Gabe is probably the last youtube traveler who uses his senses and asking people around rather than finds a way with smartphone. And it's super cool
It's fun to get lost, if you're in the mood for it.
Watching you travel in India never gets old lol
Excellent. The best is yet to come.
It's fun to see my own town through someone else's eyes 😅
It is shame on our part to view the external look of the spirtual place without feeling the. inner feeling if the Hindus
Very good shooting and very good coverage of Rishikesh.Thanks a million.
Enjoyed watching the video & thanks for posting!
Cool, thanks.
Gabriel I love your videos. You show the true essence of the people , towns and cultures of the countries you visit. Not just all the touristy places.
Very nice inspiring videos . A good sorce of information for travellers. Its amazing to see the amount of energy you have for travelling and exploring new places and also cary a camera filming the entire trip with a live commentary. Really really amazing.
Wow, india is beautiful. I know it isn't everybody's cup of tea, but living in a dull american suburb where every house is basically it's own island, i like the chaos and sense of community you see there, as with so many countries
likeliterally: you are so right. American suburbs are beautiful but depressing
i am indian
LikeLiterally, thank you for your intelligent words.
Me too! No one can accuse India of being boring!
U must visit rishikesh india
Love your videos bro!!
Great video! Thanks, mate.
Dear Gabriel let me first thank you for showcasing India to The Western world. You are doing this in a good manner and I am happy that you did not show any disrespect to the less decent things. You have a good knowledge about India and Rishikesh in particular. This video blog of yours reminds me of a Japanese TV show named "somewhere Street". I have been to Rishikesh several times but these Street Views I never had a chance to have. This is your second video I have been watching. the first one was how expensive is Rishikesh. I suggest you watch some episodes of somewhere Street on TH-cam and it will help you create more better videos. Please keep posting your beautiful videos as many like me would be waiting for them.
Great, thanks for the feedback.
Excellent videos, from years past to now. Always give a thumbs up even before watching because I know it's going to be great. I love walking through those towns with you. Thank you Mr. Morris
Sweet, thanks.
Contagious your videos are, thank you!
Namaste🙏Great Videos Gabriel...keep moving with ur adventures.
15:15 exactly where I had a bathe in the Ganga for the first time :)
Thanks for all the great India videos Gabriel, really connects me back there.
Great video!!!
I love the videos, really nice, thanks Gabriel
Superb video clips Gabriel👌 thank u very much for sharing. Hope i can go there one day.
Rishikesh looks pretty chill and clean...thx 4 sharing
Another fab video!....
Cool, thanks.
Nice videos and Precise information.. God bless you
Always enjoy when you walk around the towns.
Love that this video is educational. The painting at 12:00 is amazing, and that was a nice man you met along your journey before you got lost in the maze. 😊
You are my most favourite TH-camr who does travel videos.
i just finished seeing your new video that you put up a few minutes ago and now on to this one yay i am excited love seeing your videos and thanks for your videos :)
Jessica Garcia Guerra tourists yo all...be in touch if wanna feel the real india
Jessica Garcia Guerra ok
i am indian

good, interesting foray into the unknown
It's fantastic to see people's reactions when you go somewhere that isn't often frequented by tourists!
nice video. good job
The lassy always looks so good. I want to try one some time
love your videos bro
I used to operate the white water jet boat above Rishikesh 30 years ago. There is so much to see and do around Rishikesh. I had encounters with tigers, black leopards and elephants up the river and in the valleys. You can head up to hike into the Temples of Shiva way up the Ganges. Go in before the snow melts and there is almost nobody there. Go quick before you get too old.
Beautifull video sir...
Love from Uttrakhand (India) 🤗
Loved it! really loved the way the river looked at the end during the boat trip
Awesome thanks for amazing video from my country that’s my fav place to go too.
That was funny....the green of that wall WAS really close to the usd lol
Omg you crazy moving around mazes..
It's Monday here, Canadian Thanksgiving, but a subdued one because it's 2020. These TRANSPORTATIVE videos have special value at present.
So much better to watch Gabriel than listen to the morning news. (Tim Ferris is so right about media fasts).
In a contest between cyclical broadcasting of perpetual anxieties and issues or a street level Utube Travel Video humbly presented, there is no contest.
Nice video, I been to 4 Himalayan temples. Beautiful place must go there in May first week. For Yamunotri and kedarnath u can hire horse or go by foot. Gangotri and badrinath direct bus.
Hi Gabriel, I love your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Greetings from Brazil!
Thanks, I appreciate it Felipe!
Very impressed with your knowledge of india. They are your best videos. The India ones. So interesting. Thanks dude.
Hope to see u back again in India
Was in Rishikesh for a week. Love this place. Have you seen the nilkanth temple it's 20 km away from Rishikesh ?
Yeah I hiked up to the Nilkanth Temple once.
17:20 Beware of those pits. They could be a place to do their washroom activities. Also, they usually have an understanding which area is for men and which for women. and if you are in the women's section...for you it won't be an issue..but for an Indian man they could think he has bad intentions
10:10.. I see.. You have learned to cross the roads the "Indians" way..🙌
That is exactly how we do.. Nailed it.. 😃
Great!👍
Gab when all the rivers merges in ganga (specially Brahmaputra river) around west Bengal they form the biggest river delta in the world it becomes miles broad there.
15 return on the boat....good fun!!!!
Nice video
Nice!
Dude, I was in Rishikesh for one month doing a Yoga course and I didn’t even realize that there is actually a real town called Rishikesh away from where all the tourists stay. So, a big thank you! However, please let me give you one seriously good advice. Never use your left hand to point, touch (“Jesus”), accept food, money or anything else except to wash your butt with water.
It never ceases to amaze me how many times I see foreigners in Asia use their left hand. Yes, I know some locals do also but that’s usually a sign of their disrespect of the person they’re dealing with.
Brilliant.
Been to rsikesh.beautiful
I love this vídeo, kiss from Brazil. Nasmaste
tudo bem Amiga eu indiano
namaste
The UN should make you an ambassador of tourism. You leave a trail of class, humbleness and honesty wherever you go. It's prevalent here when you decided not to expose the "slums" for what they are for our benefit. We can feel the sorrow that you do in these situations. Once again you're an exceptional person and we are lucky to have and learn by you.
I would agree. I'm surprised Gabriel hasn't responded back to your comment. Perhaps he's dumbfounded.
LIVED THERE
Going to Rishikesh in june thanks for info
PRR Patel you might want to check this out th-cam.com/video/HeDh2T_5WDM/w-d-xo.html
Hey i love ur vlogs
Happy Diwali
I think best place in tha world Rishikesh because my memories associated with Rishikesh 😞😌😌😌
Amazing spots gabriel👍.. i've been in india in 2010...you give a lot of informesions to everyone of us...keep on my friend. ♥️from thessaloniki greece.exept amazon from wich page i can buy your books?
Another first for Gabrial The first person in the history of the universe to go camera shopping in Rishikesh ahahahahha
I already started to follow all ur video postings. Hope can meet u one day bro.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
Nice I am also from Rishikesh
You mentioned a better word for slum, "Hand-crafted village" is what popped in my mind.
Our India..lovely rishikesh
You can find free dorm accommodation at Geeta bhavan near Ram Jhula. Meals are as cheap as 30 INR for unlimited food. We learnt about this place while shooting for our musical video near bank of holy Ganga (ganges). That was some Budget trip :)
25:31 do you or anyone know what it is the man is throwing in the river? It looks like it explodes in the water. I love the music playing on the boat.
I like that your shows aren't all sensational and hype and you show kindness and class wherever you go. You're a good role model for me. :)
Initially that white thing that he's throwing is just flowers. Later in the video when u see something exploding in the water, it's actually just a stone which if thrown with a special technique, splashes water in the pattern like it did. But for that to work, the stone has to be sort of flat and light weight.
Btw I love the raw local places. The tourist place are cool but circus like hahaha. If you know what I mean. Awesome as always gabe
Dam use to live there 14 years ago not much has changed in india. Miss so much :c
Thank you
Hey, gab I saved all ur vids for 3 weeks. Doing a gab night now xD
Nice 👍🏽
My favourite place
Nice
I have seen 999 Manali/Spiti/Ladakh travel videos but want to see your version of it too. Next May end or start of June you should be in India for Ladakh/Spiti/Manali trip. You should get a considerable traffic too..
I've actually been to Manali and Ladakh, have you seen this movie yet?
th-cam.com/video/ioV4dbH_b8s/w-d-xo.html
And here are some Manali videos: th-cam.com/users/gabejedmosearch?query=Manali
It would be nice to go back and do them again though and also I really want to see the Spiti valley. Too many places in the world to visit.
gabe your da best
renting scooters a bad idea? I've road them a few places in south east asia same deal?
Awe I never been there
I wish to quarantine in Rishikesh.
Public comments. I am so happy I went to India .rishikesh is beautiful places 😍 and amazing thanks for sharing your wonderful video
Infinity likes to Gabriel traveler by an Indian
see you again
U don't need to mention slum* just enjoyed the vibe of peace here .
its fine bro just dont try to oversell or undersell its is what it is
Hi Gabe! I want to ask a question.
So.. we are implementing swach bharat mission since last 3 years. Do you find any difference?
I personally fell streets are 50% more cleaner. 50% less people litter than before.
Not really sure, I was there the last time ten years ago so I don't remember clearly what it was like then.
Gabriel Traveler I am not asking just Rishikesh asking in general
I noticed you tell them you are from somewhere in California rather than Portland, Oregon. Is this because CA is more recognizable internationally than OR?
I was raised in northern California, and my mom lives there and that's where I've spent more time since 2009, which was the last time I lived in Portland. So my roots are more in California than Oregon. I moved up to Oregon and lived there about seven years but I'm still pretty much a Californian.
its not Trimurti...it is most probably "Dattatreya"
I appreciate your content because it is real and does not romanticize the place by using video tricks.
8:17: Not Jesus, but Valmiki , the great and famous Ramayana's author (it's written on the poster).
Anyway, good video.
hugues grasely for sure it's Balmiki but not the author of Ramayana. it's another Balmiki who was a former robber who later on turns to be a great Saint. Good to see that you can read Hindi.
@@anaghism oh the both were different??
Can u make a video abt the various ashram s at rishikesh and hardwar
I did actually, you can see them here: th-cam.com/users/gabejedmosearch?query=India+ashram
go to Indonesia next, there are a lot of interesting places to visit
I've been there but would love to go back sometime:

India is the only country where if someone asked if I had US dollars, I wouldn't automatically think they were trying to rob me.
Blossom Russo I thought he was fishing to see if he should Rob him.
No the guy was totally harmless and just curious. But even if I did have some US dollars on me I wouldn't have shown him, since it's not a good idea to flash cash, regardless of whether you think they're innocent or not.
Blossom Russo. I too would have asked anyone, if met any person like him. Whenever I meet somebody from abroad, the second thing I do after greeting him / her is that, I would seek his currency in exchange of local one. I had done that in past. I try to give them exact conversion, sometimes more just to collect them.
We don't get chance to travel abroad, so the best thing one can do is to exchange currency to know other country well. It improves your general awareness about that country and it's culture. Sometimes we need to carry enough currency with us when travel abroad. It just improves relation between two countries, and that too with personal touch.
That's how I view currency.
That's cool! I collect foreign currency as well, but my father works at a bank. he brings me all the foreign money that people accidentally deposit.
ravishankar, that's interesting. I like to collect foreign money too. I travelled to India in 2007 but I don't travel now. I don't have the money and I admit that fear has gotten hold of me. Now I just watch other people travel and I stay where I am. hahaha
I want to travel like u.
Vietnam and Jordan next 🙌😆😃😍
Sawan Shrivastava oh wow I had no clue thanks for telling me.
Gabe, this has probably been brought up before but I'd like to suggest a Q&A video. I'm sure viewers, myself included, would love to pick your brain given your extensive travel experiences all over the world.
I actually have it on my list to make another one, will try to do it soon. Also here's one from a year ago:

Why walk when you can get a sunset boat cruise on the Ganges river for 10 rupees? 😄
you should journey to Indonesia. The archipelago with thousand islands & culture.
I visited Indonesia for a month in 2013, would love to go back and see more:

The quality of information in your travel videos is incredible. Are you fascinated by Hinduism?
Thanks. I'm not sure if I'm fascinated by Hinduism exactly. I'm more fascinated by India in general I guess and yes I find Hinduism very interesting, though I can't say I understand it well, just the basics really.
Your knowledge about Indian culture and ways of life is amazing man. Respects!
hey Gabriel , where you stayed in Rishikesh , and how much it cost.
Dev Ganga Guesthouse. I showed it in this video:
