วีดีโอ

First time I opened the video, I said these guys wont do it. You proved me wrong and inspired me to do it next yer. Congrats guys ❤

Top experience step one is avoid the influencer top experiences... seriously

How long did it take to walk from the campsite to the inlet part?

I am planning on doing these same dives in 2 weeks. What camera do you use? And any recommendations on settings?

It's very traumatic when this happens.....I travelled for 6 or 7 years in the 1980s visiting some 80 plus countries and had many bad experiences including several thefts, but overwhelmingly 98% of the experiences were great. You probably have travel insurance so you are covered anyrate.....bad luck about the camera but hey plenty of others on ebay and amazon.....you're alive and uninjured that's the main thing. I was arrested in Islamic Iran and held on trumped up charges....beaten up a couple of times and then released thankfully - i thought i was dead - it was very scarey.....so that's that. You're not poor....you privileged westerners.....so get on with it.

We are headed out to the park Oct. 21st!! I was wondering exactly when you guys were there, as I am hoping for it to not be as busy? (You may have said in the vid I just missed it lol)

love your videos!!!

bravi!

How to get there one day and come back on the another day to Samui if you stay overnight? because most of the tours are for day. is there any ferry or boat which provides that?

Great video as always!! thank you for sharing!

thanks for the info. so useful!

Hi guys, met you in the Philippines, nice to see you having fun ❤

Sorry you guys from all the community we are truly sorry, we all have to be careful everywhere, my expensive headphones got stolen in the US so it doesn’t matter where you are you can get robbed

You are the most delightful couple. Thank you for this video and the Shandoah National Park trail as well. GB

Nice support of abusive animal practices by drinking Luwak coffee 👍

I am seeing this video and I am saying "I want to go there" and I am. Of course I am going to get the right gear and will be there.

El globo turista es común en todas partes del mundo vi una película sobre Italia y sobre la India donde delincuentes adultos usaban a niños para enviar a robar a los turistas ellos bajaban de su escondite hacia la ciudad donde estaban los turistas y les robaban las mochilas lo que podían entonces ahí regresaban y le daban el robo al señor que es un delincuente este tipo de características están en todas partes del mundo incluso en Italia hay unos carteristas famosos el juego de turistas es a nivel mundial obviamente hay excepciones de países pero creo que la mayoría de los países roban a los turistas a veces con métodos violentos otras veces con estafa otras veces con sobreprecios etcétera lo que queremos procurar que en Ecuador eso sea cada día menos o sea respetar al turista porque el turista es quién vienen a dejar viene a dejar ingresos para el país😊

I am from Ecuador and lived in the US for 46 years, now me and my wife retired in Salinas, Ecuador. I give foreigners in Ecuador advice, NEVER, EVER take a bus in Ecuador unless you are poor and you can only afford a bus. There are small vans you can take anywhere in Ecuador and you and your stuff will be a lot safer

Hello guys ❤ greetings from Turkey 🇹🇷

Nooooo Tim tams are not English haha

I am leaving for Bali tonight and you have given me a lot to think about! I loved your honest assessment. I did not know you could get a monkey selfie at the Sacred Monkey Forest and I believe I'll give that a try. I was never interested in waterfalls, but after seeing your video, I may visit a few. Thanks!! Well done! New subscriber here, looking forward to seeing more of your "honest thoughts" videos!

I was born in New York City but my parents are from Ecuador. I have dual citizenship I lived in Ecuador from 2007 to 2018 and I own a house in Guayaquil Ecuador. I will tell you what happened guys the bus drivers helper stole your camera you screwed up when you told the cop how much the camera was worth. that is why he got on the bus ahead of you. he told the driver and assistant that they were going to split the money so basically the cops the driver and the assistant stole your camera. welcome to Ecuador weicome to the third world

If you are seen with an expensive camera, you are going to attract attention, everyone in the crime network is going to know about you.

Thanks for sharing the video for the beautiful fall color of Shenondoah. We just visited the park this month. Stony Man Summit and Dark Hollow Falls are definitely top attractions in the park. I was truly impressed by the stunning beauty of Dark Hollow Falls; they look even more beautiful in real world than in the video.

Her accent is, so annoying. Should be silent

Just wow! doing that and scared of heights??!! My legs were shaking watching this and I had to turn away at times and remind myself that I was watching from the comfort of my sofa. Such a bold achievement both !!

So sorry this happened to you, it’s so hard to keep your guard up all the time, and unfortunately these things just happen sometimes. On a different day, you could have taken that bus with your camera and nothing would have happened. I totally empathize with the violation of your safety though. That has been my experience too. I like the idea of an AirTag, that is something I haven’t thought of yet. I came across this video looking for people who may have had similar experiences to me in Ecuador. I unfortunately got violently robbed with a gun of my less expensive camera while sightseeing in Quito last year, and still am somewhat shaken by it to this day. After spending some days in the hospital, I quickly realized that cameras are wonderful, but they can always be replaced. Also, after enough time passes, you will eventually stop thinking that this even happened. Don’t let unfortunate experiences affect your positivity too, which you both seem to have done. I agree Ecuador is a beautiful country, but robberies are common there. The person who stole your camera is probably sad and desperate, and really just has nothing to lose, but it was their fault, not yours that this happened.

Mahalos 🤙🏾

Im scuba diving there in a week! I'm so excited after seeing your video!!

Wow. What the hell happened to the Gili's? I had heard they'd been developed but I had no idea it was as bad as that.

How did u get that good spot

Great video Thanks for sharing

Can you pin map gold bluff spot you stayed at?

Dam, this sucks! So sorry this happened.

I was robbed in Paris and it's just absolutely gutting. I remember willing myself saying, "Don't get depressed." I was ok, but it's brutal and it's virtually meaningless to the theif in both emotion and benefit. Thanks for posting this. We are heading to Ecuador in February, so this helps us immensely in keeping vigilant. All the best!

Be less selfish, The planet is not only for you, so if you want your photos made, you have to wait 🫸 and learn to be patient..

What tour company did you book with?

My camera stays in a cross body bag straped to my chest when travelling, I travel solo and am so scared someone will do to me what happened to you. So sorry this happened to you

This wasnt a robbery "rob·ber·y noun the action of taking property unlawfully from a person or place by force or threat of force."

things don't change in any 3rd world country. I had a robber block me in on an Ecuadorian bus. Had to shove the guy to side cuz I had a feeling he was gonna try to do something. His partner was looking into another woman's bag. Long behold one of those guys stole a woman's chain. this was 30 yrs. ago

Which tour company did you book through ?

La verda q hay seres humanos q asen quedar mal a un país hermoso Mil disculpas por ellos , Saludos desde Ecuador ❤️

I don't know how to ask this except to just ask it: How do you afford to travel around the world like you're doing? Do your YT posts cover your costs or do you have other jobs or what? I would love to do what you're doing but don't know how you afford it.

@joshandjace

Did you stay in cusco a few days before the hike to acclimate to altitude? Im doing the same hike next month and we are staying two days in cusco before the big hike

I am from Ecuador , this is frustrating and disappointing , that is why I don’t go too often , people seems very friendly but sometimes they are working with the thieves , my kids don’t speak Spanish , and people are always looking at us !! This is too sad but this why I rather go somewhere else.

Interesting story. Thanks for sharing. The only thing I notice that could be improved, in future videos, is the way the man speaks, he sounds like a high schooler (like a teenager) in his choice of expresions. Actually the girl sounds and portraits herself more mature

#6. Don't imagine that another person's smile means what it means when it's on a familiar face. Even someone you have helped many times may have been planning to steal from you. The smile may be a way of gauging how vulnerable and trusting you are. Happens.

Beware - EC is a third world country again. It's no longer really an "emerging" economy country, due to COVID. Unemployment is very bad. There is no real safety net.
