It was great experience in India ,, it makes my second home ,,i travelled 5 times in India from last 4 years ,, specially vrindavan,, varansi,, Ladakh,sikkim ,New Delhi, Mumbai,kerala and Arunachal Pradesh,,you can travel there ,, Love from London
22:25 It is called jaljeera water. It is water mixed with healthy mineral salt, spice mix made of mint leaves, coriender, etc. It is good for health. It will digest the food you had properly. The floating balls on it are boondi, fried beads made of cereals batter (just for making it taste fancy). Sometimes they use carbonated water instead of just water.
Usually when I am in India, I avoid crowded cities. My go to place is Goa ( which is peaceful), Amritsar ( another beautiful place in north India). Manali ( heaven on earth). In Germany I live in small villages for example Ludwigsburg, Apsberg, Baden- Baden, Litchenburg.
What a country this is. Overwhelming, full of surprises, people everywere. It's an attack on your mental wellbeing. I guess you just have to let it happen. Absorb the culture and enjoy the trip. I also follow a fellow motorcycle traveller Marcus a German guy. He is now in India. Incredible what he does. Ok, have lots of fun and see you in the next episode. 😎👍
It really is a place like no other! The senses get pushed even more once we pick the Motorcycle up and venture out if the city. India is not an easy place to travel so big redirect to anyone that does 😎👍🏻. Thanks and catch you again tomorrow as we explore the ‘Slum’ area of Mumbai.
Depends on the city or region you are in. There are places which are very tranquil but doesn't get much exposure in the global media. Most tourists to those places are domestic tourists. We actually avoid places like Delhi, Mumbai because of the chaos
Bro who told you they are in India to relax ? They are in India to earn from their UA-cam channel. 150 crore of subscribers, viewers. Which other country on this planet has that potential? Nobody will quit their job until they earn to some extent on basis of mental well being. They may be broke and may need some extra dollars or euros. Stop judging countries, people and culture based on your mindset. Everyone has their own negatives and positives. Feels like your life is very boring with few people in your life. You need to know what you mean by being social by being in India. Instead of being courteous to public of India you start showcasing as if visiting India is a courtesy from your end to Indian government
Got plenty of episodes on the way 😁 -a nice hot tour for winter. Have you already seen the heading North Tour? ua-cam.com/play/PLl_mRzVHVQ0wBDli8y7IjlY2Q4MBPnA0u.html&si=elYHciRT3d2MjmK6
Finally the first episode😊 Looks like a good start. Just realized we have that circle-echo thing in my hometown Helsingborg aswell. Looking forward to the next episode.
Hey Johan! Here we go! 😊 First day was great and lots to see in Mumbai. Simple things impress us 😁 -that echo circle was awesome! I was like why are we stood in a circle lol
Enjoyed your video sean and emily, what a contrast from outside laundry cleaning to giant modern buildings just a few feet away, And the market was huge and looked like you buy almost anything. Take care and look forward to part 2. Best wishes from Roy in England 👍😊.
Hi Roy, glad you enjoyed it 😊. Yeah the contrasts of Mumbai is what shocked us the most. That market was a treasure trove and hadn’t everything. Here’s part 2, just released it 😊👍🏻 ua-cam.com/video/XXwl5-MovpY/v-deo.htmlsi=fR2AY2Oix6AdK8LZ
Just watched it, what a great start you both had - looks an amazing place to see - look forward to pt2 - just a shame I’ve only got a 4hr stopover there before heading down to Goa - wish I’d planned for a day or 2 there now. Cheers Simon (from instagram)
Hi, thanks! Glad we took the tour as it made the day a lot easier - especially as we hadn’t had much sleep between landing and this day 😁. It’s an interesting city but we are sure you will enjoy Goa 😊
This must has been an amazing experience. Its all jaw dropping what you encounter. Let alone the traffic traffic is a complex experience. I'm really looking forward for the next episode.
Hi Paul, this trip has been exactly that! This was only the first day 😆 We have a couple of more episodes of Mumbai (slum tour coming today) and then we hit road! 😎🙌🏻
Lots of Indian words found their way into seagoing parlance (due to indian crews and ports visited) "Doing a Dhoby" was the common term for doing your laundry and by extension - the washing machine is known (on a ship) as a "Dhoby-engine" I still sometimes revert back to those terms when on holiday with other lads who have been to sea.
That's super interesting! and not Somthing we would have learnt so thanks for sharing that! It's amazing how many phrases and words we use without actually thinking twice about the origin 👍
gateway of India is the very end /edge of Mumbai. You went around -COLABA-what used to be the financial district once. The airport area can be said as the center physically.
Really looking forward to this tour, and great to see Mumbai…4 great meals for 20 quid?…you do remember what you paid for 2 coffees at the top of the Furka or was it Susten?😮😂
Haha we had blocked out the two coffees on the Furka pass 🤣 Yeah 4 all you can eat served great meals for 20 quid -fantastic. Street food was even cheaper (next episode). Started editing the on bike episodes -it’s looking like a good series 😎

Just a tip from an Indian guy is when dining and using your hands, only eat using your right hand. If you are a left, then fine but keep your right hand clean. One hand for eating and one for the bathroom.
Apparently over 22 million people in Mumbai! 😮 -that's the thing with air travel you are just dropped straight into it (this was actually the first long haul flight we have done in 7 years.

Hi, yeah it sure was, especially as we were still half asleep 😁 We have a couple more parts to the Mumbai section and then we pick up an R1250 GS and ride out of the city 😎👍🏻
Hence the giant MUMBAI text written on the Thumb 😉 -there's lots of people in India that still refer to it as Bombay so no harm in having both on there
Your Cityscape guide took you to the wrong street food places to eat. Stick to restaurants which use treated (reverse osmosis) water for their food (curries, etc.). This way you want ill. There is so much I can guide you but will take too long. Please drink only bottled water purchased from a good store. Please keep safe and keep on making these entertaining informative videos! Thanks and loves!😻❤
No he didn't, we asked for a street food tour not a restaurant tour and were not sick after the tour ....the rest of the trip is another story lol. Thanks for the tips and for sure we only drank bottled water with lots of electrolytes 😎
😂 These atithis €xploit€d and robbed us of literally everything and now we seek their opinion/approval about our country and culture! What sick people we are!😂😂 We made exploiters so superior! Here they are taking advantage of Indian viewership for what they care about the most, money! To hell with everything.
You feel you haven't been bothered by hustlers as yet, lucky you then. But if you're travelling South from Mumbai, things will get a little calmer and a wee bit more organized. Happy travels !
I spent 4 months in India travelling extensively with my work, it is as you say overwhelming but mostly not in a good way and would never go back. I was permanently sick with food poisoning.
4 months is a long time to be feeling sick! -it was hard enough for a couple of weeks 😮 It's a juxtaposition for sure. Glad we were able to hit the road and see and experience some memorable places.
Because you have been to Delhi, Varanasi, Mumbai. You should have seen South India, Northeast India, Northwestern Himalayan regions of India. None of those places are overwhelming and extremely clean. Please stop stereotyping an entire diverse country like that.
@@AchaemenidPersia-wl9du I was hospitalised in Kerala (we won't talk about that experience) and I still carry the bug gained there in my system to this day. 🤷♂
You guys visit cities and label it as hectic. Ofc it will be hectic. Its a godam city which is still developing its infrastructure. Unlike China and USA our cities are still developing. Isn't NYC hectic. Go to where local tourists like to go to relax. India is a continent. Search Kerela, Kashmir, Goa, Uttarakhand, Ladakh, Andaman and Nicobar Islands on the internet
@@SeanandEmily If you hate travelling in India, why are you even there? GTFO from there 🤷♂️. I wouldn't travel abroad and disrespect that country and it's people 🤦
@HM-dr4fp Mumbai is Hectic!! and it's nothing like other cites lol We picked the Motorcycle up in Mumbai and then did a three week road trip out of the city. We are not complaining as it's a fun city!
@thesam27hosh who said anything about hating India ??? that's entirely your words lol We had a great time in India and yes it was challenging for us -a different diet, different temperatures, different driving technique =adventure. Perhaps actually watch our first 3 videos before you get on your high horse 😉....and the next 40 or so videos that are on the way that show us having a great time.
I'll give you a tip to avoid food poisoning, don't try too much street food.. go to a good restaurant. Drink packaged/filtered water. See the location of streed food shops and the vendor's process of making food, if it's dirty, please avoid it. Take care... happy journey. You can take help of locals anywhere.
Mumbai is a megapolis. Opulent and dirty at the same time.Not a great India experience honestly. Lot of other appealing places to visit for an authentic "India experience " And the experience is very different for a 500$ per day tourist as against a 50$ backpacker.
It was great experience in India ,, it makes my second home ,,i travelled 5 times in India from last 4 years ,, specially vrindavan,, varansi,, Ladakh,sikkim ,New Delhi, Mumbai,kerala and Arunachal Pradesh,,you can travel there ,, Love from London
great to hear you enjoy it so much! Sounds like you've been to some amazing places! 😎👍
go to whole north east and andman nicobar and lakshdeep kashmir and rajasthan too
22:25 It is called jaljeera water. It is water mixed with healthy mineral salt, spice mix made of mint leaves, coriender, etc. It is good for health. It will digest the food you had properly. The floating balls on it are boondi, fried beads made of cereals batter (just for making it taste fancy). Sometimes they use carbonated water instead of just water.
Thanks!!! That’s the explanation we were looking for 😎🙌🏻. That sounds exactly it tasted so you must be right! Thanks again 👍🏻
@@SeanandEmily Welcome. Ask me anything.
Usually when I am in India, I avoid crowded cities. My go to place is Goa ( which is peaceful), Amritsar ( another beautiful place in north India). Manali ( heaven on earth).
In Germany I live in small villages for example Ludwigsburg, Apsberg, Baden- Baden, Litchenburg.
Yeah one day in the big city was enough for us 😊 -time to jump on the motorbike and head to Goa!
@@SeanandEmily Try to explore south india and northern India himachal pradesh leh Ladakh india it about culture ❤
visit north east andaman lakshdeep rajasthan and ladakh
What a country this is. Overwhelming, full of surprises, people everywere. It's an attack on your mental wellbeing. I guess you just have to let it happen. Absorb the culture and enjoy the trip. I also follow a fellow motorcycle traveller Marcus a German guy. He is now in India. Incredible what he does. Ok, have lots of fun and see you in the next episode. 😎👍
It really is a place like no other! The senses get pushed even more once we pick the Motorcycle up and venture out if the city. India is not an easy place to travel so big redirect to anyone that does 😎👍🏻.
Thanks and catch you again tomorrow as we explore the ‘Slum’ area of Mumbai.
Depends on the city or region you are in. There are places which are very tranquil but doesn't get much exposure in the global media. Most tourists to those places are domestic tourists. We actually avoid places like Delhi, Mumbai because of the chaos
Driving in India is like going to enter a battle field
Bro who told you they are in India to relax ?
They are in India to earn from their UA-cam channel.
150 crore of subscribers, viewers.
Which other country on this planet has that potential?
Nobody will quit their job until they earn to some extent on basis of mental well being.
They may be broke and may need some extra dollars or euros.
Stop judging countries, people and culture based on your mindset.
Everyone has their own negatives and positives.
Feels like your life is very boring with few people in your life. You need to know what you mean by being social by being in India.
Instead of being courteous to public of India you start showcasing as if visiting India is a courtesy from your end to Indian government

Its time to visit Goa for parties and beaches... Which is next to Mumbai
That’s where we are heading! -just need to pick up the bike 😎👍🏻
That station is called Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus and its only normal to remove the old colonial names
Yes we know
❤
🥰
Great episode, Sean and Emily! Day 1 must have been a proper attack on all your senses 😁 Thanks for sharing another awesome trip! 👍👍
Hi, yeah it sure was, especially as we were still half asleep 😁 We have a couple more parts to the Mumbai section and then we pick up an R1250 GS and ride out of the city 😎👍🏻

Is not a bobmay it's mumbai
Hence the giant MUMBAI text written on the Thumb 😉 -there's lots of people in India that still refer to it as Bombay so no harm in having both on there
Hi sean and emily i am aydin u not taking me in video😢
Hi Aydin, this is Mumbai part 1 -you will be in part 3 😎👍🏻
@@Footballers_A1913 here you go 👍🏻

Be careful your inventory 😂
Always 😉
A bit to hot for me, but its going to be great watching your adventure
It was a bit hot for us too 🤣 yeah it’s been a great adventure although difficult at times! 😎👍🏻
Do a tour of Kolkata
👍🏻
Visit Hyderabad
looks great but too far away for this tour 👍
Your Cityscape guide took you to the wrong street food places to eat. Stick to restaurants which use treated (reverse osmosis) water for their food (curries, etc.). This way you want ill. There is so much I can guide you but will take too long. Please drink only bottled water purchased from a good store. Please keep safe and keep on making these entertaining informative videos! Thanks and loves!😻❤
fall ill.
No he didn't, we asked for a street food tour not a restaurant tour and were not sick after the tour ....the rest of the trip is another story lol. Thanks for the tips and for sure we only drank bottled water with lots of electrolytes 😎
Sounds like you did not see modern part of Mumbai or any other in Modern India:
ua-cam.com/video/OcBPvjA-dtg/v-deo.html
At this point we had been in India for 12 hours 🤣....why do we need to see a recently built apartment block?
@@SeanandEmily Then at least Modern Indi via above link
Its Mumbai not Bombay
Sorry but it’s still known as Bombay by a lot of people in India and the world. Did you notice the giant letters on the Thumbnail ‘MUMBAI’ 😉
Atithi devo bhava🙏🏻 its Not Bombay, Correct it. its Mumbai
Funny so many locals didn’t understand us when we said Mumbai -when we showed them on the map they said ahhhh Bombay. So no won’t be ‘correcting’ it
😂 These atithis €xploit€d and robbed us of literally everything and now we seek their opinion/approval about our country and culture! What sick people we are!😂😂 We made exploiters so superior! Here they are taking advantage of Indian viewership for what they care about the most, money! To hell with everything.
You feel you haven't been bothered by hustlers as yet, lucky you then. But if you're travelling South from Mumbai, things will get a little calmer and a wee bit more organized. Happy travels !
You're right! We're looking forward to that! Thanks
I spent 4 months in India travelling extensively with my work, it is as you say overwhelming but mostly not in a good way and would never go back. I was permanently sick with food poisoning.
4 months is a long time to be feeling sick! -it was hard enough for a couple of weeks 😮 It's a juxtaposition for sure. Glad we were able to hit the road and see and experience some memorable places.
@ I’m glad you’re both back safe and sound
Thanks, never appreciated a plain piece of toast as much as we do now 😁
Because you have been to Delhi, Varanasi, Mumbai.
You should have seen South India, Northeast India, Northwestern Himalayan regions of India.
None of those places are overwhelming and extremely clean. Please stop stereotyping an entire diverse country like that.
@@AchaemenidPersia-wl9du I was hospitalised in Kerala (we won't talk about that experience) and I still carry the bug gained there in my system to this day. 🤷♂
India is best to experience through UA-cam, thanks guys for torturing yourselves so i dont need to.
Haha 😂 might be inclined to agree 😁. We had a great time although it was challenging at times -not one of our more relaxing tours to date 😉
You guys visit cities and label it as hectic. Ofc it will be hectic. Its a godam city which is still developing its infrastructure. Unlike China and USA our cities are still developing. Isn't NYC hectic. Go to where local tourists like to go to relax. India is a continent. Search Kerela, Kashmir, Goa, Uttarakhand, Ladakh, Andaman and Nicobar Islands on the internet
@@SeanandEmily If you hate travelling in India, why are you even there? GTFO from there 🤷♂️. I wouldn't travel abroad and disrespect that country and it's people 🤦
@HM-dr4fp Mumbai is Hectic!! and it's nothing like other cites lol We picked the Motorcycle up in Mumbai and then did a three week road trip out of the city. We are not complaining as it's a fun city!
@thesam27hosh who said anything about hating India ??? that's entirely your words lol We had a great time in India and yes it was challenging for us -a different diet, different temperatures, different driving technique =adventure. Perhaps actually watch our first 3 videos before you get on your high horse 😉....and the next 40 or so videos that are on the way that show us having a great time.
I'll give you a tip to avoid food poisoning, don't try too much street food.. go to a good restaurant. Drink packaged/filtered water. See the location of streed food shops and the vendor's process of making food, if it's dirty, please avoid it. Take care... happy journey. You can take help of locals anywhere.
Thanks for the tips 😎👍🏻
Mumbai is a megapolis. Opulent and dirty at the same time.Not a great India experience honestly. Lot of other appealing places to visit for an authentic "India experience "
And the experience is very different for a 500$ per day tourist as against a 50$ backpacker.
We will be visiting many places ....Mumbai was just the first day
@SeanandEmily Nice. Have an awesome journey 👍🏼💐
Its Sea😂water even you digging 20 foot water pond 😅is ready in karachi Near sea after 10 foot water pond ready 😅its science nothing 😅
