so today i'm going to give you a room tour and a facility tour to show you what you
can get for around a thousand dollars a month in bangkok in 2022 let's go
okay it's so hot and humid here i think it was officially today uh or yesterday announced as
the start of summer in thailand and it was 38 degrees and today feels about the same
and it's so hot that my lens keeps fogging as you can see it's so hot my lens is so foggy
oh no today i'm going to give you a tour of where we live in bangkok right now for about a month
now my favorite thing about it is that there's a starbucks literally attached to the bottom of
our building so i don't have to travel that far for coffee anymore so come get a coffee with me
grundy actually venti venti
okay we're here we're on the way to get an espresso yen which is a cold espresso so it's
iced espresso and i just need to find a street vendor i haven't actually explored yet a lot yet
i've been too busy like working and editing and i switched editing software to final
cut pro now from a premiere pro in adobe so i had it took a couple of days to get
used to that but now we're going to go find a coffee hopefully find a local that i can come
to and always get my coffee from it's a rare site in bangkok having a free road to cross
so that's like two days in a row i've missed the nest cafe coffee shop he's always leaving when i
get here so while i'm walking i will tell you that we're going to go home and i'm going to get you
that apartment tour so hang tight and it's coming up a little bit later in the video very shortly
it's going to be how much you can get for i don't remember exactly how much the apartment cost
because we got it on airbnb and we got it at the height of the test and go period of
that was so weird
that was weird anyway i'm not sure how much it would actually cost but i'll tell you how much
it costs now and i'll tell you how much we spent on it a little bit later in the video
okay i wanted to go find a street vendor but i don't have time we have grab
um food at our apartment and have to rush back to eat it and then show you the house so
cafe amazon it is espresso yet i've learnt quite a few things more more and
i've learnt more thai since i've been here but not a lot just midnight
a bit of a walk back home now we're now at the front of the apartment now this is the outside
oh hi there come on in today i'm going to give you a tour of our apartment i'm in bangkok um
it is honestly my favorite place that we've stayed in thailand so far so i'm going to show you what i
like about it and what i don't so let's have a look around and i'll show you what you can get
for this amount per month first of all you walk in and you have a little kitchen at so with thailand
which isn't the same as at home but thailand do you eat out because food is amazing here
and why would you not right and it's often cheaper to eat street food than eating at home something
that this room has that not all rooms have in thailand and that's a cooktop so you do have a
cooktop here you can make things at home if you want to microwave and a little bit of storage in
the kitchen the other thing that i found in this apartment is that there's no way to really hang
your clothes but you do have a washer and a dryer haven't figured out how to get the clothes to dry
yet but you have a little seating area so this is where you can eat sit study work on your computers
like we do two seats not incredibly comfortable i'm not gonna lie um but it does fit well into
the space and you need like to be really spatially aware in apartments that are small but if you do
wanna get some food it's a full-size fridge with a full-sized freezer this is a living room so you
have a little futon um it's a not that comfortable i don't think we've settled much but there is a
little divider in the middle of the room with a lounge somewhere to sit with a big tv internet
what's that true box true box tree box like chromecast no up here you have a couple of looks
for storage as well which i find really handy you can store stuff in there i really like that as
well and then you have where we work so there's a big desk here in front of the city skyline
basically and then we just sit here work on the desk you've got some storage in there too so
okay so i would say this is a studio room but it's actually classified as a one bedroom
and i think a lot of the ones in thailand uh call themselves that because they have this divider now
let me show you it because it's pretty cool i like this one it kind of or it doesn't sound through
things but you can have two separate rooms of the apartment which i think is awesome
to the bedroom this is the bed now we've already been here a week so it's not made
properly because i don't know how to do that um but you have the bed it's a massive bed king
king i'll take you over to my favorite part of the apartment over here i like sitting here as
you can see my laptop's here i like sitting here and doing some editing or emails or something
while i'm looking at this amazing view can you see yeah
that is amazing but out there is icon siam you can see it from here you can see the lavue the
sky bar from the hangover as well the amara hotel which is pretty famous you can see there and it
gives you like a look right down on sort of papong area as well let's have a look at the bathroom so
this area is like a little dresser which i really like because it gives you somewhere to put it now
from here on i'm not a fan of the storage as much but you have a place to get ready which is really
really good you've got these to store things as well perfumes and decor and stuff so this is the
bathroom there's not much space in here there's not much storage on the actual tabletop which
again i've seen um in quite a few of the places in thailand um they just have a tablet which is fine
we just have to store your stuff above then you have your shower behind here you have your shower
so the shower has a rainfall here if you'd like to use that it's a really big shower i actually enjoy
going in there it doesn't feel like you're in like a cramped little box nice and modern new i like it
okay so that was our apartment i really like it it's a really enjoyable place to stay you know
it's really nice and modern i enjoy the location so far but i have so much left of bangkok to see
so if you thought that the apartment was the best part it's pretty great but the best part is the
amenities and upstairs with the pool the gym and everything up there the pool is what was like yep
i'm going there and i've been looking forward to it for a very long time so let me go and show you
what all the fuss is about okay coming straight out of the elevator and that's what you see
so over here is a uh gym it's two story you've got all your cardio machines sort of downstairs
and a couple of bit of weights training upstairs really good setup it's one of the best hotel gyms
that i have seen and then there's a place to sit over here i think i've called it like a social
place to sit and you have a big table over this way that you can use to sit at or for whatever
you like if you come this way there's like a massive piano that you can use and there's amazing
place with chairs they've got the shade blinders down at the moment but the view is almost 360.
and it is absolutely incredible really nice seating areas so you have some spots in there
for you to sit down the most amazing view ever so you can sit on those you can use them let
me show you the best part which is the pool and the onsen let me show you we have this amazing
rooftop pool with two onsens stunning if you can see so nice up here it's pretty much 360 views
but if you look out here you can see the whole entire city we're super high out
like 50 floors or 49 floors and you can see our concealm you can see what else australia
limpini lumpini parks down there yep pat pong you can see from up here as well okay i'm gonna
get ready for a swim but in the meantime you check out the clip of this amazing rooftop
okay so that's the rooftop on where we're staying which i think is the highlight of this entire
stay so in the samyang area which is sort of lit limpini park siloam patpong that kind of general
area we had a look around what michael did to be up to be completely honest with you i'm kind of
still learning the maps and where we are i've never been to thailand before if you've watched
my videos i'm very new to here and learning but i love learning about where things are in the
areas and things like that so i'm still learning but that's where we are at the moment for the next
month or so if you have any recommendations of where to go make sure to leave them in
the comments so what you get here is not only the amazing facilities in the room but is 24 7
securities you get the gym pool obviously the onsen sauna and just a all around in general
beautiful place to say i'm super impressed with it and honestly i don't know if i want to move to a
different place because i like it so much i hope you like seeing where we're staying at the moment
if you have any suggestions like i said for us to say in the future leave them down below we do
need to find another place but we're still working out what we're doing with our plan so again tell
me down below if you have any suggestions of what we should do or which area we should stay in make
sure you like and subscribe that would really help me out make sure you check out this video up here
it's another really nice place in thailand and i'll see you in the next one bye bye bye
