Turkmenistan is WILD 🇹🇲. So happy to be watching this right now !! You guys rock
Have you been there?
Please visit morocco again and explore some other places I can tell you just ask
@@KevinMayerYT Drew has been to every country in the world - literally all 197 of them. They used a clip from his Turkmenistan video at the beginning. It's a good one. Go check it out.
Hey Drew why don’t you scam some more people with the sms messages
Bro is jealous haha
I am disabled from my belly button down, and recently diagnosed with cervical cancer. I’m not able to travel. It’s always been a dream of mine though! But through your RUclips videos I feel like I’m able to experience the world, and that brings me so much peace. Thank you guys for doing what you do
Start fasting, do CDL Enemas, eat strictly alkaline and believe in the abilities of your body and I'm pretty sure you'll travel!
God bless you on your Journey ahead🙏🏼
Hey, this may sound really stupid, but because I don't know much about being disabled from belly button down nor do I know anything about cervical cancer, if its a dream of yours I really wish you could have the chance (whenever you can) to experience it. It really is a way I felt like I could relieve myself. I apologize if this is of any offense, but I hope for the best for you now and for you in the future
God bless
Jesus will heal you!
i was second away from typing "this country has an even weirder vibe than north korea", but then the wedding ceremony in the monument happened, suddenly the vibe changed and it's going better and better and better. Max is cool too.
This was my first episode of "Yes Theory". These guy's look like they're having the best time ever. I'm amazed they got in. The people were so humble! This is what humanity should be like!!
I used to watch them years ago but i had some rough times and just stopped watching, idrk why. I just rediscovered them again yesterday, it really is doing wonders for my faith in humanity bc lord knows the world needs it rn
So people should be like the people of Turkmenistan? Big North Korea fan too?
They get in because they are only positive about things. They don't criticize oppressive governments. When governments look up their content they know this.I mean certainly they know this is a part of the channel brand.
"We are honored to host you in our country, and we look forward to welcoming you again. Wishing you success on your journey of exploring the world."🇹🇲🇹🇲🇹🇲
Can u pls tell me how are they drinking Votka are people not Muslim religion there?
Can you please tell me which country you live in and then I can answer your question?@@bs369
@@bs369 Drinking vodka doesn't make a Muslim leave his religion. It is just a sin. Muslims who strictly practice their religion don't drink alcohol, while Muslims who don't strictly practice their religion drink alcohol.
@@bs369it's a post soviet union territory, of course there drinking vodka.
Your country looks boring
Amazing video as always
Good

Nice
👍👍👍👍👍
i like it
For such an insulare, and remote country. I am absolutely blown away by the amount of people so fluent in English.
I have a friend from Lebanon. He said absolutely everybody in his country learns, Arabic, English and French. He said he hates English and French but he learned it... He told me you guys can't even learn English. He's got a point! My father learned English when he was 21 while he was in medical school. came to America, pasted his test and my grandfather came to this country also, didn't start learning till he was in his 40s. Both are perfectly fluent. We are doing something very wrong in the US and they are clearly dumbing us down
I have to admit that I am floored by the genuine warmth of these people. Turkmenistan is definitely mind-blowing. Thank You for taking us all on such a memorable adventure. I married an AIR FORCE Brat 39 years ago who graduated in Kaiserslautern Germany. His family vacationed in Switzerland, and Paris. He learned to drive on the Autobahn and had a Fort Worth Attorney on retainer after returning to the States LOL. He has taken this Texas girl all over North America and one day he hopes to take me back to His heart's home KTown Germany. I think I'm going to give Magic AI a try.
Being a turkmen myself it made my heart warm watching this. Thank you guys a lot for making this trip and for posting this video. This is so precious. Thank you for capturing these moments, this is such a turkmen experience. Thanks for showing this to the world. I truly do believe the best part of Turkmenistan is it’s people with their genuine hospitality and humility.
Aww, that’s so sweet
These videos always make me want to go to these places so much
How do you have public internet?
Looks a beautiful down to earth country
so bad @@pajeetsingh
This channel rocks because rather than trying to paint a narrative, the creators allow locals to tell their own story. Beautiful.
bs
of course the “locals” will tell a good story. It’s a dictatorship, they HAVE to say good things
Nah, they actually suck
Like this isn't a set up narrative why did it take so long to get in and why was it so deserted?
@@j3a3k3e5did.... did you not watch the video? because it takes forever to get a visa card if you even manage to get one.
OMG man, seeing the wedding was hilarious and so cool, but you playing with those kids at the end was so sweet and simple it brings tears to my eyes. So beautiful! I loved how it took the tour guide a little while to figure you guys out but in the end he was laughing along with you all. All the lovely people in this were so inspiring ❤
I'm glad you pushed through your initial doubts and fears to experience Turkmenistan firsthand. It's moments like these, where we connect with people from different cultures, that remind us of our shared humanity. Keep exploring and spreading positivity!
The people at the wedding were so nice and to show some RUclipsrs so much love proves how many good people there are in the world.
Probably organized for their enjoyment by the local Secret Service.
@@clray123exactly what I was looking thinking …
@@clray123The wedding is truly Turkmen wedding as a Turkmen I can confirm. People of Turkmenistan is naive , kind hospitality is in our blood. Government and people of Turkmenistan are completely different!! We are prefer peaceful sky and prosperity rather than war and destruction.
@@Nazik-ur9zr Of course the wedding was traditional, but the question is whether the invitation just happened spontaneously or there was some hidden "helping hand" from some officials in order to show the vloggers how "welcoming" their country is. I mean, if there wasn't, this sort of party could cause problems for the hosts, what if the invited were some foreign spies/journalists looking to ridicule the great Turkmen people?
@@clray123I am from Turkmenistan , no way secret service actually don’t like this exposure lol .
People are dark af.. yes Turkmens are spontaneously hospitable
The biggest hearts are in the farthest away places.
Love this adventure 🔥
Frrrr
This country makes me wonder if in an alternate reality we worked with the Native Americans instead of colonizing the America's how similar would they be to this country in the modern day?
i love you mike corey @fearlessandfar your biggest fan from 🇮🇳
@@derekcox543I am from Turkmenistan, I think you lost “all good “ chill vibes of Nomads. Natives Americans are related to Turks
Well said sir 🙏
I think locals have this emotional joy they get when they see people from different countries come to their community
Love and compassion are key to end hatred, indifference and violence. And your amazing travel vlog demonstrated this. Thank you. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
8 years into it, and the entire Yes Theory crew is still into the idea with all of their hearts. You can see that this is not just a job, not just a channel for any of them, it's not about money or fame. It is a way of life, and everything they are preaching they are showing by example. Thank you for going out of your comfort zone so we can too. Thank you for showing that a rejection is not the end of the world and that love and honesty go further than everything. Thank you for listening to the community's voice, as we will always be here to spread the word.
Rejection is only another opportunity for connection. 😌
This comment made my day, I read a negative comment earlier this morning on Instagram that really got to me these last few hours. I try not to get baited by these negative comments and chose not to respond, but sometimes they really sting and chip away at your day. I decided I'd rather take my time to respond to someone who actually does see what we do and appreciates it and this was the first comment I landed on. So, thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful message, it went a long way today. Sending love back your way my friend - Thomas
@@YesTheory it seems to me like a classic case of desire driven cowardice. They see you living your dream and your purpose, even when it gets tough, and hate the fact they don't have the courage to seek their own discomfort.
negativity is cheap and easy. What you bring to the world is priceless. I really hope you do a good job promoting that book because the world needs it badly.
You all are an inspiration and you make the world a better place. Thank you. @@YesTheory
Yes! 🕊️
Thank you guys SO much for looking past fears & anxieties about a country that is so closed off to the rest of the world. I have several good friends from Turkmenistan who I have met from living in Eastern Europe. Of course the country & government has its reputation, BUT the people of Turkmenistan are some of the warmest, friendliest, & funniest people you’ll ever meet. I’m SO glad that you guys were able to capture this. Thanks for what you do!
If the people are so friendly and giving, then the government must be decent, unless this was staged, but all things considered, it seemed legit. I do like that the concept of "oneness" was brought up, because we are one people of earth. One love
The women (even married older ones) are loose; notice how at 16:30 and 13:20 that Turkmen woman was DANCING with one of the Yes Theory guys despite being married, he had to edit it out because I'm guessing they made physical contact as well. Even in Turkmenistan, women aren't loyal to their husbands.
@@ruslanibragimov4991 Stop writing pics of shit. I am from Turkmenistan. This is a wedding. We are a secular county and everyone is allowed to do what is common everywhere. She might not be married though.
Greetings from Murat from Turkmenistan, who works in Istanbul, sir ♥️💌♥️💌🙏😊

I worked with a colleague who is from Turkmenistan. He always told us the most interesting stories about his country and how no one except the president can drive in black cars and women can’t wear certain types of makeup. We would listen with so much amazement. I was about to share this video with him, but then I remembered that he doesn't have RUclips because he told me it's not allowed in his country. 🙃
The burning hole.
I just assumed that the whole thing was staged. There were virtually no people, there were virtually no cars. In the capital city. I assumed that the lack of anything negative (aside from the lack of light bulbs) was so they could get the video out of the country. Also so that other people would be able to follow them because nothing bad was said about the country
Dude, this is quality content. The partaking of the wedding, the immersion in their culture, wrestling with the kids, Amazing!
I went on a road trip with my dad from the UK to Turkmenistan, back in 2011.
The night before we crossed from Iran , I remember we were camped on a faceless brown, dusty mountain overlooking the Turkmen border , with only a phone mast for company next to our Land Rover.
We had just experienced 3 days of exceptional welcome and friendliness while in Iran, but nothing could prepare us for the contrast to come.
After crossing the border, we were first instructed to wash our vehicle, because "dirty vehicles in Ashgabat get $100 fines". We were accompanied by a government minder for the next three days.
As per this video, the streets were spectacular, with gleaming white (often facade) buildings adorning their edges. We saw many of the monuments profiled here as well as the national stadium (I think $600m build), while golden statues to the "great leader" at every turn were especially memorable.
It was utterly bizarre being somewhere so empty - I remember seeing a set of 20 x school children dressed in long, floating red robes who were ushered away from us as the only 'group' of people we saw during our whole trip .
I also remember being able to use the Internet in a public cafe, but only if we handed our passports over first.
The first hotel we went to was "fully booked for the UN" despite clearly being entirely empty. At the next hotel , the grand entrance was betrayed by a delabitated interior and half furnished rooms. We were also ushered back to the hotel by secret police around midday on Day 2 - being informed the president drives through the centre of the city then and does not like to see people on the streets or foreign vehicles (we also had to "hide" our vehicle behind the hotel).
Turkmenistan's infrastructure is incredibly impressive and you will not find a "cleaner" city, but I've never felt more unwelcome, or seen such centralized and narcissistic power from a leader seemingly drunk on the power afforded him through resources, propaganda and Russians political influence.
I felt and feel sorry for the Turkmen people, living under such a shadow, in the midst of one of the worlds most exceptional city centres.
I remember my dad's frustration that I couldn't just enjoy the experience more, rather than critiquing it via a juvenile Western lens - a frustration towards myself I now share.
My dad drove on into Uzbekistan , while I flew back from Ashgabat to the UK. It would turn out to be the last trip we'd do together.
I remember sitting next to a Japanese woman on the plane (in the extractive sector), who could see my irritation. I explained my sense of perplexity towards the veneration bestowed on the Turkmen leader, to which she referenced the Japanese Emperor.
The experience changed my world view and although I didn't "enjoy" the city it's a totally underexplored region of the world (speaking from a Western perspective) which deserves enquiry and attention.
Well, thats an interesting perspective
right on, Prince Siddhartha.
No, you had every right to be irritated and frustrated in a narcissistic regime. From the videos I have seen of Turkmenistan, the people are lovely but the regime and government is terrible. Too authoritarian and the main reason why I won't visit until things have changed dramatically. Same with North Korea.
Wow.
Whu was this the last trip with your dad?
We, people in Turkmenistan saying "Myhman atandan uly (17:10)" wich translates guests a higher than your father and it literally means that you are taking care of your guests as good as you taking care of your father. I am amazed by watching this video, thank you guys for showing these to the all world!
In love with this channel! It solidifies exactly what I try to tell everyone I meet that lives in their own little corner of the world. Everywhere I've ever been, people all want the same thing...to be happy. We're mostly shown only the horror stories through media, but nearly never the happiness around the world. Thank you all so much for showing the true love and happiness around the world. What a wonderful blessing!
Chills watching some of this footage... extremely haunting seeing such a big place usually associated with activity be completely devoid of people
Thanks for making this video!
I'm so happy my son showed me this channel. I can't get enough! I've been sick for a long time & didn't get to travel like I wanted to. I've never even been out of the US or on an airplane. I'd love to go anywhere but if I had to pick I would say Japan, Australia or Ireland. I lost both kidneys when I had my son (I was only 28) I stayed on dialysis for 13 long years. I also went through breast cancer when I was 30. Praise God I received a kidney transplant 5 years ago & I am still cancer free. I'd love to travel but it is impossible on my income. I will just continue to watch your videos and feel my heart smile everytime. 😊❤
You are a fighter! Maybe you can so a nice trip in your area at least. During COVID i discovered Lots of beautiful places in my neighborhood I Had never Seen before
you are welcome in Morocco
You are so welcome to Scotland,I really mean it,not just saying it,all you need is your plane ticket
God bless you! Hopefully the situation change for you
The Lord is your strength, stay blessed.
God will surprise you with money and you will be able to travel to view the world.
Max telling them " if you don't go eating you'll get drunk" is so wholesome! hahaha like an uncle who doesn't want you to get shitfaced at a family party 🤣
Just wow.. i mean wow.. first time coming across YES THEORY, and truly i'm so much in love with the epic documentary and how you interacting and catching the glimpse of your audience...KEEP IT UP GUYS
Brought me the tears, Your words on travel and the importance of it now more than ever! So well made and what a great group of guys you are!
That wedding part was absolutely insane. You guys are single-handedly changing the way the world looks at other countries. Watching the news can easily distort our perception of reality, but at the end we're all people.
P.S. - Dream trip would be Japan, so here's the comment.
Thank you guys!
I live in Japan, best country for sure. Very safe and polite
It's clearly your positive energy and willingness to be flexible and look for any opportunity to engage with locals that allows you to connect so well and open up these experiences to thousands of others! Thank you!
Love this comment! That is the key indeed 🙏 -Thomas
I've only started watching your channel today. I've subscribed and will binge some more.
I've never had a passport or enough money to ever travel but getting to watch your videos gives me a chance to experience it all vicariously through some of the nicest people I've had the experience of viewing. Kindness costs nothing, and in many years of homelessness experience I found it very rare to come across this in most folk, however, I make sure to spread it wherever possible. It's great to see others doing the same. 😁
I wish you all the best on your adventures and in life in general! All the love.
💛
so happy to stumble upon this show. that is so heartwarming to see a country that's very hard to travel into has such hospitable and most welcoming people. thanks for my smile and a new knowledge of a country i never heard of before!
Being a citizen of Turkmenistan and currently an expat in Vietnam, this video is by far something I am looking forward to watch and the fact that you, guys, visited my country and made this video already gives me goosebumps! I am sure I will enjoy every second of it and it will help me feel myself back in the streets of Ashgabat!!! Well done, Yes Fam!
100% fake post, but thanks, comrade for participating💉💉💉
I wonder if you're facing any adversity or challenges from living in Turkmenistan to live in Vietnam
Invite us to your country 😁
obviously it was quite challenging at first, especially lack of food that I had been used to, but after having lived in Vietnam for 4 years I can assure you that I feel like home here now and those obstacles just have faded away@@danneytee
it would be my honor :) if you are lucky, we could take you to another wedding party @@MrandMrsLivingLife
Being there probably feels like a dream. Not a dream you'd want to be in, but not exactly a nightmare, just a strange dream
Really underrated comment 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
That wedding scene was something else. Such warm hospitality in an unexpected place!
I love seeing a totally different perspective about these countries or traveling in general. I feel like I am really there with you doing these amazing things with the people of each country. I admire your willingness to go into uncomfortable or dangerous situations for the benefit of all of us that watch. You guys rock!

The tour guide is probably thinking “what have I gotten myself into?” but this specific tour might be remembered by him forever. Great video guys!
I grew up on a tiny island in the Western Pacific called Tinian (population ~3,000) which played a huge role in ending WWII, but many people don’t know about it aside from history buffs or relatives of veterans who served during the war. As a subscriber and mental health service provider for school-aged children, I’ve always loved your content and how you spread awareness on the importance of connection. Making positive connections can be a huge source of strength during tough times. A dream destination is Jeju Island in Korea because of its beauty, culture, and food. I’ve always been fascinated by the haenyo (women divers) and would love to see them in action too.

Hi from India! ❤
Great trip, thank you for sharing, I really enjoyed the video, it was a real joy to see such lovely people, being so kind...
I've seen so many bloggers going to this country, showing a complete and opposite experience than yours. Amazing that you were invited to the wedding and, got to experience such a treat. Blessings!!
This was honestly one of your greatest videos
to date. Not only did you go into a completely
unknown and seldom traveled country, but
you made friends with locals when almost no
one was around, and discovered several
beautiful sites. Your smiles and energies were
amazing! Machu Picchu has always been a
travel dream!
we were as surprised to make friend there as you were! But loved every bit of it!!
Its insane how nice and caring people can be from the most misunderstood places! You guys are awesome!
as long as you're white and they think you're from US, yes
The woman at 16:30 (who we see again at 13:20) is like married (wedding ring) and 55, but still danced with that Yes Theory guy. Haram country. Even in the U.S., a woman loyal to her husband shouldn't dance with other guys.
@@ruslanibragimov4991 DONT be so closed minded. The lady is so old already. Talk nice thing ok.
@@ruslanibragimov4991 Why? In central/eastern Europe, including russia btw, that's normal. It's a dance, not sex lol. More than that, in Poland, especially at a wedding all the people, including the bride and groom are actually kind of expected to dance with everyone, family or friends, doesn't matter. Of course, you have different types of dances, and super slow dance is probably reserved for a couple, but any other type? Don't see why not.
Amazing how a government can be good to its people , instead of crying democracy and causing chaos ! America holds the record for the most prisoners and school shootings in the world !
Wow this is such a wholesome episode. Thank you for making and sharing your experience
Imagine if the guide arranged for the wedding to come so you guys can see it 😂
This feels a lot like your original type of content, that's what made me fall in love with your channel in the first place. Showing the other side of places and cultures, that usually seem to not be considered as travel destinations. I want to travel all over the world, but my next dream destination would be Tromso Norway :)
One thing I’ve noticed from travel blogs, is how friendly the local people are. Whether in the city or small places. This video was so cool.
Take politics and religious doctrine out of the equation you will find that most people get along just fine.
I love seeing people connect. Ive never been able to travel due to a lot of family needing help. These videos make me happy that people get to see real humanity past the boundaries drawn by mass media and the connections we all have as individuals. Awesome time guys. Thanks.
I am so glad that I found this video. Travel just broadens one’s outlook on life. ❤ Thank you.
I was so touched by the warmth of the people at the wedding. What a great episode!!
The editing, the humor, and the story telling. Everything was on point 👏🏼🤍🇸🇦
What is the punishment for apostasy?
@@PROVOCATEURSK Your question has nothing to do with my comment lmao… but I’ll answer you. In all Abrahamic religions, those who apostasy are heavily punished. In Christianity, you’ll be shunned, excommunicated, tortured, or have your civil rights suspended. In Judaism, you will be stoned to death. In Islam, you’ll get a lot of advice to turn back to your faith. If not, then similar to Judaism, death is your sentence. However, not by being stoned, which is a harsh way to die. Nonetheless, all of what I just said doesn’t even happen in our day and age. You can do whatever you want; just keep it to yourself.
@@Ghostly555christ brought a new covenant, he put a close on the old testament. apostasy is not punishable by death because all of our sins may be forgiven once we place our faith in christ amen
You guys are amazing!!! Thank you for making and sharing this film!! I feel so good about humanity after watching the beautiful experience you all had in Turkmenistan. I needed this reminder of the power of human connection in a sometimes dark world. Much gratitude. 💜
This is so moving, what a beautiful journey and video. So well documented and presented.. thank you for showing us and reminding us how beautiful people are. In today’s artificial social world, you showed something so natural and kind. ❤
You made me reconsider travelling despite mental struggle with anxiety. Thank you for what you do.
To do the exact opposite to what anxiety tells you makes it less powerfull. To stay at home and hide makes anxiety more powerfull
Try meditation!
Get that passport out, and get moving.
Absolutely thrilled to watch the video! Being from Kazakhstan, I couldn't help but have a huge smile throughout, as our cultures with Turkmenistan people are so similar. It's incredible to see these hidden gems showcased and appreciated. I loved the message you guys are giving at the end of the video. As for my dream destination, it's Reykjavik. There's something about the charm and beauty of Iceland that captivates my imagination. Its virgin unique nature is breathtaking.
This trip really touched my heart ❤️ Thank you for another amazing video!
Totally loving this and you got a new subscriber. Was bumming today and this cheered me up. There's hope for humanity
I’m from Kazakhstan (quiet close to where your are in this video!), and my absolute dream destination is Antarctica. One of the main reasons why I dream of going there is my fascination with penguins (don’t you all feel like a penguin sometimes, a beautiful sort of clumsy creature that cannot fly? Is it just me?😂) 🐧 Also coming from a landlocked country far away from any ocean, it’s quiet amazing to embark on a trip such as a trip to Antarctica! Flying to South America and then the southernmost part of the world, seeing the biggest penguin colony, and just getting to experience being on a virtually uninhabited continent… just thinking about it makes me feel excited.
Hopefully your dream will once fulfill! I would also be really interested in visiting Antarctica, just a beautiful natural place that hasn't been fully destroyed by people and the penguins sure are awesome! Greetings from Czech Republic
Loved how you guys embraced the beauty of their culture, most especially their people, no matter how “strange” the country has been from an outsider perspective ! You guys are awesome!
Except the women are in total bondage physically and mentally with minimal rights. Look
It up. It’s awful!
The people there are so kind. It's beautiful how inviting they are. It was so nice to see the guys just wanting to meet people ❤
So much appreciation for the deep dive you guys doing a different cultures and situations. Thank you thank you yes theory.
Max is the MVP for sticking things through and stepping out of his comfort zone and indulging in the fun with you guys!!!!
Wow. How beautiful & kind those people were who invited you to their wedding. Love how respectful and invested you each are in these trips. We will all miss you, Matt!
Loved the vibe! You guys are great to watch!! ❤
This is my first time watching any of your videos and I’m blown away!! What a beautiful country and the people are just as lovely! Thank you! This was educational 🙌🏾 you have a new follower 😊
"We live in a time in the world right now where fear has been slowly dripping like poison into the veins of society pulling us further and further apart. The rhetoric of Us Versus Them is rampant. The dehumanization of entire regions of the world feels commonplace and in the meantime it feels like the everyday person is left as the loser. Neighbors and cousins are pinned against each other forgetting we all once knew how to live peacefully."
So beautiful. Thank you for sharing this video! More power to y'all! Love from Texas!
That wedding looked like so much fun. Really cool to see how friendly everyone was
Kinda spooky when you realize that the weddings only happened because the Gov heard the Guys saying how weird it was that there was no locals anywhere.
Because Turkmenistan is a surveillance state. Like Saudi Arabia. Privacy is a joke over there.
There’s a reason the guide was like…this is not supposed to happen.
@@SadboyPoltergeist You really think they set up two weddings with a huge reception just because of some youtubers? Im skeptical
@@SadboyPoltergeistyeah this country honestly seems terrifying to live in, I hope all the people that live there are ok and happy with what life has to offer over there.
@@mapper7310 my comment disappeared but go watch vice’s guide to N Korea. It’s a similar instance.
Man that outro hits so good. Mad props for putting that hope and positive energy out there gents.
This is awesome ❤.
Thank you so much for showing us this part of the world ❤.
Greetings from Kenya 🇰🇪.
I have been watching this channel for years and truly have become A LOT more outgoing, kind, and a discomfort seeker. Like many, I struggled with social anxiety so much that I often found more comfort in my own company than others. Seeing these videos inspired me to push past the discomfort to ultimately experience beautiful friendships and visit gorgeous parts of the world. I am so proud of the person I am now and can confidently say that Yes Theory had a huge impact on my life. For that, I will forever be grateful. I even got my own yes tattoo as a reminder to myself to always say yes to the opportunities that life presents and although it can be scary every experience in life, good or bad is worth living.
@myria
YAAAY!! Your comment made me smile and feel so human! We are connected and inspire one another. You just inspired me to push myself more. Maybe I also need a new tattoo of something as a daily reminder that we must all seize the day.
Thx for sharing!
Love from Latvia, Aleksandra
your story has made me feel happy in the morning, everyone wants to feel human and sometimes our personalities make us to be closed but its possible to break out of our shells if only we believe, I am a recovering alcoholic and without the crutch I suffer from social anxiety as I feel like I have no personality. But will attend yoga classes just to meet a new type of people. Love from kenya.
The message at the end was so freaking powerful. Almost got me tear up. Yes Theory is the only channel whose videos can make you laugh, cry, learn, and get inspired all in half an hour!
our world is actually so united if only we got rid of politicians and leaders who want to divide us by ethnicity or religion
Not the only channel
The only channel? No.
That's the very true one
It was inappropriate and haram for that married woman at 31:20 to DANCE with the Yes Theory guys, Andrew Tate would laugh at her husband for letting her do that
Fascinating !! Thank you for this video!
This was one of my favorite episodes. Amazing people! The guide also did a lot for the experience.
Wow guys 🥹 incredible video 💛 Loved every second. Thank you to everyone who made it so special!
I love how they were able to make human connections when they barely met any people at first! Traveling is such a beautiful tool for connection
I've only just discovered this channel today...two videos in and love it already! Keep up the good work...
Thank you guys so much for this treasure! Keep going!!!
We ALL are aware that everything negative that happens across our worlds are politically driven. You are doing super good work in showing the NOT SO POLITICAL side of humanity! I do subscribe to many channels in RUclips, yours being one of them, but, after viewing few of your videos I can positively say that you are among the critically few vloggers who are doing justice to their work in a positive manner. Simple and sweet 😊
actually had a non stop smile on my face from the second you guys step foot in the country. amazing stuff honestly, this really shows the best parts of humanity.
Thank you guys for the interesting content, this country is so surreal… amazing. So grateful for the opportunity to see and actually almost to feel how it’s gonna be to be there! I was there whit you all the time in my mind… be save,you and everyone who‘s watching! Oh, and i love the message at the end! Beautiful ❤🥰🙏
Very well made video! I appreciate y'all's humor, openness to the culture and it's people, and the very wise words spoken throughout this video, particularly at the end. Truly great work, and i will definitely be subscribing!! Also so glad y'all did this country, I've been so curious about the architecture and the lack of people you see out in the public in photos, so glad to finally know a lil' bit of what the locals are actually like! Did y'all ever get to ask anyone about the neon night lights? Besides the wedding it doesn't really seem like there's a nightlife scene there, so I'm very interested as to what the purpose is! Purely aesthetic? Cant imagine that coming from the government, but who knows🤷🏼♀️
So wonderful to see Matt in this video, and once again you guys have made some incredible storytelling. Thank you for showing what so few get to experience!
Omg, that's literally my home country. I was born there, my father still lives there. And it's really good to see that the people are still welcoming and I hope you had only positive feelings while visiting. It's really heart-warming to watch this video especially after all the rumors and weird stories about Turkmenistan. I'm really grateful for the work you do. You guys, are really inspiring and keep making the world the better place! THANK YOU! huge love❤
Thanks for sharing that story. That's cool
@@Langdonz, my pleasure☺️
Thank you so much for visiting this beautiful country and showing us not only the sights but the wonderful people as well.
Just came across your videos and you guys are such a vibe! Such an amazing experience you guys had! I cant wait to watch more videos!
Wow this country is HIGH on my list! Incredible video as always boys!
Hi here before it blows up lol
I want to Join
how to get viza maybe known only thees guys
I am here to help you if you ever decide to visit my country, Turkmenistan:)
@user-fh9hx8jh3g woud be interested how difficult it is to get into country is it expensive?
It’s great seeing Matt back in the videos, this was such a great video. If I had the opportunity to go anywhere in the world on a vacation, I would choose New Zealand. I’ve always been obsessed with how everything looks in photos and videos, but to experience it in first person would be astonishing.
Hello from New Zealand!
New Zealand is truly astonishing
Lord of the Rings movie!
Thank you for sharing these amazing experience’s, such welcoming beautiful people. I wanted to travel the world when young, raised a beautiful daughter instead, it was hard but we managed. I encouraged her to see the world and I am so glad for her that she has. One day perhaps I will as well. The world outside of the boarders we set around ourselves is filled with beauty and generosity from our global family I hope to meet them someday. I look forward to your next video and again Thank You 🌞
What an experience...thank you for sharing!
I didn't realize it was so difficult to travel into that country. I'll probably never have a chance to go myself. Thanks for the adventure.
It is pretty similar to North Korea, you can't travel freely and must book travel with guides that decide what you can and cannot see
Incredible!! Travel is the best education one can receive. What lovely & friendly people. This is Living!!!!!
One of the best videos I have seen in the last time! Great job guys! 👏👏👏
The message you all continue to send is so very important, I can’t stress enough how beautiful you portray people around the world. Recently I’ve been having trouble finding hope in this world bc i believed we were very far gone as a society and not to mention numb to all the very horrible things in the world, but you all keep reminding me the beauty in us, so thank you. We’re all just humans who have way more much in common than we think.
Your openness, curiosity and willingness to follow the people is beautiful. What a life lesson for us all.
Sooooooooo in love with this country right now!!!! Thank you for sharing
Fabulous documentary..I watched so much watching this!
Yes Theory never fails to make my day with their beautiful storytelling!
I've done a few solo trips in the past year because of the inspiration I've gotten from this channel to seek discomfort, keep an open mind and heart, and choose love over fear. As for my dream destination, I can't wait to visit Mexico one day, especially the vibrant CDMX. Having learnt Spanish over the course of 6 years, and after having recently visited Spain, I've been itching to explore more of Latin America and fully immerse myself in the diverse cultures and traditions of the region!
Nice! Love the way you put this. And the fact that sometimes we should seek discomfort though theoretically uncomfortable it actually is the path to salvation. It’s interesting.
Can we all just take a second and acknowledge how epic the visuals that Cory recorded for the video are? Always transports us to the location with them!
Show Cory some love and check out his work here: www.youtube.com/@CorySMartin
Amazing Job ❤
his work in these videos is always inspiring to me to continue trying to improve my videos
You guys are a breath of fresh air. Thanks for the great vids
Wonderful experience to watch. Thank you for sharing this with the world.
The joy that yes theory videos bring me is unparalleled, they always remind me of how beautiful the world is when I need it most. As for my dream trip, I have always wanted to go see the northern lights in Iceland or Norway
