I always have a warm smile watching your videos, this one had me beaming! So relaxing and satisfying seeing you and your family living your lives in such a blissful place!
I think this funeral cost mutualization is a great thing. It helps keeping strong links between the members of a community. My Thai friend tells me it was not enough to pay for the funerals of her mother, but it helped.
In our area, every village is different. Some collect on a per-family basis, but in our village, it is 50 baht per person in the family. Typically, the family hosting the funeral will get somewhere around 60,000 baht from the village donation. Occasionally, we will have more than one funeral in a week, and that expense adds up for the locals. On top of that, people help out with setting things up and cooking. Every night, several people are assigned to stay with the corpse all night, but if you don’t want to do that, you can hire someone to go in your place. Though it varies, funerals here usually last around five days. There is a preparation day, three days when the monks come to chant in the evening, and then the cremation and cleanup. I sometimes wonder how they ever get anything done with all the ceremonies they are obligated to attend.
I just experienced the funeral help yesterday for my missus brother. Family is broke for helping me with medical expenses for my missus with cancer. Brought me to tears. Buddha bless them all! Surin.
Glad to see you are feeling better again! I guess the trick with depression is to stubbornly try to remember that it will always pass, and the joy of life, once out of it, is worth every second of it (and never make any important decisions during an episode!). Plenty of ladies lazying about in hammocks over here - including my wife, her mother and her aunts!
Thank you once again. Your content imho is a service in that for myself it restores my mind to sanity for a moment inside the mental noise here in the states. I feel I am brought to presence with all the lovely characters/souls against the background of what seems so deeply beautiful and simple. Damo you are a natural at being a guide and the soulful eyes and voice for all of us looking on. The elderly woman so lean and strong in old age and radiating beautiful smile better than any Grammy award winning nonsense here 🙏🏻❤️
I like how u explained all of those village experiences.....Im in Buriram, and in the village and there are no words how hot it is in the summer for the men who normally do the cow, or buffaloe stuff......their skin is so black from it....and the money for the people who die is a good thing i think...i know my gf appreciated the extra money to pay for the ceremony and all that stuff when it happened to us....
In our village in Pattani Thailand we do it very differently we go to about 6 funerals a month and when we go they always offer food and have a list of all us villages and we all check in and donate 100 baht each funeral and get checked on the list. The money pays for the funeral the family makes the food and often give a gift after we pay respects at the cremation during covid the gift was a more expensive mask but often a plate or cup for everyone who pays respect but we turn the gift down often so the gifts will streach out. And our village uses LINE to keep up on news like funerals and garbage man not coming this week.
I just love this channel. I will be arriving in Thailand on the 18th of this month. I hope our paths cross while I am there. Y’all have helped me so much. Thank you.🙏🏽
Thanks for sharing guys. Interesting to know about the fund to help the village people with the funeral expenses as I can imagine the local people wouldn't have much free cash for such things. Again its testimony to the Thai culture and community spirit. The lake there looks like a great spot to watch the sunset. Thanks for sharing Ryan and Damo ❤
Awesome video Damo I was amazed when I first learnt about the community funeral fund and unfortunately many Thai families could not afford a funeral without the help from the community Take Care
I think it’s a great support system to help each other in a difficult time I wish westerners would be more like Thai culture and growing all the fresh organic veg is amazing Damo I notice your hair is looking very nice and healthy do you use a specific treatment for that I was also wondering how your father is doing now I he is well thank you guys for your video
Do people in rural Thailand use rainwater collection systems? I was a bit surprised to hear that the village has problems with water. It certainly seems to rain enough to make rainwater collection a practical solution, and such systems do not need to be expensive. Thanks for the views of daily life! Much more interesting than tourist travel videos. :)
My Mother in law will get in the Hammock sometimes. And every time she does, she's asleep in minutes 😂 But they sure do love the Hammocks in Thailand. I think nearly every house has one in my Wife's Village 😅
If you have lead/acid batteries you should not be running it for 3 days before charging, you should always keep it topped up daily or you will shorten the life of the batteries, unlike lithium batteries.
Our electric three wheeler has lasted for five years. It not the same (Lion) brand and has two seats in the back. It's recharged every two days. My Lion three wheeler has lasted for two years with only the battery replaced (larger batteries). It's a two seater and is also charged every two days.
Like the channel and interesting how Thai people come together. Many families don't have much money but have great love for each other. Have seen older Thai women in a hammock but not so common. Thai women work hard for family as do the men. The older generation work hard but the younger generation do not have the same work ethic. The younger generation want everything now and sadly they get themselves into the alcohol, ice and yabba. Seen it too much. As for Thai men in hammocks not so much because the older guys are working but the young guys are on their phone constantly.
Another interesting video. The community attitude of contributing to a fund to help with fellow village's funeral costs is fantastic. Any idea of what the average cost of a funeral in a village might be? I can't remember if it was mentioned in the vlog. That spot at the edge of the lake for watching a sunset is beautiful. Ss a hobby photographer, I'd love it there. I know a guy who has a spot like that where he takes beautiful sunset or sunrise photos quite often, with the setting or rising sun reflecting in the water. When I get to retire in Thailand, I think that one of my favourite spots for this would be a well known, large lake in Nakhon Sawan. Keep safe and stay healthy.
Hi, stick solar panel(s) on the roof of the 'truck tuk' along with a solar controller and get an electrician to wire the output into the charging circuit; free power / forget about charging. Cost £350 equivalent uk. Thai prices probably much cheaper...
Thank You Mo. You explain about when someone go to Temple. It is common that someone pay to family. I am farang. I live in city. Someday I will live in country. I will remember this Thai custom. I will follow Thai custom
In the village where I have lived for more than 20 years the cost of a funeral is about 180,000 baht......a lot of money for people earning 500 baht a day. ..... about a year's salary. The funeral fund covers about100,000 of that. We pay 225 baht per funeral......last year approx 20 deaths.....ie 4,500 or so a year. Funerals are a real financial burden but there is no way they will be made less extravagant and expensive in the future.
Thailand number 1 in ASEAN, and number 7 in the world with the most inequality of wealth. Look at the Billionaires Thai Elites in Bangkok vs the rest of the country. Its 2 different universities.
Hi Ryan, Love your videos. I was just wondering as I live in the land Down Nuder.( Australia ) will surfshark work there plus Thailand. My wife is Thai. Being retired, we both travel between countries at various times of the year. Keep up the good work on the videos Cheers Ray & Lek
Hi Ray From what I understand it works worldwide but I think there is a money back period so you could try - let me know how you get on so I can better advise other 🙏
Nice opening scene. showing an open burn pile. Gee, one would have thought NOT to do such things. Hence, rural life. Time for villagers to be taught not to open burn during this time of year. Please, no criticism, all of you know how bad the air is this time of year and what needs to be done to clean the air.
Hi Ryan.. what's the licence insurance deal with your electric trike thingy?.. I'd use one of those for getting around Pattaya as I normally walk cos I see far to many bike accidents around town... The price seems very acceptable when compared to a bike. As much as I like walking having some wheels would be cool.
its a bit of a grey area, in rural areas you can get away with it but it shouldnt really be on public roads, you see a number of disabled and EV vehicles knocking about though in pattaya i bet
My wife's auntie is in charge of keeping track of the money contributed for funerals on her Moo. I saw this first time 13 years ago and wondere why I've not heard of this in Western countries. It is extremely expensive (for most Thais) for funeral and burning so this system is kind of like installments on your final journey. 🙏🙏🙏
My wife definitely used the hammock, however she was without a husband for 7 years when I met her, so she did all the man and woman work while raising children. I agree though, In Isaan..definitely more males.
Great video again Damo... to me the local Monks at Temple should pay for funerals. The villagers give money and food their whole life to the monks, so the perfect time for the Monks to give back would be when one of their disciples has passed. The shared funeral fund is a good thing for village people supporting other members of the village ...never heard of this before/ For Ryan, do not believe i have seen a Thai woman in a hammock either. Peace and Love Y'all
Hi , just sent you 1,000 THB on PayPal, love your stuff, you are a good kind man and I have huge respect for you, keep her lit 🔥 and I hope you are feeling mentally well, love to all your family ☘️Kevin
Yes we had a ladyboy family member who was a nurse recently die on her motorbike on the way home. Her parents are the village drunks, everyday and night, always fighting, no job, searching the jungle and rice fields for any fish, animal or insect to eat, and of course always at our door begging for money or food,,They didnt have any money for their ladyboys funeral, except my wifes help and the village households who give 100bt each..it to pay the monks, provide food at the three day cremation event, the coffin and pickup truck to move it on and other sundies..Back in my home country I live in a village, but no one gives money like this, ,Even the motorbike seller the ladyboy both the bike off, paid up money, and the hospital also..and even though the family always had arguments with the drunk parents all the time, even confrontation with machetes, they all helped at the funeral..Now the parents will drink the motorbike / hospital money away, but that is thailand
My ex Thai girlfriend and her mother at about midday they would have a sleep in there hammocks especially when its April. The reason why the broke was because of the design all it took rubber pads to stop the shake it looks a sturdy vehicle its a great run around. As for a funeral I think it's a great idea especially if the man or woman dies without any family which must happen, it is community spirit or as I say good karma for everyone. I have been to a veterans funeral who didn't have any family he died in his sleep, he would have been put in a pauper's grave buried with a plain cross with his name on it but the veterans centre stepped in he had a full veterans funeral his regimental flag draped over the coffin and standard bearers and veterans lining up with there beret, regimental cap badges and medals stand to attention escorting him to his grave and we collected enough money for a headstone 🪦 with his name rank and number on it with the words "lest we forget" on it as a symbol of respect to a fallen soldier.
You didn't ask your wife " when a woman relaxes, why the bed frame but not the hammock " there must be a cultural reason, love to know the answer??????????
@goshawkish sounds like you heard something Ryan said, then tuned out for his words that followed also to what Damo said just after that. Maybe play the video again, when you're not tired or distracted if that was the case.
This happens alot Colin, "usually its Thai guys in hammocks this time of day after working in the rice fields in the early mornings" gets heard as "all Thai guys sitting in hammocks are lazy" haha

Good to see kids playing together outside,not just sat at home playing with phone or tablet

We are similar here but each check in on a list and our 100 baht is noted down.
Such great community spirit. We don't see this very often in the western world. You are blessed to be a part of it. ❤❤

These vlogs done by damo are brilliant. Get well soon ryan. Take care
I had a friend whose well stopped flowing and he took a .22 caliber rifle and stuck down the well a pulled the trigger which unplugged the well.

Again its testimony to the Thai culture and community spirit.
The lake there looks like a great spot to watch the sunset.

my wife's mom and aunt were chilling in the hammock last time I was in Thailand. They often take a nap there when it's the hottest time of the day.
Great video. You guys are living the dream.
My Thai wife often relaxed in a hammock in her village. She did chores in very early morning.
What a beautiful culture sharing the cost of funerals. Community helping each other for the better.
I love the way the fan is use at the start ! Great video thank you !
combination of you and damo doing differnt things on the video is perfect
Awesome video Damo

My wife's aunt works around the house and she loves to sleep in a hammock out by our Thai kitchen in the afternoon.
Do people in rural Thailand use rainwater collection systems? I was a bit surprised to hear that the village has problems with water. It certainly seems to rain enough to make rainwater collection a practical solution, and such systems do not need to be expensive.
Thanks for the views of daily life! Much more interesting than tourist travel videos. :)
In my village 100 baht with funerals and rice and candles. This was 15 years ago. Never saw a woman in an hammock
So beautiful you 2. Enjoy & all joy.
The Thai word for kite is amazing!
Beautiful content as always. Wishing your family all the very best. Will be with my lady for the month of April down in Chalong Phuket
Beautiful video God bless you all always stay safe 🙏 ❤️
My Mother in law will get in the Hammock sometimes. And every time she does, she's asleep in minutes 😂 But they sure do love the Hammocks in Thailand. I think nearly every house has one in my Wife's Village 😅

Love you videos , you are both lovely people, thank you for information, I’m moving to RAYONG, HAVE BEAUTIFUL LADY , REGARDS JIM AUSTRALIA
I like this kind of lifestyle ❤ from singapore moving to south america 😅
Lovely feel good video.
Excellent video, yes I like the countryside. 👍❤️😇
We have two hammocks out back (Essan) Yai, my girlfriend and her younger cousin all use it. I totally agree though that it is usually the men.
Nice outro music

If I was there I would install guttering on the roofing and a rainwater tank to resolve the water shortage.
Thank You Mo. You explain about when someone go to Temple. It is common that someone pay to family. I am farang. I live in city. Someday I will live in country. I will remember this Thai custom. I will follow Thai custom
Here in Fang Min our Farm provides food for Funerals and we give 1000 Baht.
We have the same thing with our water in this village in Tha Mai
1pm. Eat some rice, bamboo root, if your lucky some frog/snake/fish caught on farm. Wash it down with some lao khao. Nawn len ....... 😂😂
my mother in-law loves her afternoon hammock time. in Nong Bua Lamphu province
In the village where I have lived for more than 20 years the cost of a funeral is about 180,000 baht......a lot of money for people earning 500 baht a day. ..... about a year's salary. The funeral fund covers about100,000 of that.
We pay 225 baht per funeral......last year approx 20 deaths.....ie 4,500 or so a year.
Funerals are a real financial burden but there is no way they will be made less extravagant and expensive in the future.
You're right brotha. I never see an older Cambodian lady on hammock..
My wife and mother in law both love the hammock around 2 in the afternoon. Got to have their nappy-poo 🤣🤣🤣
❤❤
Thailand number 1 in ASEAN, and number 7 in the world with the most inequality of wealth. Look at the Billionaires Thai Elites in Bangkok vs the rest of the country. Its 2 different universities.
Hi Ryan,
Love your videos. I was just wondering as I live in the land Down Nuder.( Australia ) will surfshark work there plus Thailand. My wife is Thai. Being retired, we both travel between countries at various times of the year.
Keep up the good work on the videos
Cheers
Ray & Lek
Hi Ray
From what I understand it works worldwide but I think there is a money back period so you could try - let me know how you get on so I can better advise other 🙏
I've seen my Thai mother in law in her hammock every time I visit
Familialy, culturally, diaterily and environmentally wealthy , believe me we are so lonley and isolated here in the West .
"environmentally wealthy"?. didn't you see the open burn pile in the opening scene? That's not environmentally wealthy, health or wise!!
Nice opening scene. showing an open burn pile. Gee, one would have thought NOT to do such things. Hence, rural life. Time for villagers to be taught not to open burn during this time of year. Please, no criticism, all of you know how bad the air is this time of year and what needs to be done to clean the air.
We don’t have funeral sharing in the USA.
Can you get good internet in these regions?
Hi Ryan.. what's the licence insurance deal with your electric trike thingy?.. I'd use one of those for getting around Pattaya as I normally walk cos I see far to many bike accidents around town... The price seems very acceptable when compared to a bike.
As much as I like walking having some wheels would be cool.
its a bit of a grey area, in rural areas you can get away with it but it shouldnt really be on public roads, you see a number of disabled and EV vehicles knocking about though in pattaya i bet
@lifeinruralthailand sure I see alsorts on the roads there. I also see loads of cops stopping people for extra tea money 😁
sounds about right haha
Love your blogs .. Thank you! Doesn't the tuk-tuk require a car plate registration?
we dont think so :)
I see Lao women in hammocks all the time ,but have never stayed in the Thai countryside for any lenght of time.
Same thing in Cambodia. Some are so lazy, they stayed in the hammock for hours.
Wow, nice! Can foreigners live in this village?
Have not seen Alfy lately.
seen many Thai women in hammocks on the small island.
for village funerals, if you want ❤
Teamwork
My wife's auntie is in charge of keeping track of the money contributed for funerals on her Moo. I saw this first time 13 years ago and wondere why I've not heard of this in Western countries. It is extremely expensive (for most Thais) for funeral and burning so this system is kind of like installments on your final journey. 🙏🙏🙏
What's the total kilometers? Perhaps you can include that in your updates. Just a suggestion.
My wife definitely used the hammock, however she was without a husband for 7 years when I met her, so she did all the man and woman work while raising children. I agree though, In Isaan..definitely more males.
👍
Please stop burning land waste.
yes, i made a comment above as well. not too bright of them. One would expect for them not to do this.
My mother in law hits the hammock after a hard days work.
Great video again Damo... to me the local Monks at Temple should pay for funerals. The villagers give money and food their whole life to the monks, so the perfect time for the Monks to give back would be when one of their disciples has passed.

Hi , just sent you 1,000 THB on PayPal, love your stuff, you are a good kind man and I have huge respect for you, keep her lit 🔥 and I hope you are feeling mentally well, love to all your family ☘️Kevin
Hey Kevin. Thanks a lot, we will put it to good use on the farm for the peeps here 🙏🙏
Your very welcome ☘️👍
Yes we had a ladyboy family member who was a nurse recently die on her motorbike on the way home. Her parents are the village drunks, everyday and night, always fighting, no job, searching the jungle and rice fields for any fish, animal or insect to eat, and of course always at our door begging for money or food,,They didnt have any money for their ladyboys funeral, except my wifes help and the village households who give 100bt each..it to pay the monks, provide food at the three day cremation event, the coffin and pickup truck to move it on and other sundies..Back in my home country I live in a village, but no one gives money like this, ,Even the motorbike seller the ladyboy both the bike off, paid up money, and the hospital also..and even though the family always had arguments with the drunk parents all the time, even confrontation with machetes, they all helped at the funeral..Now the parents will drink the motorbike / hospital money away, but that is thailand
you mean "him" don't you since it is impossible to change sexes. Just stating facts and the truth. sorry to hear about him.
My ex mother in law was glued to the hammock.....never in my life have i seen such a lazy person..😂
My ex Thai girlfriend and her mother at about midday they would have a sleep in there hammocks especially when its April.
The reason why the broke was because of the design all it took rubber pads to stop the shake it looks a sturdy vehicle its a great run around.
As for a funeral I think it's a great idea especially if the man or woman dies without any family which must happen, it is community spirit or as I say good karma for everyone.
I have been to a veterans funeral who didn't have any family he died in his sleep, he would have been put in a pauper's grave buried with a plain cross with his name on it but the veterans centre stepped in he had a full veterans funeral his regimental flag draped over the coffin and standard bearers and veterans lining up with there beret, regimental cap badges and medals stand to attention escorting him to his grave and we collected enough money for a headstone 🪦 with his name rank and number on it with the words "lest we forget" on it as a symbol of respect to a fallen soldier.
The only thing wrong with this video is it was too short...
They probably can't get in the hammock because the men are already in them lol
You didn't ask your wife " when a woman relaxes, why the bed frame but not the hammock " there must be a cultural reason, love to know the answer??????????
How many people die from drinking lao khao every day in your village?
but......they do the same things in the same ways and wonder why nothing changes
It is funny that women run hide before they 'put their face on'. Do they think we think they have lips and eyes like that naturally?
wait ... actually many men probably don't know this
พูดไทยไม่เป็นเหรอ
😊❤❤❤❤❤xxxx😊
And not all thai guys sitting in hammocks are lazy?ffs mate sort yourself out
@goshawkish sounds like you heard something Ryan said, then tuned out for his words that followed also to what Damo said just after that. Maybe play the video again, when you're not tired or distracted if that was the case.
This happens alot Colin, "usually its Thai guys in hammocks this time of day after working in the rice fields in the early mornings" gets heard as "all Thai guys sitting in hammocks are lazy" haha
Ryan didn't say that.Watch again then apologise
