Building a home in rural Thailand. I will take you through the journey from start to finish. I am not a professional or builder and will be there to make sure things are done to what our plan is. I have watched countless videos and learned what I can through reading and watching to help me along the way.
I also will be fishing when I have a chance, but until this build is done that's pretty much out of the question. I do have a boat at the Gulf of Thailand and will get back to it when this is done and get back to my love of fishing.

📢 Big update tomorrow!

The ceilings are finally finished and looking amazing, but we've also made a final decision regarding the builder compensation after the roof ended up 40cm shorter than planned.

I'll explain everything in tomorrow's video at 4 PM.

What would YOU do in our situation?

👍 Accept compensation and move on
❤️ Keep pushing for more

"I thought we were making great progress on the Thailand House Build... until I looked up. 🤦‍♂️

The team got a little too excited and started the ceiling before we were actually ready. Tomorrow at 4 PM, you'll see the technical reason why we had to pull it all back down and the 'order of operations' mistake.

Set your reminders! 🔔"

SONGKRAN 2026 IS INSANE! 💦

We just survived the madness in Prakhon Chai and Ban Kruat! We took the truck out and let’s just say... nobody stayed dry. The kids had a blast, but the locals definitely got me good when they saw the camera! 😂

The video drops today at 4Pm Thai time >
Quick poll for those in Thailand right now: Is the water colder in Buri Ram or are we just getting soft? 🧊❄️

Just finished the cement repairs on the window frames, doorframes going in and some roof insulation fixes. Getting it 100% right before the render is stressful! 😅

Big day at the Thailand House Build! ⚡️

The electric team is officially on-site and we’re marking out every single outlet and switch. It’s a lot more stressful than I thought—you really don't realize how many plugs you need until you’re standing in a room with bare walls! 🔌

Also sharing a wall update and a bit of a personal life update in this one.

🎥 New video goes live TOMORROW at 4pm! >
Question for you: If you were building from scratch, what’s the ONE place you’d put an extra outlet that everyone usually forgets? Let me know below! 👇

Housework is at a much slower pace, but I would rather slow and right than fast and wrong like before!

Quick question for you guys: If you were building your dream home in Thailand, what’s the ONE thing you couldn’t live without?👇
