Hi folks, NatNomad here. An ex-Buddhist monk from Laos with a big dream of seeing the world. Throughout my time for over 10 years being a monk I kept asking myself this one question "What life is like out there beyond the monastery?" And because of this question alone made me take a big step in 2014 when I finally say goodbye to my wonderful monastic life.
And now I'm doing what I've always wanted to do. Though I am not quite sure if I can say that I'm living my dream but you know what I'm loving my new adventure.
Please make sure to stick with me so we can explore new exotic places together.
Let the adventures begin!
Thanks so much for your support.

🙏 ສະບາຍດີ! Well, I recently had my motorcycle trip from Cambodia-Lao. It is a wonderful experience. I had visited Pakse, Paksong, Salavan, Sovannakhet, Vientiane, Vang vieng, & Luang Prabang. I missed out one place from my list, Phonsovan; hopefully going back one day.

@natnomad 2 месяца назад

Wow, what a dream. I've always wanted to do that, my last attempt failed when I reached Muang La haha. I'll try again when the weather gets cooler. You're so brave.

@manobchao7809 2 месяца назад

@@natnomad Yeah, the hot weather was terrible; and also it was bad timing because it was burning season as you mentioned in your videos. Anyway, I thought that I just took the opportunity of Sangkran holiday to see your country, Lao. You’ve got great contents. You can do it! 👏

Pakse is by far my third favorite is in Laos. I didn't like it when I first came. Then, after spending more and more time, I fell in love with it. Chill and laid back vibe

Another great video! We haven't been to Pakse in several years. It was 44 degrees! So hot! Take care and stay safe from the intense heat. All the best to you!

@natnomad 2 месяца назад

Thank you. Yes, the heat was unbearable. The early evening walk along the Mekong river was nice with the breeze. What a lovely. I'm so glad to see it again after the Covid.

Now that Gordon Ramsay has crowned Laos the nr 1 culinary destination you should do a pure Food tour. Every local specialty covered :D. Apparently Vietnam was no2 so you can do some detours there.

@natnomad 2 месяца назад

Thank you for your compliment. Big smile here🙂. Back in the day when I was a monk, i was very lucky because this guy from the USA came to my temple in Luang Prabang and he set up free English class where i studied with him for 8 months. That's where i picked my accent🙂 Thanks for following my adventure. I hope you are enjoying it🙏

I thought you are Asian Australian 😅 Never knew you are Laotian. Anyway, I think Laos is one of the last Asian frontier like Bhutan, Nepal or Uzbekistan. It seems so mystery and full of surprise.

Hi ..Currently At Savannakhet… wanting to go Pakse tomorrow . In the video.u took mini van. Where did u take? How’s the frequency? I was at the bus terminal and it stated 7 am and17.30pm. But I have heard horrible story of taking bus.

@natnomad Месяц назад

I took at the same bus station where I arrived. I can't remember how often but I believe it's every hour. Please have a look at the video in Pakse, I explained about it at the beginning of the video

@vincelow2972 Месяц назад

@@natnomad Thank you brother. Yesterday when I arrived at Savan bus terminal from Thakhet (by mini van) I asked and was told only bus at 7am n 17.30pm. I just came to the same bus terminal n I saw the counter for mini van to Pakse… as in your video . 8am first van . Kop hai mak nong. May you be happy and healthy .

@vincelow2972 Месяц назад

Oh btw. for those who watched the video n read this… I was at bus terminal before 7am . Bought the 8am van ticket . Went for breakfast n reached the terminal 7.40am. the van was about to leave and was already full. The driver told me to take the next one which is 8.45am So do reach the terminal much earlier.

@natnomad Месяц назад

Oh that's kind of stressful. Hope you'll get on the next bus ok. Thanks for sharing your experience

@vincelow2972 Месяц назад

@@natnomad they put me on the next bus 9.45am. However it left at 9.15 when it was almost full So people … do reach the terminal early.
