You have no idea how happy MAYA was seeing herself on the video!
she is saying Miao to everyone who watched the video twice!
hopefully you won't have much obstacles sharing your stories as you had with the last two videos.
i am sure we will hear more stories, the snake spared our lives back in the desert for a reason !

lol whats crazy is people probably clicked on this video thinking it was about the passport but got sucked/captivated into an adventure in morocco lol. nice.

[LukeKorns]

WOW. This last week trying to figure out why this video was originally deleted was stressful, but having you guys come back and show it some love once again means the world to me. Thank you guys for appreciating my work and what it stands for.

As a Moroccan i am proud and honored that you "ended up" in our neck of the woods so glad you had a good time and hope you come back

For future reference, when you go online to set an appointment they are always full for months. The trick is, they aren’t actually full they just set them that way. Just call them and they will manually give you the appointment in one of those “full” spots. They have been doing this since the big C hit.

Moroccan hospitality was like nothing i have ever experienced. I had a blast travelling around Morocco with the boys and we met some amazing people and made some great friends.

Humans chilling with humans, smiling, and having a good time. I love it. This is the kind of life I wish everyone could experience, all the time.

Sometimes the greatest adventures are away from our intended path, incredible vid!!

One week ago I needed an emergency passport too as my passport got stolen in a robbery in San Francisco. Luckily my home country has a consulate in SF and I could get an emergency document on the spot to get back home
Am so thankful that I wasn't stuck

This is what interaction between humans should be. It shouldn't matter where you come from, your background, etc., just be respectful and healthy curious about others. I wish you all serenity in your life. Much love from Italy. 💜

This vid came served up to me by the YT algorithm. This experience as it unfolded hit me in a surprising way, I started crying, out of nowhere, remembering all my own similar travel experiences of when I was your age, 20-30 years ago. I was young, single and in love with the world, these friends made I still have, and keep, and these experiences that I still cherish.
Your video really stuck the nerve, the emotions came in a flood.

You know you're in a house with a good vibe and a person of culture if they have a cat. This video randomly popped up on my feed and I’m so glad I watched it! What a beautiful video, an incredible story, and by letting the world guide you where you needed to end up, you got to experience the Sahara with what seems like an amazing, kind group of people! As a person who doesn’t travel much (I've been to just China, Vietnam, Singapore, and Russia), this is very inspiring, educational, and truly enjoyable! It is incredible to see how even though we may not understand what someone is saying verbally, we can all feel each other's emotions

Morocco fun fact: Morocco is famous for the tree-climbing goats, who climb such trees to eat argan fruit (which is then digested, and its kennels pooped out) as part of the process for argan oil.

YouTube better keep this up this time, because this is a straight masterpiece. Happy belated birthday Luke <3

Morocco is a special place that deserves so much more attention and love. I've been one time and will be back for sure.

Sometimes life just has other plans for you, and it's amazing when it works out! Going with the flow is the best way to travel. That emergency passport took you on such a great adventure. Not only did you get to camp in the Sahara, which few people can say they have even seen, but you also got rained on in the Sahara which is rarer still...and you experienced it all on your birthday...PRICELESS! And you formed friendships for a lifetime!

A fun fact about Morocco, Morocco was the first nation to publicly acknowledge American independence, allowing American flag-flying ships in their ports on December 20, 1777. France was the first in general as Louis XVI said he recognized the US on December 6, but he didn't sign the treaty.

Luke, I see you becoming more and more 'present' throughout the evolution of your channel. You oftentimes present challenging situations that could be perceived quite negatively, but then quickly turn them into deeply meaningful and positive experiences. I love the philosophical 'theme' - your videos are inspirational!

[MrLegendra]

I think if you used and uploaded your filled American passport details/scan then the visa would've been approved. Even if the US embassy punched holes in your old passport, I'm sure you must've had a scan on your PC. If you showed up at the border with your emergency passport you would've been ~85% let through. India's visa application uses a lot of AI and it must not have recognized the rare US emergency passport and sort of auto-rejected. Visiting the Indian Embassy in Europe would've been the better play.

Either way cool adventure! Highly recommend India, its an amazing place to travel to for sure.

Wow Luke, I watch many storytellers on YouTube but no one ever beats you! This was amazing! I mean all those unexpected situations and the people you’ve met and the way you tell the story! I’m in love with your work! Never give up, we needs you as our inspiration! You are naturally talented! Brilliant guy! Well done! Xx

[btattana]

This unexpected friendship with these beautiful people is so wonderful.

Things always happen for a reason . Without visa rejection you wouldn’t live fascinating experience in the Moroccan Sahara . Much thanks for the Moroccan guy who hosted you . Hospitality is deeply rooted in Moroccans
