Village Life in Thailand - Breakfast + Massage in 100 Year Old Wooden House!

🔥 Thai Fire Chili Noodles - • Eating SPICY FIRE NOOD...
Welcome to Ban Na Thon Village (บ้านนาถ่อน) which is located in the Nakhon Phanom province of Northeastern Thailand! It’s such a relaxed and chilled out village, near the Mekong River. We stayed at a local home-stay with an Grandmother in a wooden house over 100 years old. In this video I’ll give you a full tour, walk you around, do some activities in the village, and eat breakfast - and take a shower!
The village is beautiful, people are so friendly, the food is delicious, and also what’s cool is that this Ban Na Thon Village (บ้านนาถ่อน) has developed its community tourism, offering opportunities to stay in the village and learn about the culture.
We had an amazing stay, and I would highly recommend it.

I love how you show us the traditional way they locals live . that's why you have such a loyal fan base. No showing off and no unnecessary opulence.

Thank you so much Coco.

[@OutboundShane]

Some travel vloggers makes it all about them, but this guy does the opposite and shows off the amazing places and people. What a great channel.

[@charliot101]

[@PRSer]

This is the part of Thailand that most people never experience. It's the old traditional way of back to basics life. I'm all for modernisation and technology but sometimes going back to the simple ife gives you perspective to life that makes you appreciate living much better

[@MarkAbroad]

Fully agree, and so much we can learn.

[@krizsun789]

I love that even though you showed the room of the grandma you didn't actually went inside. You could've just asked the grandma to barge in there (like others, just for the content 😏), but you didn't. That's total respect in there.

[@let_uslunch8884]

That was respectful to me also not to have a filming team traipsing through her bedroom.

[@nurjahanlogde1815]

Yeh We aswell don't barge into anyone's room specialy in our son's and daughter in law's bedrooms unless the son or the daughter (in law) asks us to enter it is purely out of respect.

[@Justsayinbruh]

I swear, Mark can talk about old beat down crack house and make it seem like luxiourious mansion. The positivity vibes are there!

[@kofiagyei6195]

I swear!

[@janetpoline4360]

Mark respects everyone.

[@AwesomeFish12]

A bit of an exaggeration, but he certainly has an enjoyable enthusiasm that makes the videos more fun. Most of the places he visits speak for themselves in how fascinating or beautiful they are.

[@Justsayinbruh]

@@AwesomeFish12 nope no over exaggeration here. It's more of a compliment

[@someoneanyone884]

Mark didn't care if the toilet had a flush..he was there for the experience n thats y ppl respect him so much

Could have been more traditional, they had a western style sit-down toilet, and not the squat down variety, although I'm sure he's familiar with both.

I'm from Esaan (a nickname for this region). My husband was born and raised in California and has worked in technology industry all this life - typical 30 something yuppie. When I took him to visit my family for the first time, it changed his view on life a lot. In his own word "people don't have a lot but they are so happy."

[@ParkAry1407]

I really like that you show us the way the locals live. It's such a great experience, you're truly an Thailand ambassador, promoting real life

[@christnastubbs1603]

I look forward to your videos every week, Mark. They’ve opened my eyes to so much. I know that food is a huge part of what you do, but the way that you interact with and respect people is so inspiring. You’re truly making a difference in my life. God bless you and your family. Blessings from The Bahamas! 🇧🇸

[@anna2sablan383]

Mark...I really appreciate your style of fooding and vlogging. It's not just about streetfood and food tours...its about the people and how food brings them together. Please continue. These videos mean so much for many. For me....your videos remind me of my grandfather...he was my best friend and we made the best memories in his kitchen. Listening to him share his stories of the old days while he cooks us kids traditional Filipino meals that just warm the soul. Thank you for really sharing what these foods represent. It's more than flavor. It's what culture, traditional and home should taste like. Keep up the excellent work. You help bring the best of us back out again. Thank you to and your family.

[@frankmacleod2565]

Mark I rarely leave comments on your pages but just know that I watch and love all of them. You are my favorite food vlogger. Mikey Chen, Trevor, Sonny.... you have stiff competition but you remain my favorite. My best to the family.

'Chili in the morning is a must' - I like it. Mark, it is so good to see that you are still so grounded and continue to enjoy the simplistic lifestyle. This is one of the reasons why I keep coming back to your channel. They way you portray the basic way of living around various places in Thailand is inspirational. One day I plan to explore the beautiful Thailand your way.

[@Jayapullani]

It appears a pleasant and open way to live, fresh air passing through the homes. There is a similar but smaller house an illustration of this built in one of the Biomes at the Eden Project in Cornwall, not far from where I live, and a typical family garden with vegetables/fruit growing.

Humble simple life is easier and I bet way cheaper. No waste. Some ppl cannot adjust to such but you do. Important thing is family health good food and less stress of living. You adjust well from USA to Thailand. It was nice to see a segment on your dad as well. I see Thailand thru your eyes as I will never be. Able to travel all over like you have . Fun videos real videos and your so appreciative of life and great that you go with family. Maybe some day put out a journey thru your eyes where you have been pics foods friends and life in Thailand according to mark. It would be a nice coffee table book. I mentioned a months ago perhaps covid inhibits your travel to explore local Thailand parks etc and you have done way past it the cottages out in the water over looking the land was nice.
