Welcome to JHPLiving!
I’m Jamie, a Brit who quit the 9–5 to travel full-time across Southeast Asia and to live a live full of adventure and purpose.
Here you’ll find travel adventures, life abroad vlogs, hidden gems, travel guides and the real cost of living around Asia… plus the food that fuels the journey 🍜
If you’re dreaming of leaving an unfulfilling job, travelling more or building a life on your own terms, hopefully you’ll get some value and inspiration out of my videos so follow along the journey with me!

I’m uploading a video that’ll be live in 2 hours that I wasn’t sure I wanted to make. Everyone talks about how exciting big cities in Asia are. Which is true. But fewer people talk about the trade-offs.
After a year living in Vietnam’s biggest city, I finally sat down and asked myself if this past year here has been worth it and discuss some of the things that don’t make it into the Instagram posts… the pros and the cons.
Stay tuned for it ✌️

Just uploaded my 3-day Da Lat travel vlog showing you some of the best things you can do there including riding alpine coasters, canyoning, coffee, night markets… it was awesome!
Which part of Dalat do you think looks the most fun?
The Alpine Coaster? Canyoning? Street Food Market?
Appreciate all the support as always ❤️

After 10 years away I headed back to Thailand and my first stop was.. Bangkok! 🇹🇭
I recorded a video whilst I was there: Can You Still Eat for $1 in Bangkok? (2025 Street Food Challenge)
I spent the evening in Chinatown (Yaowarat) trying to find the CHEAPEST street food I could and some of the prices surprised me, especially when I compare it to my last visit 10 years ago.
What would you go for first?
Dumplings? Fried Chicken? Pork Skewers? Dessert (sticky mango rice)?

Just dropped a new video:
Vietnam’s Best Kept Secret: The Ha Giang Loop (2025 Guide) 🇻🇳
I did the 4 day Premium Tour with Road Kings in November 2025 and this video covers everything (itinerary, costs, easy rider vs driving yourself, accommodation, what to pack and my honest thoughts etc) a well as some cool clips of the trip itself!
If you’re thinking about doing the Loop (or already booked it) or just interested in seeing why this is one of the best tours you can ever do… give it a watch and let me know what you’re thoughts!👇

The Ha Giang Loop is hands down one of the best things I’ve ever done and we’re only on day 2 of 4!
The freedom out on the open roads surrounded by stunning landscapes and nature… it doesn’t get much better than this 🙌
If you haven’t experienced the loop add it to your bucket list!

This was a completely custom food tour through hidden neighbourhoods, packed with local dishes.

I walked away from my $100k corporate sales job to live in Vietnam and travel around Southeast Asia 🌏
It hasn’t always been easy this year but it was the best decision I’ve ever made.
👉 New video is live now: Why I Quit My $100K Sales Job to Live in Vietnam https://youtu.be/l1_rmjDQp0g
Would you quit a high-paying job if it meant chasing freedom and adventure?
