Moving to Thailand can be a disorienting, discombobulating experience, even if you're on your own. Now imagine doing it with 9 hours to prepare. That's what Vic Levitin and his family did, but the unknown and unplanned turned into something great - though not without its speed bumps. Greg begins the interview by asking Vic about his sudden relocation to Koh Samui, where he lives full time. Vic explains that although he previously pitched moving to Asia, his wife opposed it until a war broke out in their home country. This crisis forced them to pack and fly to Thailand on incredibly short notice. Next, Vic describes the severe stress of their initial weeks living in limbo. He notes that their mindset shifted from temporary vacationers to permanent residents only when they purchased a couch, symbolizing their commitment to a new life. Vic then discusses how his family integrated by joining Thai boxing, enrolling their children in an international school where they quickly learned English, and building a supportive community of expatriates and locals. Later, Vic highlights the peace of escaping the corporate grind, though he acknowledges the financial pressures of raising a family abroad. He also shares his past experience running a company that released sterile mosquitoes to combat tropical diseases. Following the interview, Greg and Ed reflect on the sheer intensity of relocating an entire family overnight. Greg compares the chaotic packing process to a stressful game show challenge. Ed and Greg express admiration for how Vic and his wife managed the psychological leap from merely escaping a conflict to intentionally building a grounded home. They agree that committing to buying heavy furniture was the ultimate turning point in his journey.

Vic Levitin is a serial founder who built companies in Israel for two decades before fleeing the war with his young family to the island of Koh Samui, Thailand. His first SaaS company, CrazyLister, grew out of his own e-commerce business where he needed a simple way for eBay sellers to build professional listings without knowing HTML. CrazyLister raised about $700K, then a similar second round, and grew to nearly $2M ARR before stalling. Today it runs profitably at roughly $1M ARR. Vic later spent four years co-founding Diptera.ai, a deep-tech venture using a larval-stage breakthrough to suppress malaria-carrying mosquitoes, now backed by the Gates Foundation. From Thailand, Vic now runs an AI-powered venture studio built on one rule: no code gets written until he proves he can generate demand. He partners with domain experts and influencers who already own trusting audiences, which is a model that took his AI-influencer platform to $90K MRR in 18 months, now extending to smaller niches like dog trainers. Key Takeaways Distribution First: Prove you can generate demand and revenue before a single line of code is written. Repeat vs. First: First-time founders obsess about product; repeat founders obsess about distribution. Partner for Reach: Bring on experts and influencers who already own a trusting audience. Micro-Niches Win: AI makes it viable to build dedicated apps for tiny verticals like dog trainers. Time to Money: Chase the fastest path to the first $100 in MRR to make everything real. Quote from Vic Levitin, Founder of CrazyLister "My technical co-founder Yair could build anything, even before AI came along. But we have an agreement, and it's a simple one. "He doesn't write a single line of code — whether from his own brain or with AI — before I prove to both of us that I can generate demand and revenue for whatever we're building. "That agreement formed the way we build now. We're a venture studio, and we solve distribution first by partnering with domain experts who already have trusting audiences."

In the headlines today, a crackdown on nominee businesses in Koh Samui sees 60 entities in the crosshairs, then in Phuket, Freedom beach has been shut down after a tourists death and dangerous sea conditions, that's not the only dangerous nature news as four people were injured by a falling tree in Ayutthaya and flash floods sweep tourists off a waterfall in Chiang Mai, and finally back down in Phuket some tourists have been arrested after disturbing neighbors with several incidents of balcony sex.
More updates regarding the search for two missing Russian siblings near Pattaya, a Thai YouTuber is found dead overseas, Thai AirAsia cuts routes amid rising fuel costs, Koh Samui faces water rationing, Malaysia eyes the return of Formula One and millions in credit card theft. That's all coming up in today's episode.
Es gibt Dinge, die muss man gesehen haben. Den Sonnenuntergang auf Koh Samui, das Stasimuseum in Berlin oder einen zu dicken Menschen auf einer zu kleinen Luftmatratze. Diese Folge Pixel und Punchlines reiht sich als auditives Erlebnis in diese Ereignisse ein. Man kann es nicht beschrieben. Es war magisch. Witzig, hitzig, laut, traurig, verletzlich und vor allem ehrlich. Denn was uns aufregt, hindert uns daran, dass zu werden, was wir unter keinen Umständen sein wollen. Oder vielleicht doch? Nicht? Findet es heraus in dieser sehr nahbaren Episode!
After 5 days on Thailand's third-largest island, I came back with some surprising opinions. In this episode I break down everything from the pricey flights and a disappointing "5-star" resort to the beach clubs, the food prices, and a run-in with a Samui taxi driver. I went to Koh Samui expecting a relaxing escape from Bangkok during the rainy season, but the trip turned out more stressful than restful. I cover what Samui gets right and what left me disappointed. Whether you're planning your first trip to Thailand or you've lived here for years, this review will help you decide if Koh Samui is actually worth it for you on your next trip. A lot of people love Samui, so if you think I got it wrong, tell me in the comments. I genuinely want to know what I missed.
Fast drei Monate war ich diesmal in Thailand. Doch anders als bei meinen vorherigen Reisen ging es diesmal nicht um eine Auszeit vom Job oder darum, meinen nächsten Lebensabschnitt zu planen.Diesmal wollte ich etwas anderes herausfinden:Kann ich meine Freiheit behalten und gleichzeitig eine Beziehung leben?In dieser Folge nehme ich dich mit in meinen Morgen auf Koh Samui. Es ist kurz vor Sonnenaufgang, ich gehe zu den Sportgeräten, über den Morning Market und teile meine Gedanken über Freiheit, Liebe, Beziehung, Alleinsein und die Erkenntnisse, die mich in den letzten Monaten begleitet haben.Außerdem spreche ich darüber, warum ich mein Business für eine Zeit bewusst in den Hintergrund gestellt habe, weshalb Nichtstun manchmal genauso wichtig ist wie Umsetzen und warum die Energie für neue Projekte oft genau dann zurückkommt, wenn wir aufhören, sie erzwingen zu wollen.Viel Freude beim Zuhören.Deine Viola

"My approach to the piece involved a lot of processing. A number of times. And then, at some point, recording a couple of sessions, improvising with the pieces made up to then. This piece is half of the slightly edited and pruned output of those two sessions."Part of my process involved finding some videos on YouTube of the market where the recording was made, and then running a couple of pieces of that video footage through a Max MSP patch I had made which turns video into midi - this in turn was routed into the DAW to play back bits of the original. There were also a couple of sessions with results pitched up and down and through effects and some plugins too, and then that whole process happened again a few times with the bits produced too...."When going through the video footage, I spent some time thinking about what it was showing. You could see it was a busy market, with lots of stalls, lots of colour, stalls with all sorts of delicious tasty treats, and stalls selling bright and gaudy stuff for the tourists too. The videos I found were also mainly shot by Australian tourists, so there was probably a certain amount of selectivity going on in what was being shown. The field recording has a nice gentle feel - murmurings, bits of background radio and music, low chatter, there's a nice relaxed slow feel about things, but the market seems very much for the tourists, who are wandering around with their cameras. The two bits of footage I used included one showing a lovely smiling lady preparing and selling some tasty-looking food - care, hospitality, nurture, love - quiet and kind, but an exchange. And in the background of another bit I spotted a local chap - a man - down the side of a stall flipping through and counting a wad of money. It felt like two ends of a spectrum. Thought this all quite revealing about the place and its dynamics. Made me realise that there were obviously layers that could be peeled back."The pieces were and weren't made with these thoughts in mind (mainly I was just playing with, and having fun with the sounds), but they did serve to shape the arrangement and shape of the final whole afterwards, moving through sections reflecting these types of thoughts."Koh Samui night market reimagined by Sum Crossings.
Koh Samui's fisherman village comes to life at night when the market opens. Here one can buy many trinkets, and enjoy tasty food. Recorded in Thailand by Jake Edwards.
Today we've got 12 arrests made over suspected ties to the murder of a taxi driver las month in Koh Samui, then, over 50 arrests made in Roi Et as late night street racing continues to be a persistent problem, of course we have our foreigners behaving badly in the form of tourist who gets a little too excited on Pattaya Beach, in Political news, Thailand is expanding its defense cooperation with America and France, and a little later we have some updates on Airport infrastructure in Phuket and Hua Hin.
Today we'll be talking about a new digital immigration app rolling out aiming to shorten arrival lines, then, we'll do a deep dive on Thailand's alleged 'Taxi Mafia' as the killing of a driver on Koh Samui exposes deeper problems in the tourist transport industry, also, an Australian influencer was removed from a flight following concerns regarding his recent cosmetic surgery, a little later we'll give you the lowdown on the upcoming Pride Parade hitting the streets of Bangkok this weekend, and finally there's a new bid to create legal protections for sex workers, but will it find success in parliament?
VOV1 - Cảnh sát Thái Lan hôm 16/4 thông báo tiếp tục triệt phá một đường dây lớn, thu giữ số ma túy trị giá hơn 300 triệu Bạt (Baht), tương đương khoảng 9,3 triệu đô la Mỹ.Trung tướng Wattana Yeejeen, Tư lệnh Cảnh sát Vùng 1 mới đây cho biết, lực lượng chức năng đã tiến hành một chiến dịch truy quét nhằm vào mạng lưới ma túy có tên “Bank Phetchabun”. Nhóm tội phạm này bị đưa vào diện theo dõi đặc biệt sau khi giới chức Thái Lan phát hiện manh mối trong quá trình mở rộng điều tra một vụ án ma túy tại tỉnh Ayutthaya hồi tháng 3/2026.Theo Tư lệnh cảnh sát Vùng 1, nhóm tội phạm này hoạt động với phương thức rất tinh vi. Các đối tượng sử dụng một đoàn xe, gồm xe dẫn đường, xe cảnh giới và xe chở hàng để vận chuyển hơn 9,5 triệu viên ma túy tổng hợp đến kho chứa tại tỉnh Ayutthaya (cách thủ đô Bangkok khoảng 80km) vào ngày 13/4, đúng dịp lễ hội Songkran. Kho chứa ma túy được ngụy trang thành kho chứa me nhằm che đậy hành vi phạm tội.Giới chức Thái Lan đã tiến hành vụ đột kích vào rạng sáng ngày 14/4 và bắt giữ 3 nghi phạm. Một đối tượng khác, được cho là người điều phối hoạt động của đường dây đã bỏ trốn. Cảnh sát đang hoàn tất thủ tục để ban hành lệnh truy bắt. Trung tướng Wattana cũng chỉ đạo tiếp tục mở rộng điều tra nhằm triệt phá toàn bộ các mắt xích trong mạng lưới và truy vết khối tài sản phi pháp từ hoạt động phạm tội.Trước đó, ngay trước thềm lễ hội Songkran, ngày 10/4, lực lượng chức năng Thái Lan cũng đã thu giữ gần 2 tấn ma túy đá được ngụy trang tinh vi trên một xe tải chuẩn bị xuống phà tại bến Seahorse, gần trung tâm thủ đô Bangkok, để đi tới đảo du lịch Koh Samui. Cùng thời điểm, tại tỉnh Khon Kaen (Đông Bắc Thái Lan), giới chức cũng bắt giữ 3 người mang quốc tịch Malaysia trong lúc đang vận chuyển 97kg ma túy đá. Những nỗ lực của lực lượng chức năng Thái Lan góp phần quan trọng đảm bảo an toàn cho người dân và du khách quốc tế trong dịp diễn ra lễ hội Songkran. Riêng tại thủ đô Bangkok, mùa lễ hội năm nay ước tính đã thu hút gần 5 triệu người tham gia các hoạt động vui chơi, tăng hơn 90% so với năm trước./.VOV Thái LanCảnh sát Thái Lan kiểm tra tang vật vụ án - Nguồn Cảnh sát Vùng 1 Thái Lan

An architect and an interior designer move to Thailand in search of a White Lotus lifestyle, and guess what? They only want to spend a fraction of what that would cost! Surely that will work out just fine! We're watching House Hunters International S201 E01 “The White Lotus Inspired Search in Koh Samui,” and we found it on HBO Max. Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textWhat if the most liberating truth you could hear is also the simplest: Jesus is Lord. We revisit the five solas through a fresh lens and zoom in on Solus Christus—Christ alone—as the pulse of the gospel that still frees captives, steadies anxious hearts, and sends ordinary people into extraordinary mission.We share updates from the field: a new English-speaking campus launching in Koh Samui, a learning center designed to help refugee kids reach higher education, and courageous anti‑trafficking work that brings rescue, restoration, and dignity to survivors. These stories aren't statistics; they are living proof that when the church trusts grace over grind, faith over fear, and Scripture over tradition, real people meet a real Savior. You'll hear of an 11-year-old exploited and now on a path toward healing, and a Pakistani couple who found a Bible, found Christ, and found the courage to start again.Then we dig into Romans 5:1–2 and unpack three anchors that hold in any storm: justification by faith, reconciliation with God, and bold access to the throne of grace. We confront legalism that suffocates and hyper‑grace that excuses, and we point to the better way where obedience springs from love. Along the way, we trace Jesus through all 66 books of Scripture and remember why the early church's original creed still changes lives: Jesus is Lord. If you've felt unworthy, anxious, or far from God, this conversation opens the door to mercy, peace, and confidence in prayer.Join us, share it with a friend who needs hope, and help us keep this work moving.

Today we're talking about major flooding hitting 17 Thai provinces, two Israelis arrested in Koh Samui for a counterfeit money scam, and Thaksin Shinawatra possibly teaching English in prison. Plus, a Pattaya brawl over public urination, a Brazilian woman arrested for assaulting a cop, Bangkok's street food reform, and U.S. backing the Philippines after a South China Sea clash.
As we speed towards the 4th quarter of 2025, some economic metrics in South East Asia are trending towards nervousness. Air travel capacity is a primary case study, where the year-on-year data is mostly positive (look away now, Indonesia), but the ASEAN and APAC regions (overall) are still playing catching from 2019... all those pre-Covid years ago. Plus, on our weekly travel news roundup, Gary and Hannah journey across ASEAN to discuss the top talking points in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Cambodia, the Philippines and Timor Leste. En route, we discuss the devastating flooding fallout in Bali, 'brownouts' in Boracay, Koh Samui's controversial mega-bridge and the downbeat news that the Thai-Cambodia border "will not be reopened soon." To salve the sense of gloom, we finish by keeping our fingers crossed that Timor Leste will be admitted as the 11th member of ASEAN - although no-one seems quite sure.

Cuentahabientes, a ver díganme, ¿cuántos de ustedes no han viajado a algún destino sólo porque se hizo famoso en alguna película o serie? Por ejemplo, ahora todo mundo quiere ir a las islas Koh Samui y Phuket en Tailandia porque en la serie The White Lotus se ven espectaculares... Pues esto se llama turismo cinematográfico y hoy vamos a hablar de los pros y contras de esto con Jafet Quintero. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
What connects CNN, Coldplay, Bollywood, The White Lotus, Bluey, Minecraft and K-dramas? All are linked to the burgeoning trend of representing tourism destinations in TV series, movies, videos, documentaries and computer games. This week, Gary and Hannah assess the top 8 TV and Movie Tourism talking points in ASEAN, Asia Pacific and beyond. The global journey takes us from Jakarta, Koh Samui and Singapore to Seoul, Jeju Island and Okinawa - and beyond to the UK, New Zealand and Australia. En route, we discuss the influence of micro-dramas, Ne Zha 2 and Black Myth: Wuking on domestic tourism in China. We look at the darker side of tourism on screen, including No More Bets, The Beach, Iseltwald and the filming issues around The Expats in Hong Kong. Plus we tap into the changing role of tourism boards and travel suppliers in destination placement, assess the surging growth of on-location cookery shows, and explore how Netflix is financing local TV productions to promote culture, heritage and tourism in Indonesia and South Korea for domestic and regional audiences.
Today we'll be talking about Thailand's recent movements in the global happiness ranking, is it good news or bad news? Find out soon! We'll also be talking about the impact that the popular HBO show White Lotus is having on Koh Samui's real estate market, and a little later the terms that have been agreed upon in the renewed search for missing Malaysian Airlines flight MH370.
Episode 54: Show Notes. Today, we are taking a trip back in time to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic as we approach the fifth anniversary of lockdowns across the globe. Joining us to discuss this period is long-time friend Chris, who was traveling the world when lockdowns hit. In our conversation, he shares his experiences of the pandemic abroad, his tumultuous escape abroad as lockdowns were implemented, and the impact of travel restrictions on global tourism.

We also learn about Chris's involvement in revitalizing the Chicago Seminars for the travel community post-COVID and how volunteers and contributors helped raise nearly 30,000 USD for charity.
