  • 30 Days in Chiang Mai on a Budget.
    Our travels in Thailand have taken us to some pretty amazing places, Sticky Waterfall, Elephant sanctuaries, and some beautiful temples for example, and we're doing it all on a budget.

    You might ask yourself, "Why not return these elephants to the wild?" Well, there are issues with that too. Some of these elephants have substantial injuries, and some have never even been in the wild. The likelihood of survival would be slim. There's also the issue of there being no strict regulations over what happens to them in Thailand. Reintroducing them to the wild can lead them to be captured again and claimed as someone else's property. That said, if you've read this far we'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

    I'm a new subscriber! I absolutely adore your guys videos. As a Thai person who love watching these of videos about thailand. I found that you guys are so respectful, fun and super informative. I found your videos because I wanted to see where to travel to when I go back home from England, and I have no regrets.
    If I'm being super honest, you guys are one of the best travel vlog out there. Keep it up and cannot wait to join your channel growth and where you go next!

      I kept saying you know a place is legit when the elephants look happy. I can't explain how I know these elephants were happy. Just an energy, and the way they were playful. One of the oldest elephant kept following us around and she looked like she was posing for photos while the baby she showed came up to me as soon as it heard the camera click. Kinda scared me a bit because I knew it wanted to play but playing with an elephant that doesn't know it's own strength had me backing up lol

      Thanks so much! We actually used an E-Sim for our entire time in Thailand through Airalo. If you use code SARA1282, you can get $3 off.
      We love the convenience of E-Sims because you can have cell service the second you land in the country and top up from anywhere. That being said, getting a physical SIM card at a phone store, 7/11, etc. will definitely be more affordable. Our E-Sim was dtac and it worked great.

      Thank you for your perspective. But I will say that from a tourism side of things it's maltreatment of an elephant to have hundreds of people a day riding on it's back, especially along cement roads. And that's not even considering how some elephants are trained to be ridable. Great article here explaining what years of tourist rides can do to an elephant edition.cnn.com/travel/article/thailand-elephant-ride-abuse-intl-hnk/index.html

      @@TheDetourDuo How about horse riding in western countries? Which be ridden everywhere for a long time or even days, compared to elephants, which are very small. Seeing this makes me feel sorry for a horse too. Very small compared to elephants but have to carry the burden of many people. Riding a goat, riding a donkey, riding a camel... which is much smaller than an elephant. What is your opinion?
      Personally, I don't encourage people to ride any type of animal. Must give equal importance to all types of animals. Cancel elephant riding, goat riding, donkey riding, camel riding, cow riding, buffalo riding, goose riding.... Cancel all animal riding around the world.

    I love the video but i dont think it's necessary to lecture about what is ethical and not.
    Just touching or even riding elephants isnt at all the same as places that directly beat or harm the animals.
    Thai people throughout hundreds of years in the past, have ridden elephants and even used them in warfare.
    Just like we use horses. Just as you can be ethical and respectful to an horse when riding it, you can be the same to elephants.

      I definitely understand what you're saying, but that's a bit different from having hundreds of guest a day touching, riding and stressing an elephant out. You could literally see the past scars from that on some of these elephants. That's the message we were trying to get across, and I believe it's the same message as the sanctuary as well. We're not saying Thai people shouldn't be riding elephants. We're saying tourists shouldn't be doing these things.
