Eccentric Couple Go Off-Grid In Thailand To Survive the Coming Collapse Lolo and Tee have built a fully off-grid life in rural Thailand — growing their own food, collecting rainwater, and generating solar power. As global instability rises, they’re preparing quietly and deliberately, choosing independence over uncertainty. This film offers a rare look inside their self-sufficient setup and the mindset of modern preppers who believe collapse is coming.

Why I use the word “expat” In Thailand, foreigners are stamped “Non-Immigrant” in their passport. That means you must check in every 90 days, can’t work in jobs reserved for Thais, can’t own land, and can be deported (and banned for 5–10 years) if caught working without a permit. So while I’d love to call myself an immigrant, legally we’re not — hence the word expat. 2. What I do for a living I run a health foods company here in Thailand and have a work permit that covers all YouTube activities. I’ve paid tax in Thailand for over 10 years — through my own companies (an English school and a jazz lounge), as well as during my career in the 5-star hotel industry (Anantara). And yes — I speak Thai. 3. Can foreigners own land in Thailand? No. But a superficies agreement allows you to control the land for 30+ years, and houses here are relatively affordable (1–2 million THB). If you have children, owning a home is essential for their security. Still, it’s smart to keep around 80% of your net worth in high-performance assets (like BTC) outside Thailand. 4. About my wife We’ve been together 12 years of my 15+ years in Thailand. She’s a finance graduate, hardworking, traditional, and loyal — she earned more and owned more property than me when we met, and she’s stood by me through both success and struggle. 5.
