Hi everyone! I just started my adventure here in Vietnam, and I couldn’t be more excited to explore this beautiful country! It’s my first time visiting*, and already, I’m in awe of the vibrant culture, the bustling cities, and the delicious food (I can’t stop eating pho and banh mi!). I’ve started my trip in Ho Chi Minh City], and I’m looking forward to traveling around. My goal is to visit some iconic places like any road. Can’t wait to share more stories and photos as I go. Vietnam already feels like an adventure of a lifetime! WATER + MOTO = NO VIDEO PS:Don't tell me again that I come and make posts like a fish just to bring views to my channel, because I swear I won't post again

Is this camera good, or would it be better to get three cheaper cameras for that $600?

So, could you please clarify if it’s allowed to post in just one section and, ideally, within the same topic and page each time, without creating multiple topics regularly?

I don't know how to reply to a specific post, so I just place my response wherever I find space. Someone else might think like me; I posted a YouTube video here on the forum, which some may see as inappropriate because I want to bring views from this platform and make money using people's time. However, maybe I misunderstood the situation.

I want to clarify my intentions here. While I may not have chosen the best section for this post, I believe sharing my journey can add value to others who share the same passion for adventure. I know posting YouTube videos on forums isn’t always encouraged, but if the content aligns with the forum's niche, I think it can contribute positively to the community. As a travel YouTuber, there are substantial costs involved in making a successful adventure. Currently, my channel covers only a coffee or 10 liters of petrol, while the expenses add up quickly—motorcycle rentals can cost around $800, fuel is $500, flights are $700, and there are also accommodation and food costs. I hope this helps provide a realistic view of what goes into making YouTube content. Bringing views from forums and social media to my channel is part of my marketing approach, but I aim to do so respectfully and without spamming. Making money from YouTube wasn’t my primary goal, but if it works, why not? Many companies today openly ask for tips, so why shouldn’t a YouTuber consider it as well?

Accidents happen in extremely crowded places where there isn’t much speed, so there are rarely strong collisions. Otherwise, everyone knows how to sync with each other, even schoolchildren from first grade to adults, all riding smaller or bigger motorcycles. In this video, that was my conclusion back then. Out of boredom, I realized that people really know how to ride motorcycles. ___>>

In Vietnam, the insurance is on the motorcycle. But that doesn’t mean the motorcycle is covered or repaired if you break it, if someone hits you, or if someone steals it from you. It’s just a basic insurance so the police see that the motorcycle is insured. If you crash into someone, I assure you that you probably won’t catch anyone. If you wreck the bike, you’ll likely have to repair it, or at least you won’t see your $1,000 deposit again. That’s how things are. I’ve crashed too, and in 10 seconds, I didn’t see anyone around. The language barrier makes things hard, and in most cases, it’s normal—very normal—to crash or fall down, and for both you and the bike, it’s quite common. It happens every day, and I’ve seen quite a few cases like this. But that doesn’t mean anyone will stop to call the police or investigate. Everyone gets up and continues on their way. That’s how it is. No one is bothered by falls and scratches. If it leads to hospitalization, then your private insurance kicks in to cover your medical costs, and that’s about it.

So many people hate me, but that doesn’t mean anyone can do things better than me—or better than you! We just have to understand how this world works. The world doesn’t work like me and my friends want, and it definitely doesn’t work like we want. It’s all one big math problem, and some people just talk math but never actually do the math. Simple as that!

During December, I’ll be riding through Vietnam, bringing more of my adventures to life. After riding across Europe when I was 20, now at 33, I’m taking on a bigger and better journey. I’ve ridden all over India and Vietnam, yet I still choose Vietnam again for its perfect weather, great road conditions, and affordable adventure. Plus, I found the motorcycle I love there. After living 10 years in the UK, it’s time to show more of what Asia has to offer. If you’re excited to follow a “crazy” guy who’s explored the world, come along with me on this ride! Whatever your dreams are, don’t give up. Follow me on this incredible journey! Welcome to Youtube Travel Matees!
