Welcome to Hat Yai, the vibrant heart of Southern Thailand! In today’s vlog, we’re diving straight into the buzzing energy of the South. From the legendary expat bars on Thumnoonvithi Road to the glowing neon of the local night markets, Hat Yai offers a unique atmosphere that feels like a blend of Thai culture and Malaysian influence.
What’s Inside This Tour:
The "Farang" Bar Scene: We check out the most popular spots for expats, including the famous Leo Bar.
Night Market Delights: Street food tour featuring 80 THB chicken and rice (don't forget the egg!) and 60 THB kebabs.

![Chiang Mai NOW: What’s Really Happening? [News Update]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fLloGJLYdsk/mqdefault.jpg "Chiang Mai NOW: What’s Really Happening? [News Update]
Back in Chiang Mai! Join me for a walk around the Old City, Chiang Mai Gate and the south side as we catch up on the latest changes, local news and everyday life in Thailand.
In this Chiang Mai walking tour, we check out what’s changed at the moat, including the famous geese that have now been moved to a safer farm. We also discuss the old city walls, recent security concerns, underground electrical work around Nimman, construction, markets, street food and the latest tourist scene.
We’ll grab some food and coffee, catch up with friends, check out the pigeons, explore the streets and take a look at the latest motorbikes—including the green ADV that could be my next ride!
Plus, an honest chat about tourism, rising prices and why Chiang Mai still feels like home.
