I definitely know what you mean about the anxiety thing I challenge myself all the time. I flew to Havana Cuba one time with no overnight stay place previously set up. I walked through the streets of Havana with a small pack on my back traveling very lightly. Found a casa particular and stayed with a fantastic family in their home. I paid a little extra and they cooked a giant smorgasbord of a meal. It fed about eight people. The lady only wanted $10 extra for the meal. I gave her triple.$$$ I’m going to be in Thailand soon with an open itinerary. I’m going to play it as I see it. I do have a destination in Bangkok to sleep off the jet lag from the states. And hang out by the pool and get some good Thai food. Thanks for the fantastic travel videos you inspire me. You should have your own show on the Travel Channel. You remind me of Josh Gates from the travel channel with a touch of Anthony Bourdain. Very enjoyable to watch you should be proud!
Great video Joe 😊 Pai Canyon and Northern Thailand has the best views. We went at sunset, very busy, and didn't chance walking the paths when it was getting dark, some did. By the way we're proud of you too 👏
A great movie Joe. Pai was our favourite place in Thailand after our 1st visit during covid but after the last visit it was too busy and not so great, but your right the surrounding areas are stunning 😊
I arrived today to Pai. My first impressions are not the best. This place feels heavy to me. There is a weird vibe in the air, like if people are here but not really conscious or aware. And I’m referring to the visitors of course. Locals also are not as nice as in Chiang Mai for exemple. If you are in your early twenties maybe you won’t notice it but there’s something unsettling about Pai. But I will stay for a few days and give it a second chance.
....hate to be a party pooper ..and I've never been there but it looks like a town where people go to see the people who are there to be seen(the trendy scene?)...with a diminishing population of the original expats...only a guess on my part but this has happened in other places in the world..
The Chinese village still exists, namely the 93rd Battalion of the Free Chinese who fled from Mao Zedong's Communist Army almost a hundred years ago. They are all Thai people now.
I think I showed you can have your own experience which is great when you go. I don’t like that type of thing but I found my own side of pai which I loved
You are such a lovely man. This is the first video I watch and I'll go to Pai, with little planning.
Simple dinner, but made with love.
That is all you need sometimes!
Wow...that was beautiful! I want to see that with my own eyes! Thank you for sharing not only the views but also a little bit of yourself.

What a beautiful place to explore. The cafe looked so chilled out and relaxing, taking in the gorgeous views😊
AWSOME VIDEO JOE....thankyou so much for sharing such a beautiful and emotional experience in such incredible surroundings....Richard & Oye x
Another wonderful and truly insightful video. Your work is very much appreciated.

By the way we're proud of you too 👏
Very beautiful and relaxing place. Looks amazing mate. I want go there someday also. Thanks for your great videos you do:)
Great Spontaneity Joe 🤗🤗🤗
The road less traveled took you to the old Thailand that very few get to experience. Congrats on getting out of your comfort zone.
Love the video, we will be heading this way soon!! 😊🙏🙏
You guys are going to love it
Pai is in our list of places to visit, maybe later this year😆……loved the video!
You must but make sure you get out onto the loop and exploring
@@hungrytoexplore going to ride the forza350 from Hua Hin…..should be a long ride😬
A great movie Joe.

Definitely "Yes" You support local business by staying at home stay.
Thanks for taking us along! Great video!
Amazing views !!!
ยินดีต้อนรับสู่ประเทศไทย
รอโครงการแอ่วเหนือคนละครึ่ง 400 บาท ไม่รู้จะใช้หมดรึป่าว เยอะจัด 🤣🤣
Great vid Joe,
Was this in September?
Cheers Simon 👌🍻
4 times in couple weeks running into you , maybe Bangkok really isn't that big after all LOL Nice vid man! Congrats on 40K!
I need to think of a better disguise haha
Doing this trip over the new year period.
สวยงามมากค่ะ
Very wise words at the end too Joe 😊
หมู่บ้านสะอาดดี😂😊😊
สวัสดีค่ะ🙏🇹🇭 Enjoy.
Amazing
Nice review!
Thank you
Good one Joe
Thanks Max
Let me know when you’re coming to New Zealand Joe
Ah! When the channels start making more consistent money haha
I like the view 🎉🎉🙂↕️👍🏻
Worth it 👍🏻
Yeah, the walking street was a bit touristy. Once you get out a little bit more, that's when you can find the town's original charm.
hi! lovely video! may i know what camera do you use? :)
Pai is a beautiful and fascinating place.❤
I live in BKK and plan to visit there this coming winter.
Thanks for sharing your journey. (kob khun kaa)
โค้งเยอะ กินยาแก้เมารถ ก้อเลยสลึมสลือตลอดทาง😂😂
Hi when u were in Pai? Heard the bamboo bridge was damaged.
It was okay when I was there, perhaps it was after with even more rain
❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you
How’s the transport there? If someone doesn’t know how to ride a bike.
@@MeraMohito all good my man! Plenty of tours and taxi to take you around

Without a motorbike it looks like you cannot go anywhere. Pointless for me since I don't drive one.
Avoid Pai = Soi Koa San moves on mass Full of drunken Ferang backpackers, eating traditional Thai food of Pizza and watching western movies
I think I showed you can have your own experience which is great when you go. I don’t like that type of thing but I found my own side of pai which I loved
I have been In pai for almost 2 months and 3 more months to go
pai full of farang bell ends trying to find themselves
Let’s hope they do
Have a good trip sir 🙏🏻🇹🇭💕🫶🏻💯
Thank you
