    I love your videos but saying Trump is the worst person in the world was unnecessary. I am a Trump supporter and I know you are entitled to your opinion however political views are a subject that should be not touched on without upsetting your viewers. Stay safe on your travels

      You are the 2nd person to say this .. I thought it was super clear that I was supporting him.
      I was quoting what people say “he is the worst person in the world”
      I don’t think that at all, I was saying people have double standard, they ignore what Thailands government wants to do for national safety and when Trump wants to secure the borders “he is the worst person in the world”

    Also most borders around the world will have families, ethic groups or any other kind of relatives or communities that have been living, trading, inter-marrying for centuries so for most that border means nothing much. So yes, you have Thai Muslims and Malay Muslims that live harmoniously together and learn each other’s languages and in principle have a lot of similarities in culture, custom, food and religion.

      ​@@marcoroams I had the same problem back in May, I had to do a quick border bounce, so I went by train to Padang Besar with my Thai wife. I had seen RUclips videos of travellers saying the Thai immigration would not allow them back into Thailand from Malaysia stating they had to stay in Malaysia for at least 2 days!
      So I asked the Thai immigration before I left Thailand, they told me 'no' I can't stamp out and then return straight away. I even had the return train booked
      In the end we were sent to a different immigration office a few minutes away where vehicles pass through. After my wife pleaded with them they finally stamped me back into Thailand.

    That first hotel you stayed at is the stuff that's going to give me nightmares I guarantee it will go into my nightmare catalog. I used to be a plumber. I went everywhere The Good the Bad and the Ugly and I wanted this huge dodgy apartment complex with some 500 Apartments all set up like a little city. It haunts my dreams to this day. I have a couple other places that I've been that haunt my dreams to this day I don't know why😮 they're always potentially scary desolate places. Or I definitely know stuff could go wrong and is going on currently while I'm there. That's what that hotel looks like to me😮

Hate when that happens with birds poop on me I’d be like sometimes walk around and a bar of flower just drop it sometimes it hits me sometimes it just sucks. Get pooped on poop falling from the heavens that’s crazy, but they’re great creatures as well too, and they do as we do poop and pee. Amen. Thank you for the great videos.

      Nooo… I’m quoting what the media and many people say“he’s the worst person in the world” it’s like a saying ….
      Basically saying that counties and people do things and nobody cares, but when trump does it, all of a sudden he becomes the worst person because people just don’t like him.
      I don’t think that at all, Trump will do a great job over the next few years, I can already see so much changing and he hasn’t even started yet.
