Let's explore Bangkok on foot today 🇹🇭
This is my first time in Bangkok in a number of years, except for that one night when I did the sleeper train from the south to Bangkok a few months before this recording. It's time to catch up with the city and dig in, as there is a lot to see.

Then&now: Viaduct Matraman at Meester Cornelis - 1920 🇮🇩
The viaduct in Matraman, designed to grade-separate train tracks from the road below, has been in use ever since it's construction. Things changed only a few years ago when the tracks were de-activated and removed to allow for the construction of the higher train viaduct you see directly behind it. New tracks will be installed later.

150 dollar to enter Indonesia!
Indonesia has been playing around with a number of ideas on how to stop tourism to Bali. Ooh wait, that's not right, they don't want to stop it actually, but the plans that keep being presented to you as a tourist certainly look like it. What's going on here?

Just me driving for 10 hours and commenting on everything 🇮🇩
While driving some 500 kilometers from Jakarta to Yogyakarta, I recorded big parts of it and commented on the things you can expect while driving around in Indonesia. I have never really done this before, so I thought it would be fun to give you an inside look for a bit.
Material recorded on March 12/13, 2023.

Then&now: Tjiliwung water gate Manggarai - 1933 🇮🇩
Together with the construction of Manggarai Station and a number of other buildings, the area of Meester Cornelis was developed from a swampy farming area into a suburb of Batavia. Controlling the water upstream became important as the low-lying areas of Batavia kept flooding. This huge water gate in the Ciliwung river at Manggarai was an important part of the development of the area.

Snakes on a plane is real in India
Someone wanted to start a snake collection I guess. But the lady was caught with 22 living snakes in her check in luggage at her destination airport, so there are quite some questions...

Landed safely after bird strike, but this will leave a mark 🇺🇸
Bird strikes are very common actually, but will make you probably sh*t your pants when it actually happens on a plane you're in, let alone a few meters from your seat!
This bird strike took place on April 23, 2023.

These people REFUSED to fly with Batik Air
When the crew tells you everything is fine and your plane will depart in a few minutes after everything clearly is NOT fine, what would you do? These passengers on board a Batik Air flight in Indonesia decided they didn't want to be on this plane anymore, but it took them half an hour of mutiny to get off the plane. They were eventually picked up by a replacement plane about two hours later.
This incident occurred on April 20, 2023.

Then&Now: Mariupol, Ukraine 🇺🇦
The city of Mariupol in Ukraine was the location of one of the main battles at the start of the bloody invasion and war by Russia. Thousands of Ukrainian soldiers were hunkered down in the catacombs of the city, that was razed to the ground by the occupying forces. For now, Mariupol is under Russian control, but the once prosperous city at the Black Sea will be united with the rest of free Ukraine eventually!

You just missed this AMAZING error fare
This one didn't last long, but quite a number of people were able to pick up this error fare before it was pulled from the website. Probably at least hundreds of people now have a very cheap business class or first class ticket to the United States, as the airline has said it will most likely honour the tickets issued.

The monkeys came down from the volcano 🇮🇩
In between watching the volcano in this extremely quiet area, there are birds to be spotted and monkeys wandering around, looking for anything to eat. These macaques live on higher slopes of mountains, but do go down when the volcano is erupting as they won’t be able to find food easily up there during those times.
In the full video out this Sunday, so you too can relax my listening to some wildlife but also watch the Mount Merapi volcano slowly doing its routine of producing little eruptions and pyroclastic clouds.

Fly this HIDDEN AIRLINE in business class if you can! 🇹🇼
It's already time to head back home after my stay here in Taipei has come to an end. After an early wake up I was at the airport around seven in the morning, leaving enough time to roam through the not too attractive business class lounge before boarding on what many call a hidden airline, but is that right?

Then&now: Tandjoeng Priok station - 1925 🇮🇩
The Dutch colonial train station of Tanjung Priok, or Tandjoeng Priok back then, can still be admired in all it's Art Deco style. It's the second station at this location, the original 1882 station was demolished after the seaport grew very hard, and a new station was needed to cope with the growth of freight traffic.

To the top of Taipei 101, finally! 🇹🇼
Over recent years I have visited quite a number of superhigh buildings and in today's video I'm going to add another one. Taipei 101 was the highest building in the world between 2004 and 2009. I have earlier visited the predecessor (Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur) and successor (Burj Khalifa in Dubai), and now it's time to fill in the gap!

Yummie Hong Kong noodles in #Bangkok, why not? this 24/7 roadside restaurant sells quick meals for a dollar or two. It's located right at the corner of Petchaburi Road and Soi 17 and is easy to spot from even across the road. #foodie #noodles #HongKong
Then&now: Batavia train station 🇮🇩
The Dutch colonial train station of Batavia, or Batavia Zuid (Batavia South) as it was also known, is the second station building in this location, built between 1926 and 1926. The area in front of it has recently been renovated as a pedestrian zone and will have access to the Jakarta metro in a few years time as well.

Some manual labour is required to get the most impatient Thai to stop for an approaching commuter train. With seconds to spare he gets the job done though.
