INDIA, AHMEDABAD: You have to try Gujarati food people have been tellin me ever since I touched down in Ahmedabad. So I thought I would do just that by going to the famous Manekchok Streetfood market which opens at night. What I wasn't anticipating though was that my first dish there would be Punjabi. After a little trouble ordering due to my non-existant Hindi language skills I finally was served a delicious Veg Manchurian.

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: After finishing only half of my Veg Manchurian which turned out to be just a simple rice dish I still had lots of space left to try the Indian street pizza stall right next to it. So how do they make pizza in India without a pizza oven? Human ingenuity always finds a way....

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: After the Veg Manchurian and a couple of slices of pizza it was time to go all out. This next street food stall was my last stop (or so I had planned). I chose a busy looking one and got down to business. I have no idea what the two dishes I ordered were or what they contained. All I knew was that they intrigued me and I wanted to try both. But the show didn't end there. Walking home I ran into an old favorite of mine....

INDIA, GUJARAT: There are some meals money can't buy and is only available to a select audience. to qualify you must be an Indian primary school student. Luckily, it just so happens to be that I am one! I therefore sat down with the awesome students at Manej Primary school for an epic meal time. So how big were the portions and what was the food like?

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: How cheap can Indian street food get? So low that it's almost free. At least that's what this Gujarati Thali I discovered on the streets of Ahmedabad felt like. But at this cost how large are the portions? How edible and tasty is the food?

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: India's state of Gujarat is often referred to as a 'dry state'. Why? Because people there aren't allowed to drink. Not that that was going to stop me. But before I attempted to go about procuring some magic potion through unofficial channels, I figured it's worth a shot to try.

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: In this new series called Harald Spreads the Wealth or Harald Shares the Rupee (jury still out on the title) I take one month's money donated by my Patreons and give to a deserving self-employed individual or entrepreneur. This month the lucky recipient was a hard working Indian street barber / hairdresser. As I walked by his shop he had a big smile on his face and welcomed me to sit down. So what's his story and the nature of is one man business? What hairstyle did I go for? And was he better than the Delhi hairdresser? Watch me get a hair-cut in the streets of India for the answer :-)

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: After my street hair-cut I need a street beard trim if not outright clean shave. Luckily in India's 5th biggest city by population street barbers are everywhere. And best of all, they seem to charge a uniform 20 rupees for a shave. So once again I sat down on the streets of Ahmedabad not really knowing what to expect. . . .

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: Ever since I started sampling the Gujarati street food around Ahmedabad people have been telling me their favorite is actually Punjabi dishes. I've therefore long since wanted to put this to the test, but how? I don't know what Punjabi street food even looks like! Luckily today I ran into a stall selling a Punjabi potato dish by pure accident. So was it really better than the Gujarati dishes I've had?

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: In the middle of India's 6th largest city lies a magical city within a city. It's often referred to as the local slum or joked about as the Hollywood Colony. Where or how it got the name no one has been able to tell me. But this is hands down the wildest happiest most lively place I've ever encountered on my India travels. Every time I've driven by, there's been some festival or wedding party going on. The people are dressed in colorful Rajasthani fashion and nearly everyone says hello to me as I pass by. Knowing though that the interweb is full of useless videos of people doing walk through in exotic areas I thought I'd do one better. Why not show people what the inside of this place looks like and how these people live? Thus was born Harald Invades....

INDIA, AHMEDABAD: After breaching the Hollywood Colony's defenses using a policy or relentless attrition, it was time to bond with the locals. And what better way to bond than over dinner? Indian food as I've relayed in countless videos is damn tasty but also much more hygienic than its reputation. When this Indian family offered me to eat with them I was therefore overjoyed at the chance of partaking in this experience. So what dish did they cook? And what does an Indian family dinner even look like?

SAIGON, VIETNAM: After driving around in Saigon's sweltering heat heat for 2 hours my patience was wearing thin. I'd been looking for a street barber so I could get shave but without success. The time was ripe for compromise. I thus opted for an open air barber in the poverty stricken district 6. The shave went as expected but as I was leaving I realized that this was a family run business and that the barber was living on premises with his whole family. This I had to investigate....

SAIGON, VIETNAM: Not having seen a capsule hotel since my first trip to Japan in 2001, I became pretty excited when I learnt that Saigon actually has one. Although pricier than your average budget hotel room in this mega city, Sunland capsule hotel offers something the others don't and hence charge accordingly. A unique experience you'll never forget. I therefore had no choice but to book in to my very own private capsule for a once in a lifetime experience.

SAIGON, VIETNAM: The variety of food on offer in the bustling streets of Saigon, Vietnam's biggest city, is second to none. Everything is on offer in all price ranges. Still one of the last things I expected to encounter on my Saigon street food hunt was an American making Mexican food in Vietnam! THIS I had to try.... so how was the tacos and what did they cost? And do people in the streets of Saigon recognize me? This and more in today's episode.

SAIGON, VIETNAM: Vietnam's economy is booming with small scale manufacturers popping up everywhere. Jeans, shoes, t-shirts and everything between heaven and earth are made in workshops where workers are laboring away at an impressive 17 hours a day. So what does it look like inside one of these operations? And how are the good produced? As Vietnam is quite far behind the West in terms of economic development and only begun the process of industrialization a few decades ago, it should come as no surprise that manufacturing here is a highly labor intensive endeavor. So join me as I take a closer look at Vietnam's economy by touring a shoe manufacturing business that has been in the hands of the same family for 30 years.

SAIGON, VIETNAM: I flew to Vietnam with nothing more than the clothes I was wearing and a change of t-shirt and underwear. Top of my agenda was thus to scour through Saigon's famous 'fake' clothes market (Ben Thanh) for a 2nd, 3rd and 4th outfit. From Nike shoes, Tommy Hilfiger t-shirts and Calvin Klein underwear this market has it all. So what do the products cost? What is the starting price? And what can for example a t-shirt be haggled down to? This and much more in episode one of my mega Vietnam fake market hunt. English

VIETNAM, SAIGON: The market shopping spree continues. After having been royally fleeced in the first episode I continue to get flagged down by greedy vendors eager for a mega payday. Seeing as I quite enjoy seeing how life and work at this market perpetuates itself I solider on. Besides, can one really ever own enough socks and t-shirts? And is overpaying when you know you are really a scam? The answer is no and no ;-)

VIETNAM, SAIGON: I'd bought nearly everything I needed in this market apart from one thing. A new pair of shoes. Not that I needed a pair but I was curious to see how much a fake pair of Adidas shoes cost i Vietnam plus it was rather fun to bargain with the funny sales women. So I decided to go on one last market hunt just for fun. So how much does a fake pair of Adidas shoes cost in Vietnam? What are the cheapest shoes? And what is the price for Converse shoes?

THAILAND, BANGKOK: In the middle of Bangkok there's an area or mall called Korea town. I've wanted to try the Korean BBQ there for over a decade now but was too afraid to venture into a Korean restaurant alone. But today was the day when I decided to put a stop to this. I needed to fid a local ally so I could try out Bangkok's finest Korean BBQ and suffer no more. How did I do it? What was the Korean food like? And is Korean food better than Thai food?

THAILAND, BANGKOK: The best beef steak I've ever had was in Landmark hotel's Rib Room Steakhouse. A decade ago I went there for a Kobe beef I have not been able to get out of my mid. So with Mr. Noodles in town, it was the perfect occasion for a second visit to Landmark hotel. Upon entering the restaurant however I quickly realized that the Kobe beef was no longer on the menu. Though they had substituted it with something even better and far pricier. What was it? And what did this ridiculously expensive dinner cost in the end?

VIETNAM, SAIGON: Most of the food I try in Asia, especially the street food, is excellent. But there's always the exception. This day in Vietnam was a horrible food day. After not having had a single bite of anything for 36 hours I decided to sit down at a street restaurant to eat a whole chicken. I was mighty hungry and looking forward to devouring it like no chicken I've ever dug into in my lifetime. So what was wrong with the food and why was it so bad?
