Chopsticks and Trains

I am based in East Asia and have spent nearly 15 years in the region. The majority of my time was spent in China but I'm very familiar with the entire region. Traveling has brought me some of my most memorable and unique experiences and I want to share some of them with you. So hop on board and join me on this fascinating journey through the FAR EAST!

Hey guys - there's a place in India that I want to show you. It's known as a beach and party area, because it's on the western coast and has dozens of lovely beaches, but what people rarely tell you about is how it's the Las Vegas and GAMBLING hub of all of India. It was also a Portuguese colony for hundreds of years and the remnants of that can be seen in the architecture and even in the names of the locals. Check out my deep dive on the place.

Hey guys - my most recent video is a real eye-opener. All we hear about are China's railways (mainly from paid shills and random various douchebags) but during my trip to India, I learned that India is upping their game. They have an initiative called 'Make in India'.. and MAKING they are. Including this first class, cutting edge subway in Mumbai... designed, manufactured and built in-house from the ground up in India... yet we hear nothing about this and they get no shine for their efforts. Let's show India some love my friends. It's an awesome country and a future powerhouse! Link to new vid: https://youtu.be/hCYxj8r7BaU

Hey guys - just wanted to let you all know that my latest video from my India trip is LIVE! Check it out - it's an interesting one. In this video we check out one of the poorest parts of India and from there go directly to one of richest spots in India - two extremes in one video. I had a blast making it and made many unforgettable memories in the process. Hope you all enjoy it. https://youtu.be/dBbs8HLcafM

So, my Buy Me a Coffee page has been down for a LONG time now, but it is back up and running now! The short explanation is that I hadn't linked my bank account to it yet, so they made my account inactive and didn't bother to notify me about it. So, anyway... it's all taken care of now and thanks to all of you who have supported me there, or on Patreon or right here on Youtube! You guys are the best and I sincerely appreciate the kindness! buymeacoffee.com/chopsticksandtrains
