    beautiful musical score. Pure Genius . Well Done! 🙏❤🙏 All the best. Jim and Harriet. Richmond, Va.

    In the markets of Vietnam, there will always be people sitting around out front smoking cigarettes, but I didn't notice any smokers in this Hmong village. That gives me hope for the future.
    I like how you turned around to get a shot of your thumbnail girl and said "How's that for a backdrop" speaking of the stunning mountain. You can't fool an old birdwatcher like me.
    The drone shot of that big valley nestled among the old mountains is incredible. Just stunning.

    These Hmong people's are similar to any other mongolian people's. And here you mentioned them as Laos, the Laos people's are also found to be in myanmar country. It was in early 80s when the country was facing hard time under military ruled as it happened this year 2022 these Laos people's came to india 🇮🇳neared the myanmar border. Old and young had stuggle alot during that time, of course we helped them with foods shelter and clothing. Some few youngs stayed for years and had left their homes 🏠after many years. How do they had separated to far flung places. 🔥🙏 The places are full of green 🟢mountainous yet to be develop. May be many hidden gold and diamonds are there in Lao. As newly created country more developments needs to take place. Such a wonderful places. 🔥🙏

    Hi, another good video, it looks like the older folk have had a tough life . Not a lot of smiles on their faces. And the smaller kids look like you are about to kidnap them , I imagine they don't see a lot of foreign faces. When I travelled MANY years ago before mobile phones and the internet. I was told that people thought that you were rich , due to the fact that you were in their country. And I never really had any problems . Nice to see you buying from them and nice of you to hand out food and clothing. Keep up the good work , and looking forward to the next chapter.

    Hi, you’re in Laos right now. I am Hmong but I live in America. I like watching your videos and there’s a family that lives in Laos somewhere but I saw a cow falling in a big hole and they don’t have any ideas on how to help that cow out and it’s been at least a month and I still don’t know if the cow is out or not but since you’re there, I would appreciate it if you might check it out if the cow is still there. I’ll give you their youtube channel and your wife speaks laos and she could translate for you. Their channel is called vuj yaj thiab mas lis. If you can do this, I’ll be very happy and appreciative if you can.
