Why I Stopped Making Videos

As promised, here's a link to get Fah to email you the Private Video of me in her Thai Class: www.thailanguagechallenge.com/a/2147830744/LuoaQmd…

คริส ในฐานะคนไทยที่อายุใกล้ๆกับคุณ ผมอยากบอกว่า ในบรรดาช่องชาวต่างชาติ ช่องของคุณเป็นอันดับ1 สำหรับผม ผมได้ติดตามคุณมานาน และได้เห็นคุณทำอะไรหลายๆอย่างเพื่อคนไทยและสังคมไทย ผมต้องขอขอบคุณมากๆ และจะเป็นกำลังใจให้คุณเสมอไป 🥰🥰🥰

I won't say that 'your videos got me to move to Thailand,' but I WILL say that your videos did make moving here a LOT easier to make happen once I did. And I thank you for that.

เป็นกำลังใจให้เสมอครับ 💛

Chris, my family and I are big fans. I'm an expat in my late 20s who moved here solo and works in Bangkok now. I was recently visiting my family and we watched your last video "A Thailand Story You Need To Hear"- it was by far our favorite video of yours. We discussed how documentary style videos really suit you- and how amazing it was that you put an amazing story of hope in the spotlight. With your platform and love of Thailand, you could do a lot of great work here helping out those who need it most.

Even a sit and talk is enjoyable - thank you for everything.

I want to say the best video you ever made in my opinion you weren’t even in. It was the video where you followed the journey of the young teacher as she went up to the remote village where she teachs. You showed the struggles of her life that she faced with determination and a wonderful sense of humour. When i saw the new building that a charity had supplied for her to stay in compared to the old building she shared with rats and snakes there were tears in my eyes. I thought it excellent of you to take a back seat and let the story tell itself. Perhaps you could use this channel to have people who don’t have the subscribers to supply you wonderful videos along the same line. You of course would decide the suitability but it would be fantastic to see more videos like that, than another condo pricing story, not that those aren’t useful.

Chris, you were one of the few YouTubers I watched that made me decide to visit Bangkok and Thailand. I live in the Philippines but really want to make Bangkok a home too at least part of the year. I thank you for your videos, your time, your dedication, and your undying love of Thailand.

Wishing you and your lovely wife a smooth move to Samui. You guys touched many lives with your videos, especially the Christmas celebration at the orphanage's and special schools and the food drives you helped organize during Covid. Thanks for all the joy, educational, and entertaining videos. Cheers.

You come back stronger. Take care for your life. Grettings from Norway.

Love that park! Keep on posting brother, we're waiting!

My partner and I absolutely love your videos. You’re funny and informative and what you’re presenting feels incredibly genuine. Thank you for making us feel that retirement to Thailand from Cardiff in the UK is completely possible for us. Glad you’re better than ok!

Mate! I'm very happy you are coming to Samui where I live now. YOUR videos and what you did for the thai community was amazing during their hard times - I'm a fellow youtuber and can't wait to see you on samui !

Chris, as a regular watcher on your channel, I sincerely appreciate the update. And a HUGE YES, you have positively impacted so many people with your videos. I am so happy to hear you will continue and I will be in Thailand about the time you start back up. And another HUGE YES, you were a major factor in my decision to retire in Thailand, so thank you! Enjoy the break and give that sweet wife of yours a BIG hug.

Your quirky, left field vids have surely been missed Chris having brought so much joy and laughter. Wishing you and Haley a safe and wonderful transition to the land of Samui and what would we like to see moving forward...as someone noted below, what ever brings you joy and a smile to the dial...in only a way that Chris Parker can. 🙏

Excited for all the changes for you Chris, hope you get some well deserved rest/retirement and will continue to be there for any upcoming video. Love the work, thank you

Just finished my honeymoon in Thailand thanks to your videos. Saw all the things in Bangkok you promoted. Good for you man

Nice!! This is the update we all been waiting for ❤️🙏

Thanks Chris for the update - you have been missed. Make videos that provide you with joy and love! No matter what, I will be watching. Can't wait to see the moving to Koh Samui video. What a beautiful place. All the best.

Happy to hear an update from you Chris and happy to hear of your big move, you both deserve it. I was in Thailand not to long ago hoping to run into you but now I know why it didn't happen hahah. I hope to see your upcoming videos where you utilize the Thai language and to see the reaction of Thai people hearing you speak. It's always a good feeling when I was there and spoke Thai I felt that I got more praise from Thai people for doing so and just by attempting to speak their native tongue it really went a long way. Your videos are some of my favorite Thai videos you really show a passion and love for the country which why it always brought me back to this channel and it always will. I still watch videos from the past cause it really puts a smile on my face and always pumps me up to head back ASAP. Take care Chris hopefully when I go back I'll run into you in samui and can mark it off my Thailand to do list. Kob kun mak karp Chris 😊🙏✌️
