    Jason, I cannot tell you enough, just how much I have enjoyed your videos during the past few years. When I was your age, my first job was with RR (Aero Engines), so I got to visit Derby/England several times a year. Afterwards, I began my main career with American Airlines, so world travel became an obsession for me. As I've gotten older, I've followed numerous travel channels on KZread. But, without a doubt, yours stand out the best, for the variety of unusual destinations and the quality of your videos! Great work young man, and best wishes as you go forward with your life! Cheers!

    I am addicted to watching videos of people visiting Mongolia. Just amazing. I believe one of the videos showed a singing sand dune in that area. However, I've learned that it's not exactly the wind that causes the sand dunes to sing, but the avalanche process. Even if there is no wind, just creating an avalanche with your hands and feet can make it sing, but the dune has to have the right layer of sand. So it seems some locals and guides know where those dunes are in that area. Also, if it rained a couple days prior, then dunes won't make the sound because the sand has to be completely dry. Anyway, I'm really enjoying watching your videos.

    Appreciate that - the sand dune was something else. I think I only realised about halfway that it was going to be a lot tougher than I had anticipated. I didn’t bother to film myself climbing the second half (and the steepest bit). I was just so focused on making it to the top!

    Quite an interesting video and experience traveling through the Gobi desert, especially the way it looks now full of desolate sand dunes. But 80 million years ago during the dinosaur era, this region was apparently a completely different climate that was warm and humid, with expansive valleys, freshwater lakes, and conifer forests. It's just mind boggling to think about that span of time and how different the earth once was. Look forward to the rest of your unique travels in Mongolia.

As long as you are not Ross Geller you wouldn't give a damn shit about dinosaurs 😂😂😂 Just for information: Welsh guy called Ash Dykes did cross it on foot, polling his cart with supplies. You were there, you have seen it with your eyes, and imagine to cross it on foot. That guy is incredibly!

    If you travel to the Mongolian countryside, try to choose better transportation. It would make your trip better, cause those old Russian cars are not very comfy but a lot of travel agencies still use them. Because there are so many beautiful places to see there but the car ride takes a quite long time to see them.

    Let’s reflect on this for a moment, these travelers are blessed to crossed the desert 🐪 for adventure, they have a place to stay, fresh cooked food etc are people admired them and called them risk takers. In the meantime hundreds of people with their families are crossing the Sonora desert between the united states and Mexico with only what they can carry in their backpacks many many dying in the process, looking for a better life in the other side, but they are referred to as invaders, unwanted etc. Think twice and think deep before you judged someone who is trying to find a better place for their children.
