    Wow! I expected something completely different. But holy moly that's one of the best and most effort put in a video I've ever seen on RUclips. I'm so impressed I can't even describe it in words right now!
    How long did it take you to edit this video ? And is it possible to connect with you through instagram or something similar ?
    Greeting from Fuerteventura !
    Please keep up that amazing content , I have a lot to learn from you .

      Hey thanks a million! Took probably a month overall, the longest part is all the drawing animations and stop-motion, but it's great fun at the same time. Yeah I'm on Instagram, don't use it a huge amount but should be able to find me :)

    It's because of this video that I made a travel journal for my study abroad semester in London. It became one of my most cherished possessions and something I show people to demonstrate how influential traveling can be on your life. And now I'm making another journal because I'm studying abroad again. Whoop whoop! Praise God.

When you arrive, particularly as a young man, just accept the time zone. If it's night, go to bed, if it's day, then get on with it. Great video.
