Just dropped a new video ranting about something that drives me mad during Thailand's high season. After 10 years living here, I'm sharing: - Why Western tourists can't help but obsess over their home country's politics, even on holiday - The stark reality of Western "democracy" vs actual quality of life in places like Thailand - Why I left the UK's broken system behind and never looked back It's not your typical expat video - just me venting about how frustrating it is watching tourists arrive here completely programmed by their media back home, unable to see how their precious "democratic" systems are actually designed to keep them divided and miserable. To those thinking about making the leap abroad... Don't let brainwashed friends and family who've never done it talk you out of it. The freedom and happiness you'll find here is real, despite what Western media wants you to believe. Who else has noticed this political obsession from tourists? Or made the move and realised how much BS you were fed back home? Let's discuss!

"I want to spend more time with my family" "I need to focus on my relationships" "I can't pursue that because of my kids" Know what these really are? Excuses. And painful ones at that. Because here's the thing nobody talks about... Using your relationships as an excuse not to build something meaningful doesn't actually make you a better partner, friend, or parent. It makes you a frustrated one. Think about it... What message are you actually sending to your kids when you say "I had a dream once, but then you came along"? What example are you setting when you use them as an excuse not to chase bigger and better things? Here's what I've learned from getting to know many successful nomad families is that... You don't have to choose. The whole "either be successful OR be a good parent/partner" thing? It's bullshit. The best parents, partners, and friends I know are the ones building something they're proud of. Why? Because they're showing their kids, partners, and friends what it looks like to be fully alive. What it looks like to chase what matters. What it looks like to build something meaningful. What example do you want to set?
