I was growing up in a small village like that. At middle school, I had an American teacher from Main, and her name is Jen( Jenjira). She stayed in a house like that but it was not abandon condition. She was always drink Pepsi bc she was worry about drinking rain water. One night, my school had a party . My friend and I got to stay overnight in her room. That was the time that she showed us her home pictures in Main. I would never think that I will get to go to America. I feels so special to be with her in that one night. She was the queen of the ball party and she brought balloons in the room. We laid on the futon on the floor and she laid on her bed. The balloons were up on the ceiling. That was one of my best memory and you, Joe,remind me of that. Now I live happily in the US with my Thai -American family. I am lucky to get to go back to visit my Thailand family very often. I miss Thailand all the time. Life is amazing and wonderful but sometimes you have to stay very far from your Mother land. Thanks, Joe. PS: I know you from Kuhn Mark food video.

Not once have I ever written a comment but after watching this video I’m truly touched by your raw emotion and felt the appreciation you had and still have for this place you called home for 3 years and especially those you have come to know over the years. So many times people in the States and a few Thais make fun of those who visit or move to Thailand to escape what ever they were running away from with little or no regards to this special country. You have shown the world how Thailand, this small town, the school, the aunty and the place you stayed can be a beautiful place if you are grateful and are respectful of what is given to you. Joel, Thailand thanks you. You are a beautiful human being.

I am a normal guy! Without God's grace, I am frustrated, foolish, without hope... ok those are big words, but honestly even day to day (while living in this town), life could get so crazy that sometimes it was OBVIOUS (and such a gift!) to be able to see that without hope and faith, I really had no chance whatsoever of making it through those days. So in this way, I say God made it actually EASY on me by living there - because I then needed to exercise my faith almost every day! :)

Nyob zoo Joel. I am so happy you had a wonderful day and was also to meet the sweet staff again. I can tell that you are a wonderful teacher. The poem written on the wall is so true because when you have the passion to reach your goal, anything is possible. Li is so beautiful. Happy Holidays to you and family from us here in California.

Good morning from Texas Joel and Li, Great video and the tour of your old house was a memory of yours and now ours to. It is a eye opener for many of people that take luxury for granted, because I have been in your position in my life time and I worked hard and the rest was left to the man up above. The food looked very tasty as well and it's always good to see old friends. Well Joel & Li you guys have a great day and stay safe and happy, until then I will be looking forward to your next adventurous video. Bless you Joel and Li

Home is anywhere your heart is. Adversity often tests our strength, and helps to give us appreciation, and build character. That house is actually still better than a lot of places people have to live. The fact that you still respect it as your former home, and appreciate having it when you were there, speaks of your character. You see the sunlight, even on cloudy days, and take the lessons to be learnt.🙏 On a side-note, I grew up having geckos coming into our house in the night. They creeped me out! I love iguanas, but scared of them, and all other lizards...🥴🤪 I understand Li's fear, especially since she is not used to them. You are an honorable person, Joel...keep that spirit. (Wrote this just halfway through and posted, and then right after you talked about your appreciation for your home...then met the caretaker! You have me in tears. You are a blessing Joel!🙏)

Oh my goodness, Shush. I took time going through your message, and NOW I just read the end... I could give you a big hug right now, it is.... it is just so special for me now, here, years later!, to think that this can bring tears to the eyes of people getting to know me through this KZbin channel. Wow. It is incredible... dont even know what to say right now. THank you for taking the time to write me, and share your experience, AND you are totally right - this house is still a GREAT house, I had nothing to complain about at all! I knew it, I still know it today, but yes, you are totally right :). I still was BLESSED with so much!

@@JoelsTastyRide Big hug right back to you, Joel🙏 I understand you not knowing what to say when people express appreciation for the person that you are, because I am often embarrassed when people do that to me. I find it very difficult to take compliments, but can deal with criticism very well, because I know that I have to work on myself to improve something...but compliments throw me for a loop...lol... That being said though, I had to let you know how I felt, and how much I appreciate the APPRECIATION THAT YOU show for the country, the culture, the traditions, the people...and the humble circumstances that you were in... You are sharing your experiences with the world, but more importantly, you are sharing your SELF...and we need more examples of good people in the world... Thank you for being so open. Thank you for being the person that you are. Thank you for leading by example. And thank you to your parents for whatever foundation that they laid down to help guide you to become the person that you are today. Your gentle spirit, and the gentlemanly way that you conduct yourself...especially towards Li...is absolutely beautiful. Much blessings to you both🙏
