Peter, the thing some people may not know is Cajuns in South Louisiana are taught very young to love our neighbor. We grow up seeing our parents and grandparents help others - it doesn't matter if you're a stranger or not. We are here to help one another. Acts of kindness are very important to us. We love you and see you as family. We know we need each other. Each person we meet, we meet for a reason. Yes, there are exceptions, but for the most part, Cajuns have big hearts. We have and will rescue you (in a boat usually) if you're stuck/flooded, give you dry clothes, and feed you a good meal. Nothing expected in return. Do good when you can - that's Cajun. Have gratitude for the small things - that's Cajun. Throw a big temper tantrum and yell a lot when you've been wronged - that's Cajun. Work hard, eat a good supper, and pray before you go to sleep - that's Cajun. Keep going - that's Cajun. Thank you, Peter, for showing parts of Louisiana to the world. PEACE & LOVE to you and your wife!

Parents were born and raised in the states so all my family are there. Other then parent and siblings. It’s the same. Kinda lol I grew up in both Toronto and in cottage country. Even an island And I found as a child/teen it’s way easier in the cities. Not too much time doing nothing lol. I mean but being out in the beautiful county which I love. But in the city you are too busy doing what you enjoy. :). Good and bad.

I cannot fly anywhere for more than three hours flight time due to health restrictions, and feel sad that were I 40 years younger, I would have loved to visit these places.

Nope, this is NOT a portrayal of what it's like here in the USA. This video is seeking out the rustic, people living a bygone way. I'm 62, and I'm at a loss to tell you what the average American life is like. It's a very big country. A lot of people think the USA is chock full of carjackers and crime, but that's mostly confined to big MARXIST cities where anything goes. The rest of us live the good life, we mind our own business, commute to work, raise our kids, and pursue our occupations like fishing, hunting, sports, or trolling people on the internet. Life is really, really good here in the sane areas of America, which is most of America.

I'm starting to think the mainstream media don't care if anyone is watching. They'll still get their ad deals with the pharma companies and defense contractors. Why would a company want to pay for ads on a channel nobody watches, you might wonder. The ad deal is just a bribe to get positive coverage on the programs. But again, what's the point if nobody watches the programs? Well, people get their information online, and many online sources base their information on 'reputable consensus', which basically means 'what the mainstream media says is true'. Chomsky laid it all out in Manufacturing Consent, and while the model has changed to keep up with technology and Chomsky has become an establishment hack, the system he outlined is still going strong.

This area has really declined over the last 20 years. As businesses and industries disappear poverty increases and so does crime. It's sad to see how fast these towns fade away. I grew up in New Iberia. When I was a kid the old people still spoke cajun French. The buildings were kept up. Most of the businesses and industries were still around. Poverty was still a thing but not like today. People are really struggling. But there are still really good people around and even if they don't have much they'll still share, try to help, say hello or invite you in.

Peter, this is my first ever comment on KZbin. I would like to truly appreciate the depth and authenticity of your videos. Every time I see one of your videos about rural America, it fills me with nostalgia and emotions for a place I have never even been to. About communities and towns lost to urbanization. I am not even American, but I would happily take out a year of my life to follow your across the country on your travels. It motivates me to do the same with my country, India - which like the US, is often portrayed to foreigners as urban monoculture and stereotypes. There is so much authenticity outside the cities and it is sadly dying. God bless you for documenting it for us and the future generations to see and feel.

I want to thank you for these videos. At 71 years old, and a lifelong Cajun from the Eunice LA area, it is so refreshing to see someone come into our community and show the world the true heart and soul of this area, and its people. The reason I find it so refreshing (and is alluded to in the videos) is that for so many years the 'world' looked down on the Cajuns and the culture, because we spoke with strange accents, lived simple and unhurried lives, and most of us put God first and then family. Because of this (especially the accent) the 'world' viewed us as uneducated and unintelligent. Odd, right, since we spoke at least two languages when they usually only spoke one? My father, who became an educator and school principal, had a Master's Degree and his "30 hours plus" certification from LSU. He was one of those folks who literally had the culture "beat out of him" through the school system, yet he came back to that same system and worked with CODOFIL (Council for the Development of French in Louisiana) to help bring the culture back into the area. Once again thank you so very much for your videos. Not only of our area but all the many places you travel. I love learning about other cultures and you do an amazing job of exploring, explaining, and entertaining.

Lejeune was born in Point Coupee, LA (2 hours from the bakery). 1 in every 3000 people in France have the last name Lejeune (today) making it one of the most common last names. Based on this little information and nothing else, I'd guess that General Lejeune was not associated with the Lejeunes of Jeanerette, LA. But, this is just my hypothesis.

It's truly ancient and many of the graves are dated in the 1700s, yet I'm fascinated by the history of the American deep south. I think it's because those folks seem to have a real respect and connection to their ancestors and love sharing their stories. It makes history come alive.

I grew up in Alaska and moved to SE Louisiana is 1990. My job brought me through almost every small town throughout Louisiana and literally every small town in SE Louisiana. At that time there were still a lot of people who depended on fishing for a living throughout towns like Cutoff or Chauvin, Golden Meadow, Dulac etc etc Towns like Golden Meadow literally have a bayou going through the middle of them and boats in back yards home after home. However as time went on in the 90s and then later, bringing new regulations and tougher conditions to make a dollar the younger generations were having to rely more on working in plants or shipyards, than commercial fishing like their father or grandfathers did. This tended to cause them to leave these bayous towns and move closer to work in Baton Rouge or New Orleans. So this is a part of history that has faded and is still fading even more. Very cool to see it captured on such an intimate level. Dulac was an interesting town back then. Very small but the population were unlike Chauvin just a few miles away. Dulac had Indians there I believe. I was told about a tribe whose island washed away many years ago and they ended up in Dulac. Never really knew much about it but did notice Dulac seemed like a different people entirely. I'm sure now thirty years later things have changed. Thanks for the great channel.

Suspicion and avoidance? What?😂 I'm from Natchitoches, LA. There's a lot of crime in New Orleans. Outside of New Orleans, every single town and all its people are just like the guy who sold him the potatoes. If you needed a place to stay we'd put you up. 😊

Man oh man, I come back every once in a while to Peters channel looking for something new and interesting and he never dissapoints. South has been one of the most if not my favourite series. The transperancy, the flow, spontaneous interactions and people are amazing. Its always been a dream of mine to live in USA or at least go on a good road trip there and these videos just reassure me everytime what Im looking forward to. Greetings from Croatia! Keep up the work Peter you're the man!

Peter, I know I have said it before but I think it needs to be said again. Your work is incredibly important. If we believe what is portrayed by the media we would believe that we are so divided by by race, gender, and geographical location, that we couldn’t possibly ever find common ground. What your work continues to show is that this wrong on every level. No matter where you have gone, you find the same salt of the earth Americans, who are all striving to leave a better place for their children. Doesn’t matter if our cultural practices differ, we are all Americans, and large melting pot of good hearted people. Keep up the fantastic work of showing real America, and crushing the fake stereotypes that have been promoted by a rich class to keep us divided.

Writing this from Russia. Our media for decades has been trying to concrete the stereotypes about how bad the opposite people are. But in fact you see that regular people from outside the big cities are all the same: hard-workers, definitely seeing their own struggles, but keep being optimistic and so open to the strangers. And in the end of the day this is the people who carrying the whole country on their backs - and, as usually, don’t get enough recognition for that. Thanks for a trip, man. There’s been a lot of channels, but the atmosphere in your videos is so calm & pleasant! God bless 🙏🏼
