today we are flying to Thailand for the second time this year and in this
video I'm going to tell you everything you need to know about flying to Thailand with
visas all that stuff we actually have three flights to get there but I'm so
excited we've missed the foods in Thailand so so badly ah okay and we're going to show
you in this video I'm so excited we've just got to get these three flights so let's go
just arrived in Oman but we're heading straight onto our boat to Phuket Thailand
here we go [Music] so we have just arrived in Thailand we've collected our bags and it was
so quick getting through it Phuket international airport it's a really small airport actually and
it's so much easier than when we came back in February of this year and we're probably
here at like at least an hour trying to get through weren't we and that was just
because of covered restrictions now there's nothing right now let's head to our hotel
also there's SIM cards you can get here but I've already got my Nomad esim and that was like only
15 pounds or something and I can already get data straight away from the plane which was awesome
so we are staying in Patong and there's three ways you can get there you can get there via
a taxi which is 800 Baht a mini bus which is what we're doing for 180 bar each or the
public bus which is 100 baht we don't want to wait too long for the public bus so we're going
for the Mini Bus which is only 180 bar which is really good much cheaper than the taxi so
let's go to Paton and hopefully because we're pretty tired also they've got these automatic
cleaners look how cool that is very futuristic it's like Japanese or Singapore it's awesome
so we have just checked into our hotel we are fully cleaned and
feel so much better from those three flights that we took and
and so hungry and I'm ready for the Thai food let's go I didn't mention but at the airport
I withdrew money from an ATM and that cost 220 baht to withdraw the money and from any ATM in
the whole Thailand it always costs 220 Baht also this room only costs 15 pounds a night which is
an incredible deal I mean it feels like a proper big hotel and the bed is massive yeah here we go
I want to talk to you about something very useful which I get asked about a lot and it's about your
phone it's called an esim I'm currently using an e-sim here in Thailand with a service called
Nomad and honestly it works so well instead of having to buy SIM card back at the airport
I downloaded my Nomad e-sim before I traveled and was connected the moment I stepped off the
plane and Nomad the service that has made this possible have kindly partnered with me on this
video for those of you who don't know an esim is a digital SIM card and it's loaded onto your
phone through a mobile app just make sure your phone is eating ready unlike a regular physical
SIM card Nomad esim Works instantly and Nomad is a global mobile app with e-sim data plans in
over 100 countries giving you fast data speeds and in case you were wondering I still keep my
UK number while the e-sim works so things like WhatsApp and text work as normal so I can still
be connected whilst I'm abroad also if you top up data on Nomad it's usually cheaper than buying a
new esin so if you run out of data no worries you can easily top up I will leave links down
in the description to download The Nomad app as it's available on IOS and Android a little bonus
if you want to use my referral code Joel 94 MB you get three dollars off your first esim with
Nomad let's head off and get some food it's so good to be back on the road in Phuket or
Patong where we first started our trip last time it is quite warm but not as warm as when
we left Thailand in April earlier this year it was so hot then it feels really nice but
it still is humid yeah we're gonna have some lunch and then we're gonna head to the beach
so there is when they pull foreigners over for being on a scooter and just try and find them
um but you just have to avoid them it's just a scam here and yeah
yeah try and avoid the main street in Phuket
so we've just come to this restaurant and of course we
've got a month I'm so excited we actually came to this very restaurant when we were
back in Thailand and yeah it was good then and it's going to be good now I can't wait guys we
have just got our fresh coconut and hmm it's so fresh you have to have them every month here we
are we've got the main Curry and it smells amazing like I just want to dive into it
flavors I Can't Describe I can't describe it it's just so good right I'm gonna let
Amelia dig in and we're just going to enjoy this meal the best meal I've ever had is
even better than I remember I am living my best life good this is what we want
[Music] so we just went into 7-Eleven and got these ice drinks I got an iced cappuccino as
I always used to do and I got a nice poker and it only cost 80P or 35 Baht and it's just amazing how
good value you can get stuff in there honestly if you're coming to Thailand 7-Eleven is your little
gem it's got so much stuff you can just snack on and drink we are on the beach in Thailand it
feels amazing the sand is so soft I don't know why but just Thailand has some of the best sand
and beaches and oh it's just beautiful look at this place even though this is really built up
and stuff it doesn't mean the beaches aren't just still stunning compared to the last time there is
so much more going on than Muay Thai fights are happening they're all advertising them there's
so many jet skis there's the beach is just really busy and you get lots of more hasslas and stuff
just because you know it's full of tourists and it's yeah much busier than when we were
here back in February earlier this year so guys we've been on the beach and this guy came up to
me and wanted to give me some sunglasses and these are actually a really good set of sunglasses but
they knew they don't scratch or anything they've got I think they've got proper UV I'm not 100 sure
but he wanted 1800 Baht for them and I was like I know I can get them so much cheaper somewhere
else so I kept bargaining and I got them for only 300 Baht that shows you how inflated the
prices are around here obviously he wouldn't have sold it to me if he wasn't making a profit
because obviously there's no point so yeah just something to take into account make sure you're
bargain especially for like these sellers on the beach big first price never ever take first
price 1800 to 300 Baht that is crazy I couldn't believe he even took the deal because I knew I
could get them cheaper somewhere else so yeah there you go bargain in Thailand car behind you
what's that doing here it's the beach I just wanted to talk to you about the visas to get
into Thailand because of the 1st of October 2022 and there's actually a 45-day Visa and
this 45 day Visa is free for a lot of countries and it ends on the 31st of March so if you come
into Thailand now you get 45 days for free and also you can still extend it for another
30 days which is awesome so if you're looking to come to Thailand you should come now so Thailand
is now fully open there are no restrictions we got through security and everything in Phuket
so fast and so Thailand is fully open guys this place is now bustling there's so much on and I
just recommend coming it's awesome let's go in the sea honestly we were just in turkey
and the water here is so much warmer it's so nice isn't it ah it's so nice like a little bar it is
like a bath and you can swim in the evening or at night and you still don't get chilly
so we just watched the most incredible Sunset and we were just taking it all in and honestly we are
so happy to be back like you have no idea how much we've missed it here but now we're gonna go out
and have some dinner and just have a look around the town going down Bangla Road show you what
Bangla roads like right now in 2022 nearly 23 so yeah let's go here we are our first Pad Thai back
in Thailand I'm so excited get the chili on there I can't wait to dig into this Chopsticks let's go
guys this pad's pie is amazing like like sold so good I've missed it so much I'm just gonna dig it
so that is where they're advertising the Muay Thai fights which weren't on
last time because of covid back in February but yeah he's making some
black noises isn't he everything's going off the atmosphere here in Phuket is like it's
electric it's just so many times more than yes so much more going on Roddy
you got ready this is this is heaven I've been waiting for this for so long you did
every other country you went to you were like I'm the one my Roxy in Thailand Max I can't pick it up
it's the Roddy is it oh
sticky honestly I think this is my favorite dessert in the world I love
rice and with some mango mangoes are so good in Thailand this is condensed milk
and you basically pour it over the rice on the mango but it tastes quite sweet
honestly you've got to try it's the best thing ever this is 100. highly highly
so I don't know if you know but weed is now legal here in Thailand so there's a lot of weed shops
and stuff there's nothing like this here before just like six months ago yeah out of nowhere so
if you don't know we're on Bangla Road and this is like the big party uh Street here in Phuket
home and if you want a night out this is the place to come we would came out
before and it's so good I mean it's only nine o'clock and it is mass there already
yeah big night ahead probably not for us though we're jet lagged we're so jet-laged
we are so so pleased to be back in Thailand but we are quite tired because we've been on
like three flights in the last 24 hours but the energy I just I'm quite awake
