    Another fabulous video from my favourite RUclips channel. I watched all of this one twice already 😂. I've been (Im) patiently waiting for this one. Seriously I would watch the 2 hour and 8 hour ones if you posted them. The editing wouldn't worry me one little bit, probably more interesting without the editing tbh. My favourite parts of all your videos are when you stop and go somewhere unplanned, check it out, do a tour and ask prices, view menus etc. Makes me feel like its me doing it as that's what I do and it gives me so many ideas (and hopes) for when we finally get to travel again. Absolutely love your videos and this is one of my favourites. Thank you so much for doing these it's really appreciated and I cannot wait for more. Enjoy your day.

  • @stevejeffrey7948
    @stevejeffrey7948 3 года назад +3

    I drove that road twice a week for 4 months to take my brother in law from Nakhon Si Thammrat to a witch doctor in Donsak.
    Initially I was amazed at how much your vlog shows it has changed then realised I was rembering over 20 years ago.
    I almost bought a house at the south end of Sichon beach. When you drove past on the road it looked like a bungalow but it was 4 stories tall down the cliff, had an elevator on the side and all for 1.5 million baht. I thought about it for a month or two and decided to buy it. I went back in the rainy season and the cliff had eroded taking the house with it.

    I'm definitely going to ride the exact route you have just posted.
    Some truly stunning locations. Just peace and quiet. Really great video thank you. Watched so many of your amazing videos.

      Thx PJ Mac. Amidst the news of the 3rd wave here, yesterday AZ announced they'll have a local vax production facility running here soon and estimates 16 million jabs starting in June & ramping up from there. Other promising news is if Phuket, Samui & others can secure more jabs, the proposed 'sandbox' may yet open for already vaxxed travellers. So fingers crossed!

      Both teams are suffering but at least I can live vicariously through you and your Chanel. I am hoping for a November Thai trip but it’s looking 50/50. I have 1 vaccine and will have 2 by august so let’s hope🙏🙏
