0:59 those fruits are Thai melons. When they are ripen ready to eat they are soft like honeydew and taste close to cantaloupe. Thai people eat them fresh with sweet coconut milk.

Thank you so much for showing us around Rungtiwa’s family homestead. It’s a wonderful life to have there. I do believe as you that it’s a great life for the twins to grow up going there or even living there and experiencing the farm life. Your world is settling down and the future will be so much better with Rungtiwa and her family to share it. ❤

[@RickyIsaan]

Lots of fun times ahead

[@KRABI_PT]

Great video mate. I used to like the old rural videos by the lake and stuff. But looks like you have another rural place to walk around when you like and chill. Especially with that sun shelter spot to have a seat in. I’d love to sit out there at dusk and watch the distant lightning shows. It’s fantastic the way your fiancé’s family have taken to you. Fantastic farm.

I love watching the storms in the distance too mate. Appreciate it mate

Beautiful farm Rick, Rungtiwa's parents might not be hugely wealthy but they will never go hungry. It's going to be a great location for your wedding. The way the twins were looking at each other at the end makes me think they are starting to realise they look the same? Take care mate.

That one plant was an Okra. There are a lot of older people running farms and gardens here in the US. My mom ran her farm until she passed at 83, and I have a huge garden I tend to at 64, all in the desert. It's called extreme gardening. My daughter stays at a place in Thailand, where she gets to go out and pick her breakfast or lunch, and they prepare it for her.

[@RickyIsaan]

Very true!

[@glenloader639]

Your average Thai can't make enough on just farming, that's why a high % of taxi's and motorbike taxi's drivers in BKK are all from isan. Many young Thai's don't want to farm as it's very hard work and very little profit.

[@RickyIsaan]

Yes Glen. Not sure I said people can. But it can be a good percentage of what you need, plus it's 2024, isaan has pretty good internet, lots to do

Vietnam hat is the best design because for cooling because it does not sit directly on your head, but above, allowing air to circulate whilst keeping you shaded. That hat you are wearing would be so hot.

[@craigdawson7632]

That place looks mint 👍👍 With the rice, is it just easier to manage compared to high profit crops? Also all the soil you see in the videos looks like packed down clay. I never see compost piles, or cover crops being tilled back in or mulched, rarely ferment brewers. Does the heat make it to hard to do that stuff? To make the ground black rich and loamy

[@RickyIsaan]

Not too sure. Could be more to do with the amount of rain and rice being such a staple in almost every meal here in Thailand
