[@Carolyn_Burt]

That awesome moment when you go to click on the latest Fun For Louis and you see yourself as the intro!

[@Zeerialo]

YEaa

[@zerad3307]

Carolyn Burt Woah that is you!!

[@OppositeTheOtherOfficial]

Louis is simply a legend. His life has been an encouragement to me to not place value on things that you can buy, but rather place value on things you experience. Thanks dude!

[@crabbisk9767]

Samuel Music It's still materialism though because flights, hotels etc costs lots of money, even more than material objects. Life is more about relationships. I travel for a living (management consulting) and it gets monotonous after awhile, but I never get bored of spending time with my family or friends and meeting new people even in the dullest places.

[@phalgunkaje8363]

***** With the Louis' lifestyle.. he doesn't do the same monotonous and repetitive grind that a corporate job requires.. Probably, only repetitive thing that he does is, going to airport and flying.. rest of the time it's always new place, new adventure, new culture, new people etc..

[@avmakeme]

Samuel Music I could not agree with you more... in life we treasure our memories most! Louis is just pure awesome sauce, one million thumbs up for that!!!

[@sixandahalfmiles]

It's crazy how much you fit into one day! Loving the vlogs!

[@graciejane123]

sixandahalfmiles I know! Especially when I'm travelling I'd just spend the whole day checking I have everything!

[@RNColgan]

There is something about London which gives you this incredible feeling of opportunity! If you haven't been there i really recommend it. I can't wait to record a video their over the next couple weeks :)

[@andystephens3487]

***** I live on the outskirts. Best city in the world.

[@Abdulaziz-gc5es]

Its not a very good tourist destination for upper mid class because most hotels there that are good are fully booked months prior so we always end up in a expinsive shitty ass hotel

[@TheGlambitiousBeauty]

YAY just in time for my well deserved study break. These chemistry past papers for fridays exam are slowing driving me crazy!

[@sixandahalfmiles]

TheGlambitiousBeauty Good luck!

[@TheGlambitiousBeauty]

sixandahalfmiles thanks beautiful x

[@Mojoe44]

TheGlambitiousBeauty I have Chemistry on Friday as well, good luck!

[@cobaltutopia]

I can relate haha, good luck for the rest of your exams too!

[@TheGlambitiousBeauty]

Michael Harding thanks

[@Carolyn_Burt]

I don't think anyone else makes traveling look so easy and peaceful.

[@MrHeheHeHo]

I would spend the whole time checking that I have everything! #StressHead

[@TonysTravels]

But traveling is easy and peaceful. Most people don't realise how easy it is

[@MrHeheHeHo]

***** It's hella expensive

[@TonysTravels]

Lauren Johnson it's only really as expensive as you make it, you would be surprised how little you can live on each day in some parts of the world and still have a great time

[@7GeorgeB1]

It's actually quite odd watching Louis vlog in London haha

[@7GeorgeB1]

George Braithwaite When's the next adventure?

[@23davidian96]

George Braithwaite Did you watch the vlog? He's going to Namibia :D

[@cameronmacdonald8394]

George Braithwaite You must not have gotten to the end of a video, which is where he's on a plane to South Africa.

[@7GeorgeB1]

23davidian96 Commented that about half way through the video, got too caught up on myself! But thank you!

[@raymondlenguyen]

You know you're an ultimate traveler when your hotel is your river.

[@Fullystock]

yeah hahaha

[@Fullystock]

just checked you out, very cool channel. safe travels! from another fellow traveler -j

[@rawrm247]

When you talked about your sister you just sounded so genuinely proud of her. The world needs more genuine people.

[@jackbarron6726]

Without Louis vlogs I would never have started living my own adventure, thanks Louis for 808 days of inspiration

[@JonnyRaby]

Does anyone else prefer it when Louis vlogs from the uk?

[@MrHeheHeHo]

It's nice to see him home ☺️

[@FactsAtYourFingertips123]

Yes!

[@castlearlo]

Yes

[@oliviah5651]

Jonny Raby YES!

[@shaunvlog]

Always fresh Louis. London is done to death, or so people might think. So you take to the Thames! Love it!

[@MakingithappenVlog]

Yes it happend to me last time we where in Asia - we went on an island daytrip to do some snorkeling and we left the group - stayed behind on the island and decided to get a ride back to mainland the next day - wasn't vlogging back then yet but I have a short video on my travel channel :)

[@LittleDergon]

Fun for Louis videos always give me the strange feeling of both wanting to climb a mountain just because I can, and wanting to buckle down on work to pursue my dream career. Thanks for the inspiration Louis, you're awesome :D xx

[@remotedarren]

I have a weird obsession with water - I love walking by it, sailing on it, kayaking on it, but hate swimming in it. Missed out so many cool snorkelling opportunities on my round the world trip.. Oh well, I should learn to swim one day! Heading to New Zealand for a six week road trip in the morning. Love your vlogs Louis.

[@charlottek7721]

When I watch your blogs from around the world, all the places seem so far away but whenever you're in London it always makes me feel home :) River trips are always so beautiful in the city, not many people think about taking a trip along the Thames when they come to London but it is a must! I live near Richmond, 5 minutes from the river and I love walking along it, so cool to see places I've visited many times in your blog! :)

[@maddiebaxter1]

Even when Louis isn't on the other side of the world, his vlogs are still amazing :)

[@stevefromeng]

do you get sick of plane food bro ?

[@MrHeheHeHo]

Considering Louis used to eat road kill, I'm sure he can cope with plane food!😅

[@caraquinn8387]

+Laura Johnson I think he means do u get tired of eating it soo much

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Big Steve From England I usually like airplane food actually. Partly just because it's something to do when you're otherwise stuck just sitting on a plane. When there's free wine that helps too.

[@MrHeheHeHo]

Cara Quinn It's Lauren btw :) Haha, yeah I understood what he meant - I just thought I would make a joke out of it!

[@stevefromeng]

Lauren Johnson it was a great joke

[@JamesPickering]

The guy at 7 seat in the UL 8+ Louis' casually vlogged is a GB rower haha

[@miriambacker7065]

Haha your first sentence reminded me of Lonely Island - "I'm on a boat!"

[@tianasaenz7959]

FunForLouis thank you for making these vlogs and having a passion for traveling the world! You have inspired me, and many others I'm sure, to want to travel the world! I hope to travel around the globe once I finish college! Excited to see your future adventures!!

[@christianadventure]

Now that's a pretty wild ride, wake up in a boat, travel on the river for the day and be ready to fly out to Johannesburg later on in the day. No wonder he looked tired at the end! Whew! :)

[@DJMixomnia]

Haha louis, maybe you guys should do a boating course before you damage your motor again..

[@keandric2765]

***** Lol, right?? That's what I was thinking on the previous vlog. I was also wondering if they're supposed to have some type of license as well... lol

[@kmaish09]

So jealous!! I would love to do something like that!! London looks gorgeous! I need to travel there some day!

[@maliburide]

Louis...you need to sail on the Mediterranean and vlog doing it...or Sail in the carribean in the winter and vlog.

[@okafisher9490]

Love your vlogs Louis, they are so chilled!

[@noiretblancetmoi]

Love in the music Louis, real nice choice of funky jazz

[@LindsayMeadDailyVlog]

That clip of you guys putting the boat in the shed made me think of The Walking Dead android game. Looked just like that spot in the game.

[@Nathanisupinhere]

Did you drive with the motor down like that?? Pro tip when you are towing a boat like that put the engine up you should be able to pull out a bolt on the side and swing it up. That way you wont risk hitting the prop on the road over bumps. Also put a bucket on it or something that way you also don't risk damaging the propeller on anything else.

[@moa4269]

i wonder why louis make a funny sound when he talks to women

[@bokeflo]

Very cool views of Tower Bridge, the Shard, Millennium Bridge,Big Ben and the house of Parliament.

[@cameronmacdonald8394]

I always love the music in your vids, but this one was smooth. Nice pick!

[@WeGottaSituation]

They should have a plane named after Louis as much as he flies. xD

[@teunkenter9571]

New challenge, pick a random video of Louis and travel to wherever he was!

[@TheJLJuke]

Louis, come to the Grand West casino arena and come see the ice hockey games Monday nights. The early game is the younger players then the seniors play at 9 I believe. This monday I'll be the goalie for the Penguins. I'm Canadian but I came to Cape Town for the summer to play on a team here. It would be great for the league to get the publicity from your videos

[@SeventeenPointFive]

Louis, you should go on some sort of yachting holiday/adventure think that could potentially be up your street.

[@shanevslife]

The Houses of Parliament are so beautiful

[@caseyJ2807]

Louis you should apply for bear grills the island! You would be so amazing!!

[@InsideTheLens]

Awesome video louis, you're such an inspiration!

[@Uniquepanda17]

I've got to take that exact flight in a month, first time flying on my own but I feel like an airport pro already from watching Louis' vlogs!

[@HeyHeyitsSami]

Louis waking up is so me ahahahaha I feel the pain

[@alexoboubouka]

Please come to Greece I really want to meet you in person !!!

[@jakesutton5808]

Louis is actually quite cute in a very weird way, especially the bit where he was putting the boat in the garage :')

[@PlamenDrop]

The music was on point today!

[@ToyaDee78]

I don't know how Louis does all that travel. Just watching his video gets me tired lol

[@MagicHarps]

I don't get how all you daily vloggers end up with such a huge and awesome background music selection

[@aoifag6716]

Musicians send in their music to get played so the artist gets free promo and the KZbinr gets free background music!

[@MagicHarps]

Aoifa Guy A win-win. Music can make or break a lot of videos. I just know that finding it's the hardest part for me

[@dogandcrow8479]

Looking back on the boat trips and now as long as its the same playlist? jp is next

[@SamsTypicalLife]

ENJOY LIFE. LIVE THE ADVENTURE. I LOVE THE ENDING EVERYTIME!

[@sarahbella6445]

The people on the plane must wonder why Louis takes so long in the bathroom :P Can't wait for your trip with SP! :)

[@Christopherlawmusic]

Louis just casually passing my school's boat club at putney embankment. Feeling good louis, feeling good. #rowing

[@angusstorey2130]

I thought this said Wanking Up On The River...

[@sampsonlewis2456]

You should learn to read then...

[@Abdulaziz-gc5es]

Sampson Lewis You should learn that the human brain makes assumption of what is the word by just reading the first 2 and last 2 letter

[@nikita-ku5ib]

his blogs makes me wanna go travelling!! under 301 club put your hands up!!!!

[@YeSaintRose]

I haven't kept up with Louis in a while... Question is this the same Andy from his 17 year old Road Trip to Paris video?

[@bstnbsch9917]

Is this a record? One whole night in London!

[@juliahoughton12]

I am always in the exact same place as Louis, only one day earlier! Literally just walked through Terminal 5 in Heathrow.. Hopefully I can actually run in to him for once during my travels instead of just barely missing the chance to meet him. Love your videos, Louis!

[@phlptnc]

Hey Louis! I was wondering, are your penny board organic? Or maybe original? Planning to buy one soon. Hoping you gonna read this asap. Thanks! Enjoy life, peace out ✌👊😁

[@SunsetSixFeet]

I was in Tried&True at the same time as you, a few tables away. Food is great there. Surreal! Great channel :)

[@thomasmccormack5849]

I remember the place where you where when u dais u were getting breakfast. You went there with the boat a long time ago and the streets were flodded

[@ConnorMcGill98]

still cant believe you slept on the river!

[@ConnorMcGill98]

knowing my luck id have floated away and woke up in the middle of the channel haha

[@MrHeheHeHo]

Well that would certainly be an adventure!

[@ConnorMcGill98]

Lauren Johnson an adventure worth having! :)

[@MrHeheHeHo]

***** Lets do it!

[@ConnorMcGill98]

Lauren Johnson pick you up in my boat in 20 mins

[@ItsJTurner]

Louis, ever thought of going into the Bermuda Triangle? That would be a true adventure.

[@DylanVlogsLife]

Wow such a great video man! I can never sleep when on the water as rocking annoys me, I have a sailing yatch locally which I go on with my parents and we said to France in summer :)

[@claraeast9069]

I cant even how tall Louis and his dad is, palm trees haha

[@XEmeralDQueenX]

Nice boat ride beautiful sight :)

[@nashcomb]

Ahahaha oh Louis, saving some of your dinner for later on your lip in the end clip! :P

[@MrHeheHeHo]

Don't we all?😏

[@nashcomb]

Hahaha I sure do sometimes! When the dinner is just SO good that you struggle to let go... =P

[@theliamcooke]

This is so strange, I live near GYC and have been there a few times and now you're there!!

[@RayRawrRay]

i can say that London is a great place to live in ! Landan lifee!!

[@lou.104]

Great vlog Louis! Keep it up bro

[@katieellenherrington]

you went right past my house :) i live real near battersea power station (Y), you should have popped in for a coffee :P

[@tonyspoetry]

just living the boating life :)

[@mantajdhaliwal2581]

Anyone else ever catch themselves staring at Louis' physique when he's topless haha those traps!!! This man makes me excited for life

[@hulz]

Wish I could have the same dream-job Louis, but makes me wonder if it isn't extremely lonely sometimes..

[@CocoAstronaut]

Damnn, that 747-800 was sick.

[@joelscheper8275]

Why did you not travel with your awesome penny board, should be a lot easier on the airport with those 2 mile gates. : )

[@tonislifeofvariety4135]

[@NickVennlig]

Great video, Louis! Anybody know the song starting at around 0:45?

[@jackpeterfilmss]

Where you off to now?! :)

[@TheArthur643]

You should give the boat a cool name !

[@danielscake8390]

I just began making daily vlogs, I am on day 20, but I find it so hard to keep myself motivated especially with low views. How do you do it Louis?

[@rayyankhaify]

Anyone knows whether Louis uses his vlogging camera to take his amazing still photos too? x

[@TonysTravels]

He has a gh4 and a nx1

[@ibarrettall]

louis really likes that powerstation... i wonder why

[@horatius780]

Wow I can smell the airplane food while watching this, that's actually crazy Enjoy Jo'burg!

[@bengrimes8488]

Why the ads halfway through.. I like watching the videos but this 2 ads per video thing is just annoying

[@Abdulaziz-gc5es]

This is his job... It's like... let's say over time

[@RunningwththeWolves]

You were right by my house!! Why didn't you come and say hi?! :P XD

[@maxjones8821]

[@MrHeheHeHo]

[@maxjones8821]

[@BlayZinn]
