I'm a filmmaker currently based in Lombok, Indonesia
I'm a storyteller. Humans have been telling stories since the very beginning. Our ancestors used to sit around the campfires in the evening and listen to that old man sharing his tale. I'm that guy. Except, I'm not that old yet and we're no longer sat around a campfire. I'm in front of my camera and you're in front of your screen. But the love and passion for storytelling remains. I'm here to share the adventures from my travel through my films and photography - I hope you enjoy the ride!
Six years after watching this video and I’ll finally make my way to Lombok. Spending 6 days there. Thank you very much for showing me this piece of the world. ❤
I watched your videos in Nepal 🇳🇵.. man you have made your journey with heart .. you are feeling your heart and emotion.. this is what Nepal is .. spritual .. gods used to roam in these mountains.. it’s their home and then ours .. really nice videos .. ❤️from Australia and Nepal ..
That was a fantastic video! ❤️ I really admire the effort you put into it. Watching your Nepal series was like enjoying a beautifully crafted film. Huge respect to you and your friend for your dedication to finishing that trek and capturing it so perfectly. Much love from Nepal-I’m sure your channel is going to attract a huge audience. Keep up the amazing work ❤️❤️
I have really enjoyed your 'Notes from Nepal'. I was dragged around the Annapurna Circuit by my partner over 20 years ago, at that time, the road went no further than Besi Shahar! You have captured the beauty of this region so well and have put into words many of the thoughts I had doing the trek. Two decades later, we are about to return to Nepal for our 4th time - this country does that - keeps calling you back. We look forward to seeing your further adventures in Nepal.
I can’t get enough to ur videos! I was just planning to just watch the part one of Nepal journey and now I’m on the five part. Amazing adventure u guys had! What an achievement!cheers mate! From : San Diego California
You did a great job depicting what it’s like to visit, travel, and trek in Nepal. I feel like I’m there all over again. Will be recommending your videos to people that are curious about what it’s like/visiting 🙏
I have watched the whole series and absolutely loved them all, thank you. The honesty and rawness was refreshing to watch, delivered in such a way that it is both inspiring and thought provoking. I have not yet visited Nepal but it is on my list! Wishing you well. =
Hello Josh First of all thank you for visiting Nepal. Really love your style of narrating the story. It reminds me of trekking Annapurna circuit back in 2019. You could have gone to hot water spring in Jagat. 😂 Lastly Thank you man. Thank you for making my day watching your videos.
I just wanted to say thank you as I enjoyed film on the Anna Purna circuit, I will be doing the same route as you guys in October and your detailed account of the journey was very informative, interesting and to a degree intimidating, all the same thanks for a job well done.
Found your videos yesterday and have thoroughly enjoyed seeing this amazing place again through your channel…Thank you…but Wow! Things have really changed in 26 years! You encountered some luxury…. I did it at the age of 48 with a friend…no guides…it was a life changing experience. After Nepal we took buses, tuk tuks and trains to Varanassi, India staying for 6 weeks on the Ganges…the onto Calcutta by train (12 hours in the cheap seats). Finally onto Thailand as it was getting to hot in India 110*. Stayed in Thailand for another month…then back to the states…Trip of a lifetime..5 solid months. So thanks I’m flooded with wonderful memories.
I have watched a fair share of youtube videos about the ABC trek, and most of them have been more informative type videos showcasing the beauty of the trek . But what makes your videos special is the fact that you have shared with us your personal and emonational experience of the trek and not just the informative side. Due to which I feel it stands out from the hundreds of other videos on youtube about ABC trek. Wish u all the very best for your future projects. You have set the bar very high for yourself now 😁
Hahaha yes the bar is high now 😂 I definitely feel like this is my best work to date. Thanks so much for the kind words 🙏🏼 I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and happy to hear it stood out :) I was tying to make something a bit different and unique!
It’s midnight, I have to get up early to cover the little Legues World Series again early, I cannot stop watching. OMFG this is maybe one of the best docu series I’ve seriously ever seen. Period. Very been shooting professionally for 30 years and I’m in awe. Insightful commentary, exquisite cinematography, and engaging production. Fucking epic, dude…. Dave K
Wow, thank you Dave 🙏🏼 that's really high praise, I appreciate it! I put a lot of time and effort into trying to make it the best it could be, so it's nice to hear it resonated with you. I'll hopefully go back and shoot more in the future!
Great series Josh. I’ve seen dozens of videos of the ACT, but yours is the best shot and narrated I’ve seen yet. Hope you’ve got the mountain bug and decide to return to do some of the other routes in Nepal or in the Indian Himalayas like Kashmir or Ladakh. I’m from the UK, but live in Taiwan and keep going back to India, but am hopefully heading to Nepal this year. Well done! Look forward to the next one.
Cheers Leigh! That means a lot 😁🙏 I was striving hard to make something that's a little different and unique. The ACT gets a lot of coverage and rightly so. I absolutely 100% have the mountain bug...genuinely think about these places every day. It's a question of _when_ I go back, not if. Kashmir and Ladakh also look fascinating, so it can end up being quite a tricky choice 😂 Taiwan is also on the list, it looks stunning over there
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen on RU-vid and I live here. I am also in love with Nepal and India and because of you I am surely planning a trip to these beautiful places. Much love from Kenya.
Amazing! Thanks so much for the kind words 😁🙏 I'm glad you've found some inspiration to go and see these places for yourself...they are life changing experiences
Niiice! I would love to walk further all the way to Nayapul...there was a lot of breathtaking views on that side on the circuit but we didn't have the time. Thanks for taking the time to watch :)
Beautifully put. Nepal being such a small country (about the size of Tennesse) is blessed with such diverse landscapes, people and culture. Its truly a heaven on earth.
Thoroughly enjoyed your documentary series. You managed to make this very personal (Which adds much joy to this as you are clearly a very sincere and genuine person) and unique, yet still capturing the magic thriving in that area of the world. The editing and music choice is top notch. I am sure I speak for many saying we look forward to your future work and projects.
Thanks so much for this lovely comment - makes my day! Sorry it took a while to get back to you. Really appreciate you taking the time to watch the series and so glad you enjoyed it 😁🙏 it was a lot of hard work and effort to shoot and edit this, but it's all totally worth it when I see feedback like yours
Thank you 😁🙏 I wanted it to reflect the spirituality of the Himalayan region - I'm glad you felt a little bit of that. Appreciate you taking the time to watch the series :)
Wow guys. Its a really beautiful love letter to us Nepalese and our beautiful country Nepal. We hope we could serve you our best in future as well. Kudos👏👏
Haha cheers! I really wanted to try get the music right...took some time to find the songs that fit but I think it's worth the time and effort :) thank you for taking the time to watch
Ah thank you so much mate 😁🙏 I really appreciate that! This took a lot of time to film and edit but I really enjoyed it. Kathmandu is such a fascinating city
it's a good yet inspiring one...hopefully there are more places to go and to see for us, places with authenticities....^^ if you consider an input, Indonesia, Lembata could be one
