Searching for LOST TRIBES in Laos 🇱🇦 (Tourists Don’t Go Here)

Welcome to Laos 🇱🇦 I spent 2 weeks driving a motorbike from Luang Prabang to the northwestern tip of the country to find some remote Akha tribes and spend some time with them. Enjoy the journey :)

The locals were giggling because you were sitting in traffic when bikers just hit the road side and continue on, what a great adventure, man to be young again i would do the same thing your doing.

[@solwoodcroft8886]

[@teamspicerocket]

been binging your vlogs for the past couple weeks after seeing the elephant trip video which was awesome, 10/10. love your whole vibe, message, personality, these videos always put a smile on my face and inspire me. i will say i didn’t really like how you blurred the smoking in this video and im not a huge fan of having to wait a week for a part 2 after watching an hour worth of build up. maybe im nitpicking but im just letting you know my thoughts as a new subscriber. keep up the great work, im still very much looking forward to your new vids :)

[@soulofjaret]

My whole channel got demonitized, they’re coming after me for the substance use. I gotta be careful unfortunately. I appreciate the feedback tho! And the reason I split it up into two videos is because I wanted to share this journey, but the time with tribes deserves its own video. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@teamspicerocket]

@@soulofjaretthanks for the reply, sorry if i came off a bit aggressive. i assumed it was something like that for the blurring, not a huge deal and i understand you having to be careful about it. one other question i had was if you had or could make a video about how you got where you are, i’ve seen different snippets of your past from scrolling through your channel, watched the video about your steroid use, and another one of you hustling with amazon fba or something, and then another about how you grinded for years to be able to be doing what you’re doing now by doordashing and hustling to put out videos etc. it all seems very interesting and i was hoping that there was a recap type of video that tells us how you got to this point. i know thats probably hard to sum up into one video and it would be a lot of work but your story is really interesting and inspiring because i think a lot of young people like myself have dreams of doing what you’re doing, traveling around the world and experiencing as much as possible. i appreciate you taking the time to answer comments and be so active with your channel, i have no doubt about your future growth with this channel

[@SlimeTime1093]

I love this channel

[@marcusr.5504]

@7:30 it doesn’t need to build up, on the future just know it works by pressure, you needed to burp the water bottle. Meaning open the valve and tilt the entire stand the bottle is on to an angle where air can enter the bottle forcing air pressure into the bottle to push the water out of the valve. It works best to just place a towel or bowl under where the valve will lie because with the valve open you will get a little spillage but it’s what has to be done to release the pressure inside the bottle. (Unless you poke a hole in the top of the water bottle but then it can’t be transported and must be re-used.

[@nothanks5520]

Just ordered some cordyceps powder. I recently came off a long kratom binge, nothing crazy maybe 5grams a day but have developed a swallowing issue which is partly why I stopped. Miss the energy and also didn't realize how numb it was making me feel. Don't know if it was from kratom but there are multiple people that have mentioned the same thing as me. Thanks bro, love the content and message. Never change, I've been using psychedelics for healing and learning things about myself over 15 years and firmly believe it can benefit so many people. This swallowing stuff sucks, only smoothies and soup for over a month 😔but getting a test done and hopefully won't need surgery. Your vids keep me going and remind me not to lose touch with myself lol not like that, but you know what I mean.🤣

[@bent-b7791]

Coconut palms tend to grow at low altitude and in coastal areas, not in the mountains of northern Laos that’s why you struggled to find them brother

[@BigBerias]

i never was into traveling, but man. Your video's make me wanna explore and feel alive

[@soulofjaret]

Love that

[@jaycammom1]

I neeeedss those mushies!!

[@donaldperson948]

You need to always have a drinking filter straw! And some Bud to keep calm!

[@Flowernbloom1]

I really admire how you really take advantage of really living life. And exploring and traveling. You really have the best job. After I got out of the military, I should have done the same. Instead I joined the medical field, which is good , but I crave freedom. I'm most at peace when I'm in the woods hunting mushrooms, and foraging for natural medicine. I'm glad you enjoy your life while you're young. You inspire me. And fuel my desire for adventure.And ultimate freedom. Take care.

[@StuffnSuch]

About the pigs and pork. They say pigs are smart enough to know that they’re about to be slaughtered, so they try to rub up against the farmers to save themselves. I can’t eat pork in any country anymore, it’s horrible.

[@setthehookoutdoors]

I grew up on a cattle ranch. They rubbed me too but tasted great.

[@isaack5601]

The bible says not to eat pork. Lepresy and other food borne illnesses are reasons why not.
