Very informative... all of which are relevant for safer and more enjoyable travel. Great tips and advice! Thank you 😊
The DOORSTOP! What a great idea for safety when you're on your own. I'm preparing myself to go to India and that is probably the best advice I've seen so far. Thanks for the video :) it was super helpful
This was SUPER helpful! Thank you so much. I love your channel!!!
I am going to India & Southeast Asia for three months as well! Loving your videos. Thanks for the door stop trick
Excellent video - great idea about only bringing selected chapters of the guidebook and the door stop trick is good to share too.
Thank you so much! So many great packing tips that I haven't thought of.
Awesome tip...I hope to travel with ya one day.Keep up the good work and god bless you,Peace out.
TRAVEL UPDATE:
The 30 day India eVisa is now 60 day (UPDATED HERE: th-cam.com/video/uJcn8dQKZMA/w-d-xo.html).
Check my blog for an intensive post on applying for an Indian Tourist Visa for U.S. citizens wp.me/p9430J-egN
And traveler's cheques are no longer as widely accepted in India or Southeast Asia.
thank you very much. this is very helpful for me coz next month i'm gonna backpack to India. wish me luck and i hope i will survive.
Great tips. Thanks for the entertaining & informative day. Good night!
xoxo,
Love 💕
+Fit2LuvME with Love Fuller thanks for watching and all your comments!❤️😃
This was great !
+Mika Myrie Thanks Mika!
I'm travelling to India in less than 30 days. Such a helpful video, thanks so much!
You're welcome! I'm so excited for you. Enjoy!
I would recommend keeping tissue or wet wipes in your bag once there, toilet paper isn’t always available depending on location. Great videos, keep up the great work! I’ll be off to Thailand in a few weeks:)
Condensing the guide book to the relevant chapters is such a good idea. The India guide is huge!!! But can I bring myself to destroy the book lol!!?
Thank you for coming india👍💖😍💯
Hello. I am glad I came across your channel while researching the cave hotel in Turkey. I enjoy traveling and waiting for someone to travel with me I miss out on going to a lot of places. I am fearful of traveling alone. I hopefully can get over this fear and strike out on an international trip alone. Baby steps. I will not leave my state without a travel buddy. You got a new subbie and I have enjoyed watching a couple of videos already. Take care and continued safe travels.
+Simply Karmin Glad you enjoy my videos! Understandable, traveling alone can be a mental obstacle for many. ;)
Hi Christine. Do you use travel cubes to organize your clothes? if so, what brand do you have?
did you use your Steripen much???
Hello hope your taking care of yourself. A question, I traveled to India in 2017 and my Visa as a tourist is for 10 years, I know it's not to stay straight 10 years there that I can go in and out of the country ,but I got confused when you talked about a 30 day Visa to go there, it means that everytime I want to go to India I need to inform it so they send me another special visa for specifically the days I'll be staying there?🙄 Be safe 🙏
love a binder clip. good idea, just the chapters you need.
+Sarah Wheelee if there's one take-away travel tip, this is a good one. I can't stand ebooks and always need to have something tangible.
yes ebooks require batteries of which i'm always running out of or forgetting at home. and you can leave the other papers at the hotel. so its way lighter than the ebook.
Where do you buy the Maleleuca Spray? or do you do it yourself?
That door stopper!
Why do you need a door stop. There are locks on the door
Im headed to India for my first solo trip soon. Im staying 1 night in Delhi but ws wondering if I should buy a door stopper for my hotel. Now I definitely plan to buy one.
+Steph Gone Global Gives me peace of mind at night. Male traveler messaged me that he remembered this vid (didn't get a doorstop) so used a chair to block the door; awoke to a man breaking into his room. Rare but apparently it can happen even to men. 😲
Hi, in India when you booked a hotel/hostel with a credit card, do they only use it to book a room and you can pay it by cash as you check in or do you have to pay it also with the credit card? Thank you
Hoi Bintang if you have paid using credit card while booking then no need to pay again.
Can you put some affiliated links for some of the items like the melaleuca spray? I can't find the one you have.
Hi Dewan! My blog post with linked items is linked in the description box 😃👌👌
whats the background music?
How do you make money while traveling?
Thank you for sharing! Is a door stopper necessary? Do you have another purpose to a door stopper other than keep doors open??
+Cino Nim I use it to keep the door closed from the inside, especially when I sleep...not to keep the door open.
haha you're the best - what do you use for video editing?
+Joel Graham Premiere Pro. The hacked version.
I don't know if I should be saying that.
A friend will be married in India what do you suggest a 👰 bride will need?
What size backpack? Did you carry on or check bags? I bought a 70 liter but now wondering if it's too big..
See my video on my Eagle creek convertible carry on. 😁 70 l sounds massive.
Public comments.standard size for each tour site . Have a big one for all the dirty clothes from each trip unless you want to get it wash .but might be expensive .
Can I ask what is the brand of your voltage converter? I am trying to find a voltage converter to use US products in India but I am getting confused on what to buy. thank you!
I have a Universal adapter. No voltage converter. India is 220v but many tech devices (aside from sensitive power hungry electronics (i.e. hairdryers, curling irons, irons, etc..) can take up to 220v. You have to read the voltage label.
You can buy a voltage converter but it weighs like a brick. I've only bought one once and I blew it out on a blow dryer.
Sorry, many U.S. tech devices take a standard of 110v but might go up to 220v if you check the label.
Do you use the door stop to keep people from opening your door?
+Eliza the Cat Yes. India has very old lock systems and doors. They're probably more safe than hotel card keys, but I didn't know how cheap I'd go to stretch my budget on accommodations.
+GRRRLTRAVELER | Christine Kaaloa That's a really good idea!
I like that you're traveling to Asia but why not Mexico :(. Eres bienvenida a este maravilloso país!
Public comments. Walk with tissue and protein shake and snacks and a few bottles small water to start your trip plus a shoulder bag .plus a few zip lock bags .on every trip make sure you pack the night before . always take a picture of the card of the hotel you staying. Always be on time for train trip .
I know that you have traveled to places like Thailand, India, and Korea. I haven't seen you been to Hong Kong or Taiwan. I think it would be nice to see you go there.
+Sunny Quac Wasn't Youtubing at the time but I blogged Hong Kong. Also if you follow me on FB, you'll know Taiwan was one the countries on this recent trip. =D
Thanks gal for helpful tips
Hi i like your video but i don´t understand something...Why do you need a door stopper?
I guess for safety..
Often times, hostel doors don't have locks. Putting a doorstopper on the inside of a closed door will help against intruders coming in the room whilst sleeping.
where did you buy your unlocked phone with hotspot?
+Vy Chi I upgraded my iPodTouch 4 of years to an iPhone5c for what it could do. I went directly thru the Apple store, although I researched cheaper alternate options and 3rd parties. The way I'll use my iPhone and the fact I travel a lot, I figure it will pay for itself, especially as I didn't want to be tethered to a mobile service provider in the U.S. (which in actuality costs more than buying a factory direct phone unlocked. So I considered this a long-term investment; I won't upgrade my phone anytime soon.
You can get a cheaper "unlocked" iPhone/used on ebay, etc from a 3rd party dealer.. if you're willing to risk the confusion of folks claiming "unlocked" (but in reality, tethered T-mobile, Sprint,etc... phones) and issues of trust.
There are cheap, no brand unlocked phones out there if you just want the ability to do SIM swapping when you visit different countries. More current mobiles do hotspots .. I know Apple does for certain. I would think Samsung and Android have marched up to that plate too.
Public comments.yes unlock phone is good to have.
Always been reluctant about India. Hear it's hard to travel alone. What do you think?
+Miss Takes It certainly can feel hard at times. Due to the lack of hostels, meeting other travelers can be hard and India is so big, the tourist routes aren't nearly as trodden as SEAsia. This trip I traveled mostly alone and realized the key is -- befriend the good locals. Aside from shopowners, taxis, tour agencies, etc... many normal locals are wonderful about helping you gather your bearings and find your way around! I didn't feel lonely one bit.

Do you want visit morocco ?
Morocco is an amazing country!
Hey grrl traveler😊
I'm planning go to India on one of my trips. I'll be going solo, but everyone (including Indian females) tell me it's not safe for women to travel there alone. I'm still definitly going, but what are your thoughts on traveling to India as a young solo female traveler.
Love your videos keep up the great work XX
Red Liberty don't go I went there it's very unsafe for women. The men there touch u from every angle every chance they get and pick pocket everyday
Public comments.good tips great job .
Earplugs and a eye mask, FUD, travel sink plug and possibly a miniature rape alarm which can double up as a distress alarm. My Grannie swore by hatpins when she was a young woman, a good poke with one of those deterred male nonsense she said.
why should a woman in India travel alone with a doorstop?
for safety..
Often times, hostel doors don't have locks. Putting a doorstopper on the inside of a closed door will help against intruders coming in the room whilst sleeping.
Omg google women safety in India . It's dangerous
I saw a TH-cam video where 2 foreign men were in their hotel room doing some TH-cam prep at night when a hotel clerk just walked into their room WITHOUT knocking. They had been filming and talking about their day for their channel so they got The Whole thing on tape. The guy looked really surprised to realize someone was in the room. I guess he thought no one was there or something.
Please, pay attention to the time text is displayed. Sometimes it goes away so fast that and cannot be read. That actually becomes so annoying!! 😊
IF you like reading, there's a written guide to my videos (link in description box) . You can take as long as you want reading there and there's even more travel details that I don't cover in my videos!
