    Whether you're a foreigner, a teacher considering moving here, or just curious about life in Myanmar, this video is for you! In addition to showing you all the malls, secret coffee places and where to buy home furnishings I show you where Drop in and Out RUclipsrs rip their content ideas from and pay out on some of the sensationalist rubbish they make up - not my cup of Chai for sure!

    3. **Carpool Karaoke with a Local Taxi Driver**: Enjoy a fun and heartwarming ride as I sing along with one of Yangon’s friendliest taxi drivers. This segment is packed with laughs and local flavor.
    4. **Giving Back**: See how we’re making a difference by helping those in need. Your support enables us to give back to the community in meaningful ways.
    5. **Myth-Busting**: I’m addressing and debunking the misinformation spread by other RUclipsrs about Myanmar.

      For us foreigners, life is very comfortable here. You can easily go from your condo in a taxi to a lovely bar, restaurant and cafe and have a beautiful inexpensive life and never even see the reality of how the ordinary local people live like I show in my food donation videos or the work of Jochen and Sonne. We are privileged. Im in Kalaw now and it is paradise here but super sad for the locals to look at magnificent places all empty because international tourists no longer come. It makes me want to cry. Tourisim used to supplement their 3 to 4USD a day subsistence existences. Burmese people are such a treasure. Every year I fall more in love with here.

      I'm so glad you feel the same as me about dealing with all the misinformation all those crazy visiting RUclipsrs create. Sure as we live here there are things we can't talk about in a public forum, but yes making up stuff and putting pictures of guys with guns on a thumbnail is not the way to go either. Same, I'm off to Shan State in a couple of days to the lower part not up North. I'm hoping to paint a more rounded view of life here but it's hard as a small account. The big drop in and out ones even the Burmese simp on. Edited to say I'm also doing a video on the IDP camps in Chin state this month. I show all sides of life here.

    The rainy season is a great time for travelling and filming for RUclipsrs as its less hot and you get the beautiful cloud cover. It rains on and off but apparently, it's much hotter here than Vietnam currently according to Niki! Ha summer definitely is not travelling and filming time for me as its BBQ weather even for locals. Edited to say now I am in Kalaw 16 July and the weather is perfect here and no problems to travel in rainy season at this time even as a RUclipsr with gear!

    I started making videos because when I had a job offer as a teacher to come here, I could find nothing on the internet about Myanmar. But I came anyway and it has been the best decision in my teaching career to date. Now people are fortunate as since I have been here my channel is drawing other RUclipsrs so you have more access to information than ever before. You're welcome!. Just wait until you see my content with my friend from Georgia Niki Proshin who will make great content on here. So I guess that like I said in my teacher videos and like Lucia of Seeds said, to come here you need to be the adventurous type. Otherwise, Thailand is just next door for you;-). As a 'First Mover' I guess by the time this place becomes popular I will move to the next country people will again write me troll messages about how stupid I am to live there. Ha ha life on Social Media

    On the media, they always show the bad side of Myanmar and never show the good side. Because of this, some foreigners think Yangon is also dangerous and have no idea about this side of Myanmar, they probably do not even know there are these nice shopping malls, and this pretty much angers me. In Yangon, it is totally fine here and we are functioning perfectly. Thank you for showing this side of Myanmar. A couple days ago, I was watching a youtuber in Yangon (I won't specify his/her name) who said in the title Yangon is dangerous and not safe, and I was pretty suprised to see that because I've been living in Yangon all of my life and nothing bad has happened to me. Another youtuber, who is not that bad as the youtuber I mentioned, always photoshopped in a random Burmese soldier in every thumbnail possible. Although on some occasions, there is soldiers on the sidewalk, its not much. Again, thank you for sharing this side of Myanmar (Yangon).

I was looking for new travel videos for Yangon because I wanted to see what foreigners thought about Yangon, and chai travel really ruined it by saying Yangon is not safe. He described one of the roads in Yangon as a "highway in the city" I don't know if he was making some sort of joke about the road or in a good way. However, what do you expect from a busy city? He should just go to Naypyidaw of he does not want to cross busy roads. Enjoy your trip in Shan State!
