Thanks. The pics were funny and good but the music was loud and sounded like it came from a horror movie. lol

I should use that as our trailer or something. lol

Next time, remember to put the full URL in the description so that it's clickable, like this: http://www.happierabroad.com

And it'd be great to have the URL in the screen captions as well, like this: HappierAbroad.com

Thanks,
Winston

Wonderful. Just change the cheesy music though.

Actually, the music is the best part of the video. The music is unnerving at the beginning (to show how unnerving Winston's life was in the US) then, the music is uplifting at the end, to show how uplifting Winston's life became after he went abroad. So the music fits the video perfectly. The music is from the horror movie, "Wes Craven's New Nightmare" a very good movie.

Nice work. Excellent emotion in the body-language of all the asian-guy poses.

Btw some of those photos of Winston "and friends" are more convincing than some others I've seen. More like dates, less like out-with-friends.

If going to adapt it for YouTube publicity I would change the music to something more upbeat once the blondes show up...

I made this video a few years ago and it shows in a funny but true way, how Winston became, 'happier abroad.' :D

Here is another video I made a few years ago showing how happy Winston was in the Philippines. Maybe Winston should visit the Philippines more often. :D

Nice videos. Winston has certainly not been content to lead a life of quiet desperation.

Very inspiring videos! :mrgreen:

Winston was truly a pioneer when he started his international adventures! Back in those days (late 90s?) it was extremely rare for someone to do what Winston did. He had the courage, determination, conviction, and iron will to fly to those countries (which could get pretty lawless and scary) and pursue his amorous dreams, and then chronicled his adventures, warts and all, on the internet for the world to see. Not easy by any means! :shock:

Nowadays, living abroad and international travel are much more common with digital nomads, geoarbitrage, etc., and they're not quite as scary or unknown anymore, but the now-legendary Winston Wu helped pave the way for the greenhorns, and he's still going strong in 2016, traveling the earth and posting new exploits! :D
