@@supernatural2029 I sure agree with you. The “woke” always have to hate on the “rube” white American…people are people. Viva la difference! Until one has gone outside of one’s home/hometown, you can’t fully understand another’s cultural difference. Go to West Virginia or the deep swamps in Louisiana and stay for a week. If you’ve never been where mosquitos are horrible, you’d never make it!!!

As someone who has lived and experienced both lives, I can confidently say that it is not ignorance that makes these people happy. I honestly can't say what is but even after experiencing the average American life, I was much happier going back to my country and living a life where everything seemed worse in comparison but in fact was much richer. Even to this day, I have dreams where I wake up in my families humble home, which always brings me joy.

As someone who grew up experiencing that similar simple but “harsh” living conditions and later had the opportunity to live comfortable in a first world country I’ll just say that I was somehow happier when I didn’t have so much and it was easier to have faith because there was no other option. I think comfortable living presents itself with the challenge of testing you, your values and priorities, “will you forget what life it’s about once you have more? “ it’s the question those opportunities come with.

My ex-boyfriend is one of 13 children from a small town in Aguacatan, Guatemala. He grew up in very similar conditions, where they had no running water, and every morning they would have to hike down to some river to get water to boil just to make tortillas and coffee, etc. They had to sacrifice their education to work. And when he got here to the United States, he was blown away. But after 10 years being here and getting addicted to a cell phone with 24/7 access to Social media and porn. I feel like it ruined him. I see this happen with a lot of young men that come from Third World countries.

Here's the thing: People in the western world think that happiness is linked to money, material possessions and career success, where as people from Latin America are happy regardless of what life throws at them. It is a mindset. People in the western world are often cold, distant and unapproachable. Latinos are warm, open and friendly. The western world should maybe slow down a bit and learn from this culture.

Living in that condition is one of the hardest ways to live and it is also one of the most beautiful. There's nothing like having your family always around. But trust me, these men are always working really hard to feed their family, I've seen comments saying that they are far away from the anxiety and stress of living in a big city.. they couldn't be more wrong... these men are the ones that end up crossing the border only to get better opportunities for their families and a lot of them end up killed by a rancher at the border shooting at them like if it was a sport. I'm not saying they aren't happy though, as I said, there's nothing like a united family living to care and protect each other, kids also grow up playing with their friends but also start working as soon as they are capable. Men in this situation tend to get depressed by their lack of possibilities of life improvement, a lot of them hide their depression behind a smile, because men don't cry, men work and feed families. Us who live in cities tend to ignore their situation only because we are blinded by our own aspirations to get luxury shit, while these men fight every day to at least have a proper bathroom. I wish our government was not corrupt so taxes could be used properly to improve everyone's situation. Thank you guys for coming to México and documenting your experiences, you guys are awesome and I hope you keep coming.

It is not that they're happy with the life they have, they are happy despite everything because it is not worth worrying about what you don't have. The only life they've lived is to ensure there is food and shelter, every nice thing they can afford after that is just a plus. They know there are better living conditions and they do everything in their power to get there but understanding the odds are against them they learn how to enjoy what they have, otherwise, you're leaving a door open to frustration and depression which can definitely diminish your ability to ensure the food and shelter they need to survive.

It's more about working together for a better tomorrow for each one.

An absolutely beautiful experience that you captured through this video. I was born American, but I have family in Panama that I have visited several times, so I had a similar experience as Liam. I used to stay with my extended family for a week at a time once every few years, so I got reexposed throughout my formative years. But not being able to communicate and learning about the bathroom/shower and the other amenities or the lack thereof was a significant lifestyle change. I love what your video set out to do and accomplish because I believe it did very well. First of all, Liam was a great choice of character to experience this journey. He had some beautiful critical thinking skills that led to outstanding questions. If I could help him answer his questions with my point of view and experiences, I would say that "Ignorance can be Bliss," But the American Culture heavily values becoming an accomplished and successful individual. In contrast, Latin Culture is more rooted in being successful for/with your family. Many people will bring up the value of family in Latin cultures, but I think something Brooke observed was the 'simplicity' the lifestyle seems to bring. When American culture has such high expectations to perform but not how to evaluate your performance, it can be hard to feel like you are doing well or that you are making the right choices. With that domestic setting, it is much easier to know you are doing good, hard work because you can see the benefits for your family. It can help foster a hard work ethic and be a soothing experience for individuals who are used to feeling overwhelmed with their day-to-day life or are uncertain about their future. I would argue that this lifestyle can lead to healthier mental health. So to return to Liam's question, I believe this lifestyle can be better for some people to chase. I hope people seek a lifestyle that brings them positive and healthy memories and experiences, and I think your channel embraces some of those values. So I look forward to your future videos and your continued success!

I love the sentiment of this video. At the beginning Liam was feeling sorry and dumbfounded by everything they go through until he realized the beauty of simplicity. This showed the difference in viewing what is normal. These individual don't see their lack of supplies or stuff a hinderence but they see it as every day life. It's not a problem to them as this is what they know. And in a way it's exactly what needs to be for them. While, I do agree that more money and resources would definitely be useful for these folks but they don't look at it that way. It appears they're content with what they have and are happy anyways. What an eye opening video.. cheers.

@@kathleencardincpm4435 I don't know specifically if he was suprised that they sing but how humble and efficient they all are when it comes to the kids having fun and the adults entertaining themselves. I think people understand that "poor people sing", but its not necessarily about the singing that is surprisingly. However, it's about the energy and effort put into doing such things that we as north americans take for granted. I just overall love this video.

It appears they're content with what they have and are happy anyways.". I'm more so loving the context of this video. It shows what we all take for granted in north america. I grew up poor so I understand finding the beauty in simplicity. It's just a humbling thing to see and be brought back to the basics.

Touching and genuine connection. Liam and the boy..priceless. Love what he said here…that simplicity and happiness is a mindset, not how much stuff you own. When I was a kid in my early years I would love to go see my grandparents in Mexico for two weeks in the summer. I would not have the things like TV with many channels ,in-house toilet, and malls, but I had my simple fun things like marbles, toy Top(w string), and cool Indian arrowhead treasure hunting! I witnessed my uncles woke up at 3:30 am to get farm, while my grandmother would be up hour early to prepare their lunches and breakfast. My biggest special time is “faking” I had lice to have my grandmother scratch for 5-10min my hair! I love and miss my grandma . My biggest regret is not seeing her find her younger brother( we’re split up into different families during the revolution). My grandpa was a talker. He had great stories that would keep you on your edge of your seat. No movies or Netflix , only wholesome family time…something I miss now with the hustle and bustle of life in US. My memory of my time there in my lovely Mexico were triggered by your channel..love you all for this.

This actually made me shed a tear.. or a handful. My family lives in Lebanon, i live in Denmark. Whenever i visit them and sleep at one of my aunts houses, my eyes open up a tad more to the reality of others. Lebanon does have functioning toilets, they just can’t flush toilet paper, so that experience is different ahaha. Most of my family there also work in supermarkets and other jobs that are relatively common in the west, but their living conditions and goals in life remind me closely of that of the family in the video. Beautiful people, children, mothers, fathers, communities and so much more beauty spread amongst those kind people. It brings me the same happiness as staying at a family members home in Lebanon, picking beans and making food in large batches. It brings me peace and appreciation of the things i have, even if i’m not the most blessed person with two cars or a big tv. I’m living a normal, great life that allows me to help my family in Lebanon financially as much as my paycheck allows. Thank you for this amazing video, God bless you all.

thank you man for educating more people about how other people live, I grew up in a community just like that, started working when I was 8 years old, needless to say I stayed there until the age of 13 when I move to Mexico city because I just felt that there was a better way to earn a living, I was pretty much on my own at the age of 13 until the age of 18 that I came to the united states and I know that I had to learn the language in order to get a better paying job, the next day after I got here I went and sign myself up in a English class, I was 10 years old the last time I was in school but thank God I learnt and 5 years later I got my GED, it may not seem like much but for me it was a great accomplishment, in 1985 I joint the united states army and I am a veteran of desert storm made it rank of sergeant, believe me when I say, you being spending time with the little boy is going to change his life forever as well as yours, God bless , sometimes we just don't know how good we have it

They were the most amazing and welcoming family I have ever met. Yes, their life may be called simple by us but their family was so full of love for everyone. Those and these people are what community really is. They are so beautiful in there caring. The world would be a better place if everyone had hearts and minds and big and open as theirs are

It's one thing to deduce what their experience of life is like, but can be more insightful to learn straight from their perspective. Maybe include a few more questions about their lives in future videos? For example even asking "es tu Vida dificil? Es deficil trabajar en Campo?"
