She Was Emotional When I Did This In Bhutan 🇧🇹 (sad)

Arriving In The Most Authentic Country In The World 🇧🇹

After traveling to over 40 countries, I got used to experiencing different sides of the world, learning about cultures and traditions, and seeing extremes that become normal after a while. Since I have been to Afghanistan, I have not experienced the "wow" effect since last year. But this has changed with my short visit to the Buddhist Kingdom of Bhutan.
Bhutan is the country that I believe is the most authentic in the world. It is probably the only country prioritizing "High Value, Low Volume" tourism. "High Value" relates to targeting mindful and responsible visitors, ensuring high revenue per visitor, and supporting a quality tourism infrastructure. Bhutan aims to avoid hyper-tourism and its damaging effect on the environment. The country currently allows only 300,000 visitors per year, which was much less in the past years.
After stepping into Bhutan, let me say I have been officially in every South Asian country. There are so many unique things about Bhutan that are very surprising to the rest of the world:
1. "Bhutan" translates to "Land of the Thunder Dragon."
2. Thimpu is one of only two capital cities in Asia without a single traffic light. (The other is Pyongyang, North Korea.)
3. Bhutan is one of the last countries to introduce television to its people. The government lifted a TV and Internet ban only 25 years ago.
4. National dress is compulsory for Bhutanese citizens.
5. Bhutan has never been conquered.
6. Bhutanese people love chillies.
7. Mountaineering is now banned, as the highest peaks are considered sacred.
8. All tourists must pay a 200 USD fee per day just to be in the country.
9. Bhutan is the ONLY carbon-negative country in the world.
10. Bhutan is known for its unique Gross National Happiness (GNH) philosophy.

Kuzuzangpo la! I am your loyal subscriber and I am glad you have chosen to come to Bhutan!. I have been watching your channel for a long time. I am very glad you finally chose Bhutan to be part of your Asia tours. I have been wondering when you will arrive in Bhutan for a long time. I must say the journey that I have followed you with the background you have initially said about doing things that you wanted and following through in such a deterministic manner has made me love you more. You are a GEM of the people as you have that quality of human being that one feels very much aspired in the profound meaning of our existence of being satisfied with existence.

Kuza Zangpola Mr. Davud, when you gave 1000BTN, they were genuinely happy. For us, BTN 1000 is a huge amount ($12)! Thanks for visiting our country and great to learn that you are having great time. Edit: I commented at the beginning of the video but when I have seen till last, you have been giving lot of money to our people which made me to appreciate your generosity. You are first tourist which I have seen buying so much stuffs.

@@dias4239 Bhutanese will eventually return to Bhutan. When you became an adult you left your parents does that you mean you were unhappy with them? going abroad to study/work is not betraying our country.

[@dias4239]

@@youtuberunbyBLM Jingoism aside, once after acquiring PR and eventually citizenship of Australia, nobody is going back to Bhutan to become jobless where there are literally no industry, financial sectors & opportunities. There are already thousands of Australian citizens with Bhutanese ancestry who have taken up their passport ditching its own.

[@dias4239]

@@blackdrukpa Hyper jingoism again, while the reality is starkly different. Join Bhutanese forum where youths pour their frustrations day in- day out, due to lack of opportunities & insecured future, so they have to immigrate to developed countries like Australia, USA, Canada for PR and citizenship. Else they won't be spending their fortune (selling their properties) to get education only, for quality education India is already there in neighbourhood. Bhutanese youths are immigrating in hordes - for PR, job opportunities, citizenship and secured life. FACT!

Leela is a perfect jolly guide

[@communicationUC]

She’s decent but I feel suffocated watching her explain things as a guide… call me negative person but I feel like I can do a better explanation compare to her with a zero percent experience in tourism. Simple example: she can just say fermented cheese instead of dried cheese.. as a Bhutanese living abroad seeing her explain things, I’m not at all satisfied or content as you may call it. Sorry if I’m being like a Gordon Ramsey of Bhutanese tourism😁
