Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well. After a very long hiatus from making videos, I am officially back. If you enjoyed this video and would like to see more long form materials please support me on Patreon - bit.ly/3HKJOxC . Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks :)
Hello, my name is João, and I'm from Brazil. I spend 8 months in India doing a exchange, just dive into the day to day and the culture. Today I found your video, I went to some places of the video, Goa and Agra are my favorites. And I get really emotional watching, cried some times. Thank you for sharing your experience and the richness culture that India have! I love the way that you explain and edit, congratulations you have my respect!
Thank you for sharing your story, João! May I ask what the whole trip cost you?
Wow man
But no video to show your trip 🤷🏿
Bro call me my number we are together traveling all india
U have Neymar ⚽🌚🐐
Many thanks for this video my brother. I'm born and raised in the US. I've covered 38 states, so far, hopping freight trains, over the course of 6 years. India and Thailand are my destinations, and videos like this provide encouragement. Much love from a fellow traveler. ✌️🤘
I'm going to be doing this for 30 days starting in January. Really excited to visit India!
Have u visited Amritsar bro
I am from. Amritsar
3000 years ago The Jesus statue floated in and British put it in front of the church. Christianity isn’t even 3000 thousand years old...
Sorry about that, I think he meant 300 years ago.
Jesus statue made from stone floated, is that statue planted just to make a church at prime place??as story dont sound to be true
christian missionaries
we all make mistakes, lol.
Christianity is just 1500 yrs old. During that time Christianity was just limited to few western provinces not in India.
This guy talks a lot truth abt our country . . If any tourist comin to India must watch this video. . .
Mera bharat mahan
I m glad you put that racism thing in....
Unfortunately that's true....but there are approximately 20million+ illigal Bangladeshi immigrants live in India right now ..
Yeah even though Bangladesh have higher per capita income and better GDP than India but still they are swarming our country and especially my state of West Bengal
Get your facts correct
BTW I shut my work at Office and spent full 60 mins to watch this. Totally loved it !!!
I am truly glad that you enjoyed my video. I would post more but I am currently working on something bigger. I hope to see you there as well :)
Hi from South Africa yes your interpretation of India as you saw it is very true I found it interesting to watch and listen to you it was an "honest opinion and I agree it has its dos and don'ts and I like the way you speak and explain yes I have been to india and know first hand what you were talking about 🙏👌
@@AlAminOYT what was the total cost of travel approximation
I leave for India in a week and found this really informative and helpful! Well filmed and honest, this was excellent!
Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it :)
I don't think its informative, just looks like a complaint box
Come to pune
mcmatt9332 I suggest you do more research on places to visit. There are hundreds. MoAlamin has visited a few but not necessarily described them authentically. Goa is a tourist paradise, but he seems to have disliked it!
@@harshareddy8759 that's what we need. Complaints. To improve ourselves as a country.
Goa is one of the most relaxing seaside places I have visited.
Hyderabad is a great juxtaposition of the old and new, the ancient and modern. He did not even mention the Salar Jung museum, the Hussein Sagar lake, the Falaknuma Palace and a few other attractions of Hyderabad. But yes, it is mainly a crowded city.
Rishikesh might have become commercial but it still has a serenity that touches your soul.
I have my law exams coming up but this seems better to watch. And also I'm finally planning my first solo trip to all 29 States of India I hope it turns out nice
I hope you do well in your exams and enjoy traveling solo too. Just remember to have fun and take it easy. :)
@@AlAminOYT thankyou
Even i haven't as a local
India is such a wonderful and amazing land !!!! I visited it this year and....WOW ! I loved it 🇮🇳🙏
Where did you visit?
Welcome to India 🙏🙏
Please visit again 🙏🏻
"WOW! I loved it"...apparently you are lying 1:07:42
Ur welcome to India anytime🙏🙏
Fantastic Netflix needs to give this man a SHOW!
Lol. How much did he pay you?
if they made episodes of diff places around the world I would def watch it
You know what, your right, VICE could also give him a spot as well, well made Documentary and to the point..
It's a long but very relevant video. In the times where youtubers hardly keep you engaged for 10 min video, this vlog is very well produced and true to its nature. Al Amin (if that's the presenters name) is very very good, never pretending, provided honest review. Being an Indian, can totally relate to what is said. And concluded very well...India is a too vast a country to love or hate completely.
I watched this travelogue 3 times. Every time I watched, get amazed. Al Amin’s expression, smiles, intelligentsia and senses are absolutely present him as my little Hero. Love him, and wish his healthy bright future. Needs more videos about Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Srilanka. Unfortunate experience about racism in India. You’re very welcome in USA. Wish to see you one day here in New York.
Thanks for your kind words mate. I am working on a new series right now :) also I am in Montreal so not too far from NYC !!
@@AlAminOYT Al amin..we want more vedios.
Actually to visit india(28 states) so much amazing because india is itself a country of mini world with 100 multicultural diversity
Thanks for your video, I enjoyed it. I just got back from India 6 weeks ago and am going again in October. It's an incredible place and like you said at the end, there are things you will hate but there is so much to love, and I found the people for the most part, so nice and friendly.
What was your favourite state?
Well try friend, but it's not easy to understand India.
Here, it's been given place to many religion, language & culture.
That's why it's incredible India🙏
thanks for showing real india and sorry for the racism
I must say brother you are very honest but at the same time let me be honest with you there are good number of Bangladeshi brothers living in India and working here, so you being Bangladeshi can't be an issue. I know there had been discrimination against Muslims in India I have to accept but trust me it is far far less than all other non Muslim countries,reason of discrimination is less to do with religion but more to with some history of terrorist incidents and politics. My country is largest hindu population country and one of the largest Muslim populated country as well, it is not easy to control 130 crore people with so much of diversity :).I am sorry for all inconvenience you faced here and as you know already we are very far from perfect. I appreciate your good work and honesty as it was not just experience but useful information (which even I didn't know). Just subscribed you.cheers brother.
A quick suggestion bro.. India is not all about a relaxing vacation... But it is about knowing how different religions, cultures, languages, landscapes and many other things living together for so many years .. and thats what is called Unity in Diversity .. Proud to be Indian.. We have problems we are overcoming one by one.. We will one day most craving nation for each and tourist... And about trains visit Europe you will know about the cost of trains..
Probably this is one of the best vlogs about India in my opinion. I’ve really enjoyed this vlog. I would like to say, you have got excellent voice and brilliant way of describing situations. Wish you all the best, bro!
Heey!!!!... I´m from Bolivia... I really enjoyed your video and also liked your opion about being there so honest....Congrats!!!!!...I´m traveling India on March so I found your Documentary helpful....🤗🙏🙏🙏...Have a wonderful day!!!...Send you my best vibes 🙇♀🙏🦅🦅
I love making new friends and I respect people for a lot of different reasons.❤
What stands out for me?
Let’s begin by saying, you’re raised right. Thank your parents for me.
You come across as being extremely polite, traveled light, NO ego.
In dire times, you kept your composure, and diplomacy.
Regarding the bigotry, fuck the haters, they will always be there.
Remember something, ALWAYS be YOU, because everyone else is taken.
Glad you liked my hometown Kochi and your good words
I absolutely loved your film. Watching it felt like traveling with you.
It is informative and personal at the same time, honest, and very well put together.
Truly impressed by your amazing work. THANK YOU !
This is a very good travel video. It's worth your 59 minutes to watch.
Dear Mo--As an Indian living in the UK-I apologise for your feelings being hurt while in Rishikesh. In the 80's I cycled through Europe with little money in my pocket and never faced any discrimination.The Germans were the kindest and not one shopkeeper in Schleswig Holstein charged me for milk and bread -I asked Why- the reply was that I was the 1st brown skinned person travelling through their village.I organise tours to Germany and India and just returned from some of the places covered e.g. Varanasi/Allahabad/Delhi/Agra/Jaipur/Hardwar/Rishikesh and guided a group on bus/train/Tuk Tuks/Rickshaws and had many positive experiences.I have done a fair share of travelling all around the world and each experience enriches us.Please do not give up on your discovery of India and making further videos due to one bad experience.I have been to your country Bangladesh umpteen times and have always been treated like a king.I always say to friends and others - keep travelling and keep smiling-there is a world to discover and we have only one lifetime left to do it.Regards
Just wanted to say Mo just how much I loved your India trip video. A great start to my research for a trip in October. You have the makings of a truly popular travel channel. Thank you 🙏😊🙏
FINALLY! i'm ready to watch this while i eat my shawarma
Also i loved your video, me and my bf watched it before bed time as it felt so chill like a nature documentary, you're really likeable too and have given us motivation to travel ourselves!!!
Glad you and your bf enjoyed it, cheer x :)
Did you find South India to be more travel friendly than North India? I've heard that South India is better for first time travelers to the country. Is that true? The towns near the mountains like Rishikesh also seem more chill and travel friendly. What do you think?
Manali, Rishikesh, Simla , Chandigarh are very travel friendly. Further, udaipur, Jaipur and Pushkar is also quite good for backpackers. Delhi, Varanasi, Haridwar can be a little exhilarating for new persons. But the whole India is vast and every state and city has something new and exciting to offer. Do visit south India and North India for a complete India experience.
@@rahulsharma9699 varanasi was amazing when i went, i still have to visit the south :)
In India, there is much more. In this video, Seems, He has only tried to focus on the bad experiences only.
Please check the particular videos on the cities he has shared.
For example: He was having only 500 INR /day room in Jaipur. Jaipur is costlier because its the capital of Rajasthan State, and also near India's Capital Delhi. Please try another videos on youtube about the royal experiences and great architecture in this City.
We have like everything in India, from a great cruise to a rich living experience.
Peoples are welcoming in India, and they will give full respect and privacy to the tourists.
Here is the more list.
1. Andaman
2. Sikkim
3. Munnar
4. Sri Nagar
5. Thar Desert Rajasthan
6. Raipur, Chattisgarh
7. Pondicherry
8. Udaipur The City Of Love
9. Mumbai Vibes
10. Love Punjab
Great India 👍
❤️ from 🇺🇸
Great work on this film. I've been planning a trip to
India, now I know where to go!
Big thanks for the raw, blunt review of India, which you can rarely find online when planing and searching before going on a vacation. Hope you can also make same kind of videos for other counties ...
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. But I won't do this kind of stuff again. It's way to much work for little to no payoff. Plus I don't travel with camera equipment anymore :)
I’ve finally found a video that shows me the best and not so best parts of India, thanks!!!!!
U r very talented! Nice work. Blessing from Slovakia.
Thanks for your word of encouragement Filip. Love from Canada :)
Ooooh now you're learning about the scams and the bargaining or negotiations. Hhhhhhhh i live in Somalia and thats pretty much how business works here no matter how big or small always haggle .
For example you want to rent tucktuck you argue the price with them before you hop on the driver might say he'll take you to your destination for $3 don't ever accept that bring down the price all the way to $1 or $1.5 no more. and don't forget once you argue with them and you don't find a common ground try walking away they'll call you back..
Jesus! a lot of haters. Just enjoy the documentary and appreciate his effort to share his experience. @MoAlamin good job on the documentary. I hope you do more documentary and hey maybe I can come and join you someday. Stay safe.
Best wishes from Bangladesh, good stuff man. Going on a 30+ days tour in India this Oct. :]
Good content..I like your honesty. Good luck for the rest not your journey
Very good and informative video, probably the best I've found so far. Keep it going my friend !
iam a indian.I now little bit of scams and mainly it occurs in tour places. you explained very well and i like this video very much. thanks for visited india.
Shame you haven't made more travel videos, your content for most is spot on..thank you young man x
Really appreciate that you enjoyed the video. I actually started shooting another series but can't make anything further due to covid-19 lock down.
@@AlAminOYT look forward to this when you continue..all best too you both x
TRAINS. 2 months before I go to India, reservations were already difficult. so I used the services of 12go. Even so, I have all sorts of reservations from AC1 to sleepers hahahaha but I welcome it so I can experience all train classes. Reservation for train seats most especially for long distance trip is opened 4 months b4 the actual trip. Not able to have reservations, I am forced to fly from Chennai to Mumbai, then to Kolkatta. My train reservations will only start from Kolkata until Jaisalmer stopping along the way 4days per city then back to New Delhi for my flight to Nepal. I am excited.
I saw this travel documentary. Unfortunately you had a bitter experience in India. Your attitude is really good and keep it up ! Forget the bad and eventually you will see good things...Nice video 👍🏻
What happened?
this was amazing dude, you did such a great job of capturing all aspects of what a trip to India is really like--more comprehensively than anything else I've watched so far honestly! I'm heading there for the first time in February and I'm even more pumped to go after watching your video. Cheers!
That's good to watch this video..
India is the country where the different religions and cultures and traditions are in.. you will come to know everything in the journey!! Hope you had a good journey! Very informative
You're a superb guide, and I really appreciate the fast pace of your tour. This is an excellent channel. Best of luck!!
I wish I'll go to India for about 45 days like you on Jan 2020. Please keep fingers crossed for me..
Go and have fun.
only 45 days...then just cover only two or three states of west or north or north east or south india... otherwise u will get sick because of sudden change in food water humidity temperature when u move from one to another part of India.
OR u can use Kesari tour company packages which are famous in india. They are affordable and provide everything to make your trip memorable.
Do more travel videos! This was terrific!! Shout out to you boss! 👌🏾 well done!!
U r bangladeshi brother
We love bangladesh
Racism isnt in bangladeah???
I travel a lot but found racisom all over bit or more
Dont care about it move forward
Great to see u back in india
I believe that wasn’t racism. There are many Bangladeshis Pakistanis come to India as tourists and illegal activities. Police do check on the lodges hotels
Thank you for sharing this rich experience! And all the tips.😍❤
I will travel whole India
Good luck
Youre amazing. Honestly i watch a lot of traveling videos on youtube and you reach the top :) Thanks for the great content
Thanks for being brutally honest. It's kinda rare because all I have seen is youtubers exagerating indian food and indian culture just to get more views
wow mate. thats such a good video. much succes and may the algorythm be with you
I watched this entire thing it was very enjoyable, thank you
One of The Best India Backpacking Adventure Documentary! I love it! Keep On Rolling Bro!
Hyderabad is one of most chaotic city in India !!! And btw u look Indian though
Yes it is !! And yess I do look Indian because I am from Bangladesh (which is in the Indian sub Continent) but I was raised else were hence the different prespective on things :)
@@AlAminOYT I did not like the documentary ..... you are not welcome in India .... dont come again
Dude, he's not from India. We Indians are sorry that he looks like us.
Dear Al Amin, Goa has two parts North Goa and south Goa. All beaches you mentioned you have visited there are in northern part, which is like all crowded and Russians. And the other part is the heart, very less people, not like party vibe it’s so different- best time you are here please visit- Cola beach, Palolem beach, butterfly beach and more in the southern side. :)
Hanging out of the Indian train is the best feeling in the world
First of all, me being from India I apologise for the racism you faced and I thankyou whole heartedly for not judging everyone based on that. Secondly, you shouldn't have missed the street food. Its really cheap and at the same time delicious. I really think you would've liked the street food after seeing your reaction to the street food in Agra I think. Although you might have your reasons.
Again, sorry for the godamnn racism!
Thanks for Visiting India. We are very sorry for the inconvenience you had in this country. Thanks for sharing your experiences around the country. Thank you Brother🙏
Great Doc, been backpacking India. I must say I enjoyed going back to the places you travelled. I was scammed too. Travelling to India is a bittersweet experience of mixed experiences. Its both sad and happy but overall thats India. Hope to do the India-Nepal too.
100% true mate. You're always pushing and pulling between hating and loving the country. Also, you will definitely enjoy Nepal, its so much calmer there and the people are absolutely lovely. Enjoy backpacking mate :)
@@AlAminOYT I did not like the documentary ..... others are welcome to visit India....but @MoAlamin you are not welcome in India .... dont come again
I went from Mysore to Hampi in an old, rattly citybus without padding on the seats and stopping to let off and take on new passengers all the time, took forever getting there. So, yeah - I'll go with trains when I visit in december. Really great upload btw, looking to have a been a great trek. Only, you should have gone inland while in Goa. There is some good stuff going on in the forested areas bordering Kanataka.
travelling here is one of my dream. cool vid, thanks!
I watched your full video and like it. There is almost 20 million illegal Bangladeshi immigrants living in india, in delhi alone there population is about 1 million, so that is why may be you faced some rude behavior. But this should not be happened at all to any one who visits India from any country in the world and i apologise for that. I also like your smile, it is the indication that you like your trip to India. And don't mind negative comments, will love to see you again in India if you want to come again 🇮🇳
I really enjoyed this video. Have been to India many times and I agree with most of the things he said. However, as suggested go visit the country yourself. As an African American I've experienced a tremendous amount of racism. However, on the other hand I've had some equally amazingly positive experiences. With all the anti muslim rhetoric today it's to be expected and most of the bombings allegedly, have been done by muslims. Same here in the states the Muslims are looked at suspiciously. Shameful but it's the world we have created. Anyway, loved traveling with you and thank you for taking us with you.
I will be filming this similar route next year
Good luck mate :)
Hey, nice documentary dude! It was super informative and I must say you were spot on for most of the issues in India. For your racism experience, I am sorry you had to face this but we can't solely put the onus of this to police or hotel owners. Unfortunately, India has faced hundreds of terrorist attacks in the past two decades and in most cases, terrorists had links with some of our neighboring countries. So this may definitely cause some trouble, we are absolutely sorry for that, but we can only save other tourists like you or our people by being a little vigilant. For scams, trust me you could avoid most of these just by seeing videos like your documentary or reading on the Internet and YES, Bargain. Thanks again for sharing this amazing video!
India treats all their neighbours like that. They still have that British arrogance, they might talk at oxford union but they still have that old mind set. Everything you said about Rishikesh is true, i did my yoga teacher training.
This was awesome. I loved it.
My kind of dream...will do north east india coming year
Wait trains are expensive??????😂😂😂I totally disagree...
This documentary is 😍😍😍😍, loved it
I loved this documentary :) I really wanna visit India and this helps me planning my trip
MoAlamin
1. Security apparatus of a secular state does not operate based on assumptions, but rather based on statistics. Security apparatus can not infiltrate into one's mind to know he or she was brought up in a wealthier nation away from their country of birth or speaks better English or he or she has just honest intentions. It is not possible for intelligence agencies to gather personal information or do a thourough background check about each International tourist. So they have to rely on statistics and perform routine security checks when it concerns a tourist holding passport with a country in India's neighborhood having porous and sometimes flared up border with India and having sociopolitical unrest, terrorism menace etc within its territory. Illegal economic migration from Bangladesh is a big issue in India, still a poor country itself but possessing major industries and infrastructure and offering better job opportunities than Bangladesh. On the contrary, Indians can not pole vault into Qatar. They have to fly in by plane and clear the immigration and customs so legality is kind of assured. If a legal Indian immigrant commits a crime in Qatar, he can not flee to a country in Qatar's neighborhood expecting locals and relatives to provide refuge to him. A legal bangladeshi immingrant to India can flee to Bangladesh using porous(geographically treacherous and hence often unmanagable) land border after committing a crime in India, no matter whichever country he flies into India from. I am sure Qatar allows legal immigrants after due security checks and keeps a tab on various occasions if those immigrants are from certain countries. In some access controlled Indian expressways, bikers are not allowed and the police took such decision based on statistics that some bikers speed up and show off stunts leading to accidents which can get worse on high speed expressways. This is not racism against all bikers, many of whom drive according to the law. It is a preventive security check.
There is clear instruction on the lower rung Indian hotels to provide information on all foreign clients. If a Bangladeshi passport holder is found to be staying with them, they are compulsorily instructed to provide a recent passport sized photograph along with photocopy of details page of passport to the local police authority so they can verify and keep tab on their locations in India. This security check is based on statistics of huge number of travelers with BD passport disappearing at some point after landing in India (they just mix in with the Indian population and forge documents and sometimes bribe to get citizenship documents to land a job in India without a valid work permit). There is no such instruction regarding BD passport holders staying with upper tier or luxury hotels in India as common sense dictates that an affluent Bangladeshi needs not find employment in unorganised blue collar job sector in India.
After a recent terrorist attack at a restaurant in BD's Dhaka, Bangladeshi authorities decided not to allow international tourists stay with hotels below 4 star ones for security reasons, thus keeping backpackers looking for cheap accomodations away. Why don't you take this as class discrimination?
Your analogy of calling out random Indian migrant in Qatar could make some sense if statistics showed a discernibly large number of indian migrants committing rapes in Qatar or fleeing India after committing rapes in India.
2. Qatar does not have such porous land border with countries like Bangladesh and being wealthier, it can afford to better manage its borders. Still, how many syrian immigrants have Qatar provided refuge to after the the outbreak of ISIS in Syria? Zero. Do you not find racism in that? India has provided refuge to tens of millions of BD refugees historically especially during war in Bangladesh, and a large number of illegal bangladeshi immigrants still live in India. It is worth remembering that India is an overpopulated country with scanty resources compared to oil rich arab countries with sparse population which encourage economic immigration from developing countries for cheap labor inter alia many other aspects of human resources.
Still Qatar till a few years ago did not provide citizenship to naturalised legal immigrants or citizenship by birth. One had to be born to Qatari nationals to get a citizenship. Even though the law has changed recently, there is hardly any instance of Qatar following that in reality. But if a legal immigrant lives in India for 11 years, he can apply for citizenship and generally gets it.
Just like India, Qatar does not provide visa on arrival or visafree arrival to many countries and thus provides preferential treatment based on nationality to certain international tourists regarding entry to Qatar. Such decisions are not based on ASSUMPTION, but based on STATISTICS of ground economic and security realities. Why dont you take offense and brand it as racism?
3. Your sour experience while interacting with locals is born out of your ignorance of the culture of the Indian subcontinent. Brown people of India possess different shades of skin and some are more intensely pigmented than you. The word "black" is not a racial abuse in India as the color is associated with certain revered deities in India's majority religion. Indian rural people find white people to be exotic (as they do not get to see white people as much and also because of historical reasons) but they do not call somebody black to discriminate because many of Indians have intensely pigmented skin themselves. In India, different skin shades can be butt of jokes and Indian people take that sportingly as it is limited to jokes only. Even Indians of darker shades may crack jokes about their own skin color or any other paler skin color.
The fact that you have facial features typical of regions of Indian subcontinent coupled with their observation that you speak English and possess an Indian skin tone and absence of stoic build in your physicality that they associate with Africans or people of african origin made the curious and unpolished masses (these people are not well traveled, some are not educated or worse are illiterate and they are very simple and generally do not hold back any word but that does not imply they would discriminate you on that ground) assume that you were not a foreigner and an Indian, may be a guide or an aquaintance of the tourists who they thought was hanging out with people from abroad which can happen many a time. Same would have happened in your country of birth, BD, where the masses would assume an Indian tourist accompanying white tourists to be one of their own. As the masses find white people exotic and provide some preferential treatment to them (preferential treatment on individual level is always discretionary and you and me can not change that or complain about that) it might feel odd to you as an international tourist of subcontinental descent but let me break it to you that an international tourist of indian descent will receive the same treatment from strangers in India. It is discrimination if they deny to sell something to you at the shop or deny providing basic amenities or stops you from entering some public place based on your nationality, religion or skin, otherwise not.
so true
Very well put comment. I agree with most of the things you say. There are few things that i don't agree with but those can be completely subjective. Nice to finally see a comment that brings actual discussion to the table. Cheers !
@@AlAminOYT you are not welcome in India.....we don't need your certificate.... go away....
The way this guy was complaining about India, I could tell where he was from. They come to India and sham it. I know people from his country here in the US that go to public places, misbehave and tell people that they're from India. Don't bother coming again or have 100 photos with you, they're gonna ask you for more, this time ;)
Knight Of Dawn Don By Night Very well stated. I would give MoAlamin the benefit of doubt due to his young age and ignorance of subcontinental culture.
Dude, I'm sorry for your experience in Hyderabad and as a Baddie, I feel a bit annoyed that you've dismissed the whole place because of the dodgy roadside drink and Ramoji Rai Film City camera restrictions.
I assure you there are loads more interesting places to see in Hyderabad.. Perhaps I can take you around the next time? Xx
Yes, I agree with you. I said many things in this doc that I don't think is right, but given my situation at that moment, it made sense. I am not a big fan of cities but I am sure every city has something unique and beautiful to offer. Cheers :)
Being an indian it's crazy to watch own country from a foreigner perspective but owsm video keep it up
Al, this is a very well done and candid travel guide. If you broke this up into 6-7 10 minute videos with a small aside at the end of you saying “this was just one part of my 45 days, for the rest, go to my channel, yada yada yada”, you would have a ton more views and subscribers. Don’t take this one down, but most folks won’t click on a 1 hr UA-cam video; everyone clicks on multiple 10 minute videos.
Very true
I think I will watch it again (before I’m going to India!). Very interesting film! Salut!
Awesome video. Wish you were creating more. Truly amazing and real. Stay blessed
Thanks and soon !
That was the best explanation of train travel in India i have ever heard. BRAVO. I am coming next month for my 5th trip. This time i will be travelling for 9 weeks. I SO WANT to try general, but i am still chicken :) And you explanation of Rishikesh was SPOT ON! i laughed outloud when i watched. Yes! people buy the bangles and tshirts and headgear and henna and anklets and malas and beads and force themselves to be "spiritual" in these places, but you are so right. You cant make it happen by putting on a costume or going somewhere supposed to be spiritual. I found northern India in the Himalayans to be much more spiritual, or even the dirty alleyways in Varanasi.
you are a genius for the whole world.and you look very handsome.Are you Mr universe
Cheers for uploading Al Amin, great guide 👍😎👍
Come back to india after every five years and you will find something new about it hope you will be back and visit mumbai you will find many bangladshi people are living here and there is no problem they have from other locals and i belive all over india too so plz padharo mhare desh
I love this video and your easy style of narration..I live in candolim in Goa about 5 minutes from where you shot your 'in restaurant' video . I wish I had had the opportunity to meet you:)
Great video, you've got a tremendously positive attitude. Really sorry about the racism!
BIG thanks !!! I LOVED every single minute of this video. It is so much true, there are moments of both love and hate as we travel through this magnificent country. As I cannot travel due to corona situation, this video makes me feel happy in life, makes me feel connected to both trzvelling as India. Am SO sorry to hear about racism. I am a single white female. I never will understand the difference in colour, to me it doesn’t matter at all. It the people who matters the most. Big hug from Belgium and I will definately watch this video again 🙏🙏🙏

Awesome! keep up the good work and stay positive. Personally, it would help me a lot to have a little caption or whatever its called spelling some of the locations. India is a very interesting place.
Thanks for the cool documentary. I lived in India for close to a decade and I am ashamed to say I've only been to two places. I'm def planning on coming back and going to a bunch of places.
