    You guys really rock! Glad that we found your video ("by accident", searching for vlogs filmed in Bagan)! My wife admires a lot the beauty of and the way "the camera loves" Jess. I very much like how you film and cut your videos, and this part & the storytelling is surprisingly similar to how I would have done it myself. We will be in Bagan this autumn so I'm excited to get a good B-roll there too, hopefully at least halfway as good as yours ;)... Cheers from Romania, cool guys!

    I hired an e-bike in Bagan and it was the best thing I could have done. I saw so much on my 2 days exploring. My rental place included a helmet. I found it so esy to ride, you just had a break and a throttle handle, that was it. The problem with the normal bikes is the sand. I found the e-bike, with a little speed, would just glide over some of the rough sandy paths, but a normal bike would have got stuck!
    Anyway, great video!
