      Thanks for the content. Lots of Russians in Koh Kood (eg. many restaurants and menus are catered for Russians). It's nice and tranquil, but remote… more towards the Cambodian border. There are not many choices of restaurants, bars, or nightlife entertainment in Koh Kood.

      I AM FROM SARDINIA AND I CONFIRM THAT IT IS A VERY BEAUTIFUL PLACE. MADEIRA IT IS VERY NICE BUT FROM MY POINT OF VIEW THE ARCHIPELAGO OF AZORES IS EVEN BETTER, I WAS IN KOH KOOD ON FEBRUARY AND IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE IF YOU GO THERE YOU CAN ALSO VISIT THE ISLANDS OF KOH CHANG AND KOH MAK.

      Thanks for the list. I loved Crete, especially Chania, and I'm booked for Sardinia (and Puglia) in Sept., but in Alghero, on the west side. I've also been to something like 40+ countries and Thailand might also be my favorite. I was there in January, in Ko Samet, not far from Ko Chang, which I enjoyed. But I also was in Laos the same trip, which I adored. I would say that Laos, along with Tunisia, are the 2 most underrated countries I've visited.

      Have u been to Marrakech? It’s very different to most places but it’s a lot friendlier (most people) than expected

    21. @jacekpalka55 on

      Aw that was an awesome list. I love a lot of those places too! I’ve been wondering about relocating to Crete so it was good to see it through your eyes. I’ll go dig up that episode.

      Great video, I've been to a few of these places. Have traveled to about 100 countries over the decades. Italy is one of my favorites, and have been to every region except Sardinia! So that is next on a future trip, as well as Corsica. I also loved Guatemala, Antigua is fabulous. Have been to every Central American country, and really enjoyed Nicaragua too, so put that on your list if you have not been yet….go to Granada, Leon, take the ferry to Ometepe and go up north to Esteli. My other favorites have been Malta & Gozo, Turkey, Oman, Tunisia, Ethiopia, Serbia, Montenegro, Portugal, Faroe Islands, Montserrat, Colombia, Chile

      If you loved Madeira, you should give the Azores a go! Not as developed as Madeira, more raw and full of nature. Each of the 9 islands has something unique! Looks like a mix between Hawaii and New Zealand!

      Interesting Guatemala made your list. I came here for a holiday 16 years agao and have been every year since, and even own my own home here now. I met my husband here 10 years ago, it's a wonderful place to live. Has its issues, make no mistake. But it's a special place and wonderful if you are a person that is genuinly interested in learning Spanish and partaking in the culture. Most of our friends are Guatemalan, they are the best people. And we've traveled to many countries, work online and can live anywhere we want really. Guate for the win!

      Looking for a place warm in January and considering Guatemala. What was the stray animal population issue where you went in Guatemala? I've been to Koh Kood and totally agree…stunningly beautiful!

    30. @Mark-z5f3f on

      Great video guys. Yep totally with you for recommending Crete.
      It's a beautiful island like so many other Greek Islands.
      It offers the best food in the Mediterranean, Greek baklava is phenomenal along with the world renowned Greek salad. It also has some of the world's best beaches and friendly, hospitable people. Greece is well worth the visit.

      If you are looking for something different, consider visiting AlUla and Shura Island before the end of the year; both are paradise-like destinations for a honeymoon. AlUla is best visited during the winter season, coinciding with the Ancient Kingdoms Festival, the Winter at Tantora Festival, and the Citrus Festival.

      Love the content you guys are creating. Unfortunately I’m not as young or as fit as you guys are…would love to know how strenuous some of the hikes and outdoor activities are to see rate whether I can tackle them. Keep up the travel and the great content!

    35. @NMDY on

      Some great lesser known spots. Varkala is also one of my favourite spots in India, especially if you looking for a chilled out vibe. Loved Guatamala also, especially around Lake Atitlan. Imo the Portugese (and Spanish) islands are better travel destinations than the mainland for most travellers.

    37. @wanderingtravellerAB99 on

      Guys, great content but back off the clickbait…Sardania isn’t a secret to anyone, inside or outside of Italy…the surf town that no one talks about seems to have hundreds of people on the beach. Be authentic, it’s got more longevity.

    38. @mattide84 on

      Fantastic video with a great mix of known and not-so-well-known places. Love your adventurous spirit, but most importantly I'm inspired by your joy and expression of appreciation and gratitude, it's lovely and contagious.

      Love you two, what a lovely couple. How lucky you guys are to have each other to travel together. I’m in my sixties & never managed to find a partner with my passion for travel. I travel solo which I’ve been doing since I was 18. Enjoy your life together & keep travelling xo
