No words to thank you enough for sharing to the world 🌎 the beautiful Lanta , but especially your own life & business . It’s so amazing! P/S Only if you have time to answer : what time of the year it’s the high season in Lanta ? Greetings from SWITZERLAND 🇨🇭 .🙏🤗🤍
Greetings from Malaysia, will pay a visit, hopefully in year 2023
@chenyung8154 I think your life style is beautiful 😍 🤩 👌
@@SweetLifeLanta I would encourage you to share with them Djeasy Mixmaster on CZcams for some really authentic Jamaican reggae music mixes to play on a daily basis in his business.
@Chen Yung one love ❤️
I went to Koh Lanta because of this video, and I met Ning and ate there many times! Really incredible, vegan choices are great and he often made food that was not on the menu for me. It was a great island too and a great experience! Thank you
Wow that's so cool! Thanks for sharing this with me!
"I never try to force my kid, whatever he wants to do I'm happy for him.I only care that he will be a good person"❤️❤️
So beautiful isn't it?
Have to give a chil boundaries and discipline though
If everybody would grow up like that, the world would be a great place!
One love from Jamaica to Thailand... Thanks for embracing our culture, I wish the younger generation could realize how Reggae music is loved all over the world and try to preserve our music and culture. #blessings
people like old time reggae music. ie bob marley. not todays trash in jamaica.
I often find that those who live simply - live stress free and are happy. Ning has great energy and a heart full of love. And Ning's mother is such a wonderful, accepting, unconditionally loving woman. This video warms my heart and makes me smile.
So happy to hear that! I get those same warm feelings ❤️❤️❤️❤️
he is really unhappy.. you people have no people reading skills :-D
@@jaycubade he seems pretty happy to me? What mannerisms indicated he is unhappy to you? I’m genuinely curious.
Looks like a welcoming place to make friends, eat good food, pet the cats and dog 🐈⬛🐕and smoke a little weed and just chill. Thank you for sharing this video.
Yes, exactly that!
I’m a Jamaican and I’ll be visiting Thailand soon. Hope to meet them. So proud to see my culture being appreciated.
You will love it here! Lots of your beautiful culture here.
What a genuine happy lovely couple who shared their life's story to us all. They have created an idylic lifestyle for themselves in their piece of paradise. I wish them many years of travellers to their welcoming business on the beach!
Yeah so amazing to get the whole story behind and meet people who are so passionate about their choices.
Hi im from jamaica nice to meet you love the vibes...Bob Marley icon
Amazing that we have viewers from Jamaica! We love it!
SO lovely to be living in this beautiful way ...thank you all for sharing !....Best Wishes everyone ...
Big hugs!
I see that I have the honor to write the first comment.
I really loved the video. A lovely couple that made me smile throughout the video, And of course Maayan that knows how to bring out the beauty and simplicity of life in every story.......... 🌹❤️🌹❤️
Your kind words mean a lot to me. Love you always and can't wait to have you in my arms again soon.
@@SweetLifeLanta ❤️❤️❤️
@@talsapir Hello everyone!
We are new AMWF content creator.
I'm from Bangkok and my gf's from Scotland.
It is good to see an AMWF content creator on CZcams.
Have a nice day/evening everyone!
🇹🇭🇬🇧
Paul and Jay
A wonderful story with Ning and Ai, so peaceful and humble. Nice music of Bob Marley, and at end Stand by me, watching from Germany 🇩🇪❤
Thank so much for watching and all your comments and support! Big hugs!
Wow so happy to see a country as rich in culture as Thailand embracing my culture. One love. A place to add to the travel list for sure. Much respect Ning 🇯🇲 💯 Thank you for this video.
You can see that Ning has a beautiful soul. Happy vibes in this video. 🥰✌
I know, he's just so so good
Peace, Love, nature.. No war. Good one. Treat everyone with kindness and respect. Thumbs up. And wishing ypu both good vibes, all the way.
This video spreads good vibes around the world!
@@SweetLifeLanta Russian and Ukrainian should see this video. Have peace, make love and no war. Just like an Israelí lady friend would do - travel across the globe to find true love and happiness waiting for her in a remote and tranquil love island known as Koh Lanta. And they lived happily ever after 😂 😆 😝 ( letting my mind run free on a calm Sunday morning LOL ) She will find her life long partner tomorrow because tomorrow is Mon……or Monday. He he he.
@douglastan7084 hahahahaha! Douglas, I love it, just let your mind go nuts and imagine this crazy story (crazy that it actually really did happen right?!)
If all humans were like Ning, we wouldn't even have a word for war or even know what it was...
I hung out there in 2019, I'm from the Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago, and they treated me like family, I even plugged my phone into the system and played some roots & culture for them, Great vibes. "One Love"
It's such a great place to hang and feel like part of a family. Big hugs
No ganja in Trinidad... 🤔🤙
@@navigator4709 I've never tried weed or alcohol, good vibes have nothing to do with getting high. #rastabusiness
@@omode868 i don t drink every day, i don t smoke every day, i am a free man with no addiction who judge nobody.
I too smiled from ear to ear Mayaan😁. You’re a gem of a woman and you keep finding these special and interesting gems to interview❤Ning has such a wonderful soul… you see it in his eyes. He exudes peace and love. Love the voice of the singer of ‘Stand by me’
If ever there was an award for a best vlogger in Thailand, it would go to none other than Mayaan 🎉. Keep it coming. You inspire me soooo much Mayaan. Thanks again for your incredible content. Love you much❤
Wow I got an award for best vlogger in Thailand from you! I'm so happy! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏 the island is full of inspiring people so finding them is not so difficult, just finding the time is difficult for me hahaha...
Make love, not war. Takes me back to the summer of love, 1967. Glad the spirit lives on. Another great interview., M! Thanks for posting.
I love his genuine hippie style. We need more of him in the world.
Nice one Mayaan. Back in the flow - cuts are getting smoother - story breezes effortlessly. Really cool portrait that conveys the sweet soul of people & place.
I found my niche! Love doing these!
Beautiful story 😍❤️💛💚👍🏻Best of luck to Ning and AI .
🥰🥰🥰
I so loved this - you have a really nice interview style, asking the questions and then giving space to the people to answer without interrupting them ❤
Sometimes I do it right! 😂😂😂 (sometimes I look at the footage and think, stop interrupting! We live and we learn I guess...)
Yes so smart compared to most annoying youtubers. You just need to add some more KA or KRAP when ypu speak, it sounds nicer to Thai.
Great message to the world, and lovely music! Thank you for sharing their story! 💛
🥰🥰🥰 thanks so much. I also love Ning's personality and message.
11:16 What great words! We all need to think like that and the world will be a better place :)
Peace and love to all!
Aww..just seeing this😍 nuff respect Ning..greetings from Jamaica 🇯🇲 one love 💕🇯🇲
Awesome that our story arrived all the way to Jamaica!!!
Such lovely kind hearted people I don’t smoke weed but I’d love to visit then and eat homemade authentic food at their place thank you Maayan for your very beautiful video I love your channel sweet life lanta
Yes you can visit them somedays! The weed is not for everyone 😂😂😂
@@SweetLifeLanta that would be nice to visit
Wonderful video! When watching your content there never a boring moment. It's not only entertaining but also educational like a mini documentary... I just love it :)
Yeah mini documentary! I love this name 😍😍😍
Another beautiful, sweet love story Maayan! I could feel the sea breeze and taste that Pad Thai. Thankyou Ning and Ai for sharing your story. I’m smiling 100%! 🙏🏽😀🥰
Right?! It's a 100% smile kind of video. Me too!
Great story of a very nice lovely couple Mayaan, - he shows, that self-actualization is important in Life, and she is a strong woman with open heart, i am impressed about her strenght. Rasta Ning and his mother and Ai are impressive people ! Ty ! Love this portraits👍💘
I love it that all prejudice I might have about anyone here - are not valid. These are real people with good hearts, a mind of their own and lots of love and strength indeed. People just keep surprising me.
Good realization that Ning had, you can smoke, but not over indulge as there is important work to do, wish everybody had that kind of sensibility!
Haha sooo cool. I just got recommended this video and thought to myself „I‘ve seen this guy“.
At first I thought I know him from KohPhangan. But when they told that this is Koh Lanta, I remembered. I met him in january 2017 when he was working for someone else. It was a laid back place with beach huts. We had a chill conversation and he played the same „welcome to lanta“ on his guitar for us.
Funny that I see him on youtube now. I am happy to see he is still enjoying life and doing his thing now.
So awesome! Google just knows everything about you! Hahaha... but I'm glad you enjoyed my video.
I love them.I love Bob Marley Reggae. ONE LOVE. I see Ning loves cats and so do I and it looks so relaxing there. Peace and Love. So nice. I wish I could get there to your island somehow. Thank you for the video. God Bless you and your family. xoxox
Yes his heart is full of love for everyone around, all the animals and nature. Such a kind soul.
I like your video an song as well may I know the name of this song please
Mayaan, I always look forward to seeing your videos because your interviews are always so interesting. Your voice is soft & calming, I could literally listen to you interview all day long! Thank-you for capturing the essence of Ning & Ai. They are happy living a simple life together and giving of themselves to others. It is beautiful to see how Ning loves & cares for his animals and how his music fills his heart & spirit. Much love to you all!❤️🇨🇦
Such beautiful and kind people isn't it?! It's such a pleasure for me to do this work. Thank you for your beautiful and encouraging words.
Met a guy like him on koh Phi Phi. 2002/2003. He had a bar right on the beach. Friends from across the planet. Remembered every single face. It was the most beautiful time in my life. Thailand is AMAZING. I loved the people, their mentality... Is he still alive? Because his island was hit by the giant waves.
Great 'reggae' music he plays, one of my favorites 🎵🎶. Fabulous interview, again, your a natural communicator interviewer...... 😉. Capturing the water 🌊 rolling in plus sunset - stunning. Individual talking to both of them was sweet 😘. I saw that *Pad Tai food dish & have had it here in the U.S.A., so 😋 yummy. You made my "Saturday evening, content" ✌️☮️ 😏. Many thanks
Yoohoo! I'm so happy to make your evening!
@@SweetLifeLanta So interesting enjoyable ..... Appreciate your connecting back with me too 😊
Pad Thai Song ❤️☺️ I heard this song performed by Ning a few years ago. Soooo happy to see this CZcams Video of him, his lovely wife and this amazing place 😍
That's awesome! So glad you got to watch this!
I am there almost everyday and eat and Chill. ❤️😎Ning an Ai is the ❤️❤️
Amazing! Who are you?
@@SweetLifeLanta i was in Kambodsja when u was there. I am a New friend of Ning since september. Ps Thommy is my name
@user-yw1zu1mz7c awesome! So how did you like the video as a good friend? Did it bring over the atmosphere and the feelings you have about the place? Anything I missed?
Oh I really love these videos, how these people have created their own little piece of Paradise and a successful family business. through perseverance and a lot of hard work. So well presented and I loved the way you integrated a few tourists into the video. Very natural and real time story telling. Awesome. Also noted with absolute delight you not missing a trick and picking up on the 'message to the world'' conclusion. Chai will have a big smile seeing that as I did. As always, great work Maayan and thanks for sharing 🤩
Hahahah yeah, got inspired by Chai for sure! Thank you Steven! This week no video. The week went by so fast and I hadn't even opened my computer once hahaha
What a life.. everyone looks so stress-free & incredibly healthy!
7:39 moms got great skin, wrinklefree & the way she looks over 😁 she's a proud mom!
Life can be tough sometimes but people here have amazing attitude. Maybe it's waking up surrounded by nature every day. Brings happiness to the heart ❤️
Love your creative eye & stories, thank you for sharing.

Peace, Love everybody, no war.. we need that so much in the world today. Thank you for reminding us Maayan.
May God Bless everyone in this beautiful video❤❤

Good to see you back.👍😉
Sweet Maayan: Your generous soul is so appreciated and shines through your beautiful videos, bringing us love and wisdome. You show us the true meaning of love for life and that simplicity is where it's at. The life of Ning and his family are an example of the importance of living in harmony with nature.

I loved this vid dearly. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful like Reggae. The Reggae music is ideal for the beaches, palm trees, blue skies, and universal love and happiness. Love Ning’s smile so much, and his simplicity. I can’t wait to visit Thailand this year. I definitely will go to see this happy family at their restaurant and bar. I love Pad Thai. Thank you so much Ning, Ai, mum, friends for sharing a day in this uplifting environment. The message is pure satisfaction about doing what you love doing. Blessings, hug from Brighton, Melbourne Australia - I am also living close to the beach 🏝, and love it. ❤🙏❣️❤️ have subscribed.
