Rainy Days Living in Thailand (embracing change in my thirties and trusting God)
Today, I navigate the rainy season in Bangkok, reflecting on life, purpose, and the journey of self. Living abroad has its challenges, but it also offers a unique opportunity to grow and find clarity. In this video, I share my thoughts on trusting God, embracing change, and seeking purpose during this transformative season.

Honey, you are MY PEOPLES! You hear me! The way you get so giddy when it’s thundering and raining and thinks it’s beautiful is SOOO ME! Everyone always looks at me so strangely when I get that way over the rain! Where are all my people who feel like this about rain!? 🌧️ let’s all unite here! 🤗

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

I LOVE IT!!!!

[@daizydayze9440]

Meeeee!!! I love riding my bike in the rain. Especially when it's storming! Not very safe or good for the bike...but I love it!!! Being indoors "cocooning" while watching nature party, is everything! I'm about it too.❤❤❤

[@tanyaparker776]

Right Here!!! When I have a particularly bad day, wine, candles, bubble bath then rain sounds while going to sleep❤

[@ntgetitgirl76]

Your mom has a beautiful voice❤❤

[@chanellsmith3204]

Mom has a beautiful voice. A true blessing 😊

[@cynthiaharmon9294]

I also really love the rain. It smells so good, it cleanses the Earth. I love it.

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

You and me both

[@angelabarnes3901]

I enjoy the peacefulness the calmingness it brings I Love the rain

[@ladybug7453]

Your mom singing praise music to you…What a beautiful moment🙏🏽💕

[@JulyMoon82]

I live in the Gulf Coast, and the summertime is our rainy season, too. I'm not the biggest fan of hurricanes. I don't know anyone who is. HOWEVER, I do enjoy the regular summer rainy days. It's so relaxing to me. I'll put on a creepy movie, either a true horror movie or something more family-friendly like Coraline. Rainy days are definitely perfect for slowing down and resetting.

[@MakingHomeWithApril373]

Hearing your mom sing was such a beautiful moment. It made me cry. My mom passed 3 1/2 years ago and that one moment made me miss her so much!!!

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

I'm sorry to hear about this loss 🤗

[@neveralone7]

The sound of rainfall is refreshing, soothing and touches our deep emotions, it gives me a reset and I sleep peacefully

[@maeevans1059]

Thank you Antoinette👋🏻😇 and Mama Denette😢. I love the rain too 😊 🙏🏽

[@bydeena]

I am Thai. I love rainy season too.

[@SamuelStevens-ff7wn]

I love these videos. Girl, i listen to rain and thunderstorms every night on youtube, otherwise I cant sleep. There is nothing more soothing than a real storm like that. so beautiful!

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

I'm with you on that. It's so soooothing

[@user-ko9kg1xv3i]

Rain and thunder relaxes me too! I love it

[@ritawoodfork3086]

I love the rain too! It can be soothing. All about snuggling in your favorite wrap, getting a nap or bingeing something good😊

[@callieduval3000]

Mommma went right into praise and worship love it I love the summer rains too it's refreshing and replenishing gives you time to reflect as well

[@keidrac]

When I’m restless at night, I turn on one of the rain channels on KZbin. I would love all that rain you are getting❤❤

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Love that!

[@raemaxey3401]

Your mother has such a beautiful voice!!!! ❤

☔️ RAIN REFRESHES ALL relaxing calming 🎶🎵🎶🎵☔️

[@Creatively_Tonesha]

One of the Best Vlogs from you. The storytelling and cinematography was 10/10. Keep up the good work. Your mom's singing was refreshing to hear.

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

You're the best! Thank you for this!

[@BubblesMcGhee]

Currently in FloriDUH in July, in a thunderstorm. I feel the same way. Soothing. xoxo

[@CarmenSola-q1q]

I’m close to 60! And planing to retired in BKK and your videos help me , thanks

[@childofgodsfavor6909]

Rainy days are the best. It makes us sit still sometimes to think or meditate. I have much appreciation for rain because it helps to grow my garden.😊 Rain is a beautiful attribute from God that helps replenish the earth more than a thousand ways that we can imagine. 😊 Thanks for sharing, and please tell your mom that she has a beautiful voice.😇

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

So true!

[@knt9284]

I LOVE your content! The editing and the music and your words of wisdom about life and your journey! Sometimes I tear up watching. We’re on very similar journeys and I love to see someone who looks like me living her dreams!! ❤

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Yaaaayyy! Thank you for coming by

[@tashas9531]

This was one of the most relaxing videos I've seen on KZbin. I have to subscribe! I love a rainy, thundering day! Thailand is one of the Asian countries on my list of places to move to in a few years. Thank you for this.

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mikemath08]

I have been binge watching your videos since last week and you’ve been a blessing to me. I decided a month ago that I’ll be moving to Thailand in Jan/Feb2025 and of all the videos I’ve seen seeing them thru a familiar lens has been everything.💙 I may have questions if that’s ok🙏🏽☺️

[@daizydayze9440]

As I sit in the beginning of summer here in California, I long for your rainy weather.😅 I equally love the summer and winter. Too bad the season's aren't monthly. Absolutely lovely video. I felt like I was there with you.❤❤❤

[@syckindahead]

Thanks for sharing your mother's singing in the vid. When we sing we pray twice🙏🏿 Last time I lived in a place with monsoon season (Tucson) driving used to concern me. The soothing sound for sleep though is top tier. #doinitanyways

[@paulettemoore47]

Rain and ocean sounds are best for my ears. #watersign

[@silviavlassis1787]

I ❤Mia , She reminds me of my granddaughter she's half Greek/ Philippino.. Beautiful girls.

[@lauraslanesvanlifetravels]

Living in Phoenix, AZ I understand being grateful and fully immersing yourself in rain and loving it! I agree about some of those deeper thoughts of yours about change and acceptance. In 2021-2023 I had to let go of 2 of the closest people in my life because they were too toxic...one on drugs, and one that basically just hasn't matured, and I feel I've outgrown after a huge fight that destroyed us being BFF's for nearly 30 years (10 of that with her also on drugs and gone from my life) and being disrespected. Like no , nohoney...not gonna happen....it has been a very long, sad and lonesome journey.... but now I got a new job, got a van and hoping to start my life anew...van life is my goal now or at the very least being able to travel and explore on the weekends...gonna see where it will take me!

[@jeanniepresley9520]

You have a great, beautiful relationship with your mom, and that is hard to find when you get a breath, mother.🤷🏾‍♀️if that makes since

[@TexasPinklady]

Your mom’s voice…❤❤❤

[@wilsonjeanne9]

You inspire me! I recently retired from teaching for almost 30 years. I am looking to relocate out of the US.

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

You got this!!!

[@kellonwheelz_66]

Girl! I used to love the rainy season too... Moreso, on the weekends since I had to go teach during the week. Thankfully, most days, it would only rain in spurts. Then, on the weekends, it would pour down rain all day on either Saturday or Sunday. We got caught in it a few times on our motorbikes, but I absolutely loved it!

[@mor_eri]

As someone who also LOVES the rain, this was perfection! Thank you for sharing it with us!

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

You are so welcome!

[@RUYINAETENGsMEDICDIARY]

I love the relationship between you and your mum. She has an angelic voice!❤❤❤❤❤

I love rain, especially thunderstorms with lots of lightning. 😊

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Same here!

[@Trillion0323]

Live in LA, and we never get thunder. Which makes me love them even more when I get to experience them.

[@shawnjones9829]

I can take the rain for about three days at the most, then I start getting the rainy day blues. Your mother's singing was soothing to my heart, mind, and soul. Thanks for sharing.

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Thanks for listening

[@janetmoore3003]

I absolutely Love, Love your Mother’s voice!! I could have listened to her song the entire video! And Girrrrrl!! If you don’t put a helmet on, on a Motorcycle! in the rain living your best life!!! Don’t make me come there and put one on you!! Lol You and my eldest child are the same age!

[@chasityschapter977]

Your mothers voice is absolutely beautiful ❤

[@nosizwemvusi5874]

Ahh the rain and the peace and joy!

[@janettetaylor5695]

Oh my goodness, I could listen to your mom’s voice everyday 😊

[@Randomlybold]

❤❤❤

[@monia1111]

More people order cars during the rain, so there is less availability Greetings from Hua Hin (3h away, but barely any rain here)

[@caroline9565]

I loved the rain so much when I worked I would take a day off on a rainy day…..

[@Mari-Ama7]

Im glad your in your element 🌧 🌦 🌂 ⛈️ ☔️ 🌩 🌧

[@khismet]

Across many different cultures, one common thread emerges - rain is seen as a source of blessings, renewal, and connection to the divine. Heaven and Earth embrace, giving birth to Peace. Its soothing sound and life-giving properties inspire awe and gratitude, reminding us of the profound ways in which nature nurtures the human soul.💧🌱 Enjoy Harmony and quiet words. Joyous contentment. Good fortune🍀🙏🏽 Namaste

[@gaylamangham1825]

Hey Antoinette, I enjoy watching your channel because whether it’s hanging out with friends, your mom, or solo you show appreciation for the life you have. It is calming. I enjoyed your mom’s singing also!

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

The sounds of rain and thunderstorm relaxes you so much. Antoinette Yvonne, your mother's voice is beautiful 😍

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@mademoisellecm1]

What a beautiful and inspirational vlog. Thank you for sharing this.

[@TheClassyHacker]

With you on that, love a thunderstorm ⛈️

[@kalidreaming]

💜💜💜💜 Sending love and light your way. Yes, rain is so cleansing and can be so beautiful.

[@cheryldurham6021]

Like you, I can find some comfort and peacefulness from some rain but because of the frequency of tornadoes here, I don’t really look forward to it. Your mother’s voice immediately took my mind back to my mother. Her singing always soothed my aching heart or made me smile when it was most needed. I love the location of your condo. I didn’t have that type of strategic location while in Seoul, Korea. The things I know now 😂😂.

[@mevans3291]

I love everything about the rain. Now I know when I need to visit Thailand! Nice video Antoinette!

[@OhBus-rx6nw]

Watched your storytelling, editing, and selection of meaning songs in your videos are awesome. Wish you happiness during the rainy season 🌧️🇹🇭😄

I do that every time it stops or doesn't rain

Enjoying the vloggs. You should try a juice with beets and carrots, together they work great for the skin, the body. Keep enjoying your life. Love and blessings to you

Beets? NOPE! A hard no. Lol. Won't do it

Hi, new subscriber here lol. I really admire you for moving out of the US, I'm looking to do the same but haven't decided on a location yet, and I don't even know where to start. I'd like to start my journey in 2026. I'm sure by then I'd know where I want to be.

[@gettingslim186]

the fruits over there is way more nutritious than the ones in USA; we got bill gates RUBBER fruits this summer -- have you lost any weight being over there? I lost 10lbs in one month eating my heart out, cuz everything was soo delicious!

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Lol Not Bill Gates Rubber fruits lol

[@truthteller313]

I know its more expensive and lot of people pick asian or Mexico, but maybe u need something more else... Europe, Italy ? Or am I projecting... Seems a little boring for a single person

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

You’re projecting…

[@Roseys_World]

Can we get a video of what changes you have experienced health wise weight wise after leaving America? I’ve heard several times about how food in America is bad and you will lose weight after leaving but I don’t see many videos on the topic.

[@MargaretLang431972]

I guess that is a lie that carbs make you fat

[@AntoinetteYvonne]

Its not a lie.. i just hide it well.

[@chantalhaugen9028]

Obviously, it's like that you have lost a lot of weight by working out hard.
