🥒 *ABOUT BEFRS:*
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I’m a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture. Peace!

The Ironic thing is Sonny made more in 1 month then all these monks combined you go boy!… Sarcasm
Wow I just noticed deadpool after the shave😂😂
Still half way into finishing this video, i must say this one is my absolute favorite so far 🙌🙌🙌 Keep going! 🩷✨️
Why the heck are you still talking 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Thank you sonny for showing the world and not selling out even tho you wanted too $$$$$$
We love you man, legit af , positive af .. we need you man .. thx. 😇🤘😎
I remember when I was young I think around 8 and I was sitting next to a Buddhist Monk trying on shoes, this is 1982 and he was so talented and nice. I looked at this strange man in robes getting shoes fitted next to me. He was making me laugh histerically, he made his shoes talk by manipulating the heel as a bottom lip. It was "we're shoes, how are we talking? And hope we get no stinky feet" like a puppet show. When I was a "bad kid" I was taken to a evangelical cultish Christian school. My mother thinking it would help me. We weren't even religious. I had to attend "church" every Friday at school. The kids were mean as hell to me. The staff even were bullying me because the kids were. I remember the preacher saying Buddhist monks worshipped "demons" and did other nasty things and I had to walk out because that monk provided me the only positive connection I could remember. They grabbed me and tried to drag me back into the church. It went worse from there. Anyway, that's my story.
Omg you cut all your hair off
The background music is too loud. At @9:40, I have to strain to hear the conversation.
it's basically same in nepal also they eat the same things
Addiction is a state of mind. The goal is to control your toughts and so called needs, to become the master of all the temptations. It took me over 40 yrs of my life, to take control over my instincts. Not a monk.
You look good Bro. People have spent more to augment their body. I would bet many of them wish it was something they could just “shave off”
Monks are so cool and such good people. They are so caring and so wise. What an experience. You are lucky to have such an experience.
Damn!!! Sunny I hope it grows back if it don’t do like me just get your whole head tattooed 😂😂😂
Та нар чинь их хаан ЧИНГИСИЙН хойч үе биш юм уу?
Төвд хүн юм уу?
Эсвэл ийм малнаас дор тэнэг болчихсон юм уу?

Love from Sri Lanka
The last part is so touching 🥹
if ur lactose-intolerant, ur so done…
It's a place for monks to realize they're nothing more than another walking talking shyte bag. 🤷
Whats up with the breathing in my left ear at the end i thought someone was behind me
he look like docter strange 😅
Monk Robes, Crocks & an Apple Watch. Really?
Sonny is more Buddhist than I am at this point.
This is so wholesome! Thank you, Sonny for working so hard to show the world this part of BHUTAN.🇧🇹🙏
❤❤❤
Absolutely fantastic and artistic camera shots, suspenseful and enchanting use of audio design, and wonderful visual representations to avoid Ai (I hope). This was so beautiful to watch.
Outstanding journalism ☯️
did he just say "oh my god" 8:48
And this isn't a cult?
you said "JESUS!"
You championing BetterHelp is pretty damning. Get that bag, I guess…
From one to another, you rock a great clean shave brother. 🤙
Bro does look good with the bald look actually 😊
Bro I think monk doesn't want to be famous through different social platforms
I hope that you now understand that the whole world dosen't revolve around you narcisstic Americans – cultures traditions are so old they will go on whether you like it or not and never asked for a white man's approval – from India to Bhutan to Nepal – Mongolia – China . These are ancient civilizations and their culture , food , spirituality is what a white man will never be able to comprehend . But when you are there look at those people and you will see them committed not as a show but every fiber in their mind , body and soul.
This is a cult.
Don't go start airbending now
