Congratulations on ten years of Backpacking Bananas!!

[@kingabyczkowska54]

Congratulations on 10 years of the channel! 🎉👏🏻🍾 You are doing a brilliant job, love watching your videos and explore how amazing our planet is.

[@kerk6428]

Karen! I've been wondering how she is and am really happy to see her back on your channel. Congrats on the 10 years! I remember the last time you were in Banana Beach was with the boys, and you didn't have your gopro. You said the snorkelling was amazing, and was bummed that you couldn't show us. I'm thankful that we finally get to see it this time :)

[@MillaExplores]

[@BackpackingBananas]

Thank you!

[@colette-tj2gk]

What a lovely beach! Just wondered if you have any tips for what to do with your valuables when you are swimming?

[@jamiecollier4104]

Hey colette, what I usually do is take a waterbag/drybag with me and snorkel with it on me, it also acts as a object that passing boats can see, and they know your there, anddd itl keep all your valuables safe 😊

[@niar.johnson8202]

Congrats!! Been watching you since 2015 🎉 I’ve been to 10 countries thanks to your information 💕

[@BackpackingBananas]

Karen is holding my backpack 😅 it is PERFECT ☺️ it’s the Black Hole Tote by Patagonia

Nice Day ❤❤

[@jordanmurphy6375]

Hey if you have no idea how to ride a motorbike is there somewhere they can teach you, or is it fairly easy to pick up?

[@Ayaan-c-w9i]

What are the days pool party is happening?

[@indie-travel-stories]

Do you think there is a cut off age for hosteling ? I remember by my thirties I didn’t want to stay in dorms any more, and now I’m more likely to stay in hotels than hostel private rooms. Of course you’re much less likely to meet people. Interested in your take.

[@BackpackingBananas]

I think it’s more based on the age you feel than your actual age. Knowing hostels are generally filled with people age 18-38. And if you want to/like hanging with that age bracket.

When you swim where you keep your belongs?

[@FatTonyTheSkipper]

I wonder for myself if I continuously travel and live this fun life then are all my friendships just short lived in the country I'm in momentarily...

[@BackpackingBananas]

That’s the case a lot, but the friends who you meet who you really like, you stay in touch with and make an effort to meet again ☺️

[@FatTonyTheSkipper]

@@BackpackingBananas awe thats the thing, i love that in human long term community.. guess there's only one way to find out!

[@AMellens20]

Even if you get an international drivers license unless you’ve done a motorbike test in the UK you’ll still get fined in Thailand xx

[@carlosmarindiez4118]

! Congratulations lady on an amazing 10 year hard work. Showing us amazing places unknown to many of us.🫡

[@darr1954]

You are terrific - my favorite!! I’m getting ready to head off to Portugal and Spain on a two week tour with my community choir and will take your spirit of adventure and fearlessness with me!

[@BANGTEEZ_IN_YOUR_AREA]

When you go of swimming solo or with others what do you do with your belongings like phone and keys. I don’t like the idea of just stuffing them in ur bag and asking someone to watch it ☹️ my idea would be to put it all in a plastic sleeve bag and dig it slightly under the sand with my towel above it. But what do you do? 😂

[@BackpackingBananas]

I Guess it depends on exactly where I am but most of the time in Thailand I just leave it in my bag on my towel, I’ve never heard of any stories of people having their things stolen. Sorry, I know that’s probably not what you wanted to hear 😅

[@H3LLB0Y2403]

Schweppes a Thai drink? It's from Germany but nonetheless pretty good, yeah :D

[@haphazardtube8027]

So did the scooter rental place not want to see an international driver's license when you rented the scooter? PS: happy 10 years on KZbin!

[@BackpackingBananas]

Nope, they don’t even ask to see a regular license, the renters will rent out to anyone

Hostels like this are really like all inclusive resorts for millenials lol. Not the type of hostel I vibe with..

You watch the world news propaganda off of TV I thought I liked you

[@tommoody6077]

came for the chi chis

[@wessley4606]

Wow, you are exactly the type of person I desperately try to *avoid* when in Thailand 🤮 (or anywhere for that matter) hated everything about this and had to skip most of it.

[@BackpackingBananas]

Flattered you continued watching since you hated it 😂 but since you’re here, why’d you hate me so much?

[@wessley4606]

@@BackpackingBananas because I'm optimistic (read the comment, I skipped most of it, hoping it would get better... It got worse) and it's not "hateful" because someone finds you unbelievably annoying? . . . Or are you that entitled you think that everyone must find you utterly adorable? 🤣 You're the one that's put yourself out there for comments and feedback... So voilà.

[@BackpackingBananas]

@@wessley4606 oh you just find me annoying 😅 you were the one who mentioned the hatred so I thought perhaps I did something terribly wrong. All good Wessley, I’d probably find you quite insufferable as well based on your tone ❤️

[@wessley4606]

@@BackpackingBananas middle class, self entitled *narc's* are annoying to everyone lv 👍 You'd realise that if you stuck your head out of your own little bubble.
