Thank you all for your continued support! It means a lot to Natalia, Kymberly, and me. I'm out in LA now about to get a story from a man who did 24 years in prison. I feel we can learn from everyone and you guys just charged me up for this shoot :) I wish you all a healthy and fulfilling 2023. See you in February! And if you want to get more info about what's going on, join our mailing list here: www.bit.ly/3HC36EH
BEST YOU-TUBE CHANNEL TO EXIST EVER!! YOUR A LIVING LEGEND PETER!! WE ALL LOVE YOU SIR! THE NATIVE TRIBES REALLY LOVE YOU AND EMBRACE YOU! FOREVER BE BLESSED AND YOUR FAMILY!🙂🙏
I love how you chase what catches your interest. Then you learn all you can. You caught my attention visiting the Amish and hoods in different areas. You keep my attention by being yourself. Never change.
Your videos have been on fire recently! keep up the cool ventures 🌍 I can't wait to see the Hawaii series!!! Please go on some hikes there in the mountains, but be safe bring others if you hike anywhere in Hawaii or Mexico.
That's amazing - I love seeing the world through other people's travels / blogs/ vlogs/ & stories, too! Via photography & videography, too!!!!!!! I love to travel & see the world through others eyes!!!!
My 69 year old dad had a hip fratcture recently. We couldn't be with him as much as we would have liked. What got him through in the hospital was this channel. He was so hooked up that even the nurses and the catering lady knew he is watching you. Thanks Peter.
As a Middle School Humanities teacher, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate what you’re doing. My students know your name because I bring you up all the time and show excerpts of your videos. In an era where people are being silenced and stories are not being told, what you are doing is unbelievably important. Dr King spoke about mutuality. There’s poetry in every culture. No matter what you may think about the intricacies of their beliefs. Thank you from New York City.
With all of the information that their removing from learning in schools your channel is extremely important for ACCURATE INFORMATION I tell everybody about your channel because it is true and concise when you talk to the people you don't put words in their mouths and you don't go in predisposed with ideas. It could be said years ago you learned so much from families but even nowadays families are so fractured that you don't have those kind of discussions and you don't have closeness with your family members everyone so spread out 🫵💞
Thank you for all the effort and sacrifice in making the videos we so enjoy and learn from. Especially enjoy the ones giving us a better understanding of the First Nation American Indian peoples, and the ones you have done on our Boarders. Have a great 2024!
Yes, please don’t change. I LOVE that you don’t have many people involved “production”. I don’t want it “produced”. Just life finding and stories. Enjoy it for us. We enjoy seeing you just being you. Thanks
Exactly. With Peter's videos, I feel like I'm right there with him and the people he interviews, not behind a window of editing and packaging. It's a genuine experience.
Agree. we all know he is not doing journalist stuffs and his encounters with people all over the world and naturally absorb the subjects are the point many people like his channels.
Peter isn't a journalist but a Sherpa.. he helps us get to incredible places and a view of humanity that few will ever see. Love this guy and will support and follow his adventures as long as he is willing to share them.
You're not a journalist, you're a guide of sorts. Being invited into places and into people's lives where a lot of people would fail to even get a foot in the door. I love the content- especially the Native series!
The native series really brings joy. A lot of my family is from Albuquerque and Santa Fe area. Growing up visiting, I always had such respect for the tribe cultures. Such beautiful people and stories of survival are so interesting.
I adore that you let people speak for themselves. You don't ask leading questions. You just let them tell their own stories and I respect that so very much. I'm still trying to get you a To'hono Od'ham contact!!!
Peter, thank you and your small core team for videos that circumvent the commercial style of so many travel/culture "reporters." What has always struck me about your videos is the level of respect you show your subjects, and I'm sure that's part of the reason for your success. Good luck in '23 and I look forward to seeing your return in February!
I just found you this past year and I was blown away. I have learned SO much about the world and it's people. Please don't ever stop. I've seen some amazing people and places through your work. Your content has enriched my life.
I recently discovered your channel and have been binge-watching for hours. I have absolutely no complaints about any of the camerawork, most of what I've seen is very well done. Keep up the great work, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
Your subscribers have grown so much and that tells you that you are doing something valuable to all your viewers... Every time I watched your vlog, it always brings me back the segment of your wife's family in Ukraine and your friend that you stayed for a week at their house and that girl who taught you how to speak their language...How are they doing? Thoughts and prayers go out to them, hope they are all safe...
Really enjoyed the Native series. I inquired about this as a possibility, and you did it man! And you did it very well with care and respect for the tribes. I am sure it was a lot of work behind the scenes. Thank you Peter, your wife, and team!
I don’t know how I started watching your channel, but I’m so glad I found you! You take us into other people’s worlds in ways that I’ve never nor understood before. Your videos give such a richness to the human condition. I see what it looks like to be a Hasidic Jew living in NYC, or a nomad living in the Arizona desert or an Indian living on a Lakota reservation, or what is truly going on at the borders of our country. I so love the fact that you let the people speak for themselves instead of controlling the conversations. Your videos are so refreshingly honest. Through your RUclips channel I have the ability to see what real life America looks like. Please keep doing what you’re doing? There’s a lot of us who want to see truth revealed. Thank you so much for your channel!
Enjoy your perspectives and channel. Small world; we met briefly about 5 years ago in the High Tatras of Slovakia. Fellow American, we shared breakfast before I left for a day of hiking. Hope you have the chance to one day revisit a peaceful Kiev. I’ll look forward to that story…..
I can’t tell you enough how proud I am of you and your channel. I have learned so much since probably the Amish series. This is the content that others need to see to break the barriers of stereotypes. Something I would like to see sometime, if you can do it safely, is learn and understand why there are so many transients from Mexico into the United States and why there is rare effort made to become legal citizens by the majority. This would be an interesting culture to try to understand and what they REALLY need for assistance as opposed to what we think they are just taking from us gratis. I think a lot of Americans would like to understand what is going on from the opposite side of border security. Also, why is there so much standoffishness on both sides in our society.
Great job, whatever you call it. Your Native American series is fantastic. Understanding them should be a subject in every elementary school and your series would be a great tool for teachers to utilize!
It’s August already but still wanted to thank you for all the videos. I’ve shared these to friends and family who are following you now. So hard to find content like this. Thanks
I am a fan, so happy to have found you. My favorite are your Amish and Orthodox Jewish clips. I was fascinated and intrigued and could not stop watching, wishing there was more. I think that’s the reaction you as a film maker desire. Thank you Peter❤
Peter, your are a joy to watch. I’ve been following you since you unloaded your bike off the train in Ukraine, to live with the family to learn Ukrainian/Russian. Your style is very educational and your kindness outstanding. Those trips throughout the Middle East were a life time memory to me, as I doubt other travelers will ever get as close to the people as you. Thank you so much, I’ll follow you anywhere on UTube.
Without doubt Peter, I have found your American series truly eye opening and your approach to showing the story by far the best content on youtube by far, cheers for the wonderful videos and look forward to another year of wonders.
You are phenomenal, absolutely love your content, i always get good vibes from your channel, both your videos and the comment sections are always filled with people with so much love for people, i truly love seeing that, what you do really means a lot to the world, thank you Peter 💗💗💗💗
This is a very spiritual kind of work. There has been no time like now, where we can get to know people from around the world. By integrating our insight and having friendships across boundaries, that can put us all in a higher most improved reality. Thanks for your work!
Many topics you touched on here are things we’ve discussed watching your content. One of the big reasons you’re so trusted and allowed entry into cultures/areas is because you’re the only one showing up. No big crew and that is much less intimidating. Also, you clearly form trusting relationships and bonds with many groups who aren’t normally prone to trusting strangers. Your Hasidic series was mindblowing. Such a mysterious subculture and you seemed to form longtime bonds with some of the people there. Just watched the LA Chicano episode over the weekend and sent the link to my parents who grew up in LA. Was very refreshing to see how far they’ve come vs the horribly violent days of the 80s gang wars. Bottom line, your content is refreshing, informative, respectful, and engaging. I could lose myself in your channel for hours. Your ability to connect with people whom you don’t have much in common with is truly a gift. They feel heard and respected. Not many these days know how to communicate in this way….you are an exception. Keep up the excellent work and we can’t wait to see what you put out in 2023 ❤
Your Native American series Has blown me away as ive always been fascinated by their culture and history! thank you for the amazing content, cant wait for the next in the Native series you mention doing in the future!
I would love to see you do a series on Route 66. I know it's been covered by several vloggers on RUclips already, but none of them really talk to the people on the route, the business owners whose towns got completely bypassed by the interstates. There are a lot of characters along the route who have a lot of good stories. And besides that, it's a great drive!
Peter, this channel is your gift to the world, please never delete any of the videos, it is telling a story for generations to come. You are probably not aware of how important this content is. ❤
I just love your channel! You're kind, openminded and curious - no wonder people want to open themselves to you. I really loved the native series as I'm a native ally. I look forward to your 2023 videos. Thank you, Peter for sharing!
August 2023 and I can just honestly say that your videos are way better and more honest then any documentary’s i ever saw. Thank you so much for your content. Love it ❤
I’m Navajo and I really enjoyed the Native American series. I hope you continue with it with other tribes. Happy New Year and I look forward to more videos 🫶🏽🪶
I love your channel! I have learned so much about different cultures. I appreciate your talents, honesty, integrity. Keep up the good/hard work! Looking forward to learning more! Wishing you safe travels and a year full of blessings!
Great news! And I’m looking forward to your channel in 2023. Meanwhile, since I just discovered you in 2022, I have much catching up to do. I love what you are doing here. I think it’s important to understand other cultures, especially the different cultures within the United States; THANK YOU!
Thanks to you, Natalia, and Kimberly for one of the best channels on RUclips, and some of the best stuff on all the Interwebs! Continued success, safe travels, and looking forward to new stuff in February!
Thank you for what you are doing Peter! I love watching your videos and hearing the stories and vast different perspectives all people have. You are a huge inspiration.
Just discovered your channel a couple days ago and have been binge watching since. These are fascinating stories made possible by your interaction with people. I find it interesting , and encouraging, the number of views these are getting. I think it shows just how interested people are in learning about people in diverse cultures. Keep up the great work. ❤️❤️
A fascinating year of learning about who & what AMERICA is all about. Well done to you, your wife & Kimberly as you share this with the world. Looking forward to what we will all find in 2023.
Newbie’s, your content was in my feed so, took a look and wow! I’m addictive 😆 The content of your video’s are quite interesting to say the least love it absolutely. Thank you for sharing your stories in these “not all the time” welcoming environments. ✊🏻 🙏🏻💙
Happy New Year Enjoy learning with you and watching your experiences and content 👍 Being Native American and watching your series on reservation life is great to see and a few I had never heard of and like learning about the culture and traditions of other tribes👍♥️♥️
Peter, thank you for diving deeper into the 'behind the scene' stories. I am fascinated by the folks I meet because they all have interesting stories. You are doing what I have dreamed about doing but you have taken the plunge and are now making quality and interesting videos. Keep on keeping on and blessings to you and your crew.
Can’t wait for your Hawaii series. I’ve been to the islands many times, but only as a tourist like so many others. I know there is another world that we visitors don’t see, particularly some of the isolated islands that many people are not permitted to go. You always do an amazing job connecting with people and their stories. Looking forward to seeing more from you.
The only isolated island closed to visitors is Niihau and only about 50 people (a family) lives there. Also, a lot of Hawaiian, other Polynesian, and Micronesian women are into haole guys, so Pete might make the local dudes jealous lol
Coming to your channel a bit late, so forgive if you've done these and I'm just not immediately seeing them in your series list: 1) entire southern US border, east to west. 2) entire northern US border, east to west. Love that you don't insert YOU too much into the videos and interviews. You provide space for people to talk and you ask great basic questions. Thank you.
So glad you're holding true to your form, Peter - just you, a very small crew, just a GoPro... don't change that. It's what works and makes you unique. Also, the treasure trove of the USA that you're focusing on is such a gift to the world. Keep on keeping on. Shout out to Natalia and Kimberly too :) P.s. I think it was the Chicano series that first hooked me in and here we are a full year later..
I have learned infinitely about other cultures and countries from your channel, than I ever have from anything else. Because of you I am considering traveling to the Middle East.
Thank you for the coming year when you visit Arizona. 73 year old AZ native and there are many many stories down here particularly in Southern Arizona and our border issues.
Absolutely love your mission. Diving deeper into my own backyard, America and true gritty Americana. Thank you for taking us along. May God bless your journey richly in 2023.
An interesting topic might be traditional Catholics and their perspective. Thank you for all you and your wife and Kimberley do. I love the respect you show any group you explore. Wonderful content!
Thanks, Peter, for doing all that you do, that no one else seems to do. Thank you for shining some light on communities that are constantly ignored. I live in a remote part of Maine, way up north, and the longer I've been there, the more I wish a prolific individual would venture to Washington and Aroostook Counties and highlight the unique culture found here, between the cold-weather Amish, and the Acadian communities, the struggling Mainers that are being forgotten to time, no one thinks about them. No one seems to care about them. I hope one day, someone with the personal and professional skill like you can bring their lifestyles, struggles, and cultures to the masses. God bless, Peter, and thank you.
@@PeterSantenello You've made my day simply by response alone. If feel the need to connect, or need a local fixer for parts of it, I'd be happy to help any way I can. You're a good man, doing what you do. Thank you.
So glad I found this channel. I’ve been to a few other countries. If you ever want to go to Kazakhstan, I have some great connections. Loved the stuff you did in AZ, border stories, reservations. Huge respect given and gained.
Thank you for the people stories you bring us weekly, this is why we are here, for an open communication between us all, with respect, empathy and love! Happy, busy 2023!!!
I want to put my hands up and thank you in S'Klallam (Pacific Northwest) Tribe and Tlingit (Alaska) Tribe for covering Reservations/Indian Country tough topics. There was times I could feel tears in my eyes of either tough topics, history or joy. I learned from your interviews that it's not just a local Tribal Council/IHS (Indian Health Services) that are corrupt, it's widespread in Indian Country. Impeccable work. Thank you Peter. ♥️💯🔥👍
I absolutely love your channel. It has opened my eyes and mind so much to other people’s lives and perspectives. Thank you for giving these people a platform to express themselves with no alternative motives.
Just found this channel before Christmas and I've learnt so much! I love hearing the stories of human beings from all walks of life. People interest me 😂 Thank you from Wales ✌️
Hello Peter, I recently found your channel and watched ALL of the Native American series. I'm recovering from a major surgery, so I have lots of time on my hands and looked forward to each episode. I learned so much, thank you for all of the hard work! I'm looking forward to more of your journey. All my best from California.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the amazing series. I'm so in love with all the different cultures in the States, and your videos get to the very bottom of each one, like nothing else. It's like being there with you talking to all those people, you know? It's an amazing experience. I've learnt so much from what you have created here :) And a special thanks for the native series. I have a lil tiny bit of native blood in me and I always wanted to learn more about the culture, but it just never came along for me to learn. And when I saw you post it on your channel... man... That was just pure happiness and jubilation. Thank you so much! Another special thanks for the cowboy series. I mean. To say that I'm obsessed with that culture is to say nothing, but who ain't? Am I right? Anyways, once again, HUGE thanks for all of your hard work... Oh man, almost forgot, those Florida series are incredible.... anyways, I can keep going forever here ahah. God bless you, long live Peter Santenello and I wish a great 2023! Cheers and much love
Hello! Started watching ur channel from Navajo man and Lakota Bae. Been watching ever since. Love all the native ones. I'm Navajo and really enjoy ur channel. Keep it up
I am a half Iranian from Norway that didnt know alot about the country and allways been told scary things and never travelled and Im 30 years young. So I appreciate showing me some of my fatherland and making me gonna go there. I also appriciate the way you make the videos and have been enjoying not only the ones from Iran. Lots of respect love and blessings
You do amazing work Peter. Network level in my opinion. I someone sees your talents and offers you something if that is your wish. Very educational, informative, respectful, and rare coverage. I’m referring to the Native Americans series. You didn’t elevate them to mystical heroes or to victims which is not a well-balanced person like but instead just as other Americans or however they identify. Seeing them as human lives is the beginning of empathy and understanding. Your series did that better than others.
Well said! Thank you Peter! If there was one word to describe your material is HONESTY. Even though you/us might not agree with the opinions of your subjects, you see their point of view and share it with the world. Thanks again!
I’m so thrilled to have discovered your channel. You’ve really shown how amazing people and cultures are and many are so often misunderstood. Your humility gains trust in a way that few others can accomplish. Thanks for all you do 🙏🌞
Thank you do much for doing this. Understanding people who are different from you and live different lives is the way we make the world better a little bit at a time.
Thank you all for your continued support! It means a lot to Natalia, Kymberly, and me. I'm out in LA now about to get a story from a man who did 24 years in prison. I feel we can learn from everyone and you guys just charged me up for this shoot :) I wish you all a healthy and fulfilling 2023. See you in February!

I’m Navajo and I really enjoyed the Native American series. I hope you continue with it with other tribes. Happy New Year and I look forward to more videos 🫶🏽🪶
I love your channel! I have learned so much about different cultures. I appreciate your talents, honesty, integrity. Keep up the good/hard work! Looking forward to learning more! Wishing you safe travels and a year full of blessings!
Peter, love you content. You have the best channel on RUclips. God Bless you throughout your journey.
Keep up the great work! Your decision and reasoning on using the GoPro is right on. Really enjoying your content and style.
Cultural Videographer it's that simple 🥂 Happy New Year Mrs & Mrs Santenello
Great news! And I’m looking forward to your channel in 2023. Meanwhile, since I just discovered you in 2022, I have much catching up to do. I love what you are doing here. I think it’s important to understand other cultures, especially the different cultures within the United States; THANK YOU!
You’re such an inspiration of mine!
Thanks to you, Natalia, and Kimberly for one of the best channels on RUclips, and some of the best stuff on all the Interwebs! Continued success, safe travels, and looking forward to new stuff in February!
Thank you for what you are doing Peter! I love watching your videos and hearing the stories and vast different perspectives all people have. You are a huge inspiration.
Just discovered your channel a couple days ago and have been binge watching since. These are fascinating stories made possible by your interaction with people. I find it interesting , and encouraging, the number of views these are getting. I think it shows just how interested people are in learning about people in diverse cultures. Keep up the great work. ❤️❤️
No explanation needed, just watching your programs give us what not only you are about, but the extraordinary people you include in them. Thanks!
A fascinating year of learning about who & what AMERICA is all about. Well done to you, your wife & Kimberly as you share this with the world. Looking forward to what we will all find in 2023.
I love your channel and the way you present. The “this is where I am this week and these are the subjects” approach is unmatched. You’re unique.
Newbie’s, your content was in my feed so, took a look and wow! I’m addictive 😆 The content of your video’s are quite interesting to say the least love it absolutely. Thank you for sharing your stories in these “not all the time” welcoming environments. ✊🏻 🙏🏻💙
Happy New Year
Enjoy learning with you and watching your experiences and content 👍
Being Native American and watching your series on reservation life is great to see and a few I had never heard of and like learning about the culture and traditions of other tribes👍♥️♥️
I don’t care what anyone says, I soooo love your content … very interesting and educational. Keep going, Peter!!! ❤❤❤
Peter, thank you for diving deeper into the 'behind the scene' stories. I am fascinated by the folks I meet because they all have interesting stories. You are doing what I have dreamed about doing but you have taken the plunge and are now making quality and interesting videos. Keep on keeping on and blessings to you and your crew.
You are a fantastic human Peter. 👍
Can’t wait for your Hawaii series. I’ve been to the islands many times, but only as a tourist like so many others. I know there is another world that we visitors don’t see, particularly some of the isolated islands that many people are not permitted to go. You always do an amazing job connecting with people and their stories. Looking forward to seeing more from you.
The only isolated island closed to visitors is Niihau and only about 50 people (a family) lives there. Also, a lot of Hawaiian, other Polynesian, and Micronesian women are into haole guys, so Pete might make the local dudes jealous lol
Coming to your channel a bit late, so forgive if you've done these and I'm just not immediately seeing them in your series list: 1) entire southern US border, east to west. 2) entire northern US border, east to west. Love that you don't insert YOU too much into the videos and interviews. You provide space for people to talk and you ask great basic questions. Thank you.
Sounds like a great year coming up with lots of good stories! Thank you for doing what you do!
I love, love all your videos! Keep them coming & be safe❤😊
It takes mammoth respect for each other to be married and work together closely. Please continue to be each others biggest cheerleader ❤
Huge fan from Australia!
So glad you're holding true to your form, Peter - just you, a very small crew, just a GoPro... don't change that. It's what works and makes you unique. Also, the treasure trove of the USA that you're focusing on is such a gift to the world. Keep on keeping on. Shout out to Natalia and Kimberly too :)
P.s. I think it was the Chicano series that first hooked me in and here we are a full year later..
I'm really excited about the upcoming Tijuana content. Thanks for the great job in 2022.
I have learned infinitely about other cultures and countries from your channel, than I ever have from anything else. Because of you I am considering traveling to the Middle East.
Thank you for the coming year when you visit Arizona. 73 year old AZ native and there are many many stories down here particularly in Southern Arizona and our border issues.
Your channel is definitely one of my favorites. Definitely looking forward to new adventures.
Thank you very much for this channel.
One of the most meaningful, rich content and high quality channels on RUclips.
Bless you Peter ❤️
Absolutely love your mission. Diving deeper into my own backyard, America and true gritty Americana.
Thank you for taking us along. May God bless your journey richly in 2023.
Thanks for what you do, Peter! Can't wait to see what February brings!
An interesting topic might be traditional Catholics and their perspective.
Thank you for all you and your wife and Kimberley do. I love the respect you show any group you explore. Wonderful content!
Great videos Peter,keep up the good work!
You do a great job and service for humanity. What an education...all from the folks you meet along your journey. I look forward to 2023 and beyond.
Thanks, Peter, for doing all that you do, that no one else seems to do. Thank you for shining some light on communities that are constantly ignored.
I live in a remote part of Maine, way up north, and the longer I've been there, the more I wish a prolific individual would venture to Washington and Aroostook Counties and highlight the unique culture found here, between the cold-weather Amish, and the Acadian communities, the struggling Mainers that are being forgotten to time, no one thinks about them. No one seems to care about them. I hope one day, someone with the personal and professional skill like you can bring their lifestyles, struggles, and cultures to the masses. God bless, Peter, and thank you.
Thanks Retro Ranger! Great idea, I should go to the far north of Maine. Give me some time on that, but I hope to make it happen.
@@PeterSantenello You've made my day simply by response alone. If feel the need to connect, or need a local fixer for parts of it, I'd be happy to help any way I can. You're a good man, doing what you do. Thank you.
So glad I found this channel. I’ve been to a few other countries. If you ever want to go to Kazakhstan, I have some great connections. Loved the stuff you did in AZ, border stories, reservations. Huge respect given and gained.
I really like your Native American series!! Looking forward to more :)
Thank you my dear.
Thank you for the people stories you bring us weekly, this is why we are here, for an open communication between us all, with respect, empathy and love! Happy, busy 2023!!!
I want to put my hands up and thank you in S'Klallam (Pacific Northwest) Tribe and Tlingit (Alaska) Tribe for covering Reservations/Indian Country tough topics. There was times I could feel tears in my eyes of either tough topics, history or joy. I learned from your interviews that it's not just a local Tribal Council/IHS (Indian Health Services) that are corrupt, it's widespread in Indian Country. Impeccable work. Thank you Peter. ♥️💯🔥👍
I absolutely love your channel. It has opened my eyes and mind so much to other people’s lives and perspectives. Thank you for giving these people a platform to express themselves with no alternative motives.
Just found this channel before Christmas and I've learnt so much! I love hearing the stories of human beings from all walks of life. People interest me 😂 Thank you from Wales ✌️
Hello Peter, I recently found your channel and watched ALL of the Native American series. I'm recovering from a major surgery, so I have lots of time on my hands and looked forward to each episode. I learned so much, thank you for all of the hard work! I'm looking forward to more of your journey. All my best from California.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the amazing series.
I'm so in love with all the different cultures in the States, and your videos get to the very bottom of each one, like nothing else.
It's like being there with you talking to all those people, you know? It's an amazing experience. I've learnt so much from what you have created here :)
And a special thanks for the native series. I have a lil tiny bit of native blood in me and I always wanted to learn more about the culture, but it just never came along for me to learn. And when I saw you post it on your channel... man... That was just pure happiness and jubilation. Thank you so much!
Another special thanks for the cowboy series. I mean. To say that I'm obsessed with that culture is to say nothing, but who ain't? Am I right?
Anyways, once again, HUGE thanks for all of your hard work...
Oh man, almost forgot, those Florida series are incredible.... anyways, I can keep going forever here ahah.
God bless you, long live Peter Santenello and I wish a great 2023!
Cheers and much love
Thanks so much Crimson!
Peter, Thanks for all you, Natalia and Kymberly do on the channel.
Your videos and content are truely fantastic. I love learning about other people and how their lives are. Happy New Year!
Hello! Started watching ur channel from Navajo man and Lakota Bae. Been watching ever since. Love all the native ones. I'm Navajo and really enjoy ur channel. Keep it up
Really enjoyed the native series. Thanks. Going through radition and loved the insight you brought out with them.
🧡🙏
@@annaphillion9269 Thanks!
Nice, I would say your style is documentary rather than journalism. You really capture the essence of a group of people.
Peter is actually super impressive with the Gro-Pro. Able to get great shots and angles just by direction and feel.
I am a half Iranian from Norway that didnt know alot about the country and allways been told scary things and never travelled and Im 30 years young. So I appreciate showing me some of my fatherland and making me gonna go there. I also appriciate the way you make the videos and have been enjoying not only the ones from Iran. Lots of respect love and blessings
You do amazing work Peter. Network level in my opinion. I someone sees your talents and offers you something if that is your wish. Very educational, informative, respectful, and rare coverage. I’m referring to the Native Americans series. You didn’t elevate them to mystical heroes or to victims which is not a well-balanced person like but instead just as other Americans or however they identify. Seeing them as human lives is the beginning of empathy and understanding. Your series did that better than others.
Thank you Peter for all you do. It is amazing to see different cultures.
Happy new year sir Peter 🎉
Looking forward to your 2023 videos
I like the story that you did on the Chicanos I have some friends that are Chicanos and I love their cars
Well said! Thank you Peter! If there was one word to describe your material is HONESTY. Even though you/us might not agree with the opinions of your subjects, you see their point of view and share it with the world.
Thanks again!
I’m so thrilled to have discovered your channel. You’ve really shown how amazing people and cultures are and many are so often misunderstood. Your humility gains trust in a way that few others can accomplish. Thanks for all you do 🙏🌞
Thank you do much for doing this. Understanding people who are different from you and live different lives is the way we make the world better a little bit at a time.
