Living the eat-pray-love dream, in a first-person-perspective.
I am currently living the eat, pray, love dream, and I would like to invite you to join me (virtually) in my travels around the world.
My videos are shot in the first-person-perspective - walking, taking a train, riding a bus, floating on a boat, eating street food etc. It is as if you are there besides me.
My videos also do not have any narration. If you would like to visit these places in a relaxed mood, then I would like to welcome you to take a walk, take a ride, or take a bite with me.

Can you give a price list?
Thank you for the question, Pet Fish Sri Lanka. I think you can find the menu and price list from the restaurant’s website: www.rayarestaurant.net/menu
do you need a professionals youtube thumbnails designers?
Hi zk6rz, Thank you for your suggestion. I appreciate your comment, but I currently handle my thumbnails myself as part of my creative process. I'll keep your idea in mind for the future.
You walked through CANTON! Ask any local and they will tell you it is only the incoming hipsters who call it Pontcanna
Thank you for the clarification, DaiSmile. Canton is indeed beautiful; Pontcanna is also deservingly gorgeous. This neighborhood is wonderful regardless.
Great video
Thank you for your feedback, Paul. Much appreciated.
THAT GUY I CRAZY! Bearnaise on flæskesteg!
Thanks for your comment, Carsten. Indeed I wholeheartedly agree that Mr Lee’s roast pork sandwich is THE BEST!!!
Thanks for the good review.
You are very welcome, Komami! I hope you enjoy Bali too!
Beautiful Copenhagen. Thanks for sharing your walk. Like 1, new sub🙏❤️
Dear GuideBookTraveller, thank you for your compliments. I hope you will enjoy Denmark too.
I would love to visit Copenhagen one day!
Hello Chef, thank you for your comment. I hope you will get to visit Copenhagen soon!
Awesome
Thank you for your compliment, Jason. Much appreciated.
Shittiest food ever, just recently visited Malaysia and was in Penang for 2 days. I am North Indian and went for this place as google shows this as best reviewed Indian restaurant. Came to know they bought those reviews. Had Dal Makhni and Butter Chicken with Garlic Naan and everything was shit. Ordered Mango lassi as well which was made using artificial flavour not a real fucking mango. I think Michelin people haven't got good taste buds because this place isn't worthy of one. The reviews gave me hope of decent enough food but shit this is place is far from even decent food
Definitely more expensive than when I was at uni there 🤣 But they've clearly invested the money well. Excellent video - thanks for taking the time to share!
Thank you for your comment, Kat. I am glad that this video brought back pleasant memories for you.
Thanks for the video. Given fewer budget and resources, Kaohsiung is making much more progress than Taipei
Thank you SY, for the comment. Indeed I wholeheartedly agree - Kaohsiung, bursts with energy, blending modernity with rich culture. Its vibrant night markets, lush parks, and scenic Love River make it a lively hub. With its bustling harbor, stunning skyscrapers, and welcoming locals, Kaohsiung is a city of endless charm and excitement.
That's a very well laid out restaurant. The noodles look so silky smooth too.
Yah, WanderEats, the noodles were very aroy-mak! The soup was very umami from the pork broth!
I was here around the same time last year in July 2023 too. Absolutely fantastic coffee.
Thank you for your comment, Joy! Yea, Bangkok can be hot and muggy in summer but thank goodness… there are so many of such awesome food and beverages to enjoy! Hope you get to experience the wonders of Thailand’s capital again soon!
Thank you for the vid. Planning to go next month and order exactly what you got.
Thank you for your message, Annie. I hope you will enjoy Hanoi in summer. It can get warm, so drink plenty of water to keep hydrated. Let me know what you think of the sticky-rice dish, after you have tried it!
wow.. that's quite the opposite side of the country from Taipei.. lol! Lovely place nonetheless.
Thank you for the observation, WanderEats. Indeed, Kaohsiung is Taiwan's vibrant port city. I liked that it offers a blend of tradition and innovation. The residents here seem more chill than Taipei’s folks.
ooo... I saw the DJI Pocket 3.. niceee. Love love love that camera. The hotel is awesome btw.. great value too.
Thank you for your feedback, WanderEats. Yes, I would highly recommend Zela Design hotel, if you are ever headed to Kaohsiung. I am still using DJI Pocket 2, despite is being a little rosak - it tilts 2-3 degrees to the left on Follow Mode (really annoying!).
@@vonmeetsworld do consider upgrading. Best decision I made in regards to my camera gear EVER! I had the Pocket 1, Pocket 2 and now Pocket 3.
@WanderEats thank you for the advice. I’ll look out for sales for the DJI Pocket 3.
What are the timings for return trip?
Thank you for the question, Tem. You can find the details from the transport company’s Facebook page: facebook.com/share/JtgBdiSFVexnJkAb/?mibextid=WC7FNe
@@vonmeetsworld by the any chance would you know about any transportation from Mae Kampong to Lampang?
@TemProduction, I don’t know if there are any public buses that go directly from Mae Kampong village to Lampang city. You may need to make your way to the nearest town closest to Mae Kampong village (eg Chiang Mai), to get on a public bus to Lampang. Alternatively, you can check with Green Bus, the company that operates long distance buses in Northern Thailand.
@@vonmeetsworld thank you so much for answering my queries :))
@TemProduction your questions are welcomed. I hope you have a fruitful trip to Northern Thailand!
Wow I was in Hanoi since last week and just left. Your video appeared in my feed and too bad I got to know about this one. I really thought Hanoi has no gay life.
Thank you for your comment, Sofhi. I hope you get to enjoy Gay Hanoi Tour’s services next time, cheers!
We had their Miang Ta Yoi salad😭♥️ changed my world. I havent stopped thinking about it
Thank you for the update and suggestion, Ann! I would like to try the salad when I go back to Phuket again!
Very different to our oyster omelette here in Malaysia (especially Penang where I am more accustomed to) but sure does look fresh and yummy
Thank you for your comment, WanderEats. Indeed the Taiwanese oyster omelette is different from the SE Asian versions. The Anping oysters are very fresh because it is directly hauled from the farm (or sea) in front of the store!
Finally get to hear you speak.. lol! This is such a unique meal, I wonder if they are sold in SG or MY... hmmm
Haha, thank you for your comment, WanderEats. So far, I haven’t come across milkfish-skin soup being sold in SouthEast Asia. I will let you know if I do!
btw on Google Map, it shows that the shop is 'Temporary Closed'.. yikes
Sad to hear that they are temporarily closed. I hope you will get to try the beef soup soon!
@@vonmeetsworld perhaps and hopefully they are moving to a new larger location :)
@WanderEats, sometimes the shop will close for family matters. Locals will just call the shop to check if they are not sure if they are opened or not.
Truly appreciate the dedication they put into their dishes. Btw is the instruction to best consume the meal in English as well?
Hi WanderEats, no I didn’t see any instructions written in English.
@@vonmeetsworld awww.. too bad indeed
Hi there, 1 room for 2pax is that oke? or just for one person?
Thank you for your question, Adit. I stayed as a solo and already I felt the space was rather snug. If you are a couple with big suitcases or bags each, I think that this room may be a bit of a squeeze for you.
Great video! Tks for sharing!
Thank you very much for your feedback, as well as giving us such great music, OB-LIX!
Throughout the video, one thing stood out to me clearly and that is your perfect choice of background music especially at the very beginning. It really set the tone and vibe of the city.
Thank you very much for your kind compliments, WanderEats. I hope you will get to visit Tainan city one day soon. Cheers!
Velly flowery propensity to collude good taste with chakap saja, will certainly try when the times come.
Thank you for your comment, Varvoom. I hope you can get to try Auntie Gaik Lean’s food soon, they are really yummy!
'promosm' ☺️
Thank you for your comment, Nicholas.
Seriously.. what a GEM of a place you found. Can't recall from the video if you mentioned the price per night though did you?
Hi WanderEats, thank you for the question. I paid TWD2,580 per night. I think it is worth it, for the warm hospitality by Mdm Mei Jen and her daughter, Pam. I also liked that the location is conveniently located to F&B places (Mei Jen will recommend the good food there), bus station, and convenience stores. If you are headed to Sun Moon Lake, you can consider this BnB.
@@vonmeetsworld yeah I saw there's a 7-Eleven just opposite as well.
@@WanderEats yes indeed, the 7-eleven stores in Taiwan are pretty awesome! I hope you win the Lucky Draw at the airport - can get free EasyCards to spend on transport and convenience stores!
@@vonmeetsworld yeah I need to remember to do that at the airport.. lol
@@WanderEats it will be worth it, when you win the TWD5,000 easy card. As I observed the long queue of tourists claiming their prizes, the probability of wining seems to be pretty high, the variance is in the quantum of prize money. There are many different prizes, the highest being the TWD5,000 easy card.
whoa.. that dish looks too rich even for me.. lol
Thank you for the comment, WanderEats. It was a small plate, so I didn’t feel too “gelak”. I think some of the Khao Kah Mu I had tried in Thailand are fattier than this.
Heading to Taipei myself end of May and for sure I've bookmarked this place... thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the comment, WanderEats. I hope you will enjoy Taiwan - too much good food, not enough time, IMO.
omg.. what is your secret to be able to travel so much? Please do share.. lol
Hi WanderEats, there is no secret really - I stopped working and I do a lot of research about each destination, so that I can complete each trip within budget.
@@vonmeetsworld amazing.. .hope long it may continue and keep churning out these great videos!
@WanderEats thank you very much for your encouragement. I look forward to your videos too.
I think the best time to ride this is the Autumn. The colours are fantastic.
Thank you very much for your suggestion, Raggy! I appreciate it. I hope to come back to Aberystwyth in Autumn to see the Vale of Rheidol again!
Man.. I love how springy those noodles look, must have been a divine to eat. Haven't tried this place before but definitely bookmarking it.
Thank you very much for the comments, WanderEats. I found out about this stall through a Thai KZreadr. Not many tourists know about Guay Tiew Zaew. IMO, I found Zaew's noodles better tasting than the popular Michelin-awarded Rung Rueang Pork Noodles across the road. Hope you will get to try Zaew's Tom Yum Noodles soon, cheers!
Wow.. what a location which explains the price. Still all things considered, its great value indeed.
Thanks for the observation, WanderEats.!Yah, the location of S Box Sukhumvit was really optimal. But I still liked Bangkok Chinatown area the best - Walking distance to so many good food there!
@@vonmeetsworld yeah I stayed in Chinatown the last Dec trip (haven't finish editing all the videos yet.. lol). It's definitely convenient there but can be chaotic as well especially over the weekend but it sure is convenient with transport and getting around plus a lot of food.
@WanderEats, I agree - most of Bangkok is chaotic during weekends due to the influx of tourists and day-trippers; the weekdays are when the ‘soul’ of Thai culture and cuisine emerges and the city becomes more pleasant…
What an epic roadtrip inded. Did you stay overnight at Lampang or Phayao at all?
Hi WanderEats, thank you for the question. Yes, before Nan, I stayed for a few days in Lampang and Phayao each. These 3 are all very lovely cities in Northern Thailand and worth a visit if you are going to Chiangmai.
What a gem of a place once again.. wow! Hard to imagine an authentic Nordic restaurant outside of Bangkok or the popular cities in Thailand.
Thank you very much for your feedback, WanderEats. Yah, I enjoyed Nan Steakhouse and the food was very affordable. I don’t think I can get Swedish meatballs for this price in Stockholm!
@@vonmeetsworld hahaha.. you can say that again!
btw, are you already back in Malaysia while publishing this videos?
@@WanderEats yes, I have already left Northern Thailand by now.
Never been to this area of Thailand before. Thanks for introducing Nan man!
Yes WanderEats, Nan in Northern Thailand is really deep in culture and history. I was recommended to explore Nan when I met a Thai middle aged couple during my central Thailand backpacking trip last year in July 2023. I am glad you like the Nan series!
LOVE FROM BALI,INDONESIA 🇮🇩🙏♥️
Thank you Ms Michelle!
The Chapter was the first to put on a play of Ingmar Bergmans 'The Seventh Seal' back in 2009.
Thank you very much for the information, Anne!
oh my god.. what a great minimalist and gorgeous cafe with a view. Btw which camera and video editing software are you using may I ask?
Hi WanderEats, thanks for your feedback. Yes, Phayao is off the beaten track in Northern Thailand but worth a detour. I use two cameras - DJI Pocket 2 and Sony ZV-1. Nowadays, I am relying more on the Sony ZV 1 as my DJI has started to tilt due to “motor issues”. For video editing, I just use the Apple’s free software, iMovie.
@@vonmeetsworld awesome.. I upgraded from Pocket 2 to Pocket 3 and am loving it especially with the product focus feature which is similar to ZV-1 which I owned previously too. I wanted to travel light and have good audio so I am now settled on my Action 4 + Pocket 3 combo.
@WanderEats , that sounds wonderful! I think I’ll retire my Pocket 2 when the tilt angle becomes worse. I don’t think I’ll upgrade to Pocket 3 as I am not sure if the tilt problem may come back again in Pocket 3. I may just depend on Sony ZV-1, for the time being.
this series on Lampang is super as usual. will visit in April!!
That is fantastic, ChiangmaiChiangmai! I hope you will enjoy Lampang! I am now in Taiwan and enjoying your beautiful country tremendously!
@@vonmeetsworldVon, how many days you plan to stay here in Taipei?
@@chiangmaichiangmai1856 I have left Taipei already. Now I am at Sun Moon Lake and going to do the anti clockwise round island loop and end at Kenting. Can I repeat again that your country is so BEAUTIFUL…omg!
@@vonmeetsworld glad you are enjoying your stay here... will you get back to Taipei? may be we can meet...
@@chiangmaichiangmai1856 hey ChiangmaiChiangmai, I will be flying back from Kaohsiung. Let’s try next year, when I plan to do the eastern loop of Taiwan!
Hi Von, this place sure looks great!
Hello ChiangmaiChiangmai, long time no hear from you! Hope all is well! Yes, Lampang is worth a visit if you are going back to Northern Thailand soon.
Interesting dishes, recommended
Thank you for your comment, Des Chan.
Useful video. Was looking 4 this hotel info n its price. Tksss a lot
You are most welcome, Farah. Hope you enjoy staying at Jati Cottage. If it is fully booked, you can also consider their sister hotel, Jati Home Stay: kzread.info/dash/bejne/emmAwZR8pMzRg5c.htmlsi=u79RSt_WQaq-fZeX
@@vonmeetsworld I liked the outside area of the hotel, but I didn't like the bathroom in particular. Anyway... I really appreciate your willingness to help 🙏🙏🙏
@@BeingFarah587 you are welcome. Enjoy Ubud!
Watching this in Dubai is really killing me.. lol! Thanks for sharing the location map btw... bookmarked!
Looking forward to seeing your Dubai posts, WanderEats! I hope you get to try Khao Soi Lam Duan Fa Ham soon!
Why never talk about the chili!
Hello A. Tan, thank you for the question. I didn’t try the chili as I prefer to tease out the original nuances, whenever I try a dish for the first time. I’ll pair the noodles with the chili the next time I patronize Sin Kiew Yee Shin Kee. Thank you again for your suggestion.
Title Text Here. :) (Good video though.)
Noted with thanks, Rabascan! Thank you for pointing out and I hope you will get to enjoy the Lala Noodles when you are in KL. Cheers!
