      So you were friends first, not lovers, maybe because of language ?

      Hey Joe, I had some free time on my hands so I was able to watch some of your past videos. This video on how you met Gift was really good, I’m glad you found Gift and her family, they helped you out in a big way. I’m happy for you and your blessings . Safe travels!

      This is great. Me and my Thai Girlfriend-- I mean WIFE! We got married a week ago! We had a similar courtship including her coming to the hospital EVERY DAY for 10 days when I was in the hospital for a Quadruple Bypass! That's when I decided to marry her! Ps. I'm doing great now! We will be back in Thailand this summer and want to come meet you guys and visit your city!

I have also watched a lot of your videos on travel and the total part of building a new home which is my profession in Australia. I have never been to Thailand…actually never traveled overseas but will in 2023…I just wanted to say how I admire you both. The small challenges you had to face at the beginning with language and to where you guys are now…you are both very lucky to have found each other…I wish you all the best and will continue to watch what happens..I hope you both had a merry Christmas and have a great western and thai New Years…I hope to one day meet you both..stay safe
