Vietnam is so inexpensive you can travel the whole country on pennies I hope you stay longer and see more of this amazing country and the people are very friendly and sweet you just need to learn how to say hi and thank you.
@@benjamin__jones Like Billy Crystal said in the opening minutes of his 1989 stand up special from Moscow: "We were told you are the enemy and you were told we are the enemy. And we're both wrong. It's the French."
I found your channel from a Kick streamer that was watching you, now I have binged your vids all day 😁 You have great energy and positive attitude keep it up, I think my favorite vids is the no money challenges 😂 Mate you have inspired me to start traveling the world, its my dream right now.
Vietnam is and likely always will be my fav travel destination. The best food, unreal people, amazing deep and rich history, gorgeous countryside, perfect weather, and no matter how many times you go you will always discover something new. It's truly special.
I'm learning from Simon that to communicate with non-english speakers, it helps if you are loud and wave your hand in their face. Pointing at them helps as well, even if you're the only people there!
Back in the days of my reckless youth, at nighttime my friends and I used to walk out on the catwalk of a train trestle that crossed the Connecticut River, and we would wait there for a freight train to come. On that catwalk we were as close, or perhaps even closer than you were to that train Simon, and indeed, I know how exciting and intimidating that feels...especially so because in front of us, close enough for us to touch was an enormous freight train rumbling on by, shaking the trestle, and immediately behind us, our backs to the railing was a 40 foot drop down in the darkness to a large river! Things we did for fun before the internet was invented.
@hardpaper3192 I love that scene! Two important differences, though. We at least had a narrow catwalk with a railing. In Stand By Me, they had nowhere to seek refuge except to get off the tracks completely!
Not gonna lie, I first thought you and Trek Trendy were the same channel, was always wondering why you sometimes sound like a fun lad just doing whatever is coming across, and sometimes sound like someone with no concept for a normal person's budget. Now I can't help but subconsiously think you're the fun and more chaotic budget-Trek Trendy. I love your videos, and many of these trips are actually pretty affordable. It's giving me loads of travel inspiration so thanks mate!
Hiii, a fellow Lao Cai person here. I just stumbled upon your video and I am very glad that you had a chance to visit my hometown and Hanoi as a whole. I assure you that the place is not a jungle lol. Really sorry about the aircon experience, as someone who had been on sleeper trains for so many times, i'm sure every room has aircon, super cold even. Maybe next time you could address it to those who work there and they would surely help you get comfortable. Anyway, thank you for visiting and I'll be sure to wait for ur next release!
Great Video as always, Simon! 👏🏼 Trains in Vietnam are a great way of travelling the country. If it helps explain the difference in carriage styling, a lot of the carriages that make up one whole train will each be owned by different operators. If you ever book a ticket online in advance (which defo isn’t your style 😂) you can see the different companies and what carriage options they offer Save travels!
Hi Simon, been watching your videos for years now. I am so happy to see that you have finally made it to my home country , I am currently working in London , would be so much fun if I was home at the same time as you visiting the country , would be a laugh to take you out . Enjoy your time there. I am sure our hospitality will keep you happy the whole time there. Safe travels buddy , cheers
simon we want to see more of your travels!! not just the exciting stuff. you say you’re been in the city for days and we all want to see more of your travels!!!
Did this journey 5 years ago and gagging to get back. Hopefully by that time I'll have as many subs as you! (Only 184, no pressure pahaha). Vietnam is just indescribable, it feels like a secret. I'm glad it's getting the credit it's long due as a destination.
In the US we have street running trains that run alongside the cars for a few blocks. There is a live feed of one on Virtual Railfan here on UA-cam. The cam is the LaGrange KY cam.
Came across one of your videos. Worst boat cruise and saw I already subscribed to you. Just love the way you are with the people around you while you travel.
Simon my guy, you're a legend amongst men. love the journey from when your mom dropped you off at the airport, to the travel-hustle/no money skint challenges. i appreciate and always look forward to your content as well as ur content of character! Thank you brotha. -buddahshampoo from los angeles
We have a man sleeping bin thr cupboard - hey, how are you? You're gas, Simon. 😂 And so upbeat and bubbly, you chat up anyone and create friendly banter. Nice trait!
Been subscribed for a long time now and I’ve loved watching all your videos. Recently I’ve been watching back on your older ones then having to stop to watch your new uploads. Loved every minute Simon take care brother
Love this guy but his situationional awareness sometimes is so bad 🤣🤣🤣 Guy brushing his teeth...clearly doesn't want to speak... 'ahh everyone is so friendly' 😂😂😂
2:45 Simon: do u speak English? Woman: no Simon: gate 2A woman: upstairs and to the left 3 seconds after saying she doesnt know English. What a quick learner!
I love this dude he brings some of the best UA-cam content around these days , am no UA-camr but would love to do a video with him , not a lot of people these days do vids like him !! massive respect and love and support for Simon !
Back in 2014 I went from Da Nang to Hanoi by train, 16 hours in an old train where I was sat a wooden bench the entire time keeping my legs raised above the floor due to rats all over the place. Your videos often bring back memories - thanks for sharing

HI SIMON I love you train videos hopefully you make more :)
Vietnam is so inexpensive you can travel the whole country on pennies I hope you stay longer and see more of this amazing country and the people are very friendly and sweet you just need to learn how to say hi and thank you.
Keep these coming. Looking forward to the next video. Can you make it longer, please?
Only if you promise to tell people you're from Wales. I've lived in England decades, but I'm from Wales 😂❤👍🏴🏴
When will you do another cross country SKINT/NO MONEY CHALLENGE?
Simon: Where are you from?
French guy: France
Simon: Nice to meet you anyways.
Yup, that's my feelings on the French as well.
Why?
@@benjamin__jonesThe Olympics opening ceremony tells you need to know
@@benjamin__jones Like Billy Crystal said in the opening minutes of his 1989 stand up special from Moscow: "We were told you are the enemy and you were told we are the enemy. And we're both wrong. It's the French."
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Do you speak English?" "No." "Gate 2A?" "Ah Gate 2A, upstairs" 😂
😂😂😂😂 thanks for repeating that bit
she seemed to kinda light up though when she realized she was able to help
@@KordanorI feel like in her mind she said “OOO I KNWO THIS ONE”😂
@rondonnis6588 i know rude af
@rondonnis6588 she was probably expecting to have to have a conversation instead of a simple question. lighten up
I found your channel from a Kick streamer that was watching you, now I have binged your vids all day 😁 You have great energy and positive attitude keep it up, I think my favorite vids is the no money challenges 😂 Mate you have inspired me to start traveling the world, its my dream right now.
what streamer bro?
The money challenges are freaking hilarious agree with that.
if your dream is to travel JUST DO IT.. dont wait man you gotta take action
I would also travel the world but its too expensive
welcome to the gang mate
"Lorenzo - what a guy!"
Classic Simon Wilson 😂
Half expected him to say the same about the murder hornets
Peter Westberg what a guy 😉
@@SimonWilson12 🤩👊🏼
As another Dutchman seeing Liverpool and Milan fans connecting, Amazing. All countries united.
@@SimonWilson12 😂😂
4:22 “Nice bit of laminate flooring on the walls” had me chuckling 😂
Yeah that cracked me up too
Omg thanks for repeating that bit!
When he’s checking the room too “ a nice wood finish” had me cracking up too 😂😂
Same lol Love Simon’s comedy style
Yes 4 beds in a room, 1,2,3,4 - like we are all stupid and have no idea how many 4 is.
Simons ablity to just talk to anyone like that is amazing lol
Vietnam is and likely always will be my fav travel destination. The best food, unreal people, amazing deep and rich history, gorgeous countryside, perfect weather, and no matter how many times you go you will always discover something new. It's truly special.
Im a Vietnamese and I very thankful. (Im not good at all grammar in English)
Simon just is the nicest guy... plus I think he is truly genuine.
I think this nice guy persona he puts on is an act imo
@@benedward8559 noooo... have you seen shows with his mom
@@LC-r2b no
nah just typical scouser.
He is just the normal kinda dude that makes mundane content enjoyable.. keep it you Simon
2 videos in 6 days. That's what we like... Keep them coming Simon!
Yes!
More to come 😎
I'm learning from Simon that to communicate with non-english speakers, it helps if you are loud and wave your hand in their face. Pointing at them helps as well, even if you're the only people there!
I actually laughed out loud at this comment hahahaha
I always find when they can’t understand the first time, just speak even louder and that normally helps 😑
To be fair, it works
😂

Reminds me of the scene in stand by me
@hardpaper3192
I love that scene!
Two important differences, though. We at least had a narrow catwalk with a railing. In Stand By Me, they had nowhere to seek refuge except to get off the tracks completely!
This sounds more like the Lost Boys train bridge scene. 😄
@eily_b
Indeed... @hardpaper3192 shared your sentiments.
@@eily_b been.
In many ways, yes.
_Except I didn't have to drop off the bridge!_
"no not peanuts, pprrrrringles"
😂😂😂
they weren't pringles brand
@@MostlyLoveOfMusicyes , they were Lay’s in a Pringles style can .
“There’s no food cart, there’s nothing. All there is is that food cart that goes round.” 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 thanks for repeating that bit
I think he meant to say "food CAR" but I agree, it really sounds like he said cart XD
I laughed out load at that part also
@@OGPatriot03 Simon said cart in the U.S. too.
U.S.-english is car, UK-english coach?/carriage.
@@OGPatriot03why would he mean to say food car? What even is a food car and why would it be on a train
He’s definitely gave that beer to the wrong people 😂
💯🤣
I went back and checked and compared, literally took me four times!!! but it was defo them
100% 😂
It is the right cabin but the "party" was already over lol
That was a very short party
I really like how spontaneous and natural you are. Is always fun watching your videos.
8:06 "Good luck brushing your teeth" as if something disastrous was gonna happen while he was brushing his teeth 😂😂😂😂
Made me laugh. Simon is too kind. 😂
That's all you can say to French people😂
Vietnam is my absolute favourite place on earth. The people, food, smells and scenery.. my word. Sapa and Ha Giang 😍😍
Cant wait to go back one day
"good luck brushing your teeth" that has me in stitches 😂
Try to order McDonalds food on a train. Classical Simon 😅

Haha, I love this!
We need more videos and for longer !! Your content is amazing xx
Went to Vietnam this time last year, best holiday of my life .. amazing people and place, beautiful and so cheap
Simon, you're a legend.
Just wanted to say that I love your spirit… You never meet a stranger. Watching your videos makes me want to be more open with people.❤🎉❤

10:07 is nobody going to talk about how Simon just casually lobs his food in the cabin! 😂

Vietnamese are awesome! I’m not sure why I’m surprised but they all are so so nice :) love this
3:45 Simon’s backpack obstructing the dude’s way. “The back pack”… Simon: The what ? My train ? 🤣🤣🤣
"I'm english" sold out your welsh heritage 😄
im from Cardiff doesnt work abroad unfortunately loool, london makes conversations go much quicker
@@djabdicould at least say he’s British
@Crouchback absolutely no chance. What a ridiculous thing to say.
Hi Simon, been watching your videos for years now. I am so happy to see that you have finally made it to my home country , I am currently working in London , would be so much fun if I was home at the same time as you visiting the country , would be a laugh to take you out . Enjoy your time there. I am sure our hospitality will keep you happy the whole time there. Safe travels buddy , cheers
simon we want to see more of your travels!! not just the exciting stuff. you say you’re been in the city for days and we all want to see more of your travels!!!

Travel and culture videos, the man is back
we are all waiting for the duo of you and mashtag!!
Coming soon 👀
@@SimonWilson12that would be some collaboration 😜 I’d settle for the old Mexican trio 🥳🥳🦚
Did this journey 5 years ago and gagging to get back. Hopefully by that time I'll have as many subs as you! (Only 184, no pressure pahaha).
Vietnam is just indescribable, it feels like a secret. I'm glad it's getting the credit it's long due as a destination.
Ok I'm following Simon for now on. This video was edited so good it kept it exciting with no down time.
Great job!!
11.04 pm. Just got in bed, quick UA-cam surf and Simon is in the house. Happy days. Sleep time is now delayed 😁
In UK, we're always told to not walk along / near the tracks... Vietnam... "have a seat right here!"
In the US we have street running trains that run alongside the cars for a few blocks. There is a live feed of one on Virtual Railfan here on UA-cam. The cam is the LaGrange KY cam.
“Good luck brushing your teeth”😂 8:06
😂😂😭😂 thanks for repeating that bit
5:11 directly closing the door and he standing there still lmao.
Lmfao right!?

Watching this as I travel on a bus to the heart of Tokyo! First time in Japan! Thanks for inspiring me to travel Simon!!
I would def play the song “Gandi - Yea Yea” in that luxurious room 😅
Yiu sausage
We have a man sleeping bin thr cupboard - hey, how are you? You're gas, Simon. 😂
And so upbeat and bubbly, you chat up anyone and create friendly banter. Nice trait!
I haven't seen a lot of these videos but what I will say is that it's amazing that with little communication everyone is still happy.
Simon you’re such a sweet and genuine guy. Offering to carry bags in every video and buying those beers 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Finally, old Simon content🙌 Just could't watch the two new ones.
What is wrong with his new videos ?
@lindalove831 in one of them he goes into a murder hornet nest
Sorted the the boys with the beers.Sound.
Damm the Vietnamese chaps faded fast😂
Nice of you to buy them beer boyo I would have done the same.
Been subscribed for a long time now and I’ve loved watching all your videos. Recently I’ve been watching back on your older ones then having to stop to watch your new uploads. Loved every minute Simon take care brother
I’ve missed your voice Simon. Glad to have you back. Let me know when you come back to America so I can give you a first class tour of Florida!!!!!
simon you're always so kind! how nice to see
Love this guy but his situationional awareness sometimes is so bad 🤣🤣🤣
Guy brushing his teeth...clearly doesn't want to speak...
'ahh everyone is so friendly'
😂😂😂
Loving the sleeper train vlog series so far!
No beers needed the party was done. lol. And the security guard on the train reminded me of jaws from bond film 😂
Simon finaly with another banger🔥🔥
Yay!!! Finally a Simon Wilson travel video! 😁
I love how we rarely see Ben Wilson. He’s so chilled. He just does his own thing 😂 (need to see him on one of these types of episodes soon though!)
Watching Simon Vlogs are new addiction ❤😂
Can’t wait to go to Vietnam!!! Looks amazing!!
2:45 Simon: do u speak English? Woman: no Simon: gate 2A woman: upstairs and to the left 3 seconds after saying she doesnt know English. What a quick learner!
Classic 😂
How did she know she doesn't speak English though 😅😂
I remember drunk Simon Wilson dressed up as tomato ketchup! 🤣🤣🤣 we need more drunk Simon! 🤣🤣🤣
Can not believe how cheap places are from the UK
I mean trains to London are so expensive
Wages are lower
This Simon guy is awesome and naturally hilarious. His videos is great entertainment!
Let's go Simon my boy. Cheers to you mate and always looking after yourself.
I spent 3 weeks in North Vietnam. I thought it was great. Everything was so cheap and the people were all so friendly!
Simon is the most friendliest UA-camr ❤️
Always love the travel videos Simon🫶🏻
Good watch & listen Simon. Thanks.
Stay safe with best wishes.
I love this dude he brings some of the best UA-cam content around these days , am no UA-camr but would love to do a video with him , not a lot of people these days do vids like him !! massive respect and love and support for Simon !
your my best travel youtuberz so much respect for you mate keep uploading love your vlogz☺️👍
雨の中大変でしたね！
ベトナムの鉄道に乗りたいので参考になります。ありがとうございます！
It must have been tough in the rain!
I want to ride the train in Vietnam, so this is helpful. Thank you!
Yes! another train video!!!
"Do you speak English?"
"No"
LMAOO
Been watching you all day on your travels absolutely loving it all huge 👍👍👌🙌 from North wales ❤
Simon banging around carrying the case of beer made the video for me.
Then giving it to the wrong people because all Asians look the same of course
Your best series was in Mexico with Harald and Bald. My opinion only mind you..
Simon is friend with everyone, so cute ❤
My social anxiety couldn’t handle a second with you 🤣😂
You know the BO in that one cart was wild 🤢🤢🤢
Really enjoyed this one! I like your train experience videos! That Finnish one was cool and the Scottish one too.
Always love your videos and even more now you’re an LFC fan! ❤
Love Vietnam mate. Saigon is the coolest city ever. Food is amazing. Will be the food capital of the world soon
Watched you for years simon. I would love to have a pint with you man, you are my travelling hero man
Have been waiting for this ❤❤❤❤ my Monday will end well simon
Amazing videos and great seeing other countries just wish I could afford to live like this
I can speak for everyone when I saw, we need more Simon vids.
Another fantastic video mate! Loving all the content as usual.
Never been this early to a vid. Legend simon!!! Wish you'd do a video touring wales, your home
Nice of you to get them guys a beer everyone could do with a mate like You❤
10:00 "Happy days"😂 Pringles and water😅
Back in 2014 I went from Da Nang to Hanoi by train, 16 hours in an old train where I was sat a wooden bench the entire time keeping my legs raised above the floor due to rats all over the place. Your videos often bring back memories - thanks for sharing
The rats were complementary.
9:27 The way you pronounced Pringles at the end had me creasing😂😂
Italian guy was well into his superbikes too, cool guy.
Amazed somehow this is your first time in Vietnam. Please come down to Hoi An Simon ! Got a spare room with your name all over it
The MacDonalds request is funny because Vietnam is the only country in the world where local fast food outcompeted the chain!
Funny cos that guy did say you can buy anything you want.
"If you'd stick your arm out it would take you hand off"
Proceeds to stick arm out...
Oh Simon 🤣
