This is exactly what Christmas is about. What a heart warming story.
Well said!
This should be a kids book in the making
Wow they let in a whole family… they are the type who actively and actually make the world better 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
with weather like that outside.. you've got to be a multimillionaire evangelical minister with no soul to turn away fellow humans in need.
@@naranja1972 Give me a break. Joel Osteen didn't want a bunch of dirty hurricane casualties contaminating his $70 million mega church. After all, even Christ said that the poor and destitute will always be with us.
It's not a family. Just all tourists from South Korea.
@@taiweannoona1204 why would they be family if they're complete strangers?
@@taiweannoona1204 That's not what the guy meant though, he actually thought they were a traveling family that were related by blood. No need to get philosophical, it was the literal use of the word family he meant.
"They made my honeymoon so great" awee, I know it is not what he had in mind, but the appreciation is heartwarming.
It is so heartwarming to see people helping strangers (and making new friends in the process)! This was such a big storm; I'm glad the Korean tourists were safe!
God bless Alex and Andrea Campagna. I have a feeling I will not be the only one sending them a card and a small gift after seeing this story.
@@dae6736 Don't bet on it not happening. I have Doctor Campagna's address and in the past I have given either money or gifts to deserving people and causes. You think you know me? HA! I even send money twice a year to Wikipedia to keep it going.
@@rr7firefly bless your soul
We need more people like Alex and Andrea in the world 🥺🙏❤️💚
This kind of story doesn’t fit RUclips algorithms but is exactly what we really need : human kindness when fellow ppl are in need, heart warming
It's so wholesome bc it's almost like a big gathering with how comfortable they were able to shelter in those nice strangers house
I love nice people
What a heartwarming story.
At least they wouldn't go back to South Korea and tell their folks that they got robbed and saw shootings.
This is so pure and wholesome
This is such a sweet story. I'm so glad to hear about people who are kind and caring.
The hosts and the wedding party have had unforgettable experience.
Congratulations to the happy couple! 💝
We've done this too. During the heavy rains and floods of Mumbai back in 2005, me and my family hosted 6 complete strangers for a night in our tiny 1 bedroom apartment. They didn't know each other as well. My mom made food for all and then most of us slept on the floor for the night. An unforgettable experience.
Buffalo people are some of the kindest and most real people I have met. When I visited they always welcomed me with open arms regardless of race, background and social status. I love the people there and also the food too!
What an amazing thing to do! Kindness goes a long way. They also have a great story to tell for many years to come!😊
This is so cute! Bless this couple for their hospitality especially for the honeymooners!
God Bless these people ❤️ We need more of them in our crazy messed up world
Dear Mr. And Mrs. Compagna,
On behalf of South Korea, we thank you for your generosity and kindness to open your door to keep our fellow South Korean in safe place!
Thank you so much! Please visit South Korea 🇰🇷 someday, and Koreans will return your generosity with warm welcoming 🙏
I would of done the same. This story proves there are still some good people in the World.
I love this story! It proves there still are great people out in the world!
what wonderful people and I hope the hosts had the feeling they received more than they gave, and memories and friends for a lifetime
Dr. Alex is one of the most Genuine, kind, hilarious, human on Earth. I worked for him as his assistant in General Dentistry. It's in his character to do the upmost act of faith, I respected you back then and even more so now, way to go Dr.Alex and his wife #1Dentist🙏💕
Thank God this couple was warm and welcoming This could have been a completely opposite story with a sad ending due to all the senseless hate in our country. Love wins!❤
These stories makes you feel better after a bitter storm and hard times 🙏
It is extremely difficult to let a stranger into the house and thier to sleep for two nights. God bless the kind, nice and heartwarming couple who saved the strangers. Also, thank you for welcoming Koreans nicely👍
They were very fortunate to have met such good Samaritans. Great story~
We are so grateful they helped them and that they posted it on social media so everyone could see how good of people they are. God bless them keep posting all their good deeds so we could keep them in our thoughts.
Good deeds shouldnt need recognition
Very nice. This is a part of what life is about. The relationships you build along the way make life worthwhile. And this is how I see Americans; as generous and giving people. As Americans we have forgotten this due to all the divisiveness going on within our country in the recent years.
No doubt the sight of kindness is not only influential, but beautiful to God's eyes. God bless the couple ❤️💯
Awesome, we all hope someone would do the same for ourselves and our loved ones in times of trouble!
Sometimes we judge people coming to visit from out of the country and I'm glad they felt welcomed during Christmas🌲👏
For real....this made me cry and smile. The best combo!
Really is a lovely story, these people will be friends for life
Great story for what could have been a worse situation. Nice people
They are truly angels 😇 💜 💖 Wow! That is such a beautiful story.
Very heartwarming story. In a heartbreaking season of losses of life. Due to the historic storm. Stay safe everyone. Please stay home.
Truly in the spirit of the season, this generous couple stepped forward. Amazing. Good for them.
This something that I wish mankind can hope to do. It's wonderful good people like Alex and Andrea still exist out there. God Bless your hearts for being so kind and generous.
These are my favorite kind of stories!❤
Koreans and Americans ❤❤❤love the Korean culture live there for a year. Soo many great places and food. I’m glad you were stuck together!!
I served in the Army, and was stationed in Korea. If they offered to cook Korean food, I'd be all for it. I wonder how much stuff thost folks had on hand.
This is my America.... Enough with all the negativities start showing more stories like these!!!!
Welcome to south korea! Beautiful couple!
Amazing couple....kindhearted.
Hallmark's TV "Stranded in Christmas" coming soon!
There's still some hope left for humanity!
More of this please !!! Thanks for sharing !!!
*There's also a barber who let people know on social media that he still had heat and anybody in need is welcome. He opened up his barbershop for a few days to strangers to get warm and gave a few hair cuts to boot! He said one person knocked on his door with a pail face and blue or purple fingers.*
Bringing back to humanity need to see this positivity ❤❤❤
Wow... thank you God for saving the visitors through this wonderful family...
Love to see the kindness!!
That is true heartwarming American Values come to the need for strangers to avoid a storm when it's needed. Good memories for them to share. Good on them. God Bless.
Love this! Family for life now!
Nice to see nice people helping
Such a sweet couple. 💗sending love from Canada 🇨🇦
I would do the same. I've been to Japan. I love South Koreans 🇰🇷 💕 💗
Good Samaritans and Good Americans. Nice to see that still exists somewhere.
and its in this story and we see what America Truly is.
The Warmth and Light of the world, inviting those in need in from the cold.
We spend so much time worrying about how different we are, instead of sharing our Culture with one another.
Maybe if more people are like Alex and Andrea this year, we can finally get back to Being United.
Faith in humanity RESTORED!!! What a wonderful story. My mama always says, “The only reason we are here on earth is to love and serve one another.” God bless and keep us all. 🙏🏻❤️
American generosity and kindness at heart !!!
What a beautiful story. This is what America is about.
What an awesome story. Nice people all around helping each other.
That 22 year old who died could have walked to any of the houses like these tourists did and she would have lived do not stay in your vehicles if there is heated shelter nearby snow drifts will bury your exhaust and you will suffocate or freeze to death when you run out of fuel. Good on these people for stepping up and likely making life long friends in the process.
Buffalo really is the city of good neighbors
The world needs more stories like this told.
They have a few places to stay when they decide to visit South Korea.
What a Christmas Story. . .
There are really angels among us👼...
Very kind people!
PURE AWESOMENESS! ❤️❤️❤️My kind of Story! PTL for Good People!
God bless this couple for saving these people!!
Why is this not spread all over the news? We need to feed as much goodness in this world instead of the negativity.
Amazing what a blessing
YES! Hospitality, especially in a disaster! My father told me it was rarely convenient to do the right thing, but it showed who you were. And that includes strangers of all types!! Blessed Be!!!
These people r such beautiful souls .. God bless 🙏
