Hey! I'm Chris and I'm an English expat who has spent most of his adult life living and traveling outside of my home country.
Rather than doing the usual mid-life crisis thing of buying myself and motorbike or a sports car, I bought myself some camera equipment and started sharing my travel experiences with the world.
I hope to bring a different perspective to many of the (great!) younger vloggers out there as I travel to places both old and new to me.

KOLKATA - Why I LOVED This Awesome Indian City!
Kolkata (কলকাতা), previously known as Calcutta, is an India megacity that I knew little about before going.
It quickly became close to my heart and spending my time with a local family helped to truly get a small taste of the real Kolkata.
Come along and join me for my final stop in India on this trip!

b*haries are invading the bengali city kolkata, overpopulating
Plz New town visit 🎉🎉
Hopefully some day!
"Cal" is v special...thanks for the video...
It sure is!
our identity is under threat from North Indian hegemonic supremacist system, so i cannot thank you enough for showcasing Kolkata to the world ❤
This video was shot probably in summer, April 2024.
Spot on!
আমরা কি ভালো , আমাদের কোলকাতা কি ভালো , সব কটা সাহেব আমাদের ভালো বলে যায় , কিন্তু আমাদের দেশের লোকেরাই এই জায়গা টা কে নোংরা ,খানাখন্দ বাম্প এ ভরা রাস্তা , রাস্তায় গাড়ি বাইক থামিয়ে তোলাবাজি , নোংরা জামাকাপড় পরা লোকের ভিড় , সব পাবলিক প্লেস occupy করে বাজার বসানো ইত্যাদির সাথে অ্যাসোসিয়েট করে কি গালাগাল টাই না দেয় ।
You missed out on the newest part of Kolkata called the New Town with biggest urban park called the ECO Park, Biswa Bangla gate and Mother's wax museum, a totally different and chilled vibe. That area is also considered the first smart city area of India. 😊
I wish I had more time there as I said in the video. There was no way I could see everything but at least I had the chance to have a different, more local experience in a way.
@ChrisKermis If you ever decide a revisit to our beloved City of Joy, kindly contact me, I'll be happy to show you around and introduce you to the varied cuisine of my city. 🙏
Thank you 🙏🏽
👍
Anyone complaining about Chris' assessment doesn't seem to be a well-traveler or understand the basic fundamentals of economics. The Instagramers are Instaflating tourism. Chris this helped a lot! Thank you!
The dirty side is the Hawra city outside of Kolkata.
absolutely loved ur video, wish u would have visited salt lake sec v, newtown and rajarhat. these places are not only one of the most mordern and well planned places in india, but in whole asia.
Thank you. I wish I had more time there but someday I must return
India is an awesome country if you have enough money to spend.
finally one very unassuming european , zero bias , wants to see and learn .. a pure traveller ... well done chris , great video of a place that i call home and i come back to regularly to enjoy
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed my video of what quickly became one of my favourite Indian cities
India looks nightmare...
Did you try the local food? Maybe check out a festival?
Absolutely! Aside from what I tried in this video I do love a good curry and I certainly had plenty of those
Nice ❤ 😊 ❤️ From 🇱🇰 Ambassador car 😅
زرت تونس أكتر من أربع مرات, حاليا نخطط نمشي للجزائر إن شاء الله وبعدها بنسافر للمغرب, تحياتي من ليبيا ❤
Come to Ecuador 🇪🇨 next I’ll show you around
I would love to some day!
Did you hire someone to drive the car?
Yes, I had very little time so I hired a guide with a car
You look like Anjan Dutt, he is a Bengali actor, director and rock musician. He acted in Mrinal Sen movie Chaalchitra (1981) and won best actor award at Venice Film Festival. I also love his songs like Bela Bose, Ranjana Ami Rashbona, Mary Ann. He has also directed movies like Dutta vs Dutta and Madlee Bengali. He is really talented and I was thrilled to see him in Haami 2
Wow, sounds like I should be pretty happy to be compared to him!
FYI the only China Town in India is located in Kolkata or Calcutta.
Wow interesting! I wish I knew that when I was there and visited
@ChrisKermis next time when you come let me know. I would love to host you. If you need suggestions or any type of help then please contact me. I don't want money but I want you to have a very good experience in India.
@Omnitaku7 Thank you 🙏🏽 I always have a good experience traveling in India, it’s been 3 times now. It can be tough sometimes, but it is enriching.
@@ChrisKermis yeah it will change. At least I am seeing some changes already because of our economic growth. We are just like China in 1990.
Romanians don't speak russian/moldavian/bulgarian at all, neither the old people who are 90-100 years old, trust me. Some of us speak hungarian, iddish and turkish in some areas such as Transilvania, Bucharest and Dobrogea.

Any country you go to and u go on a long excursion, they usually do stop u at places where u can use the toilets or to buy coffee tea or something to eat whether they make alot of money or not shouldn't be an issue for u or any1 😊
Those ambassadors used to be everywhere when I started going to India back in 94. Will be a shame to see them disappear but I imagine they are quite polluting. Love Calcutta. One of my favourite cities in India.
True indeed. Yeah it really was a surprise to me, I turned up not really knowing anything about it and just thinking about my onward travel but really enjoyed it. Sometimes it's nice just to go in blind and discover.
@@ChrisKermis Really like the video you made! There is so much more to see. I definitely need to go back. It can be a bit overwhelming at times, the amount of people. I went to the flower market early in the morning, and it wasn't as busy as it shows in your video, although it could just depend on the day perhaps.
@@matthewmorris7510 do you live in India? You have a great understanding of India that's why I am asking?
I was in Chinatown yesterday und also Talat Noi. 70% of the people in Talat Noi are Tourists. the run to all 'the hotspots' (instagram, RUclips) with there phones, make a photo, looked at Google Maps, Make a photo and so on... Sometimes I think, they don't even know, what City they are in 🤔 and when people like you, continue to advertise, this district will be just as broken as many other places in world. I know what I'm talking about, I visit Bangkok for the first time in the 80s.
Thanks for the warning.
Spot on. We come here often. My family lives here. I just spend time with them and don't go out at all.
Fascinating journey. You're an exceptional tour guide.
Kamala Harris woz ear
That was a mind blowing experience seeing the video of Kolkata. So much variation you showed from the fantastic buildings and well kept gardens to back to reality and the hustle and bustle of every day life in India. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing everything and look forward to seeing your next holiday.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! It was a great and unexpected experience in Kolkata
Wow man, what a nice video again, it's been a while!👍
Glad you liked it and sorry I've been gone for a while. Had to take a bit of a break but I'm back now and working on the next one already 😊
Looking happy, if somewhat thin. Follow your Bliss. 👋
Cheers!
The Dutch get their name for Turkey ( kalkoen ) from Kolkata ( whereas we get ours from, er, Turkey )
errr
Sounds legit
Uhh no, Kalkoen was what the Dutch called the city of Calicut ( present day Kozhikode in the state of Kerala)
Regards of Argentina...maybe a bit slow to show better your video.
Cheers, I had to take a little time out from RUclips but now I’m back!
Morocco is amazing
Your videos were the perfect preparation for my trip. We weren’t sure if we would fine the way up the hill. Thanks to playing your video simultaneously, we made it 🙏🏼
Good to hear!
Looks like Weston-Super-Mare with camels instead of donkeys.
🤣
Sfaxians are very very kind people. They are modest and welcoming. They always had the best scores of high school graduation because for them education is sacred Undoubtedly they have the best cooking in whole Tunisia. Bless their hearts !
What a beautiful work Chris. Thank tou. You also had an amazing guide ❤ explore mkre and share more.
Thank you 🙏🏽 I was so lucky to have amazing people to guide me and show me the true Varanasi
I was confronted for taking photos of buildings (non religious), and with no people in range. I couldn't understand a word he was saying but he was hitting my camera quite hard with his fist, which to be honest was putting me in fight mode. I wasn't sure if I was going to end up surrounded or if the police would have automatically taken his side? But I became just equally as angry after he started hitting my camera. I thought it was for the best if I just walked away and he didn't follow me. Even more confusing was that I'd had many locals having fun photobombing my photos and also asking me to take their picture in which I emailed to them.
Great advice. I have been living in Morocco for 3 years.
Very interesting and useful, liked the video a lot. Just one thing I found disturbing, is complaining about overpricing, for paying a € 4 or 5 more, come on.
I'm coming in February 2025 7 nights from Monday 10th February staying at marhaba club hotel how far is all of this from marhaba club hotel please
What a crap. Badically ALL (!!!!!!) he blah-blahs about is wrong. Very wrong! Totally wrong! After 35 visits to the country, I believe I know better than this dull Paps!
Total rubbish what your talking !! I am here now in agadir november 2024 , beach dirty ! They have no machine to clean the beach and rubbish everywhere.

Old people walking down the street getting hassle from sellers and buggers. You are misleading the public . Stop it now .
That was not my experience.
So cool.
