This Place is Like Another World | Ladakh, India

[@michellesteinbeiss-bryan7366]

This Himalayan series has been truly epic! Your last two videos were the icing on the Himalayan Cake. With all sincerity, thank you once again for braving the elements to make this amazing adventure possible. An adventure that most of us can only dream about, but through your hard work and videos, can experience the closest thing to it.

[@DaltonMirklestein]

Epic 🤦

[@tomdurover]

I was in india earlier this year and everyone told me to go to Ladakh because of its beauty. I will definitely go next time.

[@chrisbrown8748]

One of these freaking days I’m going to make it to India and when I do I will have downloaded it every video Gabe’s ever made there while on the long flight over.

[@arbhowmik]

Totally different experience, your content starts from where other travelers end. That's why we get more glimpses of history.

[@nicolashuljich2]

Hi Gabriel, receive a big and warm hug from Puerto Rico. I enjoy your Indian series so much! Thank you for your honest and humble work!

[@JSdottir]

It’s gonna be so nice for you to move to more heat at this stage. I remember my first trip to India, staying in the mountains of Rajasthan in December, how those electric blankets saved my life. I had woken up the night before (with no extra heating in the room) with literal brain freeze because I had washed my hair before going to bed. I have never done that again and do not recommend it. I have now learned much more by experience how to be comfortable in the cold and warmth in India. Going again in January to tropical Tamil Nadu, India ..can’t wait to get out of the cold in the northern hemisphere. Thank you for the epic Himalaya series 🙏🏻

[@danielawillbold880]

Best description of the south ever❤

[@Back2BaseX]

I've fallen in love with Leh through your recent videos. Seems like such a cool and different part of India. The Hemis Monestery was amazing to see. It's must feel really strange and special exploring all these incredible locations with absolutely no one around. Epic was an appropriate word for the sights and and experiences you've shared in these videos. I can only imagine what life is like there, year round. I'm looking forward to seeing Rajasthan. As always, thanks for sharing these spectacular adventures with us all.

[@SCHOOLOFLIGHT]

Mate this is surreal! I have locked in a trip to Delhi in March. 10th anniversary of my first. You have reinvigorated the desire to explore India more. Thank you for the travels mate. As a creator of content you have also reminded me that the best content is often made with the most basic gear. It floors me that all of your work is made with the camera you do. Amazing! Thanks so much. 🙏

[@matgranger5061]

Hello Indian here!! I would suggest you to avoid going to Delhi. Better visit Kerala, Goa, Ladakh, Shimla, Gangtok, etc.

[@CelticMickWalks]

He was my inspiration

[@gokulrnair3360]

I'd suggest you to avoid delhi. Explore rajasthan, ladakh, kerala and travel less of cities to discover the real india.

I was there this September. People call Kashmir beautiful, but for me, Ladakh is the most beautiful place in India You missed the Pangong Tso and Tso Moriri lakes. You better return 10 years from now and visit them.

Gabe and everyone hello. The ruins of that castle or fortress are amazing. My kind of stuff like when I explored some of the ruins in Mexico. The view is phenomenal. Good job buddy! 😎👍

​@@leemagrish3432 firstly the best is a post in Government, which has good pays and less work and a retirement income, 2nd Ly most of the boys join the army, 3rd is Toursim, adventure or monastery tours or just to get relief from the heat of Delhi,Mumbai like areas!! Tourism is the main source of income, roughly 70%!! One in every family is directly in it!! Me 2!! I'm in the motorbike rental business.

[@magooi5536]

Possibly my best trip in India. We spent a month up there and loved EVERY minute. It’s like no where else in India❤

[@NoFeeArea]

Technology is amazing. Twenty years ago you would probably not have been able to double check that elevation in the pass for weeks. It's amazing the access we now have to resources via the Internet. It seems you are still in the upper elevation. You are breathing heavier. Or could it be respiratory? Take care of yourself Gabe and stay well.

[@martin96991]

It's one of the highest places in the world that's why he's breathing heavily.

@@martin96991 Indeed. I am also worried about the cold he said he had. Need to keep Gabe in our lives making excellent videos.

@@vsr3777 I am a map enthusiast since my youth. Something about studying a hard copy and dreaming about how to get to those exotic destinations and what they must be like (dreaming and anticipation). Technology almost takes the dream out but is useful in its own measure at the same time.

[@NoFeeArea]

@@martin96991 My wife and I have followed Gabe for almost 10 years. We have a vested interest in his health. She corresponds with him occasional through Instagram and the good man has even sent her postcards. I have provided input at various times but under different accounts like playing progressive music while he is in transit. He is a great producer and we feel he is a friend. So we worry for his well-being. He is like a cat!! I told him once he reminded me of a modern day John Muir. He remembers.

Hi Gabriel, you're going out with a bang from Leh, just an incredible trip, and the weather has been particularly good, given the circumstances. You get a chance to thoroughly see an incredible part of the world just before any major snowstorms. Rajasthan is going the epic known for its incredible hill forts and palaces looking forward to the next days.

Beautiful footages of the region Gabriel. Like the other footages of the region. I hope one day when you go to Greece again you will do justice to it's heavy mountain regions, instead of 99% islands as you have so far been doing. I mean the regions of Epirus, Tymfi mountain, Aoos gorge, Vikos gorge,Tzoumerka mountains, Agrafa mountains, Pindus mountains, Evrytania, Acheloos valley, Mount Olympus, Rhodope, Mount Parnassos, Giona and Vardousia, and so on and so on, as quick rapid fire examples. If you go in March-April, you won't be dissappointed, it's truly breathtaking over there and will give you an insight of Greece's 80% mountains as well

The statue at about 25:08 might be the great Buddhist meditation master Padmasambhava. Known as Guru Rinpoche to the Tibetans he was extremely important in the initial transmission of Vajrayana Buddhism to Tibet. He was hugely influential throughout the whole Himalayan region and there are many colossal statues that depict him , especially in Bhutan.
