[@stephenharris7982]

The bloke giving you negative comments mate is a a dosser let the haters hate your living the life remember that richy . I have watched you from the beginning your very inspirational especially with your budget traveling way ❤

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you mate, I always laugh to myself when the trolls comment. Sad people with sad lives unfortunately👍🏻❤️

[@Karl-dg7rm]

Great vlog rich I love this channel.......laugh hard at the troll with no life 😂😂😂 ATB FELLA 👍

[@saltaireorangebicyclechopp8555]

A cracker Richy, so much colour & greenery, must be like walking in a kaleidescope! Noticed a lot of bakeries, smart schoolkids & decent roads, what an upgrade from Karachi.😁

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Mark, it is an unbelievable upgrade mate. The sights, people, bakeries and food in general look really good👍🏻😎

[@waltereckland576]

Been curious about this place, thanks for the video. Hope you feel 100% soon🙏

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Walter, it is an amazing country mate🙏🏻👍🏻

[@jimbo1663]

Brilliant Richy, you are the Alan Wicker of the 21st Century such great viewing , stay safe Jimbo Glasgow ❤️

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Ha thank you Jimbo, that’s always great to hear mate👍🏻❤️

[@hayd9785]

Enjoying your videos, me and my mum have subscribed

[@ParkinsonRaw]

That’s great to hear, thanks to you and your mum mate.

[@JuneOyston]

Looks a nice place lots of shops and clean. The accommodation looks really good to. Followed your journey from the start, and some of the comments boil my blood. The fact they are adults and should know better they must lead very sad lives. Youve done so much and seen and experienced more in the last 12 months than they ever will jealousy thats what it is. Yes we are family and im proud of what your doing it takes a lot of guts. But i really enjoy seeing all the different places you go to i have learnt so much from watching the channel 😊

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi June, it is lovely here. The trolls🤣you know me it’s water off a ducks back and yes some people lead very sad lives getting their kicks from it. Thank you😊

[@JuneOyston]

@ParkinsonRaw I know it won't bother you thick skinned us Parkinsons 🙂

[@matthewmiles9626]

Thanks

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I can’t thank you enough Matthew, this really helps me out mate and the walking shoes search continues.

[@PATThaiA]

Well Dealt with Richy.Onward & Forward.Busy Place that Kathmandu นะ.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks, it is very busy mate, understandably being the capital but it’s not over powering in any way. For such a big City I think the population is about 1.7 million.

[@chrispy1963]

I was last in Nepal in 1987,so as you can imagine, it’s changed a bit! A great country with really genuine people(once you get outside of the touristed areas for sure) I’m surprised Richy you haven’t got any really decent silicone earplugs whenever you’re in SE Asia…I couldn’t travel with out them….keep these videos coming mate

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi mate, I can imagine it’s changed a hell of a lot. I’m really looking forward to seeing more of the country in the rural areas. I’ve never had to much trouble sleeping but that bell was a right pain. I’ll have to get some for back up, thanks

[@MSWcryptoworker]

You seem to have a “ humble walking guru” approach to life

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Yes I love walking, keeps the old heart beating.

[@MohamedAlif-ny8ds]

Keep showing us the world richy thanks

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Mohamed, I will do mate.

[@rg353]

Richy Nepali Heritage Hotel very nice accommodations Kathmandu Nepal You're on top of the world Cheers Mate

Brilliant video mate. Watch the traffic 😮. And that hotel £14.50. Sweet. Be safe matey 👍🏻👍🏻🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Jonny, it was really good there mate. You too bud👍🏻👌🏻😎

[@dune6727]

Looks like a good vibe about this place

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It is really nice Peter

[@mrgingerman6020]

Those scoungers are annoying, good vid Richy 👍

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks mate, yeah it can get frustrating because they all start with the same rubbish and you know where it’s leading 20/30 times a day.

[@PATThaiA]

Liked.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you.

[@andrewabbott2476]

Thanks!

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you so much Andrew.

[@stevebowness9435]

That second Hotel you went to Richy looked really nice for £14.50p looking forward too your time in the mountains.👍👍

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Steve, it was great at the Heritage. I can’t wait to move further into the country mate👌🏻🇳🇵

[@exoticvicroy3694]

i have known you,since I was 7Yr old, you are definitely not a person, that let things get on your nerves, forget people's negative comments mate!✌️

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Rich, yes you know me mate I pity the people that send them with sad lives trolling to get their kicks. I just laugh them off bud👌🏻💯

[@martinpowell5769]

But I suppose it comes with being a KZbinr- you have to accept the compliments along with the criticism, along as it’s constructive

[@funkbudhaagurung9649]

Welcome to Nepal n enjooooy

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you it’s great to be here mate.

[@nickgoode9733]

take no notice of the knockers mate there just jealous that your out there doing what you love and all they have is a mundane job and match of the day to look forward to on a weekend

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Nick, you know me I have thick skin I just laugh the haters off. Sad people with nothing else to do with their lives, thanks mate.

[@CtrlAltDel-m9n]

Good moanin, I thik we related. Na? Bell ringing in such manner is called Puja.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Haha thanks mate

[@glennamyhotspur]

That Heritage Hotel place looked decent, Richy. Are you going to the mountains before you move on? Nepal looks stunning!

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Glenn it was really nice there mate. Yes I’m going further into the country in tomorrow’s vlog and I’ll be here for a month. I’m in no rush it’s beautiful here.

[@glennamyhotspur]

@@ParkinsonRaw Nice one, Richy, enjoy! Not envious at all, mate! 😁

[@keithhood2515]

Hi Richie why don’t you look at overland to Darjeeling, we found this area a bit more westernised, not as much hassle and amazing scenery, loads of nice walks. Good introduction to India. We flew from Siliguri to Thailand via Kolkata after 5 weeks in India.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Keith thanks for the tip, i am thinking about India but in the back of my mind I’m also thinking Pakistan was a struggle for a couple of weeks, then before leaving I got a bacterial infection for the last two weeks. I dont know if I’m ready to jump into another Pakistan like environment like India just yet. I know what you mean it’s an easy introduction but then I’m in the lions pit when I leave. I’m not sure whether just to go with somewhere I know after here for a month or so and get myself fit and right before gambling again. Going there and getting deli belly is the last thing my body needs right now.

[@daleadelic]

@@ParkinsonRaw hi mate i lived a year in india and im from burnley lancashire (pakistan) and i can say dont miss out on india while there. its not like pakistan in most places but its also not like nepal in most places. kind of in between with the hassle. india has everything you want depending on where you go and what time of year. if you would like any advice just ask. i was also in pokhara for 4 months living. i travelled over land via bus from india to pokhara... it was absolutely unreal of an experience but maybe i would treat myself to a plane next time haha. dont go to dehli in india.. or most big northern cities it wont be your thing. i spent 8 months alone in himalayas only from nepal to pakistan. get on the ride of your life mate! much love from uk

[@martinryder6910]

The nightlife in Kathmandu would be interesting (if there is one?). What I've seen so far is fake northface jackets and overpriced bakeries. There must be a go to place for the backpackers and cheap prices

[@ParkinsonRaw]

There is nightlife here Martin but it’s mostly roof top bars and the bakery’s are by no means overpriced. This country has so much character in the people, buildings and scenery, if all you’ve seen is fake jackets I’ll be highly surprised. I am going through more of the country but as I’ve said in vlogs I’m just struggling atm with stomach problems from Pakistan and I’m on antibiotics to sort it.

[@TheWilks4825]

As soon as he latched onto you ,I just knew he was after 💵.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

At least 20 people a day mate, everybody I’ve spoken to which is a big shame.

[@tobypage2372]

An idea for you go to India abd get a train from Puri which is below Kolkata and get the Gujarat Express it takes 36 hours thru India to the opposite coast.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Something to think about, thanks Toby.

[@henrychinaski8554]

you're #1 Junkie

[@ParkinsonRaw]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Of all the comments I get that’s a special one👍🏻

[@thaibillyboy]

Hi Richy, that Nepali Heritage Hotel looks a great choice, really nice and clean. Do they chew that bettle leaf and nut there that makes all the teethe and saliva red? I was wondering if that might be why the no spitting sighn was there. When i was in Mandalay in Burma the roads and pavements where all red and pinkish with spitting that stuff. That guy trying to overcharge for the orange juice reminded me of the two prices in Thailand, tourists pay more, can't be doing with that, looks nice and quiet and chilled out there, nice vlog, thanks.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Billy, the heritage was great and cheap. I’m not sure what it is. I thought it was what they chewed and spit in Pakistan and that was like a fruit powder sachet to give them energy. Yes the age old problem of dual pricing is a pain in the arse. I keep getting messages off holiday makers who just don’t understand and go away for a month with bottomless pockets. That is where our problem comes from, thanks mate.

[@travelswithjasonf1463]

Hi just watch this and other great vlog I was listening and you said not sure if to see about visa for India or go back to Thailand. My little tip would be go into the visa place see how long or may take as looks like you are still stsying there for abit than see if they say it may take so long or maybe pop into the India embassy as you walk pass it and see (if you can go in) Both hotels look good and very good prices

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Jason, I’ve looked right into the visa’s and I know how to do it mate. The decision now is do I want to go, I’m currently watching plenty of raw vlogs on it not the ones that say everything is perfect all the time not the up’s and down’s.

[@travelswithjasonf1463]

@@ParkinsonRaw that good to hear yes best way is to watch vlogs and see how it is.

[@alansmith4387]

Hi Richy , will you be visiting the area where youngsters train to be Gurkhas?

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Alan, I haven’t seen anywhere like that but I’ll keep my eyes open mate.

[@Kubotahonda5]

There's hundreds of super expensive and super luxurious hotels, restaurants, cafes , resorts , pubs, clubs, shopping centre in Kathmandu.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I’ve no doubt there is mate but I travel on a budget and these are the places I stayed in. When I come back to Kathmandu I will be exploring more of the city.

[@KF-cx8bm]

Loving Nepal

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Me too mate, thanks

[@gyanbanks74]

You are right… he should dump the price list… and they say it’s fresh juice… you never know what do when they make juice…I have seen them adding rotten fruits that are hidden somewhere inside.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Ahh that’s sounds awful, to be honest I always like to stick my head over and watch to make sure the equipment is clean but I’ll keep my eye on the fruit too. Thanks mate

[@sharonbarrerogarcia]

Wow huge difference for only extra £4.50 a night 😍

[@ParkinsonRaw]

It was really nice Sharon🇳🇵❤️

[@NJ-vv8dl]

A mid 40 dude is student that seems legit 😅

Sams bar in thamel was the in bar wen I was there

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Matt, there seems to be bars everywhere here but I’m not much of a drinker. I have the occasional beer after a long day.

[@azchoudhury]

Ignore the negative comments from jealous people who are not as fortunate as you are to experience other countries and cultures. Peace.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Arif, I just laugh them off mate. Angry people with sad lives trolling.

[@preety8651]

If you really want to see the mountains and all then step out of that area and go to the more close to mountain area then you can see the exact Kathmandu view. Also there are hotels and hostels everywhere so that's a better option from my point of view.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I will be mate but I said in the vlog I have been having stomach issues from Pakistan and as soon as I feel I’m ok I will get about more.

[@davemassingham2096]

Hi Richie mate ten quid a night I would be well happy with that room I went there many years ago and they tried to rip tourists off then as well stupid since they don’t get any sale at all

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hey Dave, it is very cheap here mate but low season too. I think they’ve definitely adapted there thoughts, it’s ridiculous when I go places and they do that and end up earning nothing. At some point the penny had to drop ha

[@neildutton8077]

I have nice 1br condo in thailand for a tenner a night. Enjoy.

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thanks Neil, you can get really nice places for cheap here can’t you. You enjoy too mate.

"Richy"....spend some on yet teef.

Not possible after a car accident as a child mate unfortunately.

[@XPATJAK]

Thanks for sharing Richy. Ignore the sad, lonely, negative pieces of shite 😂 India may be good for views and subs mate 👍🇦🇺

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Hi Jack, the trolls I just laugh off mate🤣. I’m still doing some research on India I don’t want to be jumping into another Pakistan like place and views/subs doesn’t really sway where I go as I want to enjoy it. Thanks mate👌🏻👍🏻

[@user-andrew-Jones]

The cheapest dorm bed in Katmandu is £2. The cheapest room is £4. Your over paying.

This comment just shows how long you’ve been watching my channel Andrew. I stay wherever suits my needs on a budget, not the cheapest place possible.

[@senianns9522]

Don't stay too long in Nepal-- it is in earthquake zone! See you in Thailand mate!--Don't take notice of the detractors! They are a pain!

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I’m loving it here Seni, I’ll take the risk and see my 30 day out. The trolls I just laugh at mate, thank you.

[@matthewmiles9626]

Get yourself a pair of boots and don't be listening to tools pal

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Thank you Matthew, I can’t find any at the minute that are my size 10 or larger it’s crazy. All the Nepalese must have small feet but I’m still searching mate. The tools are funny I just laugh at there sad messages.

[@MSWcryptoworker]

Do u carry all your belongings on your back?

[@ParkinsonRaw]

Yes I travel as lightly as possible, all I need is my laptop for KZbin and a couple of change of clothes.

[@chadmartinez459]

They’re not robbing you. Westerners, on average, are MUCH wealthier. Locals are struggling to get by and they try to charge a perceived wealthy tourist an extra 50p. It’s not robbery, it’s trying to survive. When I’m on holiday I gladly pay the ‘tourist tax.’ And if I see they have kids, I give extra for desperately needed school fees. You’re obviously fine not paying extra, but don’t see it as robbery. If aliens came down and spilled gold, who wouldn’t add a bit to the standard cost?!,

[@ParkinsonRaw]

I have travelled more places in the world than I can remember Chad so please don’t lecture me on giving. Many places are much poorer than here in Nepal where tourism as you know is huge. I always shop, eat and support where the locals live and work. As far as westerners being MUCH wealthier I don’t know where your from but in the north of England I see many many people living to work and still struggle to feed, house and let alone to be able to spend time with there family. I’m sure we can both agree that’s no way to enjoy life which is so short. I’m also sure you’ll understand if I take this comment with a pinch of salt.

[@chadmartinez459]

@@ParkinsonRaw Sorry, I wasn’t trying to lecture, but rather put a more positive outlook on it and perhaps trying to take into account their perspective. You have travelled waaaay more than me!

[@daleadelic]

@@chadmartinez459 come to the north of england brother. thats not how it is. we are not wealthier it is just a different exchange rate. im from a very poor area and when i had some money i went to nepal and spent that money there in local food places. its very difficult for many northern english to afford to travel so many are on a very tight budget that is different from a normal tourist. im very poor in england but if you visit i would never dream of charging you more because im struggling in my country. it would just be taking advantage of somebodies hard savings and dreams of visiting my home. i would instead welcome you. sadly many people see a white face and think we live a dream life but its not its actually the same life of trying to survive. unless you are the 1% and they certainly arent in northern england brother haha all the best

it looks a lot cleaner than Pakistan
