Hi Willie nice to see the parts tourists don’t see , we often skip through a place without really seeing it…. Look forward to Jaipur… hope your tum settles soon..😊
Hi Christine, it's a pleasure and privilege as always to show you these places off the beaten track! Thanks for the well wishes, getting proper nutrition in India is proving difficult :)
@willieexplore it's a difficult balance trying new foods, some of which may or may not agree with you and yet you want to try them to see what they taste like.
Thank you Willie once my phone notification ring by your upload I was excited to see new adventure in India I liked your engagement with the locals Indian people are very friendly looking to next one... cheers
Nice VLOG! 25:33 The population is 4 1/2 million but this is estimated / Projected - The last census in India was conducted in 2011. The mandatory 10 yearly census couldn't be done in 2021 due to pandemic (it couldn't be done for the same reason until 2023 and then there were elections early this year. So the census is now expected to begin in October 2024. That should give a more accurate count. 29:38 definitely a residence I'm guessing those are the names of the couple that live there.
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you providing the additional information too. I find the demographics of India fascinating, it is mindblowing just how big the population of the country is. Let's see what the upcoming census say about Agra! And yes, I was really looking for an Indian residence so glad you confirmed it is!
Thanks again Willie! I really love the way you show us the normal tourist sites, but then take us on some unexpected out of the way places as well. Soms bietjie skrikwekkend ook (#@&*). 😃👍
Dankie Errol, I really enjoying going off the beaten track and explore places or parts of places that many don't dare to. The magic happens away from the main sites, that I've learned a long time ago. Groetnis!
Hi Willie - I too was curious about why many people in the hotter Asian countries seem to wear trousers and long sleeves. But when I was recently in Nepal with my cousin, she explained that it's because they're protecting themselves from the sun. I suppose the fact that they're acclimatised to the heat makes it easier for them to do so! 🌞
Hi Andy, nice to hear from you! Your explanation makes a lot of sense. And I guess culturally they want to present themselves in a certain way too. I've been reading up on Nepal as a possible destination. Man, it looks amazing...
@willieexplore Oh trust me, Nepal is incredible! I absolutely loved my trip there, and fully intend to go back one day. There's so much more of the country I want to see. My last visit was mainly centred around Kathmandu (i.e., the three cities of Kathmandu, Lalitpur, and Bhaktapur), with only one trip outside the city to Namobuddha, but I also want to go to Pokhara as well as getting into more rural areas and into the mountains. I guarantee you'll love it! 😊
Very very Calm there Willie 🤣🤣 (Compared to Delhi). It is hard to understand why someone would say not to visit Agra, from what I can see in your presentation there’s so Much to see , definitely the kind of place I would like to explore! Beautiful! Thank You very much Willie , for giving us this entertainment, exactly what I needed as I’m bored , just returned from Jamaica! Also Jamaicans were running around in black jeans and long sleeves, 31-34 degrees every day!
Cheers Bip! Yep even though it is still a big place with millions of residents, it is a breeze compared to Delhi! There are definitely other things in Agra to experience but it is the people (as with any place in India) that really make the experience worthwhile. I have not been to the South yet but they will struggle to beat the hospitality of the North! Interesting about the clothing choices in the Caribbean, when I was in the ABC islands many people wore shorts! Hope your Jamaica experience was everything you wanted it to be, and more :)
Brilliant thanks for your time making these as kinda of inspiration for us to watch and see what is out there! And effective for managing the video so you can share with as too much focused on dell and need to show other cities in India so us RUclips viewers get gimmes on so otherwise they get ideal when they get to decide if want to travel to add their list. Thanks again for your interest making this video willie!
Glad you enjoyed it! After visiting the Taj Mahal, I didn't start filming my "new" vlog, but I wanted to include that footage somehow. So the "time machine" I guess is a clever way of doing it :) As for the cricket, the natural talent in India is staggering. I'm a passionate cricket fan, so I watched a little bit more than what I captured on the GoPro. I have to say I'm genuinely impressed with the enthusiasm of the locals. The used bricks for wickets, which tells you a lot. They may not always have the funds at grassroots level, but this won't stop them from ruling the game for decades to come. Facilities you can build and invest in, but enthusiasm and love for the game comes naturally.
Hi Willie those Bingo chips looked very tasty and the shop keepers are so friendly. By the way that lottery ticket from your older vlog last year that you gave away on the island, did any of the numbers come in?😂
Hi Mary! Yes I did enjoy those a lot. When in Rome, hey? :) I actually met that shopkeeper the day before when I bought a water, and told him I'd love to come back the next day and do a vlog in his shop. He was very happy for me to do so. Supermarkets are not very prevalent in India, at least from my experience, so I was keen to show my viewers an example of a place where many people have to shop instead. Regarding the lottery ticket, who knows! I haven't heard anything yet, but it shall remain a mystery :) Hope you're having a great weekend, take good care!
@@willieexplore Thanks Willie, the evening improved after watching your Agra vlog. The Indian people are very resourceful and love their energy. Those baby clothes looked very different to our baby clothes and very specific to the Indian style of clothing
@@marygird7715 that's great to hear Mary, so pleased you enjoy my vlogs. Yes the cultural differences are stark as highlighted by something like clothing preferences!
You know what Bip, I was really worried about this especially from a content perspective, because rain would have meant fewer opportunity to film. I even packed some cheap disposable rain ponchos. However, I had very little rain on this trip, at the end of the monsoon season. From memory, a couple of weeks before my arrival in Delhi there were floods in parts. So I struck it very lucky I guess :)
No it's your country which needs British. You say it as a muslim or black whose country fares worse than India. Because your comment is completely irrelevant to this video.
Disgusted. I know my country well and with or without your video, would never visit Agra. Truth is, until the day we Indians develop civic sense and cleanse both our cities and our minds, all tourism to our country should cease. That'd be around a thousand years.
Thanks for engaging and sharing your thoughts my friend. The rubbish is definitely there for everyone to see, we cannot ignore it. I have to say, there were some very filthy parts which I did not film, it was that bad. If you don't mind me asking, which part of India are you from? Because I've heard from people in the South that the North does have a problem with waste management and often don't have the infrastructure to cope. I really hope there is a solution.
@@willieexplore I am from the east of India, a city called Calcutta. Not that it matters. The truth shouldn't depend on where one is from. That said, my city is reputed to be the dirtiest on earth. A notch below the rest of India. The trouble is, my comments would win no friends from my compatriots. In India today, you have to say everything good about your country. Whereas it should just be the opposite. We should speak only bad about ourselves. If there's anything good about us, and in India's case that's a very big "if", it's for someone else to say. I don't know what fascination you guys have with my country. In a weird way, it might well be that our dirt, dust and chaos attract you because you haven't seen anything like it.

@@willieexplore No worries dude. Not sure how far behind you are but if still in India I hope you get to Amritsar. That’s my happy place whenever I visit the country.

Nice shoot......🤗🤳 YOUR efforts and Coverage All about 🤳👍....!
Thank you so much for your kind message, this left me super stoked!
Always a fun stroll, interesting chats, and new food-stuffs!! You meet some many neat people along the way. Thanks for sharing, of course.
Always my pleasure Jim! Glad you enjoyed it, Agra was certainly a very interesting experience for me. Hope all is well in Tucson!

So chaotic.. Would never visit in my life
honking is so annoying and some 2000 other things
Don't visit, thank you!
I believe it is healthy to test yourself and experience places outside your comfort zone. But each to their own!
Really?
Seems you haven't even watched even 1/7th of the video.🤣

Dankie vir nog ñ uitstekende video
Bly jy het dit geniet! Dankie vir die saamkyk!
They so need British back in power
The British need indians to take them out of the dark hole they are getting into with each passing day.
I suspect many will disagree, and vehemently so!
No it's your country which needs British.
You say it as a muslim or black whose country fares worse than India.
Because your comment is completely irrelevant to this video.
Says a muslim under disguise.
Come on India is far better than your country.
Hahaha, british cannot rule themselves right now, many are unhappy with the government there. How will they rule anywhere outside?
Disgusted. I know my country well and with or without your video, would never visit Agra.
