🇲🇲 The Road To Mandalay | Burma Travels
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- 🇲🇲 My journey across Burma continued with a road trip to the mystical Asian city of Mandalay. A city whose name conjures up images of the Orient. But first I had to buy a bus ticket...
The monk was very friendly with you because he was also " Bald & Bankrupt". 😁 😁 😁
he had an Ipad, so I think not
I hope u can visit in the Philippines.
@@alainfelger93 that doesnt mean anything bald has ray bands
HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH THE BEST ONE
He saw bald had no hair and a beard and thought "Ah! English monk-exchange-student!"
I started watching your Chernobyl vids and suddenly ended up watching India videos. Bald your channel is addictive...
So true..... I have been watching for hours...... Mr. Bald i need to do some work
Yes same here
Me too I've been watching your vlog nonstop yesterday😊
I've been on a 2 day binge watch, I've watched Bolivia, Chernobyl, Chechnya, Russia, Africa, India...I must have watched at least 50 vids or more.
Definently yes
Says he has a bad stomach.
*eats spicy chicken before getting on a bus*
Hes got a one ticket to shitsville 🤮
Kill or cure!
absolute madman
IN India too
And then a bumpy motorbike ride afterward ... yeesh!
B&B, you are the greatest. No question about it. Who could have predicted? The most interesting thing in the world is... the world, itself. The REAL world, which you show us time after time, with so much bravery, style, and good humor.
-"What time is the bus leaving?"
-"Once."
Well, that's useful information haha :)
The bus will leave....just this once
How long will it be? Oh about 15 feet.
She literally says 10 o clock! Lol
@@Vannzzy Yes I heard that too on listening carefully a second time.
😂👍🏼
seems everything costs 2 thousand in myanmar.
And wow the busses were nice looking... new cars around and nice scooters.... much more money then india!
He's still paying the white tax too!
"How much would female company cost there?"
"2000"
For real the rickshaw for 20 mins and the bus ride for 4 hours. Both 2 thousand squiggles.
Haha nope
Made me laugh so much when you called him a greedy little monk 😂
hes a d head.
😂 same
But they didn't ripoff him tho he only paid 1000+500+500=2000(1.2$) and it's the normal price
night Candle shut up dumbass..that’s a normal price..bald is just an asshole
@@kyawthet2135 Yeah, exactly. I thought Bald was being rude there, the monk was trying to help him find the right money and Bald called him a greedy little bugger. Just a friendly banter, but the monk knew some English but not enough to understand British sense of humour, so I think perhaps not the best call.
I can still understand Bald though, when you're abroad and you're dealing with a foreign currency then you always have to be alert. Better to be suspiscious of others one time too many than to be ripped off one time too many.
But the truth is the taxi driver probably gave a normal price because he didn't want to look bad in front of a monk. I know this from traveling in Thailand, they have some serious respect for the monks.
I started in The Drunk man in Russia now im here watching all your videos.
that was me 3 weeks ago and im almost out of videos D: great channel
I would do absolutely anything for the amount of confidence you have. Total respect dude. These videos are amazing. Keep it up!!!
Its easy-just be a caucasian and everyone will run up to you with artificial friendliness and smiles.Try that when you are dark and see what happens
@@goldenboyi1989 yes you'll get shanked by the dark skins if you're dark skin.
Act like you belong there and people will treat you as such
A combination of diarrhea and the flu isn't nice. But of course expected when you're in that region with the food and hygiene etc. Doesn't mean you get it, but of course increases the chance.
If you're 6'3 or w/e like Baldie just carry yourself like you're confident no one can beat your ass and you'll meet a lot of friendly people.
5:29 "i've got diarrhea"
9:23 eats massive epic spicy Burmese feast
11:30 start of long bus ride
:-)
Yolo boi
Hahahaha..i was thinking the same thing.Mr bald got a strong stomach.
Brave man.
He is messing with us
are you from Myanmar?
Well done for keeping up the enthusiasm while feeling awful.
It's so weird how the World opens up around you at times. It must have been months ago when I first watched a video of yours reviewing "The cheapest hotel" somewhere or another.....and I switched off after a couple of minutes wondering what on Earth I was watching...(some random vlogger!) Now here I am, months later binge watching your videos, just now realising that you're that same guy I bailed on so quickly! Now I feel like I know you! You really are fantastic to watch! Thank you.
@megan olivia It's crazy isn't it. You never know where life will take you. Often back to where you were before.
Diarrhea and the flu and a positive attitude plus you still smiling n chatting with the locals - you're amazing👏👏👏
Plot twist: He had corona
@@Kingmakerrr1337 yea now we know lol
I have always thought that Mandalay was the most beautiful name ever given to a city. It just flows and conjures up images of the exotic and mysterious.
Yes, years ago that was where the Mandalorians learned to ride the Mythosaurs.
@@nidpaul underrated comment lol
Myanmar is such a beautiful country... shame what is happening there now!
Myanmar was under military and covid helppp!
Beer 2000,-
Bus ride 2000.-
Taxi ride 2000,-
Rice table 2000.-
now an egg for $1 after military coup and covid
Your “See you later” to the non existent possibility to meet that monk again lol
😆
That kind of means bye in English.
It actually is more common in Australia, but Australian soap operas in the 1980s introduced it into modern British.
@ I mean American English. It's a "bye" here.
Might see him in the next life
It was the cold noodles 😂
they have to be hot...
Yes, cold food upset stomach.
...and the hot stares 😂
@N K If he had norovirus he would not have been able to leave the hotel room! This would have been a case for the hospital.
@N K Actually yes, cold rice is one of the most high risk foods for food poisoning. Cooking obviously kills bacteria present in food.
"Mandaly..where the sun comes up with thunder, crost the bay"! Can't get that Kipling line out of my head.
I started watching your Russian videos then Bolivian and now ended up in Myanmar. Getting addicted already.
Mr Bald, I must say, you are a mean guy: Shaking these people's hands while suffering from a diarrhea is probably the worst thing you can do 😅
Damn didn't think! Poor monk (( Maybe that's why he kept phoning me!
bald and bankrupt haha
@@baldandbankrupt He was a nice guy! Seemed concerned about you, maybe that's why he called!
@@KenWiggerAnotherAncientGamer Monks dont believe in God.....but give them money and they will pray for you
@@baldandbankrupt 😁😁👍👍
Burma, land of many Buddhists🤗....So cute...The people seem really simple and jolly there...Must visit Burma 😍

Eating spicy food while traveling and having diarrhea... you have indeed balls of steel!
His balls have got nothing to do with it! He has a steel-lined stomach and bowels!
Haha! Balls of steel and a ringpiece like lava.🌋
hi you made nice video I also like to go Burma one day I must go 😀😀😀
Or rather.. An asshole of steel!
So you basically visited Poundland lol. Taxi 2,000, bus 2,000, food 2,000 all around £1 lol
And people complain about living of government funding for I think is like 70£?😂
OVERLAND GLOBAL they don’t live in Burma though genius
Haha i was thinking the same its like the 1dollar shop the whole country
Andre Coleman no shit Sherlock, how'd you figure that out?
OVERLAND GLOBAL 🤷🏽♂️
Bald 'bout to leave some major squiggles in the toilet bowl.
Mr Bald goes to Super Bowl.....Malay style
R M Davis the diarrhea won by 10 points
turtlepowersf hahahahah best commenti almost shit myself
@@cassiepitchford5488 almost sqiggled yourself 😁
I think it should be watery only.
The Burma series is addictive..I hope you get back again in Burma and serve the rest of the ride
I was always wonderd how Burmese life's look like from inside Burma.
Thank you for the journey 👍
Like in some areas of Indonesia, they serve a whole bunch of small dishes so you can choose what you want to eat. It's important to not touch the dishes you are not going to eat. At the end you just pay what you ate. That's specially common in Padang, Sumatra island.
Great info. Thanks
@@kathleeny7077 oh wow, I thought it was just to choose. Super cheap then.
@@baldandbankrupt great content man. I love the fact that your videos doesn't have many editing and are not specially cinematic but they portray the reality of the places you visit. It's kind of street journalism because you ask, you talk and you let us discover stuff from those countries you travel to. I must say it wouldn't be interesting without your comments🤗🤗🤗 greetings from Barcelona
I prefer to keep my videos full of content with lots of people interactions rather than lots of cliche cinematic shots of markets and stuff. Some viewers prefer it and some don't. Glad you are one of the ones who does ) @@clarabenavente6694
I want to join you mister bald!
Congrats on 250K Mr. Bald. You're 1/4th way to 1M
. Do a Live Q/A if possible.
Now almost 2 million
almost 4 by now
"Your a monk with an iPad??" LOL.
Yep, like in one of the comments i started watching your videos with Belarus and ended up all over the eastern block and India / Burma. Very interesting and superb footage. Excellent knowledge about the locations, culture etc. Being a Brit yes you have to know about the colonial era. Great job Bald, keep it up. Cheers TC 👍
Mr Bald! Your the only person i know who can peel a tangerine with one hand!
Haha first time I did it. Must be an innate skill I have inherited
bald and bankrupt Look who changed their profile picture :) Nice!
Mr. Bald is quite expert with all actions which use one hand............
True story but only use the skill on sundays
@@baldandbankrupt Ha ha ha....u have sense of humor......tee hee
You are visiting most amazing places. Thank you for sharing
I love Myanmar. I means they're really friendly and also trying to escape from restrict military government. Keep moving forward Myanmar.
I remember when you where at 30k subs. Now you made it to 250k so fast wow, im so happy for you, nobody on youtube deserves it more. I wish I didn't get so easily manipulated by the media, and had the balls to go to these places, they seem very cool and beautiful.
Squiggle squiggle squiggle from Italy!!
Ciao squiggle!
Hey luigi stick to your pasta and mario kart.
Burma seems to be cleaner and people seem to be very friendly and outward too. Even roads seem better.
tats wat m thinking.....haha
It's because, they have very less Indians.
@@simpleguy38 "Indians" aren't the issue it's successive governments who would rather continue to re-distribute India's wealth to the very richest rather than distrubute the wealth to radically modernize and develop India's entire infrastructure, culture and economy. India was arguably better off economically than Japan, China, South Korea in the year 1700. But subsequent wars left them depleted and all the great minds killed. India drastically needs a post-second world war Japanese style national awakening to drastically change the entire nation. Indians are still too concerned with themselves rather than their community as a whole. And until that changes, India will continue to lag behind.
your channel is by far the most captivating one that i encountered in many years. not only you give us a wonderful journey but also the tiny bits that you give like the history of the places you visit made these videos absolutely gold.
Big fan of your videos! Been watching your videos for a while now, and enjoy everything about them! I await a new video from you and can’t wait to watch! Good luck on your travels! Stay safe and blessed! From Luton, UK

Man, you're a legend!!
Big love from BOYACÁ (Colombia), South-America.
Gracias amigo! Creo que Colombia es muy hermosa país!
@@baldandbankrupt Welcome anytime to Boyacá. We'll be pleased to see you here!!
Bienvenido amigo!! Sur-América te espera.
Thank you for sharing your journey to Mandalay. Watching this brings back memories of a time when Myanmar was more open and peaceful. It’s heartwarming to see the friendliness and hospitality of our people. Unfortunately, with the current situation, things have changed drastically. We long for the days when travelers could freely explore and enjoy the beauty of our country without worry. Hopefully, one day, Myanmar will be able to welcome visitors with the same warmth and charm once again.
Great journey sir with new experience of non-English speaking peoples. Still following you vlog. Adios amigo.
I think Burma is looking to be one of the best countries to travel too. Cheap, Clean hotels. friendly people. probably worth learning the language Bald :P lots of fun to be had there
Yeah I will go back for sure
what about the ethnic cleansing they were doing against muslims?
Thats what made it a nice place @@asadb1990
Swiggles
Wrong about that clean part.
Your blogs have become my solace and therapy...its really amazing and lovely the way you mingle with the locals...great work!!
Me too!! Pure happiness whilst watching bald&bankrupt!!
Found this channel today, and I'm already binge watching. On the 4th or 5th video so far. This is just so good content!
Doesn't get more real than ur videos mate. Great work.
Congratulations for 250k subs my Bald Brother!!!!😋😋😋
Thanks mate
It's Mr. Bald, remember! 😉😂

@@jitjit7363 Look at the photo on his channel...well, isn't it "Jai Bhole ki"
I’m always so sad when your videos are over. They are so entertaining and interesting that 13 minutes feels more like 3! Time flies when you’re having fun I guess.

Love this video bcos i dont know much abt Myanmar, except for the movie Beyond Rangoon which i watched back in my college days wc this movie bought me bucket of tears and makes me think i may have grow up poor but still lucky wasnt born in Burma on those days....so good job with this video and will watch for more videos of your journey in Burma..take care! oh and with your diarrhea? maybe they have Loperamide in the pharmacy that will help with your tummy probs everytime..xoxo from Philippines!
I like his videos but cringe when he calls your language “squiggly”

I cried when i saw the monks contact name on your phone 😂😂
I have a facebook monk friend, they are lovely.
Well.. I guess I’m the only one from Myanmar watching this Video.
Your narration brings alive the things. I am returning to your clips a second or a third time often.
Was in Myanmar in 2004 good to see people still super friendly and country still really cheap!
Yeah felt like Thailand probably was 30 years back
Jai Bhole Ki! congrats on 250k! Hope you get some kingfeemer to fix up that diarrhea
@@sunnygupta6083 nope, that's not dirty scammer India.

@@sunnygupta6083 no . poor country India

@@powerhousecentralbne kingfisher beer,,,, dude m from India
If you order main dish and rice in Myanmar, all side dishes are free.
It's not free, that Money is included
@@svs4305 nothing is free in this country. as I found out back in 2015!
Well...Born and raised in Myanmar. It is common that side dishes are free, you must buy main dish ofcourse and can ask for more if side dishes run out. I guess it becomes more pricey in big cities and can't say if that practice is still common.
@@JigglyPuff787 I honestly like your country for some reason I am getting a weird good feeling
That's great
This is one of the only ones ive seen that makes me happy to be at home in my warm bed

I had to have a boil lanced on my "upper" thigh, near my sack, today. I tried to pop it myself, but no go. I thought the doctor was going to get sick. What came out looked like green mayo and smelled like cat food../
@@jojo-fu4xh it seems to be folliculitis
Consult a physician
They seem like honest people, has anyone tried to scam you? Much love
No nobody did there.
@@thegreatgatsby8180 well he didnt mention historically, he was asking about the last 2 or 3 days. If people attempt to scam him multiple times within a few days of arrival, then you can pass whatever judgement you'd like on the country as a whole, especially if you plan to visit. It's more true in smaller, more homogeneous countries like this. Last time i was in thailand, i felt very safe and none of the LOCALS tried scamming, the only scammers there were Indians and other foreigners. It seems to me that scamming and dishonesty CAN be a product of a country's culture, seeing as it's clearly more prevalent in some cultures than others.

looks like a beautiful country with soulful people- thank you for bringing your experiences to us
Burma for me, and an Adult Diaper for you Mr. Bald...
Hello,Bald diarrhea is common in Burma for outsider be careful.Why people don't speak English because since 1962 till 1982 foreign languages banned to teach in school under military government.After when General Ne Win daughter had to go for high study to America then he allowed to teach again. Now in big cities young generation can speak English city like Mandalay & Yangon.Visit to Pyin oo lwin this is a hill station Mandalay is too hot but Pyin oo lwin is cool.Pyin oo lwin is not far from Mandalay.Pyin oo lwin old name is May myo.It became a hill station and summer capitol of British Burma.The British named the location May myo literally May town in Burmese,after Colonel May a verteran of the Indian rebelion of 1857 and commander of Bengal Regiment temporarily stationed at the town in 1887.After Military Government renamed Pyin oo lwin.
Love the videos, you’re definitely my favorite travel TH-camr, keep up the good work.
Yes yes.
Actually it's crazy. In the media all we can see is that such countries are extremely dangerous, never go there, you get killed in seconds, everyone is bad etc... After having watched numerous videos of B&B I have to say that my perspective totally changed. I wanna travel to these countries ones.
The kindness and curiousity they have is so lovely really.
What kind of media do you consume lol? I've never heard somebody say that you get killed instantly in India or Myanmar or that everyone is bad there.
Your video clips are amazing, just can't get my eyes off the screen. Big applause to you for showing the world to the world.
Great Video Mr. Bald! I hope you are feeling much better at home in the United Kingdom. I look forward to more of your adventures in Squiggle Land.
I am from Burma. Monk was being nice and was trying to help you. no greedy. stop saying cack
haha no problem. i think he was just making a joke :)
Hello brother! Thanks for clearing that out. But can you tell me is he getting ripped off? Is food and travelling prices that he paid a fair price?
British sense of humour. Insulting one another is usually a harmless joke.

2020 and still watching I'm so addicted to your videos. I'm from Philippines. Take care as always. God bless to your every trip.
Another place with amazing prices and kind, hospitable people. I'd want to go back as well. Shame you caught the squiggles. I'd have tried to eat all that food! Thanks, Bald. Have a safe trip back to India, bhaisaab. Sat Sri Akaal!

The world is beautiful with good people.Even i am living near Moreh,Manipur... going to Mandalay is a dream. 😂😂
Best love and care to all dear people from india🙏
Hey, I've been binging on your videos for a few months now. Unlike other people I really wanted you to come down to Bengal, or Calcutta. I would really like it if you do. It'll be a pleasure for me to take you around town. It's really one of the most beautiful cities in the country.

Started watching your Chernobyl video now im here and obsessed, love your videos and youre a Chelsea fan.Happy days
Congrats on quarter of a million subscribers!!
M so addicted to ur vlog of burma.... Its fun... stay safe... Nd dont poop along the way.... Lol
Great videos but the monk didn't deserve the disrespect.
I've got sick in Thailand a few weeks ago for the same reason... ACs everywhere: buses, hostels, minivans. Still, it didn't stop me from having a blast ! Safe travels, mate!
"Secret .. dont tell to any one" 😂😂
Bald, your content in legitimately inspiring. I'm addicted to your videos but very sad you're a Chelsea supporter. COYS!
Is he Chelsea boy? Too open minded to be Chelsea Mr Bald 😀
Mr.Bald am already addicted ur videos
"Whatever it is its delicious" my my you're really intriguing..happy go lucky..really bold and adventurous..with that sense of humour..with that accent to die for..can't get enough of you Mr.Squiggle..😁🌟👍🧡
I think the hardest situation in place is communication if the people out there can't speak English. .😂😂😂no matter what the food is ..😘😘😘😍😍😍 hope more interesting discovery in Myanmar Mr handsome bald 💘💘💘and take care
You can anyway hire a guide ,if needed..In India almost everyone can speak English
You order chicken and rice and they give you a buffet food thats freaking awsome
Chevy Truck
Its just like Padang food in Indonesia. You get charged for what you eat!
Just like in America, not!
For a pound 😆😆
Like in Sumatra, Indonesia. It's common to get a table with many options and you just eat what you want. And of course you pay according to what you ate.
Now that is advanced civilisation.
All very inspiring stuff reminds me of when I travelled around India (wasn't able to get to Burma back then!). I often wonder how much these places have changed in the last twenty-five years since my last visit? One thing I did notice was that friendly people are still very much in evidence, great countries with some great people. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful travel adventures - best I've seen so far!
I have been literally watching this all day lol!!!
Me too lol
Bals I could watch hours & hours of these video's buddy. For realz. lol
