    You belong with the rare group of people who also show the down-sides of reality, not just the shiny surface.
    Thank you for trying to raise awareness, not only for the beautiful, but also the ugly sides of life.
    Tanti saluti, Marina 😊🌺🙏

      Ciao Marina, thank you very much for watching and commenting our videos. As you may know, we really care about being as real and realistic as possible. Sometimes our cameras are off, or we can't make videos for whatever reason, and we lose some little parts of what we are living, of what happens, and what we see/experience. But we try as much as we can to give you the real experience as you would have been there with us. ❤🙏👍😊

    It is a shame that such beautiful places are littered with plastic garbage. I was glad to see recently that the United Nations has put forth a legally binding framework for reducing plastic garbage. As a citizen of the United States I am saddened and ashamed that my country was one of the few that didn't sign on. Thank you for the beautiful footage of the pink flamingos!!! They truly ate a amazing bird! And thank you for bringing awareness to the problem of plastic. If we all started filling our own SS water bottles, and bringing our own canvas shopping bags, and bring our own coffee cups to our local coffee shops, it would make suck a big difference. How did we survive before plastic? Very well!

      @leaw  5 лет назад +4

      Yes, we all should start doing something as you say. Non single use plastic bottles are just an example, plastic straws are not needed etc etc Saving the planet sounds huge doesn’t it? And in essence, it is. But there are many simple ways we can do our bit to help. BECAUSE SIMPLE THINGS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Thanks for watching!

    Sara and Luca, I posted this one to my Facebook page. I cried for the beauty of flamingos but ached for the environmental tragedy behind the scenes. This is why your truck is the greatest. See beyond what tourists are shown. The hungry dogs hurt me. There are so many starving dogs everywhere in all the vanlife channels in Mexico. I hope you get more subscribers.

      @@leaw you have a great eye for cinematic shots and a good way with the story - especially considering English isn't your first language. My wife's first language isn't English, so I understand the difficulty of expressing nuances and abstractions. And yet your stories always have such a genuine, human touch. I think most people have never edited several hours of video into 10 or 15 minutes of content. It often takes hours to do so. My own channel doesn't have any content as of yet, but I have hundreds of hours of raw footage I haven't been able to sit down and edit into anything. Maybe when I get done with the attic remodel or the van build or the garage restoration... Or when I retire, LOL. Love your stuff, be well!

    Today I have been removing the broken plastic coating from a clothes drying rack, while binge watching your videos. It's taking ages, but I will paint it afterwards and use it again, instead of buying a new one. It's worth the time taken to recondition and reuse, to upcycle and recycle whatever we can, to help the planet 🌏 💚

Most of the tourists don't see what is happening because they go on the boat tour to see the flamingos, just few people drive across the reserve. Please let us know if someone will answer to your message. thank you

    Someone is probably getting paid to haul that garbage away. So they pick a reserve to burn it. Sad. I’m conflicted with the drone footage of the flamingos as they have to expend energy while in flight. I know you would be/are respectful of nature. It’s sad to see stray animals. Definitely an issue in most of the world.
