    The intro was epic. If you can spend $20 in Tulum, y’all did great. The butt sweat was so funny that totally soaked the spot you sat on. BTW…when you mentioned after your nap and Pavarti giggled…must be hanky-panky off camera…lol. Enjoying your vlog! 👍

    In a world where the people have an inherent urge to spend huge money to have fun, you do it in the right way. That's the real essence of travel in my opinion.

    Are you kidding me??!!! This was FANTASTIC!! So many little parts that made me actually LOL. Meditating, looking over at Parvi with one eye...we've all done that! The butt sweat...ugh, too many times to count. The music, editing, including locals, along with travelers, the food but the hitchhiking?? Although they looked very nice, so did Ted Bundy. Don't let your mamma know you did that. :) Oh, loved Parvi's outfit. You two are a great team and look forward to the next one.

    • @Monkeyabroad
      @Monkeyabroad  3 года назад

      I'm NOT kidding you!! The hitchhiking was safe though, I promise! It's a very public road with slow traffic

    Kevin, that is awesome that you can not only speak fluent Mandarin Chinese but also know Spanish as well. It is good that you are diverse, and embrace other cultures and languages since not only are you being respectful by doing so, it also brings people together.

    Great video! Would love to see more than one a week. Questions and comments... how do you handle grooming such as shaving and shampooing? What was the. Between your companions eyebrows? I really like the fact that you carried the cup over from the previous videos. Keep doing this please a nice addition. I noticed when you mentioned taking a midday nap your companion was giggling I can only guess why! And lastly, what did you do with the last six pesos? Perhaps give them to the gentleman that was cooking his meal?

    • @Monkeyabroad
      @Monkeyabroad  3 года назад +1

      Maybe in the future we'll get 2x a week published. As for your questions: I shower like anyone else, and shave with a mach3 razor (best there is). The dot was a joke, making fun of all the hippie/yoga people in Tulum (Tuluminati's). The cup is actually the star of each episode, stay tuned. Last six pesos, I kept for myself to spend on another day. Thanks for watching!

    Tulum is a safe town for tourists and incidents of violent crime here are few and far in-between, especially compared to the rest of the country. But when violent crime does happen here, it's usually related to drugs. If you're traveling solo, avoid going to secluded places at night.

You presented my queries the information in an illustrative way that I was seeking in an ideal and well-mannered way. Later in the day, I gave a presentation to my son on how it is done.

    Great travel videos for $20 a day! I am glad to see the channel is BACK. Must have been a financial decision by the channel owner. Previously, he stated, on taking the channel in a NEW direction. Like I have said before, "MONEY is at the core of 99.9% of the decisions we make."

Home is where you make it. I just got back but the ruins closed right when we pulled up on our bikes. I was in the hospital the last 2 weeks but I sent you a message about getting back to China! Just insane that you made 20 bucks work staying in tulum. I say go to cozumel...or if you dare. Take her to China and show her how it's done!!! Double dare!!
