    Hey Ben! Just wanted to say, you absolutely killed the video, even the shots you thought were poor. Although I'm an engineer, not a film maker, I thought it was a great way to give the viewer a perspective of your journey and things we would've otherwise not seen; it was also a good way to transition between clips. It was definitely nice to see a new video from my favorite travel vlogger; even though you're more inconsistent than my father, I can't wait to see what you have in store for us during March & the rest of your travels! Keep up the great work!

    4:23 the reason you see so many elephant trousers is because before you enter the temple (I think it applies only to women) there's a sign that says you need to wear long trousers as a form of respect so vendors sell these elephant trousers outside.
