    Great Video Gabriel! Bringing back good memories, especially when the hotel that I was staying in, was deeper into an alley from where you stay. This cafe/restaurant is where I always chill out before/after every trip in/out of my hotel!
    May the weather be with you! As the weather conditions during Feb last year was very bad and was force to turn back on the way up to MBC.

    Are dentists reliable over there? I know it is a random question I was just wondering. Awesome Videos by the way! Totally binge watching them! :)

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos
      @GabrielTravelerVideos  7 років тому

      Awesome, glad you're enjoying! Good question about the dentistry. I had a sensitive tooth and had them take a look at it. I guess part of the nerve was exposed, but he said that if he was going to have to drill, they don't use novocaine(!!!). Only for children, not for adults. And so I was like, uh, what are the other options? He gave me some special toothpaste and did a fluoride treatment on it and said it would grow over the exposed part and fix itself basically, which fortunately it did. So as I understand it, he said they don't apply any pain killer when drilling. Maybe there was some slight misunderstanding, not sure.....but if that's the case then no thanks! Thailand is supposed to be good for dentistry though.

    • @Glocsi
      @Glocsi 7 років тому

      sounds scary, hope was a misunderstanding haha. glad everything turned out well! :)

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos
      @GabrielTravelerVideos  7 років тому

      Yeah the tooth hasn't bugged me since then, so that's good at least. Glad I didn't take a chance at having it drilled, can't imagine doing it without painkiller.

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos
      @GabrielTravelerVideos  7 років тому +1

      I've never had a problem with a faulty ATM. You just look for ATMs with the same logos that you have on your cards, so for example for mine I look for the Visa and Plus symbols and then you should be able to withdraw money okay from that machine. They always give you a fair exchange rate, so they're a pretty safe way to go. I've heard rumors of some sort of fake ATM machines but I don't know how true that is, only heard rumors, never from someone who got scammed by one.

      There are copyright issues with using music on youtube. So it can be hard to find local music for a video. I have some Indian songs that I can use so I had to go with that.

    @lpoolfc4879 8 років тому

    Just my opinion, don't like it when you fast forward the video. Isn't travel about the journey, the scenery, local life as it is? We don't really see anything when it goes fast so may as well skip that part out and just make a shorter video. Feel Ike you're going for quantity over quality. Personally would rather see less of the bus journey, bike ride, walk if it means I get to see it in normal speed.
