Life with a Cambodian Deportee - GONE FISHING (Episode 1)

Like my videos? Consider buying me a beer! ko-fi.com/saviyou
My uncle was deported from America about in 2015 and is currently living in Phnom Sampov, Battambang. In this video series, I'll be living with him for several weeks and documenting what life is like here in his village. In today's episode, I've just arrived back to my uncle's village and today, we'll be doing a little fishing and then hanging out with some of his friends from Oakland, CA.

Your channel is staring to catch fire. Notice what kinds of content the people like and run with them bro.

[@saviyou]

People seem to enjoy this content with my uncle and his friends in Phnom Sampov

[@ericd2983]

Love the life at countryside no fancy no much technology just simple. People are kind and shared.

[@steevsuos1196]

Love your adventures especially when you are showcasing our homeland! Keep up the good work and have fun!

Putting up good content lately bong! Thanks for sharing..

[@charliek6371]

Savi i appreciate videos. American born khmer here from long beach. Watching videos has made my khmer become more fluent theres words and sentences i had forgot to say but when i watch your videos i remember what they exactly mean.

[@saviyou]

That's good to hear! I'm learning alot from just being there only 2 months. Even editing the videos, I go back and can really listen to what people are saying.

[@DigitallyNomad3949]

You are American born Kheme? Sorry to say your English is very poor lol🤣

[@eroslabel1586]

Excellent video. This is the life I am looking forward to soon...peaceful. Love the way you sprinkled in a nice tribute to Master Kong Nay. 🙏🙏

[@KennyEatsWorld]

Thanks for showing us around the village Savi. That looks like a delicious simple bowl of pork porridge at the start. Looking forward to seeing more life at the village.

[@TheAucbared]

Just came across this channel. My mom's house is between you and Wat Boeuing Raing. I recognized the "mountain" immediately 😁

[@MustBeNice20]

Rest in peace loc tha Kong nay. What a legend. Nice video bro like to see the villages and the way they live.

[@sopheakchey5905]

Countryside living is eating what you catch.. I would like to live that way one day.

@@vyprak9433 tell her I said “hello”

[@sinitsen9265]

It’s near my home town cheers.

[@DigitallyNomad3949]

America has such a brutal policy toward deportees. I know a guy who work in the U.S for 40 years and he is now fighting deportation because he has a domestic arrest record 27 years ago. What's really fucked up is the fact that they will stop paying his social security benefits if he is reported. How would he survive? He's never worked anywhere else but U.S. To me that is a fucking brutal. If they deport him, at least don't take away his benefits since he had worked for it.

[@longmann6466]

Hey Savi, whatever happens to your family back in the States? Why are you living so far away from your loved ones?

[@khmerorchidyoung3445]

I would love to leave the states also if I didn’t have children here, life is better in srok Khmer, more affordable than the American and more safe! we have so much crazy things going on like racism and gun violence just too much things that don’t make sense to live here!

[@longmann6466]

@@khmerorchidyoung3445 I'm sorry your lived experience in America has not been favorable for you. I guess we all have our separate realities no matter where we live on this Earth. People in Cambodia wish to settle in America, while some people from America want to settle in Cambodia. It is like rain water coming down from the sky. Some perspectives consider rain is bad to them, while some perspectives consider rain a blessing for them to have water for drinking, washing, cooking, cleaning, etc. I would never trade America for Srok Khmer at all. Thank you for your perspective.

@@saviyou oh nice. You can find it imported locally, right? Also, is there only one Oakland crew? 😇✌️

[@moo8008e]

Great video. How many months out of the year are you in Cambodia filming?

[@saviyou]

It just depends how busy I am in the US, but usually I'm there 1-2 months to film and then come back for awhile.

[@jejudo3000]

Do they want to go back to Canada?

[@saviyou]

nah, Ta Nganh was telling me they offered him to return but he said he rather stay in Cambodia
