This Episode features impressions from 2 weeks Thailand during the rain season. We were basically just driving every almost day to get North as fast as possible.

Episode 2 Info:

0:01 - Pai
Pai is actually in Northern Thailand so we got there later than the edit would suggest. However, I wanted to put it into the beginning as it's a fun contrast to the quiet shots afterwards. It is somewhat of a Hippie-Mecca with lots of alternative tourists but also has this festival which seemed very authentic to us.

1:34 - Bangkok (Part 1)
We visited Bangkok twice on our trip. So there's a lot more to come in Episode 5. This time, it's only a handful of impressions from the rainy days.

2:35 - North Thailand (general)
After Bangkok is was raining a week straight. We were going into the mountains in the north-western Region driving on mud roads and fighting the water inside the car as it was leaking through on many spots. Camping is no fun, when it's pouring.

2:48 - Doi Inthanon
Doi Inthanon is the highest mountain in Thailand with 2565 Meters. But the peak is still covered with high trees so you don't really get any spectacular view. However, the fog within the forest up there made a great scenery.

3:00 - Refugee Kids
We accidentally drove in this area where there was a refugee camp streching over many kilometers at the Myanmar boarder. They wouldn't let us in but we could see many kids playing outside on the streets. Later we found a Myanmar refugee which told us alot about the region and why there are all there.

3:48 - Chiang Mai
This was one of the most fun cities we visited with tons of young native people studying there so we had some great nights going out. Luckily, we didn't film any of it.
After Chiang Mai we drove straight to Chiang Khong all the way North East at the Laos boarder to cross it the next morning.

@horstdieblume2 man erzählte uns, das sei recht angesagt beim landvolk im norden. aus unerfindlichen gründen. scheinbar wüssten sie gar nicht, was das tatsächlich bedeutet.

[fredsk877]

just curious as to how you pulled off the shot at 1:24? weather it was shot from a moving vehicle or if it was a dolly/crane shot, and what you did about the rain etc?! thanks

The intro at 0:11 reminded me of horror movies.

@isensevenMOVIES

In Asien kennen die ja gar nicht das Hakenkreuz, das is nämlich eigentlich das feuerrad oder so, ein altes budistisches zeichen welches den ewigen kreislauf wiederspiegelt. Im Buddhismus bedeutet ess rAufstieg, Geburt und Glück

I am so impressed...
