  • @Crumble839
    Really respect how honest you keep it with these videos, no fake positivity about something just giving us the true and natural response. Too often it feels like some travel vloggers just say everything is amazing. Really looking forward to the next video, that sneak peak of the food looked incredible!
  • @acsa94
    the license guy concerned about vloggers driving without licenses then we get kids driving kids, small trucks driving into the opposite side of the road..lol love it
  • @rolm5163
    I'm really impressed how confident you were dealing with the attacking license guy. I'm not sure if I would have done it that well...love the longer vids
  • Cat Ba Island has it busy part Paddy, you missed the beautiful national park on the island. There’s a lot more to Catba than that busy resorts. You are so right about the vibe, just move on to greener fields! I was kinda thinking your sounded a bit tired in the last video. Break time, go see the girlfriend. Great video! Looking forward to more with you and Gary!
  • @MB-fv9jg
    Love your authenticity and honesty… being the real deal is so refreshing than the other vloggers who make out everything is so fantastic and amazing everywhere they go! Be kind to yourself and take time out and rest when you need too! I really enjoy your videos!
  • @akrapol
    I love your energy in this new season. It’s great when you’re just being honest when you don’t really enjoy something.
  • @Jacquiebakes
    Thanks Paddy for keeping it real! I find a lot of travel YouTubers always make out that a destination/place is amazing or that there are having the best time. Can’t wait for the next episode :)
  • @smoothriderr
    I go to Catba everytime I go to Hanoi and Phu quoc when I am in Hcmc. Never miss this 2 places
  • @jeff01ca
    I think the local was trying to say that you need a motorbike license because most tourist believe a valid drivers license is accepted. You can drive a car with a regular license but you can’t ride a motorbike unless you have the proper license from your home country. You didn’t specify which one you had, but it’s a very common misconception tourist have. You also need an international drivers license stating you can drive a motorbike, it’s usually a paper.
  • @chautiendung
    I’m just love the way u incorporated drone view into ur log. It’s give me an appreciation to the entire scenery. Thanks mate. 👍🤪
  • Hey Paddy, unbelievable your footage and your experience in Cat Ba. I am a world traveler and Cat Ba has been one of my favorite places. I was planning to go next week again, but after seeing your vdo, I will make sure I am not there in the weekend. When I was there just before covid 2.5 years ago , I had a very relaxing time. I found it a very laid back town and it was 10 times cheaper and same beautiful as halong bay. I made a two night luxurious cruise in Halong bay, which was nice but expensive. In cat Ba I took two days on a row the same trip on a luxurious boat incl. biking Kayaking etc for only 25 US $( INCL LUNCH AND DRINKS). It was the best excursion deal I ever had. In the evening I had the greatest and most friendly service and good food in one of the boulevard restaurants. I was totally 100% happy in Cat Ba. Its for sure that you choose a long holiday weekend and Yes then every nice city can become a night-mare. Try a fishing village like Bangsaray/Pattaya were I live in Thailand on a holiday weekend when bangkok people escape.. Same story, a beautiful tranquil village becomes like a hell-hole. Anyway just my two cents on Cat Ba. I enjoy your travel vlogs very much and follow you. However I feel a little sorry that you did not experience Cat Ba as I did. You have to understand that if there are school holidays or long weekend people escape the city for some happy times. best rgds Hans Jungle Moon Homestay Bangsaray Thailand. I hope you stay with us one time ( complimentary) as I like to meet you, I like you and I would love to give something back because you gave me hours of pleasure with your greatest travelvlog, but you were totally wrong on Cat Ba and your vlog on Cat Ba was totally wrong, people of cat Ba deserves better !! Its was of the most beautiful areas in the world its me saying that having experienced expedition cruises in Antartica, Galapagos Islands and most other corners in the world, like Bhutan, Tibet etc etc. Cat Ba is beautiful !!!!
  • @dresdenfae
    I felt the same way about Cat Ba, we had an afternoon and evening there and left first thing the next morning. There are much better places to spend your time in.
  • Really love your Vietnam series! so beautifully shot and realistic about travelling
  • @timdo8520
    I truly enjoy and appreciate your efforts on the beautiful video, your take on life’s points of view and living the moments is absolutely honest, well tuned! Keep on vloging!
  • A movie feel 'back in time' with this episode. Thanks for taking us along.
  • I enjoyed my stay in Cat Ba November 2017. It was low season and I stayed in a very good hotel at a low price (200,000 dong). There were some good walks, good restaurants and a relatively inexpensive cruise in Hailong Bay.
  • @dpkrist8047
    Terrific honest video Paddy, some hard work is a reality amongst all the great stuff. Keep it up, im loving these and sending as inspiration to a friend who ill do similar with.
  • I just want to say thanks for another wonderful trip. Really satisfying and enjoyable!
  • @AuntyJack123
    That was a great video Paddy thank you. I really appreciate how calmly you conduct yourself when things go awry, although I think perhaps you're turbulent on the inside. Particularly you handled the motorbike license 'police' very well. Agree that not every day and every place is a winner!
