About Us!
If you had told me a year ago that we were going to sell all of our stuff to start backpacking the world, I would have called you a liar. Decisions like the one we made start with an inflection point. A point where you realize that life can never be the same anymore. After a challenging, and painful year in 2017, we decided we needed to go out and live the life we wanted to live, instead of watching it on someone else’s KZbin Channel. We had given everything we had, physically and emotionally, for other’s dreams and were ready to work that hard for ourselves. From rock bottom, Chase for Adventure was born.
The Chase Begins
We moved in with our parents, sold everything we own including our cars, and paid off $70,000 worth of debt. We worked 70hrs/week over the last year trying to save up $15,000 to make our dreams come true. Now, we are travel journalists who showcase the beauty in different cultures and inspire others to chase their dreams through our KZbin Channel and website Chase for Adventure. We want to show others that if they want something bad enough, they’ll figure out how to get it; show people who are struggling that they can make the light at the end of their tunnel. Chase for Adventure is more than just a travel vlog and blog; it’s the chronicles of what it’s like to have a dream and do whatever it takes to attain it.

[@TenajTino]

Hi guys, hope your friend is doing better. Love the video style, we almost took that trip to Pai but decided to go to Chiang Rai.

[@ChaseforAdventure]

He is! Thank you guys 😁 oh if your gonna miss it for Chiang Rai..that’s a good reason lol

[@goingmouch3753]

Very good VLog… Very informative love it…

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Awww thank you so much 💙☺️

[@placeforbeing]

thank you very much, very useful video, we are about to go to Pai by motorbike! :)

[@ChaseforAdventure]

How exciting!!! Safe travels!

[@TravelwithMo23]

Thanks for the effort!

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Of course friend! 😁 I love this stuff! Lol

[@Arnel_A67]

nice helpful tips 😊👍❤

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Yay! Thank you friend 😁💙

[@silviawp08]

Hey thanks! What is the day of the week or weekend that the road is more calm please? (less comercial trucks and tourists buses). Thanks!

[@ChaseforAdventure]

I would think the weekdays are the easiest! Have you made the trip out there yet?

[@art7d]

Oh Welcome back . didnt you guys go back home ? I remembered last time i comment on one of your on mango sticky rice .Btw nice to see you guys again Enjoy

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Thanks so much friend! We were home a couple months ago but happy to be back on the road! 😁

[@leok888]

Great video, thanks! As for national park prices, is pretty standard that foreigners pay more than the Thais. I just considered that the national parks are for the people of Thailand and was happy to pay a bit more to be able to experience it as well.

[@ChaseforAdventure]

That's a great perspective to have. Thank you for sharing!

[@hellome1821]

This is an interesting comment because I would imagine if Thai people come to the US or Australia or somewhere else would/should they have to pay higher prices as foreigners?

[@davidparker2173]

I wonder if there are any back road routes up there to Pai from Chiang Mai.

[@ChaseforAdventure]

You can take the long way, staying in villages and going through the Mae Hong Son Loop 😁👍🏽 I did it a couple years ago on a big bike I rented in Chiang Mai

[@SuperBashar1111]

awesome video! I'll be doing the same trip with my girlfriend in December. Was your girlfriend riding on the back of your motor bike or did you take separate bikes? I'm hoping doing the trip on one bike is possible.

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Thank you Bashar! I am so excited for you 😁 So Annette rode on the back with me! The one thing I will say is that we did get a more powerful motorbike. It was a 155cc instead of 125cc and that just made the hills a little easier

[@jerrypesan8695]

How many hours to get there from chiang mai to pai ? Thank you

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Around 3 hours :)

[@James-eo6bu]

You need to look at google maps, the end

[@BU8BAGUMP]

I call bullshit that a 125cc isn’t enough to get you to pair or anywhere around pai. I was in pai back in dencember and all my friends had newer 125s and mine had like 45000km and other than slowing down a bit on steep hills is kept up perfectly fine. Even when going up to the pai view point which was steep as fuck

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Thanks for the information friend. I’m happy you and your friends were able to have no issues. However, we happened to have a different experience...hence the story I share about pushing our friends up the hill. Thanks for watching 😁🤙🏽

[@joelaustin7352]

just need to know all police check points

[@kingchakazulu7762]

This was so hard to watch, millennials are so clueless, when he called the handlebar a steering wheel, i gave up, smh..

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Thanks for the feedback Chaka 😄 Do you motorbike a lot?

[@kingchakazulu7762]

@@ChaseforAdventure , lol, no problem bro. Yes i ride a lot, and i would suggest getting your motorcycle license so you can explore more places that would otherwise be limited by a scooter.

[@ChaseforAdventure]

That’s awesome! That’s so funny you say that because right after this trip I went straight home and got my license 😁 We ended up going to Vietnam, buying a motorcycle and doing the Ha Giang Loop. Those videos are about to come out and it was amazing! Have you been able to do any loops? 😄

[@kingchakazulu7762]

@@ChaseforAdventure, That is pretty funny bro, the last loop i did was the Mae Hong Son Loop on a dirt bike, i'll have to check out the Ha Giang Loop...

[@ChaseforAdventure]

Ahah I am so jealous! I want to do that one next year 😁 How was it? Did you need the dirt bike? Ahah you would love it! The only bad thing is how dangerously the locals drive. I’m really confident and practiced on a motorbike and that was the only thing that saved us a couple times from the locals driving 😑
