You are such a lovely man. This is the first video I watch and I'll go to Pai, with little planning.

Wow...that was beautiful! I want to see that with my own eyes! Thank you for sharing not only the views but also a little bit of yourself.

I definitely know what you mean about the anxiety thing I challenge myself all the time. I flew to Havana Cuba one time with no overnight stay place previously set up. I walked through the streets of Havana with a small pack on my back traveling very lightly. Found a casa particular and stayed with a fantastic family in their home. I paid a little extra and they cooked a giant smorgasbord of a meal. It fed about eight people. The lady only wanted $10 extra for the meal. I gave her triple.$$$ I’m going to be in Thailand soon with an open itinerary. I’m going to play it as I see it. I do have a destination in Bangkok to sleep off the jet lag from the states. And hang out by the pool and get some good Thai food. Thanks for the fantastic travel videos you inspire me. You should have your own show on the Travel Channel. You remind me of Josh Gates from the travel channel with a touch of Anthony Bourdain. Very enjoyable to watch you should be proud!

Always taken aback when I hear Channel Islands randomly on the internet—I'm from Guernsey. Thanks for showing us Pai. I'm headed solo to Chiang Mai in May for 2 months, hoping I'll get some time to check it out. Did you get an international drivers licence beforehand?

Pai - Soppong- Mai Sariang - Mae Sot - Doi Inthanon was alright when I cycled through in 1993. Already then Pai was a sarong sportin' Euro playground.

Great video Joe 😊 Pai Canyon and Northern Thailand has the best views. We went at sunset, very busy, and didn't chance walking the paths when it was getting dark, some did.
By the way we're proud of you too 👏

[KTT_-vwur]

If you go to Nan Province - Boklua / Span village you’ll love it less tourist, mountain view is amazing especially during rainy season

[FOCUSonASIA]

4 times in couple weeks running into you, maybe Bangkok really isn't that big after all LOL Nice vid man! Congrats on 40K!

[wycheee]

A great movie Joe.
Pai was our favourite place in Thailand after our 1st visit during covid but after the last visit it was too busy and not so great, but your right the surrounding areas are stunning 😊

[billmoeller]

The road less traveled took you to the old Thailand that very few get to experience. Congrats on getting out of your comfort zone.

[hunterkonrad]

Pai canyon’s fun to explore. Gotten lost in there a couple times.
