    The hardest working guy in UA-cam land. How do you make a subject like Songkran water fights interesting, after it’s been documented and covered a million times over and yet you’ve managed to do it with wit, fun, ingenuity and originality. Tip of the hat to you.

    my first trip to thailand, i went to silom road to meet a friend for dinner. in the 300m from station to restaurant, i was drenched and covered in clay. never had so much fun. missed it the last few times ive been in thailand but tempted to get a pistol and go back to silom (being around the corner) this time. youre gonna have a blast!
    Just dont swallow the water. Especially in bangkok or chiang mai... klong water!

    The largest amount of motorbike accidents in Pattaya in the whole year happen around Sonkhran, so just be careful out there , keep your eyes peeled and your speed down.

  • @marcp108
    @marcp108 9 місяців тому +1

    Have done many Songkrans in BKK (Silom road and Patpong) and in the bar area in Chewang beach, Koh Samui. Yes, the more you pay for a gun, the better the power. I'll be landing in BKK next Sunday and will promptly make my way down to Hua Hin and will do my best to avoid any water flights. Way too old!

    • @GoneAdrift
      @GoneAdrift  9 місяців тому +2

      Just a small concealed water gun surely!? 🤣

  • @mikeyboy3054
    @mikeyboy3054 9 місяців тому +1

    Recommend staying off motorbikes as much as possible and walk around instead. The accident rate is appalling and even advanced riders getting a bucket of water thrown in the face can have serious outcomes. Lot's of fun to be had but living here it does get old after a day or 2 of it. Have fun and stay safe Sam!

    • @GoneAdrift
      @GoneAdrift  9 місяців тому

      Yeah we may have to retire the battle bike for your reasons!

  • @benshermxn
