    As a Jamaican, the things shown about America in the media make America seem like a horrible place but it's the same thing the media does with every country. Peter shows that America have some wonderful people outside of the major cities. The people that live in the cities are far from nature and calmness.
  • @my2sats260
    The bakery owner needs his own show on the history channel. He’s amazing
  • @Rudirud
    As a German, I am completely blown away by the people in this video. They are so open minded and friendly despite struggling with the challenges of today's world even more than we do over here. Stay strong, stay friendly and remain loving human beings, folks! Love from Germany!
  • @dl1hwx
    I don't care if it's Cajuns, Appalachia or Amish --- Super, super series -- this is the story of America!!! Thanks Peter......
  • @nutsbutdum
    This channel has restored my faith in everyday hard working Americans. They are really not well portrayed in the mainstream media. To see that there are still these down to earth folks who would tell a stranger "hey hop in the car, I'll show you around my little town" is just heartwarming.
  • @BoolatGuzairov
    Writing this from Russia. Our media for decades has been trying to concrete the stereotypes about how bad the opposite people are. But in fact you see that regular people from outside the big cities are all the same: hard-workers, definitely seeing their own struggles, but keep being optimistic and so open to the strangers. And in the end of the day this is the people who carrying the whole country on their backs - and, as usually, don’t get enough recognition for that. Thanks for a trip, man. There’s been a lot of channels, but the atmosphere in your videos is so calm & pleasant! God bless 🙏🏼
  • @ninjamania
    That bus driver is a sweetheart. She’s got the right mind for driving the kids.
  • So happy to hear that the bakery is busy with orders. I ordered this past Monday. Received an email today that they are backed up on orders and it will be a couple weeks for delivery. That’s what happens when people come together to support others.
  • @KayFabe87
    This is what true journalism without an agenda looks like. Peter just has open, honest discussions with everyday people and documents it for his viewers. Great content.
  • 52 years married... and they're still in love. What a great way to end the video. Thanks for another look into a part of America I've never seen. Amazing people.
  • @AMDemon420
    I born and raised in New Iberia, Louisiana. I spent 33 years of my life in Cajun country before I moved across the US. Thank you for this video and showing how wonderful and unique Cajun country and Cajun culture is. I brought some tears to my eyes watching this, missing my home, and being proud of the friendliness and hospitality of Cajuns.
  • @kristenhutchins
    Peter, the thing some people may not know is Cajuns in South Louisiana are taught very young to love our neighbor. We grow up seeing our parents and grandparents help others - it doesn't matter if you're a stranger or not. We are here to help one another. Acts of kindness are very important to us. We love you and see you as family. We know we need each other. Each person we meet, we meet for a reason. Yes, there are exceptions, but for the most part, Cajuns have big hearts. We have and will rescue you (in a boat usually) if you're stuck/flooded, give you dry clothes, and feed you a good meal. Nothing expected in return. Do good when you can - that's Cajun. Have gratitude for the small things - that's Cajun. Throw a big temper tantrum and yell a lot when you've been wronged - that's Cajun. Work hard, eat a good supper, and pray before you go to sleep - that's Cajun. Keep going - that's Cajun. Thank you, Peter, for showing parts of Louisiana to the world. PEACE & LOVE to you and your wife!

    Peter Santenello, opening hearts and minds one Saturday at a time. KEEP IT UP PETER!!!! the country NEEDS your work!!!! <3 <3
  • @richystran1
    This is the kinda documentary I love.. no agenda just honest journalism allowing us to shape our own opinions. Refreshing.
  • The potato man. He’s a lovely old gentleman. What friendly people. It’s such a shame how folks are struggling now. The bread and ginger cake looked so good. Ricky is so nice and I hope his business goes on and on. I’ve never been to the USA but if I ever had the opportunity I’d prefer to visit places like this and not the big bustling cities. Real people. Thankyou for showing this 😊🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
  • When it’s all said and done 99.9% of us just want to be able to be safe, provide for our families and feel loved regardless of where you live. Exposure is key,thanks for having us along Peter!
  • @ScottyRules33
    How can you beat this kind of content? It's raw, authentic, boots on the ground, journalism.
  • @ALanLovesJesus
    I moved from NY to this area 28 years ago. I lived in 3 northern states and here. This is by far my favorite place! I love Cajun country. The food is amazing. The people are beyond friendly. It’s a whole new world down here. I will never leave.
