Cool video man, I'm doing something similar in Vietnam. Keep on showing people that there are alternatives to the 9-5!

This video does something very important for me as an American. There's opportunity, and there's value out there, not just that country but in the world, and even in pockets of America. I sometimes pigeonhole myself to thinking in tunnel vision. Thanks for opening my mind a little bit and seeing the huge opportunity. I haven't seen huge opportunity and value but I haven't really looked hard and in the right places.

wow I'm paying $1500 for one bed room in the bay area California man I'm moving to Thailand tomorrow hell yeah thanks man see you there✌

As of January, 2019 the rent here went up to $107 a month.

When I travel alone. I'm like you. All I care is to have a very clean, quiet place to stay. I'm ok with basic as long as is safe, quiet and clean. I don't like the shower/toilet concept at all. And I would like a small kitchenette. I've seen nice apartments for 200 a month that look like any small 1 bedroom apartment from the US. The only difference is that it's 1300 in the U.S and 200 in Thailand. I wanna stay for 3 months. No more than that.

Livin the life! Don't need much when you have such a great surrounding. Not only the cheap apartment but the food is amazing and usually about $1 for a bowl of street noodles. You should do a series on different street carts! Miss yah bro

I know that one can indeed call these minimalist rooms "apartments, but in fact they are little more than a Motel 6 efficiency or a dorm room with a small efficiency - read counter - called a kitchen. Most who are not simply 20 something and serious about actually relocating an establishing a home think of a more substantial apartment as being something akin to a living room, defined kitchen (not simply a gas burner!), bedroom, second bedroom or office, and maybe some sort of utility room in addition to a defined full bathroom. \ And this is NOT what these videos talking about "apartments cheap" are talking about!

I know why you woke up at 11:30. I miss Chiang Mai. So many great bars...

How is the renting process? How much you pay up front? Contract length? Thinking about making the move

I cannot live there without a kitchen. The kitchen is my living space. I am italian.

I would say this is a hotel style room and not apartment. No kitchen at all, even the most basic setup. Hardly would call this room an apartment :)

In apartment living there, landlords are allowed to charge you almost double what the actual electric bill is. I know it happened to me. Best bet is to rent a house, the landlord gives you the actual electric bill and you pay it yourself at a 7-11.

love that apartment for its kind of, like, simple~ feel. like even the view... not all that great. but it's got that cinematic feel you get from like, pen-ek ratanaruang films. or maybe even that kind of wong kar wai's Chungking Express kind of mood.

I'm impressed with that area you showed. Looks fairly clean and orderly (I've been to thailand).

OMG, $80 a month. That's is extremely cheap.

heyy may i ask the location of this place? I am looking for a place to rent starting next month in Bangkok... so.... it would be really helpful... thank youu

I love it am just coming to cozy when things open back up this is all I need

For everyone thinking no kitchen is a big deal, it really isn't. You can eat street food for about the same price as cooking in Thailand. There is no reason you cant buy a cooktop, rice cooker, electric tea kettle and a little folding table. When you can squeak by on hundreds of dollars a month and never have to go to a job small sacrifices will become insignificant. Spending your days at a park or a beach or with a lady friend or getting massages is what you should consider. The room is just a place to sleep, shower and get out of the rain.

Amazing. Tell me about your background with digital design and elaborate on what you do and how you got the job. I'd like to pay 80 a month and do artsy stuff.

That's amazing! If you wanted to cook, you could. I did with a hot plate. Worked out fine. Also had a toaster oven that would bake anything. Nice, inexpensive place to crash. Dude's got it going on.

It's very basic, but you pay for what you get and it is well worth $80. If you are willing to pay about $150 a month you should check out PP Condos they have modern rooms with partitioned off areas for bed so it doesn't seem like a studio, and an area with a sofa and flat screen tv and also a full modern kitchen, some of them are really smart for the money and they do have smaller rooms for similar money to what you pay now.

Oh this is in my neighborhood. I have a German friend that lives at that apartment building. I live at the Huay Kaew Residence over by KSK. I love to eat at Croco's pizza regularly. Best pizza in Chiang Mai. My Studio is about 50 sq ft bigger with a balcony, microwave and coffee maker, plus we have a pool, but I also pay 5,000 baht (about $145 USD). 4,000 baht rent plus 300 for internet and usually about 700 more in electric. I have a 1 year Visa and can honestly say that I love Thailand. Seriously considering a retirement Visa when I'm old enough.

fucking amazing place for 80 bucks

I love the shower / bathroom set up. it's a little strange at first but cleaning the bathroom in a BREEZE. I scrub everything down in one go, (toilet, sink, walls and floor) and then use the shower nozzle to rise.

Nice video - I actually followed the video here from StickBoy to give you some comment love ^_^ Thailand is a sweet place to live, having lived here for nearly 4 years now in BKK Keep loving it, mate

I'm thinking of leaving the States and moving out to Thailand. what items do you recommend as far as electronics, power sources etc

Thanks for sharing, I like your videos

This is not an apartment but rather an hotel room. However @ $80 per month it's great value and looks safe and clean. One can eat 3 meals per day in Thai restaurants for less than $10 so a kitchen is not necessary unless one is into home cooking. Here in Europe a Thai Foot Massage is €60 per hour (c. 2000 Baht), in Thailand it's 200 Baht. Corona Virus has caused Thailand to close down to tourists which has put millions of Thais out of work. Hopefully there will be an anti-dote in the Spring. Thailand Abu. โชคดีประเทศไทย Good luck Thailand!

Gotta love those kitchen sink sprayers in the bathrooms in Thailand. Nothing fancy, but gets the job done.

0:58 Hey guy waving!

Bro, it is 2020 i see places that r insane with like pools, gyms and even breakfast included on airbnb for like 150-300 dollars per month. It is unbelievable!!!

Location and which building address.

That looks like a great space especially for the price. Clean, modern and bright. A very good find! Enjoy!!!

thanks for sharing info, well it is so cheap

WTF? A graphic designer that get's paid at least $80 a month?! That's strange...

I wonder if its still possible to find 80usd rent per month in Chiang Mai nowadays...

Great stuff Pat!

Thanks for this video. It looks great there! Can you tell me what visas are required to live/rent an apartment in Thailand?

yep $80 Apartment and the rest go to massages happy endings lol 5555

Only $80 a month?! And here I thought I was getting it cheap when I was in Bangkok & Phuket for $25 a DAY!!! I will definitely be looking for an apartment on my next trip!!!! Thanks for the video!

Where is your Laundry Area located?

Great Video Bro, there are so many questions I have personally. Beside your Complete Guide for Cheap Apartments, I was thinking about bringing up the idea for you to put out a newsletter, and for maybe a couple bucks a month, guys like me who are considering moving to Thailand might really need and enjoy? Perhaps, you are not interested in doing that but it would be a valuable asset to have before moving, and even an edition for people who already live there could benefit from your experiences and insights? Just a thought, anyway, I wish you great fun and much happiness.

Thank you for the tour and information on inexpensive apartments! Travel safe.

thats amazing. ive been highly considering moving to thailand and this video pushed me a bit further to go:)

Even as an asian i must admit that 80$ is damn cheap for that kinda apartment

No balcony though .That would be a deal breaker for me .That was 4 years ago ,but rents have gone down since then if anything but the Baht has got stronger .I was renting a similar place around the same time but 10 km out of town in Sansai (N.E. of the old City ) for B2,000 a month with balcony .

I hope those pups are healthy.

Bro, get a little portable stove and you're set. $80 a month it's too good.

I'm a 40 year old Canadian and I want to start living in Thailand for 6 months out of the year, snowbirding you could say, any advice for a fella who wants to live there for half the year and volunteer? Thank you kindly :)

Thailand where?

I loved it already thanks for sharing keep up a good work

3K Baht with AC, great deal on your crib bro! Top floor uses a lot more energy units but is quieter. Nice manager lady. Chok dii khrup!

Hey Pat! So happy that I stumbled across your channel. Good stuff! Subscribed! I am in the process of liquidating my possessions and start my own personal journey. I'll check out Chiang Mai in the next few months! Hope to catch up. Keep up the great videos!

Hi, your $80.00 a month, does it include electricity ?

Ow, my heart. Missing CM so hard after this video. We lived here for 6 months and are aching to go back after our Seattle money stop where a 423sq apartment costs us $1200 a month! Any plans to go back there as well?

Awesome video man. Subscribed. Where are you exactly in Thailand? I really liked Phuket when I visited.

Just found your channel, love the content so far! I'm planning a long-term solo vagabond starting this summer. This definitely seems like the way to go, not only is renting an apt usually way cheaper than hostels, but you have your own living space which I'm sure is nice. 2 questions: Do you usually live under the 3 month tourist visa in most places, or do you push for a visitor visa or some other kind? Second, have you ever dabbled with housesitting? This seems like the way to go in more expensive countries, eliminating shelter expenses from the budget.

awesome tour man, i like your image on your website where you are on the street with other motorbikes!

LOVED YOUR VIDEO

I’m looking to move there in the next 6 months! Looking for some place under $100 furnished.

Very nice, if you stick to a strict style and format of your own and do food and restaurant vlogs you'll see your subscribers skyrocket!

Where is that place located i am moving to Thailand soon and I need a place to live

How much per unit of electricity? Some places can charge as much as 10 to 12B per unit it can add up if you use the aircon allot. I pay 7B, an average in my area seems to be between 7 and 9, I end up paying about 30 to 45 dollars per month.

Great work...keep it up. If you can, show us some more cheap places to stay.

I like how you say being a "digital nomad" but completely disregard mentioning Wifi, Internet speed or whatsoever in your apartment.

I have an apartment in Bangkok (which I don’t live in) and its my mom rents it to people for 30k Baht a month (about 1k usd) and it is only a little bit bigger than this.

Love your video

What is the address of this apartment building? What is its name? Do you have to sign a lease? How long is the lease? How long can an American like me live in Thailand? How to extend a visa?

This is great to see! What are some apps/sites you go to when apartment hunting in another country? Any to stay away from?

Thailand's great. Love the freedom there.

Hey man, what model tripod do you use? Caught a glimpse of it in the mirror. Inspirational stuff btw. Just binged watched all your vids lol

What kind of videos can I expect from Thailand, when are you going to hitchhike again?

Nice video bro!

2:46 Pretty crappy view..I was able renting a mobile home for 250$ in FL not so far from beach with rather better outer view. Why don't you live someplace close to beach?

HELLO, NICE $80 DOLARES MENSUALES A MONTH I WOULD'VE TO GO TO THAILAND I LOVE YOUR VIDIO I LEARN A LOT

Where is apartment exactly? Electric, water, Included? Great rate! Deposit? I assume this is a predominantly Thai neighborhood, not many foreigners. 👍🇨🇷

Like bathrooms where you can go to the toilet, brush your teeth and shower at the same time :)

We love you

I want to move there . Would you be willing to advise the most safe and cheapestt place to live?

I'll be there next month and moving there by august. I love Chiang Mai!

Hi, what would utilities cost PM? would u know approximately cost of room with direct internet straight to room?

Does your rent of $80 include utilities and wifi?

I was budgeting for around $250 a month, this has made me reconsider!

Twlling us the prices, that is so helpful, thank you !

bro I think I stayed in the exact same room after you left, 2nd room from the emergency stairs on the right side facing the exit. I was there in 2017 summer. This place was amazing I miss Thailand. Are you still in Thailand?

Nice work brother

Not to bad at all. My first apartment was that size and i paid $550 a month about 12 years ago. Im sure its alot more nowadays

Yes! please, show us more places, pkease. We will keep following you

I just saw your video. It's nice. A friend of mine Tony retired in changmi. Hope someday we can catch up. Till then. Bye

The background music is so good.

If your going there what is the preferred language to learn, Mandarin?

Excellent video

First time watcher, subscribed, even opted for notifications... Lol Very impressive! I've been planning my trip to Thailand for about 3 months and I am getting nowhere (not that bad, but that good). If you get time, I'd love to interrogate you... Lol **APPLAUSE**

Is it Bangkok? What neighborhood? How did u find this apartment? English speaking newspaper ? Thank you

That sucks that you don't get free motorbike parking, wifi, and a balcony to dry your clothes. In Phnom Penh, Cambodia a beautiful fully furnished apartment with free parking, wifi, and a balcony is $115/month.

I'm going to retire in about a year and will be spending winters in SE Asia.. I've been to Phuket a couple times and liked it, but the visa requirements seem like they'd be a pain... I think I'll use Cambodia as my home base for the easy visa, then just fly to Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Laos, etc..thanks for the video....I'll need to check out your other videos...

Could someone please provide me with advice on how simple or hard it may be to become a teacher in Thailand and what type of certifications I may need. I do have my degree. Working on my Master’s

How much is electricity and internet?
