Isn't it magical, when you go to help others you receive help yourself like in your case vendors wanting to give you even more than you bargained for or a discount. What a wonderful world we live in!
It truly is. The vendors are trying to make ends meet too but they still want to help, that says everything about how genuine and kind Thai people are :)
Thank you for highlighting the desperation of elephant rescues to make enough money during Covid, blessings to you both
Thanks Jen. We're glad we can help a little during these difficult times.
This vlog is emotional . Loved the story of Notes mom , that must be a great generous lady , just as you both are . 🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌to all the elephants !!!!🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️from 🇮🇹
Thank you Hasip!
I had the pleasure to know her when she had Joy’s Elephant Camp in Pai 15 years ago! Great memories long ago.
คุณหล่อแฟนสวยแถมใจดี และเฟรนลี่มาก ขอบคุณทีโปรโมทประเทศไทยและแสดงความเป็นไทยให้ชาวต่างชาติได้รู้
You two have such big hearts.
Thank you so much for supporting these beautiful, magnificent creatures. This video made my heart so happy. I can’t wait for the day I get to meet a rescued elephant❤️
I'm glad to hear it made you happy! Hope that dream of yours will come true soon :)
Absolutely Love Elephants. Sure Wish I Could Feed/ Touch 1. Had No Idea How Much Water They Drank. Wish I Could Hop On Airplane Today. Started Off Outstanding Seeing Both Of You Getting Food For The Elephants & Finished Outstanding In The Bloopers Seeing Flora Eat Half A Banana & Having 1 Of The Elephants Scratch His Back
Cute bloopers in this one 😂 Thanks for watching, Drew!
My heart melts when you bought cat food too. And it melts to the floor when all the vendors helped you. ❤️💖💕
Ps. I plan to donate soon.
We can't forget the cute cats! They were so sweet..was tempted to take one home but my old cat at home wouldn't be too happy about it. All the vendors were really lovely :) It was such a wonderful day.
Flora and Note Thank you for helping these wonderful beings🙏🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖
We did what we can for now. Hope our video can bring awareness to more animal lovers out there 🐘😍
You’re so kind and wonderful couple. Thank you so much for your good deed!

In Chiang Mai, the people use the poo to make paper! Then it comes out with wide range of poo product🤣

"When you do good deed, good things come to you." So true, Flora. It's called KARMA.
In Thai that is 'Tam deed dai dee... tam chua dai chua' (do good get good... do bad get bad) 😊

I love what you guys doing and so happy for the elephant and everyone around.
Great place to visit and just watching elephants roam around is cool. Love it ✌️
One thing I have noticed in your videos and videos of other people Lilys Ex Pat Life… is how incredibly caring and generous and loving the Thai people are! God Bless The people of Thailand.
We absolutely agree! 💕
Awww...this is so sweet.
Happy to donate and thank you for sharing.
ขอบคุณแทนท่านพอ่ช้าง.ใจบุญดี
You guys are awesome 👏🏼
Thanks Flora n Note for feeding elephants. You guys have got double merit to help people so as animals. You brought tears to my eyes. Such the best kindness you gave to them. You bring the joyful to us. Your Vlogs are getting better. Cheers!
Note I was watching this video and you mentioned that your mother had a elephant camp in Pai! OMG! I know your mom Jitty! I remember you and the wedding at her elephant camp long ago. Was that your wedding? I wanted to go but my friend Jack said he didn’t want to go. I did see pictures with your mother belly dancing! I regretted not going because I was a good friend of your mother. I remember her elephant Joy! Wishing you both success with your blog. You have a big heart like your mom! I will Messenger your mother that I saw this video. I’m living in Tak the last 15 years. Chok Dee!
ถ้าเข้าไปซื้อผลไม่โดยตรงจากสวน น่าจะได้ราคาถูกกว่าเกือบครึ่งเลยนะครับ ... ชอบ มุมมองและการกระทำในเชิงบวกของคุณสองคน
This was a very kind of you too to feed the elephant and it was nice of the Thai locals to give extra food
All of the vendors contributed a little something to the donation. It was heart warming to see even tho times are tough for them, they are still willing to help with what they can. Thais are lovely people 😍🙏
@@FloraandNote yes they are
Love what you guys did. God bless you two
What an awesome look into the elephants and their retirement location. I like the way Note tied in his family ties to the elephants. Very original and personal for him and his mother. Keep the vlogs coming! Have a wondeflo day!
Thank you for your donation, Rob!
Kindness begets kindness. God blesses you and Note abundantly. Elephants eat a lot.
Thank you Pius and yes they do! 😂
Hi Flora & Noe-That was an awesome vlog that brought a smile to my face the whole time I was watching it! You two rock and thanks for posting this video! Not to mention the link to the sanctuary!
We're so glad it made you happy! It was our pleasure spending a day with them :)
Thank you Flora and Note, I am crying by watching this :')
Hope you'll get a chance to come visit them :)
Sawasdee Ka from Perth Australia, my husband and I would just like to say how amazing you 2 are, and Paddy Doyle, keep up the great work and vlogs, bless you ❤️🙏🇹🇭❤️
Loved the video and thanks to you guys for what you are doing 🙏
Thank you 🙏😍
Thanks for share a great video 😀👍love elefant
Thanks Dorte!
Great video guys me and my son went to that sanctuary when we was in samui as it was close to Cheong Mon where we was stopping.
My son fell in love with the elephants so we had to go 3 times during our stay they are so beautiful and friendly I will definitely be donating .
Great job guys and another awesome video thank you .
P.s come on note you best win the fight brother my money is on you lol ✌️✌️💪💪💪💪
Aww they really are lovable, especially the gentle granny elephants. Even I'm not sure who to put my money on.. they're both training so hard 😂
So nice! We’ve been in a sanctuary in chiang mai. These animals are so majestic and intelligent. But it is so sad that most of them had been through so much pain in their lives. So it is so important to support those sanctuary’s. You did something good with your donation! Do good and good will come back to you 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Nadine! We agree they deserve all the love in the world for everything they’ve been thru 🥰🙏🏻💕
Guys amazing job lots of love♥️♥️🙏🙏🇳🇵🇳🇵👌👌
Thank you so much :)
It was a amything video from you. Thank you .
Flora + Note + Animals = your best video so far ! Love you guys ! love koh samui and love elephants ! we'll visit them for sure !
Aww thank you! 🙏😍
I love your channel I am really enjoying this video both of your personalities the type of music you picked like everything and I'm probably going to binge watch your channel all day today I'm so glad I found you
Noble work and good tourism. It is fun to get to know elephants and feed them exotic fruits. Koh Samui is a great island and a safe island also one where it is safe and legal to smoke cannabis. I was happy on Koh Samuii and had a good friend in the hotel man; But was mad on my quest to explore Koh Tao Island(written of elsewhere.) After the elephant sanctuary in Hua Hin, Thailand, I wrote and published my essay, 'The Sacred Elephants of Hua Hin,' which is not specific to Hua Hin elephants; and generally mirrors the points you have made regarding the industry, strength, and human-like sentience of elephants(if it is right to call such gentle beasts 'human-like.'
I love you 2 ... you are wonderful persons !
🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for Caring n Sharing ..🙏👍😘
Thanks for sharing,
Excuse me but can you move you’re trunk! Lol 😂 well done guys! A win for the vendors and a delicious win for the Elephants... great vlog 👍👍👍
Haha how rude, right? 😂 Glad you enjoyed this vlog!
น้ำตาไหลเลย ขอให้สิ่งดีๆที่คุณทั้งสองทำในวันนี้ กลับสู่คุณด้วย ขอให้สุขภาพแข็งแรงปลอดภัยจากอันตรายและมีความสุขกับชีวิตตลอดไปนะคะ
ขอบคุณมากๆครับ 🥰🙏
LOVE this video 😍
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! THIS VIDEO TOUCHED MY HEART!!!
Glad you enjoyed it so much 💕🙏🏻 they are so beautiful!
bless them. this warms my heart. animals have the right to live. many of them are also losing their natural home due to massive land clearing in the forest. capitalist greed is a global problem. i can't bear to watch whales & other animals used to perform tricks. it is sad. do not support these places.
Thank you for watching 🥰🙏🏻 We also don’t support those organizations.
Hi Flora and Note, love your videos. Keep them coming. It is our only connection from Australia with Covid restrictions keeping us from traveling. What happens to the male elephants as we note that most sanctuaries have only females. We visited a sanctuary, as part of the elephant hills package, again they were only females.
Thanks for watching! Note also asked the same question and apparently male elephants are more aggressive and more unpredictable. That's probably why more females are rescued. At their sister branch, there is a male elephant there and also a baby elephant.
Thank you so much for this video! I just sent a donation. Thank you for bringing attention to this important cause!!
Thank you Meg for your support :)
@@FloraandNote Thanks so much for your wonderful channel! I'm new to it and loving it already!! :) You two seem terrific. :)
Thank you for this video....it was eye opening.
Wow this made my heart so warm and happy today! You guys are the best! I love your channel!
Thank you Waylin 🙏😍
สุดยอดครับ...น่ารักทั้งคู่เลยครับ อยากเห็นคอนเทนต์แบบนี้บ่อยๆครับ
Thanks you for your Vlogs .keep safe
Brilliant thanks ❤❤❤

Lovely video
พี่กล้ามโตคุ้นๆๆมาก
Love it!
Good job
We were coming to Samui next week and planned to visit the elephant sanctuary four of us but suddenly we aren’t welcome as we are unvaccinated so it’s Vietnam for us from now on. Good luck Thailand
What a great video! I'm a new subscriber, and am so happy to have found your videos 😊👍 (thanks to Paddy Doyle) I love Thailand and hope to visit some day. At least for now I can be there virtually through awesome content like this!
Welcome Family Dutton, glad to have you join on our adventures :)
Good evening Flo n Note....
Good job guys…
Thanks for you efforts. A fan and subscriber of you channel. Keep up with the videos and good deeds.
Thank you so much for supporting our work, Xiong Xiong 🥰🙏🥰🙏
Awesome video, guys.
My grandpa used to have elephants as well
Did you get to meet them when you were young?
Great clip your guys so nice and good heart.
Thank you so much 🥰
Great job. You guys.
Thanks Andy 😊
Super interesting, hope to visit when situation permit. Keep it up. Thanks.
When you can come, please choose one of the wonderful ethical sanctuaries in Thailand :)
Wonderful episode. Will for sure visit that sanctuary next time on Samui. It's not only humans that suffer during these times so that's nice you visit places like that. Now I will try and find out if they sell and ship their lovely t shirts 😊 edit. Hmm no t shirts so will donate some food instead.
Thank you for helping them out :)
Haha Dylan's favorite Fried Chicken stall.
Samui is not that big 😂😂😂
So good and excited to see what a good deed both of you have done. The elephants will be really happy to see both of you too. Kop khun maak2.🙏🙏
Even though it’s been a tough 18 months, the sanctuary has done a great job keeping the elephants happy and healthy there :)
What a great idea. Just found your channel - impressed by the quality of your story telling and camera work. You guys work so well together - enjoy.
Thank you Ant! Glad you found our channel :)
always watching the vlog and you guys are amazing to help the elephant.
Thanks Richard 🥰
What a marvelous video. I love bananas too but not the skin. If I ever manage to visit Thailand I will definitely visit an elephant sanctuary
