This trip is epic Todd, thanks for taking us along mate

[@chrisperkins7331]

Hi Guy's What an amazing part of the world you have reached, truly the the top of the world. When you look at the road conditions, and look at all the development that there is, you have to wonder how they actually got all those materials up there, and the price the locals would have to pay for all that extra freight cost. Great footage as always, and amazing courage driving on those road in 2 wheel drive.

[@paulcleary7437]

There’s a great Aussie saying “ if it’s flooded floor it” 😂

[@johnmurray6501]

Hi Todd, great show as always. The information is orally handed down through the generations. The Indigenous Aboriginal people of Australia, did this for over 60,000 years, wrap your mind around that!. Keep up the good work mate, 😋🖐👍.

[@Aquatravel-g5x]

I think this is one of your best travels; so far, The scenery the interaction of you and the people/animals' just nice. Scenery is stunning camera positioning great and the green whiskey. Hope to visit Laos again.

[@costasworldofmusicmemories5792]

Hey Todd, I'm surprised you were still standing after having a swig of that green whiskey. The diverse landscape of Phongsali is truly amazing. Be Safe and Stay Healthy on those roads. Sending you Best wishes and Happy Travels ! Jim and Harriet. 🙏❤🙏 Richmond, Va.

[@donnastapleton7812]

That was amazing. I love your photos Todd What a beautiful part of the world that most of us would never experience if you didn’t show us 👏👏👏

[@SV-du2pf]

Awesome trip up Northern Laos, Todd and Neenee. Amazing video series, beautiful scenery and every town/village you guys go people look very happy and friendly.

[@carolrampling862]

What an adventure! Beautiful viewing Todd and Neenee, thank you for it. Touching tribute to your Nan at the tea farm. Loved the black and white stills, as always, and clever going into the colour at the end. Quality 👌

[@mtnmandeluxe5429]

Hey brother,,, spectacular,,stupendous,,amazing! Great vid bro! The Stones,,,one of my all time top 5 favs. Best use of this song in a movie,,The Big Chill from 1983. Friends gathered for one of their friends funerals,,and one of the women sat at an organ and played the opening notes of this song. Was perfect. The country you went thru was amazing,,kind ,friendly people. The tea trees were cool,,the green whiskey process was amazing. I was struck again by your knowledge of plants. Maybe you and my Dad can start a garden and plant store,,call it "The Old Man and The Aussie,,,,Bush masters "lol interesting building style up there. Cool place. Thanks Todd Ttyl,,,Marlon

Gday mate - still catching up sorry - again I can tell this place is special in your voice - things are still raw here I’ve also been fascinated with Tea , I don’t drink coffee and been to quite a few plantations in China . Seems very vibrant and great people - luv the jungle roads - small 🐕 - whiskey 🥃- cheers Todd 👌👍👋🙏

[@johnmurray6501]

Just ask, the Todd and Mini brothers, you make me laugh heaps, Cheers big ears, 😂.

[@dalejuhl8591]

LOL "There's no roadside assistance.." Umm good, because up there, there's no roadside. I would so love to just go there and explore for a year to take it all in - absolutely beautiful country side, gorgeous views friendly people -

[@Jordy120]

That triggered some memories Todd. Nice touch at the end mate. Glad to see your Black & Whites.

[@NowinLao]

Mate that stuff is lethal! 😝 Cheers John

[@ralphkehrer6136]

Another epic story. Dig that green whiskey bottle deep in the ground and don't touch it until I tasted it. That face when you downed that "sip'🤣

[@rusty-n4o]

great vlog

We saw this in Myanmar many years ago. Women carrying buckets of stones for road construction in the beating sun.

[@NowinLao]

Thanks Tèo 😁👍

[@michelejensen7420]

Super interesting video… especially the green whiskey village and factory. Loved your series in Phongsali. What a unique and fascinating Lao town. Love the history. We’re watching you from the U.S.!!

[@Disgruntled_Ex-Hippy]

60% would be 120 proof - somewhere between Wild Turkey 101 and Bacardi 151. Very different method of fermentation and distilling. Very interesting. Thanks Todd

[@BrianMax]

What was the elevation of that tea plantation? I live at 4200 feet, but would probably be puffing and wheezing up that hill too. I'm not telling you anything you don't already know, but There are some beautiful women in Laos, like the girl you asked for directions. I need to go there, get a couple bottles of the green liquor for my brothers-in-law back in Da Nang. Keep making the great content!

[@Maoli2013]

Your vlog is quickly becoming my favorite. Thanks for taking us along. Aloha from Hilo, Hawaii!

Looks great I miss making liquor with my mom using rice

[@ewengillies9826]

A couple of bottles of headaches from the factory. Needed says can't drink it all .. pulls faces shakes head and promptly finishes it up. A true wine n beer taster .. lol. Such nice friendly interesting people Todd. Got the references mate. Bushyboy Oz.

[@lyradm1]

They are such gentle and friendly people. Just love your travels.

[@nengvang9163]

I would love to try the pure whiskey that you nag Nini drank. The green whiskey color that is made from the bitter melon leaves that you and Nine saw while the man chopped from the hands. All the pure whiskey is good for cooking with squirrel meats, goat meats, sheep meats and lemur meats. But my recommendation to you that don't drink that strong alcohol while you're operating a machine because the road condition is looking bad shapes.

[@johnpaulwebb3440]

It's amazing that the dogs don't bark, would be a great breed for dog lovers in the city.

[@andrewparkinson4717]

When we come back I want to try the green whiskey!!

[@billydong9640]

Wooooo hooooo Whiskey * hands Todd his empty glass and watches his latest creation in anticipation * 🥃

Todd, it looks beautiful! There’s no way I can make it to the top of mountain. 😅

[@5ayes12]

Thanks for showing us this amazing country..As for that green moonshine what is the normal use or frequency of use is it just available after harvest or do they pour it on their cornflakes everyday is it only a party or festive thing etc. Anyway cheers I hope to be getting some Lao dirt on my shoes within the next year.Keep up the amazing work kudos for the nice editing and those B&W stills which absolutely rock

[@hmooblauj9527]

Where is your restaurant located...will definitely stop by to try that green liquor when im in Laos again.

[@Bad_Karma1968]

[@gordon7260]

I struck up a conversation with a thai lady in a coffee shop in Newcastle , spoke of youtube and that I planned to go to Laos this Christmas, she said watch Now In Lao, I said I did, she said that you Todd are from Cessnock. You crack me up with the Aussieisims, I wonder what the British or Americans think about that 5555

[@NowinLao]

Ah god love her.. what a legend 💚

[@jamespunch8049]

Drink it Neenee drink it!

[@douglasrussell5098]

Since you are an Aussie. I imagine you have tried ouzo. How green liquor compare? Stay safe.

[@lmapicas3279]

Not sure about Alby Mangles better ask the Leyland Bros but damn bro I forgot about Alby he was a bloody legend mate

[@spongesurf12]

@21:55 I was saying “Todd, you’re muted” but then realized you haven’t been living the world of online meetings for 3 years. 😂 @34:20 Neenee looks pretty tuned up after that green whiskey!

Yeah.. rookie mistake there. Editing stuff up 😟

dude don't knock it until you've tried it on my first visit to south east Asia I came across a construction crew out in the jungle. being a farm boy I jumped in boots and all to give them a hand. at the end of the day it was time for refreshments. they drank the same rocket fuel that they ran there tractors on , it's something I'll never forget for the rest of my life.
