A lot of people are asking in the comments to give credit to the people who filmed and edited this video. I just wanted to let everyone know that I shot and edited this video myself. I make these Day in the Life videos in this way to highlight the simple beauty of the Thai people's spirits. I focus all my energy on the filming and editing and intentionally don't put myself in the video or as a voiceover, as I feel it's best to just let the stories speak for themselves. Your comments below really feel good to read, because many of you are totally seeing the point of these videos which, in this case, is to showcase what a beautiful joyous spirit this Thai Teacher is, and how we should all feel just a little bit luckier with our own lives. Much love everyone and thanks to all who commented below.
Amazing video! Loved the way you were kinda just taking in all that was happening . That story about the rats and lizards being bad roommates was so funny!
Thanks for your hard work. The story tells everything perfectly. Although I’m Thai people, I have a tear when I watch your video. I respect their sacrifice, and I would give love to humanity as she does.
Please see that the school, teacher, or someone in the village receives this. Sounds like they could use a refrigerator/freezer. Use it for whatever purpose they deem necessary. Another award-winning video from you Chris. Thanks!!!
My friends are Karen tribe and also teachers in remote place in Maesot. Always respect them because I was one of many tribe in Thailand and grew up with love and dedication of Thai people.❤❤ Bless to be born in Thailand. FC from UK.
There are often questions, why not build roads? Hill tribe villages are often located in forests upstream or in the national park area. Therefore, the decision to build a road or bring prosperity into it. Will cause important forests and wildlife to be destroyed. Forest areas will be encroached on to create resorts, such as the forest areas in Phetchabun that have been destroyed by resorts and tourism. Therefore, it can be seen that the mountain school will build a villa. for teachers and students to live during school term And there is an area to grow vegetables and raise animals for food
You told that teacher you would come visit during the rainy season and you did ... truly a man of your word! You really captured the essence of the struggle in this film. Bravo!
i teach indigenous high school students in saskatoon, saskatchewan, canada. i'll be back at work next week. we would love a shout-out from you. i have been a fan for a few years now. i've been to thailand 3 times and plan on retiring there in 5 years, and your videos are such an inspiration.
I watched this story on your suggestion after viewing your "Why I'm never leaving Thailand" video. It made my day! I cannot wait until First of the Month (payday) to help iCareThailand with their work.
We are familyคุณเป็นต่างชาติแค่รูปลักษณ์ภายนอกคุณออกไปสัมผัสไปเห็นสิ่งต่างๆและเข้าถึงวิถีชีวิตที่กันดารจริงๆด้วยตัวเองและนำเสนอวีดีโอนี้ออกสู่สายตาชาวโลกแม้แต่คนไทยก็ยังไม่เคยไปสัมผัสจุดนี้ด้วยตัวเอง🙏ขอบคุณนะคะที่คุณเลือกประเทศไทยเป็นบ้านของคุณและครอบครัว🍀♥️🍾🎉
My greatest respect for this people, and especially for this wonderful teacher, she is a shiny pearl and her strenght to help the children in teaching despite all bad circumstances is remarcable ! Wonderful video ! Thank you so much Chris P. 🙏❤
Truly heart-warming video, Chris. It makes me realize that I should never complain about difficulties in life ever again! I salute those tough people, especially the teachers, with all my heart!
Incredible piece Chris! Your dedication, energy and focus to create this incredible video totally blows my mind! Keep up the fantastic work beautiful brother!
What an amazing woman. Such an amazing spirit smile and energy. Im glad you linked this video or i might have missed one of your. Hope your feeling rested after some important time taking care of the family. Happy Birthday 🎉🎊🎁
I have been watching you since the beginning and I love all your content but these stories of the people of Thailand lately are simply breathtaking SUSU!
was just about to say the same thing. these are by far the best videos imo. and i watch it all. Most westerners have no idea how amazing the Thai people are.
This is one of your best video that you have created. Is really is eye opening to know about this kind of situation happening. Please do more video on this kind of situation. Thank you.
At the beginning, both teachers speak hill tribe language to each other. Certainly, they are hill tribe people who have graduated and become teachers. They give back to their hill tribe community and their further generations.
Thank you again Chris for this amazing video. Please send my support to the school and teachers there for all their hard work and efforts. These teachers and school are truely an inspiration and deserve all the support they can get.
I have watched this video so many times. I love Thailand and am Married to a Thai lady. I’m still living in Los Angeles, actually in BURBANK Chris’s old stomping grounds. I’m pretty much retired And rolling my company over to the next generation. I build guitars for a hobby. I’m working on several guitars and ukuleles that I plan to give to the schools of northern Thailand. This video motivated me so much. Can’t wait to bring them.
This lady - and her colleague - are admirable! Their selflessness is a magnificent example! Thank you for this great video. Like the one you did a few weeks ago on a cook, it's so full of information and life lessons! 🙏🙏🙏
If you think your commute to work is hard, watch this video! It shows how love can overcome any obstacle. My deepest respect to the Thai teacher for her selfless dedication to her students. Thai people are among the most hardworking and kindest in the world. Thank you for making this video to raise awareness of the challenges faced by people in rural areas.
I was in N Thailand among the karen tribe villages. It was in the dry season and almost completely impassable without the water. I can't imagine going through this....and the reason I am retiring to Thailand is because they still manage a smile and good attitude. Just another day to them
This is why I love Thailand and the people of Thailand! Thank you for sharing this story and showcasing the sense of community, the perseverance and dedication these rural Thai teachers have. Their spirit and tenacity is something to behold. We take for granted the simplest of things here in Canada. I was so moved and touched throughout this video Chris. My heart is deeply moved. Much love 🙏
Wow that's why I love the Thais, they have so much resilience, they make do with what they have and what happens. They continue to smile despite the difficulties. I am fascinated by their determination. They take out their machetes and make their way through the bush. It’s a great life lesson for Westerners like me who come from Canada. Very enriching video. We must not forget the person(s) who went through the same difficulties to make this video a masterpiece. Congratulations with a "s" for this great dedication. Thanks, I'll watch it more than once.
Some footages reminded me of the King Rama 9 and his visit to the hill tribes. His jeep was in the stream like this and also in the dark. Later, the king initiated his royal project "dltv" (distance learning television) to help the education in the rural area. The project continue until today and became more recognized again during the pandemic. However, having teachers to nurture the kids physically in the community is important for healthy education. Thank you Christ, I care, and whoever involved in this project to improve the life condition of the teachers. (and also the community) The happiness of giving is contagious and by your effort filming and sharing this to us, I hope there will be more & more multiply effect from it. And more people can smile and say like the teacher said "though I'm tired, I am happy" and really feel how it's like. Happy belated birthday to you ka ลุงคริส 😊🙏🏻
Very humbling to see what they have to endure just to teach the young ones. Thank you for sharing with us a day in the life of a teacher in northern Thailand.
There is a short film about Thai teachers. or advertisements based on true stories from Thai teachers I want everyone to find and watch. then you will cry
Wow another completely fantastic mini documentary where nothing has to be said, the video shows it all. Truly exceptional and hardworking people that love life.
She is truly beautiful inside and outside can be friend with lizards and geckos all sorts if you understand what she saying such full ofsl sense of humour too. Bless her and ❤
I'm one of your FC but never have any comments, but this is an amazing video that makes me know that you had many effort to do all the good work. Keep going Chris!
Teacher is a blessing and gift to the humanity around her that is called community.Most important to be happy and other things dont matter at all,whether it is hard or not,most important is what makes you happy.
Beautifully shot and completely humbling, thanks Chris. 🙏 And as much as we missed your dulcet voiceovers, I loved the soundscape of hearing only Thai. Beautiful
I worked with the Akah hill tribe in 2003 so this is a fascinating reminder of what an incredible time I had there. Like here their parents were farmers without much opportunity; they would come down and stay at a large housing area for them. They would go to the Thai schools and learn English and computers and we would work in the green tea fields during the day. One of the most rewarding things I have ever been apart of
It is rare that I am so inspired by a "farang:" in Thailand. I didn't get through the whole video last time due to work but after your return from Seoul, your birthday post brought me back, I have now finished the video and I am looking forward to doing something good for Icare and the kids and excellent teachers like Arunsri of Thailand. Thanks for all you do for expats and for Thailand. Everything you post resonates with me and in fact, makes my job easier as I share lots of your content with my students and interns.
Stumbled across your channel and am completely enthralled by your "Day in the Life" videos. Please make more! That river crossing was insane. The teamwork and attitude of everyone coming together was incredible.
very good content and amazing shooting quality. Thank you for being here in Thailand and contribute the good positive impact to our society. Keep up the good project. I will be always supporting your channel.
Yeah this is how Thai life is in the North and especially in the mountains with the Hill Tribes. Hard conditions, but they make the best of it. Great to see them smile even when it is a struggle. Nice video @RetiredWorkingForYou, this was a complete different video with not you as the main person, but a teacher. Well done! Looked like a documentary type of video.
I love this. Absolutely humanizing to watch this video. I appreciate content like this because it helps one to also remember how blessed we are to have the little that we got and I really salute the heart of the teacher because she is literally doing Gods work caring for these young kids and it’s crazy too see the jungle journey she goes through just to get up and teach. She’s on a mission and she deserves that new home! 🙏🏽❤️
I can totally relate with this video as, on behalf of the company I worked for before I retired, I worked a lot with the Border Patrol Police schools in locations around the country no less remote than this school in Mae Hong Son Province. I know for a fact that these teachers are very dedicated, and they wouldn't have it any other ways. My staff and I had it easy as we usually fly in and out onboard police or Army helicopters on dedication days and to oversee the construction of a school building here, a dormitory there, etc. Every year we will also bring up volunteer employees from the company to help build something or simply just to help paint new buildings. My work was very satisfying, and perhaps that's why good karma has kept me alive to these days despite flying in and out of the jungle almost monthly on 20-30-year-old military helicopters, not counting flying to-and-flo from Bangkok. BTW, the video was exceptionally good! Oh, these people are of Pagagayaw tribe. They are very resilient. The two teachers also speak the Pagagayaw language to each other so I surmise they are also Pagagayaw.
I'm now in love with that teacher! What a commitment and great sense of humor, even in the most difficult of times. Amazing video, but damn you for making me suffer and watch that poor doggie! Cheers and love the videos
Thank you so much for this update! You and your videos have changed my life. My wife and I were already worried…. Please keep us informed about your life and about life in Thailand. We look forward to being part of your life on Samui. Please keep us updated... All the best to you and your loved ones!
I want to thank you my friend. I pray to God to show me a location to help the children and the elderly. I will be arriving in Thailand October, and I am extremely thankful and grateful that you shared this video. God Bless you my brother 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
One of the best and most informative blogs on the difficulties of rural life and the perseverance of the people to help each other, really dedicated teacher.
Visiting Thailand for the first time. This reminds me of the stories of my african mother and father. Thailand is a beautiful place, I hope to visit more in the future and help how i can!
Sabes mi. MAma fue maestra directora y pasaba muy mal, como tu para llegar a su escuela.... En sus comienzo.... Maestra por vocación y corazón!! por la educación pública gratuita,para todos.. se pasaba toda la semana en la escuela y venía a casa los fin de semana... Un gusto saludarte, desearte éxitos en todos los proyectos.. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙏🙋♀️
Wow !!! Amazing. You truly captured the struggles & villages life in this one. The Thais always seem to have a smile no matter what is put in their way. Your best video yet, 10 out of 10. Very well done !!!
Thank you for making this heartwarming video. My heart is filled with her love. Salute for her kindness and selflessness. Moreover, your video is magnificent. Thanks for your hardworking.

Thank you so very much
Thank you. 🥰🥰🥰

That's an amazing testament to the Thai spirit. They don't complain about adversity, they just find a way to get round it, and keep on smiling!
I love this comment. It’s exactly why I made this video without me in it.

I can totally relate with this video as, on behalf of the company I worked for before I retired, I worked a lot with the Border Patrol Police schools in locations around the country no less remote than this school in Mae Hong Son Province. I know for a fact that these teachers are very dedicated, and they wouldn't have it any other ways. My staff and I had it easy as we usually fly in and out onboard police or Army helicopters on dedication days and to oversee the construction of a school building here, a dormitory there, etc. Every year we will also bring up volunteer employees from the company to help build something or simply just to help paint new buildings. My work was very satisfying, and perhaps that's why good karma has kept me alive to these days despite flying in and out of the jungle almost monthly on 20-30-year-old military helicopters, not counting flying to-and-flo from Bangkok. BTW, the video was exceptionally good! Oh, these people are of Pagagayaw tribe. They are very resilient. The two teachers also speak the Pagagayaw language to each other so I surmise they are also Pagagayaw.
I'm now in love with that teacher! What a commitment and great sense of humor, even in the most difficult of times. Amazing video, but damn you for making me suffer and watch that poor doggie! Cheers and love the videos

you're an absolute legend, really appreciate this style of shooting.
Wonderful video. Having no voiceover and not putting yourself in the video is really the best way to tell the story.
Gracias por divulgar al mundo el trabajo que pasan los maestros rurales en sus comienzos.. En todos los países.. Gratitud 🙏 Saludo cordial. Makoke.
The shots are so cinematic bro love the sound cuts and editing.
One of the best and most informative blogs on the difficulties of rural life and the perseverance of the people to help each other, really dedicated teacher.
Visiting Thailand for the first time. This reminds me of the stories of my african mother and father. Thailand is a beautiful place, I hope to visit more in the future and help how i can!
