I'm Losing it...

[@franksaunders6534]

Sam, you're keeping it real, which is what I have come to love about your vlogs. Head up, mate!

[@propellerhead2000]

Rural Farang Tip: There's always a mom and pop store nearby that sells ice cold beer and 91 "benzine" decanted from recycled Hong Thong liter bottles.

[@Mataios_World]

youre not alone brother, I arrived back in September to live in Pattaya & not once have I sat down to have a beer & a meaningful conversation with a fellow fluent English speaker, ofcourse I could go to any bar & find someone but I dont trust most people based on personal life experiences, use this time to reflect on your own life & creative ideas moving forward 😁

[@spindle2323]

You are still winning Sam , keep going 🇦🇺✌️

[@GoneAdrift]

Oh man, you’re so good to me 😁😁😁

[@spindle2323]

@GoneAdrift In the new century there are no barriers. Distances do not exist the network is universal. In the new era communication is instantaneous and your dreams come true ❤️🇦🇺✌️

For a more comfy travel experience with the heat and sun, wear uv blocking lightweight pants and jacket. The breeze from moving will keep you cool and the protection stops you from getting a sun or wind burn. Far better than what you are wearing I assure you.

[@markriggall7741]

Chin up Sam, you’re doing what many people dream of doing.

[@hozayatlarge]

Respect 🙏 Sam. You will look back on days like this with fond memories. It's brutal riding all day every day. Keep the rubber side down bra. Safe journey chok dee mak

[@ianallen5053]

Mate, I told you when you first started your trip to grab some long sleeves & long pants. I’ve been riding motorbikes for a VERY long time & in quite a few different countries. An easy way to protect yourself in hot climates is to get some cheap overalls. As soon as you stop for any length of time, just take them off. Simple 👍 Keep your head in the game mate, you’re doing well & have a lot of people following you & wishing you well. Stay safe & keep it upright 🙂

[@streetfoodmagic2024]

Always nice to see a REAL day in the life. Interesting point about missing a real conversation.....so easy to overlook such a simple pleasure. I had to laugh.....when you were explaining the situation of the fuel.....when right behind you was a de-commissioned fuel stop ha ha. Keep on truckin brudda, loving this series!

[@Bngn_Snkrs]

Gday from down under where the water is free but tastes like chlorine!

[@thomasgallagher1752]

I'm so loving ur on this journey,, although u have many obstacles,, ur getting through them excellent viewing,, be safe

[@kentstrm2878]

Keep showing that real stuff. The real behind the scenes. Its the missing piece for many wiewers. Keep on trucking mate.

[@GoneAdrift]

Kent!!!! Tak 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@kentstrm2878]

@GoneAdrift værsågod mate. And let me know if u can use that bungalow we talked about up in Mae Rim

[@foxmulder4560]

Sounds like you need a hug mate. Great job working through it. Hope you have a better few days..

[@Steve_77777]

Sam, wash your clothes in the shower????

[@rebmooc2727]

Hello Sam, met you in Pattaya last year with my wife in one of Nicks' bars. Hookup corner I think. Keep up the good work, real videos. Take care, Cy & Ting🙏

[@GoneAdrift]

Thanks for watching guys 🙏🏻

[@TheNicholaas]

Sam tomorrow's another day bud.keep it rollin 😂

[@planb7075]

I love it , Thailand that is , your awesome as well mate 😎

[@lordrossmacca]

Life on the road can be hard Sam but you are learning heaps along the way. Keep smiling

[@Ben_in_Bangkok]

Solo travel is like this, a few minor issues, and it feels like the world’s going to end. But then I’d tell myself, what would I be doing if I wasn’t here? Probably sitting in an office back home, bored out of my mind. I’d rather be riding around Tak, trying to wash my filthy clothes, any day of the week 😆 Great video mate, looking forward to the next one!

[@GoneAdrift]

Perfectly summarised! Chin up Sammy boy!!!!

[@brinka19]

Chin up mate, you’re doing well 👍🇦🇺

[@foki_official]

Stay positive. The last thing you'll want to remember from your journey is the negatives. 👍

[@timc1966]

Another good one mr drift, keep it up....

[@wolfmccarron]

This is what vlogging is about? Thank you. How many vloggers need to walk down Soi 6? C'mon?

[@biffer24]

Oh mate the loneliness of the running man. Chip there just didn't allow you to have the shits and share it. Anyway that hotel was lush. Washin'.

[@allanwilliams1814]

"Life wasn't meant to be easy", terrible saying, mate we are all with you.

[@woodenmonster]

Grumpy old man this morning. 😜😜

[@roadsofjapan6009]

Sam I manage the long hard haul out where I am with a phone call to a mate while taking a walk in the evening not every day but I try once every 2-3 days it makes the world of difference.

[@dksharron]

Santa Monica Summer t-shirt. Good selection as I am from Venice, a neighboring city. Long sleeves are helpful.

[@simon8873]

Maybe its time for a good massage :) have fun mate cheers

[@tobyk8125]

Excellent, very real, little vlog. Keep it up

[@MrPat-UK]

Buy some washing detergent and use the river if you have to, at least they are washed, dry them on the river bank, just have a chill out day, catch up on your vlogs, whilst the sun dries your clothes, Your be surprised how better your feel ..

[@ludvikkemp]

There will be plenty of veggie foods and english speaking people in Chiang Mai. Just try and enjoy everything about the ride, including the difficult parts. I for one am enjoying this a lot. Safe travels!

[@gingjok]

Tak is awesome. Rode down from Mae Hong Song 2014. Yes your right about the water, and it'll never happen now b/c bottle water industry too lucrative.

[@michaelthegreat44]

Great stuff Sam, another good video, did mention that the next challenge might be enrolling in a Thai language course, speaking English with inflections doesn't really cut it in some places...trust me on that I know, You owe it to yourself if you are choosing to make Thailand your home to learn the language a little more, Not sure on how you are feeling about this type of content, nor how far into the trip you are verses the date released, perhaps a recap with map of where you went , and include the next leg map into the end of video.... This content is frankly much more interesting than that in and around Pattaya, that has been done to death. Pattaya to Krabi up next 😁 As always stay safe and enjoy the journey

[@GoneAdrift]

To Krabi we shall GOOOOOO!!!!!!

[@PimUijttewaal]

Just a question about the "Lost in translation" issues. Doesn't using Google Translate on your phone work? Speaking English to the app and outputting Thai?

[@Grimreapervlogs]

Whats been your fav place so far and why ?

[@PimUijttewaal]

Thanks and here's a little something for your pump pump 🤪

[@GoneAdrift]

Thank you Mr Pim 🙏🏻😁

[@user-jl8ie6vb8r]

It can be done

[@sandgroper1980]

👍🏼🍻🇦🇺

[@spindle2323]

[@spindle2323]

@@sandgroper1980 Cheers mate 🇦🇺✌️

[@HHENRIK29]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@lmapicas3279]

Plenty of free water in that dam plus you could wash yah clothes but it might pollute the dam tho

[@stevenJEDI3]

Should make your Vlogs a little bit longer, I think it’s a bit too quick

[@SouthernCrossGO]

😂 bloody pommys always whinging😂 google translate works great mate😂😂

[@GoneAdrift]

Whinging bloody Australia’s ay!!!!

[@jakedenteith2335]

Just wash cloths in the shower with you and put in the netting on your backpack to dry when riding next day buddy.

[@tobyprice1092]

Na man is oil.

[@TheNicholaas]

Sam wash your clothes I can smell them thru the phone 😂😂😂

[@GoneAdrift]

Bahahhhaha

[@deanjudd4185]

Bro not trying to put you down or be a troll but us English,Australians, Americans are very lucky to have drinkable tap water alot of country's don't have that pleasure please don't put these country's down that's wot makes them as good as they are again not a troll just disagree with ya

[@GoneAdrift]

I can completely get down with that. I looked at a world map of clean drinking water and were in a MINORITY in England, Australia, the US etc!!!

[@davidhenshall]

Technically not free either, I pay over £400 a year in water bills. The quality also in my opinion is questionable so I pay more on top of this with filters. That said love your vids Sam 👌

[@wolfmccarron]

It's called Google? LOL
