I like the atmosphere of Laos. It's not chaotic, charming, and slows down the pace of life.

[@2Passports1Dream]

So true 🤗🇱🇦 very calm and lovely!

[@cheryl62022]

The lady that does my pedicures is from Laos. She say that there is more crime in Laos then Thailand. Especially Stealing vehicles, motorcycles, break into your car and steal belongings, etc

[@arrukkikrina2755]

Don't worry too much about politics. I think politics and bad people are everywhere in the world. If we are good and take ourselves to a place where there is no risk. It was always a fun trip I'm not Laotian I understand that each person has encountered a different situation. Get to know the story differently. But the real experience is with ourselves.

[@no1dress]

Great video guys! I love your blogging style! Btw, about the name; the French didn't change it, they just spell it differently. 'Vientiane' is the French spelling to pronounce 'Vien Chan', which is how it should be said in English (if a French person says it it sounds the same). French spellings are used rather than English ones throughout Laos as it was formerly their colony and part of French Indochina. Also the country name has an 's' at the end because the first reports of the country that were sent back to France (before they colonised it) referred to it in the plural as "Les Royaumes Laos" ( The Lao Kingdoms). The 's' at the end of the name just makes it plural to 'agree' with 'Kingdoms' grammatically in French. That got mis-translated in English to keep the 's' at the end. Obviously the French don't pronounce the 's' at the end anyway, so for them that's not an issue..! I hope that makes sense...

[@marcusr9876]

Agreed. In reverse, it would be like pronouncing 'faux-pas' literally in English. This is what the whole of the western world is doing with 'Laos'

[@2Passports1Dream]

Makes a lot of sense!! Thank you

[@no1dress]

@@2Passports1Dream 'ch' in English is pronounced 'sh' in French, so to get the harder sound in French they have to spell it 'tie'.

No one has it anymore it makes you unique and an easy point out-guy with the longhair…lmao love you two! Safer travels filled with love n joy and ‘ease’!

Haha I think they were lights!! They weren’t on… but it seemed like they had a purpose haha! Thank you so much - the place I got the gasses from kindly gave me the “small” version, the ones they had everyone else trying were regular but MASSIVE! Perhaps your local optician also has some smaller frames hiding in the back? 🤗 hehhe Dylan’s got the idea in his head now… it’ll be hard to sway him otherwise!! He will just have to get a super random haircut to make him stick out even more 😂👀

I agree with your comment about the price of taking a tuk tuk, that's how I felt during my 2 month in Thailand this year. It was often worth paying a bit more for a tuk tuk versus a Bolt if I wanted the extra fun of being in a tuk tuk. And if the locals consider it expensive that's okay; for me it was worth the extra.

@@2Passports1Dream I don't know the namre or address of one particular popular Vienamese restaurant but looking at google maps I can definitely say that it was about 700 metres 1 street over from Joma Bakery (Café Nam Phou, Rue Setthathilath, Vientiane, Laos 1 ) on a street with a supermarket that sells Laos made peanut butter. If you see large fountain and Swedis bakery then you are walking in the wrong direction and you should have seen a temple as you walk from Joma but cxross to the other side of the street from the temple and head down a side sttreet and turn left!
