

Is that soi 88 street food court part of the village mkt shopping centre ? i had trouble finding food in there, or it could have been blue water shopping centre , luckily they had a big chang beer promo on out the front and there was loads of food stalls, hua hin and cha am get loads of bangkokians at weekends and thai holidays,. i agree about your thoughts on pattaya being party central, and its amazing how many "2 week millionaires" never go anywhere else ever,. Prachuap is nice but very quiet in comparison to HH, glad your enjoying somewhere new richy,. soi bintabhat is a good party place in HH and soi 80,.cheers pal,.

No matter where i go i could never lay on a beach like those extremely skinny tourists (ok they are well fed), too much to look at and, yes the beach is nice and i suppose most of the tourist folk live in cities that are cold at the Moment.
