We're back in Laos with our local Lao friend Seng to talk about life in Vientiane, ask him what Laos is like today and how much has changed in just the past few months. Laos has been struggling due to some of the highest inflation rates in its history and across all of Asia, so let's learn the truth about Laos today and what to expect if you're wanting to visit this beautiful country.

Buy the young man some food! He looks hungry. Love your videos and the laos people are the best.
I’m so glad to see you back “home”
Great to see you guys back in Laos again, hope you both have a nice stay wherever you are, there are a lot of places open up better than before and a lot of people are traveling around now. Welcome back to Laos again, have fun and be safe!!
It's nice to be back and travel freely!
Welcome back you guys!
Good to see how excited you are to be back in Laos 🇱🇦 how long are you here for?
Thanks for promoting our country flagging up about the struggle of local people with minimum wages.
Hope more people want to visit Laos and support local businesses
Not sure yet! Thanks so much 🙂
delighted to see you guys back in Laos again :)
cheers
Very glad you came back to Laos
In travel, going back is under-rated. So is Laos. Nice you did. Cheers...Vientiane has changed DRAMATICALLY since I was there last. There were no shopping malls or much street life. About 10 years ago.
I'm happy. You guys have visited Laos again. Be safe and 😉 enjoy!
So happy to see both of you back
This is the best reunion ever 👏👏👏
Good to see you back guys🤗🎉
Nice to see you come to Laos again
Welcome back to Lao again have fun you guys 👋👍👍🥰
Thank you 😊
I'm sad for the common people of Laos. I know that things are difficult for many people here in Thailand as well, but it seems that Laos has been hit even harder. I hope that the price inflation will be reduced in the near future.
Welcome Back to Laos! Nice to see you back there!
Well come to Laos again.
I'm glad to see you guys back to Laos! Your videos in Laos are great than any places!

Hey I remember him. we here in USA we get hit pretty hard too. Gasoline and foods went up double, triple and the pay still the same. the rent is skyrocket here many people can't afford the rent. you guys still lucky the food there still cheaper than here. Enjoy your stay.

Hi there, as the officially coolest and craziest travel couple out there, I have just subscribed to your channel. Will be in town pretty soon myself. keep up the madness. very enjoyable! regards, Honza.
Thanks so much man! Awesome 😎 enjoy your trip
Loved it when Mario jokingly called out to viewers ', hey you mada fakaz', we are back ! hilarious !!
Keep going
PEOPLE are struggling around the world with the same issues. we will survive.
I'm trying to get my butt to Laos. It is my own fault. Getting complacent here in Siem Reap.
Will be here till the end of August and hopefully make it to Laos again.
Yay! Back in Laos. That’s exciting.
I'll be there November. Sucks to know everything went up in prices though... Pre-covid it was cheap.
ສະບາຍດີ😊
I am feeling for my beautiful decent Lao people going through economic hardships. Stay strong and grow more vegetables and raise your own animals

Thank you guys for returning to Laos
BTW, Have you ever been to Houaphan?( North of Laos that surrounded by mountain ) There're some heritage of Nation and apart from this there're interesting Natural, historical and cultural tourism 😄
Welcome to Laos
We would love to see more of north Laos and fingers crossed we will!
ສະບາຍດີ🙏♥️

Great to see you guys back in Laos. I'm planning to go back to Laos in November (last time I was there was early 2020) so I'll see the differences for myself.
th-cam.com/video/hTGqNIpx7HE/w-d-xo.html
Laotian a lot easier to learn. And you will notice a lot of foreigners can speak Lao or Lao Esan better than Thai. Are you guy going to try to ride a fast rail to Boten. I really want to know more about that town. Look modern than all part of Laos.

Good to see you back in Vientianne with the night makets looking so alive. Also nice to catch up with Seng again, 😊😊👍
If you guys are still in Vientiane in September, I'd like to stop by and meet you guys.
We won't be here in september, maybe later in the year!
Visit Cambodia too🇰🇭

What video editing software do you guys use? I'll be traveling to Southeast Asia this September. Maybe we can meet up if that is okay.
Final cut Pro, for sure if we cross paths!
@@TravelsonToast, awesome! I'm a windows user though. How is the drone laws there now?
The Laos sausages look so good, can't wait to try them soon! Safe travels guys 🙌
That's what she said? Lol
Thanks! When are you coming to Laos?
@@TravelsonToast We think in about a month's time from now, after Pai seems to make the most sense - very excited!
Great video and the night market look so alive.

2024 after vietnam laos vientiane is on my big list and i want to stay so 1 year and its near free visa thailand. what do you think ?
Hello
I cant wait to have some Jumping / Dancing shrimp salads and blood clams.
th-cam.com/video/hTGqNIpx7HE/w-d-xo.html
Looks like your friend, Sang, has lost a lot of weight. I hope you share some of your food with him.
They bought food for themselves lol
how long can you stay before you have leave and re-enter?
30 day visa, but you can extend here
Are you guys back to living in Laos for the moment?
Not living, just visiting
hello guys and seng !! we love laos and the people and i hope to be there around november or so from thailand!! much love marc
Awesome! Best of luck on your trip 🙂
Nice video although the inflation is hurting them so bad. Hope you gave food to the poor guy. 😉
Rent appartment n pay them monthly that way is cheaper some appartment is about $200 per month n is very clean n got all furniture plus washing machine too
Howanu bedrooms for that price? I will be moving next yr.
I miss Lao BBQ 😋
Lao BBQ misses you too 🍖😁
Wow gas is $3.50 in Laos? It’s $5 for a gallon around the USA
That's is $3.50 for 1 liter, not a gallon.
No 420 in Laos right?
🤝🤝
Enjoy
thank you!
Do you need to show certificate saying you have no covid when you enter Laos ?
either a negative ATK test from a doctor/hospital or show vaccine card
@@TravelsonToast can I do test in Nong Khai or is it easier/cheaper to do it in Bangkok ?
@@TravelsonToast in Vientiane it costs half a million kip. What is the price in 🇹🇭 ?
@@gibarianonline you can do a test in Nong Khai, just walk into the hospital and ask for an ATK test, cost up to 500 baht and they will do it in 1 hour
Ghost shrimp or the Lao people called it jumping shrimp lol
Can you recommend some must-dos / must-sees when in vientiane? Going in November ☺️
We have many many videos on the city, visit a restaurant by the Mekong for food at sunset, go to the night market, go karting in the forest, nam pien yorla pa is a good day out and many more things! You can find videos on all of these places that we made 😁
Wow, really feeling for all the Lao people who are struggling with their wages counting for less with inflation. It's so hard
Welcome back guys! Are you going to do a video on why you guys came back? I know it's way cheaper to live in Laos than Thailand. But in terms of entertainment/sight-seeing, Thailand is way more interesting. Anyways, sok dee.
Yeah we plan to next week
8 month your guy live laos sim long time for us but we so happy to see your guy come back..nice to see seng too thats guy he nice person too
Thank you!
@@TravelsonToast your welcome
Thai rolls allot of “R’s”
guys I am coming in a couple of days. no cat here. can you recommend a cheap hotel? perhaps share a pizza -my shout??
Our favourite hotel champa boutique is closed for renovation, the other ones we like are Vientiane garden villa hotel or champion hotel. Not sure what the prices are now since many have gone up but these are our go to places in the center. Hope you find something, maybe see you around!
Guys I.much appreciate this reply. I think your channel.is a Riot,always have a good laugh😅👍. Perhaps I'll see.you around. And if I do, it'll be.my treat. Cheers

Damn, gas is just as expensive as California
He's Khon Lao , now. Lol
They asded for it, their govenment replied too much on CCP, Laos is in line to be the next Sri lanka
Have you ever encounter any Thais talk bad things to your country, Lithonia, or other countries while in Thailand?
