Are there a lot of Christian churches there? Christ is what Christmas is all about.✝️
I'm gonna be in Thailand for a month, starting in Bangkok then, three days in Chiang Mai before heading on to some of the Northern Thai places I have never been to before, places you (and other vloggers) have shown me. I'm looking forward to my favorite Sushi place (Mushashi) and a French Cafe (Chenguette) that does great food. Not very Thai, but plenty of time for that!
Looks like you lovin' it mate.
Marriott is about £125 a night in February…oh well, back to reality – that pays for half a months rent for me in Hua Hin!!!
Can you tell how do you deal with the burning season?
I love tourists sayin there are tourists everywhere 😀 love <3
Is there any chance that to many westerners will end up there, and they will have to stop foreigners coming.
Hi Wayne, nice to see you back doing the walk-about in Chiang Mia! Your recent series was so amazing, so many beautiful places in Northern Thailand! Thanks for taking us along! I'm afraid the tourism boom is for real, and is probably there to stay as a lot of people, especially those of us in the western countries who have had enough of the decline in their standard of living, especially since everything continues to cost more and more seemly every day! Love your channel! It's a great source of relief and enjoyment for me! Your vlogs are the best! Have a Merry Christmas, maybe find yourself a ms. Claus to give you a special gift? haha Take it easy man!
"My little food spots full of tourists!" "Give my little food temple back!"😊 Our Of The Track Galavanting Wonderous Wayne…🕶🏍🦾🪖🏴🎄🇬🇧
and laugh at start of video are beautiful…..😊
Thanks for showing where it can get a bit lively,….
And especially the best keeebbaaabb shop in town 🙂👍
It was definitely your best series, if the places you visit have that "Wow Aura " it makes the Vlog so much more enjoyable, as you can relax and know the people and scenery will do the work for you. On the other hand its "Hard Yakka" getting something to "Pop" when there isn't much of a atmosphere/vibe or stunning scenery. Wayne you are getting better as you progress, so well done, i would rather watch you than the other big vloggers (millions of Subs) they earn big bucks and put out very few videos, personal opinion.
Boy, work on your plebeian accent!
Looking good Wayne nice smile on your face. Great roads trip saw places that I pass trough but never have stopped so thanks for that. If Christmas is your bag have a great one and enjoy festive season. Had to freeze when I heard you say 2k for a hand massage lol.
He’s back in town 🤩 – the resurfacing of the road looks good , it takes forever in the west to even get something like that even started – it looks busy – Have you noticed any of your everyday pricing of stuff etc has increased in the last few months ?
Thanks WW 🎅👍
I will be there for New Year look forward to this. In Pai for Christmas.
Merry Christmas to ya Mate from Florida ! Enjoy ! S̄uk̄hs̄ạnt̒ wạn khris̄t̒mās̄ ! [ สุขสันต์วันคริสต์มาส ]
Hi Wayne I asked about a scooter you replied I'm staying at the Marriott if you want to look around 😂😂 Dennis
Don't snitch on your buddies 😂😂😂
"Not bad foot massage 600 bath" oh the irony 😂😂😂
I really enjoyed the trip mate glad to see your back in chang mai at least I got my screen saver thanks for that mate it looks awesome can't wait for the next vlog keep them coming mate they make my day🇬🇧👍👍
Well I’m on my way sat night 😂
Love the vid Wayne are you intending to do any reviews on affordable hotels thanks mate
Bet you glad to be home mate for Xmas 😊
It’nit
I have left Chiang Mai for greener(?) pastures. But leave the gate open just in case. Currently in Australia for the holidays. Will seek a new abode when I return.
It was also time for new asphalt, hoping to completely cover the entire square, get new asphalt
Such a pleasure to watch and to listen to your videos !!!!! Keep on walking Wayne !!!
I was there 9 years ago it has changed a lot man. Be back next year cant wait….liking your vids mate
Nice to get back "home" after your road trip. Have a good week & happy holidays, bruv. Cheers & safe travels! 👍
Damn Wayne missed you by one day. It was surreal seeing everything the very next day. Most of the vlog was virtually the same path I took. Excellent buddy
Keep em coming 🙏
10,000 baht a night for the cheapest room at the Marriott there. So not cheap. £230 a night. A little rich for my taste. Happy Christmas Wayne 🎄
Welcome back mate. Chiang Mai is alive and well! I feel a Christmas drink coming on. 🎄
We all know you are on your way to Chonburi mate. I thought i heard those massage girls saying Wayne's back🤣👍
Merry Christmas Wayne. Keep smiling mate 🎉
The repaved roads around the old city are awesome, the suspension on my PCX got a real workout. I hope that they end up doing all of the streets. Good to see you back home, have a good holiday. 🙏🙏
I don't know how much I dropped on Loi Kroh last night, but it doesn't even matter, because I had one hell of a night. 🤣 Yes, Chiang Mai is swarming with tourists and yes, I am part of the problem! Headed out to Phuket in the morning, I'll have to catch up with you next time I'm in town Wayne, still nursing a bit of a hangover. 😇
Love the montage and music interlude. Wish I were there!
Ahh good to see you back in Chiangmai bro. Didn't take you long too get back. I love Chiangmai I have too say.
Will be busy this time of year.
Time for a stroll down Loy kroi rd bru, nip into the shed of shame for a look.
Take it easy bro and merry Christmas to you all the best mate . Stay safe bro stay safe
So good my friend
Bro that that sign at the beginning. It'll be a cold day in hell before I pay 600 baht for a 45 minute foot massage. Looks like a parallel economy is opening up in the tourist ghettoes. Chilling.
Chiang Mai's alive and well mate , ramping up for Christmas. Nice tasteful tour of the bars too mate, well done. Have a lovely Christmas and New Year and mull over what the New Year is to bring for you. Let's hope 2025 brings you plenty of happiness and success with the channel. Cheers Wayne 🤩
