About me:
I am a graphic designer, Travel Vlogger & Photographer. I travel a lot & make videos about everything I experience from my flights, food, social life, culture nightlife and much more
I love coffee.
I have been inspired by Thailand and its culture, the food and the lovely people. I have been making videos and vlogs since 2012 and improving my filming abilities as a vlogger by using more advanced gears and techniques.
Now YouTube is part of my life and hope it will always be.
Thank you for all your support.
“Dream your life & live your Dream “

Thailand surprised me in a way I didn’t expect.

Instead of city lights and night markets, I found myself on a three-day jungle trek in the mountains — soaked in rain, exhausted, and questioning my decision almost immediately. What started as something that felt overwhelming slowly turned into one of my favorite memories from this trip.

We hiked through rice fields and small villages, learned about local farming and coffee plants, swam in waterfalls, slept in a simple mountain hut, and experienced a completely different rhythm of life. By the end, what felt like a mistake became something meaningful.

We also visited an ethical elephant sanctuary and went bamboo rafting before heading back to the city — a contrast that made this experience even more special.

If you’re curious about a quieter, more local side of Thailand beyond the usual highlights, this one might surprise you.

Zwischen Anwalt, Slum von Bangkok und nächtlichem Livestream wurde es persönlicher als geplant…
Ein kompletter Real-Life-Vlog aus Thailand – privat, beruflich und emotional!

👟 Meine Sportschuhe im Video sind von GIESSWEIN👟Mit meinem Code bekommst du 20% Rabatt auf das gesamte Sortiment
👉 Rabattcode: CHANG20👉 Direkt zum Shop: https://serv.linkster.co/r/3W6DDsM5G0

Heute nehme ich euch mit durch einen dieser Tage, die komplett anders laufen können als geplant.
Vom Termin beim Anwalt mit brisanten Visa-Infos über Einreiseverweigerung, Overstay, Blacklist und Risiken beim Visa-Run – bis hin zu einem emotionalen Besuch im Slum von Bangkok (Klong Toei).

⚖️ Anwalt & Visa-Realität in Thailand
Was passiert aktuell wirklich bei der Einreise?
Wie streng sind Grenzbeamte?
Was bedeutet ein One-Way-Ticket?
Und warum kann ein falsches Visum alles verändern?

Viele, die nach Thailand reisen, hier Urlaub machen oder sogar auswandern wollen, haben Angst vor Zurückweisung am Flughafen. Ich spreche offen darüber – ehrlich, direkt und ohne Panikmache.

🏃‍♂️ Persönliche Entwicklung – weniger Rauchen, mehr Bewegung
Also ziehe ich die Sportschuhe an und laufe los.
Kein Motivationsgelaber – einfach real.
Gedanken, Zweifel, Ehrlichkeit.

🏚️ Slum-Projekt in Bangkok – Klong Toei
Respektvoll, ruhig, ohne Sensationslust.
Manche Begegnungen lassen dich nicht mehr los. Ich musste das erst verarbeiten…

🔴 Creator-Alltag in Thailand
Stream-Vorbereitung, Technik aufbauen, Internet testen, Bangkok bei Nacht erleben – und danach völlig erschöpft im Auto sitzen.
So sieht das Leben zwischen Reisen, Auswandern und YouTube wirklich aus.

Dieser Vlog zeigt nicht nur Orte wie Bangkok, sondern auch die Gedanken dahinter.
Warum ich hier bin.
Was mich antreibt.

Thailand ist mehr als Urlaub in Phuket oder Koh Samui. Mehr als Pattaya, Strand und Sonne. Es ist Alltag, Verantwortung, Risiko – und manchmal auch Selbstreflexion. 🌅

Wenn du dich für Thailand, Reisen, Auswandern oder das echte Leben hinter der Kamera interessierst, dann ist dieses Video für dich.

Viel Spass dabei
Dein Stefan

Post-pandemic travel has returned with a vengeance, with tourist numbers breaking records in many territories. Yet, one country in Southeast Asia lags its neighbours - The Philippines. In 2024, 5.9 million tourists visited the Philippines, well below pre-pandemic levels of 8.3 million. In the first quarter of this year, foreign arrival numbers are 27% below pre-COVID figures for the same period. Despite being blessed with natural beauty and a welcoming culture, why does the Philippines underperform when it comes to tourism? It is a question that Filipinos are asking themselves, as a viral social media thread earlier this year sparked a debate on why the country ranks so low on travellers' wish-lists. How much does this unfulfilled potential cost the Philippines, and what is the country doing to entice visitors to come? With the recent deterioration of relations with China leading to a shrinking number of Chinese travellers, what other markets will the Philippines pursue?

Rodrigo Duterte Hearing LIVE Day 2 | ICC Hearing Ex-Philippine President's Case| Duterte News | CNBC TV18
The International Criminal Court is holding a crucial hearing to decide whether former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte should stand trial for alleged crimes against humanity linked to his controversial “war on drugs.”
Prosecutors at the International Criminal Court told judges on Monday that former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte encouraged death squads to carry out extrajudicial killings using fear and financial rewards.
The court in The Hague is holding pretrial hearings for the ex-leader, who is facing three counts of crimes against humanity for deadly anti-drugs crackdowns he oversaw while in office.
According to prosecutors, police and hit squad members carried out dozens of murders at Duterte's behest, motivated by the promise of money or to avoid becoming targets themselves. “For some, killing reached the level of a perverse form of competition,” deputy prosecutor Mame Mandiaye Niang said in his opening statement.
Duterte “stands behind his legacy resolutely, and he maintains his innocence absolutely,” lead defense lawyer Nick Kaufman told the three-judge panel. According to Kaufman, the prosecution “cherry-picked” examples of Duterte “bombastic rhetoric," and his client's words were never intended to incite violence.
Duterte, 80, was not present in the courtroom, having waived his right to appear. Last month, judges found he was fit to stand trial, after postponing an earlier hearing over concerns about his health.

Did you know the Philippines has strict rules for its flag?
These are the 9 things you should never do to the Philippine flag.
Number one—do not use it for advertisements or branding.
Number two—do not wear it as clothing or a costume.
At number three—never display it lower than other countries’ flags. They should all be at equal height.
at number four—never use it to cover objects.
Then number five—do not raise it at half-mast unless there’s an official government order.
Number six—do not damage the flag or show one that’s torn or worn out.
At number seven—never alter or show any form of disrespect.
Number eight—do not let it touch the ground.
And finally, at number nine—never display the flag upside down unless officially ordered to!

I moved to the Philippines in 2023 with $115,000 in savings, confident I could make it work. Two years later, I was broke. This is the brutally honest story of how I lost everything - the relationships, the lifestyle inflation, the travel, the going out, and all the financial mistakes I made as a new expat. If you're thinking about moving to the Philippines or you're already here struggling financially, learn from my mistakes so you don't repeat them.

💡 What I Learned:
The cost of living in the Philippines CAN be cheap - but only if you're disciplined. Relationships, lifestyle choices, and saying "yes" to everything drained my savings faster than I ever imagined. This video isn't about regret - it's about sharing what I learned so you can avoid the same mistakes.

Philippines Expands Naval Power with 2 New Ships

The Philippine Navy has commissioned two new vessels, strengthening defense across its archipelagic waters and exclusive economic zones. These ships enhance rapid-response capabilities and coastal security, marking a significant milestone in the country’s military modernization. By boosting maritime patrols and territorial protection, the Philippines is taking a decisive step toward safeguarding its waters and asserting its strategic presence in the region.
