      Also great risks lead to great rewards. I myself quit my job to focus on my passion and make something out of it. Went from bartender to a business owner and now have a body building competition I'm doing in a whole different country! Which will be the first time I travel! If not for the risks, I wouldn't be where I am now and this is just the beggining! Important part is to KEEP PUSHING THROUGH!!

    I had researched this before. Among many many backpacking trips I planned in my head, the Trans-America trip I thought of involved this kind of stuff, though the other way around. The continental route between North and South America abrubtly cuts between Panama & Colombia by the Darien Gap, so I came across these boat tours. Looks much better than I anticipated. I'm now thinking of how to do this right now.
    I think your roommate is talking about the year 1977, when he's saying 77. So, he's like 46-47, as of now, 2024. Same age as me, but I am much shorter and fatter. It's impossible for me to be that popular, lol.

    As an OG subscriber I would be happy to get a shirt but it would be even better with your logo on the back. As a fellow Canadian (Vancouver) my guesses on Mike are: lawyer or finance/broker, 45 yrs old & from either Vancouver or Toronto. I loved this video and discovering there are islands I didn’t know about in Panama (based on my years working in offshore tax from the legal end wouldn’t be surprised if Mike had some connection to that business). Only thing missing from the video that I would love to hear is the story of how you ended up on that amazing trip.

I love this channel and your genuine personality as you experience these new things. Being someone from the gulf coast and seeing this European man commit to something and challenge himself and see parts of the world you thought impossible is inspiring. ❤
    Second it’s great and hilarious watching you be straight amazed by the same oceans I grew up on. 🤣 being amazed by the beauty of the ocean and the sand 💀 and how you say volleyball with your accent lmfao. thank you for appreciating the natural beauty and showing these beautiful parts of the world others wouldn’t know. ❤ and thanks for being an inspiration to all those looking to travel and explore outside of their comfort zones.
