Last year I moved out out to a big city for a new job and couldn't come home to visit until well into January. I worked all day Christmas, where we had a pot-luck for lunch, which was awesome. But I got out that night and was driving home looking for somewhere to just grab some food and saw an Indian Restaurant PACKED with cars. So I went in and got some Tikka Masala and Garlic Naan at the bar, and met a ton of new friends old and young just there at a place open on Christmas Night. It was amazing sharing some drinks and great food and sharing stories about why we were away from everyone that year. I called my family that night and they were SO happy to hear I made something special and new out of the night even though I couldn't be home. There is nothing like being with family and friends for the Holidays, but there is also something uniquely special about making an amazing night out of something that could just be at your apartment alone, and it takes a community and a bit of courage to go out and do that. I'll never forget that Christmas.

I really, truly hope you find it within yourself to change, grow, and connect. Strangers are only strangers until you get to know them. Much love and peace to you during the upcoming holidays.

I saw my nephew do this with my sister, and she says the same thing as you… that she doesn’t know why etc Yet he has outright said exactly what is wrong and she refuses to listen or believe him. She brushes him off as if he’s making a big deal of things. She is disrespectful with his choices and tries to control him - and everyone else - which is why she is now alone. All I’m saying to you is, be honest with yourself and go digging. Really look at yourself and find patterns of behaviour. Get really humble, write him a letter and apologise for all your mistakes and that you want to listen and really hear his heart… He would have said why, perhaps you ignored him or brushed off his concern’s because they don’t matter to you? Kids don’t just do drastic things like that for no reason

The last 5 years i live in England (45 years old now), and i was supporting financially my parents however i could. The point is that when my dad died hundreds of people was calling to my mom for condolences and then we discover that my dad was taking his money (50 euros or less..) for shoping and was buying meat and vegies for poor people that he knew in other villages. He never ever said something to anybody. We found out now. I couldn't be in the funeral, didn't say a proper good bye whet. Dad i love you. Panos.

I am very sorry for your loss.

My minds blown. I watched the Compton video first. And then this one. Never having seen you before and my heart feels happy. What you did there is and always had been a passion of mine. You were amazing. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And Happy New Year. God bless you.

Absolutely love what you've done there. Sad that "being alone" became a bitter reality for a large part of humanity not even three months later. I hope that most people can spend their holidays together again this year.

This was awesome. You should be proud. As someone who moved to Canada not knowing anyone i would of loved to have had something like this to attend. Hopefully it becomes a tradition.

I never disappointed by this channel, beginning to end I watched it with the smile.

Oh man, it's great that you got the space & ingredients for the meal for sure, but to have 3 cooks & a bartender to help out with the preparation of that entire meal on Christmas eve is above and beyond awesome! Was that voluntary or did they get paid by your boss (the dude who 'donated' the use of the space)? Edit: I commented too soon again, it was voluntary, that is so incredibly sweet of those guys!

As someone who’s spent 3 years in a row alone during the holiday season you have no idea how much this warms my heart seeing this! Thank you so much for all you do for people

I can relate to this so much. I used to go to waffle house on Thanksgiving and Christmas for dinner because it was the only place open. I would tip each worker and cook 10$ because it's all I really could afford to do, but with my family 1000 miles away and me not being able to afford missing work, it was the only option. I'll forever respect waffle house workers.

I was inspired by you so I just invited all of my neighbours to celebrate christmas in my place if they are alone. I myself am not alone and am celebrating with my mother and sister on the 25th, so on the 26th, which we call "second christmas day" in the Netherlands, everyone is welcome in my home.

As someone who can barely order a pizza or make a doctor's appointment on the phone it baffles me that you had the courage to contact so many people and make this happen. Stuff like this really dispels that detached and isolated feeling I get when I think about strangers. The world is more beautiful than I think and the people in it can be wholesome. Also, it's absolutely AMAZING that Kerry from the previous video helped get the word out. It goes to show that small acts of kindness and making a connection with a stranger one day can ripple out to help you later. So much good feels.

These videos really just get to me man. I love seeing strangers come together to celebrate not just a holiday, but togetherness. These types of moments are how lifelong friends are made in my opinion, and I am so glad that these people were not alone on Christmas after all. And honestly I felt so bad for the guy who said his parents were vacationing in China. I could tell he was holding back some pain. Glad he got to eat a great meal instead of McDonald's! Thanks for all these wonderful videos you upload.

This made me cry but smiled at the same time because I’m a lone for the holidays now that my parents have passed away. But I’m grateful for all of the memories I have of the times I shared with them. GOD BLESS YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS!!!!

I think the true hero’s here are the cooks whom worked so hard to feed those wonderful people. HUGE thanks to them, I hope they got to enjoy time with either their families at home OR everyone else at the party.

I know full well just how hard it can be in the kitchen because you're always in the background while people get to enjoy your passion. It's so amazing to see chefs and cooks that are still passionate about their craft. You can tell they're plenty happy just seeing people enjoy their food. They even worked in the holidays for free. Seriously, I wish for nothing but success and good fortune for the kitchen staff and the maker of this video. PS. Bless whomever the dishwasher(s) were.

When you're not there at the same placee and time, but still get the happy vibes this guy give to us.

When he said "maybe next year invite one or 2 strangers" I fucking sobbed thinking about the year to come.

The smiles everyone has, everyone talking, the laughter in the background during the present game.. Not gonna lie, teared up a bit. This right here, this is why I never get sleep and browse youtube into the morning hours. Makes me so happy that there are people like you out there. What an amazing person you are, showing us again and again to let go of prejudice, fear of the unknown and embrace human connection.
