      You pair your videos with music beautifully.
      The visual and talking parts of your content work really well together.
      You are very talented.

      @@AntoinetteYvonne Antoinette, I'm so glad to hear your response but it's obvious that you put a lot of thought and work into your vids. The multiple angles, even taking shots from the floor, placing the camera inside the condo and then opening the door from outside. There's a lot of thought there. Don't think that
      this goes unnoticeable. Just saw someone mentioning the music you put in the background is also thoughtful. Good work Antoinette!

    I lived in Bangkok for 4 years, 3 of them working and the other year just enjoying life. Your video makes me nostalgic for the life I had there. It's been 11 years since I left, but I will always have fond memories of the people, the food, the live music, and of just how much I loved my life there. I lived in SUkhumvit for a18 months, and the rest of the time in Sathorn, Soi Suan Plu. Both fabulous experiences. I found it so easy to make friends with locals, and with the expats I worked with. I was on a fairly tight budget but managed to do everything I wanted to do, and to explore many parts of Thailand and neighbouring countries. Loved the cheap markets that you find everywhere, any day of the week. Truly wonderful and I feel blessed to have had the opportunity. I've been back a few times but it was never the same as living there. Things changed, friends moved on, etc. Good on you for making the move! I hope you stay on for a while longer :)

    Hello 👋🏽 Antoinette, I agree when I was stationed in Okinawa and my boyfriend/fiancée taught me some basic phrases in Japanese that I used when ordering food . The natives were welcomingly nice but they never tried to hold lengthy conversations because they knew I didn't know more of their language

    Yes...your skin is looking stunning to match everything else! (Don't take that the wrong way love)...it's been very interesting watching you live there. Honestly, I dream of 'escaping' the USA, especially the way it is here now, we just aren't what we used to be (the media has divided us deep) and I do fear that it's only going to get worse, both financially and socially. My channel is just starting (2yrs) and I'm trying to do van life...been trying...finances keep holding me up and cars either breaking down or vans needing fixed. I'm about to get my van fixed so I will be taking some weekend trips until I grow more, thanks for being an inspiration. ☺

My aunt told me exfoliate with yellow lemon morning and night and then follow your moisturizing and medication routine. Cut a lemon and rub wait 5m than rinse well. I still break out but less often and I find it happens when I neglected it.
