Starting to become addicted to your channel, interesting real world stuff! A couple of questions if you don't mind... Do you type the sub heading commentary yourself, or is is that "automatic", and which camera do you use to make your videos? Good Luck and Happy Christmas from Nottingham!
Merry Christmas back to you. The camera I use is a DJI Pocket 3. For the subtitles, TH-cam subtitle generator has a problem with my accent!! So I usually cut and paste to ChatGPT, then go over it and make a couple of changes. I’m not sure if it works, as I’ve never watched my videos back. Lol
@@olderbackpacker Thanks for the reply, the subtitles work well, just I noticed a slight occasional difference between your spoken words and the text Cheers!
Hi Stu! Hope everything is ok, I'm Marta the bikepacking girl that you met in Kluang, I always watch your video 😊 I loved Trang and the hostel! Hope you will enjoy Thailand and I wish you a merry Christmas! Marta
Very nice video .Trang is a good choice . Another Darlo geezer ( Richie Parkinson ) was there earlier this year and stayed at the same hostel . Merry Christmas and best of luck with future travels.
Merry Christmas back to you. Richie is actually a good friend of mine. Used to work together and I gave him the motivation for backpacking when I was in Central America :)
Delighted to hear of the Darlo connection.Looking forward to viewing your progress through Thailand.Your travels in Malaysia brought back happy memories.
you do go everywhere even the little places, hope the aglorithm sends your vids to those who stay there, at least they be like dang, this guy came visited us.
I prefer to believe they built that clock tower to celebrate the year of my birth. I had a similar dog situation in a (Thai) Temple in Kalantan (Malaysia) one of them had half it's f**king head missing, it was an uncomfortable situation, as for are the dogs racist? YES!!! - They ignored my Chinese friend, but were crowding and barking at me.
23:50 Dogs can smell fear. The more you are afraid, the more they will attack you. Just keep a brave face and ignore them.
I was trying to be VERY brave lol
Great vlog loving this no tourist side of thailand great what travelling is all about
I love the non touristy places! Discovering towns and cities no one’s heard of, including me! Lol
I liked it in Trang some of the restaurants have been there for a long time and the food was delicious

always be careful with dogs anywhere we are.
I’m so careful!!!
Why Trang and not Phattalung?
I saw Trang on the map and liked the name lol
@olderbackpacker Lol, you don't know what you have missed, there is so much to see around patthalung.

Racist dogs!!! Lol I was joking, but who knows!
A place of no history, no name.
But, it’s cleaner than India and all
I’ve not been to India yet! But still clean 🙂
