I was trying to get the second part of my Thailand 'Missing Link' adventure out this weekend but an opportunity to film fresh content has presented itself and I'm going to take it. I will try to get it out next weekend. In the meantime...
Due to the popularity of the previous events there's going to be another YouTube Stories event next Saturday (18th April) at O'Leary's Irish Pub on Sukhumvit, Soi 15, Bangkok.
I will be speaking as will a real good mix of other Thailand YouTubers. Starts at 7:30 pm, see you there.

I’ve been a bit quiet lately because I’ve been deep in the edit on something really special.
Back in 2018, a friend, Alan and I hiked 116km through Thailand’s “Missing Link” — one of the wildest, most remote parts of the country, still impassable to anything but dirt bikes (seasonally) and 4WD vehicles.
The hike lasted a full week through dense jungle during the rainy season, with no phone reception — and we definitely suffered along the way.
This was before my YouTube days, but we filmed clips and took photos along the route. We recently caught up and recorded a full narrative to properly tell the story — and it’s turning into something I’m really excited to share.
I’m aiming to have the first video up this Sunday (29th March). Stay tuned — this is easily one of the biggest adventures I’ve ever had in Thailand.

I am so satisfied with how this video turned out.
If you want to see the raw, untouched beauty of Northern Thailand’s remote mountains without having to trek 7km up a steep incline or feel your legs burning—this is your chance! I did the sweating so you don’t have to. 😉
Come join the adventure to Doi Jo Wa Le and help me give the YouTube algorithm a little kick by watching, liking, and saying hi in the comments!

New Post: Myself and Steven Beattie just explored one of Thailand’s most spectacular and mysterious spiritual sites — the abandoned “Valley of Heaven” in Ratchaburi, where Buddha, Christ & Hindu deities once stood side by side. What was meant to be a utopian kingdom instead became a national scandal… and then fell into ruin. Steven also gives us some insight into his own interesting history as part 1 of a series of 3 that I am calling “Walking Free with Steven Beattie””
Watch the full story — told through drone footage, history, and whispers of a dream that was too big to last: https://youtu.be/rp_yxDkTw4E?si=6WZJ-...

New Post: A deep-dive adventure into Thailand’s wild side at Khao Yai National Park where myself and Baldy Brian spent a weekend hiking 2 of Khao Yai’s best trails and attempted (not always successfully) to navigate our way around some huge spider webs! Brian also tells his story of how he managed to find his way out after getting lost in the jungle on Koh Chang’s highest mountain.

New upload. If you're looking for an active day or even weekend that's not too far from Bangkok I recommend this area which is becoming very popular with locals wishing to escape the heat and hustle of the city!

The latest episode of One Baht Wisdom is now out. We speak about drug smuggling in Thailand, a very topical subject following the recent arrest of young British man in Bangkok. We are joined by Steven Beattie, who was sentenced to 7 years in a Japanese prison and shares his direct insight into the subject with us.
