Since there really is no "Yelp" in Thailand, I just wanted to do a quick check-in and mention a little massage place about 50 meters North from Sukhumvit on Soi Thong Lor... just down the Soi from the Thong Lo BTS station.
I do this mainly because most of the 'advertising' of these little shops is done via word-of-mouth. While Yelp, Craigslist, Google ratings, etc DO exist and are used in Thailand - its not as extensive as in the US.
Google's ratings that you will see when you are looing up places on Google Maps is getting used a lot more. When I was recently at a Angel/VC Investment pitch presentation the guys from GoWabi.com presented.
https://www.gowabi.com/en
They are focused on the Health and Beauty vertical. Massage shops are certainly one of those offerings as are "waxing" places. GoWabi app offers coupons as well as lookups of places using geo-location so that is helpful - especially if it's your first time in Bangkok. So, just a quick check-in and shout-out for but CHAYSIRI Massage as well as the GoWabi app: http://www.GoWabi.com
Thanks for watching.
...stay tuned

From our hotel, Hadthong ( http://www.hadthong.com/ ) we walk north along the beach (sort of a boardwalk/sidewalk ) and from there we end up at the base of a great temple:
** Khao Chong Krachok.
More info on that here: http://www.prachuapkhirikhan.org/khao-chong-krachok-prachuap/
and, for more info on Prachuap Khiri Khan (PKK) click here: http://www.prachuapkhirikhan.org/
Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoy.

I just love the HEAT and HUMIDITY that is South East Asia and specifically my permanent home for almost 2 years, Thailand.
Just 2 years ago, I boarded my one-way flight from LAX to BKK. A few days later, Gracie and I were getting off the bus that goes from Bangkok to Hua Hin at the Cha-Am stop and heading to our first AirBnB.
Since then we've lived here, and in Bangkok and traveled to several places here in the Kingdom of Thailand.
Each and Everytime we make our way back to Cha-Am I seem to be more and more content. Walking on this beach just after sunrise continues to be one of the best medicines for my psyche!
During this trip, I find myself getting Extreme enjoyment from walking during the hottest part of the day... for hours.. In about 38°C (100°F) heat and 65%++ humidity.
(as I type this it's 41°!!! and I could feel more "comfortable")
This is the second in what seems to be a series of lengthy "Walk'n'Talk" videos that I like to schedule as a Premier. This allows me to offer a "live stream-like" experience with Live Chat from a produced video.
Hope you enjoy.
Looning forward to sharing more of a life that I label as "Extraordinarily Ordinary".
Live the Dream!!

(PART 2)
Greetings and ALOHA! from Acagay, Jamindan, Capiz on the island of Panay in the Philippines.
Gracie and I are splitting our time between her parents' beautiful farm and our house in the little town of Jamindan. This is the area where Gracie grew up. This particular house was built AFTER Yolanda. This house is VERY well built. Congrete walls and floor and a new metal-framed roof. Truly a "last a long time" kind of farm house.
This is the next installment of my walking and talking this morning.
As mentioned, I had to break up the full video/walk'n'talk into 5 segments so that I could successfuly upload the content.
Hugs from me and Gracie. We're honored that you join us on our jouney, traveling the world and truly Living the Dream!
hugs,
~mikes & Gracie

What started off as just a short morning beach walk, ended up being a bit longer.
SO, I split it in two. Here's the rest of the walk a few more Walk'n'Talk thoughts.
Thanks for watching!

Greetings.
A bit of a tangent from my normal videos of travel, beaches, & gratitude and a bit more "IT" than you might be used to for me.
BUT - for those using the PlayIt Live radio automation software ( https://playitsoftware.com ) and are looking for a way to Remotely Manage as well as allow Remote Voice Tracking over an HTTPS connection, this video walks you through using STUNNEL ( https://stunnel.org ) to encrypt the traffic on 443 (i.e. via https:) and using CERTBOT ( https://certbot.eff.org ) for the SSL cert(s).
PLUS briefly talks about how to auto-update your SSL certs -- a feature of CERTBOT
Here is the command I reference to configure CERTBOT:
# certbot certonly --manual --preferred-challenges dns -d EXAMPLE.COM** --email INFO@EXAMPLE.COM
**replace EXAMPLE.COM with the FQDN of your server (e.g. www.bkk.ai) and
replace INFO@EXAMPLE.COM with your email address (e.g. info@bkk.ai )
PLEASE, let me know if there are any glaring mistakes I should fix OR email me with any questions: info@bkk.fm
All the best,
