Very interesting. Chapters would greatly benefit this though, please consider. Thank you for the podcast.

Thank you Andrew and Ryan and all the team at Backpacking Light. I've learnt so much from you that I have applied to daily life, not just backpacking. This means a simpler less cluttered life as well as cutting my carbon footprint fivefold. But that lifestyle is more, not less. It's amazing how we can achieve more with less, and become happier as a result. I'm looking forward to 2022 as you guys said and I'm looking forward to being 'the snail' moving at my own pace and with my home on my back. Maybe some folk would look at me and see a vagabond, but my diet is extremely healthy, I meet different people and cultures and see fresh horizons, and generally feel contented with so few possessions, but every item I do have has Value and Purpose. I'm doing the full-time dirt bag thing except I'm actually pretty elegant and smart and receive some kind comments from women. I can live like a tramp, yet mingle with the beautiful people in the city experiencing haute couture, as I think about every aspect of what I actually need and how to go about being presentable in any situation with the little I have. Without wishing to boast, I'm actually maybe more elegant than many other men in a city restaurant even though I'm wearing the same clothes I've spent that day climbing over a 3,000m pass. Thanks guys, and to all the others out there who continue to inspire me. Peace and love to all. ✌🙏❤

Great show! Re: leaving on charger overnight, my last couple of phones automatically turn off battery saver mode whenever charging, and there's no way to override that. If iPhones are the same, I suspect that would greatly exacerbate the draining Rex found. I'm not sure if that was mentioned later -- RU-vid won't load for me past about the 59 minute mark, but I'll try to finish up later.
