    Another amazing vlog. That content was on another level guys 👏
    The vlog we never knew we needed…Fred & Wilma on a bike, loin cloths and yellow wellies. You’re the gift that keeps on giving 😂. It’s truly wonderful to have a British couple that are relatable to their audience and producing fabulous, quality content👍
    Much love 💙

    Hey Matt and Danielle! This video was super sweet! The orangutan trekking is at the top of my bucket list, but I have one huge concern about being in the jungle: the insects! I have a pretty severe insect phobia and want to know what I'd be getting into venturing into/staying a night in the jungle. When you went, did you see lots of large, gnarly-looking creatures (I'm okay with ants/smaller things)? How was the overnight tent, did big bugs make their way in? I really appreciate your video! It's been so helpful as I prepare for my upcoming trip this summer! If you recommend I sit this one out or only do a day trek, I think I'd take your advice. Thank you so much!

      Hey, thanks so much for watching our video. We are super happy that you enjoyed it.
      We get how scary it can be, but we had the best time. I wouldn't say we saw too many bugs to be completely honest. Where you sleep is pretty basic, to say the least, but we didn't have any insects getting in during the night. We did hear what we hope was a frog nearby 😂. It is pitch black at night so you can't really see anything, but there is a mosquito net to keep the nasties out.
      If you want to push yourself out of your comfort zone a little then we recommend it. We had the best time, and saw so many orangutans. If you think you'll be too nervous beforehand or scared during then maybe go for the day trip. We saw so many Orangutans on the first day so we're sure that you'd still see them.
      We hope this helps! Let us know if you go 🙌🏼 We're rooting for you 😂

      @@couplesquest_ thank you so much for responding!! 😭 Your response is so helpful, I’m a lot less nervous! I think getting a little outside of my comfort zone could be a good thing. This is on my bucket list after all! I’ll decide on one night or to do a day tour, but I’ll absolutely update you! Thanks again, I’m honestly so grateful! ♥️

    Please come to my country, Malaysia 🇲🇾.
    Malaysia is much more beautiful than Indonesia.
    Unlike Indonesians, Malaysians can speak English well.
    Malaysia is also one of the most developed countries in Southeast Asia after Singapore.
    All places in Malaysia are clean. You will not find homeless people, beggars, or illegal immigrants in Malaysia.
    Malaysia's capital, Kuala Lumpur, is like London and New York in Asia.
    Malaysia is a very diverse country. Malaysia has three races. The first is the Malay race, the race that rules the country. The Malay race is the one that runs the government and enforces the law. The Malay race has many privileges that are regulated by law. The Malay race is the best race in the world. The second is the Chinese race, which is the economic engine of Malaysia. Without the Chinese race, Malaysia would be a third-world country, just like its neighbours. The last one is the Indian race. They are the workers who built Malaysia at the lowest level. They are the labourers and coolies. Together, these three races have built Malaysia into the most developed country in Asia.
    Malaysia is a member state of the Commonwealth. We have the same system as the United Kingdom. We are proud to have a good relationship with the United Kingdom that goes back a long way. We are also indebted to the United Kingdom for making Malaysia a developed and superior country in Southeast Asia. Our passports are the strongest, and our advanced education is also because of the United Kingdom.

      hello Malaysians, some people travel not to look for modern life but for unique, natural and original things, even things that are beyond their imagination, your understanding of adventuring must be broadened so that you don't remain living in a peanut shell.

      @@jonikoto2138 That's right. Your country is unique in that it is populated by gorilla-brained humans like you. "A very diverse and friendly country" you say? Come on. Everyone knows what your country did to the Chinese-Indonesians. They are banned from speaking Chinese, using Chinese names, and banned from having Chinese schools. Take Malaysia for example, a country where all races can come together in harmony without a single racial riot ever happening.
