For those who dont know - Mick J is a regular in Jodhpur since late 70s...He really likes the folk music festival and the deserts. Hardly anyone knows him there as well so he can chill on the side too.
I never knew that what a fact!!! ❤❤❤ He had good taste as although much developed still beautiful. Yea city gates ..Remember a couple she was older than him a taboo!! They were so in love, they ran tiny cafe like a home from home on busy market day. 1 tip for female travel is to wear nothing sleeveless kaftan over pants or leggings perfect as you fit right in and people respect you a lot more than!❤❤
Wow Gabriel, Jodhpur seems to be especially intense in some areas, even more than other big cities of India. The street musician was unbelievable too!!
18:02 There's a famous Bollywood song from 1955 called "Mera joota hai japani" in which the actor Raj Kapoor sings about how his shoes are from Japan, his pants are from England and his red cap is from Russia but his heart is Indian. It is very popular to this day in India and even in The Soviet Union countries and Eastern Europe. Looks like Gabriel re-invented the same concept except the last part.
The large building you were referring to is Ummaid Bhawan Palace, where the current maharaja resides and its worlds largest residence, its worth visiting.
I'd prefer to watch this over Tv these days. Love the realness of your videos and you have such a good personality that comes across well. I agree with others on here, you should be at 1M subs+
I’m catching up on all your recent videos tonight and loving them. 👏 Also, I have to agree with a couple of the comments here. Why this channel doesn’t have a million subscribers is something that has puzzled me for a while now. This channel should have AT LEAST a million subscribers and then some.
I have been in Jodhpur many times between 1999-2008 in business! Many nice places to visit in the city and its surroundings! Very interesting to visit Basni phase II, a lot of small workshops and industries, furniture's, handicraft and so on! Hope I will get back soon again!
Because alot of young people nowadays just want all the gimmicky videos. The type where people say 'I'm going to walk around the most dangerous part of the city' or 'how much can I get for 10 dollars a day'. They're not interested in pure travel videos.
@@witlof5492 tx for reply. Yeah I only watch Gabriel because he is authentic and knowledgable about countries he visits. I ,ve got no interest in the younger you tubers haha. X
This is just a theory of mine, but if you compare Gabriel with other travel vloggers like Bald and Bankrupt, Harald Baldr, Kurt Caz, who all have 3 million+ subscribers each. Those guys are always interacting with people, which makes for good entertainment. Gabriel for the most part, keeps to himself and just talks to the camera. Another thing with those UA-camrs, is they only post a few videos a month (if that), where as Gabriel posts videos daily, which makes his channel over saturated with videos…. This is just a theory of mine, since I’m not an expert on UA-cam subscribers. 🤷♂️
@@jeffryan7262 hi. An interesting analogy. Always good to receive a different perspective. Firstly, in my opinion there is no comparison between Gabriel, a veteran of 32 yrs in the business, and the likes of bald @ bankrupt. I do agree those you tubers interact with more people, but dont you think its just for views? Are they normally in real life so chatty and extroverted? We dont know. Yes Gabriel keeps to himself though I dont think he is an introvert persay. Followers of Gabriels in my humble opinion are more articulate, genuinely interested in the history of each country he visits and dont go for the hyped up entertainment videos. I find Gabriel in a very different class to the others in terms of his "realness". He said he is not phased by the number of subs he has ( he has never once mentioned hey guys like and subscribe). He is confortable financially and more driven by his love of history, random wanderings around the world and different style of engaging with us through talking to his camera. It feels like taking a stroll with a good friend and genuine interactions. Thanks for your comment x
@jeffryan7262 Gabriel may have made a rod for his own back regarding posting videos daily. I know that if one doesn't appear, I'm disappointed! On the other hand, that shows I'm a faithful follower, which can't be bad. In my opinion, Gabriel's shortcoming is that he doesn't seem to have an affinity for foreign languages, something the guys you mention do have. I think that may be a reason for limited interaction with locals. Like yourself, this is just an opinion.
Hey Gabe just wanted to say, of all the musicians you've filmed and captured through your lens in this series, this one sounded the most melodious (in my personal humble opinion). Keep posting. Cheers.
Hello Gabriel, another amazing episode thank you. The story of the guy who met Mick Jagger is very interesting. I am copying here what I saw online about it. "Mick Jagger's coming on a culinary trip to India. The Rolling Stones' lead vocalist will be in Jodhpur between October 21-24 for the Rajasthan International Food Festival (RIFF), which is being organised at the Mehrangarh Fort. Jagger is the patron of the festival with Maharaja Gaj Singh" (The Times of India)
You almost made it to the best samosas in town at 17:26. Get back there if you can. I yelled out (from Melbourne) as you walked past, but the traffic noise drowned me out. Notice the crowds. They cook on the right side and sell on the left. The crowds stand there waiting for the next fresh batch. The deep fried chillies also worth a try. I was standing there with the family a couple of years ago and a local told me it was like their version of McDonald’s. I’ll be back to Jodhpur for the samosa’s, one of the best forts I’ve seen in India, and the town that is amazing in blue!!
Agree totally became entranced with magic city and never wanted to leave.. one of first places saw in 2 months in India and had to prise myself on plane as had to book onward ticket... shedding tears as I went.
Sadly these days people are following the same crowds, its like they dont have their own thoughts on what they like. Eg. Someone follows bald @ bankrupt, tells his/her friend and that friend says yes yes ill follow him too! Thats why Gabriel stands out as genuine because he is not lumped together with the other same same content creators. Lol.
Agree totally he tells it how it is he inspired me so much. Hard as v limited in funds and cant negotiate hills hence costs more but do my best. Gabe is as good as it gets and not too proud to continue hostels and basic rooms. I went to Jodhpur and it doesnt get any better than that. Seem to remember negotiating a tuk tuk. And managed to climb up to fort as a v cheap guide took 5 of us and he had asthma so understood exactly, no pressure made it to top. Jodhpur stands out as 1 of finest places seen in my life, saw many many places after but that was best as was solo travel, joined smallish groups but although saw so much didnt like it anywhere near freedom of solo!!! Remember a lovely lassi at a famous little cafe within central gates with Indiwn people at my side. My accommodation was a kind of b and b and v basic and cold at night but views were amazing from rooftop and was pure magic. I long to return to India. Humble people there abd oh so kind for no money tbh as they gave me many free things like food and flowers and help when waiting for bus that never came ❤❤❤❤ Forget insta this is best ever...
Went to Engineering school late 80s in Jaipur. Few of my classmates did have Mick Jagger sightings in Jaipur back then, and yes, at least those guys knew who Mick Jagger was.
Bloody good show! Mr Morrison. Alright alright;) Craig the totally hooked Gabriel Traveler fan UK... Everywhere gets blessed with you in town. For sure. Hi to Jodhpur too. I want to go there God willing;) Have a great day Gabriel.
Fun fact for all the Gabriel Traveler fans - Jodhpur pants (usually worn when playing polo) are named after Jodhpur (as the Jodhpur State, also known as the Kingdom of Marwar), the second-largest city in the modern Indian state of Rajasthan.
City gates closed at night as I remember may be or not why you went around. Thank you for this. Undrrstand how you re making conversation and like to hear about your life keeps it real..
Hi Gabriel, very surprising day going through and seeing the busyness around the city's constant commericalism never get used to it. That instrument was interesting has a violin bow but reverberates like a horn. The Maharaja palace was incredible that marble is priceless how old is this building it's in pristine condition.
Thanks Gab, that maharaj palace was really next level ! Was that some kind of white rock or. Marble used in construction ? The sound track also was nicely matched to vision ! Enjoyed that . Brilliant. 😊😊😊
So pretty! Love that blue! Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day…. Doesn’t fit for you for sure!! Maria Montessori was brilliant, brave (especially as a woman)trailblazer for educational reform. If only traditional approaches had all been replaced by that method.
Ambiance filled with spirituality, mystery & mysticism...And then you cannot stop wondering how such marvels could have been carved into stone so many centuries ago...Some engineers, designers & architects they were!
Was at Jodhpur with my friend last year, interesting city but quite chaotic on market days. Nice stepwell to visit, some locals were diving off it. Looking forward to the fort visit :) Some nice rooftops around the area you're staying for an ice cold beer with view on the fort. Have fun Gabriel. Jaipur next?
I so love all the colorful clothing of India. Very enjoyable walking tour. I am curious what the instrument the music man was playing. I always wonder how it is with kids running around and the cows and dogs roaming around. Hope they are taught to stay clear and not bother them.😊❤
this video has somw abstolutely wonderful atmosphere. I love the scenes that do not necessarily show the city's grand vistas and scenery although it has that we well.
We would never know of these great places had we not seen your vlogs. Rajasthan, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Jaipur, who knows how many such places are there nearby. Hopefully people don't lose their traditions and old cities while modernizing. I would rather walk thru these ancient streets and visit old temples than thru streets of skyscrapers.
Yes, it would drive me insane! BUT...with such chaotic streets, I'm sure that letting people know you're there has prevented countless accidents over the years!
We Indians are noisy at home, traffic is just an expression! That's why some Indians would leave everything and meditate in the mountains....so all these yoga, spirituality is basically the outcome of being noisy!
With vehicles and padestrians passing through blind spots in narrow lanes from opposote directions in congested greenfield cities, overcrowding by lazy padestrians on streets and them crossing roads ar their whims, slowmoving carts (sometimes pulled by cattles and even humans), encroachment by vendors, stray animals roaming about, unruly drivers, honking at times is necessary and after a while it becomes habit even for somebody not fond of hobking, out of overarching frustration and desperation caused by getting stuck in traffic without any intervention by traffic sergeants.
You made me laugh with the "days of our lives" soap opera reference Gabe! Perfect quote for the clock tower. BTW, when I was living in Dhaka in the early seventies, everyone referred to the three wheel taxis as "baby taxis". The term rickshaw was reserved for bicycle powered vehicles only. Just wondering if that baby taxi reference is still being used.
Very nice series Rajisthan I have watched jaisalmer now watching Jodhpur very informative video will you please makeb v❤🎉ideo of Riyasat Bharutpur it will be most nice of you.
Obviously boys didn't comprehend what you were asking them. Yes the fruit you saw was Guava (first and third hand carts) they were ripe (yellowish white colour indicates they are ripe, otherwise it would be green). Please try some ripe Guava fruits (after carrying them to your hotel and washing them). In the middle cart, they were selling "KINNU" which is very much similar oranges, and tastes good. Outer skin is to be peeled for Kinnu, just in a way similar to Oranges. BTW, Google says Hotel Nirvana has rooms which cost about 33 - 35 US Dollars
Question - I am a teacher who has 7-8 weeks off in the summer. I know summer us probably not the best time to travel in India but... If you only had 7-8 weeks to travel around India, what would you recommend visiting? Itinerary? Thanks
Probably best to head for the Himalayas since other parts of India will either be scorching hot or else very wet and rainy during the summer. Look into McLeod Ganj, Manali, Ladakh, Sikkim. I was in Rishikesh and Delhi in June once and it was around 115F. So you'll need to get up into the mountains to get away from the heat: ua-cam.com/video/KI5t7U7gucI/v-deo.html
Luckily not even close. I would hate to be recognized everywhere I go. But it was pretty cool to meet someone who had met one of the GOATs of rock'n'roll.
Hi Gabe, big fan. I’m a few videos behind when you were in Ladakh at the high altitude. Your smart phone probably has a feature on it that will tell you your exact altitude. If not, there are several apps you could download 🇮🇳
Looks like you’re not too far from Ahmedabad, Gabe. If you happen to be there on the 15th or 16th it would be great to meet up. Lots to see and do there, from the Gandhi ashram to an epic night food market. We’ll be staying at the Deewanji Ni Haveli nearby. It could be a place you go through en route to Diu, the Rann of Khatchh, or en route down to Mumbai and Goa. We are in Delhi about to head south to Orchha, Khajuraho and Varanasi before flying to Ahmedabad on the 14th.
Have you considered getting some business cards or stickers with your channel name that you could hand out when there is a language barrier with people you meet? Happy Travels
Jodhpur is a very cool place and Mehrangarh fort is simply amazing. Please do try the Laal Maas which is a meat dish and speciality of that region. I also stayed somewhere around where you are staying. The only down side was the racket from the early morning prayers from the mosques and temples around. Was very loud and annoying.
Always enjoy your videos. Can't remember if you have covered this on one of your back at home video walks, but what travel or health insurance do you use? I will be retiring in 2 years and plan on doing the "Slow Travel" outside the U.S. and only returning about every 6 months. Thanks & Safe Travels.
please can I ask you, My husband 72 and I 64 really thinking of spending 2 or 3 weeks in Jodhpurs, mid Jan 25. We hope it will be warm sunny days but not too hot. I passed through on a tour many years ago but did not stop. I have found a little haveli that has peaceful,gardens. Do you think this would be too long to stay there? A mix of stopping resting then out into the bustle! I want to really get into one city!
It might depend on how long your trip is. I can't say whether you would enjoy it for two to three weeks since it depends on how you travel and what you would be doing with your time. But you might want to also look into Jaisalmer and Pushkar. It could be nice to spend a week in each one if you want to see a little more, because they're all worth visiting.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos many thanks for quick reply. We would be there for about 2 or 3 weeks. It’s more to stop and sleep, rest in the lush gardens of the little hotel and then intense times in the blue! I am drawn to it, I don’t know why. Great video. Looks like we would be quite safe there. Getting older now!
Back in my teen days,I was into Deep Purple,UFO and Black Sabbath,Rolling Stones was never on my radar,and yet the song “Wild Horses” always appears on my list of all time favorites..Great vlog as always.
I guess it depends on what you mean by traveling. Last spring I flew into Portland, Oregon, picked up my car, drove down to California and Nevada to visit family for a couple weeks, then drove back to Oregon, parked my car and caught a flight to Europe. Before that, the last time I was home in the US was for Thanksgiving last year, again for a couple weeks. Basically I head back to the US once or twice a year to visit friends and family and otherwise I'm traveling internationally for most of the year.
Gabe, if I recall you mentioned in an interview with a woman with the last name of Dunn, I believe, that you had given thought to getting some place to live in for a period of time. Is that something you still consider? Thanks.@@GabrielTravelerVideos

@@GabrielTravelerVideos Those were the days of Cold war, so you can understand
Gabe should have worn his cool ethnic looking hat. Love the marble architecture and stylish clothes worn by locals
Your vlogs are like breaths of fresh air for a majority of people stuck in their daily routines
The large building you were referring to is Ummaid Bhawan Palace, where the current maharaja resides and its worlds largest residence, its worth visiting.

Hope I will get back soon again!
That area is so populated now! In past 15 years it has become an urban center in itself
Always baffled why Gabriel,s subs never go up. His Indian series is incredible! If anyone watching has not subbed, please consider doing so. ❤tx

Outer skin is to be peeled for Kinnu, just in a way similar to Oranges. BTW, Google says Hotel Nirvana has rooms which cost about 33 - 35 US Dollars
Question - I am a teacher who has 7-8 weeks off in the summer. I know summer us probably not the best time to travel in India but... If you only had 7-8 weeks to travel around India, what would you recommend visiting? Itinerary? Thanks
Probably best to head for the Himalayas since other parts of India will either be scorching hot or else very wet and rainy during the summer. Look into McLeod Ganj, Manali, Ladakh, Sikkim. I was in Rishikesh and Delhi in June once and it was around 115F. So you'll need to get up into the mountains to get away from the heat: ua-cam.com/video/KI5t7U7gucI/v-deo.html
Gabriel is almost as famous as Mick Jagger 😁
Luckily not even close. I would hate to be recognized everywhere I go. But it was pretty cool to meet someone who had met one of the GOATs of rock'n'roll.
I agree, especially in India he is stopped many times by either fans of his channel or just for a chat 😊
Mick Jagger was here. Strolling Bones.
Hi Gabe, big fan. I’m a few videos behind when you were in Ladakh at the high altitude. Your smart phone probably has a feature on it that will tell you your exact altitude. If not, there are several apps you could download 🇮🇳
You're probably right, I'll have to give that a try sometime. Cheers.
Looks like you’re not too far from Ahmedabad, Gabe. If you happen to be there on the 15th or 16th it would be great to meet up. Lots to see and do there, from the Gandhi ashram to an epic night food market. We’ll be staying at the Deewanji Ni Haveli nearby. It could be a place you go through en route to Diu, the Rann of Khatchh, or en route down to Mumbai and Goa. We are in Delhi about to head south to Orchha, Khajuraho and Varanasi before flying to Ahmedabad on the 14th.
Good to know. I'm catching a flight out of Jodhpur today, but not too far away. Enjoy amazing Orchha.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos Thanks!
Have you considered getting some business cards or stickers with your channel name that you could hand out when there is a language barrier with people you meet? Happy Travels
Jodhpur is a very cool place and Mehrangarh fort is simply amazing. Please do try the Laal Maas which is a meat dish and speciality of that region. I also stayed somewhere around where you are staying. The only down side was the racket from the early morning prayers from the mosques and temples around. Was very loud and annoying.
You’re a busy man Gabriel enjoy your work ✔️
Good morning from Arizona 4 AM 52 degrees
The hospitals over there must be pretty busy, that traffic was nuts
Gabriel has to start learning these local dialects when he goes to India...
32:03 he should start up his own UA-cam channel....he was awesome!
Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us, same as it ever was
I was there in 2005
Always enjoy your videos. Can't remember if you have covered this on one of your back at home video walks, but what travel or health insurance do you use? I will be retiring in 2 years and plan on doing the "Slow Travel" outside the U.S. and only returning about every 6 months. Thanks & Safe Travels.
lol! can't believe that guy met Mick Jagger! Insane
If he didn't have the video I wouldn't have believed it. But it was definitely him. Pretty wild.
Wow I am new subscriber watching from Uganda 🇺🇬 in africa your welcome to Uganda I will host you I am also content creator
😊😊😊❤🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦
please can I ask you, My husband 72 and I 64 really thinking of spending 2 or 3 weeks in Jodhpurs, mid Jan 25. We hope it will be warm sunny days but not too hot. I passed through on a tour many years ago but did not stop. I have found a little haveli that has peaceful,gardens. Do you think this would be too long to stay there? A mix of stopping resting then out into the bustle! I want to really get into one city!
It might depend on how long your trip is. I can't say whether you would enjoy it for two to three weeks since it depends on how you travel and what you would be doing with your time. But you might want to also look into Jaisalmer and Pushkar. It could be nice to spend a week in each one if you want to see a little more, because they're all worth visiting.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos many thanks for quick reply. We would be there for about 2 or 3 weeks. It’s more to stop and sleep, rest in the lush gardens of the little hotel and then intense times in the blue! I am drawn to it, I don’t know why. Great video. Looks like we would be quite safe there. Getting older now!
Back in my teen days,I was into Deep Purple,UFO and Black Sabbath,Rolling Stones was never on my radar,and yet the song “Wild Horses” always appears on my list of all time favorites..Great vlog as always.
Listen to "Beggar's Banquet", one of their best albums.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos
Listening to “Sympathy for the Devil”.
Was at their Voodoo Lounge Concert in ,95 in Johannesburg South Africa. Incredible band.
I stayed in the hotel just next to your hotel in the same street
Bob Marley... when you arrived in New Delhi.

great video as always, when was the last time u stopped travelling, im intrigued
I guess it depends on what you mean by traveling. Last spring I flew into Portland, Oregon, picked up my car, drove down to California and Nevada to visit family for a couple weeks, then drove back to Oregon, parked my car and caught a flight to Europe. Before that, the last time I was home in the US was for Thanksgiving last year, again for a couple weeks. Basically I head back to the US once or twice a year to visit friends and family and otherwise I'm traveling internationally for most of the year.
@@GabrielTravelerVideosGood, keep on truckin'.
Gabe, if I recall you mentioned in an interview with a woman with the last name of Dunn, I believe, that you had given thought to getting some place to live in for a period of time. Is that something you still consider? Thanks.@@GabrielTravelerVideos
Bro you should also visit to Eastern Himalayas state Like SIKKIM AND ARUNACHAL Pradesh.
You will be find another level swag of adventure.
He did do sikkim iirc. But yeah would love to see Gabriel do the og northeast
Interesting fact, Rolling Stones logo was inspired by Kali a Hindu goddess. Mick saw her sticking her tounge out and rest is history.
I am Bengali and I have never seen Durga with her tongue out. that got to be Kali.
@@sourav3392yup, my mistake
