This is the best video dale ever made imo, the bike pov makes you feel like you are in adventure with dale. The interaction with local, the bike travel, nature sightseeing, I wish Dale return making this kind of video again.
I love how coconut man was so nice and friendly he was really trying to interact with dale. If I ever get the change to come Indonesia i will surely visit his shop and have some coconut water i will tell him that he is so sweet🥰
Everyone he meets is so nice! The love you take is equal to the love you make Dale! Can't believe I've just spent 3 hours watching you explore Indonesia - living vicariously from the Highlands! You're a good ambassador for Scotlandia. I'm proud of you! Must visit this beautiful country - hard to believe it has a population of around 250million.
most people are nice, its the 0.3% of people that will steal and murder you without hesitation, but you do not meet these people very frequently, thankfully.
Sekolah memang penting tapi belajar adalah no 1 yang paling penting ,karna saya lulusan SD tapi alhamdullillah saya bisa bahasa inggris karna saya belajar sedangvyang lulusan SMA bnyak saya temui tidak bisa bahasa inggris bukan karna tidak sekolah tapi mreka tidak belajar 😌😌tapi knyataan nya mereka sekolah 🤔🤔
Dale. Watching from Central Florida. Thank you for letting a 70 yr old see a part of the world he has never been. Lived in the Philippines 1971-73. How long was that cycle trip in miles/km? Keep making memories,
Hi Dale, thanks for exploring these areas, as an Indonesian from kinda rural area, just wanna say do not underestimate the impact of your interaction to local kids. I am a proud villager from East Java, first interaction with european when I was around 9-10y.o in the remnants of Mojopahit temple on the slope of Penanggungan Mountain. Here I am now finishing my PhD in US top engineering campus. I still hold the very memory of that day, even the topic we talked.
Wow really guys Indonesian is really very beautiful and very clean what a nature just love it definitely I visit Indonesian one day in my life love from 🇮🇳INDIA
An hour long video! The perfect way to unwind after a day at work. From a the chaos of an inner city Secondary school in Liverpool to floating down a crystal clear river in Batu Khatak. Keep em coming Dale, your Scottish patter and sense of adventure make these great vlogs :)
Great to hear how much you gave credit to the bike you used and how reliable it was. It's a local brand from Indonesia "Polygon". Such as a good news to us Indonesians for making another great products which have a world class quality. Support Indonesian brand 🇮🇩
mate, theres just something bout your videos that always got me hooked, i felt like in no time, 1 hour had passed and ive reached the end of the video.
@@rakanmuyassar6258 gada salahnya membanggakan negara sendiri yang dah dari dulu diperjuangin kemerdekaannya sama leluhur daripada banggain negara lain yang ga nyumbang sesuatu buat negara sendiri.
The fruits you're asking about is palm coconut, which is the main commodity from Sumatera. It is not edible directly, but it can be processed to make cooking oil and butter. It ia also raw material for biodiesel.
You've really made your day in this video, Dale. Traveling by bike all day, visiting a place you never visit, interacting with locals, and swimming in a shallow, clear, and clean river. I hope you enjoy your next visit to Indonesia as well. Honorable mention for that coconut seller. He is trying hard to communicate with you and doesn't afraid to talk in English. You may as well his first foreign costumer, Dale :D. I hope his business running well even in this pandemic.
I love your videos dale. What you do is literally my dream. To travel the world and visit each culture and break bread with them. Keep up the good work bud
The reason I started to follow you, is bc of indonesian travel vlogs. Watched all of them a million times. Im also a full time grinder, so my journey will begin soon... Here in Indonesia :)
Palm oil trees,plantations or the oil are not bad for environment..it's the factories that processing the oil if not managed in the proper way will be bad for environment..
I see you liking and replied newer comments as well 😄.. just want to say that I hope you would more long format video like this one.. your vlog is really taking me to places along with you. Keep up the great work 👍
I wonder what I'll sound like if I learn to speak Bahasa Indonesia like you. When I speak Thai, Thai people say I'm speaking with the accent of a Chinese toddler, hahaha.
@@Dale_Philip here's a quick guide: Terima kasih = Thank you Apa kabar? = How are you? Selamat pagi = Good Morning Selamat siang = Good afternoon Sampai jumpa = Bye bye Enak = Delicious
i watched a few of your videos, this one was excellent, very enjoyable style of your vlogging. you speak well, and enough to keep interest, but the scenery is the main goal. i appreciate this style. many other people prefer it to be about themselves and not the culture itself, and amazing scenery there is to offer. i think you should keep this style, because the cultural insights in the end will be what proves to be valuable when you look back on these years later. thanks
I'm so proud to the all these village people how the treat and welcome the tourist. Very warm, helpfull. God bless you all local people Batu Katak- Bahorok- Bukit Lawang
this is why I like your channel so much Dale, apart from the accent of course, see you visiting a remote places where few tourist interested like the one you did in toppigala. it also makes me worry for your safety because you are my favorite travel vlogger now😀
As an Indonesian-born guy, I very much envy you in that you've been to places I have not even thought of going.... But, I really enjoy your trips videoed in such a natural fashion.
that's very brave of you to go that far by bicycle in the middle of a day. Even as an Indonesian, i almost faint when tried to do that a long time ago, hahaha. great video by the way. Hope you enjoyed your visit in Indonesia :)
I have to say mate, Indonesian people are some of the nicest and most friendliest folks I’ve ever had the good fortune to meet and interact with! I love Indonesia! Thank you for sharing your wonderful journeys that we can partake in vicariously :)
I like you brother, you are very friendly, and really appreciate the beauty that exists in Indonesia.. keep spirit brother, hopefully your channel will grow up
Salut si Abang for a very eco friendly stuff at his kiosk. I mean especially in a village like that, this is such an excellent awareness. It's not quite common here yet but wow wow wow I'm impressed 😍
You are very brave, passing through lonely & distant roads using only a bicycle. 👏 You have a strong determination for the goals you are targeting. Great, God bless you always. 👍
Hi Dale, Your style of vlogging is just amazing. Every video has a very relaxing vibes in it. Simplicity and getting best out of each adventure makes you one of the best. Keep rocking..👏👌👍
Dale, just a wee note from yer new wannabe mate from Penang. Those bunch of fruits along the road are not betel-nuts. They're actually oil-palm fruits -- the plants of which are just right in-front of you across the road while you're drinking coconut (twice) along the journey. It is the source of the palm oil -- the world's most abundance and most widely consumed edible oil. Indonesia is the world's largest producer whilst Malaysia is currently world's largest exporter. Cheers!
You have a very good expansive attitude. I admire you and your desire of freedom and discovery! 1 hour of a beautiful tour, fantastic people and amazing wood bridges everywhere! Hi, Dale 👍
21:30 Yooo, that most chilling guy ever seen, such a passion with what he's doing. If you all notice after the handshake, that guy put his hand on his chest slowly, that means isn't only just a handshake, but a greeting from the bottom of the heart.
Fantastic vid. That place you swam in the river looks stunning. Good to see some forest conservation going on. I hear palm oil plantations are a big problem in Sumatra. Thanks again.
