Want more RW4U? Check out my website here: retiredworking...
What is a Thailand Elephant Sanctuary? And what makes an ethical elephant sanctuary? Take a road trip from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi and visit one of the best elephant sanctuaries in Thailand. See what it is like swimming with elephants, in this elephant jungle sanctuary, and even get up close with a baby elephant.
Today's Thailand vlog takes you with me as I visit Elephants' Home and Nature, a place where you can visit elephants but they do not actually consider themselves a sanctuary. In fact, Khun Tong (the owner), speaks very candidly about the topic of elephants in captivity and so-called sanctuaries.
This channel is about adventure and experiencing new things. Your opinion may differ from mine and if so, I'd love to hear about it in the comments. I do know that Khun Tong, Khun Bank, and all other staff here dedicate their lives to the magnificent elephants that they live with.
If you are interested in visiting this place, you can contact Khun Tong directly through their Facebook link here: / elephantshomeandnature
(Just tell her that you heard about her place on my video and she will take VERY good care of you)
Here is a Google Map Pin so you can easily find Elephants' Home and Nature: goo.gl/maps/k6...
Please share this video with anyone you know who loves elephants!
And as always, the destination is great but the journey is half the fun!

This channel is here to grow a community of people that inspire each other.
I hope to inspire you by showing you that retired life is the best chapter.
And you're here to inspire me to get out and do stuff!
At the end of the day, this Channel is all about YOU.
Let me know what you want to see next and I'll do my best to make it happen!
After all...I'm Retired, Working For You.

Dude, this is such an awesome place and we want to visit! I love how genuine this group is. I'm just now subscribing, but my wife and I watch your videos on our TV most of the time! So I figured I'd jump on my laptop here so I could comment. We are planning to visit Thailand again next year, and soon after plan to stay there for several months (toying with the idea of moving there!)

A tip: when the lady explained why the elephant had the rope collar, it would have been very useful for you to paraphrase what she explained so we viewers would understand it. I watched it a couple of times carefully and finally got it, but it's definitely not so easy. You could fix that easily during editing :).

You have to be very very careful. Despite many good things in Thailand, road accident is the second cause of death in Thailand! It is a serious problem! Very dangerous. Especially on the highway.

@paulrogers6866 3 года назад
I think that this was one of my favourite vids that you have done. They are such majestic creatures and we have been lucky enough to spend time with both Indian and African elephants. Elephants home has def gone on the list of places to visit next time I am in Bangkok. So you say Starbucks is a no go but you still go to Timmy's, is this double standards!!- I think that they should both be blacklisted although Cafe Amazon is also a massive state owned concern so maybe we should add that too and support the small artisinal guys
