My name is Cal.
I’ve been living in Bangkok, Thailand since 2015.
This channel provides clear, practical information for travelers and expats — covering topics like scams, safety, transportation, costs of living, entry rules, real time news, and everyday life in Thailand.
The goal is simple: help you avoid common mistakes and understand what it’s really like to travel, live, or spend extended time in Thailand.
If you have questions or want a specific topic covered, feel free to leave a comment.

I get lot of questions and messages, and unfortunately I simply can't answer them all as it would quite literally take up my whole day.
So please ask here and I will add it to the next Q&A.

My most recent Q&A video was removed by Youtube, and I've had a few questions about it...
So in case you're wondering, here's why.
In the video, I discuss the Thailand Digital Arrival Card, and I showed a screen recording of a sped up walk-through of the process.
Apparently Youtube's AI content moderation didn't like that I added a random name (John Smith) and feels that I am doxxing my invented example.
It's currently under review from an appeal and should be back up in a day or so.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

The leaders of Thailand and Cambodia have agreed to an immediate and unconditional ceasefire to end the border conflict after talks in Malaysia. This is very positive news.
