Nice edit :) from all your videos I can tell its the sort of place I would love to get lost in :p

Great job brother . Enjoying nature really is the best here. I've been to most of the places mentioned. Did you find the "gun barrel" on the Nanaimo river? It's scary but sooo much fun.

Keep it up, and if your ever on the island again let me know!

Cheers!

The edit work is very nice. The scene sequence really flows well, I felt anticipation for what was next!
At the Sooke Potholes I didn't remember you went so deep. Did you swim through & out???
Thanx for the Vancouver highlight reel...
When was your departure date North for this coastal extravaganza?
There are a few spots I'm wanting to visit from this trip. We're hoping end summer 2020. 🏕⛺🏞

Where are you eating at the end of the video? Maybe it's there and I am just not seeing it.
