Living the Good Life Outside of Pattaya - Cost of Apartments Jomtien and Naklua Beaches

Membership site now open: http://retirecheap.tv/members
I think many of people are kind of embarrassed when meeting strangers or telling relatives about living in or around Pattaya. But there are some very nice places around Pattaya that aren't like living in a blender on high speed like it is in Pattaya.
Naklua
Naklua, situated north of Pattaya, is still very much the old fishing village, with traditional wooden houses and of minor touristic significance except for its famous weekend market.
Now there are some nice hotels and guest houses that can be found there.
What many tourists wrongly denote as Naklua, is actually just the northern part of Pattaya along Pattaya-Naklua Road (northern extension of Pattaya 2nd road, north of the Dolphin Roundabout), which actually merges with Naklua.
Jomtien
Most tourist brochures describe Jomtien - with its six-kilometer-long stretch of sandy beach, as a kind of Pattaya's little brother, with a bit less of everything that might be "over-the-top" in Pattaya: less nightlife, less noise, less traffic etc. Although Jomtien Beach, which has become popular especially with family vacationers and Thai tourists from Bangkok, doesn't really resemble what tourists might expect from a tropical beach, Jomtien offers a much more relaxed environment for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying various beach activities, than Pattaya's over crowded main beach. The nightlife at Jomtien is much more relaxed and laid-back.

Things to Do in Chiang Mai - Royal Flora Exhibition

Membership site now open: http://retirecheap.tv/members   When living in Thailand there are always events and gatherings to go to because Thai culture is very sociable. Many events will have the same food, products or music every time. But not the Royal Flora Horticultural Exhibition. The last time I attended this event was back in 2006. This exhibition is a tribute to a hard working King. For decades since his ascension to the throne, no terrain has been insurmountable or remote for His Majesty who visited villages in all corners of the Kingdom to learn first-hand the problems and challenges the Thai people were facing.
Over the years the King initiated more than 2,000 development and agricultural projects aimed at alleviating the hardships of the rural poor throughout the Kingdom. His Majesty coined the term "sufficiency economy" based on his philosophy of self-reliance through the rational use of environmental and natural resources and the use of simple and effective techniques which the Thai people can adopt in their daily lives.
For his role in the advancement of Thai agriculture, the Royal Flora Ratchaphruek 2006 was conceived as a tribute to His Majesty. Here is a look at the 2011 event.

Cost of Rental Chiang Mai - Small Studio Apartment $66 a Month

Membership site now open: http://retirecheap.tv/members    Say you have a monthly income of only about $500 a month. You have in the calculations in our Retirement Budget Calculator on our website that gives you about 5000 Baht to spend every month on rent. But if you could get a place to stay for only $66 a month (2000 Baht) then you are way ahead of the game and have more money to spend on other things. Hmmm..... can you think of anything?! Anyway, check out this little apartment and compare it to something back home for that amount. Opps, forgot, you can't! Interested in this building??

Cost of Buying a Used Motorcycle at Thai Prices -- Chiang Mai

Membership site now open: http://retirecheap.tv/members  There are many things to see and do around Thailand. I f you decide to stay a while or retire in Thailand then you should purchase your own transportation. Transportation is inexpensive. You can even own a great little motorcycle that will get you around town for $500. Normally I would let a Thai negotiate the price for me so I wouldn't get a higher price which could happen some times. But if you don't have a Thai that could accompany you, how can you get the same price as a Thai person? If you live in Chiang Mai, here's how!
Please become a friend or subscribe to this channel and you if can, link back to my website I'd appreciate it. For more videos, books on retiring abroad, personal phone consultations and a Retirement Budget Calculator go check out http://retirecheap.asia

JC's Day Trip Cruising the 100 km Samoeng Loop, Thailand

Membership site now open: http://retirecheap.tv/members  One of the most fun outdoor activities in northern Thailand is cruising around the country roads that wind through the hills around Chiang Mai. And people who like day trips from Chiang Mai will be pleased to know there is one cool option. You can take your own bike or rent a bike and do it yourself on this beautiful 90km all day experience that takes you through excellent mountain views, waterfalls, beautiful gardens, adventure activities, elephant camps, orchid and butterfly farms and places to eat.
Getting away from Chiang Mai's hectic, polluted and slightly dangerous driving conditions is great. Traffic slows to a trickle as the scenery changes from businesses into the lush foothills and eventually deep into the mountainous North Country. This is a gorgeous journey, especially for motorcyclists.
Conditions on the countryside roads are surprisingly good. There are thousands of kilometers of paved and good dirt roads crisscrossing the mountains between Chiang Mai and the Burmese border. You could sleep in guesthouses or camp and have weeks of exploration, giving you an excellent chance to interact with the Thai locals. But for people who do not have the time to do that, the Samoeng Loop is a great option.
Follow along with me for the day and enjoy our journey!
