Hi Todd, any idea when the live broadcast will be?

Hey Todd Neenee & Mina! I love the "open air" markets; fresh and unpackaged. Visiting my paternal grandmother for the first time in 1973, was treated t this experience by accompanying cousin's multiple times daily to shop for each meal. There's also the personal interaction with the vendors. Mina's such a sweet child. Not a problem with the quantity of your videos; prioritize your health. Will still follow the channel. Pay someone for the upkeep of your property! Not worth jeopardizing your health; no pain or discomfort. Should be using compression leggings if not opting for surgery. Loving everything you and Neenee do to give Mina a better future and life. Comical that you're introducing Neenee to Western colloquialisms. Hahahahaha Love Mina's funny side; is she getting taller or is it my imagination? Everyday life videos draw a interesting perspective into Laotian living and culture. Funny how I asked about her height before you commented on it. Stay happy and healthy

Love the local content I grew up in a time where we had outdoor markets and mom shopped at them most of the time. We had local small grocers also that mom would sent me to for something she forgot. I remember when they opened the first grocery store. Dad and I would stay in the car and listen to the news. I miss the open markets.

[@graemeaylward8313]

As always Todd, a very good vlog. I do like these daily life videos and as it takes less work and helps to make your right hand better, I am all in favour. The markets and local shops which we use here in Khon Kaen remind me of my childhood where everything was local and community based and you can try before you buy. I can still remember the first help yourself shop in the small town which was only a shop, arranged so that you could take a basket and select your own goods. It was called PayandTake and caused quite a sensation as people felt it was going to take away the personal touch of the local shops. How right they were! I remember having to queue up at Elizabeths the bakers shop at 7:30 a.m. to make sure that I got the 2 types of loaves that my mother liked, They were a Sussex and a Large Bloomer, and woe betide me if I gave into temptation and picked a bit of the warm crust! The hardware shop was like an Aladdin's cave to me as was the grocery store with all its tins and brown bags etc. Butter was in a huge block kept on a cold marble slab and the grocer would expertly cut off a piece and use wooden butter pats to shape it into a rectangular cube, wrap it in greaseproof paper and weigh it out. It would always be about 1/2lb. Similarly with cheese, it would be cut as a wedge from a whole round of cheese. A lot of the shops were still lit by gaslights. Anyway, Laos and Thailand are a bit like stepping back in time, apart from all the motorcycles and cars!! Yes Mina is growing fast and being so active she burns a lot of energy so a better diet is doing her the world of good. Sorry, I've rambled on too long! Keep them coming, young man. God bless you and keep you all safe always. 😀❤🙏

Open markets are very competitive and you have a wider choice than a supermarket. If you don’t like the quality or price of one vendor, there are others to choose from. You don’t get that with a supermarket. I have several indoor farmers markets in my area. Always a pleasure and treat to see Mina in action.❤ Take care of your video editing hand. Cheers mate.

I hope Laos never changes its wet markets. The produce and meats are so fresh. I miss that so much where I live now. I used to go to the market and get fresh tilapia for 250 baht ($6.50 USD). The guy would butcher the fish on the spot for me and I would grill it with my (also) fresh-still-moving giant prawn shrimp. On the weekends, I would get fresh snails and cook them with a Thai curry sauce. Why can't I get that kind of fresh seafood here when Laos is a land-locked country with no access to the ocean?!?

Hey Todd, I agree with you about your varicose veins. I have had mine for the last 30 years and have had them treated some years ago only for them to return over time. The only problem they give me is discoloration due to iron staying in my lower left leg. It looks dark red and ugly, but no real issues and get them checked every year. Cheers mate

[@NowinLao]

Yeah, what do they say.. if it's not broke don't fix it. As long as they're not troubling me I'm not bothered by them. Funny story though.. actually had another on the same leg just above the knee. Jumping into the river at Vang Vieng I slapped the water hard. Must have busted a vein because over the next coupla weeks I had the filthiest bruise there ever, going from purple to black, then a dirty greeny yellow colour. Once it cleared, so had my varicose vein. No longer have it there and hasn't come back. Do you know how many times I've been jumping into rivers now trying to slap my lower leg!?😆

[@robertmcquade6251]

All right I've gone down the rabbit hole looking for the origins of "shit eating grin!" LOL It seems to have appeared in literature in the 1950's with one theory being that it derives from "shingle-eating grin," which was used 2x in US military write ups during WWII. Shingle-eating grin derives from eating "shit on a shingle" which is what GIs called chipped beef on toast. My proper mother would never allow us to use this expression, but we used "Cheshire cat grin" in it's place :) Questions: 1. Are you marking on a door frame Mina's height every six months? This was such a common thing to do in the US in 1960s and 70s. How much has she actually grown since September? 2. How do you fill your gas tank on the extended road trips? Do you carry a jerrycan of extra gas? 3. How do you decide where to go on an extended road trip? 4. Are you thinking at some point that Mina's family will realize how much farther ahead she will be then her brother and want her brother to have the same education and advantages that she is getting now? I know that the agreement is for you to pay for his education, but there's a huge difference between a village education and the one that Mina is receiving in the city. 5. I can't wait to see Mina's reaction when you travel to Australia! How will she process being the "foreigner?" How huge and clean everything is! Will you have her write/draw/record her day each day? It will be a priceless souvenir. 6. Do you have to pay duty on the beanies and other things that are mailed to you in Laos? 7. Do you have planned schoolwork or activities for Mina during the summer so that she keeps learning? She is such a sponge soaking up everything! I think you are pretty damn lucky that Neenee allows you to drive her brand new car LOL! I love the daily life videos - especially if they are around the 15-20 minute length. Perfect for watching while taking a break. But I also love the longer format adventure videos. So glad that your wrist is healing. Bette Davis quote, "Getting old isn't for sissies!"

Asia would lose half of its charm if the outdoor markets went away and would lose a significant amount of its “community feeling” if they went as well. The bonus to using a western supermarket is that it is consistent in quality + availability where as that is a con in Asia. However the benefit of the open markets in Thailand is too many to list…. my favourite being that the farmers can sell direct to the customer by-passing most tax. The sellers do a pay a hefty amount to open their stalls in those markets though relative to their profits.

[@davidnorton7464]

Back in the West we used to have local markets with locally sourced products that weren't vacuum packed. Meat that didn't have chemical and preservatives to keep the shelf life longer. No Maccas on every street corner and plaza food court. People could grow their own produce and take the excess up to a market and trade it for other sellers stuff. When you see the first 7 eleven or Tesco pop up in a town - you know it's the beginning of the end for the local market. Not the most progressive idea when you consider the diabetes and other diseases so prevalent in Western society awash with junk food

Google says : As documented by the Oxford English Dictionary, the slang was first used in literature in 1957. There are two theories of where the saying originates from: One is lowering the person with the smug grin down to the level of an animal, stating that they have no sense of social norms. The other is to refer to the the freaky grins of coprophages (people who eat fecal matter) in ancient Rome.

Not only are the the local markets convinient. its a big part of the local community and economy. if everyone shopped in the big boxstores it would be less jobs, more expensive and all the profit would would go to some probably transnational corporation while te local farmers gets screwed. its been outlawed pretty much most of the west. everything needs government approval and certification and tax stamps. selling raw milk and meat gets you arrested many places.
