Do you believe in GHOSTS? Do you believe in the SPIRITS? In today's episode we are struggling with, let's call it "culture differences"... 😂😂😂😂😂😂 We are telling a real life story that happened during our busy and eventful high season. Hope you enjoy it! Remember to comment, like and share if you do!

I love how honest you are with your feelings about the cultural differences since it can be such a sensitive topic to many. Well done and all the best for your guest house and cooking class!

I lived in Asia for a very long time , Indonesia and Malaysia and Singapore . The ancient cultures in Asia are very in tune with the spiritual aspects of life . I have experienced these cultural differences . I fully embraced them , it adds so much to your life and understanding of the people. They will also be very happy with your acceptance. I think you are very lucky to live this amazing lifestyle . I certainly believe in spirits as well .

Oh my god…..I loved this video! I laughed so much because it made me think about when I lived in Port Vila, Vanuatu with my in laws who were Vietnamese and very strict Catholics but with a huge dose of crazy old Vietnamese superstitions thrown in. I’m sure my husband would only translate half of what his parents said because he knew I would get so frustrated if I knew the weird things they believed. The ghost lady story was so familiar as ghost beliefs were a regular “occurrence” in our daily life. My husband didn’t believe any of it but just went along with his mum to keep the peace! 😂 I love the way you mixed the older video with your “ goat curry” analysis! Brilliant! PS. Your brother is gooorgeous Mayaan. 🥰🤣

This episode was so funny 😂 I love how you took a difficult situation and made something so joyful and honest out of it. I hope I run into both of you again on Lanta in a few weeks 😊

Everyone looks so happy in Thailand….unbelieveable, every video I see these people look so sweet

I am from germany. I grow up in a non religious family and I still am, but I became very interested in spiritual subjects after I wanted to know more about what happend after we die. I got many interesting aswers. Now I believe we are all spirits having an experience as human beings. The univers is a mind or spirit or ghost. This is a very complex subject. But yes spirt is everywhere. You know it when you go somewhere and feel heavy or light and happy. It has something to do with the spirit of a place. The same you can feel when you are around another human being. Loved this video today! 😘🙏

Hi, I'm a Thai who spent many years growing up in the UK and USA and now I'm back living in Thailand. I do believe that if you made a promise to a spirit or a sacred entity, it is better to keep the promise (I guess no matter what religion you are, if you are Thai, this becomes a part of your belief) Also, Thais always make merit at the place before starting a business and also at the beginning of the year just for good luck , you know, it's the "better be safe than sorry" kind of thing 😂BTW, your brother is very handsome!!

You guys crack me up. Ok honestly I believe in higher power and so in spirit.. hopefully the host curry helps. Just believe in it!

Totally can resonate!!!!! We share this world, we have to learn to coexist!!!!

There is a lot we do not know and so much more there than we can see or grasp understanding of 🙏🏻💗 I agree with Mon. If it’s a simple things that creates happiness, just do it. You don’t have to analyze every single detail.

Such an adorable family! Here's hoping the cooking classes restart soon! 👍😍

Hey Maayan and Mon,You both are so refreshing and the content of your vlogs is very on point and down to earth - struggeling with spirits good & bad is very common in Asian culture, in Myanmar they call them "Nats", they can be very nasty ! I think it helps to make a cleaning celebration (with yum goat curry lol 😋)when you are blessed with Mon`s Mother presence and prayers, she has for sure a positive power, because she loves you both and she is strong ! Thy ! great sharing of your experiences and open conversation...btw. thanks God the man with the pacemaker survived, that was really a scarry and dangerous moment 🙏

You both are honest, so real and sincere. Respect to the acceptance on differences.

If both of you can generate dual income then don’t force yourself to help your husband’s business if you want the time and freedom to run your own business. Since his business is so good, I am sure he can employ as many assistants as needed. Then only both of you will be able to earn money in peace and harmony for the entire family. My spouse and myself started a home based business since 1998 till today so we have been through some ups & downs.

How is it possible that you both keep getting better and better. Such honesty, I feel like you are my family. So happy to be a part of the journey. Huge (ups to you both.

I love, love, love you guys!! You are so REAL!!!! OPEN and HONEST!!! You crack me up all the time when you guys communicate with each other!! It always comes out with love and smiles!!! You are wild and crazy funny people and it makes me LOL, which I need, so you need to know, you are healing people using angry-humor......I understand the problems are real, but your love and respect for each other always shines above all else! Have a beautiful day.... Sending Love and Light... Annie from Tampa 🤩🥰💖🙏

I've never laughed so hard!!! You and Mon have a marvelous way to banter. Stay that way!🙃

I am a very spiritual person from Switzerland following your channel. For me it s not about believing or not in ghosts. It s about whether you feel them or not. I definitely feel the presence of beings of other realms being around us. You can call them angels, spirits or sth else. They are around us and accompany us. So they need to be honored. Just seeing how you were all happy w this goat curry shows how spirits or energies can change in one moment of consciousness. Don t underestimate this state!

Spirits are real. Especially strong in countries like Thailand and Indonesia

you guys are pure honestly and love.

Love how fun unexpected things can come out of an undesired circumstance. Hope it gives you a perspective change and you can find appreciation in the slow, while generating enough to be content 💜

How wonderful to have a Dutch brother ! I love to see you and Mon together Mayan. You share such a good sense of humor ! Goat curry sounds good to me ! Enjoy your brother’s visit Mayan ! Blessings 💕🌷🇳🇱

Amazing video. Love your honesty❤🎉

I love that you both agreed to make lemonade out of lemons. I especially love Mon’s tactful way of explaining his thoughts and willingness to be impeccable with his word. Perhaps the disappointed staff and their low morel contributed to the challenges you were having? However, your desire to find a solution, for the benefit of all, was commendable. I loved this video and my favourite parts are when you 2 allow each other to be angry and Still respect each others truth & beliefs. K💕 PS: Bro is a hunk!👍💃🏼😘

Never lose the joy !!!! You are lovely people 💕💕💕💕💕

Such an interesting topic and insight into it... and so funny watching you together having these conversations, you had me laughing out loud x I definitely believe in positive energy and I like Mon's attitude to go with it...I guess if it is important to the staff their energy will be 'off' if these things are not honoured so it can impact the energy of the place and surroundings...Very sweet of Mon's Mom to do the blessing. I hope all is well xx

A man of your words..love it

🎉🎉🎉Great episode. I loved it. I love how the stuff cares for the business and participates. I love your humour and your point of view. I am German I am totally believe in spirits and blessings. I believe in the other realms. And I believe in taking action to get the website in order. I believe in good food and community. 😁

Love love love this episode ❤ I think is very important to attend everyone spiritual needs, especially while working as a team. It made everyone to feel more comfortable and confident. Mon is a great leader (boss) and his mum blessing was very special. The bad spirits are our fears and insecurities, it was fantastic to cook the golden curry to reassure everyone. Food never disappoints!!! Warm regards from NL ❤️

Great video....the question asked ...my answer...remain open minded.....because until proven we just don't know.

I think that bad luck sometimes is spread out over time and sometimes all at once. A great employer whether in a large organization or small business will do a “ culture survey” to see how their employees feel and what they need to do after a difficult period to feel better and then put the action in place. You both did that perfectly! Whether or not we believe is not really the issue! Your response was perfect!

My heart was jumping out of my chest while hearing the story about your guest who had some problem with his pacemaker . It is really scary. Thank God everything is O.K

Really enjoyed this video!

This is a very old episode but it finally made me really love you folks. You are such nice people! So human. So humanistic.

Looking forward to this as always guys. Just watching Ryan and his videos and he mentioned going to Lanta and meeting some KZfaqrs and, of course, you guys immediately came to mind then next video and bingo. That was awesome. He is an amazing guy, so interesting to listen to and a fantastic find as a friend. 🤩

Cultures differences demand patience & a sense of humor which you both have! Now..where were you hiding that GORGEOUS brother??😂💖 you have an ace in your pocket with him, I'm sure people will flock to 'GREEN PEPPER' just to see that cutey on duty!!..in the meantime we send our positive vibes your way for continued success!! your fans from DE USA

Maayan you are the most patient person, wife, Mother..x your are amazing

Yes things go wrong sometimes....I think it's great how honest U are.....it shows how honest you are ....that's good for business....

Hi I love your channel. We invite a Shinto( Japanese original religion ) priest to pray before we build a house and a building, open an office and a factory in order to avoid troubles, accidents and failures. It is not what we believe or not, it gives us some sorts of relief☺

Love this video❤

Oh hell, ya just go with the flow... if they believe, then make them happy and peace will abound. 😉

Excellent video, both of you are a match made in heaven. Embrace whatever you can as you live in thailand there are cultures and stuff to understand and probably its way of life there so good on you to fipnd a solution and follow through for the betterment of the staff and your good self. Since i know this channel i really lobe your videos and always im eager to wait for a new episode. Just cant wait for more videos from you both. Salute Mon and you, its really not easy so the only way to go thru all this is to be so upfront about how you feel and let it out and love one another more and more. Will keep you all in my orayers to and hope you guys stay safe always.

Yes i do believe in spirits, but i think this spirit was called SEO (search engine optimization) 😉 love your little story here ❤️

I believe in both Ghost and Spirits. Respecting all cultures is what I believe in. I live in America and I see the cultural differences. I am so impressed at how fluent you speak Thai.

Yes I believe,I do not follow any religion but have more Buddhist beliefs! I LOVE you and your family ❤wish your vedios were longer !!!! Love your content and how real you are !!!!

yes cultural differences is there but embrace it and follow the flow

love this episode

Hi Maayan and Mon, this is a very interesting video. I'm raised Moslim culture but also baptised at school Roman Catholic. I don't believe in ghost but there are good and bad entities and yeah spirits. What I know from both religions is that for new things in your lifes, new job, birth of your kids, a new house, business etc. we have to pray for blessings and succes. So Mon your mother is a strong Moslim believer and it was very good to involve your mother to pray for your wellbeing and family. Hospitality is a people business and everybody has their own "things, spirit or energy" that can stay or hanging in the rooms or area. Therefore after check out and thoroughly cleaning is good Mayaan/Mon to put your positive energy into it with a simple pray. Mon you can ask your mother for this. They have prayers for anything,when you are in trouble etc. Don't take it for granted. Very good of your staff to bring this to your attention. Believe me I say it again with my 40 years experience in this industry I know what I'm saying. Please take this experience in serious consideration. Not everybody has a clean mind... and it doesn't matter what kind religion you believe to pray for blessings. Maayan with your excellent IT skills please check how the reservations of Mon's Cooking class suddenly disappeared. Thank you for sharing this. God bless you🙏❤

You guys are the best 💖 if I come to Thailand again I will visit you at your guesthouse and also Lily at her restaurant! Love Thailand visited a few times on Ko Samui but never Ko Lanta

Beautifully 'evolved' pros & cons, ups & downs, your business(es) family turnarounds. Keeping the thoughts on the daily grind to level of "halt". Starting back over with repetitive deep breaths & a space of forgiveness on the spiritual light side of life ..... (listening to the sea waves rolling in, rolling out 🌊🏝️). ✌️☮️

I think you dealt with this situation in the best possible way, you surrendered to it!

Love you guys❤

Awesome video! Spicy goat curry makes everyone happy!! 😊

Happy Monday. Love you, guys. You always make me smile. I always like and share. He had a pacemaker, maybe. Scary time. For you all. Maayan. Your life mirrors mine. Always the force and boss in the house. No offense Mon. 🤣😆Blame no one is in the wrong. Life gives us lemons. Make lemonade. You two work so well together. Hard-working. What makes you so angry. Haha. You two make me smile. Love, Mons mums blessing. I think we all make our own way. What gives someone comfort or support. ~Do what makes you feel good~

I am Muslim from Morocco and believe that God only can help us. Send you lot of love

You guys are so funny...and blessed.

Beautiful video Mayan👌🏼 ...I like the way you make videos so natural and can't find any fakeness in them...I don't know much about how to make videos in KZfaq but I really love your videos and feel I am with you all and enjoy being the part of your family and place....as for your question I don't believe in ghosts but believe in good spirits not bad ones 🤣🤣🤣 both of you handled your situation very well and getting the blessings from your mother is the most important thing leave aside ghist/spirits and religion. ..being a good human being matters the most

You guys are fab😂😍love watching your videos - I’be been to Koh Lanta twice before but I want to bring my partner there and if we do- a stay in Green Pepper is a must for us for sure ❤️🫑🫑🫑

I really like you and your family, sending you love from the UK.

your videos are well thought out and professional 👍 keep it up

Haha I feel you! We gonna Tam boon baan next weekend and gonna have 9 monks coming to our house! 🏡 I don’t know if I believe in spirit/ghost but they told me it will clean out the old energy from the people living here before us, and I believe in energy so that sounds good to me. And also we will have food ofc and Dam’s big family will come so I think it will be a nice morning 😅

Oh I love you and your beautiful family 😊😊

The staff have good spirits they are the one's who bring good energy to a workplace..... staff do have headaches etc.....things do go wrong in any business...we meet people and say that person has a good spirit.( like you the owners).. we live in a world of cultural difference and we can embrace them or not..and that goat curry looked tasty and well worth the tine for a meal and $$ ... I do believe in spirits it's a feeling I have felt when meeting a person or walking into a building etc.....I love your channel

I really loved this episode . I find that the two of you are so funny together great that you can have a laugh over a difficult subject religion and belief. I am a non believer but you know what it doesn't really matter what anybody believes in as long as they are happy and living there best life ❤thank you again love sweet life lanta ❤❤

And your kids are adorable!

Enjoy ur vlogs. So hilarious 😂 😊😂🤩🤗🥳💥💫. From Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Aloha.. I love your family… GOD BLESS this beautiful family.. you always make me smile. Looking forward to your next vlogs … Aloha

“We are spirits having a human experience.” Lead and live with love and peace and wisdom: stand firm when required; bend when required 🙏

At least Maayan you have a loving and supportive husband Mon. God bless you in your ventures and may you stay strong always. Thank you for sharing your life there..Love from the Philippines .

I agree about the spirits….100%…..offering food will go nowhere, prayer for protection is a spiritual solution to spiritual problem.

You two are SO funny when you are annoying each other!! 🤣 It did sound stressful though during the height of tourist session. At least you can look back and laugh about it. Yeah, I think it was a good idea to serve up the goat curry…..you never knowwwwwww!👻

I believe in god I pray to him ‘ thanks for the video guys

I believe there is a higher power and everything in divine timing enjoy your rest time together as a family

Must've been so stressful.....one thing is get your first aid .....that's a big help.

There is a spirit.😊

Its good spirit content too , i like you both , may god-Allah bless you both n family

I like this episode, you are so honest. Business is always hard and difficult. I do really not believe ghost, but spirit and faith yes. The scene with Mon’s mother and handsome brother around family, friends and staff was wonderful and heart touching. You both made it, the business is going to right way, fighting ! Best wishes, happiness, success and healthy kids ❤🎉💪👨🏽‍🍳 watching from Germany 🇩🇪

I NEED a Part 2 post goat curry catch up!

The world is made of energy and if you believe in something that makes you happy you can put good energy into the world which will make the world a happier place. IMHO

🤗🤣🤣🤣I'm a superintendent for 9 floor building ...mostly elders so yes I so understand 🫂 things always happen ...👍🏼🙋‍♀️🤣🤣I work 24/7

Spiritualism is the gateway to nature.

Of course I believe in spirit but I had the very same question as Mayan… religions get mixed up… and I love that!

I dont believe in any of the existing religions. I think they are all man made. But im spirituel and believe in The unknown that we cant explain. The Great mystery run by an unknown superpower. I think buddhism is The closest to me. Its about enlightment.

Hi love video and how honest you guys are yes I do believe in higher powers and remember my grandmother yes when u built a new foundation or any business u should do something religious like blessing this place and giving thanks Mon could offer simple prayers I do believe.

This was seriously fun. And Yes. I do believe that spirits exist among us. We have the good and the bad. We have our family in heaven who look after us, we have guardian angels. I have had loads of proof they exist. Every religion has it's way of appeasing them. All we do is respect that and be one with the Universe. Stay blessed guys. ❤

I believe ❤in Jesus but loved the way mon handled it perfectly

Yes.. I believe in spirit, Jinn and ghost. There are good ones and bad ones too. These paranormal activities does exists..

I prefer to give to the needy, i think the spirits understand that, however i pray for them, that they will be in the Light. Peace and Love to All ❤

Muslim do believe in others spirit sush as jins, devil and angle. But to do offering for help or bless is a syirik sins. Ask help and blessings from one true Gods only...i think it a mixing culture & religion in southern thai Muslim community...same as here in Malaysia

I only believe in the loving spirit of Mayan and Mon as a couple and parent as they progress in this journey together. The only other spirit that I believe in is fear. Fear only exist in the anticipation of the unknown.

gotta love Mon with that remote-control action to shut you up 🎮 just joking Maayan, you two are amazing in your own way.

I feel people and understand their spirit...I get messages from people passed ... Simply put everything is energy...our loved ones might be gone on earth ...but just waiting for us to communicate with them...within ourselves...not a big song amd dance s...

Yes, I believe in many forms of energy: plant, animal, rocks, water, things and, oh yeah, people, too. Not everything exists within our capacity to see or touch "it." There are multiple dimensions. .

Blessing the place... in Malay means doa selamat.

Patience is a struggled virtue 😊 when annoying takes place ..... ✌️☮️

Your brother ❤ very handsome!!!😍😍😍🥰

For me, I believe in spirit whom protect the place. But I do believe in the ‘goodness’ , willingness and respectful if we do everything right and reflect on our respectful which can feel the calmness.

It's more about the energy of giving away that will turn back to you .. 5000 baht every 6 months won't do harm instead it will make blessing and if its up to me I would give some of that goat curry to random ppl in street as well for more blessing ..

❤
