Welcome to my channel! I'm Patrick and this is Patmax Adventures! I'm originally from California and have been living abroad since 2014. I decided to start this channel to share my experiences and passion for travel with others. My goal with this channel is to share and show as much as I can of the World. My focus will always be on the culture, food and of course the local people of everywhere I travel to!
Follow the adventure and mystery every week! Keep living every moment to the max!
Oof this really hits home coming across as ditzy in social situations and then getting anxious I am coming across the wrong way in the expat communities
Thank you for sharing this video. I feel like getting on a plane every single day and trying so hard to find ‘home’ at ‘home’ and learn how to stand still. Wishing you the best.
Thanks for sharing this... I'm moving from Brazil to Sanya in the next few days and I'm very nervous, anxious and freaking out about moving to another country, another culture etc etc One thing I can't find though is about the urban life in Sanya, I guess most people who goes there are looking for the beaches so all the videos are related to it, but I'm a more urban type of guy haha
Lol 😂😂😂 this is funny...First, there are indeed laws about gay rights but this is for political purposes... discriminations are still rampart... Second, you are white- most Filipinos has inferiority complex. They will be definitely "friendly" and selective "tolerant"- unfortunately for foreigners.
Hi Patrick, Please don't feel sorry for speaking the truth. It's common for people to run away from problems instead of dealing with issues like mental health, depression, addiction, and anxiety. However, doing the inner work is essential because external things cannot fix internal issues. No amount of traveling, relationships, money, or material possessions will solve these issues. I strongly suggest looking into psychedelic therapy (you can thank me later). Sending you love from Pakistan. Cheers
Hi Patrick! I am Paul I don't know if you will remember me but I met you on a random, mundane morning in a small guesthouse near BGC in Manila a few years back. I want you to know that some of your adventures as Patmax especially in Central Asia, helped fuel my imagination and my desire to see more of the world. Life is a continuous journey with changing phases. Sometimes, we also got dreams that we eventually outgrow too. Follow yours. You had a beautiful run and you can only be proud of how far you've come Wishing you all the best on your next life journeys! - The Wandering Kid
Patrick that was excellent. Thank you for sharing and for being so open. It sounds like you’re enjoying this stage of your life! Life’s about changing and growing and learning and experiencing. You’re very blessed to have enjoyed being a traveling RU-vidr. I’m very happy for you and wish you the best. I really appreciate knowing how you’re doing. I’ll be keeping up with you on Instagram! Much love ❤️
You cried and you made me cry 💔 sending you bear hugs. AND no goodbye…. It’s see you when I see you.💖 you are far from arrogant. You’re the most sweetest soul. They’re probably jealous of the light in you. People suck. Keep on shining ❤
Life’s in stages. I travelled from 19 to 26. Traveled through 15 different countries. Hit 26 and said…I want a home. No park benches, hostels, or couches. It’s that simple
Thank you for your honesty! Change is the only constant factor in life so please do not feel obligated to maintain who you were. Also, we all are running away from something in life, not just you. For example, surfing the web and watching RU-vid videos are activities that I do to run away from my own mind. Hope you have a great beginning to a new journey!!
Hi Pat 😘 I kid you not, I was thinking about you just recently and wondering where you are? Also how you’re doing? All of a sudden here you are 😍 It’s wonderful to see and hear from you. Nice throw back of your travels 💙 What a stunning sunset! Where was it? God bless and take care 🙏
It was off Malapascua island in the Philippines. It’s actually not a sunset, but a sunrise. Was going out for an early dive that day. Great to end the video sailing into the sunrise 😊
Nice to see you again Pat! Your Filipino fans misses you!!! Pls go back to the Philippines! things are so much different now compared when you were here during the pandemic.
Such a great channel. I discovered it when I was reading a lot about Kazakstan, and I feel your videos showed me what the country really looks like. All the best!
Thanks for sharing your story Pat. I’ll always remember when i met you in jeju. I only had a couple videos up and you inspired me push forward. That RU-vid travel life ain’t easy and your montage at the end even choked me up. I hope your future brings you more happiness and good luck.
