Hi Guys Thanks for coming and recording the nuptials and farm progress. So a bit a feedback on some questions/comments that were posted. The lease project has some issues that are making progress difficult. The weed that is proliferating is a project for the future as to why it grows in some places and not others. Poisoning it is not a good idea as the poison then contaminates the drinking water, which is probably why health systems around the world are collapsing due to the massive increase in the general population’s poor health. My theory as to why weeds (plants we can’t eat) grow is that it is nature’s way or repairing the soil. The pond has catfish in it as opposed to tilapia, because it is a hardier fish.
High salt water will kill those weeds
@@krisbrand354 You are correct, however it would also kill everything else as well. I think it is better to find out why weeds grow, instead of just killing everything that nature creates that we cant monetize.
@@chrisperkins7331you’re a smart man! I agree with everything you’ve said! Using pesticides on everything hurts the earth and polluted ground water. The huge corporations are ruining our earth and environment. But they control all governments so nothing will change, sadly.
I don't know how you find these incredible new people (the engineer). What stories they have to tell. You are blessed with an innate ability to find the most wonderful stories.
Chris is into everything with a wealth of knowledge and experience
Nice Video! the wedding culture so beautiful!
Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼
Such happy people. Happinesx all around. Lovely. Thanks for showing.
Cracker... Chris gets my vote on the dance floor... he's a man overflowing with ideas and knowledge... Lao or Thai weddings are the best....
Great video, Todd. Good to see Chris P. again. I really like seeing and hearing about all the changes the farm takes over the season/year. It was good to see Chris B. again in your recent videos as well, nice guesthouse he has in Luang Prabang. Nice to meet Bob as well I'm sure he's got a few stories to tell about all of his experiences throughout Asia. Wonderful celebration all around and congratulations to the beautiful couple. 🙏👍
Enjoyed the fun, lively wedding, especially the dancing. Congratulations to the lucky couple! Good to see Chris's land coming along so nicely. The pergola with the blackish pumpkins is especially pretty and unique. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks again Todd for taking us along with you on your travels today. Say hi and sprink-ler to Neenee for me. Nice seeing Chris again as well. Cheers mate.
It's always great to see Chris at the Homestead. He has a work history that is amazing . The countries that he worked in. My late father worked all over the world working on an oil tanker.
with a similar background. Bob is a character. Love him. Todd, what is the significance of wearing a red shirt at a wedding for the men? Congratulations ! to the wedding couple.
May they be blessed with Good Health. Thank you, Todd, for taking us along. All the best. 🙏🙏 Jim and Harriet. Richmond, Va.
It is just the theme coulor the woman running the show chose, for close family members.
Wow... It is good to meet old friends in a lively atmosphere on a wonderful occasion. Congratulation to the beautiful couple.
As soon as they started walking down, clapping and singing I had a huge grin on my face...totally sucked into the moment. All smiles a wonderful, but the Lao smile gets me every time. Cheers Todd.
Great video very interesting very great group of people. I enjoy watching your videos. I look forward to retiring and maybe moving there to find my ever after lady I hope great job keep it up.

Chris , family & friends have done a massive job in creating a beautiful setting for the big day - lots of everything - great footage Todd 🍻👋👌🙏👍
🤗🙏🏼!
Loved the video, good seeing Chris again. Good size wedding, it’s nice and cozy that way. That tool for pulling out the roots reminds me of an old fashioned can opener.
I click “Like” before I actually watch the videos 😉
Take care and have a great weekend.
Very interesting story from Bob
Great dude and going well
What a lovely tradition. Cool Venus fly trap.

You were made the posture falang, i've been there as well 3 years ago with my friend from Hungary, a really enjoyable job to do for the family :)
Amazing and very enjoyable
Great video Todd. I also loved the music at the end of the video.
That is a dream I have in mind, When I retire, live in simple life,

Most enjoyable Mr. Hales
Congratulaions to the couple...
Really well done videos mate. I've been watching a few today and you guys do a great job
Thanks Kris.. glad you're enjoying them mate 😁👍
that English bloke and his farm strategy was really interesting
great video , Todd..a big tanks to Chris.P and his family for letting us into your life...thanks once again🙏🙏🙏
Cool mate nice video
Wow what a beautiful day. Enjoy your . 🙏
Amazing wedding, luv the culture,. The pommy blokes interesting, haven ago , that tree that fell the wrong way , scarf was cut out on the wrong side 😂 . I think nee nee wanted to stay at the wedding but as in your video, western people gotta plan ahead , and gotta go 😂 we are set in ourselfish whinging ways, lao people opposite, very polite and respectful.
I married my Thai wife in Ko Samui by a Loangpa and many Thai Buddhist monks sat above us and chanted and such. I bought them all expensive gifts and we gave them to them after the wedding and it was in a Holy Temple by a river coming off the mountains. Two people were there one was a woman who was Thai and the other was an English or Australian chap who happened to be there before we arrived and said they were thinking about it but wanted to see our marriage which was very nice. So we had nice bystanders to wish our wedding well, how cool. I am now 66 years old but look young and my beautiful Thai wife is 54 and looks great but she is working day and night at a Japanese wholesale in Nakhon Sawan where I hardly see her until very late at night, sad me, trying to buildup money for after I die, which I hope is not for a long time, I have been here for 22 years and love it, Peace, and Love
Lao weddings are a heap of fun.
In Laos most beautiful ladies are in village..
Brilliant !
Thanks, see you and Pet for Pi Mai
This is a beautiful day. As for you and Neenee🌹, you guys clean up well.😃👍👍
Congrats to the newly weds!
Another good Perkins video! That dude has some innovative ideas. An interesting guy.. there were a few good looking women,,lol but for wife hunting,,I think I prefer the Hmong villages. The old English guy made me think of a retired spook,,M.I.5 I think is the agency in Britannia. Hope the weekend is good to ya,,Ttyl,,,Marlon
Absolutely. The engineering was no doubt his cover. 🤣
Wow! Chris is so innovated! He needs to share his wealth of knowledge to the locals there. Bob had an amazing work/life experience. Yes, simplicity of life sounds lovely 😍🥰 ❤
Thanks for taking us along 👍
Yes simplicity is the trick .I am working with the locals and will make sure they have accesses to the homemade feed and other tools of the trade.
@@chrisperkins7331
Thank you on behalf of the Laotians 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
💯🔥💙👍
I had a great day! Thanks for bring us all along. Fun time! :)
Any time! Thanks for joining us 😉👍
I love your videos I see you have a problem weed there that is common here in Australia. We call it sensitive weed. It is common where there have been cattle but it is easy to control. I use 24D or MCPA. It is a little slow to react but it works and wont harm your lawn. These chemicals are broad leaf killers so be careful around other plants in your yard and don't spray on a windy day. I hope to get over there one day and have a beer with you. Take care mate from North Queensland Australia.
Wow you look neat!
Planting fruit trees and flowers on the fence and keeping bees for honey is an easier job and less tedious.
We do have some fruit trees, such as avocado and mango's, but the family wants to plant rice and cassava, so that is what we do. The market for fruit is not that big, and the animals have to be feed. If it was not for the animals I would have to buy someone elses poop to fertilize the fields. The main aim is to see if we can reduce imputes to zero as that is the goal. As for bees the local bees are small, so do not produce any honey you can eat..
We have those plants that close up when you touch them here in Louisiana USA as well. We call them Touch Me Nots.
I got scratched by one of them, tiny scratch went manky and I had a job getting it to heal up. Evil killer plants 🤣
Great video. Chris is a weapon. I wish I had the same get-up and go attitude, and I'm half his age.
I was fortunate to be born to a Cockney father who all seem to be full of beans.
Nice ladys😉
Nice video, The music is so loud even my speakers are vibrating. 😂
casave trees i have harvested in suriname wel i call that a tree
Very nice
beautiful dress beautiful lady
Yes people in Laos more happy In The states to casino.
Nice wedding and Chris is looking very strong and really into his farm. Neene is going to get a sprinkler when u return. The engineer is living it up. lots of diversified crops on this farm. Boy, I hope I can make it to Laos in 2024. early in the year. I love your videos keep up the good work u do ty
Jalannya aspal merah
I bet that guy a huge sum for this wedding. Not to mention price paid to family. Now and forever.
He needs a talapia pond . Amazing amount of fish out of a small pond
We use cat fish as they are a hardier fish.
Even the wedding on red dirt. Gee so much dirt in that country
The fruits can be sold when in season.
Love your videos. It would be nice if you could put the name of the village and province where you film. Sorry for my bad English😅
👍🏻😎❤️
We call that thorny weed Sleeping Grass in Hawaii
Hey todd ... u should do a video about pajyeebxa .. “the miss universe”. Get all her clains & how it comes about.. so many Hmong people around the world are eager to know about her..
I’m agree with your comments , We have been fellow Todd and Née née Now in Laos for quite some times no comment, I have to saying small World, my husband Nephew was also married Christ wife older daughter thank you so much for sharing you both bring the happiness to Peoples hearts We will sharing to families and friends and click like to all your You Tube May Buddha God Blessings be safe with your Journal’s 👍✌️👩❤️👨🇺🇸
got married in 2016, Nakhon Si Thammarat, wedding lasted the whole day, after being married at 8 am, the only thing planned was the 8 piece band at night, Sahsprink-lah, brilliant
Haha yeah, our wedding here in Vientiane was pretty much the same. Whole day affair
Beautiful wedding and gardens he nice not see his family
🙏👍👍😍
Just found you last night. So thinking about leaving the west now.
Sorry mate, I'm married 😉
@@NowinLao Lol
@@NowinLao Had a place in Chae Hom, Thailand but Thai wife was a crook.
It was good to see Chris B. again. just wondering how many people sign long-term leasing now ?
Still working on it, it is slow moving project
@@chrisperkins7331 best wish to you hoping everything going well
@@davidren7386 Thanks for the good wishes. Life is good, I have many things to keep me amused how about yours?
@@chrisperkins7331 I am boaring at home , don't know where to go , first I thinking philippines because easy with English-speaking, know I m thinking laos after watching you video. I m most likely go to laos on November this year , planning to visit you, can you arrange a place for a 2 month stay
@@davidren7386 I am happy to help out in any way I can. Nice G/H for normal private room price today is US$6.5 per night easy to arrange. I think the biggest problem with the Philopenas is the weather. They have many really bad storms, that lao does not get as it is protected by a mountain range. If you look at the early vids that Todd has done with me (6 in total) you will see my email address. Just drop me a line and ask anything else you would like to know.
How does he go growing tomatoes? We have trouble in Brisbane
Not great so far. I think it is the amount of humidity, but we will keep trying.
Hi I love watching your channel , can you tell me do I need to be vaccinated ( Covid ) to go visit lao 🌾🌸🌼🌻🌊
Thanks.
No 😉
Hi, I will be going to Lao in a couple of days and stay for 1 week , would like to see Vientiane but do you have any recommendations on what area is best to stay so we can just walk around?
Stay in the tourist area close to the night markets 👌
Please which location?
Just outside Pakxan in the road to Phonsavahn
Well, that is a MIMOSA plant, f@ck i HATE those, wear protective gloves when you remove them from your garden! (I used welding gloves, real leather, those did the job for me ...)
And there are some close relatives to them, which grew 3 meter tall and almost impossible to get rid of ...
Well, what is this, compared to a lovely visit by a scorpion in your room while you sleep? :D

every 1 with a decent brain tries at least to leave europe, all the controle there damn wef
Great video Todd. Congratulations to Chris and his family on a beautiful wedding. Also, nice to see the updates on Chris's farm, it looks like he really enjoying his life there. Did Chris get anyone to rent or lease the land?
It is a work in progress, like everything thing in Lao, "PDR"
@@chrisperkins7331 I hope things work out for you. Good luck!
