The old man (aba) and the old lady (ane) with the big nose plug are my grand parents. Aba used to be priest (a very renowned one during his active days) but had to retire due to old age. Thanks for visiting Ziro 🙏
It’s crazy how as an Indian who’s interested in the life and culture of my own country and the world, I was unaware of this tribe and their unique tradition. Thanks to Drew, great work as always!
Being from Northeast and from the hills, this part of India is being ignore and discriminated for looking different from the rest of India. Thank you for showing a little part of Northeast to the world and also to some Indian who have no knowledge about their own country.
Being an North-East Indian, I always suggests foreigners and tourists to visit this region of India. Most of them stucked in Delhi, Mumbai and Rajastan and some of them travels to South India, but never to NE India. Do visit us, it's really beautiful.
Is it safe for Muslims to travel there? I've always wanted to travel this part of India, but didn't because of some rumors. My father is from Assam, and I've always wanted to visit Nagaland and Arunachal someday. We don't live in Assam anymore though and don't have indian citizenship.
Hello! i am also from Apatani tribe loved your video. The reason apatani women used to wear those nose plugs and tattos was explained to you perfectly although it was usually men from neighbouring tribes, we are very friendly to each other now again thank you for comming to our land i will be translating some parts just for fun here. please ask me anything about us i will be happy to answer anything! 11:20 he has his beared dyed red too? (she thinks his beard and hair is dyed lol) 13:12 and now you hug me too here, husband replies 'NO' 'why would i do that' lol 13:24 should i do like this? 15:25 what is that?, oh thank you!! (she sounds so cute lol) 15:58 hey youre stepping on it! (probably vegetables she planted there) 19:10 whenever u drink that, u lick some of it for taste. (The salt is called Tapyo) 19:48 the background guy is angry hes not getting video taped although jokingly haha
@@TyaGem i actually am a college student and live like 6hrs away from Ziro, but i hardly believe youre going to have a hard time there 😄 everyone knows english to a certain point not fully fluent but enough for u to understand and get something to giggle at haha there are a number of tour guides available to i would have tell u about it if i had info myself sorry, last advice is get a good rated homestay! Its wallet friendly and homestay guys are always friendly. I hope you enjoy the trip!
Unbelievably sad and tragic the lengths women have to go through to try to feel safe. She was just a little girl when that was done to her . Imagine the lifelong migraines and sinus problems
U sure how this would cause migraines or sinus problems because they can still breath through their nostrils, but I agree with the rest of what you said. Women pay the price for mens insecurity and inability to control themselves.
I agree, oxygen is healthier through the nose to your brain it’s probably not even to be stolen but to make you less intelligent than other men sooo I’m glad this is a dying trend.
I am a Filipina (Philippines 🇵🇭 ) but I'm so interested about exploring the life in India and their culture watching like this kind of video made me more curious that I'm sure there is more to discover. 😊😊😊 I read your description
I am a cultural relativist, and knowing the different cultures and their story fascinates me. I knew of them, and Arunachal is really a paradise. Thank You, Drew, for bringing out the rich and diverse culture of India. Love your channel. ❤
I'm American, but my family is from northeast india (Assam), and I literally was thinking "Hey, it would be cool if Drew visited the Northeast" and lo and behold, you upload this! Thank you so much Drew, for visiting Northeast India!
It is so interesting to find out there are people living on this same earth that are living such different lifestyles. I could have never imagined something like this but I am very grateful to learn more about different people's lifestyles, cultures and languages. Please continue making more similar videos in the future Drew!
India is largely undiscovered by Indians themselves.. There is a lot more than what people know.. As he said that these part are untouched by traffic and pollution such parts are in every states and there are busy cities in every state .... - I wish drew covers the Indian snow and beauty of ladhak in nex trip
Because the map of India has been demarcated by the English not by us. The culture, language, religion, beliefs are completely different from the most of the societies that the world believes what India is.
We Love Our Northeast. I have been commenting on your videos for so long to visit Northeast India 🇮🇳 . Every corner of India 🇮🇳 is a gem . There is so more to be explored. Hope you come soon again 💝💌
It’s crazy how many people you meet on your stories Drew, and I also appreciate your motto to go out of your comfort zone. It’s also heartwarming that there’s good left in this world by watching your videos.also wanted to say that your videos are so amazing and spectacular ❤
I dig how you are open minded. You smoked fat bongs of hash in Afghanistan lol! I went to high school in Tempe Az in 90's. Saludos desde San Diego@@drewbinsky

This is one of the most joyful and positive videos I've seen in my suggestions for a while. I smiled all the way through and caught myself wanting to wave back at these beautiful people. Thanks for bringing these stories to the world!
The shaman at 6:43 is from my Village. His name is Mudang Pai (you can see we have the same surname), he is one of the few remaining shamans in our tribe. There are lots of families who don't have a shaman anymore, and while performing any traditional rituals they will play the voice recording of the prayers/chantings. (As they don't have a priest anymore) Fun fact: Mudang Pai has played a role in a Bollywood movie "Bhediya" 1 more fun fact: While Aate(Brother) Pai is a priest for our traditional indigenous trbal religion, his wife is a Christian, but they live peacefully together. Both of them respecting each other's religion.
Great to know something about Arunachal Pradesh.. as an Indian I feel ashamed that we never tried to know more about our people.. Thanks Drew for giving us glimpse of our beautiful country.
@@HA-rn2iu I know my country the most I can. I come from Silchar, Assam and currently studying in Bangalore. I am aware of the fact that NE is always ignored. I don't want to know more about Gujarat or Maharashtra or UP especially when I don't even know about the tribes of NE. I definitely don't care about other states. I only care about India, Assam and NE.

Sangtei Khuptong's song Di Ruk Te is one of the best songs I heard in 2023/ Unfortunately, there is a section of tough backpackers who visit India and they are only interested in staying in hotels costing US$ 5 to US$ 15, eating street food and roaming around in street markets and slums. Then some of them have bad experiences and they say India sucks.
the 7 sister states are something else, the India you don't imagine. Drew you should go to the south too in the hills at Kodaikanal , it's so beautiful.
This was so captivating…and the generosity and beauty of the people are amazing. So beautiful to see the welcoming of these Apatani women and your sweet moments with them. ❤
Amazing. I, being an Indian, had no idea that this tribe existed. It does not mean that I don't care for/about other cultures and traditions... I love learning about other cultures, but this, I had simply never heard of! This just proves the immense cultural diversity in India. Thank you so much, Drew, for introducing us to so many new places and the traditions there! ❤ from West Bengal
I love seeing the ancient traditions that are still part of everyday life in some of the places you travel to. Very sweet people and open people in Arunachal Pradesh!
Thank you Drew for finally visiting the North Eastern part of India🥰. This part is filled with serene landscapes full of greenery and untouched by pollution, & the Best part are the people who are simple, loving and welcoming to everyone. As a fellow North Eastern Indian from Assam, I couldn't be more happy. Thankyou once again, you are always welcome here. I really hope you enjoyed your time here in the North East 😄😄🥰
Thank you for your content it is much needed and shows other cultures in such a respectful way. Thank you for sharing the truth the world needs to see.
Hi Drew 👋 I’m not from India, but thank you for sharing this story because I found it unbelievably interesting, keep on creating really amazing videos!
Hello Drew, it's great to see you in my home state .I have been following your channel for many years but never imagined or thought that you would visit arunachal pradesh someday .it's very overwhelming. God bless you and travel safe.
I loved this. This was priceless. I really appreciate your work because I learned so much. You have a really good presence and you interact so respectfully with everyone. This was my first video and I look forward to checking out your other videos. The filming, the editing, and the storytelling were very good. Bravo to you and your team!
Thank you Drew for making me know more about my country.. The video was so emotional .. The hospitality even in low income group people is just amazing in India... Waiting for your next episode with Jyoti Amge.. From Nagpur.. My home city!😅 I am sure your will like Nagpur too!
Fascinating! We sometimes forget the vast life that lives and breathes outside of our little bubble! There is an entire WORLD, islands, countries, continents!! It’s absolutely amazing! Cheers, Drew and team! Stay safe and adventure on…
Just discovered your channel. Yes I read the complete description and you absolutely need to continue to write these- truly curious people appreciate more than just a video. Thank you for your offerings.
This is honestly so cool to see and never in my life would I have seen this. Thank you for bringing these stories to light and archiving them digitally on TH-cam! Truly amazing and why I subscribe to this channel.
I just found your channel cause TH-cam suggested it to me and I’m enthralled! This area looks so pure and beautiful and the people seem so open and willing to share what they have even if it’s not much. I wish I had the money to travel more!
Really love your content. good work man I know you probably feel like not talking about going to every country anymore but we are curious about your journey and what inspired you and kept you going want to here about this great journey more

I checked your channel from time to time to see if you have released a new video. I was a bit worried that you might have a little trouble. Thanks, at last! you never fail us to satisfy by showcasing incredible stories. KUDOS to Drew and to your team. Still counting for more. Kee it up!
It's the kind of place where you can get lost in the beauty of the mountains and the culture. For sure, the real adventure begins when the GPS says 'No Service'! I visited India before for our TV show and I would never know this place if not for this video. Two thumbs up for doing this!
Every you visit is absolutely amazing, and your involvement in the culture is refreshing and educational . Thank you for allowing us to be part of your travels! 👏👍
Thank you Drew for showing the world the other side of India that exists, the northeastern part which is often neglected and many are not aware about. it is very diverse and rich in it's history! love from Nagaland!
Shame on anyone who neglects Northeastern part of India. See this youtuber, he hates India, yet will come for views that he will get on his videos. Indians need to have this dedication which they only show when to want to flee to Heaven America.
Drew, all of your videos make me smile! These are such warm and unassuming people. You are so lucky to be able to do your work. What an amazing life you are having. I really enjoyed learning about these beautiful ladies. Why did India ban the practice of nose plugging? I thought it was interesting that the one lady didn't want to discuss how the tradition started.
Wow that was fascinating to watch! Thank you! Amazing that they dont know how old they are. And also impressed with the English speakers in such a small town!!!
I was born in INDIA in 1971 my father was in the ARMY over there my parents are white and so am I obviously but I left there when I was 2 ..So I haven't got no memories of that beautiful country and I've always wanted to go and visit and explore all of the Indian continent . But I just haven't had the time but now I'm getting older I can finally go "HOME" so to speak and travel around for a couple of months..🇳🇪
😮👌💖 A totally fascinating adventure to Arunachal Pradesh. I'm from India and I've never heard of these lovely ladies of the Nose Plug tribe or the unique method for fishing. Btw Drew I always read your video footnotes as they are so very informative.
Hey bro thank you so much for being humble. Many people come in the name of exploration, but they end up despising us. I hope many people like you come to Arunachal in the near future and show our rich culture. I am from Tagin Tribe in Arunachal Pradesh. Please do visit again ❤❤. Sending love and prayers for your wellbeing.
Because we are descended of Chinese Tibetan see our borders, it nearly with china and Tibetan and our face don't even look like mainland Indian people🤣
Hey Drew! It's has been a wonder rollercoaster of fun and wonderlost with your Travel stories ❤ Please keep us going around with your keen travelogues 💞🥰🤗 From North-East India😊
Fantastic video! It was so interesting to see a little bit of how these lovely people live. :) It does make me sad thiugh that the origin of the nose plugs for the women was to make themselves "ugly" to avoid kidnapping... it's very sad that the women were desperate enough to mutilate themselves so they could try to be safe. At least now it's something the ladies seem to be proud of.
Hello Drew, thank you for visiting and exploring the remotest part of India, everytime I watch your videos I learnt something new and yes I always read your description as it helps me to understand your content better❤❤❤
@@drewbinsky start the video by first playing vehicle honking compilations from many different Indian cities, and then show Aizawl as the silent city of India.
What a refreshing culture and such a warm welcome. The nose piercings are almost irrelevant to the story! Having just recently returned from Bhutan, this video reminded us a bit of that trip. Continue with the great work drew!🙌
I appreciate drew for your work but the thing that irked me is the music playing in the bg very typical indian classical music but as this video is about Arunachal pradesh you should have choose music related to the tribe something representing the tribe as you are in a big platform, you have viewers worldwide and people barely know about our place, culture and TH-camrs like you is really a big deal for us so we do expect for better insight, coverage or more efforts from your side, although thank you for your visit hope you will come again soon!!
The old man (aba) and the old lady (ane) with the big nose plug are my grand parents. Aba used to be priest (a very renowned one during his active days) but had to retire due to old age. Thanks for visiting Ziro 🙏
That’s so cool!!!! I love your grandparents ! Tell them hi!

They are so cute together especially when she tried to grab his arm and wrap around her shoulder.

India is a CONTINENT!

Yes, they look like Tibetian ancestry. They are not East Indian in race just nationality.
@@stephaniewade3593 right we are indians in the eye of the law.

May b they are before another country

These ppl do t luk like Indians. May b before this was another country like Sikkim.

I am from india and I haven't even explored everything or anything yet but I love the north eastern India . It has so much Greenery and serenity
Unfortunate that you haven't explored your own country. Maybe you were waiting for white boy validation on India's beauty.
So is punjab most fertile land in the whole of India and Pakistan
@@toocharged but mainland India is too chaotic, not everyone likes living in the chaos. It's just messed up, especially the big cities
India is an enormous country and it would take a lifetime to completely discover it.
This is one of the kind story from India.. and these are your 3 emojis🫡🤗🥰 Proud Filipina but leaving in Switzerland🥰
What a stunning episode Drew!
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing!!❤
Thank you Drew for making me know more about my country..

Thanks for the itinerary
So many beautiful places yet they want to settle in uae uk usaa
The UK, France, Spain, and other European countries were incredibly wealthy and beautiful in the 16th, 15th, and 14th centuries, yet they engaged in looting India and migrated to America, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa@@kiteknight23
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty non-Indian citizens can’t visit Gurudongmar Lake and Kavaratti.
Where is Assam?
One of your best episodes!!
by far you have the best travel videos!! Thank you & keep it up
I checked your channel from time to time to see if you have released a new video. I was a bit worried that you might have a little trouble. Thanks, at last! you never fail us to satisfy by showcasing incredible stories. KUDOS to Drew and to your team. Still counting for more. Kee it up!
Thanks!!
It's the kind of place where you can get lost in the beauty of the mountains and the culture. For sure, the real adventure begins when the GPS says 'No Service'! I visited India before for our TV show and I would never know this place if not for this video. Two thumbs up for doing this!
Thank you!!!
This was a great clip. Thanks for going and sharing it.
Drew thanks for showing us the other part of the world, your humbleness will take you far. Stay blessed.
Every you visit is absolutely amazing, and your involvement in the culture is refreshing and educational . Thank you for allowing us to be part of your travels! 👏👍
Thanks!
Thank you Drew for showing the world the other side of India that exists, the northeastern part which is often neglected and many are not aware about. it is very diverse and rich in it's history! love from Nagaland!
My pleasure!
Shame on anyone who neglects Northeastern part of India. See this youtuber, he hates India, yet will come for views that he will get on his videos. Indians need to have this dedication which they only show when to want to flee to Heaven America.
Wow, this was educational. Thank you for that.
Drew, all of your videos make me smile! These are such warm and unassuming people. You are so lucky to be able to do your work. What an amazing life you are having. I really enjoyed learning about these beautiful ladies. Why did India ban the practice of nose plugging? I thought it was interesting that the one lady didn't want to discuss how the tradition started.
I never seen someone discovering the world as drew do just unique and special thnx drew
Thanks!
I want to be a tourist one day and travel across the world like you, you’re an inspiration thank you ❤
Thanks for letting us know about this part of the world, at least we can see it as it is. Enjoyed watching it😊
Wow that was fascinating to watch! Thank you! Amazing that they dont know how old they are. And also impressed with the English speakers in such a small town!!!
I was born in INDIA in 1971 my father was in the ARMY over there my parents are white and so am I obviously but I left there when I was 2 ..So I haven't got no memories of that beautiful country and I've always wanted to go and visit and explore all of the Indian continent . But I just haven't had the time but now I'm getting older I can finally go "HOME" so to speak and travel around for a couple of months..🇳🇪
Happy for you to finally go home!
@@drewbinskythat is not the flag of India 🇮🇳. It is Niger’s.
😮👌💖 A totally fascinating adventure to Arunachal Pradesh. I'm from India and I've never heard of these lovely ladies of the Nose Plug tribe or the unique method for fishing. Btw Drew I always read your video footnotes as they are so very informative.
They are so friendly!
Enjoyed learning about the people and culture of this area of India. Thank you.
Hey bro thank you so much for being humble. Many people come in the name of exploration, but they end up despising us. I hope many people like you come to Arunachal in the near future and show our rich culture. I am from Tagin Tribe in Arunachal Pradesh. Please do visit again ❤❤. Sending love and prayers for your wellbeing.
They look like Filipinos ❤❤❤
yeah true po ❤!
Because we are descended of Chinese Tibetan see our borders, it nearly with china and Tibetan and our face don't even look like mainland Indian people🤣
Haplogroup O-M175
North-East India has Mongoloid populations related to Indo-Chinese and other East Asians.
@@twitteringothers5059 well isn't that M - word rasict?
I love the cultural experience you give us. I would love to travel like this
thats a beautiful shot with you smiling and the old ladys in the background. really impressive stroy
Amazing video! Can't wait to travel like this!
Brilliant video.
get this channel 10 million subs right now!!!
Your comments help!
Love how you interacted with everyone.❤
Thank you for sharing! I love learning about other cultures
Hey Drew! It's has been a wonder rollercoaster of fun and wonderlost with your Travel stories ❤ Please keep us going around with your keen travelogues 💞🥰🤗 From North-East India😊
Fantastic video! It was so interesting to see a little bit of how these lovely people live. :)
It does make me sad thiugh that the origin of the nose plugs for the women was to make themselves "ugly" to avoid kidnapping... it's very sad that the women were desperate enough to mutilate themselves so they could try to be safe.
At least now it's something the ladies seem to be proud of.
Hello Drew, thank you for visiting and exploring the remotest part of India, everytime I watch your videos I learnt something new and yes I always read your description as it helps me to understand your content better❤❤❤
Thank you for this vlog, felt like u also brought us there. Its very informative.
While you’re in Northeast India, you should visit Aizawl Mizoram, the silent city of India.
Next on the list!
@@drewbinsky start the video by first playing vehicle honking compilations from many different Indian cities, and then show Aizawl as the silent city of India.
@@smartindian8500heihah
But mizo's are nob 🤭
What a refreshing culture and such a warm welcome. The nose piercings are almost irrelevant to the story! Having just recently returned from Bhutan, this video reminded us a bit of that trip. Continue with the great work drew!🙌
Yes it’s similar to Bhutan!
New subscriber. You adventurous side gives us all a sense of belonging to the unknown. It’s so wonderful. Thank you.
Very educational story! Thanks for sharing! These people were so nice and the place is beautiful.
Thank you for visiting
I’m form Ziro as well
And I would really appreciate if you would visit again
Thank you again for showing our culture 🥹
I appreciate drew for your work but the thing that irked me is the music playing in the bg very typical indian classical music but as this video is about Arunachal pradesh you should have choose music related to the tribe something representing the tribe as you are in a big platform, you have viewers worldwide and people barely know about our place, culture and TH-camrs like you is really a big deal for us so we do expect for better insight, coverage or more efforts from your side, although thank you for your visit hope you will come again soon!!
Fascinating, informative and awesome. Thanks for posting this and sharing your travels and experiences.
I absolutely read the descriptions. Thank you!
