    I’m glad that Bald brought this channel to my attention. I love the raw feel. That’s my favorite. I want to see the menial things while traveling. The stopping to get a drink or just look at nothing in particular. Too many travel vloggers think they’re making a glossy television travel show. They take out all of the little things, and just show the edited highlights. But I want to see real life on the road.

      I didnt find Ben through Bald....it was either through Harold Baldr (?spelling) or Kurt Caz. Ben and Ben jive well, but backpacker Ben has his own style and flavor in life and it shows in his videos. I felt like he was stifled by Bald a bit.
      No hate, I love Bald, he is an OG in these type of vids too.

    Some balut is better than others. The ideal age is 18 days, but some prefer it earlier or later. A duck egg takes 28-32 days to hatch.
    The development of those feathers might mean you got a 20 or more day old balut.

    I had a science teacher in 7th grade from the Philippines. She taught at my rural middle school, which had a majority Hispanic/White population. I once walked up to her to ask about Balut because I learned about it online and wanted to see if she tried it. When I asked her about it, her face lit up, and she was surprised I knew about it. She said it was one of her favorite dishes and missed it greatly. Disgusting to some, but many people from the Philippines really like it; definitely an acquired taste.
