PAI IS A BACKPACKER'S PARADISE (Mae Hong Son Day 3)

[@ehmmmjay9907]

The musician playing in the middle of the market was so good! You can really hear where the band Khuruanbin got their influences from.

[@turtle6701]

The thai beat with the slow motion of people walking through the market is a awesome feeling!!! 🥃🍻

[@jomontanee]

Love it too. 🥰

[@catkucing3468]

And then once in a while u hear a motorbike buzzing thru 👍👍👍

[@OnePackWanderers]

The guy playing the music was very talented! 🙂

[@jomontanee]

9:41 The doggie and the food stall = cuteness overload. ❤️💕 12:17 And then he ran free!!!!! Go doggie go! 🎉

[@siradasuwanraksa6701]

สวัสดีค่ะคุณโจ สบายดีนะคะ

[@OnePackWanderers]

He got really excited and started running around 😂😍

[@ed7872]

Yep, Pai grows on you. It's like a kind of Hotel California. You can check out any time you like..., but you will keep coming back. At least I will. So funny you went to the hot spring, but you should have stayed (soaked?) a liitle longer. Walking street looks so quiet. The vendors seem to be out in force again, but very few people compared to pre-covid. Anyway, not your problem. Enjoy you stay and the rest of your trip on this fabulous loop. And keep up the good, no great, work making these vids. You're brightening up my and many other peoples days, everyday you post. 🥺😻😻🤟👍🍓🍓🍓🥢🛵.

[@OnePackWanderers]

That’s exactly what we said to each other! Like Hotel California. It would be so easy to move there and bam, 20 years would go by. Thank you for the kind words! It really helps keep us motivated in a huge way 😊

[@kenjikanasawa6347]

BUN Mee is Vietnamese food, influenced by French colony...make a sandwich using "baguette bread".

[@OnePackWanderers]

Indeed you are right 🙂 It is very tasty 😋

[@สหายแทนไท-ฅ4ท]

Life can be difficult But thank you for coming to use it in Thailand.

[@Mabinogion]

I lived in Pai for six years and managed a resort there. The hot springs you visited were called the 'secret hot springs' for over ten years, but of course are not secret any more. The steep hill you rode down was, until recently, a gravel track and quite dangerous. The springs are , as you said, only luke warm. If you want 'hot' springs, you have to visit the Pai hot springs. They are so hot that a whole village takes their water from them. Stay safe and keep up the great videos!

[@tons.303]

Yes, at Pai hot springs, you can even boil eggs in a couple of pools. The pools where people go in are quite hot too.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you for all the information. I think we would’ve walked down that hill if it were still gravel. Living in Pai must’ve been quite an experience. It seems like the type of place where it would be easy to let time get away from you.

[@mrraiarj]

12:00 , the music was so stunning , wow .

[@OnePackWanderers]

The guy playing that instrument was very talented 🙂

[@saddsas3163]

Thanks .....happy

[@kburke5564]

Thanks again for another great video. I can't get enough of you guys, you do such a great job with your videos. Love the food,can't thank you enough for sharing, looking forward to your next video. 😀 Take care.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank YOU for always being so kind and supportive 😊

[@TheVid1000]

Just a suggestion to help with the luggage on the scooter. I have a Honda PCX 150 similar to what you are using, and I carry stuff (supermarket shopping) in a tote bag, with one handle over the left mirror, and the other the right. The bag then rides between my two knees and legs. Hope this helps.

[@OnePackWanderers]

This is REALLY helpful, thank you! We are going to try this today 😊

[@TheVid1000]

Cool! Let me know how it goes! Good luck!👍

[@wheitmann]

Great video, and congrats on reaching 10K subs, guys! Well deserved, you always have a positive vibe!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you! I'm glad you think so 😊

[@SarisaT]

I miss Paiiii

[@drewcorry5056]

Great That You Stayed In Pai Longer. Could Not Believe How Steep Those Hills Were. I Could Tell Tia Was Not Happy Coming Back With Her Frown Face & The Reason Was No Smoothie. Dog Was Waiting For A Treat. The Sweet Roti Looks To Die For. YUM YUM In My Stomach. I Could Hear The Crunch In The Banh Mi. You Could See The Lanterns Walking To This Night Market. Really Liked This 1. Excellent All Around.

[@berschte]

There are hot springs between chiang mai and chiang rai in which you could boil eggs 🥚…

[@OnePackWanderers]

Haha we just might have to go find them! 🙂

[@LarsWagner]

soo cool guys !! we had not enough time in Chiang Mai for a daytrip there and we were also lil bit afraid by the streets to get there, heard many things about the way up 😅

[@OnePackWanderers]

I think you definitely have to feel comfortable on a motorbike to enjoy it. The drive up isn’t too bad but it would be really stressful if you don’t really enjoy the motorbikes to begin with 😬

[@LarsWagner]

@@OnePackWanderers oh yeahhh, both of us have a weak stomach.. 😅😅

[@sompoat2504]

On your way baxk to Mae Taeng Chiang Mai, there's a big hot spring called Pong Dued Par Pae. Pretty hot there.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you for the tip! 😊

[@RanaVlogsMalaysia]

very informative video

[@jeffone]

Great videos. We are enjoying your travels. Love all the times Tia says “mmhmm”. 😄

[@OnePackWanderers]

Hahaha we’ve found that we both tend to have different ‘catchphrases’ sometimes and we have to make an effort to not say them all the time 😂

[@jeffone]

@@OnePackWanderers We love the videos.... and we enjoy the catch phrases. Keep going!!! :)

[@dougmaclean9752]

I found that spicy food works better in hot climates - regular food just seems bland when it's hot out . you guys should be trying some local fruit - it's great ! and the Thai pineapple is the best there is

[@OnePackWanderers]

You know, you’re right. We haven’t really tried much fruit besides mango and of course smoothies. Will definitely check out some Thai pineapple!

[@kayflip2233]

Congrats on 10k. 100k will be here soon. Keep pumping out the content.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thanks a lot!!! We are happy enough to even hit 10k 😊

[@TheVid1000]

Also, a suggestion for when you get back to Chiang Mai - Thai cooking lessons! Asia Scenic Thai Cooking School has half day (in centre) or full day classes (at their farm). Really, really good! And you get to eat what you make!!

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you for recommending a specific place! We’ve briefly looked at cooking lessons but we didn’t know which one to go with, and they can be kind of pricey! 😅

[@TheVid1000]

👍👍😁

[@colleen4062]

You two are so cute. Thank you for another great video XO.👍🙏💕

[@markrees18]

Hi Guys, unfortunate that the Hot Springs didn't turn out to be as good as anticipated. I forget which one I went to now but I know that I was advised to go early morning to really benefit from the heat versus morning temperature. The market seems to be picking up regards tourists and once again you have giving me cause to travel. Great Video - still no Durian ❤️😭🤗

[@OnePackWanderers]

Ah no worries, not everything can go perfectly all the time 🙂 Good point on going early in the morning, I’m sure that would make all the difference. We’ve since learned that durian is out of season, and to not expect to find good durian until April or May 😱

[@petervanderworp]

You guys are the most NSYNC KZbinrs I've ever seen . Very smooth and professional... probably spend too much time around each other.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Traveling full-time together, we do see each other quite a lot. Perhaps you are right 😂🤣

[@RangsantBandhukul]

Congratulations to 10K subs from Rayong.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you!!! 😊

It will probably (hopefully?) never be like this again.

We stumbled across one of your Thailand videos and are now binge watching :-) Thank you for the uploads. You guys look like such a wonderfully, happy couple and the fact that you get each other’s little jokes is so nice too see. Pai is a wonderful place and my wife and I had the biggest chuckle when you checked into the same hotel ( second one ) we stayed at. Great location. Keep up the nice work.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Thank you! 😊 Were you two in Pai recently? You are right it’s a wonderful place, and that hotel is really nice too!

[@padgaprao2617]

@@OnePackWanderers last time we were in Thailand was 2020 and only just got back into Sydney before the border closures. We need to get back there very soon to catch up with family (Lopburi). You need to check out that city and what it is famous for:-)

Hey you're still watching! Haven't seen your name in a while, hope all is well! 😊😄

[@heatheroverton855]

I meant to stay in Pai for 1 week and stayed for 3 months :) good find! ❤️

[@OnePackWanderers]

You ended up staying in Thailand for around a year, right? I can see why! It’s incredible here.

[@MillaExplores]

I'm so impressed with the quality of your videos, iPhones really are quite awesome! 😄 All the food looks so good. I did a Thai inspired red curry today here at home in Finland, and it was really good but it just made me miss the Thai street food more 😂

[@OnePackWanderers]

The iPhones definitely save our butts sometimes 😂 Red curry is always good! Did you ever do a cooking class while in Thailand? We were talking about maybe doing one but we weren’t sure.

[@MillaExplores]

@@OnePackWanderers No I didn't but I wish I did! So I do recommend you do one, I've heard that there are some good ones in Chiang Mai 😊

[@otto3768]

Thanks for another lovely video. Do you use your iPhone for under water scene?

[@OnePackWanderers]

Glad you liked it! 🙂 Yep we use our iPhones for everything.

[@songwutsummerlin]

Hey guys, I wrote a comment on your trip back to chiang Mai vdo and somehow it was deleted!! Weird…😩 I don’t know all the rules regarding KZbin’s dos and don’ts. What I wrote was that I suggested for you guys to make a stop at Phitsanulok (my home city) if you take the train. It would be nice to see your perspective of the place…🤗

[@OnePackWanderers]

The KZbin rules are really strange, our comments occasionally get deleted too 😬 We would very much enjoy visiting the area north of BKK and south of Chiang Mai. There seems to be a lot there that we haven't seen!

[@Neednoy2]

Pai isn't a HIDDEN gem anymore. Almost every foreign visitor goes to Pai after Chiang Mai.

[@OnePackWanderers]

You are right. After spending a few days there, we saw many more travelers than we initially thought. It did seem like a different crowd from what we saw in Chiang Mai though. Younger backpackers as opposed to 30s-50s remote workers.

[@TarTw45]

The way you two describe food can easily makes viewer drool. Now I'm not sure I'm subbed to travel or food vlogger hahahaha

Chev's face when Tia said she will no longer be a wimp when it comes to spicy food 🤣🤣 Mala (the red chili paste) is from a Chinese dish. It is extremely hot even for Thais. So Tia, you tried one of the most spicy types of food in Thailand 😁😁

[@OnePackWanderers]

You just made Tia really happy and really proud of herself 😊😂

[@kamolhengkiatisak1527]

It is really back to the future. When I was there on 7-day bicycle trip with my younger friend 20 years ago, the Walking Street looked very similar as Pai was beginning to be well-known among western backpackers. When I was there alone on 7-day bicycle loop trip Chiang Mai, Pai, Maenghongson and back to Chiang Mai 5 years later (15 years ago), Pai was very popular and the Walking Street was jampacked with both Thai and western tourists, about 10 times more people than now. In December this year, I plan to do the same bicycle round trip (7-10 days alone) to celebrate my 70 years young. Wish the best for me as I am no longer as young as I was 15, 20 years ago.

[@OnePackWanderers]

Best of luck to you! Doing that at any age is a feat. I am interested to know what Pai will look like this December.

Please check Thai BBQ buffet (หมูกระทะ). It’s available in every towns of Thailand. The price should be around 250 Baht.
