I think the one expense that Chantal and Salah did not figure into their budget is travel.
She also didn’t factor in the cost of travel insurance…which was to be expected. I thought every man and his dog knew you can’t afford to get sick, or have an accident requiring a hospital visit/stay when you’re overseas. While people should always take out travel insurance when going overseas, it’s an absolute must when going to Asia. Unfortunately for her, her bankruptcies mean no credit cards, because many credit providers will throw in travel insurance as long as you book fights and/or accommodation on their card. Mind you, with Chantal’s current health status, she might end up with lots of exclusions or additional levys.
I found her conversation regarding staying in a hotel where breakfast is included in the tariff from now on, quite trippy. She really believes that means not only an all you can eat buffet, but also an all you can stuff in your bag for later free for all. I’ve never seen takeaway what you want buffet breakfasts in any hotel that has provided breakfast in the tariff. It’s always only ever been eat what you want during the defined breakfast hours in the dining room (where you couldn’t even take a piece of fruit to go), or a continental breakfast which was at most a bowl of cereal, some milk, juice/tea/coffee, and toast with one serving of topping like jam or peanut paste etc. It would never satisfy Gunt’s bottomless pit appetite.
No wonder you have been so glum this last vlog and Livestream.
I think her gloom is more about shattered expectations. She’s exhausted, in pain, probably very stretched for money to spend now, and her vlogs aren’t getting any more views than her kuwait ones did. She really thought her channel would take off with a husband and international travel. She still thinks it can, she just needs to change her thumbnails every so often. What does she think that will do, trick people into watching the same vlog again and again.
Color me very skeptical that a simple outpatient procedure cost anywhere near 40,000 baht
She, or Salah, added a zero or two to one currency or another. It absolutely would have cost her 4,000 BAHT minimum if she went to a public clinic. If she hit up a private hospital then she wouldn’t have gotten out of it under $400.
