    If you guys like local markets, I recommend Jingjai Market on Sunday mornings. Get there early though, it does get crowded fast and many shops close up by noon!

    Ahhh, great to see Hannah and Trey in your video. I love both sets of RUclipsrs' travel series around Europe and Asia. I find your slow travel and the costings super-interesting, and Probably Lost''s fast travel guides brilliant for planning weekend city breaks. Because of them, I have been to Sofia, Barcelona, Budapest and Copenhagen in the last few months!!
    I love your Chaing Mai vlogs. I climbed up to that temple as a 12 year old... and remember feeling sick when we got there!!

    Totally cool if this isn’t a video you want to make Carrie. However, it is so obvious that Carrie stays in great shape. Brian you are very handsome, but I’m so interested in Carries routine while traveling. I think she does morning walks before the day starts. Carrie do you go to the gym, yoga, running, weights etc.? Just curious 🧐

    • @BrianandCarrie
      @BrianandCarrie  Год назад +1

      Hi Noelle! I try to incorporate exercise how I can based on where we are staying. In Chiang Mai we had a gym in our building so we hit that most mornings. In our place in Croatia we we in a building with 18 floors, so I would do that 3 times each morning. If we have room in our Airbnb we will do workout videos on RUclips. I will also walk in the morning if that's the option but we walk a lot already (9 miles yesterday alone) so that's not my first choice 🤣🤣. It's not easy to keep a routine, but it's doable.

We are considering planning our first trip to Thailand from the Eastern US - how many days would you suggest we need to cover at least Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and possibly Phuket? We're huge foodies and appreciate you taking us to all of the local markets.

    • @BrianandCarrie
      @BrianandCarrie  Год назад +1

      We would say three days in each place. In Chaing Mai, you want to see all the temples plus you may want to go to the Elephant sanctuary, something that we didn't do. We saved our money for Ha Long Bay. Bangkok has day trips as well as temples that you don't want to miss. We really enjoyed both and the food is amazing!!! We are in Vietnam now and will be heading back to Southern Thailand in mid-March, Phuket we may visit in April. Thank you for watching and safe travels!!

    If you are still in Chiang Mai - do check out the "Lemongrass" restaurant. Its a small home run eatery - fantastic food and service at very reasonable prices. We ate there every night during our visit to Chiang Mai around 10 years ago. Will be curious to know how you like it if you do go visit. On a side note, my wife and I (we are Americans as well) are enjoying following your journey - and learning from it. We are planning something similar - but with 2 kids - for 9 months. Keep up your great work, and safe travels!

    There is one enhancement I would like you to consider when engaging food vendors. Jeanette (like many other viewers I think) is allergic to shellfish. Could you comment as you engage, whether the vendor takes that into account and prevents contamination of the NON shellfish meals please?
    Roger

    • @BrianandCarrie
      @BrianandCarrie  Год назад +1

      Hi Roger, the street food venders probably are not able to avoid cross contamination. There are plenty of options that don't sell any kind of sea food to choose from, however. Peanut allergies would also be a big problem.

    • @whirltraveller1350
      @whirltraveller1350 Год назад

      @Brian and Carrie Thanks so much. No peanut allergies, just the wife's shellfish one. We expected that you would say that. We have travelled to nearly 70 countries and territories worldwide and have been fortunate by taking commonsense precautions but always carrying her Epipens with us.
      I highly appreciate that you took the time to respond. Cheers.
      Roger

    • @BrianandCarrie
      @BrianandCarrie  Год назад

      I think the commonsense precautions are best. It would be difficult to navigate the way you have with a food allergy. We did address it in a video coming out in a couple weeks. We did the boat cruise in Ha Long Bay and they are very accommodating and will have a separate menu for any guest for any reason. This is a good topic to touch on! We are drafting a video now for next Saturday and will address it. Thank you!!

      We did walk to the old town several times. It is about a 20-to-30-minute walk. The best time of year to go is Dec-Feb. The air quality is still good until late February. After that, it is burn season and the air quality can be really bad. We left just in time. 🍻

    I have one random question. If you use two factor authentication to access some of you accounts, what is your 2FA method of choice? I've been going crazy trying to figure out how to use 2FA for my various accounts once I cancel my cell phone plan. Seems like a lot of accounts won't send a 2FA code to a voip number (like Google Voice). If you've got a good solution, I'd love to hear. Thanks and keep 'em coming! 🍻

      Hey there, sorry for the late reply we've been out of range. This has been a bit of a issue but as long as we set up the Google voice numbers before leaving the states we have found the majority of sites with dual authentication have worked. What I did do on the last time home was set up Google Fi. I used it while home and then paused service as soon as we arrived. You can pause for 3 months at a time. This gives me local number banks recognize and if I need it I put in my Google Fi sim card, activate and I'm good to go. Not the easiest or cheapest solution but it's works for us. Hope that helps

      @@BrianandCarrie That is helpful. Thanks for the detailed reply!
      I've been testing the various accounts that I use multi factor authentication with and not all worked using my Google Voice number. For several accounts, I was able to change from having an SMS message with a security code sent to my phone to having the code emailed to me. For another account I could setup Symantec VIP Access (free app), and another account let me use the built in authenticator on my Google Pixel phone. One bank account only uses SMS messages to send the security code (and won't work with Google Voice), so I'm looking into closing that account and opening another account that uses email or an authenticator app. I had no idea life could get so complicated if you don't want to have a phone. Crazy!
