good morning good morning my friends from Thailand  it is my first time back here in nearly 6 years   and I'm super excited because we are heading into  a region of Thailand that is not as popular as   places like the islands and Bangkok we will be  exploring the Northwestern part and sharing with   you some wild adventures as we start out by  meeting some elephants in a [Music] sanctuary   driving deep into the jungle to locate some hot  springs where we can make some lunch that is g and then visit the Grand Canyon of Thailand so  we're going to be walking right on the Dragon's   Back look at how narrow this is right there  oh along with some exotic caves and temples   you will not even believe are real so get  ready to see a side of Thailand you never   imagined in this raw travel

way my friends one   thing I wanted to mention is I've actually  written an ebook all about things to do in   Thailand places to visit incredible islands  that you cannot miss out on as well as other   things that are a bit harder to come across  which is like how to get from one Island to   the next fairies speedboats how do you travel  by plane in Thailand and so much more that has   all of my experiences written in there and I  think you'll find it very helpful so if you   want to check that out there's a link down in  the description below all right putting them to work look how

learned how to put my hand   that close to a massive animal's mouth Jun need  a single get in there sit down in that Ben Junior   he's going to end up eating you next these guys  just had a full meal look at how big this thing is oh ho he wants to get on camera he's like  who's got Chow who's got Chow he's searching   around the bananas are all gone brother this  one's just a little elephant too and it's still massive it's like a mini dinosaur right here yeah  oh [ __ ] that's their Footprints are so big you   have to walk out cuz they're like craters yeah  ready for a little lunchtime just about he mhm   those bananas were white delish talking just look  at the tails on these things M when you feel it's   like a really tough skin you don't want to have  your foot caught under there do you dud man I   don't think so I cherish my toes yeah me too and  watch out for that thing get whipped by that three   lashes from that it's pretty amazing though these  Tails have like so much power can just control it   to swat the Flies and you can hear it kind of hard  to hear but when it really flips that tail you can   hear the from the wind all right it looks like  it's feeding time over here the big ones what is this oh oh you see that's how they uh break  it apart he steps on it kind of falls   into pieces yeah and then he's able  to chew it bit easier that's a delish piece wow oh it's got a nice fresh  smell to it here's where the chopping happens oh yeah and splits that in half  all right so this is this is the good   one right there right o a fresh piece  just for you M M M fresh piece just for you flip it over to the good  side so he knows this is the good one oh look at that thing just juice right out  face from there this reminds me the sugar can   juice I had over in India they just press  it down with a little less pressure than   that elephant foot but o delish I know I love  you too budddy and then the thing about it is   you'll see me turn it around my dad's catching  content this elephant like we want Chow look   at that a whole pile of chow you can't even  decide which one's the good one which one's   going to be the freshest the wetest and  the most delish what about this one oh yeah got a lot of options here so much fun you  can do andb you can grab I think that one's a   girl right right and he just tosses it after he  gets as much as he can out of it all right so this   is actually banana stock so what is this tastes  like banana comes from a banana tree wow all right   so definitely not sugar cane but it does have a  similar look to it but it is look at just look   at how juicy this is the juice wow that just com  right out that's why these guys love it oh yeah   he knows I've got the good one right there good it  doesn't good you don't need thumbs when you can do   everything with your trunk that's nice juicy piece  right there let's get this one added into the mix   oh yeah how about that that's a nice one oh yeah  crunch that one right down oh yeah delish no no no going for an itch there look at this from  these elephants itching right here it's just   completely soft bark that is pretty amazing  feel how soft that is oh what's going on over   here he's doing a little itch too wow it is it's  like it's been sanded down just rub that off huh   yeah you could sell that at an antique shop  yeah custom made elephant wood uhuh elephant   wood yeah we just saw some that wasn't W TJ TJ  goes it's a female like was that the eat 10% of   their body weight that's what uh they said before  per day yeah man oh man that's hungry eat all day   that's a hungry guy she's going for the milk  oh really little dessert right there the right there oh wow little nursing action look at  Le Mama wow went from bananas to the uh trees   don't move don't [Music] [Laughter] don't look  at him going up there grabbing a little ch way   up there while using that tree to lean on it  look at these guys we've got the little baby   right here that's thinking about going in he's  just done a couple reverse back and forth and   now he's stressing himself out just trying to hop  in that water oh no he's doing a little uh head   scratch there these guys are chilling all right  leads them right in and it is time one dive mat cold all right you go get him kill so  unfortunately here my GoPro died but we   pulled out the phones and did a little bit  of swimming with the elephants that's right   we literally climbed into this Ponder river  right here and bathed the elephants it was a   pretty wild experience because these are huge  animals but when they roll over into the water   they actually feel a little bit smaller and you  have to scrub their skin because of how thick   it is just just to clean all of the dirt off look  at these guys they like to spray us here oh oh my god oh yeah full shower for you he wants to make sure if  he's coming out clean you come out clean too all   right when the elephants decide it's time to go  that's when you know it's it's time to go Retreat   Retreat oh this one's coming right up this way  better get out of his way oh bath time is done   it's probably feeding time now and as soon as you  finish cleaning them off they will hop out of the   water and immediately recover themselves with  dirt I guess for the reason being that it keeps   some of the bugs off of them and that my friends  was a trip to the elephant Freedom Village and   it was about 1,600 tibot per person which comes  out to like 4 $ roughly and it was an amazing   time it got us up close to the elephants they're  treated well here they get to live like they're   living out in the wildlife but treated so well so  an amazing time a lot more videos to do here in Thailand if there's one thing you'll find  in Northern Thailand is an unbelievable   amount of waterfalls everywhere you go we are  arriving here to mocha waterfall on on our way   up to Pi and look at this beauty just constantly  pouring the sounds of nature we've got the two of   them coming up it's a nice little 10-minute  hike some of the waterfalls you got to work   really hard for some of them you can just drive  right up to this one was a 10-minute pretty easy   hike to get there if it was a little warmer  out would be perfect to hop in there and go swimming so we are walking through this wild forest cuz  all around here are Vines hanging down and like   it's crazy to see all this wood just grows and  wraps around you feel like you're in a Tarzan   movie and then you feel like you're in Jurassic  Park when I show you what we're walking up to   and that is you guys are look at this 90 to 100  Celsius here so that just gives you an idea how   hot that is that is boiling water that is just  spewing out of the Earth right here and the dud   man's going to be cooking up some eggs in here  okay all right I do my phone so essentially he's   making hard-boiled eggs you can buy them here at  the national park and yeah here we go 15 minutes   it says here the temperature of pong duet geyser  is about 90° follow the tutorial your result will   be as pitch you can boil egg boil cooked yolk but  soft egg white at Hong n Ram R taipa 15 minutes   it says 15 minutes they've got these sticks right  here if you're living close enough to a hot spring   in in places around the world you can actually  have your own personal hot spring which means   you have some hot water coming directly into  the place that you never have to heat so it's   pretty wild to look at this I've seen a couple  of these before in Yellowstone National Park in   the US but never anywhere else in the world  so it's cool to be back here and having some   breakfast being cooked right up oh yeah you can  smell that sulfur nice and strong that's coming   straight from the earth oh yeah it fogged up your  glasses a bit actually if the steam doesn't come   directly at you you can't smell it as much as  some of the other geysers that I've been to   probably cuz this one's a little bit more tame  but yeah it just got such a rotten egg sulfury   smell to it but uh when you're making eggs I'd  say it's quite fitting hot here we go and here   we go the Chow is coming out after 15 minutes of  cooking hot hot hot oh yeah I don't know if you   want to be holding under that oh don't don't don't  keep it keep it he's got fingers of Steel we can   like walk it's the plastic the bamboo is fine it's  the plastic that's hot oh okay sweet you got the   Sal soer here we come all right we got everyone  lining up for cow breakfast is served right on all right you know it's hot because all  my life my dad would grab the pizza out of   the burning hot oven with his bare hands  bare hands dude bare hands how do he do that oh the subscribers are going to love you Dad  look at that it's really SP not so hot no not so   hot oh look at mabula she knows what she's doing  not her first rodeo not her first egg yeah she's   got hot pads buil in hot pads look at that getting  that survival mode I know right who's going to   she's the type of person you'd want to be stuck in  the wilderness if uh we were on our last uh she'd   be the one we'd have to eat [Laughter] last survey  says mother nature style oh that is some delish   groceries dad that white is good delish groceries  g o d good let's go ahead and open this bad boy up oh yeah that is hot that is smoking  hot oh oh thank you talking about you let's try that baby out we got half now M that is freaking delicious and  hot but yeah you can't really taste   any of the sulfur in it just tastes  like a typical hardboiled egg but   you feel like you earned it when  you cooked it out here in nature nature that is g o d oh yeah after we had an  excellent breakfast oh yeah he already knew what   I was going to say now it is time to head over  and check out the hot spring that is exceptional   oh but as you can tell this trip is surrounded by  tons of fantastic humor and dead jokes and so once   we get down here we're going to see Mel's First  Reactions seeing hot but we're existentialist but   bu existential and we're seeing that same little  Spring River running all the way down this way and   it leads to the hot screen oh I got some look at  that look at how big that ant is that was on my   head he looks like someone who would bite if I uh  left him in the Hat oh sweet so this is like a a   full-on hot spring Chiller right there got the  pool leading down this way that looks awesome   I guess a couple different baths that lead into  it is the water pretty warm yeah really warm oh   yeah so it looks like they must just have a pipe  that runs right to it oh wow oh yeah that's super   hot you almost wish it was a little colder it'd  be one of those uh places you want to come like   late at night cuz here in the mountains it gets  like a little brisk chilly at night so coming and   chilling in here o we got to come here and stay  out one of these one of these next times look at   this water's pretty clear too it's almost like a  natural Resort here leading this way another Pool   down there yeah that is pretty awesome yeah what  I was saying is it's uh it's the type of place you   want to come at night here in the mountains like  if we were staying up in those cabins dad that   would be pretty sweet pretty nice yeah they've got  some cabins all around here you can come and stay   up here hanging out here at night 45 celsus what  is that in Fahrenheit like what are we talking   like 110 no 130 I have no idea yeah I mean it's  prob it's hot so right now with the sun beating on   us it doesn't feel that refreshing feel that you  might feel when you go inside of like a pool but   this would be great if there was like a cold pool  over there and then jump in the hot and switch   over 113° 45 C 113 right so yeah that's that's  pretty warm now that I have my feet in it it's not   hot yeah yeah you get used to it too it's hot but  it's not like w yeah it's a little more relaxing   Co oh no I feel like this one's almost hotter even  though I'm sure it's not maybe because we're in   maybe CU we're in direct oh no this one's a little  warmer uh it's a little cooler I mean yeah I don't   know maybe it cools down in this whole area cuz  when you put your hand in here it feels like it's   so coming fresh from the spring but yeah this is  this is awesome great spot to come and chill if   you're up here in the northern part of Thailand  I know relaxing and chillaxing look at this I'm   being told these are all private hot tubs right  here so you can soak in the nude so does that mean   uh on the other side they just have a unrestricted  view like this side there's walls other side you   can kind of see out into nature usually not that  I've been in because uh to contain the heat gotcha   gotcha got you and right down there through there  is where all the cabins are so this would be the   place where you could come stay a couple nights  here I'm sure they have internet and everything   cuz I'm seeing a satellite dish if you want  to have a nice little movie night at night it   looks like they're pretty spacious as well you can  see that there's some sort of I don't know if you   guys can see that but a huge bed right out there  balcony probably could use a couple chairs out   there but hey hey looks like an awesome place you  just really do feel like you're out in nature I'm   not sure which time of the year is like the super  busy time here but right now there's not that many   people and so we've probably seen 25 people total  in the couple hours we were here so just kind of   gives you more of that like non overrun feeling  because obviously Thailand's a super popular [Music] destination we are arriving to P Canyon right  this way and as you can see like with most of   the places here in Tha you're going to be  able to find some ice cold drinks right   when you walk in and it looks like mabula  even found herself one here oh we've got   coconuts here these let's see I might have  to join for one coconut two coconuts please   brother and Coconut's on me on me it's on  me on it's on me no no yeah there you go no   yep no no up just a moment got to get the  machete out to take this thing out right oh nothing thing's popping right open strawberry  all right delish my love okay L all we got one   oh yeah ladies first enjoy it's cold  too let's see how it compares to the others H the SP o of that oh yeah popcorn cup  and um mango smoothie and strawberry smoothie   all right we are heading up to see the Grand  Canyon of Thailand here in pi we found a uh   monkey on the way up here and it's getting our  workout in for the day oh yeah oh God my I don't   know how you do that cuz I'm strong like bull all  right and we have made it up just about and we're   about to see the canyon the GoPro is definitely  not the type of camera I don't think I see a   canyon really oh first time seeing a canyon be  careful on these Ledges you can literally go   straight down oh God very very yeah oh and these  are like platforms people walk across here wow   wow so we're going to be walking right on the  Dragon's Back look at how this is right there oh no here good boy good boy hello over there but yeah this is beautiful  landscape here Green Mountains in   the distance lot of green vegetation  as you're going to expect up here in   the beautiful northern part of Thailand  right outside of P you can tell we're a   bit out of shape cuz uh that's not  that far of a hike and we're out of breath so we're walking through Pi's walking  Street a one-of-a-kind place that turns into a   full on walking Street Marketplace thought you  were to get whatever I am vlogging oh yeah as   you can see there's Chow everywhere being made  fresh on the streets oh yeah that looks delish   and then all along here find yourself some clothes  to purchase and we're going to see if we can find   ourselves another dessert I'm sure I won't be  able to sleep but who needs sleep anyways that's   for the dead that's right all right we're coming  back for round two brownie

our   bro saman's going to be showing us around the  caves awesome looking forward to it how long's   the tour 1 Hour 1 hour all right sweet oh nice all  right that's going to be fantastic so we'll use   the lantern to light up the caves fantastic  oh nice oh that's scary there's not going like all right we're getting our Lantern already  got a little fuel there now we're going to spark   that thing up we go we're roasting let's do this  I would like to thank all of you for supporting   my new clothing brand perception which I recently  launched and it supports the ideology of changing   perceptions of the world one country at a time and  through the last 5 years I've been traveling all   around the world and during that time I've  had the opportunity to meet so many people   experien many unique cultures and see places  that I understood in a completely different   way and that led me to create my clothing brand  perception we have perception because when you   walk out and see the world right there where  the O is you get to experience the world in   a new way every time you put yourself out there  and so I've created a number of different items   one of them being the sweatshirt right here  as well as hoodies and t-shirts both printed   as well as blank and you can check them out on  my website a link down in the description below   with every purchase there's a percentage that  goes back to communities and families in need   all around the world and I share those in videos  for you guys to experience so thank you so much   back to the video we are heading in and look at  how massive these fish are coming in these are   the little guys we're going to be feeding  and they're just coming straight near the river they're just waiting in a line right here  look at this this is crazy and they're huge who   wants some fish Chow I've got some for you  oh yeah CH time who wants lunch who's hungry   we're going to get a nice little handful of  them get it right there oh yeah look at there   they go okay okay yeah I know right they are  hungry look at that these fish have evolved   into just coming to the cave and just jumping  out of the water fish out of the water mhm it   smells like dog food too it doesn't smell like  the tastiest food but hey they seem to be loving it give some over here oh yeah too 20  one more yeah one one more uh oh another   location inside oh okay all right let's  watch him watch him go all the way over here s chow chow now look at this guy's  just got his mouth open right there I   want to make one in his mouth look  at him oh yeah he's like please I'll   do anything for at least one I'm trying  to make it in there we go oh look at the   catfish right in the middle there look  at it here this one look at he's just begging he's doing that poor little guy  down there copc corn cop all right look   at this guys we are heading into the cave that  was such a cool way to start out you have all   these fish right there massive fish in such  Shallow Water swimming around and they're just   completely overpopulated and uh it was awesome  to uh just be able to feed them hungry little   guys but now we're heading into the cave it's  feeling a little chili inside I'm not sure why   he said it was hot in here cuz it's good thing  we brought the jaet jaet oh careful there o we   are crossing now the wooden bridge these are  the places in Thailand you got to go to that   are far outside of places like bkock oh it  looks like it's a huge drop right here but   really it's just the water no it's it's not  it's an illusion it looked like a huge drop   but it was only one foot down oh really yeah it  was the reflection I saw what you saw all right   it is pretty dark in here but it's cool you can  see all of the cave formations as we're walking   through the stalos sites and stal limites I  still don't know the difference people always   tell me in the comments but I someh never  remember it's Stone oh look at this stone   is that like a Sandy Stone yeah stone look that a  pancake Stone eh mhm pancake don't touch no touch   pancake pancake yeah oh a fresh little pancake  Rock right there delish oh my god when you're   walking through these places it's always pretty  mind-blowing to see how these different formations   are because they're not really weathered  with precipitation outside dripping from the caves oh wow like a waterfall yeah Sun H be  thereare let's do this how you guys doing in   here pretty wild with those fish eh man haven't  done it yet no there's two spots to feed right   when you walk in and then the second one is  probably the one you're going to now oh yeah   oh yeah that first one oh yeah yeah some feeding  a lot of feeding a full bag yeah oh man that was   pretty sweet all right Budd they were chowing  down eag eag head we got an eagle head right   up there look at how high it is that's scary I'm  not going to look up yeah wow I see why Cav men   lived in caves it's a nice little place you can  turn this into a mansion custom made and look   at this now we have found the popcorn there's  about every type of delici yes yeah looks put   a little butter on there that could be some  good Chow popcorn with a little extra salt   too oh we're really going in here yeah these  types of places are a little spooky cuz you're   walking through and you know you're in a cave  and it takes a special type bravery teeth oh   what do we have here teeth oh yeah yeah that's  a big tooth right there that's like a wisdom tooth wow you can just see when the light  brightens it up a bit how vast these caves   are all right so there's the difference  we got stalagmites and we got stoc sites   stalagmites have been formed where dissolved  kelite water dropped from coiling or tip of   stalite onto the floor lately Waters  evaporated leaving calcium carbonate   accumulated on the ground and growing up the  shape of stalagmites depends on gravity and   often has a splash cup at the Tipping Point  so that is how you remember the differences   between stalagmites and stalos sites so I think  it means we've got both inside of here yeah mhm   all right we are heading over to the boat  right now we got to take a little wooden bridge we're taking this staircase really  really steep set of stairs we have made it   yeah yeah saai saai so we've got like a  prehistoric reindeer writing here where   you can found in a high level Cavern there's all  this writing right there thousands and thousands   two or 3 thousand years ago to be exact you  know see see oh yeah 2 or 3,000 yeah you see   oh yeah yeah yeah right there right head  body tail like like like like sun that's   very nice all right you getting the foot  down let's do this these are some steeple steps we're taking a little  Cruiser right on over all right sa all right we're doing it oh we got  them hungry oh look at these we' got   the fish right coming near the boat they  must know hello hey who be there hola we   just started the boat cruise hello all  right hello look at this we got them   right down here they're just swimming by got  the bats making noise as with everything in   life there is always light at the end of the  tunnel but in this case we're talking about   a cave all right land aoy we have made it  back and that was an insane ride left over chill who wants CH oh oh he's he's getting the bottle I just got  all in my shoe let's eat let's eat it's time it is   time look at they just going nuts all right see if  I can avoid falling in kind of hard to walk along this oh oh oh subai subai yeah this place is truly something else  but you can tell where right near where the   bats are I think I either just got pooped  on or peed on or that was water I'm glad   I got the visor right now but everything is  just over here just covered in so much bat   crap look at this this is insane this  is like one of the coolest caves I've   ever experienced in my life and this gives  you a better look so we're riding on these   boats to get in there obviously was super  dark and there's just a lantern and then   a guy driving the boat in you can take some  shots chill and just look at these let's do this oh and the views keep getting better and  better my friends wow as we go up just to put   in perspective these are how narrow those  stairs are or Steep and we've made it up   to the top here we're not seeing any bats cuz  obviously how bright it is but this gives you   that view of everything the gopro's blowing it  out but essentially you have the river running   through here leading out down into the trees  there you have this whole big area this gives   you a much better understanding of why cavemen  had once lived inside the caves provides amazing   coverage it's a little cooler here than being  out in the hot sun and there's water running   straight through it that's awesome all right  and we are back to the entrance where it all   started this is the illusion Mel thought it was  a major drop off but it's the reflection of How   High the ceilings are here all right brother  thank you so much that's for you thank you   so much thank you brother nice to meet you  thank you thank you we'll see you next time   thank you Copco cup all right so that was a nice  little cave exploration see you guys in our next place [Music] all right so we just arrived to the guest house  that we're going to be staying at and how we ended   up here actually is my dad's friend dud he booked  a place for us up here in Northern to Island they   double booked and so this family was nice enough  to open up their house for us where they normally   have I guess a few months out of the Year this  place turned into a guest house and so it was   closed down for the season but they reopened  it for us and we're going to give you guys a   little tour around this place now keep in mind  since it is closed down there are probably some   areas that they have a little bit more upkept  than normal because they literally just opened   it up for us today and let us come but it is an  awesome place so let's go check this out right   when you walk in you see this almost like I guess  you could maybe call it like a horse with all of   these flowers hanging right there there's a few  plateaus which I'm sure light up at night to hang   out and over here we have probably the coolest  room in the house I want to say that's probably   the families that owns it their area maybe an  eating area we're going to have some Chow at   and then we'll show you our place on the other  side in just a moment but first we got to show   you probably the coolest spot they've got which is  right inside of here and check this out so we've   got that finished concrete look on the inside a  bit of modern and Thai mix here with as you can   see the wall accents coming in here we've got like  a bluish uh concrete and yeah really nice bathroom   modern and exquisite and then over here we've  got a little day bed so AC in all of the room   and then where we're all spending most of our  time is chilling out here on the deck the king   and queen of chillax in here eh how we doing how  you doing not to B A and yeah look at this guys   this is our view so so beautiful the amazing  part is it's like we're living with the local   people here I mean it's not like we're sitting  next to a resort where we have a bunch of other   tourists our neighbors right here are local Thai  people from this area and so you really get that   integration of the local culture while also having  an awesome place I'm sure when this whole area   is in the High season when this place is open as  you can see down there I would guess they've got   a fire pit down there a little beer pong something  like that because there's some reminiscence of the   last party there quite a few chongs sitting in  that box so not a bad place to be relaxing and   let's go ahead and show you this place from the  sky and look at this we got a little kitty right   here hey little guy oh he doesn't want to play  but yeah right down here is where we are staying   so we've got these beautiful views and if you  look out into the distance here this is what we   get to wake up to it is that time of the year when  they're burning some of the fields so that's why   you'll see some of the smoke the haziness but it  is amazing being out here in nature in Northern   Thailand but this is what it looks like inside of  the room we got my bell chilling on the phone and   we've got the canopy bed over there mosquito nut  and even some AC in here so not too B A and yeah   nice little toilet in here bamboo surround for  the shower if you can see inside side of there and   that's our little spot here so a pretty awesome  spot as you can see we have just teleported to   inside of the truck we are departing Our Guest  House at the moment goodbye little one bye bye so we are going about 10 minutes away  actually where we're going right now is   the place that uh my Dad's friend dud  originally booked for us but we ended   up here because of the double booking so we're  actually still going to be having dinner over   there because this place isn't normally open  right now it's only open a couple months per   year and so as you can see it's a cool little  guest house but uh yeah we're doing the local   tiway we're riding in the back of the truck  since it's only a 10-minute drive along the   Country Roads wanted to see what it was like  as a local hopping in the back Full Speed Ahead all right look at this right at  Sunset we are heading in this my friends   is Thailand for you up in the mountains  right along the border truly just such a   beautiful place and wow I am impressed  we're going to be doing a lot in this   video so make sure you stick around  because these Adventures are going to   be wild especially cuz we've got my dad in  there somewhere up front chillaxing how we doing hello tyland s yeah so I just realized I don't  even know what city we're cruising   through right now somewhere up in the  mountains somewhere cool and like far   from all the touristy places cuz yeah so far  cruising through here and since we arrived I   haven't seen a single other tourist so this  is pretty awesome s down boy sit down boy Sit Boy [Music] all right and we have made it so  these were the uh guest houses I guess we would   have stayed at these were the original ones  you had in mind this is what I wanted you to   St oh man great taste great taste

want to leave let's test it up   oh and all right we get up here the standard  room we've got standard rooms up here too so   yeah there's some pretty awesome uh Guest  House experiences you can have

look   at that The Omelette has arrived how's it tasting  delicious hitting the spot look at this we've got   a little minced pork mixed right in there from  the locals let's go ahead and try that out did   you guys coming from Milwaukee Chicago chicag  light white yeah Airplane White yeah so this   omelet it almost has like a layer of crispiness  like it's been fried and that adds a nice flavor   to it and it's not spicy here that's the one  thing most of the foods you're going to have   in Thailand are usually going to be spicy so a  pretty common thing here with you know In tha   you're always going to get rice with things most  of the time you're going to get eggs as I already   mentioned some spices and um noodles soups all  these types of things so it is delish though   oh it is time right here cup [ __ ] cup look  at that a nice little chicken soup on top of it except that M I might have the bite of oh  that is fantastic that's that spiciness is   next level this is what we come to Thailand for  I'm in the background is to get the stuff that   we're going to pay eating the onion tomorrow  for ain't that right oh God he said he came   to Thailand for me with him so what all do we  have in here we've got a little chicken we've   got some onions spinach yeah and plenty of  peppers you're eyeing this thing out theread   you want to give it a shot no no no man oh man  he's trying to I've got to I've got to watch   my figure no one else will you know we don't  want to send you back to Wisconsin and have   you telling everybody that we didn't feed you I  know right youve heard that one before wasting   away to nothing no we've been eating like kings  here they have been hooking us up like a [Music] brother wow my mouth is on fire than you  than but it's doubl down because the soup   is actually it's spicy but it's also like super  hot right now so when you double down burn in   your mouth mix in with a little spice yeah be  careful though well almost made it through two   Entre but uh that spice I'm going to have to pay  for tomorrow but food here was quite delish but   it was the views that really pulled us in so  that's all for today we will see you in the AM I'm not in any typical tourist spot that most  people go to like Bangkok or the islands where   I'm at is actually on the land border Highland  right here and Lao just a few 100 m away that   is the country of Lao right along here and  this is Thailand let me show you something   ain't nobody here but those chicken but so we  have just arrived to a very exotic place and   your probably wondering why would you come up  to the Border well if you look here we are at   the Golden Triangle if we zoom out a little  bit you're going to see why it's called the   triangle keep going and boom Myanmar Burma LA and  Thailand we are just meters away from the Golden   Triangle now right when you walk up to here  you have an incredible welcoming with these   vast best golden colors elephants which here  they're known as Chong I believe an elephant in   Thai and you can actually climb up to the top  and take a photo there wao rock and roll the Queens the Queens well I think it would only  make sense for me to do a little hike on up   and see what it looks like from above all right  we got a staircase leading between the elephants   and this gets us up to ah at the top hello hello  not a bad spot to hang out and relax if you if I   can say so myself looking g o mhm I'd say that's a  pretty cool little tourist attraction free to walk   up grab a photo and from here we can see La much  much closer now I didn't show this before but La   has a ton of development on their side when  when I first started this video we were way   way down there and I actually thought this was  on the Thailand side but actually no we've got   the huge area we're going to check out here the  huge Buddha right there oh the coconut addicts   have gotten themselves a coconut yum yum thinking  about getting one too what are they charging for   a coconut these days 40 big ones all right I'll  have one all right let's hook a brother up one   more please all right two more two more coconuts  got you guys we we've got the coconut addicts here   coconut all right crop [ __ ] cop cop Co cop Coco  cococ Coco Coco coconut I want to be your coconut   that dripping Elish all right and that is number  that is oh nice and cl all right copor cup all   right so here we are coming up to the Golden  Triangle right here and the reason being if   we come a little closer you can see obviously we  are walking on Thailand soil right here across the   road right there is Lao and Myanmar if you look  straight this way I believe maybe where those red   roofs are if the River cuts through here Myanmar  would be on the other side and so it all meets   right at this point pretty wild to be this close  to two completely different civilizations although   there's going to be what do you think of this  place beautiful I am I'm pretty shocked I don't   know you've never been uh you've never been at a  corner where you can see three countries at once   have you no think that's my first time so it's  really cool to see and if there's one thing in   Thailand that stuck out to you most uh so far we  have a lot left to explore is there anything I   think just the life style here is really cool once  you adapt to it and you know you take the scooter   and you cruise around and just such a different  lifestyle from what we're used to you know driving   fast and cars and you know this fast lifestyle  this work you have to go to work you have to sleep   work repeat yeah eat sleep work repeat and here  you're just more like relaxed you're you're living   every day as if it's your last you know what I  mean oh I like that well said well said exactly   here it really pushes you to experience life  relax have fun and find many reasons to enjoy to enjoy one I've never seen that opium written  with bushes that's one of a kind do that in this is unlike any other Temple I've ever  seen in the world look at this thing 50% of   the bench is given up to this guy looks a little  scary must be hot in the sun right now wow and   what do we have going on here whiskey in  front and a bit of a Halloween feel when   you're walking up Alien versus Predator right  there so we're entering the wa Ron [ __ ] and   it's 100 bot which is about $2.80 and we got  to come right through here cupon crop oh looks   like we're only going through one and look at  this right when you walk in and it's informally   known as the white temple I think for quite  obvious reasons but just imagine how long it   would take to make something so intricate we're  going to walk through there and get a little bit   closer here look at this right in front we've  got some koi here swimming around and amazing   Landscaping perfected Landscaping to Accent  this Temple all right we're making our way   over to the uh front entrance looks like we got  a bit of a moat going around here as well with   a dragon spewing out water so this is really an  exotic Place fish filled up the koi fish filled   up in all of these they got blue ones yeah a lot  of koi huh yeah well they look really good with   these I don't mean to be but they cuz you're  looking at life in HD right now with those and   look at this there's hands when you get close  skulls wow I didn't actually realize what this   was representing until we got much closer kind of  like these monster likee fixtures with spikes on them pretty scary look hands all  coming out of here too I don't know look at this we're walking  straight in to the temple what a wild [Music] place and we're coming up to the entrance right  here well you look at this and I think   it's all cement with almost like small  little pieces of glass or mirrors very   intricate detail and they even have the  crowns up on here just truly a place that   is incomparable to anywhere else and this must  be a special entrance cuz the door is all gold here all right and the pathway continues I would  say this is easily the most exotic Temple what   do you think yeah very I love the designs yeah  really exotic here and it just continues all   the way down here a few more looks like levels of  the Temple all the way over here but these temples   don't have the shiny component on the other  side what a quaint little area pretty amazing   huh this is amazing never seen anything like  it nothing like it yeah absolutely nothing like it exactly not not any other place even  in Thailand I could compare it to oh and   I didn't even notice we've got like some  hanging what is that Keys up there ah   yes this is the top ho all the way so it's  essentially looks like keys but when you're   a little closer it's just like almost twice  the thickness of a of like aluminum foil and   it's the shade for all there too oh and all  the way down there over there that's made   out the same wow yeah all the way down there  and then even look at this tree right there   everything about this place is just decorated in  an unrelatable way as we walk through here we're seeing the other View and over here we've got the cave of art so  I have a feeling we're going to find a pretty   interesting setup over here now this as you can  tell is probably man-made as we look over here   we've got waterfalls coming through yeah this  is truly a work of art to blend art with nature ah you can feel a nice little Mist too coming off   oh looks like we got to toss  some money right there don't we that's a good sign we made all three  of our wishes on one hopefully that comes   true look at there are faces with money  filled mixed into the rocks as well that   is wild anybody who's tripping would be having  a pretty intense time right now as you can see   we've we're in front of a golden house right  here which is truly a oneof a kind perfected   Landscaping here where these are almost like  a flat surface with these bushes leading up   with some golden areas in here and the whole  house is customized in ways I have never seen   before it's always cool to come to a place  that it's like the first to ever experience   especially cuz I've been to Thailand a couple  times before and had never seen anything this impressive and so that's where we're going to  wrap up today's video I really hope you guys have   enjoyed coming with us to explore the Northwestern  side of Thailand this area is truly a paradise and   I could have easily spent a couple weeks just  exploring so much deeper into this massive area   I will mention that this trip that we did is not  necess necessarily mapped out in the fastest and   most efficient way to get from each location that  we showed in this video so make sure if you're   going to be visiting all of these places and more  you map them out to do them in the most efficient   possible order so yeah guys was an amazing trip  and thank you so much for watching today's video   we'll have a couple more videos coming out on  Thailand so we will see you in the next one
