There is such a social bond that the Lao people have with each other. Breaking bread, having a drink. enjoying great food. You must be so happy that a new road is coming . Long overdue. Thank You for taking us along this fun ride. Sending you much love from Richmond, Va. Jim and Harriet

It reaffirms my faith in humanity when I see posts like this. Even “3rd world” countries with low GDP and low average yearly income, can find a reason to celebrate just being alive. Good food and drink, good weather, family friendly, local people (best behavior). Don’t believe the 💩 the media and elites are feeding us. These people are WAY BELOW any poverty level that exists in the US or EU. God bless them.❤️👏🏻🙏👍

Much admiration for you and Neenee Todd! I had been watching you a few years ago, but unfortunately I've missed seeing your videos for the last couple of years - too much going on and my dreams of long term travel to Laos with a Lao girlfriend in California USA just doesn't seem feasible, with her having a young daughter in school and her own small business. Still hoping to come visit with or without her. Anyway, I'm so happy that I rediscovered your channel and I've been getting immersed in your very interesting adventures again.

My wife's village gets their water from a spring a long way from the village and they have two large cement tanks above the village. The system was built by German Agro. Not sure if they are around anymore. quiet group but got the job done. This year during the floods in the north the piping was washed away. All the relatives, and thank God there are a lot of them, chipped in to buy new piping and they had to fix it themselves. All is well now. This is great every village needs water for home use. The mountains in Lao are a tough place to live but as we see here they are not down they celebrate life everyday. Thanks for what you do. It was nice to meet you at the airport the other day. will contact you when we come back. I have 18" of snow in my yard. Makes it hard to get to our wood. Only heat we have. Snowing now and the prediction is more for the next 10 Days. We never get more than an inch or two and lasts for two maybe. See you later.

Hi Guys Yes they are dangerous, as they don't take no for an answer when offering you a drink, at least you avoided the Lao Lao. One correction to your info about the Lao postal system. You can send letters or parcels to the the post office of choice with your your name, address and phone number on it. It is called "Post Restante", which you can use in any country around the world you are passing through.

That’s what I thought when I first moved here...but there are many great examples of people that clean up their villages. Plus the trash situation is not great here compared to other developed and developing countries. Basically there’s 1 landfill and not enough services to collect the trash. That’s just my two cents.
