Where the Channel Begins

This first vlog begins the channel’s record of traveling from Phoenix to Thailand. The journey continues in the Bangkok quarantine and Koh Samui episodes.

Phoenix to Seattle to Tokyo

The travel day starts with an 8:50 AM departure, a quick and friendly check-in with American Airlines, and a short security line at gate A14. After a domestic hop to Seattle, where the international terminal has ghost-town vibes, the family boards a 787-8 for the long-haul flight to Tokyo Narita in Japan.

The Next Chapter

The onward journey leads to the Bangkok stay documented in the next part of the archive. Read these episodes together for the opening chapter of the channel.
