Our Take

Man, if this wasn’t for Thais only, RW4U would be the PERFECT candidate haha! In all honesty though, I’ve had a few people reach out telling us we should apply, but even if we were allowed to throw our hat into the ring, we much prefer the complete freedom and autonomy that comes with making our own videos on our own channel for you guys. It is nice to see TAT show some love to creators though. I’ve tried to book a few meetings with them, but have never had any luck, so now that they appear to be more open to working with YouTubers, I’d definitely like to set something up. I think there’d be a ton of cool things we could ultimately do together. Thailand definitely gets a lot of love from our videos 😉
