Are these videos from now? I love it because they feel so nostalgic and early 2000s documentaries. Steve has the coolest job in thr world 😊

[@richoneplanet7561]

I have enjoyed his videos for years starting on PBS I think - still love them !

[@zaram131]

I agree!

[@KitsuneHB]

True! They remind me of 90s documentaries. I love this style - more than the documentary style today. His videos got such a calm mood. I'm HSP and I love his videos.

[@cameron7603]

Not unless Steve is getting younger each year :) No these are older videos, but they look to have improvements made to the image quality.

[@marshmangunnar9150]

Rick is a treasure. I'm 46 now and haved watched his shows since 100 years ago it feels, some of my best memories of my late father were during Mr Steves shows. Bless you

[@motababajorwalgordatodabhi8831]

Good video ❤❤❤ I'm form India

[@vaibhavsingh1282]

one day I will have enough money to go to these places, also on an unrelated note if only I had a way of finding a job that gets me to travel just like rick steves my idol, maybe just working as an executive producer for a travel show or something

[@lurkingShadows]

Can't assist with the hiring process but I recommend Enterprise Mobil. I work remotely so I can be anywhere.

[@LeutnantJoker]

you can always just move to Europe

[@vaibhavsingh1282]

@@LeutnantJoker not everybody has that kind of money

[@danasandoval624]

@@vaibhavsingh1282not only the money but each country has rules on long term stay & require a visa, even then often there are restrictions on work & such. So you are right it’s not just a pack your bag & move thing.

[@5daysofcoffee]

I’m sure it was an accident or a cultural difference but the tour guide’s inflection at 1:55 sounds like he’s mocking Rick Steves in a French accent, “No, it’s not a HUNT-TING scene.”

[@matthieucalu]

That’s how French people speak English. He’s not mocking anyone, just answering the question.

[@samboggs3499]

What is mind boggling about the discovery of the French cave paintings in September 1940 is France was invaded and overrun by NAZI'S by may-June in 1940...

At least over there they do not remove items as the Smithsonian Museum of the American Indian did.
