Welcome to the ASEAN Hive Community's "ASEAN Hiver Of The Week" post, where I (@justinparke) highlight one of our community members.

👨‍🏫 ESL Teacher, Farang, ASEAN Hiver 👨‍💻

20% Post Beneficiary

     This is the second time I feature one of our top delegators, the one and only @jack.russelle. He's been a supporter of this community since the early days of ASEAN Hive, and his posts are always good reads. Like many fellow ASEAN Hivers, he's busy and doesn't post daily, so I try and make sure to never miss his posts.

     It's a selfless act to delegate so much and post so little because the community HP is used to upvote ASEAN Hive posts, so I thank him for being so generous and I'm always sure to smash the upvote button on his content. He is an ESL teacher living and working in Thailand, a job that I myself have done on and off for 12 years here in Cambodia, so I can relate to a lot his content.

     He often posts about life in Thailand through the eyes of a foreign resident, and one of my favorite things in life is to know the stories of people who choose to live outside of their native country/culture/religion/language. At the moment he has two active posts, one about the dual pricing system there, something that exists here in Cambodia and frustrates me too.

     The other active post is about the dangerous highways of Thailand, something that is a major problem here in Cambodia too. There is a higher percentage of untrained, unexperienced, and unlicensed drivers here in Cambodia, and I suspect higher rates of driving while intoxicated too, mostly because Cambodia has no police presence on the roads outside of the capital, it is the wild west. Thailand has a much larger and wealthier population though, and combined with high quality highways, the roads there are full of huge cars going extremely fast, something not possible here with all the animal obstacles and potholes.

     I highly recommend you go visit one of his active posts and smash the upvote button if you like what you read. I am not sure that this ASEAN Hiver has ever shared his face with us, so that's why I used a Jack Russell Terrier for the thumbnail image, just thought I would mention that. We as a community give thanks to this gentleman for his selfless support of our little community, and his interesting and intriguing reads.

Yes, that's right, you @justinparke that @jack.russelle is one of the great hivers,although rarely posts but after I read in his post, it turns out that his post is very interested in reading and very high quality.
Well worth an example.

He always provides an insightful look into life in Thailand as a foreigner.

Yeah you're right justin, our friend @jack.russelle does not post every day or rarely post content in the Hive ASEAN community, as you said he is a busy person, so just like me too 😄

As a foreigner who does not work in his own country, he must face many challenges at the beginning of work, new people, new environment, language, culture and religion which are completely different from ours. But it doesn't feel like it's been 12 years since he has faced all of this and he has summarized everything in the contents or posts on his blog.

A generous delegator, and has joined since the early days of the Hive ASEAN community, I personally really appreciate your generosity, my friend. Thank you very much for all your kindness 🙏🤝

Btw, sorry if I'm being rude my brother @justinparke, but I agree with your words => I am not sure that this ASEAN Hiver has ever shared his face with us 😅

True, he has been with us since the early days of ASEAN Hive, and I so thankful for his generous support of our little community. I enjoy reading his posts because I very much love seeing life through the eyes of folks living outside their own culture.

I respect his wishes to not show his face, and I realize many western Hivers don't do this because now you must pay taxes on crypto earnings in many parts of the world. Even me, I have no way to withdraw crypto because the American sites won't support me as I don't have a USA address or income, and foreign crypto exchanges won't register American citizens, but thankfully we have my wife's Binance account.
