You ain't never seen glaciers like these! At long last, we've escaped temporary confinement in Smithers and are once again pressing northward. We've linked up with our friends Christian, Andrea & Nacho to do some exploring. Our destination, BC's majestic Salmon Glacier, buried within the majestic coastal mountains. Here, we'll spend a few nights and days basking in the glory of ancient ice, abandoned gold mines ... and doing a little boot and bum skiing! Enjoy the views. Enjoy the laughs.
Say hello to our friends and enjoy their beautiful side of the story!

When a person is breathing their last (and it comes for us all), they don't say stuff like "I should have worked on Sundays." or "I took too many vacations." They say "I should have travelled at every opportunity. I should have taken more chances. I should have had pie for lunch." You two are doing it right. Me and them 12.6k+ subs are waiting for the next update.

These videos are awesome, but I’m wondering if your view metrics might improve if they were a little less long? Just a thought. How does a vlogger choose the ideal video length? Wishing the best ❤

@SlowRoamers Месяц назад

Perhaps, but I think it's more to do with other factors. Every creator needs to figure out how much of what they create is for them and how much is for the audience. I find 15-20 minutes gives me enough time to tell the story I want to tell and I can get enough footage to fill that 20 minutes in the 5 days of shooting that I usually have for each video. If I create an engaging enough video, the time that it takes to tell the story shouldn't be as much of an issue any longer.

I certainly do believe in climate change and see the effects of it, but I also try not to delve in political or polarizing topics in our videos. And CC is certainly both of those.
