What's Life Like For A Foreigner Growing Up In Thailand

[@asiaexpat62]

Great interview, even better than with his mom. As one who has lived in Thailand (on and off) since the late 1960s I can truly appreciate Aaron. It was very interesting that he understands provincial folks so well (I whole heartedly agree even though my family are Bangkokians.) I can remember how genuinely friendly I was treated in the small villages of the Northeast 50 years ago and now in my village in Bangkok. Pete, your work is really fantastic in finding these interviews.

[@deshalos4695]

Your so wright.. I love ❤️ his interviews

[@tomgodheart4557]

Same Same me so true dude

[@thinktwice4227]

I'm Thai and travelled to countries as well (America, Aus, Nz, East Asia, Europe). I feel related to what Aaron said about Thai people. They are super kind, playful, polite and friendly. I always tell my kids about this and teach them to respect all Thai rural people who are so honest. I'm glad that Aaron is Thai now cause he is so playful, sanook ka.

[@orchid1229]

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@cocow.5753]

Aaron Frankel had the best sum up about Thailand and its Thai people. 🐘🐘🐘

[@sunchildtine]

we as audience have got to thank Aaron for re-doing this interview. Pete, the old photos of each guest will add depths to your interviews. it keeps their stories relevant. this way forward please, if they can still find it. photos & stories the best combo.

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks for the feedback

[@juthamatbirwari659]

As a Thai person I’m glad to hear Aaron mention about how Thai education has to be improved. Interesting video need to see more from him. Cheers!

[@gordoncraig7344]

Sitting across from all these high energy characters is the prize for your addiction Pete Aaron's another infectious one indeed.

[@Eman-rt3ro]

I really enjoyed this interview. He seemed like a genuine guy who appreciates Thailand and makes it a better place for all.

[@ThairishTimes]

Absolutely

[@jejuden3000]

I wish we got a longer interview

[@elevatorshoes]

I met Arron when he was still running Groovy Maps. A real funny guy.

[@jimmyjames4jesus]

Great interview. Be great if they were longer. I bet he have so much more to talk about. 1 hr would be great. Plenty of meat to digest hehe. Thank you for doing this. Awesome shhtory🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤠🥰

[@mangoking787]

Hello Pete, this interview was brilliant. When I hear of westerners that have made Thailand their home makes me very jealous. When I first went on a holiday to Thailand in 2000. I know that Thailand made me mellow. The reason I am saying this, is the Thai people made me what I am today. Their smile and their politeness is something I have not seen in other countries. That is why Thailand is closest to my heart, and makes me venture there practically every year.

[@ThairishTimes]

Fantastic, Thailand is magical

[@ThaiStyle]

ขอบคุณที่แบ่งปันเรื่องราวครับ

[@martinhodgins1677]

Another great interview Pete. I actually preferred Aaron's interview over his mother's. He has confirmed a lot of things about Thais that I kind of had in my head but wasn't sure. These interviews are so insightful and are far more than what twenty years of being a 'two-week-millionaires' ever could.

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks Martin, i’m glad you get value from these interviews 👍🏼👍🏼🇮🇪

[@acrpthailand3843]

Enjoy listening. Great talk.

[@ThailandThomas]

Aaron is a very cool, smart, funny guy! Great video Pete. KZbin is addicting Pete. Making a video hoping the view counter spins. I always look forward to your videos!

[@johnsambrook1108]

Amazing interview and Aarons down to earth grass roots conversations is one of the best i have heard in any ex-pat/Native forums about Thailand in 27mins lol. Both his mum and he have lived pretty cool lives.

[@apn222]

Great interview! It's really enjoyable and interesting story. Thanks Pete and Aaron for sharing your thoughts about Thailand. ขอบคุณมากๆ ค่ะ 🙏

[@sirsa000]

Great interview, great guy! I think it's my favorite interview of them well. Good job Pete, you really bring us great content. Also at 15:27 he gave the perfect answer at why I keep coming back to Thailand and why I love this country so much!

[@ThairishTimes]

I know what a great answer

[@Knbhgcomng]

Such a great interview. Thank you

[@eugenemanzi2834]

Always balanced and thoughtful questions. Enjoy watching all of vlogs and consider your techniques professional and improving with experience. Thanks,keep on producing. Eugene

You are very welcome🙏

Another video I almost missed..thank you ..thank you…will miss the Thai chats…

[@Darryl_Smith]

I still have a Groovy map lurking around and recall my first impression when I bought it. Really good product with a fun twist. Now I can see how it came about which is a true reflection of its creator. Thanks for talking to him.

[@dannyp7548]

Thanks

Great interview, should do a part II

[@ponbounket8057]

Thanks for sharing!

[@kevinreily2529]

Awesome interview, Pete. Aaron has a wonderful, friendly, playful, easy going attitude. That is Thai, love it. Living in Thailand teaches you patience, it really doesn't matter if something takes a bit longer. Enjoy life.

[@ThairishTimes]

Well said Kevin 👍🏼👍🏼

Oh Pete! Thank you, love love it 😊 Aaron's so natural, everything he said was so true and he made me chuckle. Would love to see more of him🤞( as well as Beverly). You've made my day Pete and thank you so much. 🙏 (one of the best interviews 👍)

..both are equally good.thanks.pete.

[@ThairishTimes]

Really glad you liked it Oy

[@jimreynolds1540]

More, More, More, of this guy please! Awesome interview Pete. My favorite one yet. I kept checking the time-line-bar in hopes there was more time left. He has got to have some real great stories (insight) of Thailand. Such a cool perspective from a farang who actually grew up there. Thanks!

[@andysmith9786]

Another top interview Pete......Just shows its how you bring your kids up and the lessons you teach them are transferred into a good person..... I watched from start to finish

[@karenk3593]

Pete, the intro to this video is your resume for a TV interviewer job. I'm telling you, you're amazing at it. I don't know what your new sales position is about, but, I could see you as very successful doing this for a living on a network making the big bucks. Great interview. Thank you.

[@ThairishTimes]

Thanks so much for this vote of confidence ☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@karenk3593]

Thanks Sam

[@Piyawat1985]

Thanks Pete and Aaron to having a good video for repeat it once and as a Thai people we are very happy to hear that people like Thailand, like to learn and try to speak Thai. Congrats to Aaron to have Thai ID that I heard that it is not easy and we like people who love Thailand and want to stay peaceful in Thailand attempting to achieve Thai ID as Aaron. 🙏🙏🇹🇭🇹🇭👏👏😁😁. Most of Thai family and My grandparent and family also moved from China and now our age and generation is Thai people.😁😁

[@davebull5379]

Really found this one interesting Pete. When I consider moving to Thailand in future (not soon) at an age where the kids are still below 18 this really provides amazing intel.

[@ThairishTimes]

Glad you liked it bud

[@zoe9632]

Thanks to you both for your interview. The key thing I've taken from his & his mom is that westerners are never really accepted by Thais in an intimate/connected & long lasting way. His mom said that her Thai female friendships were limited & that the Thais were only around in the good times & not the bad. To me, this signals lacks depth & that would be unsatisfactory long term.

[@graceextra3595]

Another amazing interview. Fabulous revelatory, honest and insightful. Aaron comes across as a genuine person who sees value in people around him.

[@ciroamore2129]

what an extraordinary human being!

[@terencegraham8414]

Interesting guy. Amazing story and life some people have. Cheers.

[@shoshi06]

Nice guy! Great interview..thx

[@michaelpaterson732]

" that kernel of play"... Love it. I really would like to live in Thailand.

[@alanmcmanus1]

I think a cool video would be filming this guy speaking Thai at a local market and capturing Thai peoples reaction. Many farangs speak Thai but none speak it with a clear Thai accent.

[@ThairishTimes]

That would be a cool video for sure

[@sunchildtine]

@@ThairishTimes ah, a day in the life or a day out with Aaron video would be fantastic. then we get to watch his actual interaction in Thai. take him to the local shop & restaurant.

[@Ned88Man]

there are falang who speak it with a clear accent for sure, just hard to find.

Great interview Pete. Now we need Part 2 , Please!
