    3:36 you straight up drove under her house, you don't do that here as its considered pretty disrespectful to go that far into a shop with your bike like that its why she looked confused. there was a perfect area at the front of the shop to park up. remember that for us Thais the smallest common courtesy towards another goes a long way here.

    17:15. Bro, there is no rule about tipping in Thailand. It doesn't matter what restaurant you are in.
    It might be a bit different from western culture. Thai people tip just for reward they deserve such as delicious food, good service.
    Some might tip just because they are simply richer than the people who were working there.

    Been following you since 5k subs. Thanks for the vid.

    • @R3DPR
      @R3DPR 4 роки тому +1

      I was wondering this as well, never heard it before that you tip on restaurants with air-con, I mean whats the logic behind that :D
      And higher end restaurants have already service charge. I think in Thailand it is done as should, you tip for the good service and if you feel like it but if not, no one gives you an bad eye. Where as example US you need to count that in top of menu prices, meaning part of the waiter/waitress salary is skinned from your back because the owner is too stingy to give proper salary. Stupid really, why you don't just include that in the menu prices and pay your staff properly and that way waitress knows what shes getting and you know what you are paying without needing to think over it.

      @@R3DPR I knew how it feels. I was in Germany and they didn't give me back the change but they said "Thats for the tip". WTF bro, ur food was not even delicious until I realise it's actually part of their culture to tip. Well culture is culture, we can't flame it XD

    Way behind in the comments here but I wanted to say a few things. First off I just found your channel a few days ago and I can’t stop watching. I never knew Thailand was so fun. Also, that comment you made about doing these travels alone I can completely relate with. As a automotive photographer myself, I find myself doing the exact same things. Not only is it annoying to people who don’t understand but I also tend to feel anxious because I know who ever is with me is probably getting impatient and I don’t feel like I can soak in the moments. Happy and safe travels, Chad. Keep the awesome videos coming and maybe one day I’ll see you in Thailand!

    Amazing sunset over the Mekong, and those prices. I'm sitting here in Vegas paying 1k a month for a dump. Your bikes are bringing back memories of when my dad had a 250 Yamaha I think and a Suzuki 80. I was about 9, never rode one before and my brother got us going then jumped off, how I stopped I cant recall. There both gone now, but my dad was stationed in the Korean war and Japan, and my cousin would talk about being in Thailand. Ill be looking to see when its better to come over, your tips are helpful for someone whose never been there. I just noticed your bike tour, it looks epic.

Most people would do it cross country style with a big ass cross country bike and pass through all these little shops but you, you just casually drive by like its a local. That's just cool, make me miss home.

Anyway, as far as it goes on my side, be sure I´ll just be enjoying the ride! Cheers! :)

    I suggest you to get a small container for your spare gas tank... just incase..just 1liter is good enough for 30miles.
    Awesome videos..

    Made to the end no problem Chad! Another enjoyable vlog and thanks for answering those great questions. Tow more questions if I may, what is your average speed that you do on your bike 30, 40, 50 mph or higher? And do you have any trouble finding good internet, WiFi etc? Who do you use as a phone carrier in Thailand? I guess that’s the third question 😄? Thanks man and be safe!
