No words needed to express how you felt meeting that young man who was blind, it all showed on your face. Well done Todd and Neenee for bringing joy to him, he will remember that for a long time.
The blind man was excited. He felt the bag and was happy it had body soap. He was saying thank you and encouraged the kids to also take the candy bars. Great job for sharing.
The blind boy he said "I got it you didn't (teasing the little kids). He was so happy when I knew what was in the bag you gave him he said he is going to have soap to bathe tonight...lol This is so touching how much happiness you and your wife brought to them.
The place is so remote I'm sure they've never seen a foreigner before so part of them is scared and these people are also shy that's why some of the kids rather not take the candies. I don't think they know about Covid-19 being that they live so high up in the mountains that's why they got scared when you guys wear masks. The young blind man was so happy & he said to the kids "I also got a bag", he can't see but he can feel so he said there's a soap in his bag that he can take a bath with. He also said thank you. Bring tears into my eyes seeing how happy the young blind man reacting to the gift. Anyway, thank you both for your generosity.
The Hmong people seemed to be very isolated . It so endearing that you and Neenee reach out to them. And that group picture is priceless.🎁😍😍🎁. Such a beautiful vlog that brings out the best of your generosity. You and Neenee are truly their guardian angel🎁🎁. Thank you for what you do. Sending you lots of love💖💖 Harriet and JIm. Richmond, Va.
Sort of reminds me when I was trekking in Laos 20 years ago . After 8 hours of trekking through the jungle we came to this village , it must have been strange for them when a couple of white guys turn up and stay the night especially as they have never seen any Europeans before. The kids never stoped following me around , I never had chocolate or anything for them it was hard enough carrying bottles of water in my backpack. When I woke up in the morning about 6 o’clock I went outside the wooden house only to find a bunch of kids waiting to see me . It was a surreal experience one that I will never forget . I will never forget the leeches that I found on my body either. Merry Christmas 🎁
@@lovemusicnatureartsfoods... I wouldn’t call it famous more like curious. I would highly recommend it I’m sure there are still parts of Laos where people have still not come into contact with Europeans before . As for the leeches they come off easy enough once you put some salt on them.
@@supersonicsid5930 looks like here in my country Philippines 🇵🇭 there's places especially in the remote area that we called it mountain or village, people there when they see new face they are so curious they look you from foot to head we called it here marites or gossiper 😂😂😂..
@@lovemusicnatureartsfoods... Gossiper , that’s what what I call my wife , she loves a gossip but she’s Vietnamese, all Vietnamese love to gossip. Especially over a coffee which could last 2 or 3 hours . We’re coming to the Philippines when all this Covid has blown over . It’s not so far from Vietnam, would love to visit some islands and embrace your culture .
Thank you Todd and nene For what you two do for the Hmong people and others. This video at the end was well put together made me feel really sad For my people. Your blog will last ifetimes and for your generations to come
Todd and Nenee, I'm one of your regular subscribers and have been watching your channel for awhile. Hmong people including myself are shy just like shy people in general. So, let me say "thank you" on behalf of my Hmong people in this village and elsewhere in Laos where you and your wife have visited. By the way, the young man who is blind was saying "candy oh I got candy" and then said "thank you" in Laotian. Yes, he was very happy for the candy 🍬 you gave him as we can tell by his facial expression and gesture. Thank you again and happy new year 🎉 ...
Thanks so much for helping the people of Lao. See the smile on the people faces especially the children meant so much and May god bless you 100 times more Todd and Née Née.
Watching your videos about my fellow Hmong people makes me so emotional. I have so many relatives in Laos and it's been very difficult not being able to visit due to the pandemic. Thank you for the kind acts you are both doing to help the communities in Laos during this time. God bless!
Thank you for your kindness and your thoughtfulness to the Hmong people! Most of them farther away up the hill and villages most of them are poor families they don’t have much at all so thanks for your kind heart! Bless your heart and merry Christmas from Columbus Ohio!
Todd, I just subscribed after watching these last two videos. I watched many of your other videos but had not subscribed 'til now. You visited remote village similar to one I was born in. I recall the dirt level Hmong houses with bark walls and grass leaf roofs. My village was remote from Sayabouri (Xayaboury) and this video reminded me of that. Distant memories but still with me.
I am very happy for your help and visit of tribes village , some kids they very shine when they see other peoples some of them , their parents teach them not to going close to some one they don’t know because right now covid19 are spreading fast in laos they are scare , any way be safe for your trip and enjoy the nature of laos .
At 13:05 the blind brother was very thankful and said he got more candies then the rest. He said thank you when you were leaving. Hey thanks for the support.
Beautiful video. It was warming to see the lady give you the bitter melon in exchange for your gift. The cleanliness of those isolated villages is wonderful to see
Both of you guys are wonderful. There are hundreds of Hmong Laos TH-camrs, but I have not see a single one of them donate anything to their own people, like you two. May God continue to bless you guys.
You and Nene are like traveling adventure angels. That country looked so beautiful. You captured the feeling right into my screen. Merry Christmas everyone. 🤟🙏
My folks were commenting to me while watching this video that Hmong folks from that area are so secluded that they're very shy and/or cautious of strangers.
Great video Todd and thank you and your wife for capturing my people. Even though i was born in the United State, as a 1st generation Hmong American, stories from my grnd parents, parents and relatives about the old life in Laos before the Vietnam war alway resignates with me. I wish to visit one day to turn dreams into reality.
Lily and I live in Mindanao and travel the mountain tribes of central Mindanao giving small gifts too. We understand the joy we give and thus we feel by these little acts of kindness and respect! Bravo to you and we love your videos!
Thank you for showing these video of our people. The joy of giving and receiving are such an amazing feelings. The smile and joy of this young blind man makes me very happy. Thank you so much for your generosity. May God blessed you and your wife always.
Hi NOW in Lao. Those who run away when you give them stuff are those who are truely in desparate need of help. Count on that cos I used to be like that; genuine people when serious hardships.
The drone footage is fascinating, and the black and white stills are unbelievably gorgeous. Nice camera work, as always. And, of course, your generosity is immeasurable. Thank you.
Interesting Mnong villages/scenery again,thanks Todd and Neenee,always lovely to see your love and generosity focussed on the less fortunate. Kenno...West Aust
Wow that was a powerful video made me feel very sad for those people you could see they wanted what you were giving they were obviously scared.Keepup the good work Todd and Neenee love watching all your shows but today's was exceptional you are making such a difference in their lives
Great video and the villagers are so similar but in some ways not - their curiosity , nervousness , then smiles and words are special - as always Many Thanks for taking us along .🇦🇺😎👌👍🙏🍻
This shows that there is hope for this world. One person giving just changes another persons day. What a beautiful video. Thank you for the time and kindness.
Thanks. Such a beautiful video.I enjoy them all but especially where you are with the Hmong people. Hope to go back for a visit soon but meanwhile living vicariously through your posts.
Todd and Nenee. We Thankyou so much. Hmong kids they were really like cookies , candy , chocolate but they were always shy that way. My past as same those kids ขอขอบพระคุณมากครับ. เด็กม้งบนดอยพวกเขาไม่รู้ไม่เข้าใจภาษาลาวครับ. ผู้ปกครองเขาคงพูดภาษาลาวเข้าใจภาษาลาวครับ. ขอบคุณครับ
Merry Christmas Sir and your wife, too. (We have Just given our 1 month old grand daughter a nickname. . Guess what ?! Neene. Emerald Amber Emmanuel @ Neene)
Love your videos. You guys are so kind. Glad I found this channel. Thank you for showing love for the hmong and others. Currently viewing all your previous videos and always waiting for new ones.
Thanks you for showing my people. Your doing more for them then I could ever do. The reason for living in the hill/mountain tops is to avoid having to deal with others. After loosing multiple kingdoms to the Hans, we've learn that living in Highlands they tend to leave us alone.
What a beautiful video. Thank you for posting this. The children, and people there are so precious. I saw so many sweet and endearing people when I was there. The children were all so happy to see me, because I stuck to the more traveled areas I guess. But they were all so excited to shout "Sabaidee" as I passed in the tuk tuk, or just walking along the road. I cannot wait to go back!!!
Things I'd bring Hmong villagers... rice, candy, over the counter medicine NSAIDs pills and analgesic balms for pain, first aid kits, water or flavored drinks, water purification systems, common size batteries, and flashlights. And of course, clothing. I'm sure there are other things, but this what I see requested the most from rural Hmong villages in Laos.
God Bless you sir and your wife also to help the people every one in urban community lord is smile happy to see your work sir and l'm happy also to see your vlog 💕👍👍👍👍God Bless you. Thank you sir and ma'am 👍💕
13:03 A kid says "they're giving it to you". The young blind man (after receiving the gift) says something like: "I got it (the bag), you guys don't!" Jokingly, teasing the kids. 14:00 "candy? yes, yes, Thank you. Thank you for the candy. 14:12 He (jokingly) says "it's soap! (like bathing soap)". The young man has a pretty tough accent. I was born and raised in America, so I speak more English-Hmong. English-Hmong has kind of deviated from Laos-Hmong, a little similar to American-English and British-English. So some nuances I didn't catch, but that's more or less what he was saying. All his excited screams were mostly just the way he talks. Yes, I'm sure he was happy to receive gifts, but some Hmong people (especially elders) use a lot of "OoooHhh!" or "Aaahhh!" in their sentences, and those excited sounds were mostly just that.
Back then the American airmen bombed the land and now this Austraslian guy distributed candies and other good stuffs. Thinking about it and seeing this I am crying.
May God blessing you and your wife's for loving our Hmong people's back in Laos. Thank you for showing how hmong villages look like in the mountains! When I see this these old houses makes me cry, thanks God that I have the chance came to America afterwards 1975!
The venture you and wife undertook was so great. The distribution of goodies on the way to the children and their families was fantastic. The people appeared to be well mannered, courteous and grateful for the packages
The beautiful adults and children will remember and talk about these two pioneers for the rest of their lives ,there are no words that can express my thanks to them only tears of joy .
SIMPLY Very Beautiful Hmong People.. CAM ON for the wonderful views of these lives and countryside. Makes Your Eyes Pour with Happiness to see such nice Me Con and they whole Families.
Thank so much for you and your wife Todd you guys has been done so much for those pools people.i wish have more person have such big heart like you brother Todd God bless you and your family.
Good onya mate.. its a great thing you and your wife do..the smile on the Blind guys face .. makes all those kilometres you drive..so worth it ...you are a Fair dinkum Legend..
Hey buddy brought out so many emotions. Wish you'd put your beautiful photos in print the black and white are amazing. Bless you Neenee and the big scary white dude
I just started to watch the Video and WOW, This is why o Love following you Man! What a incredible Video- the background song for intro and the drone shots! Im loss for word! Wow 😮 just wow- Keep up it up! I love you video so much! Wow 🤩
Brilliant video, as always, Todd. You and NeeNee are such a beautiful and amazing couple. May God bless and keep both of you safe always. You videos and photographs should be archived as a World Heritage treasure.
It's funny how all the little kids ran away when they saw your drone except one brave little girl stayed behind..lolzz Thank you to you and your wife for showing love the Hmong. God bless you both.
Wow it makes one think what we in the west deem as hardship rather humbled to see items within your charming videos , yes song time = ( Love’s in need of love today = Stevie Wonder ).
The electricity seems to be pretty well prevalent to all the village's, very shy people, true Aboriginals in Australia are very shy and some have no power or running water today , but that's here. The blind bloke was so happy with your kindness 😊
Todd & Nenee. Thankyou so much. The Hmong kids they did not spoke Lao and they did not understood Lao. I think most of their parent were understood Lao little bit . Hmong kids always shy that way. My past as same. I love / miss Laos my birth place beautiful country.
God bless you and your wife for giving so much and showing so much love to our Hmong people!❤️🙏🏻
No words needed to express how you felt meeting that young man who was blind, it all showed on your face. Well done Todd and Neenee for bringing joy to him, he will remember that for a long time.
I came here to say the same thing. There is nothing better than to be able to help others.
A few deep breathes to hold back the emotions..
Thanks guys 🙏
The blind man was excited. He felt the bag and was happy it had body soap. He was saying thank you and encouraged the kids to also take the candy bars. Great job for sharing.
He may not be blind- the young man made a comment saying soap to shower with and tossed the packet to ground.
@@NowinLao it’s always best TH-cam videos to make people smile
The blind boy he said "I got it you didn't (teasing the little kids). He was so happy when I knew what was in the bag you gave him he said he is going to have soap to bathe tonight...lol This is so touching how much happiness you and your wife brought to them.

ขอบคุณในความหวังดีของคุณ ที่ต้องการให้เขาเหล่านี้ มีชีวิตประจำวันที่ดีกว่านี้
เมื่อสัก30ปี ที่ผ่านมา ผมทำงานในจังหวัดภาคอีสาน ประเทศไทย ย่างเข้าหน้าหนาว หน่วยงานของรัฐ จะไปแจกผ้าห่มที่ทอจากเส้นใยสังเคราะห์ ชาวบ้านเรียก ผ้าห่มPTI และแจกทุกปี ทำไมไม่สอนให้เขาทอผ้า ทั้งที่ทุกคนทำเป็น แม้ฟืมจะเล็ก ทอเสร็จแล้วมาเย็บต่อกันเป็นผืนใหญ่ แต่ไม่มีใครทำ เพราะเขาบอกว่าไม่มีงบประมาณซื้อวัสดุ หากปลายปีจะมีงบตั้งไว้ซื้อแจก ผมว่าในประเทศนี้คงเหมือนกัน
At least once in your life you experienced to be famous but leechess is not good news 😂😂😂...

What an adventure you're having. Yes, Nenee is right....they do think you are scary Todd. LOL!
Wow that was a powerful video made me feel very sad for those people you could see they wanted what you were giving they were obviously scared.Keepup the good work Todd and Neenee love watching all your shows but today's was exceptional you are making such a difference in their lives

Thank you Kou.. really appreciate the kind words and support 💚
Todd and Neenee... thanks for sharing. You both have kind heart. It shows through your action. God Bless...
Thanks for being so kind to those kids. They are very shy. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks you for showing my people. Your doing more for them then I could ever do. The reason for living in the hill/mountain tops is to avoid having to deal with others. After loosing multiple kingdoms to the Hans, we've learn that living in Highlands they tend to leave us alone.
The little ones are the cutest things going. Adorable. But a lot of villagers are very wary of strangers.
looks like the kids have been taught 'dont take sweets from strangers'. just like we were as kids.
Hi Todd Donna and I just love love ALL of your videos keep up the great work cheers 🙏👍👍👍👍👍😎🍻
Thanks guys
What a beautiful video. Thank you for posting this. The children, and people there are so precious. I saw so many sweet and endearing people when I was there. The children were all so happy to see me, because I stuck to the more traveled areas I guess. But they were all so excited to shout "Sabaidee" as I passed in the tuk tuk, or just walking along the road. I cannot wait to go back!!!
Thank you for your video. Brings back many memories. Brings tears to my eyes. Keep up the good work and your kind gesture.
Sam sisavath
... Beautiful beginning song!... Thank you.... Do you have any video of Hmong opium fields?
You and Nee Nee are two very special ppl, it shows how much you care in these videos. . ... Safe travels
Things I'd bring Hmong villagers... rice, candy, over the counter medicine NSAIDs pills and analgesic balms for pain, first aid kits, water or flavored drinks, water purification systems, common size batteries, and flashlights. And of course, clothing. I'm sure there are other things, but this what I see requested the most from rural Hmong villages in Laos.
Heart braking video. Sach a beautiful people. They smile is bigger from the Sun. God bless them all .
The Blind guy very happy and he thank you guys a lot for everything
Good job.
The blind guy is so happy with your gift.
Bless you both for doing such a good deed.
They still can smile and they still strong. In my opinion they are amazing.
God Bless you sir and your wife also to help the people every one in urban community lord is smile happy to see your work sir and l'm happy also to see your vlog 💕👍👍👍👍God Bless you. Thank you sir and ma'am 👍💕

back in Laos. Thank you for showing how hmong villages look like in the mountains! When I see this these old houses makes me cry, thanks God that I have the chance came to America afterwards 1975!
I miss the mountains. Excellent drone footage. I like the way you try to analyze and figure out what certain building structure is. Very good, sir!
Thank you for giving them some goodies. They are much appreciated for sure, so do I.
No problem.. just glad we can help 🙏
It's amazing to see power lines running out to some of these villages that are so very remote.
Thanks for sharing.
Very nice.
👍👍🖐🖐🍷🍷
The venture you and wife undertook was so great. The distribution of goodies on the way to the children and their families was fantastic. The people appeared to be well mannered, courteous and grateful for the packages
Dogs are similar to the dogs in Turkey, especially Istanbul. Everyone takes care of them, so they are very chill, even among huge crowds of tourists.
The beautiful adults and children will remember and talk about these two pioneers for the rest of their lives ,there are no words that can express my thanks to them only tears of joy .
This melts my heart to see these videos, I miss my families there, bless your ❤️ for giving. Thank you for these great captures.
Heartwarming and inspiring video Todd, thank you, and Merry Christmas to you and Nene.
not even 3 minutes in and I get to see 2 of my favourite things, drone footage and cookies :D
Your a true Australian god bless you for your fortitude and generosity god bless you and your misses
Thanks Simon. Like any true blue Aussie, when you're in a position to help.. you do 👌
Cheers 🍻
The young blind man did say thank in Hmong👍❤️🇨🇦

Thank you to you and your wife for showing love the Hmong. God bless you both.
Beautiful pictures captured.
Wow it makes one think what we in the west deem as hardship rather humbled to see items within your charming videos , yes song time = ( Love’s in need of love today = Stevie Wonder ).
The electricity seems to be pretty well prevalent to all the village's, very shy people, true Aboriginals in Australia are very shy and some have no power or running water today , but that's here. The blind bloke was so happy with your kindness 😊
Todd & Nenee. Thankyou so much. The Hmong kids they did not spoke Lao and they did not understood Lao. I think most of their parent were understood Lao little bit . Hmong kids always shy that way. My past as same. I love / miss Laos my birth place beautiful country.
