    One day when you guys get older, you'll look back on this video, and it will feel as if no time has passed. That's the vibe I am getting. And that's the kind of relationship I want one day.
    Thank you for sharing these precious moments.

    i had never noticed how much i had overlooked the beauty of moss my whole life until i started gardening and especially when i tried making a terrarium. My mum told me the same since i had forced her into helping me look for moss from rocks. Now wherever we go we point out moss to each other

    I no longer fly because I love train rides. There's something peaceful and recluse about train riding, which is why I go by train every quarter to visit family. It's almost 30 hours one way for me. The train is nowhere as clean and updated like yours, though..wow!

    You two could do a multi part series on this and I would've watched the entire thing.
    As someone who lives in Vancouver, it always makes me happy to see someone enjoying the NW. It rains a lot, we definitely have our problems, but having access to Dense forests, Mountains and Beaches all just about 2 hours away from each other as well as a diverse culinary scene is cool and unique.
    Thank you for visiting!
