    I was just in Laos 🇱🇦. Such a beautiful country full of great people.
    I love how pretty much everyone in that part of the world grows tons of fruit trees.
    They never lost the knowledge to grow your own food.

We take pics of things in the garden and Google the pic. You can try to do that in preparation of this video - then if he doesn't know the name, you can help. Have you ever eaten Chinese dishes with bamboo shoots? Not exotic, a typical ingredient in authentic Asian food.
