Hi JC & Nat!!
Excellent update! Chock full of good info. I noticed last week that Nat had the spot on her nose taken care of.. I hope it was benign like maybe a mole? Curious: Did you try your 35% H2O2 solution on it first?
FINALLY teaching Nat to drive the truck! I remember when Nok first came to America, I taught he to driv in my full-size Chevy extended cab pickup. Nothing that big in Thailand and she had never driven anything other than a motorbike and farm vehicles before, maybe like Nat. I took her to a large church parking lot to learn.. When she (and I) felt she was ready we went to the local DMV for her tests. She passed the driving test on her first try, but the written test.... Her English wasn't that good back then . In Jackson Hole it was only available at that time (2008) in English so... To find one in Thai, we would have had to go to LA! They were very patient at the DMV and she finally passed on her ELEVENTH try! We always has full size trucks in America and we finally got her a Chevy Tahoe for her won to drive.
When I retired and we moved to LOS in 2016, we bought a new Toyota 4dr pickup and because I was having a hard time adapting to driving on the wrong (?) side, she drove mostly. When my Thai 2 year driver's license expired, I was so comfortable with her driving I let bit lapse.. She's an excellent driver, probably the best in her family! End of story!
I'm enjoying the updates a LOT! And the frequency is just fine with me. I imagine it takes you a lot less time to produce, too.
A beautiful park to film! Close to home?
On Thai massage: When I first came to Thailand (maybe 2006) it was to Bangkok and I got probably that you referred to for about TB 300 for about 1 1/2 hours.
Nok trained at Wat Po Traditional Medical College in Bangkok for Thai Massage in 2003 and that's what she does for me and family. I'd be curious to know what the ones you mentioned are doing today that you mentioned to know the difference. Nok uses acupressure mostly. Since my injury, I have been doing stretching exercises similar to yoga and I am not needing a massage very often.
One more thing: I wish Nat's You Tube channel was available in English or I could get an English translation!
Now that I've composed this I think maybe it's too long for a comments so I'm going to copy and paste it to an email to you and you can edit it if you find anything you might this is interesting to members.

I think it is coconut oil that another YouTuber swears by to keep the sand fleas away. Slather it on before going to the beach.
