Hi Todd, great show as always. The information is orally handed down through the generations. The Indigenous Aboriginal people of Australia, did this for over 60,000 years, wrap your mind around that!. Keep up the good work mate, 😋🖐👍.
This trip is epic Todd, thanks for taking us along mate
Really enjoy your adventures, hello from Alaska and Philippines
My Best Utube blogger!! Thanks

@Now in Lao Thanks for the great content. It is much appreciated.
Hi Guy's What an amazing part of the world you have reached, truly the the top of the world. When you look at the road conditions, and look at all the development that there is, you have to wonder how they actually got all those materials up there, and the price the locals would have to pay for all that extra freight cost. Great footage as always, and amazing courage driving on those road in 2 wheel drive.
Hey brother,,, spectacular,,stupendous,,amazing! Great vid bro! The Stones,,,one of my all time top 5 favs. Best use of this song in a movie,,The Big Chill from 1983. Friends gathered for one of their friends funerals,,and one of the women sat at an organ and played the opening notes of this song. Was perfect. The country you went thru was amazing,,kind ,friendly people. The tea trees were cool,,the green whiskey process was amazing. I was struck again by your knowledge of plants. Maybe you and my Dad can start a garden and plant store,,call it "The Old Man and The Aussie,,,,Bush masters "lol interesting building style up there. Cool place. Thanks Todd Ttyl,,,Marlon
You're right a little piece of heaven
Nice village 🥰🙏
Interesting places you been too .. what an adventure
There’s a great Aussie saying “ if it’s flooded floor it” 😂
I think this is one of your best travels; so far, The scenery the interaction of you and the people/animals' just nice. Scenery is stunning camera positioning great and the green whiskey. Hope to visit Laos again.

Awesome trip up Northern Laos, Todd and Neenee. Amazing video series, beautiful scenery and every town/village you guys go people look very happy and friendly.
Awesome video! Thank you
What an adventure! Beautiful viewing Todd and Neenee, thank you for it. Touching tribute to your Nan at the tea farm. Loved the black and white stills, as always, and clever going into the colour at the end. Quality 👌
That triggered some memories Todd. Nice touch at the end mate. Glad to see your Black & Whites.
Super interesting video… especially the green whiskey village and factory. Loved your series in Phongsali. What a unique and fascinating Lao town. Love the history. We’re watching you from the U.S.!!
Todd, you don't pretend, Ha, you eat Alby mangles for breakfast Cmon, Green Corn Whiskey, you like it yeah. Well done to the both of you for your honesty and generosity to the Laos people. 😂🤗.

When we come back I want to try the green whiskey!!
Loved the video. Would loved to try the Green Whisky one day. Sorry to hear your Nan has passed away.
They are such gentle and friendly people. Just love your travels.
60% would be 120 proof - somewhere between Wild Turkey 101 and Bacardi 151. Very different method of fermentation and distilling. Very interesting. Thanks Todd
ty..xoxo 🥰🖐👍🤟✌🤪
I would love to try the pure whiskey that you nag Nini drank. The green whiskey color that is made from the bitter melon leaves that you and Nine saw while the man chopped from the hands. All the pure whiskey is good for cooking with squirrel meats, goat meats, sheep meats and lemur meats. But my recommendation to you that don't drink that strong alcohol while you're operating a machine because the road condition is looking bad shapes.
Love the Dallas Cowboy star ⭐️ tattoo…Are you a fan ? Or just love the star ?
Alby Mangles 😂😂😂😂😂😂 That’s a blast from the past mate 🤣🤣🤣
What was the elevation of that tea plantation? I live at 4200 feet, but would probably be puffing and wheezing up that hill too. I'm not telling you anything you don't already know, but There are some beautiful women in Laos, like the girl you asked for directions. I need to go there, get a couple bottles of the green liquor for my brothers-in-law back in Da Nang. Keep making the great content!
I struck up a conversation with a thai lady in a coffee shop in Newcastle , spoke of youtube and that I planned to go to Laos this Christmas, she said watch Now In Lao, I said I did, she said that you Todd are from Cessnock. You crack me up with the Aussieisims, I wonder what the British or Americans think about that 5555

Where is your restaurant located...will definitely stop by to try that green liquor when im in Laos again.
Since you are an Aussie. I imagine you have tried ouzo. How green liquor compare? Stay safe.
Thanks for showing us this amazing country..As for that green moonshine what is the normal use or frequency of use is it just available after harvest or do they pour it on their cornflakes everyday is it only a party or festive thing etc. Anyway cheers I hope to be getting some Lao dirt on my shoes within the next year.Keep up the amazing work kudos for the nice editing and those B&W stills which absolutely rock
I was raised poor, these are my kind of people

dude don't knock it until you've tried it on my first visit to south east Asia I came across a construction crew out in the jungle. being a farm boy I jumped in boots and all to give them a hand. at the end of the day it was time for refreshments. they drank the same rocket fuel that they ran there tractors on , it's something I'll never forget for the rest of my life.
