Who could ever get tired of seeing the Himalayas? I know I don't! And the villages, temples, the people of India--add to the charm. It's unique, like no place on Earth. Gabe, you could go 100 times and it would never be boring. It's so colorful and alive--always interesting!

I know what you mean about India, I've been 10 times to India. It certainly gets in your soul. You also get a lot more bang for your buck in India in every possible way. India definitely feels like a second home to me.

Bhagsu has a special place in my heart. I spent 2 1/2 months there in 1996 & then came back the next year for 3 1/2 months. It's the only time in my travels when I stayed in one place so long I got to see the changing of the season. I was 26/27 and my whole life was focused on travel. Have so many nice memories of my time there. Met so many lovely people, it was just before the Internet so people seemed to talk more, socialise more. It's crazy seeing Bhagsu now. I guess I sound old, but there were only a couple of shops in Bhagsu then, if you wanted shops, banks, restaurants, you had to walk to McleodGanj which I did every few days. It was a very special time in my life, I was never so free in my life as when I was there. So many days and evenings sitting around with people from all around the world, singing, playing guitar, smoking and laughing.

Damn you're making me feel nostalgic about something I haven't actually experienced!

Which ever country he may be traveling, Mr Grabriel always has time and generosity for road side singers. They are invariably awesome musicians

You mentioned that some viewers would not be excited that you are back in India, but I am thrilled as I am fascinated by the history and the culture. I also love the fact that you are so knowledgeable about the country and really enjoy your running commentary as you explore all the incredible locations that India has to offer and also give us glimpses into your past adventures. Really looking forward to what I hope are many, many videos!

Hi Gabriel, I just want to say that I will NEVER get tired of seeing more of India. I agree with you that it is the most interesting, fascinating exciting place in the world. How could anyone get tired of seeing more of this beautiful, unusual country? I'm so happy you are back in the Himalayas and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you're going to take that bus journey you mentioned. Thank you a million times for bringing this most mystical, spiritual country to us. And I'm SO HAPPY you're having such beautiful weather. So excited for what's to come. Thank you for bringing what I think is the most beautiful place in the world to us. Loving every minute of this journey. Stay safe. And warm.

Really looking forward to you doing the trek again, hope the skies are clear and the views are amazing 👍

parts of Kashmir and Ladakh illegally occupied by Pakistan. most youtubers visit Pakistan go to gilgit baltistan which is India's land illegally occupied by Pakistan and say this is Pakistan. the same People come to India and straight away go to most awful old delhi which is full of illegal immigrants that most Indians do not go to and say this is India. you are one of the few youtubers who show India in positive way 👍

“The Himalayas are calling.” ~ Beautiful and Magical. ❤️

This video is absolutely enchanting! Your deep connection to this place beautifully reflects your sincere love for its beauty. You wholeheartedly resonate with the soul of India. 🏞️❤️🇮🇳

Brother, Gabriel , you are travelling a lot and true a explorer. I do watch your video. Stay safe and healthy. God bless be always with you.

was there in 95/96.. a magical time.. a pilgrimmage back is needed! thanks Gabe

Gabriel said it in one sentence “there is no where like India”, I agree I’ve visited 6 times for a month or so each time, always new places and it’s fabulous.

So glad you are back in India and that too in my home province. It's almost therapeutic for me to watch it while being away from home in Canada .I was hooked to your last series and looked forward to new episodes. You have traveled more India than most Indians and a traveller that is open to diverse experiences. Wishing you blissful and safe travels in the Himalayas.

This was such a nostalgic moment for me, i visited this region in the winter of 2017, and it was just gorgeous. watching this vlog brings back so many memories.

Such a pleasure to see you in northern India again 😎 was there 22 yrs ago in 2001 & have fond memories of the place 🤓 love this part of India & I can see you are enjoying yourself immensely 👍🏻 have an amazing time Gabe , safe travels dude ✌🏼

Love this small town of Himalaya.

I'll be visiting India for the first time ever in a month from now... thanks for the appetizer, brother. 🙏🕉

It delights me that you are so delighted to be there. I'm imagining that the general vibe is as cool as any individual element you experience there. I'm just a little jealous. I'm not in the least bit disappointed that you're back in India.

"going back home as you know what to expect"... yet always surprised with what you get! 👍

McLeod Ganj, I visited this place almost 2 years ago and the song he is singing is from my State Rajasthan. I heard it after so long. Thank you Gab for these memories. I am feeling Nostalgic. You are a gem. 😊

Himalayas are calling...this is a very deep gabe..I have been following you for almost 7-8 years...and now I understand a lit bit of your mindset .....welcome back home man...

Gabriel, when you are in the south please visit Kodaikanal and take us around my old convent boarding school - Presentation Convent. Now closed but the buildings are still there. The road up the hill is hair raising with hairpin bends and steep drops.

Love these Himalaya videos. Please visit everywhere there!

So relaxing, India is Gabriel,s heart.❤ So looking forward to this adventure.😊

You're great filmer, Mr Gabriel, and a great walker. Covering lots of places. I like the presentation with maps. Thank you for the pictures.

Another wonderful video produced & shared by Gabriel Traveler & how fortunate you are, to have had the blessed opportunity to visit India so many times! So many wonderful years, visits & memories to cherish forever. I've travelled the world far & wide, on/off since I was young & I have to say, that this global region is absolutely stunning & IMPO, is the world's most scenically stunning, colourful & exciting region, hands down! The mountains, many of the worlds highest, are so majestic & so incredible to see & the 1st time I saw the Himalayas in person, it left me absolutely speechless & the entire image is eternally etched within my memory. I absolutely love India & the entire Himalayan region, especially this region & I don't know, who could ever tire of such a gorgeous & special part of this world. The natural scenery & of course the wonderfully friendly, hospitable, gentle, beautiful & special peoples of this global region, are what really makes it so very unique, special & memorable. Seeing the way of life here did something to me. It changed the way I saw myself & it changed my life's outlook & the way I saw the world & the people in it. Each visit to this region is precious, special & always leaves imprints within my mind & heart. This video brought back special memories of my time there & reminded me, that I've visited since I was a child & I'm now in my 40s & I sometimes think to myself, gosh, where did the many years go?! This is really enjoyable viewing, that I've watched it numerous times already. Thanks for sharing such beauty with the world & here's wishing you Gabriel, many more years of enjoyable travels. Peace✌

11:28 on the right there is a pool where you can swim for free 🙂

Not long finished part I then surprise, part II showed up haha. Watched both back to back. Gorgeous scenery on the hike to the waterfall. I really hope you get to do your journey from Menali to Leh. So far the weather is looking good there, so hopefully it will be on your side when the time comes. It will be wonderful to capture on camera. Take care and cheers! 🍷❤️

I have started following you mainly because the India and Nepal travels. I love to travel there too. Keep on going there and recording them.

Just loving this visit already, just great that you're back in India !🙏

Wonderfully done! Love the music! 😊

Excited that you returned to India.

The domestic tourism in McLeod has grown exponentially since my last visit in 2008!! All those huge hotels at the base of Bahgsu were not there. Literally there was one medium sized hotel back then! I was there for Dhiwali and it was nuts!! Happy Travels

yes...youre back!

Never tired of the Himalayas and you portrayed it so well. Love your vlogs Gabriel

Hello! I first started watching your videos before I went to Nepal and then to Tibet. I stayed at the Zen Bed and Breakfast. The people and place are amazing. I really enjoyed the videos of Georgia made me want to go. The funny thing is this place is my next travel stop. Hopefully in the spring.

Apparently they've built a tunnel through the mountain so it's probably less terrifying and also less epic.

But I still plan to go to Manali, so I'll investigate once I get there.

Hi Gabriel, beautiful location walking around these incredible sites is a much better experience than visiting the major cities less crowded and congested with fresh air and beautiful cafes I could imagine the summer months are extremely crowded, but it is understandable many people want to escape the cities and the heat. I'm sure your major reasoning for heading to India is the cost you can travel around, and experience India and the cost is minor in comparison to visiting many other countries. The food wasn't a traditional meal but more of a Western-style meal with dream catches located around the location interesting place to listen to music and enjoy a meal.

its even crowded in the most remote places!
