The City of London or the Old City of Chiang Mai. The Home Paradox

Video Synopisis:

After moving to Thailand to become long term expats in Chiang Mai, Sacha & Jmayel from '8 miles from home' have now begun to question where their true home is.

During a Visa Run trip to London after 15 months in North Thailand, the couple use the time to reconnect with family and friends in their original hometown. Seeking out the answer to the home paradox that has become a confusing factor in their lives.

They explore the UK as if tourists in their own homeland. Taking in the sights knowing that soon they would be boarding a flight back to Eden in Chiang Mai.

Will they discover what 'home' means to them?

Very nice and beautifully done - my wife and I are lucky enough to live and work in London and having bought a house 25 years ago can enjoy it in some comfort. But sad to say London is now the safe haven for the world's rich and prices are out of reach and then some for normal people. Which is a shame - but as Dr Johnson said if you're tired of London you're tired of life.

Yet another good production from this lot

It would be great if, for once, they included some substance to go along with all that style.

What is this about, exactly?

Nicely done! I am always surprised though that money is never an issue for these guys

Brilliant, utterly brilliant. Lets not forget that these guys do this just for fun.... Its simply a hobby, but by christ the stuff they do is amazing. Think about all the time and effort that goes into learning the new techniques they develop each time. Realy amazing.

@Frank James. The video is about a young couple who have lived in Thailand for over a year returning home for the first time. Pretty obvious, realy. More interesting if you watch there videos from the start.

They also live realy well up there in Chiang Mai and always do real interesting things. It shows there is more to Thailand than sitting in a pub, or playing golf. They truly are living the dream here and I wish them all the best.

I just love the work these two produce,pure talent.

Welcome new member you've just reminded me of Socrates Test of 3.

In ancient Greece (469 – 399 BC), Socrates was widely lauded for his wisdom. One day the great philosopher came upon an acquaintance who ran up to him excitedly and said, “Socrates, do you know what I just heard about one of your students?”

“Wait a moment,” Socrates replied. “Before you tell me I’d like you to pass a little test. It’s called the Test of Three.”

“Test of Three?”

“That’s right,” Socrates continued. “Before you talk to me about my student let’s take a moment to test what you’re going to say. The first test is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?”

No,” the man said, “actually I just heard about It.”

“All right,” said Socrates. “So you don’t really know if it’s true or not. Now let’s try the second test, the test of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my student something good?”

“No, on the contrary…”

“So,” Socrates continued, “you want to tell me something bad about him even though you’re not certain it’s true?”

The man shrugged, a little embarrassed.

Socrates continued. “You may still pass though, because there is a third test – the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my student going to be useful to me?”

“No, not really.”

“Well,” concluded Socrates, “if what you want to tell me is neither True nor Good nor even Useful, why tell it to me at all?”

The man was defeated and ashamed. This is the reason Socrates was a great philosopher and held in such high esteem.

No mistake or badness about it, just telling it like it is.

I'm not the only one to say things like that about the exager8 mile crew.

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck and acts like a duck...

It probably is a duck.

Oh unlike some on here I don't rate a person by his post count and join date.
