[@eileengale7661]

You just genuinely really enjoy yourself. Laughing to yourself and finding joy everywhere. *while he pets, appreciates and has random conversations with table kitties. Lol 😸 It’s a real pleasure to watch. ☺️ Thanks.☀️🌈🌴

[@jiraratboonwej2816]

[@simonecasey633]

The water is so beautiful. Defs a chill place. The cat sleeping on the jewellery! ❤😂

[@richarddawkins4607]

he/she is the boss

[@debbiemartin4111]

Wow wow wow and aww the cats talking to you :)

[@SideTripLife]

the cat was saying: 1) leave me alone 2) damn youtubers lol

[@Malin031]

Beautiful snorkeling, wow, the water and so cozy beaches !

[@David-le7jy]

really liking the Gili part of the Indo trip. So nice to not have scooters everywhere

[@SideTripLife]

No motorbikes, no cars, love that

[@dorkstain5455]

First viatwd GT in 79 - there was only one place to stay which was a family home of some mung bean farmers. The snokeling was amazing right off the beach. We got there via motorised prahau.

[@truesouth4784]

Being an Aussie and living in Darwin, I spent many a long weekend on the Gilis. Gili Air is my favourite as it is a balance between the overcrowded touristy Gili T and the local village vibe of Meno.

[@roberth7894]

The water in the Gili's looks amazing. These islands do seem overrun by younger tourists, I wonder how long they can sustain w/o damaging the environment?

[@iDrive123]

It is really only Gili T. Meno and Air are extremely quiet. But yes, there is a huge problem with rubbish.

[@sabinahasanah3671]

Thanks

[@kellyeggers8015]

So far the BEST island in Indonesia!

[@SideTripLife]

lovely but the BEST is coming.... stay tuned

[@Anthony-qn8ox]

On Gili Air I rented a snorkel and mask on the beach and walked out into the water and less than 100 meters from the shore the snorkeling was amazing. Actually better than a tour boat I took the previous day.

[@SideTripLife]

Agreed Anthony, did that too but was also nice to get out on the boat and have a nose around the isles

[@nickm9922]

This is true on 99% of those dive-locations in the world. All boats go to same places, all anchor there and the movement of people itself doesn't help locally. But often its done as law by gouverment to actually protect the reefs; i.e. condition of the permit says to only to these "known" places. Some are natural reefs with a given name (Meno Wall) others are literally manmade, some beautifull (BioRock project/artificial new reef) and some overrated (the statues) But yeah often best things to see are when solo snorkling on the unknown locations. During 1 solo snorkling trip i literally saw 90% of the "rare" things i saw during the 10+ divingtrips i did around there, including many macro stuff like sexy shrimp and urangutangcrabs.

[@park-ev8vr]

I really like your video 💖💖

[@SideTripLife]

Thank you very much :)

[@rolandet]

Great vid once again. Looking very much forward to your visit to Lombok. I loved my (in hindsight way too short) stay.

[@SideTripLife]

Lombok is an absolute gem for sure! (next vid)

[@penukulbesi4006]

One of the best places in the world

[@NickyDunn]

Hiya. STL. Gorgeous views while having your breakfast. A nice touch from the place you are staying. What a great trip. Love watching your adventures. Always good vibes. Beautiful places. The mode of transport is great for the environment. Great video. Thank you for sharing. Look forward to the next one. Have a great week.

[@SideTripLife]

Cheers Nicky! Ypu and Buddy have a great week too (will check your channel for updates :) STL

[@Malin031]

[@SideTripLife]

[@hendrikdevries9725]

Loving the trips ! Am on Gili T in June, and in Canggu, Kuta and Nusa Dua

[@jodytoupin1225]

Absolutely gorgeous! Definitely on my bucket list. Thanks for the videos!

[@GottoLoveThailand]

Great video I enjoyed watching it hope you’re well stay safe

[@SideTripLife]

Thanks kindly Dave. Btw, anyone looking in, have a look at GottoLoveThailand channel for Thailand & SE Asia updates and friendly banter

[@Paddy_Trotter]

Absolutely amazing island & snorkelling tour! Thank u for the vid 😍

[@SideTripLife]

Cheers Paddy

[@shesfatale]

Another great vid. Pretty cool place.

[@lombokpropertyinvestmentlo7324]

Depending on how long you are in Lombok you should definitely try and get down to Sekotong and visit the islands of Gili Nanggu and Hili Sudat. Nanggu has amazing snorkelling. A nice place to stay in Sekotong is Krisna Bungalows

[@SideTripLife]

Thanks for the reccys, looks fantastic, absolutely love Lombok

[@sabinahasanah3671]

Gili Asahan, gili kondo and gili kapal

[@raptorsfanjourney19]

Another great video!! I missed that island when i went in 2019. Im going back in 2023 May and will visit. :)

[@SideTripLife]

Thanks Adam. Would also HIGHLY recommend Lombok (will see next vid)

[@didar122]

Johnny is so cute

[@justthefactsjack456]

Love the island hopping! Great stuff as usual. Keep them coming STL! Thanks:)

[@SideTripLife]

Cheers JTFJ

[@Malin031]

10:01 - Awww

[@SideTripLife]

guard cat ;)

[@antruok4950]

Luv it mate 👌 that’s the Bali I would like to experience - super chill - no cars - sand , sun 🍻😄🙏👍 Thanks Boss

[@SideTripLife]

Thanks Ant. Upcoming, Lombok much chiller and even more amazing beaches :)

[@thatcrazyuncle9195]

As always a great video! Most definitely giving me ideas for planning after my Koh Samui trip.

[@SideTripLife]

Chers TCU. Gilis are lovely but Lombok is even better & coming up...

[@robertsz2199]

Great video

[@JorgenD-original]

Very nice

[@seasidekreations-australia]

I love the Gili Islands, have stayed on Gili T and Gili Air and love both. Not stayed on or visited Gili Meno yet, maybe next trip as well as Lombok. Thye lazy cat guarding the merchandise made me lmao and so did the women that think their butts look good in bum floss bikinis lol

[@SideTripLife]

Any trend started by the Kardashians is prob best avoided lol. Guys never had it so good, we don't have to shave any more and women are flaunting their butts. But for me, I prefer a clean shave and clean bikinis (not wedged up the.butt ones;)

[@buchaerudin6832]

Fokus cat spike 😂😂😂

[@sabinahasanah3671]

💗💗💗

[@lorraine725]

have to stop watching your videos it’s been back to back videos for days now haha. great content

[@SideTripLife]

Thanks! But as your mother probably once said, 'stop watching that thing and go outside and play' lol

[@lorraine725]

@@SideTripLife you are correct haha

[@park-ev8vr]

😍😍😍

[@jaaadeee938]

Nice

[@paulmurphy5204]

your vidios are great, do u use wise card n do u trust room safes.

[@SideTripLife]

Thx Paul. Just signed up with Wise so we'll see. Rarely use room safes and have never had anything nicked. Do I trust them? Sure, as much as one can, as always use best judgement.

[@claudedealgerobelia4505]

💖💖💖

[@aussieinthailand]

The information you provide is very helpful for trip planning. I will be going to Bali and Gili T sometime this year. Was the snorkeling gear provided by the boat tour operator as part of the trip?

[@kedaikopiomdnxkopi2169]

try visit pirates island

[@petermathieson5692]

The sights are lovely... but the heavy preponderance of tourists is - to me - a turn-off. I had the same reaction when I visited Koh Phi Phi a few years back. Arrived by boat mid-morning. Took a tour, then walked around: young tourists everywhere (mostly young and progressively more drunk or stoned as the day wore on). Very few locals in evidence, except as servers. There seemed to be very little that was Thai about the place. Was glad to leave on the first ferry the next day.

[@SideTripLife]

Lombok was bliss after Gili T and Bali

[@fjdkfdfjdf33]

I thought THIS was the west coast of BC.

[@SideTripLife]

Rip tide reminded me a bit of Race Rocks on the way back lol

[@paulcasey5204]

Is there anywhere on the beach that does not have amplified music? No cars is great but still nowhere thats quiet.

[@SideTripLife]

Yes, the other 90% of the islands

[@ardianandi1100]

Apakah anda sudah ke raja ampat?

[@SideTripLife]

Belum! But I WILL get there!

[@2000uds]

Hi, friend. What camera filmed this video

[@SideTripLife]

Under water Go2. For the rest, this is my main camera: kzbin.info/www/bejne/paqcoGNsedeEa9E

[@carolann19651]

How many people are considered a group?

[@SideTripLife]

Not sure but they try to get a min/max for each boat to make it viable. If you google Gilis 3 island tour there's many options and prices. Enjoy!

[@gastonnicolas2087]

is it normal that there is not so many people going there?

[@SideTripLife]

If you look at my first night out on Gili T, you will see many people: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHfYk2qtfJqseM0

[@kenrbp6347]

Ini videonya di ambil kapan?

[@SideTripLife]

menggunakan terjemahan: kira-kira 3 minggu yang lalu

[@fitriani1027]

Hancurkan gili2 lombok

[@FINEURBANART]

Animal cruelty. Those poor creatures have to carry fat tourists in this heat.

[@SideTripLife]

Sadly some of the ponies look worn out. This is how it's been done for generations (transport of goods, etc in horse drawn carts) and of late, tourists. However, electric bikes and shuttles are gaining momentum.

[@eatmesunday8051]

Unfortunately just another place ruined by tourism

[@ArifurRahman11]

Really wonderful

[@SideTripLife]

It really is
