That's a great love story. Not only did you find your soul mate through travel, you found your WHY. You took risks and succeeded.
-
You're exactly what I'd imagine a young chris would be, dorky, cringy hippie but strangely likeable and someone I would root for. Thank you for sharing your beautiful story, wholesome all the way through. Yes, I come for the thai vids but definitely make time to edit these blast from the past vids please, thanks chris!
-
Holy fuck, that video just hit me incredibly deep. You made me cry like a baby. One of the most touching thing I've seen on youtube. I really need to reassess things in my life.
-
Chris ! I just wanted to let you know you are a great story teller and the love of you and Hailey have! So heart warming!
-
Thank you for showing us important parts of your life. I was always curious of how you two met and ended up in Thailand so thanks a lot for elaborating that, your love story is very lovely! I'm proud of what you've become and how much you've done for Thailand and our communities. Keep on rocking! 🌟🌟

You MUST put all you films together into a full length movie .AWESOME. Then release it at Cannes , it would win!

Great video Chris! The nostalgia brought a tear to my eye. Loved the old videos, hope to see more! Your inspiration has led me to make big changes... There will be another crazy Canadian in Thailand!!
-
Chris this was so heart touching! I want to admit that I did have tears in my eyes and felt so emotional with your story. You are truly my favourite YouTuber.
-
Truly spectacular; 1974 you must have used a Super 8 to film, this one has it all A Time Traveler, Love, loss, Romance, Adventure! From Borneo to Kuia; the world is your stage Chris! We are in the theater, pas the popcorn!
-
This was absolutely brilliant!! The way you transitioned between your old videos and the current video was a work of art almost as if 20 years ago you knew you'd release this video. Brilliant! Keep it up 🙏🏻
-
Since I am older I can see how our future paths can take unpredicted turns and give us joy… if we take chances. I loved this segment & knowing about your “younger days”.

Hello Chris. I am a Korean subscriber who has been watching since your subscriber 300. The story of you, your wife, and Korea comes to you in a special way. Looking at the videos of your youth, it seems that you have been prepared for decades as a YouTuber. I am looking forward to your other Thai stories. May you be healthy and God's blessings be with you.
-
I really really really enjoyed this video! So fun seeing you both in your twenties 😊
-
Wow, Chris! Your story and video chronicles over the decades are brilliant. I don't even know where to begin, but I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this video. Maybe it was a bit of me relating to the Korean culture and my childhood since my stepmom and sisters are from Seoul. Or, maybe it was seeing your personal transformation and ending up with the love of your life. Regardless, this video was wonderful! Go ahead and add another vote for more videos from the past! -Jordan

-
This has been my favorite video so far, and I really really love your videos!!! What an amazing talent you have! I woud love to see more of these throwbacks. Oh and I love Haley! she is so adorable 🥰
-
Chris, you sent pat kra pow into space and helped underprivileged kids in Thailand, so those vids can't be topped, but this is seriously, seriously, seriously up there with your best work! Just fantastic! I felt like I was watching the retro scenes in Forest Gump. Loved it man! Also, thanks for filming in Itaewon. I haven't been in like 12 years and often miss that place.

Aloha from Honolulu, HI. That was such a touching video. No cringe. Just the beauty and innocence of youth in full display, and the trajectory of a man who has lived life to its fullest. I'm actually coming to Thailand in a couple of weeks for the first time, armed with Teenee and all the information and knowledge you've shared. Mahalo.
