His blunt advice to fellow travellers? 'Mat aao Europe' – don't visit Europe in the summer.
The struggle of Europe's summer heat
In the now-viral video, Bulbul expresses his discomfort while travelling through different cities in Europe, pointing out how tough it can be to explore during the peak summer heat. Right at the start, he delivers a clear message for anyone planning a European summer getaway: 'Bahut garmi hai. Jo log bhi Europe aana chahte hain ghoomne, please mat aao' (It's way too hot here.
Those planning to visit Europe, please don't).
Watch the viral video here:
What bothers him the most? The absence of basic cooling facilities in many European hotels and rentals. Even with steep accommodation costs, he says it's common to find places without air conditioning– or even a fan– making it nearly impossible for tourists to deal with the scorching heat.
Small rooms, high prices: The discomforts of travel
Bulbul also takes issue with the size and pricing of hotel rooms, calling them 'dabbe jaise chhote chhote kamre hain yahan par vo bhi itne mehengey' (The rooms are so small like boxes and still very expensive).
The video also touches on the lack of basic amenities for travelers, with Bulbul explaining that even staying hydrated in the heat is a challenge. He warns that a small bottle of water can cost anywhere between 2 to 2.5 euros (around ₹200–₹250), adding another layer to the frustration.
Mixed reactions from viewers
Since Bulbul's video went viral, it has sparked a flood of responses from viewers online, with people expressing both agreement and disagreement.

Some users agreed with Bulbul's take on summer travel, recounting their own frustrating experiences in European cities. One user commented, 'He is absolutely right. Majority of cafés and restaurants didn't even have fans, let alone AC. Not a good idea to visit during summer.
Even the cheapest hotel in India has a fan or a cooler.'
Similarly, another user shared their experience, 'My daughter lives in Germany... she says the same.
She bought a fan and an air cooler.'
However, not all viewers felt the same way. Some defended the European summer experience, asserting that Europe, in fact, offers plenty of comfort even in the heat. 'I don't know which part of Europe you went to. No doubt it's warm, but there are ACs on the trains, trams, buses, and in hotels. It's beautiful. Don't spread rumours. I was there last week, and it was amazing,' a user pointed out.

Doklam, India-China conflict site in Sikkim, soon to be tourist spot
GANGTOK Eight years after witnessing a stand-off between Indian and Chinese troops, Sikkim's Doklam is opening up for tourists. Located 68 km east of the State's capital, Gangtok, and at an altitude of 13,780 feet, Doklam is a plateau in Chumbi Valley at the tri-junction of Bhutan, China, and India. It became a flashpoint in June 2017 when China attempted to build a road in territory claimed by Bhutan. India intervened to safeguard its strategic interests and safeguard Bhutan, an ally. China stopped the construction activities at Doklam, also known as Donglang, after more than two months of controlled stand-off. 'We are preparing to open Doklam for visitors in September, when the tourist season starts in Sikkim. It is one of three sites the Defence Ministry identified in Sikkim for battlefield tourism in India,' the State's Additional Chief Secretary handling the Tourism and Civil Aviation departments, C. Subhakar Rao, told The Hindu. The other two sites are Nathu La and Cho La, where a series of clashes between Indian and Chinese troops took place from September to October 1967. Sikkim, then an Indian protectorate, became India's 22nd State in May 1975 following a referendum where the majority of the State's people voted for a merger. 'Nothing much needs to be done at Nathu La, which is already a tourist spot about 58 km from Gangtok. At the other two Bharat Rannbhoomi Darshan sites (Cho La and Doklam), we are constructing cafeterias, restrooms, wayside amenities, and parking spaces jointly with the Army,' Mr Rao said. While Nathu La is situated at an altitude of 14,140 feet, Cho La is perched at 17,780 feet above sea level. Cho La is a pass accessible in all-wheel-drive vehicles from Tamzey, where the Army has a medical facility where tourists experiencing altitude-related health issues can be treated. The road to Tamzey bifurcates about a kilometre above the Changu or Tsomgo Lake, which is more than 16 km short of Nathu La, situated on the Old Silk Route. Army officials said work at the battlefield tourism sites has been on track despite harsh conditions. 'A fourth site in Sikkim, Gurudongmar Lake, is also on the battlefield tourism circuit as a Shaurya Gantavya (destination of valour),' an officer of Colonel rank at a forward location said. About 190 km from Gangtok and at an altitude of about 17,800 feet, Gurudongmar is one of the highest lakes in the world. The lake in the Mangan district is named after Guru Padmasambhaba and is considered sacred by Buddhists and Sikhs. The only other northeastern State with Shaurya Gantavya sites is Arunachal Pradesh. These sites include Tawang and Walong, where Chinese and Indian soldiers fought in 1962.

Indian embassy issues advisory against travel to Thailand
Following violent clashes near the Thailand-Cambodia border, the Indian embassy in Thailand on Friday issued an advisory for Indian nationals urging them to avoid travel to seven provinces in Thailand. It also urged travellers to check for updates from Thai official sources before planning their travel, including from the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT). The Indian embassy wrote on X, 'In view of the situation near the Thailand-Cambodia border, all Indian travellers to Thailand are advised to check updates from Thai official sources, including TAT Newsroom. As per the Tourism Authority of Thailand, the places mentioned in the following link are not recommended for travelling.' Earlier, in a post on X, TAT Newsroom had said that amid the ongoing unrest, seven provinces — Ubon Ratchathani, Surin, Sisaket, Buriram, Sa Kaeo, Chanthaburi, and Trat — are now not recommended for visiting. According to the Ministry of Tourism and Sports of Thailand, around 2.1 million Indian tourists visited the country during 2024, making Indians the third largest group of tourists visiting Thailand during this period. On Friday, the US State Department also advised American citizens to avoid all travel to the area within 50 km of the Thailand-Cambodia border due to military conflict in the region. Clashes erupted between Thailand and Cambodia on Thursday, owing to long-running border disputes between the two countries, dating back over a century. So far, as per reports, 14 people have been killed in Thailand, most of them civilians, while Cambodia has reported one death. Cambodia reportedly opened fire using small arms and heavy weapons, and the Thai army retaliated with artillery and later scrambled F-16 jets to target what it called Cambodian military positions.
