    I think that you have hit on the essence of the local life of ordinary Thai people. It's not about the cheapness, but the adventure of local life. Keep it up!🌞😎👍

    I take the local bus often and when convenient, AC or non-AC - and do feel the flavor of local life. Most amazing to me is the person who accepts bus fare - it's not easy to maneuver among the bus riders on a crowded bus while balancing as the bus is moving - hope this job never goes away. Often this person will help bus riders carrying a child and belongings & shopping goods - to get up into the bus from the street side or to disembark from the bus, climbing up and down the steps of the bus - while other bus riders will give up their seat for a person carrying a child, belongings & goods. Sometimes, the bus employee will offer to carry the child up the steps and the bus rider will handover the child without hesitation - and the child will have no problem being carried by a "stranger". The honest, trusting, and courteous nature of regular Thai people is simply amazing. Thank you Chon for this Vlog of everyday life of regular Thai people. It is worthwhile to note that bus system is improving - some bus stops have an electronic information board showing bus numbers on the way to the bus stop and ETA while newer buses are accommodating handicapped riders. Thailand IS trying to improve and it's great to see.
