[@GamingWithRajat]

yes you should!

[@orlyanguiano1657]

Yes 🙌🏻

[@Crimsonacer92]

Go to the nearest dump and climb it. That's how bad it is now.

[@kevinjones5560]

Quite the compliment when he said when I heard you, I thought you were Nepali. People say the same thing about your Mandarin

[@sonurajbhandari3347]

For us as Nepali if you speak Nepali you are Nepali. Two big civilisations Chinese / magnolia & Indo Aryan settle here. So until you are British white we think you are Nepali if you speak Nepali. And also when we see white people we think they are British. So not to offend anyone we usually ask which country they came from. Otherwise people assume all white are British. Nepal & Britain has more than 200 years old history as allies.

[@GhastlyCretin85]

Don't climb Everest, man. It's been done thousands of times and it's turning the mountain into a garbage dump and graveyard. Check out some of the videos about this here on KZbin. It's not worth risking your life for. I'm sure you could go to Nepal and experience the mountains without doing Everest.

[@fuzz668]

Right. Lots of safer mountains. 😊

[@ce1275]

Why not just fly over Everest? Get a bird’s eye view. Hiking it is over rated

[@zorlockts5744]

@@ce1275no it’s not , vastly different experiences in actually walking through the nature by smelling it feeling it and going through it as opposed to jsut seeing it from a Birds Eye view

Dude you should become a freaking diplomat! Kudos to you my friend, you're awesome :D

[@robj2704]

if being a diplomat means getting into political debates, stay out of it. Instead, just visit casually and enjoy the food.

Perhaps becoming a Tourism and Cultural ambassador could encourage more Americans to travel abroad and learn about different places. I believe that is a major issue in America currently.

[@jakefromstatefarm8010]

Xiao, you really give people a lot of hope for the future. I was telling my grandmother about you learning Native American languages last night and she was so impressed because of the complicated structures of the code-talkers whom she’s been into recently. Keep up the great videos!

[@MrTruckerf]

The people from Nepal were amazingly friendly and kind! Wow I like those people!

He can wake up anywhere in the world and not be a stranger now

[@714milky]

I met a young Nepali man while working in the restaurant industry. One of the nicest people I've ever met!

[@MrTruckerf]

I absolutely believe you, based on this video.

[@user-ms2gi6fz7r]

Same with me! Her name was Geeta and she was the sweetest person ever. Nepalis are the best!

[@slimdaawg]

we had an indian dishwasher at 3 of the places i worked at. super nice ppl. som may have been nepali or burmesan. dunno rly. but they were all great hard working guys. sending money home every month and such.

[@star-army]

The smile on the shopkeeper's face made it all worthwhile. Giving someone a moment of joy and making them feel seen by learning about their language and culture is so rewarding. Thanks for keeping the feel good videos coming Ari. Best wishes to you and your family.

[@Biotoze]

I love when Xiao is eating spicy and the people are always concerned. It's lovely

[@BijayBaruwal-ck1tx]

Because Asian countries eat lots of spices and western food don't have much spicy...so for first timer everyone will be concerned

[@mariusmeyer3243]

I love how the guys whole vibe changed from completely baffled to seriously concerned when talking about the spice level of the food lol

[@AaronMetallion]

Nepali people are some of the sweetest people I've ever met. And not to mention, almost all of them speak Hindi (India's national language). I'm Indian, and the locals told me they're self-taught in Hindi, because they love Indian movies & songs. I'm Indian, but Nepal has a big place in my heart... the mountains, the calmness, the people, the food, and raksi bina ma marchu 😉🇳🇵❤ JAI NEPAL Also, because both of us say NAMASTE, in Sanskrit it literally translates to "I bow to you", but what it means is: "The divine in me, bows to the divine in you". It's recognizing the same soul and divinity in the person or animal you're greeting.

[@thelifewithnate]

That's awesome! Have you ever visited Nepal before? I've always wanted to go but never had the opportunity to do so.

[@justins8304]

I agree with everything that you have said except Hindi is not India’s national language

[@silverbuyer]

Aww that was so nice of your friends mom to knit your kiddo's sweaters. Everyone was so friendly. I love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing all of your adventures with us! ❤

[@martilomas3440]

You have such an amazing gift! I’ve tried learning a few phrases of Tamil to impress my local shopkeeper but the pronunciation is way off 😅

[@pratheesh2105]

Keep going! Tamil is a beautiful language and it'll be quite the achievement to say you can speak one of the oldest, if not the oldest language in the world.

[@Blend3rman]

I hope it helps to know we appreciate any effort to speak in our language!

[@MrF00sball]

You have given more motivation for me to continue learn Nepali. My partner is Nepali, and the culture is so welcoming. Unity in diversity!

[@nickwilliams3050]

Xiao is the master of rizzing up the ladies. ive never been more blown away by a youtuber man. your gift of language is unreal

[@Aqualyra]

Please listen to the Nepalis and don't climb Everest. It's become a graveyard of amateur mountain climbers. You're a gifted language communicator, not a mountaineer.

[@MrTruckerf]

I think he was surely joking.

[@jonathanaldecoa1099]

@@MrTruckerfyes I believe he was having a craic as well. My buddy Bryce took holiday in Nepal for a hiking trip in the lower mountains and even then there’s dangers and tourists having accidents.

[@sonurajbhandari3347]

I guess it's just an easy way to start a conversation. He may climb in future but I think in this context he is trying to have a conversation by saying he wants to climb.

[@-whackd]

Base camp is fine. But Id rather walk some of the famous paths along the river valleys.
