EXPOSING THE "SNAKE CHARMERS"
Learning how to handle unfamiliar snakes in different ways takes a lot more than just using a snake hook or "tongs".

PINYO The Snake Wrangler is an Asiatic snake expert who was teaching me the intricacies of the monocled cobra. They're highly intelligent snakes that are NOT aggressive.

Snake charmers with their flutes would want you to believe their music lures cobras but in reality, its the movement and eye contact. Pinyo was teaching me how cobras interact, when, where, how they bite.

My handling of the snake with Pinyo was under total supervision. Do NOT copy the actions herein. It is part of my learning process around snakes around the world as soon I'm going to need to know how to handle these snakes.

CATCHING SNAKES IN BANGKOK WITH THAILAND'S FIRE AND RESCUE DEPT

A big thank you to PINYO The Snake Wrangler for bringing us along to catch snakes with the THAILAND'S Fire and rescue department. In Thailand, dedicated firefighters catch snakes that go into people's homes - what we should do here, I could see myself as a snake catching firefighter.

Anyway, they get 100 - 200 snakes a day in Bangkok. Enjoy

THE MONOCLED COBRA (Naja kaouthia)
Come join me Siam Serpentarium  as I got up close and personal with the Monocled cobra. These very misunderstood snakes, display hooded behaviour and hiss loudly when threatened. Monocled cobras grow up to 2.3m (but rarely this big) and are essential for protectingagriculture by eating vermin.

A big thank you to Beem@Siam Serpentarium🐍 and the team for this incredible opportunity.

For our amazing tour of the Siam Serpentarium by Beem@Siam Serpentarium🐍 and the team.

SHOPPING WITH MRS SNAKE HUNTER
Most of the time in our 4 day trip to Thailand was about snakes, charity, snakes, giving speeches and more snakes but we spent 1 day shopping genuine name brands that were 100% real and exclusively found in every single shop in Thailand.

For some reason they were about 1/1000th of the real price but maybe I cant calculate the currency conversion right. Anyway, if you want to go shopping - go to Thailand :)

EDUCATING THAILAND'S VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS ABOUT SNAKES
Educating people about snakes is my passion and I was honoured to be invited by PINYO The Snake Wrangler to teach the next group of volunteer fire fighters about snakes.

I got to catch reticulated pythons, bottle a cobra, demonstrate different snakes in a whole new place.

The Thai people are super nice and polite, respectful and so lovely. I have loved every minute of Thailand. Thank you to PINYO The Snake Wrangler and the people of Thailand for being such wonderful hosts.

LEARNING ABOUT THAILAND'S SNAKES
PINYO The Snake Wrangler is Thailand's most prominent snake catcher and educator. I had the honour of meeting and learning from him.

Learn about what to do/not do if bitten by a snake. No matter where I go in the world, every snake expert says snakes don't want to hurt or bite you.
