Overpriced. At the end of the day it's a beach. Tons of beaches worldwide. Sure sub 2500 is still a bargain for a paradise. But I don't like overpaying. A taco for 7$ on an island, when it's almost like street food is just the locals price gouging foriegners But to each their own, love ur channel and content anyway Anyway my q is, what are good sites or app for finding short them accommodation month to month in kuala lampoor malaysia besides airbnb. Stuff only the locals know

You can get almost everything for much less than in that video if you‘re not after the fancy vegan/freelancer/touristy places. For example, the average price for a coconut if you buy it on a market or a regular place would be around 40-50 Baht, which is ~$1.30, so almost half as much as he‘s paying. You can pretty much decide what your priorities are and then get the same kind of experience in different price levels
@JooseTheNomad 2 ай бұрын
@@TheRealNik. Well it's probably nicer to sit down in a nice beach bar to relax and sip a coconut while watching sunset than in the market😄 But you're right!
@TheRealNik. 2 ай бұрын
@@JooseTheNomad Of course it is, therefore I‘m not saying it‘s not worth it, but just that it’s a matter of personal priorities. If you‘d, for example, bring a beer from 7-11 to the beach instead of getting it on the bar, you‘d easily save 50%+. It‘s all a matter of convenience and the budget you travel on. Enjoyed your video, just wanted to add this for people who might got surprised by the high cost and encourage them that it’s also possible in a different way :)

I want to start working outside of europe but my job is extremely dependent on online meetings (preferably not in coworking spaces or cafes).

In your experience, is it durable to live in any of these locations and have a job with alot of online meetings? ☺
@JooseTheNomad 2 ай бұрын
Yeah it's possible for sure! I'd say Thailand has the most fast and reliable wifi but also in Bali it works well enough to not really have problems :) I'd not recommend Philippines tho as on the islands the wifi might be a problem for lots of meetings.
