@craigadams4143 3 года назад

Maybe it helps to be by yourself and have a video camera. Back before the pandemic and I could travel , I'd travel alone and I was always astounded at the people that would come up to me in a bar or restaurant or , really , any public space and start a conversation.

@nooranonel 3 года назад

I think it would be so dope if you did a 2020 year in review video where you include bloopers and footage that never made it into your posted videos (travel footage, vlog footage, picking up your camera, raves lol, birthday bts, red wine talks, you singing, reels, photos, etc.) Even if it’s like 2 hours long, I definitely would watch and I’m sure your other subscribers would agree. I know it’s probably a shit ton of work to edit but I also think there’s beauty in it kind of being thrown together kind of randomly. From reading A New Earth and just watching your videos in general, I think reflection is a beautiful thing and I would love to overall just experience 2020 through your eyes.
