Great Video, just a heads up that one of your videos is being used by Samanvaya Luxury Resort & Spa - Sidemen KZbin channel. It is the video you guys did for them that is being reposted.

[@ShadowYuki]

Welcome to Thailand 🙏😊

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

@@kambizfahimi7756 I was wondering to what the introductory alluring video referred to.

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

@@kambizfahimi7756 Good call. I was wondering what that very alluring introductory video was really all about.

[@phaisanchankaew9635]

Welcome to Thailand ,and enjoy your trip. Thanks.

[@minnam275]

16 years ago I had money for a one way ticket and 3 months to stay in Thailand. Had never been here before, didn't know the language, culture nothing. But I learned it all. Now this is my home, I speak and write Thai fluently, I'm part of the local (Thai) community and loving my life. If I started a KZbin channel / vlog 16 years ago, oh boy what adventures world would have been able to go through together with me. I'm so glad I was courageous enough to jump into the unknown and see the "old Thailand" before internet came hare.

[@amandaburleson2035]

you should have vlogged it, you would have lots of followers by now and be rich!!

[@yoyonop]

สวัสดีครับ ^^ You're very very brave! respect.

I am Thai and you make me teary out of joy. Thailand is so fortunate to have you call us HOME❤

[@BrianBaileyedtech]

Glad to see you start the process of being a solo traveller. I did it many years ago for the first time when I moved to Japan for 6 years. It was tough sitting alone in the Toronto airport after saying good bye to friends and family after one of the best years of my life. I didn't know anyone in Japan, I had never been to Asia, I couldn't use chopsticks and I couldn't speak a word of Japanese. On the very first day of my new job as a teacher for which I had zero experience, my student's three year-old son looked at me and started crying - "it's a scary foreigner." I ended up having the time of my life in Japan. Many years later and I have been solo travelling the last 4 years straight (stranded in Malaysia during the beginning 6 months of the Pandemic - loved it!) and have now been to 106 countries on 6 continents (currently in Mendoza, Argentina, heading for Santiago, Chile tomorrow). You have nothing to fear but fear itself. Research well and the universe will take care of the rest. The world isn't dangerous - that is a media myth - the world is AWESOME, especially the people. I can say that as a fact because I have the experience everyday. You have nothing to fear but fear itself. Then everything will work out in the end - even if it doesn't. You'll see. BTW, you'll love Bangkok - one of my fav cities and I will be there in late October for a month.

[@odetterenee8724]

@BrianBaileyedtech... love everything about your comment and couldn't agree more. 😊

[@jomontanee]

That 3 years old boy….awww…. adorable.❤😂

[@minnam275]

I 100% agree with this!

[@freelancekate8919]

Thailand is one of the easiest places to travel around on your own, I wonder where Loyd went to. I hope you eat lots and lots of food

[@zenkaze5726]

Yes !!! I Love Thai food too.😋

[@wichianpatthanawech6187]

Did the same thing last month. Went to bangkok by myself, almost by an impulse. Glad i did, it's one of the best ways to grow as a person.

[@jomontanee]

Are you still in Thailand??

[@russa4246]

Hello, welcome to Khun Su Thailand, even if you come alone, please believe in our Thailand's safety and our Thailand has good laws and well-being as you have been to our country and I'm glad to see you back to our Thailand once again. Wish you happiness in our Thailand. Thank you very much for coming back again.

[@sorrasakjeam3992]

Welcome to Thailand, Thai peoples will always take care all visitors and you won’t feel to live alone, don’t trust me and prove by yourselves.

[@ks1513]

Welcome to Thailand ❤ You don’t worry to travel alone. Thai people will support you. 😊

[@Danielroams]

I love traveling solo. It gives me an amazing sense of freedom. I can do what I want when I want. Being in a foreign country means I have to rely on my own wits to figure out the restaurant menu, find a location using public transit or simply struggle with the local language and possibly make a new friendship. Embrace it! 🎉

[@johannaengman2594]

I am a solo frequent traveller. This is the first vlog that I see from you. Good for you that you are out there on your own. I agree with you that it is important to be able to do things on your own. It makes you less vulnerable and stronger. I have a few traveller tips. 1. always pack a change in your handbag and toothbrush, toothpaste and other necessary things if your luggage get lost. 2. Always have an airtag in your luggage so you can track it. 3. know your rights before if things would happen. You hare too grateful to United for doing what they are obligated to do. I also think that you might are entitled to some other compensation. I do not know the American compensation laws that well but I heard there is something similar to the EU laws.4. if you are regular/frequent flyer get a Priority card. That will give you access to lounges all over the world. Specially good with delays. You will get snacks, drinks and a seat to relax while waiting. Some also have showers.5. when bags are delayed your insurance usually cover cost up to an amount to buy clothes and amenities. The best thing with bags being delayed is that you get your luggage delivered to you hotel/AirBnB. You are doing well.

[@Connor-by1qs]

2. Is a must for many reasons. Great advise

[@jomontanee]

12:41 YOU ASKED AND YOU RECEIVED!! Best lesson ever for me too!❤❤ Thank you.👼

Wow what a journey, you poor bugger. But hey you made it and with a positive attitude so well done Mandy. Enjoy Bangkok ❤

[@KardosoMedia]

Proud of you Mandy! Thanks for sharing your solo Journey to Thailand!

[@heypippa]

Wow you were so positive throughout your journey! I would be so upset if I lost my suitcase but I'm inspired by your outlook on life. Looking forward to your Thailand vlogs. I loved all of the ones you filmed in SE Asia last year so I know these will be good. Take care 🙂

[@travellingcurlytops]

Well done Mandy on staying calm and collected. You did it!!!!

[@olivetherapies]

Wow and you all those challenges you had to cope with and you made it with such a positive attitude plus with added bonus of a lovely hotel to rest up in between. Go girl! I feel inspired to do a trip on my own too!

[@suewellings4500]

Hey Mandy, you should be so proud of yourself, travelling alone and dealing so well with the delays. We missed our connecting flight and were stuck in Toronto overnight before travelling on to Barbados last week. I was so upset but at least had my husband with me! You rock girl👍🥰 it was great to see how well the airline took care of you and good for you speaking up for yourself about getting a room. Hope you have a great week exploring Bangkok till Lloyd arrives. I have a feeling nothing will phase you now 😊Take care

[@wojongo]

Great job Mandy! You are a rockstar! Staying positive always helps when traveling. Have fun

[@lubyard6057]

I am so glad that you managed this. I too suffer from acute anxiety when I travel, especially when I am over tired. I am traveling to Singapore soon and am worried about the new personal booking in etc. I have come a long way though, 40 years ago I couldn't fly.

What a great video, almost like you have a camera crew filming, so professionally done 🧐👍

[@robyn-ys2ry]

Aw, Mandy, you did fabulous. This was such a huge step in your quest for some independence. And it was a great success! All those little speed bumps were no match for you😎 you should be proud of yourself!

[@LostVagus]

SAWASDEEKA 🙏 Welcome to Thailand! As a fellow People Pleaser, my impression when I saw your very first debacle? 🙌 You're a champ! I thought, yes, she asked politely for a solution. Good for her for asking for a hotel room. It appears you never lost it or had a crazy passenger cause problems. 🎉 Success!😂 Are you guys bringing Bear? Our dog and cat did great on the flights. Sabai sabai na kha, and congratulations on taking the travel jump on your own leg of your adventures. I'm sure you'll get lots of suggestions, but give a shout if you need pet help or anything such adjusting to BKK . :)

[@midlifetravelbug]

Good for you! It's nice to see the patience you had when things go wrong. That's travel sometimes..lol..Great video! We hope you got your bag back! Cheers Chris and Jim😃

[@marsfuture]

Hahaha. It's just so sweetly ironic how just when you're starting off on your "lone adventure organising everything by yourself", literally EVERYTHING goes wrong and is utter chaos without you even being at fault :-P It's the universe making full use of its opportunity to teaching you some extra independence lessons hehe. Equally funny how you keep telling yourself how much you're enjoying your solo trip when it's blatantly obvious you're missing Lloyd every step of the way and *not* really enjoying it hehe. Nothing wrong about enjoying each other's company, it's what we were made for :)

[@catsupattra9937]

Wow.!You did very well done, Mandy.Have a good & enjoy staying in Thailand.❤🎉🎉❤

[@patthipsingh271]

Hi Mandy. I just finished watching your video, I saw you just arrived in Bangkok. Welcome back to Bangkok, I watched a lot of your and Lloyd 's videos last time you guys were here. How long you and Lloyd are going to stay in Thailand this time, if you plan to stay longer maybe you should contact Chris Parker he is from Toronto and he has been living in Bangkok for 4-5 years and he knows a lot about Thailand' s Visa just in case you have any questions about Thailand's visa. Enjoy your visit

Go Mandy go! Thank you for your sharing your fears and showcasing your bravery and boldness. Well, u will have grown smarter and be more experienced when the next unexpected event comes around. This is indeed adventurous but frightening for you to travel alone. Well, u have overcome that! Congrats and enjoy your stay in Thailand! Bravo!

It is very normal to feel nervous at the first time to traveling alone.Welcome back to Thailand and enjoy.

This was a very good video. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it

[@laisonalbarado]

I will be doing this in the spring of 24. It is something that I have been looking forward to for a very long time. I am hoping that Thailand 🇹🇭 is everything that I have heard it was. I will not lie about being a little bit nervous. I am leaving everyone and everything that I know behind me. But it’s time. 🎊 🎉

wow, what a journey. this documentation helps a lot for travellers going similar destinations!

[@brittneygoes]

Dude, that was quite the epic travel day(s)! I would have cried a lot more than you did! hahaha. I've had a few bad travel moments, but I've been putting the work in to stay positive and focus on gratitude, like you have been. I'm in the UK, traveling alone throughout Europe doing a bunch of pet sitting, so I totally get how it feels to wander about solo. Sometimes I feel like a total bad ass and other times, I get really sad and discouraged but every day is a chance to grow and I'm stoked to see you doing the same! Love your guys' channel and look forward to getting some good tips on where to eat! I'm hoping to make my way to Thailand in November. How long will you and Lloyd be there?

[@sharonla8071]

You're tough. You're strong. I'm sure that, despite Lloyd arranging things in the past, you have picked up lots of skills that will serve you well. While it was a pain, it's probably good that everything didn't go perfectly. It's always great for our confidence to have to solve problems. I was once caught in a riptide in Hawaii. The lifeguard was standing on the beach ready to fish me out if necessary but I made it to shore alone. I was so glad he gave me the opportunity to look after myself. It was a great confidence builder. Have a wonderful time in Bangkok. I'm looking at airfare for the fall. Can't wait to return. I miss Thailand so much.

[@user-hf8yr5uj4s]
