@Robert L India traditionally had Dravidian Race which was darker in skin tone and then Aryans came and settled along Gangetic plain and they were light skinned. You will find people of the yellow race in the North Eastern Region of India but they are Indians as well. In my opinion, even the dark skinned have features which make them very beautiful but the general tone of Indian people is Wheatish. Neither light nor dark. South India has extremes of temperatures throughout the year and that also is a reason to the darker tones.
Dale, you really do take us off the beaten path and it makes us feel like we are right there with you seeing the beautiful scenery and meeting the locals and tasting the local cuisine. THATS what makes you such a great vlogger!
@@laurarules3642 Yes I know. You are a bit late to binge watch. He posted these 2 years ago. But he narrates very well and I love his Scottish accent. But of course you can only experience Indian cuisine and taste only in the country and there's a lot to offer. But he did try to go to the adventure park as well.
i love this guy and his videos just found him.. love from dubai buddy.. would love to travel with someone with this kinda vibe .. will be watching much more
@@lolwat5418 I enjoy all of Dale's stuff and I am subscribed to his channel, BUT (and no disrespect to Dale) I still scratch my head and wonder why it takes SIX MONTHS to edit and upload a 50 minute video. I've asked Dale about this but got no response.
My last visit to Munnar was about 15 years ago. There used to be 12 seater minibuses run by the tourist board that drove you all around. One of their trips was to a wildlife sanctuary. If anyone is planning a visit, seek them out.
Dale,I have to admit that you are more Indian than we Indians living here knowing about the scams and rip off of tourist destination. That's great (y) I was mind blown with the detailed information you are trying to get it and give it to the viewers. Keep it up mate. Wishes for you to hit the 1 million mark on subscribers soon.
@@thelionking3321 Indians nowadays learnt a new comeback sentence -'Get a Life' 😆😆😆. I'd say to you get over with it, WOKE! Learn a better one. Looks like you don't even qualify the WOKE title. The use of this line tells that you're some chhapri
I shall never forget the Kerela tour I was on once with over 200 school kids from Mumbai ! We had to take care of them while we were travelling through out the state via a nice comfy bus that picked us up from Ernakulam station. We travelled from Ernakulam to Alleppy then to Thekkaddy and then to Munnar! I shall NEVER EVER FORGET THE DRIVE FROM THEKKADY TO MUNNAR FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE !!!! Just Beautiful. Truly God's Own Country👌👌👌
Yo, maybe I was on that bus. Do you remember the name of the school? We got off at Ernakulam, then travelled to Munnar and kept the luggage in a resort there. From there we travelled to Thekkady, Athirapilly, Allepey and Kochi. This was in late October 2015.

The easiest way for you to compute the auto rickshaw fare is to map your destination and find out the distance. The fair market price is about 22-25 Rs per km ( you have government prices that were set 5 or 6 years ago without adjustment for inflation every year) in a big city and probably 25-30 Rs in remote places like Munnar. Don’t rely on the government rates that were set in 2013-14 which are outdated and you can’t make a living at those prices in 2020. 25-30 Rs per km is a fair market price in a place like Munnar and you want to start at the low end so you have room to go to the high end. Yeah most of the land is owned by corporate tea estates like Tata Tea where your Tetley Tea and PGTips in UK come from the estates in Munnar.
You wont believe this but I have been too for the past week. His no nonsense commentary is my highlight. And he does know his food, remembers the tastes and is a straight up fella. No airs and graces...just straight up honest.
You should've explored Northeast India. That's your kind of destination. The gate crashing, trekking on your own. All is out there in the North East. I'm a Bihari but I loved exploring NorthEast. People are very friendly
Discovered the channel recently and doing binge watch. You have done exceptionally well in visiting India with such and open mind and enjoyment at everything- small or big. Appreciate that so much. Hope to develop that attitude in my travelling also. Will follow you , best wishes for your travelling through life.
Hi Dale.When you realised you were unable to get a scooter the disappointment on your face was like the time you broke your ankle in Sri Lanka.i felt for you as you had plans made.When the waiter jumped in and said Merry Christmas I thought he was gona kiss you!Thanks for a great vlog Dale interesting and enlightening👍👍
There are certainly different challenges in the various places that you visit. You are one strong and courageous dude. Stay safe Thanks for the travel vlogs. 🇨🇦cheers from Canada
Coorg is a good hill station in India, you gotta visit it someday! Has some of the spectacular waterfalls, coffee plantations, old towns, PS best time to visit is in winters (January!)
Every penny is a prisoner with you dale and that's what i love about you, keeping up the stereotype of a tight fellow scotsman😄. Brilliant content as usual pal👌
At least he brought some coz even we Indians go to some shop and taste different sweets or ice cream and never buy any we just say we will come and buy on the way back
I love your travel adventure, especially your courage to eat street food and drinks. I have been to many of the places you vlog, and I am seeing it through different eyes. I got really sick from food poisoning for a few days on my last visit and don't think I will visit again after the pandemic.
I am striking Munnar town centre off my bucket list as Dale has covered it beautifully in his video. Motor bike rental is not a common thing in Kerala unless you find a place in Kochi where they rent them out. You certainly seem to have missed so many tourist spots within 15 to 20 miles radius around Munnar Town Centre. Hiring a jeep from the town centre to take you around is the best way to see these places. Views from these places are immaculate.
Dale thank you my friend for taking us on your jour Journey through your Wonderful You Tube VLOGS ! Strong Legs , Brave Heart you are a Strong Scotsman !!
Addicted to your videos dale , each day after my work from home gets over I start watching your indian trip vlog , it's stress reliever for me enjoying each second of it
I live a very hectic life style and watching you Dale gives me true inspiration that my dreams can still be fulfilled. Please keep the content coming 👍
Nice vid. Been here also. Very friendly place and people. Must visit of you are touring kerala. Kerala is very touristic also for indian people themselves.
Fantastic video Dale. Absolutely love your unadulterated, first hand experience. Please always remain this way, its very easy to connect with your vlogs. That buffet looks yum.
So longs vlogs" without uncut scene's" but I never buddy skipped your vlogs" Lots of love from India brother ♥️ Soon buddy you are going to get famous 😉
Binge watching your videos....what a joy... very interesting..your a credit to Scotland...and a great ambassador to these countries you visit and explore...unique spin on presentations....from upstate New York, USA
Ah man you looked so bummed at 26:00 - sorry to see your plans not pan out that always sucks. Fantastic that you stumbled on the bakery and all those super friendly people in there though. Small joys like that make traveling worth it, at least for me!
Such mesmerizing views, so green. It's good that you didn't get the bike otherwise you wouldn't have gotten the cake and such a fun time walking around
Hey, I'm mridhula from Chennai. I've been following your videos for a few days now. They're so fun to watch also I have a huge crush on you! Much love ❤ God bless you
In your shoes man!! I got the same feeling when travel alone asking the way to get to the place I want, even the way people offer to help if only we pay quite a lot of money then have to spend the time roaming around randomly, but you showed your resilience joyfully. I like that!
Dude, I was already thinking at the end "You should really be eating some vegetables with all of that meat" and voila, Dale surprises us with a full plate of veggies right at the very end :) Excellent video my man, I just watched all 57 minutes and the video leading up to this one as well. You have to have something going for you to keep someone's attention for over an hour. It was a great adventure, starting out looking for a scooter and ending up with memories that you never knew you were going to find. That also includes conversing with the friendly locals. I'm behind on your videos so I still have about 4 more to catch up on :)
