- Unfortunately I am not going to India anymore. Lately in the Himalaya region the weather has been pretty crazy and that was one of the reason why I decided to cancel my trip to India.
In this video I will show you my recent stay in Kuala Lumpur, what is happening in India now and where I am right now. As well as my future plans for the upcoming months.
thank you for watching.

South India is an extremely different world...do visit it some time ❤
I spent some time in south India and I love it! I definitely want to come back there at some point, ideally during the high season
South India is in India only chutiya
It is different..but a lot of similarities as well which is obvious cus its all india
Moonson which starts in Himachal India in July usually is not the right time to explore, like Spitty Valley, Ladhak, April, May is ideal time. Acclamatised you have to.
I agree with you. and India is Safe.
leave him brother. he is not getting India. then his passport will be denied😜🤪😅
Thanks for the tips
@@ridewithgabi hi there , you should come to Nepal. 😊
In Ladakh l ideale ci sono stato é da giugno ad agosto per non avere il freddo, non piove.
Hello brother, you are right - your caption was confusing. When you say you are not going to India anymore, it means you would never go to India as if something bad happened. If you had said, you weren't going to India now, that would have been perfect. I wish you find peace of mind, enjoy life and come to India when situations are safe.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Please avoid Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand in monsoon. Landslides, cloud burst and floods are very common during this time and it is very risky.
Late Sep to Nov - mild winters
Dec to Feb - winters (snow and very low temperatures in many parts)
March - spring
April to June - summers
July to Sep - monsoons (risky)
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the update. You'll always have our support, friend, regardless of where you go. :) And it'll always be someplace awesome. India will be there, meanwhile, enjoy beautiful Vietnam.
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Wow! Welcome back vn. Happy to know you chose vn as one of your favorite places to visit again especially when your plan is canceled suddenly
Man, Vietnam has a really gorgeous countryside, I never would of guess it was Vietnam 7:00. The media just doesn't show this side of the country.
Gabi...sorry your trip in India was interrupted by the weather..I was very happy to see Ploy in the video, she looks healthy and recovered from her accident. God bless both of you, we pray for you to continue on your journey in health and travels. Concentrate on all the joy you have given us over the years.
Thank you 🙏🏻 yes Ploy has fully recovered luckily
I didn’t even make it to India, I cancelled my flight and went to Vietnam instead 👍
HI Gabi, Always good to watch your travels, enjoy your videos. Know you are struggling, sometimes, some of the hurdles in life can be brutal. Hang in there and I hope and pray you will overcome in the end and get back on a happier, peaceful footing. Keep safe.
Good decision, Gabi! During the monsoon there are many floods and landslides in the mountains. The roads are often impassable. Right now in Uttarakhand they are telling everyone to stay home and avoid travel. Things should dry out by October. The high passes start to close up with snow in late November but up to 8,000 feet the roads are ok then.
Thanks for the tips. I don’t know why I was told summer time was the best time to visit 🫤
@@ridewithgabi summer is best time to visit. Where there will be no rain or snow in mountains. It is best to travel
@@ridewithgabi indian summer is long over... its monsoon time in india now (rainy season).. unlike in europe india have summer rains, not winter rains
Gabi, Andrew here. Well, happy to hear about your return to Italy. I love Italy, it's my favorite state in Europe. I managed to visit your country 3 times in 7 months. Hello from Romania. Hopefully, one day you will make some videos about my country too. Greetings.
Glad to hear that Andrew 😉 it’s always nice to be back home for a while
All in good times Sir.. will be looking forward to your upcoming Himalayan trips
I understand and respect your decision to not go to India Gabi.
Vietnam is my most favourite place in Asia!!! Please step away from the tourist areas of Vietnam and show us the real side!
I've been there 4 times now, and can't imagine where else I would rather be than Vietnam!..... ❤️❤️
Go up north and do Ha Giang if you haven't already. It has some of the best bike riding roads in the world!.
Yeah Vietnam is very special. It’s really growing on me.
I think this time I will not do the ha Giang loop. Maybe Ninh Binh.
I will come back for some proper motorbike trips :)
@@ridewithgabi from what I understand, there has been a fair bit of flooding in Vietnam as well.
I have seen some pretty sad images from Da Lat concerning landslides.
Stay away from Hue and Danang during monsoon season. I have witnessed it first hand in Hue, wading through waist high floods to get to my hotel
Stay safe my "V-twin" brother. ❤️
india has HIMALYA DESERT BEACHES WATERFALL ETC GREAT HISTORIC TEMPLE $ MANY OTHER THING.... but some sterotype people only think india is only delhi mumbai tajmahal
Man, I was excited for that India trip so much, your India vlogs are best in the yt, hope you get prepared and rearrange and will do that in the future - it could be epic! Peace and love.
I appreciate it 🙏🏻 I will definitely be back to india for that roadtrip
Always great footage and drone flights ! appreciate absolutely your honesty, and i love to see your explorings with lovely Ploy. Your vlogs and travel thrue India was one of most amazing i`v ever saw about this region. So sad whats happen in India 😥but such is life... Happy to see you in Vietnam, great decision Gaby, Thy ! see you, stay well...✌❤
Thank you so much :) I hope to visit india again soon
YAYYYYY! ❤ Vietnam, would love more videos from there. I love Hoi An too. Miss that place. Enjoy yourself
Thank you ☺️ Hoi An is a very special place indeed
Hi Gabi!! It,s great to watch you back!!! Thank you to show us throuhg your eyes 😊 Big Hugs ❤
Good decision!! Heading to Danang/Hoi An in August and the entire month of November. Love Vietnam!!
It’s a beautiful country! Have a great time 😉
Good thinking, next time .
Love your videos always enjoyable that hotel in KL looked amazing what was it called love KL
Looking forward to seeing Vietnam.. enjoy
Mr. Gabi: Thanks you so much for this new remarkable video today’s about India to shows about the deadly disasters that took in July of 2023❤❤❤I wish you the BEST in peace 2023❤❤❤
Fully understand your decission. India can be tricky. It is actually always tricky. 5555. Take care, Gabi.
We will wait for you you are the best ❤❤
Gabi - loving your channel and following along with your adventures. I found you preparing to go to Rishikesh (love that episode) and found myself pulled int your other videos. You’re very talented and I learn from your approach and attitude to overcoming challenges. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much 🙏🏻 I am glad you enjoy the videos
❤ Stay safe!Have a good time in Hoi Anh ❣️
Once again, nice video. I love DaNang and Hoi An, I spent 10 days in DaNang in May and once again stayed at the Seashore Apartment Hotel. It had been three years in between trips to that area and I could not believe how commercial Man Thai beach in front of the Seashore had been built up. I was very pleased that the Vietnamese Government had invested in infrastructure during Covid. I drove north to Hue and Phu Bai and did not recognize a lot of areas because of the road improvements. Have fun during your stay…
Yes it’s such a beautiful area 🇻🇳 and it’s developing very fast Indeed
Great video! Can you make a video about the best countries/ cities to go during different times of the year? I have had about three holidays badly affected because I went when the weather wasn't suitable :/
That’s a good video idea. Even though it’s so hard to predict the weather. Especially on islands and tropical places
Hey Gabi.
As in another comment above monsoons are not really the best time to go up to the Himalayas. The best time is Sept - Nov. And then you can head down to South of India, the spice mountains and give it another shot March-May.
I have been hiking in the mountains since i was six (yes my parents were irresponsible 😂) and you do get a lot of altitude sickness if you travel up too fast. But if you take it slow and stop at multiple spots on the way overnight your body will adjust to it.
Flash floods unfortunately happen a lit because of all the build up and construction.
Also you should try out the other side of the Garhwals. Places like Har ki dun and the Valley of Flowers 😊
Thank you for the valuable tips 🙏🏻 wow since 6 yo. you must have a lot of experience 😉
Actually the northern Himalayas in India are not under the influence of the monsoon. There is a mountain climate instead. But it's true that this year we've had a lot of rain. See my comment above.
Indeed Gabi,
The best weather slot for the Himalaya is September October. Just as the monsoon relents and before the passes close. The harvests are coming in and there are lots of festivals. Good times all round.
@@ridewithgabi btw Gabi, if you want to know more or need help planning let me know. My mom is still in India and is always travelling and used to plan out all these trips. I'm sure she would be happy to help :)
always a pleasure Gabi, stay well 😊
wiat till october then the weather will be cool and dry and you will enjoy your biking journey through India
Exilent choice Gabi Hoi An is perfect relaxing place and Vietnam is my favourite in SE Asia. I look forward some vlogs from Nam 😊😉
July and August are in fact the best time to go into the heights of the Himalayas. Than surely the roads are open. But indeed this year we've had a lot of rain (and snow in the higher regions) and the level of the rivers and lakes are high, Dallake and Nageenlake (in Kashmir) levels are about half a meter higher than same time last year, when actually the levels were extremely low.
I wouldn't worry about altitude disease when you travel by road. This problem mainly occurs when you fly straight from Delhi to Leh. But if you ride first to Srinagar (or Manali, depending on which route you take first), stay there for a few days, your body will already adapt to a higher altitude. The main thing is to not rush and than your body will adapt automatically. This is how I use(d) to do it, than there is no issue whatsoever. I live in Srinagar. CU next year! You're most welcome here. 😉
Hoi An is very peaceful ancient town in Vietnam, I would love to go back again. Thanks for sharing.😇
It is so beautiful. In the next video I will show more
Just from the rice field I could tell you where in Hoi An. LOL. One of the best places to just chill and enjoy. Can't wait to get back.
Totally 😊 I love this place
best time for Himachal Pradesh india is May June as it is not that cold also it is not rainy season at that time . from their you can go to heavenly pretty Spiti Valley and Ladakh which are cold deserts and receive very little rain throughout the year.
Gabi summer month in india is march,april,may,june, Monsoon starts from July, August, September, i wish very soon you come to india Mumbai as well with ploy , i missed your videos so much man 😊❤️
Thanks for the info, I was doing the wrong planning obviously 😅
Basically tourism in India is going down and south east Asian countries are becoming very attractive for tourists few months ago even I visited Philippines Thailand Vietnam and Malaysia it was a memorable experience
Nothing new with this that south east Asia is more popular than south Asia
Wise decision Gabi.
Happy to see your smiling face and the beautiful drone sequences. So amazing! You are wise to follow your intuition and go where you find peace and harmony. We look forward to seeing you in Italy!
Thank you 🙏🏻 😊
Hey Gabi, I am your subscriber from India (Himalaya region).
Yes, monsoon is there but you can visit India. Our government works frequently on blockage roads and highways.
Great for you taking care of yourself and keeping your trip wonderful >…………Namaste
Hey Gabi! Great to see you enjoying yourself in Vietnam. Can't wait for upcoming videos from you. As I've never been (not yet) to the country it would be interesting.
Regarding India, seems like a very wise decision considering what was your plan. Anyway, I'll like to thank you for these videos on Kuala Lumpur my friend. That was my home for some years....always good to go back there. Enjoy your day/night. Ciao. Till next time. Om shaanti from North Germany. One Love ❤️💛💚
Thank you 🙏🏻😊 Kuala Lumpur is a city that I really like. And for sure I will show more of Vietnam as well. It’s a very beautiful place
@@ridewithgabi you're most welcome ! KL left a big Mark in my life personally. Still got friends living there for over 20yrs. Looking forward to your next vid. Enjoy your day Gabi, I'm getting ready to work in bakery. Cheerio
Wow. This kind of content are way much better than today's hollywood & bollywood movies. Honestly. Love from Nepal. 🇳🇵⛰️🗻💚☘️. Safe travel sir. Gabi
I been from delhi to Leh (3500 m ) by fly , then by walk until 4200 m altitude was no problem at all for me
I really hope you will go back to the indian Himalayas! HP and Ladakh are number one! Enjoy your stay in Hoian and please get better soon.❤️
Thank you 🙏🏻
I touched down in Delhi the day of the floods, I was due to go to the Himalayas. I had to change the area I went to, but I still managed to go and completed my expedition. Himalayas are waiting for you next time :)
It was good to see your video, I go there (KL) on friday 😎
Great, enjoy 😉
Hoi An is such a beautiful happy place. Hope your mental health improves!
Thanks 🙏🏻 yes Hoi An is so beautiful, I will post a new video soon
Come to India in September to April. Weather is cool and pleasent during this period
Himalayas the worlds highest mountains and the weather is always a challenge there.. but they are the most beautifull and must visit adventurous place.
The natural reason behind these massive disasters each year in Great, middle and lower Himalayan regions due to plate tectonics. The Himalayas are the youngest folded mountains in the world. They, indeed, move continuouly. Therefore, It's better to avoid during monsoon season which is from July to september. But, there are also anthropogenic reasons like deforestation, mining, climate change etc.
During 2020 Covid Pandemic lockdown, I stumbled across the music of Mizoram, India. I saw music videos in Zorimawi and MDM channel and I was impressed by their music. It sounded like 1970s USA. My 5 favorite Mizo Artists are the following:
1) K Hminga he is like Bob Dylan and Mark Knopfler combined
2) Kimkima he is my favorite Indian artist in Modern times.
3) C Sanga lived from 1974 to 2017
4) Sangtei Khuptong
5) Mami Varte
My 5 favorite Mizo songs are the following
1) Zorinzuali Khiangte: Pawmalai Tingtang this song is like Stevie Ray Vaughan House is a Rockin or Stray Cats Rock this Town.
2) Sangtei Khuptong: Di Ruk Te, this 2023 song is in disco form like Gloria Gaynor I will Survive
3) Cassettes: E Khai, this 2021 song features slide guitars and sounds like Elmore James, Muddy Waters or John Lee Hooker.
4) Kimkima: I zun ngaih lunglen Vangin, this song is like 1970s rock song from 2019.
5) Zo Rock: Thahang Ngainhnobein, this song is like Scorpions Winds of Change.
Honorable Mention Anthem of the Hills.
India is not just that. It’s huge. You can still explore South India. That’s where you see the actual India 🇮🇳
Gabi, it's always amazing to see your travel videos. Being an Indian, I respect your views about my country. Keep exploring India. You may also contact me for anything in Delhi region and I would love to connect you.
The monsoon in HP can run from June/July to September. Not a good time to travel so you made the right decision. Every year parts of the roads get washed out.
I didn’t know that. Thanks for the tips
Hallo Gabi..verstandige beslissing!🍀🌻
I am taking care of my brother he has 4 months to live because he has a brain tumor m. I usually watch your show . It has been a month. I finally remembered how much joy you bring into my life . Thanks
I am really sorry to hear about your brother. ❤
I pray for him and I am glad you enjoy the videos 🙏🏻✨
As a person who knows this area very well, I will say October second week will be ok for you to visit.
Thanks!
Even explore North East of India. Dargling, Guhati, sikkim, for mountain views. Visit Munar in kerala just mind blowing
Gabi, many tourist become very poorly due to the high altitude in the Hymalayers. Many of these have long lasting effects & some never recover fully.
It's imperative that anyone going there acclimatises properly in advance.
You made the correct decision.
Ah wow.. that’s good to know. I will make sure to plan in advance and be fully ready before the trip
Monsoon season definitely not the time to go up the Himalayas Gabi , good decision mate
Gabi buona decisione di soggiornare a Kuala Lumpur.The Petronas Towers sono opera dell'architetto argentino Cesar Pelli.Lindo viaggio.Regards from Buenos Aires City Argentina
Grazie, un abbraccio 😉
Good to hear you cancelled it. You should not do a himalaya tour during peak of monsoon imo. Go before or after or at the end of monsoon e.g. september or early october. Later on (november) snow will come at higher altitude. Therefore also don't go to late if you want to go high up because you don't want to be stuck in the snow on some far away place. Just google climate of the places you want to visit. You will see huge amounts of water fall July-August causing landslides etc. You will put yourself at risk by going that time so good that you postponed it!
Summer and winter are the apt time to travel not rainy season
you should explore valley of flowers, bike ride in chopta road, rudranath trek im uttarakhand. and best weather would be mid sept to mid october
Come to Dehradun, NEARBY Rishikesh, beautiful, safe and amazing
You shoudl also expore wester ghats... Start from Mumbai > Pune > Mahabaleshwar > Satara > Kolhapur > Goa > Mangalore > COORG > OOTY > Munnar > Kerala... Also can start trip from Kerala to Mumbai... it will be one of the best Trip of your life
Hi Gabi. Love watching your videos. Just a bit disappointed that a kind thoughtful man like yourself would stoop to using clickbait.
I think there is nothing wrong if the title delivers the content. And in this case it does.
For me it’s a subtle line between teasing the viewer, playing with the algorithm and delivering the content 😉
At the end of the day is just a video…
Hi Gabi,
I am Luckas, I am from Brussels, Belgium.
I spend 4 or 5 month months a year in India for 20 years.
I was very interested by your video about mental health.
To be honest, Mother India help me a lot against depression etc...
In Europe it's easy to stay alone be sad 😢 anxious 😖 etc...
But in India, people like to talk, they need to interconnect with each other. This life style suits me much better to fight the nasty depression.
It's so important to share your experience, your feeling. And to share the life of the person you are talking.
I will be in India from January to April 2024
Are you planning to be there ?
I will be very happy to share my impressions with you if you have a free moment.
Thank you for reading me,
Take care, stay open and positive.
Luckas
Thank you Luckas, I totally agree with you. India really helps a lot 🙏🏻 unfortunately in January I will not be here anymore
Brother, please must come Jharkhand (INDIA)once.❤
Which program for editing do u use
iMovie
How long are you here? I'm going to do a solo 🏍️ trip starting in HCMC in mid August, I live here for work. Would be cool if our paths crossed!
That sounds fun 👍 I am leaving already by the end of this month
@@ridewithgabi too bad! Maybe next time
Good decision Gabi. Excited to see more of Hoi An.
😍😍
❤
It is better to avoid the monsoon period in India. Do come after September.
Thank you… I didn’t know that
Glad you didn't plan a visit now. Avoid the Himalayas in monsoons. With climate change weather is getting worse with more flooding. April or May would be ideal to do a bike trip. Goodluck
Dude summer in India is April to June. After June it is monsoon season who said this wrong info? Upto September it will be monsoon. After that you can visit . But after November it will start to get snowfall. So you can visit during September to November or April to May.
How you took drone shorts in KL. Is it allowed?
Mmmm…. It’s a grey area
Hi gabi i was in the same condo in Kuala Lumpur, a beautiful place
Nice! Yes it’s a nice place. Probably the only downside are the elevators. Too crowded
@ridewithgabi exactly, i talked with the staff, and they told me they opened 2022
You must visit Kerala in south India Gabbi, you will love it !!
Perfect decision: never do a travel esp. A challenging one, if you are not in best mind and body 'shape'. Traveling is challenging, esp. nowadays. And, yes, do South India, awesime temples there, start at Kanyakumari, Madurai, Chennai with awesome carvings of Mahabalipuram nearby, Gangaikondacholapuram, the awesome Brihadisvara temple, Padmanabhapuram Palace ( biggest wooden palace worldwide mentioned in the Guiness book of records) in Thiruvanantapuram, Sri Ranganata Swamy Temple in Tiruchirapalli, all this Dravidian architecture is mind blowing!!! The south is awesome. Don't miss it🎉❤
Thank you for the tips.. yes I definitely want to visit south India again
Its raining heavily here day and night 😅
Gabi Plan your Himalayan trip in India by End of September or Early October.
Thanks for the tip ✌️

@@ridewithgabi Thank you, Gabi. Your channel is incredible. I always wait for the next video, which I know is a new great experience.
Gabi what camera you use?
Gopro 10
Monsoon season is considered to be the low season for travel.
drop India for now , but I guess you must redo that in a near future, I really enjoyed that one.. RIP for the victims . . .Hope you enjoy it plenty, in Vietnan
Don't say you aren't going "anymore". Just don't go during the monsoon season!
Well, based on the end of the video, you plan to go after the monsoon season. So, "anymore" means the same thing as "not again". Maybe next time just put that you've "delayed" your trip to India.
@@nealwright5630 Yeah, but this brings more traffic to the site! Maybe the title made more than a few Indians unhappy though.
That’s the worst period of the year to visit India due to the monsoons..
Are you booked ticket just for trip in Himalayas, as there's lot of things in India to explore which many still don't know, I assure every things is the world have and you can see in India all of them 😅,
By the way, if you visit once again in India your subscribers will be grown speedily more than right now, believe me
india has HIMALYA DESERT BEACHES WATERFALL ETC GREAT HISTORIC TEMPLE $ MANY OTHER THING.... but some sterotype people only think india is only delhi mumbai tajmahal
You never go to northern India HP after 13/6 it’s monsoon season. Do research on weather conditions before visiting anywhere
There was no need to cancel India trip.
There are hundreds of other places which you could have explored.
Go to the islands of India, Andaman Nicobar and lakshadweep
But yes there were problems in a couple of places on some areas of the Himalayas. But there are many other Himalayan areas that are safe. I’m a regular traveler to India and I think you over looked other options and you lost your money unnecessarily
I think your depression that you where talking about on earlier trips is more a form of anxiety burnout, its mental burnout because of all of the excessive thinking you doo. If you work on your anxiety in stead of the depression it will help, so your problem is quite treatble and that's the good news :)
Yes, it’s mainly social anxiety… which if it goes too far it turns into depression.
I have been struggling pretty much all my life… and I am working on it
Hey gabi you should see jatayu monument its the only bird monument in world and visit ellora caves its a temple which is build by cutting one mountain size rock and people say its build by aliens but its not true our ancestors were great ahead of thier time and one more thing kamasutra is not a position it tells you the great spiritual value of sex consent pleasure energy its importance and many more
USA has the highest crime rate, drug use and dirty cities like New York. Please make a video about the same
Just go in the dry season. 🙂
Come in October and November
You can go to kashmir ir visit norteast❤
