I really enjoyed the neighborhood, that coffee name almost had me choking🤣🤣🤣> i love Daiso we have one in Richardson Tx. Those meals were a great deal. How is mom?

[@TG-hf1gx]

Daiso here in Japantown, San Francisco, CA too🙋🏾🌉

[@latreces464]

I arrived in Bangkok almost a month ago, in the Siam/Chidlom area. Haven't been to Thong Lo/Ekkamai yet so thanks for the video! I hope to run into you in these Bangkok streets!

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Hope you enjoy it!!!!

[@t_unique888]

Oh my days, her food looks delish 🤤🤤🤤and all that for only $10. Let me get my ish together and be on my way to Thailand asap.

[@ntgetitgirl76]

Wow, all of that food for like $10 I need to move!!!!

[@MsQueenB]

I love your neighborhood hood l! As I watch this I take a 2 min manifestation and vision this! Thanks for sharing!

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kalidreaming]

Thank you for doing the tour. Also to help revive your plant, you can soak banana peels in water, and then pour that water into the soil. It revives your plant and brings it back to life.

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Bananas DO NOT step foot in this house. 🤢 lol thank you for the recommendation though my dear

[@TG-hf1gx]

Yep! That banana peel hack works🍌

That hot pot restaurant is so dang cute. I hope you dine there and take us with you. I love hot pot. Since relocating to SE Louisiana from Northern California, I do miss having a Daiso close by. Daiso is such a good little store. You live in a great neighborhood. Edited to add, those meals you picked up from that lady looked absolutely delicious and divine. She seemed so sweet. The price that you paid in incredible, too! And everything you picked up looked like it had some type of veggies added to it. My God what are we doing here in the States??? I totally understand why you have no plans on returning to the states full time. Love your life, pretty lady! I am here for it! Also, I loved the inspiration you found in watching Eat Pray Love so design the life you want. Please know, what that movie did for you YOU are doing for us.

[@TG-hf1gx]

I'll send some Daiso if you can send some gumbo & beignets! 😂😂😂🙋🏾🌉

[@mdlim24]

Ekkamai has so much good food.

[@tonyajohnson3450]

Here is a good idea, research what kind of jobs you can get there for someone who doesn’t have a business or their own what kind of jobs are available for an American who wants to live there can get, at the moment I work as a caregiver but obviously I don’t have to do that I am a great organizer and I clean well other thens I do to of course but that could be a good topic to talk about.

I had a made in China 50 -cc once & I loved it! In 2014, I think I got 50 miles for $3 (usd) in gas. And in NC you didn't need a license or insurance at that time.✅

Hello 👋🏽 Antoinette that fresh food from the lady street vendor looked so good 👍🏽. When I was in the Navy I was stationed in Okinawa, Japan in 1994 . I picked up a few phrases which I no longer remember 😥. You are your mother 's child , you stole her face 😂. How tall are you 🫵🏽? Take care God bless 🙌🏽
