    She Left Florida Alone At Age 60 To Retire In Thailand | Tour Her $700 Luxury Condo in Bangkok

    In this inspiring episode, we meet Valerie, a 60-year-old American retiree from Florida who made the bold decision to start a new chapter in Bangkok, Thailand.

    After raising her children and becoming single, Valerie decided she didn’t want a typical retirement in the USA. instead, she packed her bags and moved to Southeast Asia.

    We start with a tour of her incredible luxury condo, which she rents for just $700 USD per month. You won’t believe the quality of life she gets for this price compared to Florida—high-end finishes, great views, and 5-star facilities.

    Then, we sit down for a heartwarming and honest interview about:

    The Decision: How hard was it to leave her adult children and grandkids behind?

    Safety: What is it like being a single woman living alone in Bangkok?

    Cost of Living: How far does a US pension/savings go in Thailand?

    Loneliness vs. Freedom: Her real experience finding community abroad.

    If you are thinking about retiring in Thailand, especially as a single woman, Valerie’s story is a must-watch!

      1 rooting for you to get your family out soon and man why was I kicking my feet in my bed laughing watching Miss Val she said I don’t need to be sprung but she don’t realize she would have young whipper snapper sprung 🥹

      Glad I stumbled onto this channel! She inspired me to consider Thailand. Love the cameraman’s interjection; unexpected, off the cuff and so original! And he’s funny 😂 Subscribing. Blessings in abundance to you all 🙏🏽

      I love y'all! I've never seen y'all before and I felt a connection throughout this video. Her green shoe stole my attention from the dialogue at first. I love that color green 💚 🟩 but, why wasn't her other shoe green too? 🤔 I actually got triggered by y'all not even asking her about it. 😂 When you shot hoops that's when I relaxed. I like basketball too. Sorry about your injury. I hope you feel better soon. Valerie's twin lived next door to me for 2yrs. I feel like I know her already. I subscribed to your channel and joined the dtv group on Facebook. Idk why 🤷🏽‍♀️ Maybe I was supposed to see this video. Time will tell. Happy New Year!🎉🎊🎊🎊❤😊

      Brother, you did an excellent job with this interview. She is truly inspiring and shared a lot of knowledge about moving to Thailand. I’d definitely follow her if she starts a channel.

    23. @tashas9531 on

      She is stunning! 😍Exactly how I want to be when I'm 60 (financially, spiritually and physically). Thailand is one place I'm considering along with Greece and the Balkans. Awesome interview and loved the camera guy too! Subbed! 💯

      This interview was very refreshing. Yall had me rolling snickering and hitting on Ms. Valerie. Too cute. She really inspired me to pursue my desires of someday moving to Thailand❤️

    26. @KathiKruse666 on

      Very Nice apartment 🙂
      The only reason I would move to Thailand is to be close to the beach!!. y'all.ya got to be able to see the ocean. I wouldn't want to be in Bangkok. I wouldn't be in Pattaya either. But somewhere that's not that crowded with a beach. You got to be by the beach😅

      Dmark, hats off to you for an incredible interview with a fantastic guest in Miss.Val! But the cameraman was extra CRINGE and Distasteful! If he wants to be all in the video and seek attention, then he needs to start his own channel. His input wasn't needed, you're doing a terrific job as it is. Try not to let this happen again.

      This has been one of my favourite videos, Valerie has an amazing spirit and she dropped some great jewels. She even had them Young Lions trying to apply pressure to the Queen😂

      Where at in the US can you see a black woman and man, walking into a brand new, state of the art, high rise building, without some random racist running up on them, questioning them, the what's, & why's are they there, calling law enforcement on them to have them removed, despite explaining your giving a guest a tour of your soon to be home. ..the fact that they are walking through-out this beautiful building without being harassed by white folks, is reason enough in itself to move there!!!
