1. The fence was created after many elephants about 9 of them had crossed that path and slipped down into the waterfall and died, many years ago. 2. At the time you go there, there is little water due to it is winter to summer in Thailand. No one is allowed to swim there. If you want to swim, go to Par Kloew Mai waterfall. 3. Take a night by renting a tent at a campsite there. At night they provide a night tour. 4. Drive carefully, there sometimes a flock of monkeys are sitting in the road. Not joking.
Hi Serg, Yvonne here, neighbor across from you before you moved to Thailand. Got to the last episode on bike tour adventure. Incredible adventures to see through your podcasts. Very impressive. Reminded me of my much younger years traveling alone to Bora Bora. Stay well & much love from Mike & me.
Hey guys! Great to hear from you! Hope all is well. Love the motorbike tours. I’ll be back in Cali for 4-5 days in late April or early May. Will definitely stop by.
I reeaally want to spend some time inside of that National Park one day. Looks amazing. And would love to see the wild elephants! And if Lady Luck really blesses me, a tiger!
That was another great road trip from you, you are the lucky man I live in Bangkok longer than you I never know too much about the country I was born to . I appreciate you for sharing other great videos from you thanks again.
I’ve been riding motorcycles for 30 years. I always wore either a full set of racing, leathers, or highly protective Gore-Tex, pants and jacket. Here, it’s extremely hot. I don’t know if I could wear this gear on a summer day.
That was a nice waterfall sorry you could not swim there. I love that abandoned temple area. So far I have liked everything at a Thai restaurant even with the communication barrier. But YES it is usually spicy.
Thanks Serg, I have seen this series before when you first released, however gone back for a second look as I will be heading that way next month. Appreciate the videos and really like your informative / chatty approach to the content. You make it look easy ! :) FYI, the playlist you created for these 3 vids plays in reverse with YT autoplay, vid 2 playing vid 1 afterwards etc instead of the 1,2,3 autoplay, not sure if its something you can edit, may help views / avoid the click off confusion. All the best, Cheers
I watched this series again a few months back myself. Lol. I should have another motorbike tour hopefully later this month. I’ll look into the auto play feature, thanks for bringing that up.
For waterfalls, it is generally recommended to visit in the rainy season to see them at their utmost majestic beauty (plenty of water). Once I went to one in December and it was completely dry because of the season. Maybe this year you can try some more in the rainy season? Anyway another nice video, man! 👍
Serg, live my life man......i have gone through so much n so does the citizens on oh god knows all the "counties"....u know what I mean. Just enjoy your self for me n everyone.
I hope you can get a little peace through some of my videos. My life is not perfect either. Not by any means. I just focus on the good and try to ignore the things I can’t change.
Hi! Well done. The sound you heard at 13.29 is a Gecko. I love in Nakhonnayok,been there. But they ripped you of with 20 bath for your moped. Next time take a Thai with you.!
Whoh when you showed how steep those stairs are, that was insane! And yea, Monkeys are the a$$holes of the animal kingdom. They will pull the plastic off your bike, bend your ferrings and everything. I came across a beautiful temple that should have been super busy, then I realized why it's not. Monkeys, lots of them. If there is elephant dung that fresh, it's likely in the early morning or evening you could encounter some which sounds fun, but it's not. :). Temple dogs are the nicest. You are doing so good ordering a variety of dishes. Haha they made you deep fried eels. Great video man!
It was during the dry season, so the waterfall didn't have much water. Google sucks. When I was on Mount Fuji Japan, in the open air. It still can't determine where I am in the location. The sound heard at 13.25 minutes is a gecko.
Yeah I have since learned that I went on the dry season. That’s OK. I’m glad I didn’t continue on, although I would’ve seen more of the park. That was one loud gecko!
i'm glad seeing you enjoyed your trip. so, you didn't know gecko. i thought you encountered them by now. they're almost everywhere (incl. my house). many thai + myself are scared of them. by the way, rabies in domestic animals still exist in thailand. you have to be careful with unknown dogs/cats. it's not a good idea having them lick your bare hand like that.
@@LifewithSerg Fried things alway great with beer! and Thailand has plenty of that. Next time try 'N gai todd' ( fried chicken's tendon) 'N' in thai is mean tendon
It's a tokay gecko, Serg. Both tokay and gecko are names derived from the sound it makes. There's another name as well, derived from what many salty expats hear. I'll leave your imagination to figure that one out. 🙂
On rural area, if you drive by following Google Map, sometimes Google Maps advice you to very small road & dangerous, so be careful when you drive in the night time.
from the point of view of Thai people like me Sometimes the national park entrance fee for foreign tourists is a bit too much compared to Thai people. But on a positive note, those funds also help provide employment for national park staff. Because the employees working within are not government officials in most cases. They are just temporary workers with a year/year contract. And those funds will be sent back to the Ministry of Natural Resources of Thailand to be used in the management of national parks throughout Thailand in the next step. as a Thai person I would like to thank tourists from all over the world. who participated in helping to donate those funds to develop the country Including you, I am confident that the money you pay more than Thai people will be put to the best use.
@@LifewithSerg I just looked at the price adjustment information. In fact, the government just raised the price last year. I remember it was only 200 baht/person before.
@@LifewithSerg Recently, there was big news in the country about the Director-General demanding bribes. The Director General of the National Park Service was arrested and removed from office. He's going to go to prison for sure because he pressured the park rangers into paying him tribute. I think this might be the reason for the price adjustment. And I hope there will be a proper price adjustment Corruption among high-ranking government officials and politicians in this country is really a tiresome thing for this country.
@@LifewithSerg It is really local food for the Sothern-part people. For a general Thai person, it is still too hot. The Sothern-part people love very very spicy food. If you go to the South, just be careful with local food.
Wow, I've never seen the coins in the tree. That is really interesting. Those stairs going down the waterfall are unreal. Where is this place, I have to bring mom in law #joking. That waterfall after some rain would be awesome. Good score on the water! It was the good luck coin you put on the tree!
Rob , you’re probably right. It probably was because of the coin. By the way, even though I didn’t mention it, the other side of the bottle have the name of the water in English. It was “win-win” 🤣
'Putting a coin' is some unreasonable cultures in Thailand, same as you drop some coins in a fountain, we always do that on the buddha images, statues, entrances, big trees and some holy things we belief that will bring good luck and some good giving. The wierd sound you hear at the temple is a gecko voice they are some kind of tree lizard those live in a forest and some old wooden house.
@@LifewithSerg I can't believe some of the food (use that word loosely) you eat. Have you ever experienced food poisoning? 😄 I love Thai food and lived in China for years, but I have limits. Anyway look forward to your next videos. Hoping to visit this fall and maybe retire there in a year or so.
I’m think I’m actually pretty tame when it comes to trying food. There’s tons of stuff I won’t eat. Only got sick here once, and it was at an Indian restaurant. Of all places. Lol. Hope you have a great time in Thailand!
Hi Serrg i am from Los Angeles and have been coming to Thailand for 20 years plus and have managed not to pay foreigner pricing anywhere in thailand as i believe like may others do these foreigner pricing are a practice that if we recipicated would cause a backlash ! as in many ways its raciest or at the very least a shake down of all foreigners that do go to these state parks...Shame on the Thai government for continuing this policy..

As the thai sayes, tok kae. Same as the wall gekko but bigger 😀

Yes I saw some monkeys on the road!
Have a nice trip.
drive safely.🏍
Thank you, I will
The coin that you left behind on the pillar paid for that bottle of water bro. 😂
Karma, right??

Hi! I’m the man who met you in BTS today! I’m your big fan and watched every single clip!
Nice to meet you today!
That was great to meet you today! Thank you for all the kind words and for your support.
Hey Serg thanks for the beautiful Impressions. The Landscape is so nice.
The Waterfall is beautiful with a naturally character.
I love your Videos.
👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Was a wonderful trip.
Glad you had a nice trip Serg! The national park was very beautiful.
It certainly was! Definitely the highlight of this whole trip.
13,22 it's a Lizard/Gekko that make this sound. They are very shy
Wow. Was so loud.
5:35 The brand of that water is "Win Win". I find that very funny haha!
Yes. You’re the first person to notice that. I forgot to show the English side.
I reeaally want to spend some time inside of that National Park one day.
Looks amazing. And would love to see the wild elephants! And if Lady Luck really blesses me, a tiger!
It’s a wonderful park. I would really love to go back and spend more time there.
Sorry,not one tiger there. All gone.
11:18 Awwww, they are look so glad to meet you.
Yes! They were perfectly OK to see me. It was so very nice.
That was another great road trip from you, you are the lucky man I live in Bangkok longer than you I never know too much about the country I was born to . I appreciate you for sharing other great videos from you thanks again.
I am delighted to share all these places with you. More motorbike trips coming soon!
Man I miss that Thailand life 🔥🔥
You’ll be back soon bro!
Have a nice trip Serg.
Thank you, I will
Watching you eat made my day! So funny. You have no fear my man.
I appreciate that, ha ha. Love to try new stuff.
Very glad to see your wearing your full protective gear.... so many painfull memories riding in tea shirt and shorts...
I’ve been riding motorcycles for 30 years. I always wore either a full set of racing, leathers, or highly protective Gore-Tex, pants and jacket. Here, it’s extremely hot. I don’t know if I could wear this gear on a summer day.
6:27 ขึ้นถึงตอนเดินกลับขึ้นไป 😅😅😅
Yes. Thank you.
Beautiful ride! The noise you hear is a Tokay gecko
You are right! I had no idea they could make that much noise
That was a nice waterfall sorry you could not swim there.
I love that abandoned temple area. So far I have liked everything at a Thai restaurant even with the communication barrier. But YES it is usually spicy.
Yeah, I don’t mind spicy, but this dish was just way too spicy
สวัสดีค่ะและแล้วคุณมาที่นี้ธธมชาติสวยงามถ้ามีความท้าทายต้องที่ ภูกระดึงสวยเช่นกัน 🙏 ⛰️
Thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed the trip. Great video
Thanks 👍
Loved the video, damn monkeys...lovable dogs...you take more chances on food then I would, thumbs up...Matt
Food roulette baby! Lolll
The only time I got sick in Thailand was eating at a western restaurant, go figure.
Nice vid Serg, most soi dogs are ok around temples, used to people, at night maybe different. Back in Melbourne now. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍
Very good video clips.
👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much!
Great video, greetings from Santa Clara County sheriff’s office - Morgan Hill sub station

Looked like a good day! Waterfall was much larger, you saw a dog that had a rotating tail and you needed geisha feet for those stairs! Hahaha!
You got that right! So much fun.

Hi! Well done. The sound you heard at 13.29 is a Gecko. I love in Nakhonnayok,been there. But they ripped you of with 20 bath for your moped. Next time take a Thai with you.!
I’m not worried about paying the 20 baht. Had. A great time.
Nice trip
Thanks.
Whoh when you showed how steep those stairs are, that was insane! And yea, Monkeys are the a$$holes of the animal kingdom. They will pull the plastic off your bike, bend your ferrings and everything.

The dogs in the temple were my favorite part. The deep fried eels were so delicious.
@@LifewithSerg Yea, agreed. Eels aren't bad. For some reason early on, everyone that I let pick food for me, picked eels. People here are cute :)

Enjoyable vlog. Would you consider moving from Bangkok to a more rural area?
Maybe at some point, I will consider it. I love to get out into nature and enjoy the peace and quiet, but I also like the busy city life.
Serg, why you went to Nakhon Nayok in Feb. Its low season, everything dries out. Better go during July-Sep.
It’s ok. This is how I learn. Focus on enlightenment and not on logic. 😊
i'm glad seeing you enjoyed your trip. so, you didn't know gecko. i thought you encountered them by now. they're almost everywhere (incl. my house). many thai + myself are scared of them. by the way, rabies in domestic animals still exist in thailand. you have to be careful with unknown dogs/cats. it's not a good idea having them lick your bare hand like that.
I’ve seen many gecko, but I did not know they make that sound. I am very careful with the dogs. Don’t worry.
The fish are Banana Root Fish (rak kluy) because the shape of fish like banana root. the fish are good w/beer , Right 😄👍
Yes, thank you it was great with beer!
@@LifewithSerg Fried things alway great with beer! and Thailand has plenty of that. Next time try 'N gai todd' ( fried chicken's tendon)

RichardHead? Lmao. That was one loud gecko!
Are the Ford Mustangs in Thailand right or left-hand drive?
New ones are right hand drive. They are ridiculously expensive here. $113k for eco boost v6. And $150k for a GT.
On rural area,
if you drive by following Google Map,
sometimes Google Maps advice you to very small road & dangerous,
so be careful when you drive in the night time.
You’re absolutely correct. This is the exact reason why I will only ride a very short distance of a few minutes at night.

But on a positive note, those funds also help provide employment for national park staff. Because the employees working within are not government officials in most cases.

I don’t mind paying more at all. I understand the reasoning behind it. I’m just very happy to be able to visit these places.

Wow! That my city but not come deep in here Lol , One day will come น้ำตกเหวุสุวัติ Oh be careful of Big animals
I have 3 more videos coming from this trip.
The first dish with yellow color is called Khua-Ghing; generally very spicy. Serg, you are now a Nakhon Nayok guy 55.

haew narok means hell's abyss and the sound you heard at the abndoned temple is a giant gecko lool they are soo ugly
Thanks so much for letting me know. That noise came from a giant gecko? I would’ve never guessed.
The barking in the jungle is a gecko.
Aha. Ok thanks!
I think you shoud get some cb 500x and traveling from north to south thailand and SoutheastAsia

Are you alright, Serg? Did you crash your motorbike? I saw that instagram story of yours yesterday so I thought I'd ask.
Nope, no crash but close. Just kicked in some assholes quarter panel for almost killing me.
Did you see any elephants there?😁
Noooo. Sadly. I just didn’t have the time to explore more.

Because of some water source in Khao Yai National Park has crocodiles so No One isn't allowed to swim there. It's the truth.
Ohhh that’s wild.
Serge, did you lose weight on Thai buns? What is your beauty secret?
Lollll. I have actually gained 5kg in last 3 months. 😑

Yes it’s 10 times more if you are a foreigner.

I get it, but I don’t tend to focus on that and just roll with it. I think there’s bigger issues at hand.
