The Clueless traveller
Нидерланды
Добавлен 7 авг 2021
Hello and welcome, my name is Jason Reef and I just turned 30. I started this channel just to see where it could take me. My life took some turns as life does and after a pretty bad relationship and losing my job because of Covid I started online teaching. This gave me the freedom to become a digital nomad and I am still testing this out more and more.
Next to that I live with my dad who had a stroke 2 years ago, I keep an eye out for him and try to help him where I can.
I also have my own health issues, for 10 years already I have an unknown problem which basically makes me feel sick / nauseos 24/7. I wake up with it, I go to sleep with it. Therefor eating for me has become Russian roulette, I never know what may happen or how my body reacts, even water sometimes can make me feel bad.
After suffering from this for years without any solution in sight and the time just ticking away I decided that enough is enough and I will just force it. So I travel with my "handicap".

Oahu hikes, what to expect? Exploring 4 completely different hikes to show the options you have.
Aloha! Welcome back again, this video will show the variations in hikes you can find on O'ahu. I didn't do as many as I wished to do but these were the ones I managed to do and they give a glimpse of what to expect.
What do you think of these options? I would like to go back one day and see more. But for now this is what I could do.

Hey Jason! Love your content. Heading over in December. What did you think re Haleakala vs the volcanoes on the big island? Family is going to Maui and we aren’t sure about spending some of our time on big island or staying in Maui. Thanks!!
You didn't get your money back because all rentals here on Maui say they are not allowed on dirt roads. You are on inherited land, and locals don't like unexpected visitors.
one of the biggest rules when visiting hawai'i, stay on DESIGNATED trails with signs. this specific part of Maui you shouldn't even drive through so PLEASE do ur research beforehand next time:/
you went through Kahakaloa ofc you're gonna get your car broken into. next time please do ur research and stop trying to frolick everywhere you please in Hawai'i.
Iao Valley…not Ioa…
ooh shoot! thanks mate!
Aloha Jason, this was a wow! video, with wow scenery, wow waterfalls. Thank you so much for us who can't travel. You are so amazing, loving nature and creatures and rainbows. Sending you greetings from the Sunshine Coast, Australia
Mahalo for Sharing my Hm Town and Up Bringing on This Island call the BIG Island of Hawaii 🏝. After my Teenagers Years Id Traveled to The Mainland! Told my Self Im Getting off this ROCK ISL 😅. Just Being in California , San Francisco , St Louis M. NJ. New York ! Made Me Realize I was so Fortunate Growing Up , Green Fields , Fresh Fruits on Trees , Open Pastures , Rivers , Oceans , Climbing Trees ect . While Seating having Lunch at New York Cities and Watching kids , Teens Playing on Cement Concrete Streets and Builded Arround there Surroundeds. Made me Feel Hmsick 🥲. But Was Great Workings , Meeting People While Traveled for 20 yrs! 🫂👥️️👤👣 But like We all Say 👉 THERES NO PLACES LIKE HM.Came b Back and Brought Myself a 🏡🏝🏞🌄🌅🗻🌋⛰️❤😉😊👍🏻🤙.
Wow that's amazing! You seem to have had a heck of life, but there is nothing better than home ;). I am happy you enjoyed it
I really love the drone shot, stunning shots kid !!!
The Zimbabwean side is just incredible! You get to view the Falls from different angles n the side walks n view points are wide enough to accommodate many people so it doesn't feel overly crowded! But yes the fee for tourists is a bit excessive... Thank you for visiting 🇿🇼🙌🏾
Yes that's true, you have more ways to look at it. The Zambia side is more adventurous I think. No problem it was my pleasure!
@thecluelesstraveller Yes I agree, the Zambian side has the knife-edge bridge n devil's pool..more adventurous 👍🏾
So as off 2013 Moana Loa is NOT considerd the tallest anymore but now it's Mt.Lam Lam in Guam, I don't think Hawaii has accepted this fact yet and therefor they still spread this fact. Thanks to @brienmacgearailt7801
I like the fact that you didn't let a little rain stop you from exploring! Cheers.
Well I am Dutch so we are used to the rain haha, we bike through it every time. But yeah travel doesn't always mean clear skies everyday and you have to use your days so you have to become creative! But sometimes it can be a challenge
Wrong.....Mt.Lam Lam in Guam is higher from base Marianas trench.
You are right, I guess Hawaii hasn't accepted this fact yet haha, I see that they discovered this in 2013. Moana Loa is still the most massive active volcano though. Thanks for the correction! together we all become a little less clueless
Just last week a 76 yo gentleman was rescued by helicopter at Red Sand beach. Every month someone is rescued there. depletes local rescue services. Best to stay out of area. To locals it is Kapu. Don't ask directions to there from locals, they will tell you to piss off or worse.
Oh really? I had no idea, didn't see any signs about it to be fair. It seemed pretty normal to go to. Generally they have big signs but not always so it's hard to know where these areas are sometimes. As far as I have understood they resort to violence sometimes which is a bit extreme in my opinion.
@@thecluelesstraveller Being a very isolated village, Hana locals are very protective of their resources, particularly Hana. Hana is the most isolated village in the whole state and the largest population of Kanaka Maoli. So many reasons to protect and cherish. Aloha!
Ah right ok, that's interesting. I thought it was Niihau. They should put some signs there maybe, it's also mentioned online everywhere as a tip to go there so I had no idea
i'm not even watching your video, I'm here to comment on your dumb, clickbait thumbnail. Mauna Loa - Elevation: 13,803' Everest - Elevation: 29,032′ lol Base to top, means fk all.
If you watched the video you understand that it's true and advertised by Hawaii even so.... nothing click bait just facts
Clueless says it all..lol
Ok? explain please... Something obvious for 1 person isn't for the other of course. We are all here to learn
Still haven't learned anything from your feedback so keen to eleborate? Or just here to be negative to people without reason?
@@thecluelesstraveller when traveling you shouldn't be so clueless. ask locals questions & do your research
Obviously if you don't consider sea level, you morons.
At least someone paid attention haha
Talking about driving crazier whilst filming and talking to a camera is funny
We learn how to drive stick shift and have one of the hardest driving exams in the world, Americans would need to redo the exam here because theirs isn't sufficient here. I know how to drive. So driving an automatic on these roads is peanuts. And of course I do it when it's safe
@@thecluelesstraveller the exact kind of attitude that causes accidents. Have fun in your complacency, Mr holier than thou lmfao
I have driven in multiple countries, I always pay attention, I never drink. I know how to adapt. Has nothing to do wtih "holy" or not. In this case traffic was slowed down and I had time to fillm. Simple as that
@thecluelesstraveller complete disregard for the laws because you have driven in other places and don't drink? Brother you need to introspect a little
I never disregarded the law anywhere?? I know myself and that's all I am going to say, I dont have to defend myself to anybody. You are over reacting or looking for an unnecessary fight. I am here for positivity and learning together. I take your comment as advice and thank you for it.
George Harrison had a waterfront estate somewhere near Hana and spent a lot of time there. I knew a guy who worked at an auto dealership in Kahului years ago, who had the pleasure of driving George back to his home after he'd dropped off his car for service. Imagine having a 2 hour long private chat with a Beatle in your car? He said he was a very unpretentious guy. You know you could have just put some of your drinking water in the wiper fluid reservoir and buy more drinking water in Hana. A cheap immediate fix. Too bad you get car sick, that Hana Highway is amazing. The way you went you drove right by Charles Lindburgh's grave.
Wow that would be such a unique experience! I know that many celebrities live there so I guess the chances are high to meet one. Yeah I know but I reckoned I was almost there anyway so I just waited. Yes for me such things wouldn't be enjoyable because I am just to focused on getting through and out of it and not on looking around. Once I took a boat tour to watch dolphines and I took my pill to late and in the end we did see many dolphins but the biggest memory I have is just how bad I wanted to get of that boat, I couldn't enjoy the dolphins. So I learned that it's not worth it when you feel bad, you can't enjoy it. Yes I knew it was somewhere there but I didn't have time anymore to look for it.
George Harrison's place is still owned by his family in lower Nihiku. The place is immaculate and yes right on the ocean with amazing waterfalls during rain storms. It's an amazing place!
Jim Neighbors had a place in Hana. Also Kris Kristopherson still lives in Hana. Has a nice house on the mountain. He's still kicking!
That's cool! I didn't know that
Yeah I read about the famous people living around there! pretty cool but I also heard about all the housing prices spiking up and ordinary Hawaiians not being able to live there anymore
Report him to Airbnb. You were sharing a bathroom with someone who injects himself? The yelling and the whispering. Do your fellow travelers a favor and report him. He will have to clean up his act or get kicked off the Airbnb platform. None of this is the fault of the traveler. If you left right when the troubled started Airbnb would have refunded you. The guy needs to know how to run a hospitality business. He probably get paid by the government to house that guy. Choose one or the other Mr. Owner, hospitality or rehab center.
I gave the owner the benefit of the doubt and I didn't want to leave again and pack my stuff etc, the other stuff I noticed during the rest of the week and yeah if I would have known before I wouldn't have stayed there but I figured I need a place to work and that the rest of the day I would just be away. The owner told me he just started to rent out that particular room and normally doesn't do that. He has only good reviews on Airbnb for the other unit in the front. So I reckoned it wasn't malicious or anything. And I didn't want to be that person that leaves and says "yeah all was fine" and slam him with a nasty review afterwards. So what I did was leave a normal review on the platform but I left him a personal message and honest opinion and feedback, so he can improve. I want to give people a chance to improve. So maybe he did something with the advice who knows. I am not here to judge anybody
Where did you snorkel please?
Basically Wailea area but this was Mokapu beach for example
I would contact Airbnb and skipped out of that place to be honest. Since you've commented about car culture in America vs where you are from Europe I would be interested in your take as to why that is. To me I haven't been to Europe but I have been to Japan and love the public transport there (at least in the major cities as rural places generally need a car) and I think the zoning in America is a big problem. In Japan you can easily walk to a convenience store / drug store / doctors office and all kinds of commercial businesses within a neighborhood. In America that basically never happens. Instead you have huge sections almost entirely dedicated to residential housing and then huge areas for commercial businesses. The only cities I've been to in the US with what I consider good public transport to potentially make a car not needed are San Fran and New York- Manhattan. Both are geographically restricted and hence have a fairly population dense area great for public transport. To a lesser degree Seattle has a somewhat decent although more limited system. America also seems much more spread out and rural. Take your trip to Hawaii for example- was either location you stayed at within 30 minutes of a major grocery store/drug store? Probably not and those are most likely several hundreds of thousand dollar homes.
Yeah I gave it the benefit of the doubt because I just got there and didn't want to change immediatly. But it was definitely strange the whole week. I left him a very honest long feedback but not a negative public one. I want to give people the chance to improve and not be this kind of person that walks away and says "all was good" and smack them with a negative review online.
I think the USA is not very clear on it's own rules many times and they are to flexible with the rules. Taking right turns on red?? very dangerous because it's a window where 2 lanes could meet, aka accident potential. Also on the motorway they can overtake left right or the middle, to me it's like American roulette, Here that's very illegal. You only overtake on the left and that's it. Next to that the teenage drivers learn driving with their parents, they get their licenses as if it was in a Kellogs box. Then there is the customisation stuff, what is this? Disney land? Driving a car is serious, all these crazy things make it dangerous and look more like a game maybe. And yes walkability is non existend in the USA, I also caught myself driving from one car park to another where I would normally just walk that bit. It doesn't invite walking at all.
It's unfortunate that the match wasn't better but so long as both sides can learn from it all is not lost. That snorkel spot you spoke of 2-step is indeed a very good spot but it is not appropriate if you are not at least an average swimmer or with someone who is as it isn't a "stand up" if you need kind of spot. In fact it's not too hard to swim out a little and be in deep blue water where you cannot see the bottom despite it being clear water.
Yeah it was a lesson to be learned for sure. But still I enjoyed that house and the nights were great, geckos all around you. Oh yeah I people would definitly under estimate it ver easily. I made this mistake years ago where I swam to far towards the end of the little bay and was to tired to swim back. I swam on my back and thought I woudnt make it. So I learned my lesson haha!
Aloha Jason, interesting vlog. I enjoyed the lava fields, somehow I find them fascinating. As for the rain, I must, tell you here on the Sunshine Coast has been raining on and off for the last two year. We had about ten days of Sunshine and it was lovely but now it's raining again. As for the Air B&B it's not pleasant to have such experience, but since you paid you couldn't walk away. That Hippie town reminds me of Byron Bay back in the 80s. I loved the shrine that you came across. How long have you stayed in Hawaii?
Oh really? Yeah some places are more unpredictable right? The same here back in NL. Our summer had a very slow start this year. heaps of rain! I heard about Byron bay indeed . The airbnb thing was weird but I can adapt and I left honest feedback for them to change it.
Mount Everest height is 80991
You have a typo in there buddy...I think you might have meant 8,991 meters. The recognized height is: Source: Britanica In December 2020 China and Nepal jointly declared that the height of Everest was 29,031.69 feet (8,848.86 meters)
Yes Moana Loa is higher measured from the sea floor. That's why they claim that
@@thecluelesstraveller "If you change the rules, I win!"
haha yes exactly!
Aloha Jason, another great episode. Thank you. Tell me how long did you stay in Hawaii?. You sure did a lot of filming. And did you housesit the whole time you were there? Keep well.
Thanks, yes I was there for 2,5 months. Yeah I was a bit ambitious indeed haha. No I did that a total of 2 months
I just went and there was no pink water. Maybe it depends on the time of year, hmm
Yes I heard it was quite rare actually but very cool. Also you wouldn't even see it very well by just driving past it. I was tipped off about it
@thecluelesstraveller no I parked and went on the bridge walked alllll the way down and no pink water. So yeah maybe just during a certain time of year. Friends of mine are going in October let's see what the levels of algie are then. Thanks for your reply 🤩
Yeah it was a rare moment indeed but maybe if you are lucky it comes back again ;)
I am a Motswana from Botswana and I would advise you to be careful ALWAYS around elephants as they are erratic and dangerous.
Yes I kept my distance, I didn't want to be that tourist that got crushed by elephants haha, thanks for the advice
Areas are kapu for a reason, mate! You trespassing like an idiot! You are lucky you didn’t get shot!!
How is someone supposed to know this if there are no signs? There was nothing saying "Kapu" it was just open and abandoned. Why would I get shot?! I am just walking around lol. What kind of logic is that??
@@thecluelesstraveller Rule #1 - Consider ALL AREAS not marked for "recreation or hiking" as kapu! Were you in a National, State or Local park just "walking around" or were you in areas NOT marked as such? #2 - Even if you are in a National, State or Local Rec/park area, THERE ARE RULES about not straying off designated paths, cleaning your footwear, etc. Rule #3 - No one owns the beach/water, even if their house is along the shore, they do not own the beach/water. Feel free to visit the beaches, but mind the designated beach access points. This ain't rocket science, mate!
Αloha Jason, you did a great job of the whole Hawaii series. Big thank you from Australia. Oh, I am glad you didn't fall into a sinkhole.
Yes it's so versatile isn't it? Amazing place!
Bruh, you can't just drive where you want or go where you want. This is common knowledge even if you live here. You don't just come up and explore whatever you want to. You MUST ask permission or show respect. Do not ever cross kanaka, you should have done more research or had common courtesy to not do any of what you did. Maui must be respected you're lucky no one jumped you. Be careful to those who come here, even us residents don't just go where we want. We show aloha
Well normally you can unless signs tell you otherwise. There were no signs here, nothing mentioned. I didn't see any "Kapu" sign. It was an abandoned area which was once commercially used I think, something touristic maybe I don't know. So if it was holy or something it wouldn't have been used like that in the first place, there was also garbage everywhere and broken down cars so that doesn't look like a holy place to me otherwise why would you treat it like that? This was just a case of some hoodlems seeing an opportunity and showing the common problem around the island of break ins unfortunately. And btw is being jumped accepted? So in otherwords violence is excused when you accidentally go somewhere? I followed all the rules during my stay on the island and respected and learned about the culture as much as possible.
@thecluelesstraveller it doesn't matter if anything is holy. This is a lesson for all tourists, don't come unless you can respect the island. Like I said as a resident, you don't just walk wherever you want. Even being in shared spaces with locals you must show respect and ask if you can be there. There are plenty of public spaces not marked that you must ask and be kind because of the locals. It's the way it is here, if you don't like it, get jumped then idk. Crime exists everywhere but when you come here and just assume you can wonder into unmarked roads, yikes....you'll end up hurt or worse. Be careful next time you're here, I would never ever ever just go where I wanted and I've been here a very long time.
@thecluelesstraveller and absolutely you can get jumped and cops will not help you. I promise. It's why ppl move off island, cause if you cross someone they can do what they want it's their land. I've been told this first hand by mpd
I came and made friends and nobody told me about these things, that I had to ask permission? Never heard anybody telling me this, I generally had zero problems on Hawaii, this was the only one. Just about the break in problems. I respected everything and everybody but you can't expect people to magicially know this if there aren't any signs. So it's justified to use violence if someone just walks somewhere? Interesting logic...
Again I haven't heard anything about this or had any warnings about it. This is a very flawed logic and cavemen mentality. violence is never the answer, if you just talk to someone and tell them they would leave, very simple. If someone walks into an area where they aren't supposed to be someone just tells them and they leave. Simple as that because we live in a modern society and not use words over violence. So even the police admitting this is very worrisome. Culture doesn't excuse violence. So thanks for pointing it out but it's sad if it works likes this.
That side of this island? And your driving down random roads? You're in the middle of the pacific on a far corner of an island. There's a history. Your weren't in America at that point.
The road itself is the coastal road around Maui, so that's just a regular road. I just parked it right next to this road that starts a dirt track which I walked a bit. What history you mean? It looked like an abandoned area which was once used for something commercial.
Yeah, obviously a history of defiling the landscape with old cars. Let me guess, your ancestors are buried under an old Buick?
this dude lucky he didnt get mugged or killed by looters or homeless or criminals who you probably are in their "chopshop" area.....they not going hurt you......they just going to FATALLY injure you!
Why would people do this? I have done nothing wrong
The Zambian side does it for me.. the adventure is something I can't miss on..❤❤ Zim is awesome on its on too. I'm just happy we share the false.
Yeah right? for me it was the same indeed :). I am happy you enjoyed it
Aloha Jason!! Love ❤this vlog. It's got everything, lovely waterfalls, beautiful scenery and the town with the murals is amazing, without the massive tourism and the noise. Thank for taking me there 😊
Yes it's pretty amazing isn't it!
Thanks for visiting our country Namibia.
It was my pleasure!
Aloha Jason, another amazing hike and snorkeling. Thank you. You saying you are working while you are housesitting. What kind of work do you do?
Yes I am a digital nomad, I teach Dutch and English online. So I can do it where ever I want
Aloha Jason, very nice. You go into a lot of trouble to video your travels in Hawaii. I am sorry not many people don't know about your travels. It would be good to have some comments. As I said previously they places where you visit are so similar with North Queensland, Australia. As the say here ants indicate rains. Go well, and keep safe.
Yes everything comes with time. The system is not easy to pop out in but patience is key ;)
@@thecluelesstraveller you are very calm and patient person. Your dad is so lucky to have you in his life.
How many times you have to mention your are European
It was a compilation of many weeks into 1 video. So maybe it looked like that. But I think Americans do that same thing in Europe so I don't see the problem really. It's just for comparison and showing different persepctives. Not particularly negative
Aloha Jason, I made a cup of tea and watched this lovely video with joy. I admire your attitude, you are so cooool. I didn't understand what was expected of you and I am sorry that you didn't fulfill the hosts expectations. My impressions are very positive; I love the house, very comfortable with amazing views. I loved the pets too. (shame about the blind one). I also loved the place (felt at home, as I live on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland Australia) I found the sacred area fascinating. I love all your videos as they are long enough to get a good feel of the place. I hope more people can get to see them. Keep well Jason
Thanks a lot! I appreciate it very much. Yes there are definitly similarities with Sunshine coast. the culture is very interesting right?

Aloha Jason, the Hawaiian series were so good. I am glad to see some Hula dancers too. And so nice to have a look at different locations. Take care Jason and until your next trip be well. 💃👯
stop trying to divide us
Divide who??? I am not dividing people?
This was a great video, you put some boots on the ground to compile all these clips, well done! Also very nice respectful tribute to the fire victims and their town.
Wow what a cool and unique hike. I have done a ton of research on Maui in preparation for our trip in July and I had no idea about this hike. If we were staying longer than 6 days I would definitely add this hike to this itinerary. Really loved the long shot of the windmills down the line, so majestic! Thanks for taking us along!
Oh yeah for 6 days it’s a lot of running around for sure. I hope the weather works for ya. Important is to be flexible and not to forget to enjoy and not to try to push to many things in a day. It’s a bummer you one have 6 days but not impossible. I would do a hike one day and maybe a swim the next. The volcano early or late (sunset sunrise isn’t so different after all). Are you also doing Hana in these 6 days?
@@thecluelesstraveller thanks for the tips! Yes because we are coming from the East Coast (Virginia Beach) we have 2 travel days on the front and 2 travel days on the back, we just bought a business a year ago and unfortunately my husband can’t be away from it longer. We already pushing it with being gone 10 days total. Lol. Since we live at the beach we aren’t really planning a lot of beach time but I do have our itinerary spaced out a bit. I have reservations at Waianapanapa State Park so we will definitely be doing Hana one day, we have a Doors Off Helicopter tour of West Maui and Molokai scheduled another day, planning on doing Haleakala for sunset that same day, going to the Nakalele Blowhole another day, and stopping at Black Rock Beach on the way back so my two sons (ages 17 & 26) can jump from the rock. We have a Luau scheduled one evening, and I have several hikes on my list that we want to do in between. It’s going to be a busy 6 days, but we will more than likely never come back so we want to see as much as we can. But we have all agreed if we need rest and relax time we are all okay with scraping plans last minute. It will certainly be an adventure either way.
Ah right ok that makes sense, when you have your own business every off day is unpaid of course. I have been to the east coast in 2016, it was pretty cool! So you seem to have a tight schedule indeed, crikey! haha The helicopter thing sounds amazing, I mostly skipped on paying for things because it's bloody expensive everywhere. I wanted to show you can also have fun without paying for activities there. Considering the Luau I wouldn't pay for that, there is a big Mall at Wailea (I forgot the name) it's a big luxury mall, you can't miss it. They have 2 Luau nights for free! and also other activities. If you go there you can say hi to friend of mine (if he is there). He works at Martin and MacArthur (it's in a corner at the main square) His name is Joshua, really nice guy and he could definitely give you some tips about Maui or have a drink with him. Anyway it's smart to not over do it indeed. Did you see my car break in video....? It's something to watch out for over there
As a mom to a young adult male I had a lot of anxiety watching this. Lol. Thanks for taking us along on this one, that top waterfall you went to was breathtaking!
Haha yeah men will be men innit ! Haha. We always survive, maybe with a few scratches
My God Jason, this is unreal! How majestic 😍
Hey you! Thanks haha yeah isn’t it gorgeous? I miss it already
G'day Jason, I love all your videos. I find going places with you very relaxing. I admire your easy going personality and how much you care about your dad. Go well Jason
The essence of no worries right? Thanks to dad!
Hey Jason, this a great vlog of your arrival in Australia. I hadn't seen it before but you packed a lot into it. How is your dad? Good I hope. Sending greetings from the Sunshine Coast. Keep well
Oh yeah this feels already ages ago. My first impressions were very special, the country I always heard about but had never seen. He is doing fine just a bit stubborn sometimes as old people are. Haha
Keep going man!! Love you videos <3
Thanks mate! Will do
It gets cold in Kasane, thus the coats and the jackets.
Yes I learned that now. I just didn’t expect that much of a difference. Interesting to learn!
Hi Jason, you sure like putting yourself in some tight spots. Glad you came out of there alive to shows this trail. Are there any snakes? Well, I did enjoy this video and I thank you for taking the time to do. Take care Jason.
Haha yeah but I think many locals do that just on a whim 😂. But it’s definitely a tricky thing to do. No Hawaii has nothing dangerous apart from the giant centipede and sea life.
