In January of this year I said goodbye to Canada's cold winter and travelled to Thailand to explore the north of the country by motorcycle. This is part 1 of my 2 part Thailand series, following my journey on a Honda CB500X along the Mae Hong Son Loop, a popular circular motorcycle route starting from Thailand's second biggest city, Chiang Mai.
Part 2 - Chiang Rai and Golden Triangle: • Chiang Rai and Golden ...
This video is truly a labour of love (filmed, edited and produced by me) and I'm really excited to share it with you! I know it's a mammoth one in length, and for those of you who don't want to dedicate 25 full minutes to watching, I've broken the videos into chapters for you to watch the parts that interest you most:

I was in Chaing Mai for 6 mo in 2017-18. How did you manage to do the Pai Tour with a jacket on...?! It's soo freaking hot even without the jacket... Did your trip take place last winter or recently? And I also lost a 1K dollar phone. My story was a random guy actually tracked me down in Chiang Mai and said, "Is this your phone?" Thai culture is very honest and non materialistic. They are a beautiful people untainted by leftists western culture...

Hey, its the Great One here... Wow, what a trip you had! It reminds me the mainland Chinese trip we took a couple of years ago, but just a little more developed over all. I enjoyed watching the beautiful sceneries as well as the cute little people you met along the ride.., they were SO very interesting to me because they were SO none western! They were not contaminated and unspoiled :). Observations: 1.The different delicious foods you had made my month watery, in a literal sense! All of sudden I realized I had just missed a few seconds of clip because I was so busy swallowing my saliva! But I went back to it... .I didn't miss anything, no worries! 2. It seemed there were not too much meat in the dishes..., mostly are different types of vegetables..., I think I might will hungry 20 minutes later after the meal..., no wonder those cute little people were all looked fit.... . Not like us, grew up on meat and potatoes, ha, and cabbages of course! Love it! 3. How did it feel like to sleep in a mosquito net? I noticed there was one in your room above the bed. Was it hot during the night without AC? 4. Why did even bother to draw the directional dividing lines on the roads :).., geeez! It seemed they had very little regards in respect of which side of the road they ought to stay on! You gotta felt all of sudden you were snatched by the Darth Vader, along with your 500x, and dropped you off on the roads of Devonshire England somewhere... . 5. It seemed there was a thumb sized bruise on your upper left arm..., was it left behind by the Darth Vader? 6. Most of all, please forgive me to say it again, you are BEAUTIFUL!!! Just couldn't help noticing it as a red blooded man. P.S. Hey, bless me with more than just a heart emoji this time. Do you like to ride cruisers by any chance? Sorry typos: "be hungry", "of the clip", "did they even bother.."

Just watched your Northern Vietnam trip and subscribed last week and now you're uploading Northern Thailand. I'm Thai and I love motorcycles. I did some trips long time ago but never had a chance to do this Mae Hong Sorn loop. It's still in my bucket list.
