"I got laid off. No hard feelings. The company had to downsize. I get it." Those words hit home. I just got laid off because of COVID-19's impact, and man, it sucks. But your video makes me smile, and I do realize I'm not the only one who is jobless during this challenging time. Hope I will find a bright light at the end of the tunnel, soon. Thank you for the inspiration, Michael. You and your video saved a soul today. P.S. I just found out your channel via David from Vancouver's video. Cheers to both of you guys for making us smile with your cool videos. Stay safe, and please take care.

Well, I'm almost 2 years behind but here's my take: I've been watching your videos for a bit and took the plunge to subscribe because of your positive energy, the fact you take us to unusual places and we experience some things we might have not thought of had we not seen you experiencing them, you are always nice and it seems you try to engage people you meet along the way and you don't talk down to people or try to convince us to take a trip to some insanely expensive stuffy place. You take us to ordinary places and show us how to enjoy being alive and go with the flow. That's my kind of traveling. As for demographics: I'm 63 years old, live in South Carolina (USA) and travel when I can. I prefer the country to the city therefore I live on the outskirts of a medium sized city but am building a small farm in the country where I may retire someday. Stay safe traveling and see you on your next adventure. ~Sherrie in South Carolina

Back in the mid 1990s I rode the Amtrak "City of New Orleans" to Chicago for a news assignment. I was assigned a large "Accessible" room because I had so much video equipment that I brought along with me. I also spent most of the time in the observation/club car. Fun trip!

I started by watching your many train trips. Loved them. I am a little older person and so some of the craziness is a bit over the top for me but I look past that and enjoy the adventure. I hope you continue to have great success with your venture. I love people with the guts to take an idea and create their own business. Education these days seems to prepare people for working for someone else. Being an entrepreneur is where it's at.

You remind me of myself when I was young. I started in 1958 shooting 8mm film. Through the years I have done every thing except be in front of the lenses. I to often wondered what was next. My biggest shoot was Sr. Technical producer for the 7 year shoot we had 37 16mm cameras and shot enough film to go around the world. Documenting the trans Skaskin pipeline. I got the contract because I repaired an out of sync intermittent movement on an Aries camera while waiting to talk with the executive producer. I envy you and wish you the best. My family is from Brantford, Ont. I retired just across the Detroit River. In a suburb of Detroit. My worst shoot was from 65 to 71. Just out of highschool I unlisted in the Airforce as a film camera man and spent the time doing combat films.

Watching form Austin, TX (born and raised)! You did some off season magic to make Barton Springs and the Oasis look empty! I really love your vlog channel, its one of my favorites for sure. I keep watching because you are cheerful but realistic, fun but practical, prepared but are no stranger to a backup plan. I really enjoy the ones with your girlfriend Nicole?, she is awesome. I even laugh at your super corny Dad jokes. I have been to the PNW/VanBC/Rockies once a few summers ago, and all I think about is going back. I loved your 5 places to stop on the way to Tofino video, and that led me to your Ucluelet video. I did a google map of Seattle (cheapest to fly to from ATX) to Ucluelet directions and found I could easily revisit my favorite places from my previous trip, then add a ton of new places. I never really could figure out the best way to revisit that area of the continent, but that solved the puzzle! Thanks Mike.

Hi Michael, my name is Sam and I used to live in Vancouver but I just recently moved back home to China but I will still keep watching your video. I personally like to see the travel video but I want to thank you for showing some Chinese elements in your video about Vancouver (I remember you once mentioned that early Chinese immigrants had sacrificed their lives in building the Canadian National railway, etc), I know the Culture is very different and it must be HARD for you so it is very touching to see them. I bet a lot of new BC people would watch your video as a way to guide their life living in BC, if you could continue to discover some interesting BC spots with relatively short commute time from Vancouver, such as 9'o o'clock gun in Stanley park, then those people will benefit a lot. I hope your channel continues to be successful and I do really miss BC, stay safe and welcome to China one day.

Coming from the US we only know a limited amount like downtown but you might have some other ideas. Or even just to share a little more out-of-the-way places, special places that you know. You do a nice job. You make it interesting. You know a lot about Canada so it would be nice to have your perspective for people who want to travel there. Medium budget. The canals in the UK were interesting. I never knew about them. Thanks. You have such a positive way of sharing.

My initial thought was that it was a brave move to even tackle such a dull subject given the deteriorated state of our rail system. However your coverage gave me a new sense of adventure if I need to travel between cities on the few routes that still exist. Having lived, travelled and worked much of my life and career in Europe spoiled me as to how convenient and efficient rail travel can be.

I am enjoying your vlogs, especially the railroad products which are really first rate. You can judge how well a video was produced if it gives you experience envy. I want to do the train experiences across the northern US, but also across a very green Canada. You make it look fun and we all could use some fun about now. However, I am commenting about something else beyond complimenting the quality of your work. Have you ever reached out to that college you graduated from about teaching classes on how to use and build quality products as perspective KZitemrs (with other social media too)? I teach classes online all the time and you could do this around your schedule. I think you would be really good at it. While you may not have a graduate degree, something many schools require, you have a lot of really good experience and a ready-made portfolio in this site. I look forward to your travel videos when the pandemic ends. God bless you, Michael, and good luck with your KZitemry. Stay safe, I had to shake off that bit when you were motorcycling with a friend and you took both your hands off the bars in exhilaration. Don't do that any more and I suspect your mom would agree with me (but probably not your dad). Well, in any case, I don't know what you're going to produce next, but I know I want you in it (ha! Did you see what I did there?).

I’m from Western Australia. I Love your video of the train ride in Scotland. Thank goodness I stumbled on your channel as I’m sick of fashion blogs and can’t bare to watch anymore of them. Just love the travel videos.

Hello! Just answering your question (many years later). I'm Beckie from the Illinois side of the St. Louis, Missouri 🇺🇸 area. 👋 I found your channel about a week ago because I am curious about Amtrak travel across the US. After one episode I was convinced you are somehow related to Brayden Schenn (Sasky fella) of the St. Louis Blues, I subscribed, & I've been binge-watching your episodes ever since. Honestly, I'm really disappointed the KZitem algorithm didn't recommend this channel to me yrs ago. Travel vlogs are my favorite and I love Canada. Well, I'm making up for it now. Carry on! 🚂 ✈️ 🚙

I'm watching from Ottawa, though I've visited Vancouver every few years since 1983. I'm most interested in your behind the scenes videos of the transit system; the trolleybus system - now the only one in Canada - would be a good subject.

Just found you because of trains and Scotland. I am from Novi Michigan, 30 minutes North West of Detroit. We bought the tall roof Promaster for customizing to travel. My goal would be to mix it up with train trips and jaunts overseas. Thank you for your content. It is very inspiring and helpful. Cheers!

And now, 100,000s of subscribers later, you have made a name. You have a very engaging personality, with a real zest for adventure. I have only recently discovered you (via Will Rossy), but I am impressed. I can imagine you were a bit of a prankster in school, but I am jealous of that class in film production you took in the Holly Van days. I am more interested in travels & adventures than the behind-the-scenes stuff. I have been to all 50 states and every province, except PEI and Newfoundland, and lived in 10 states, including 5 years in Seattle and 1 in Portland. I have been to Vancouver numerous times and love BC - thecparadise of North America. I am currently in Beaufort, SC - outside Charleston, and spend some summer months in New Hampshire - to escape the humidity and hurricane threats. Love both places at their prime season, but was raised in the Detroit, Michigan area. However, left the state after graduating UMichigan to explore the world, seek nicer places and better weather. Except for the high taxes (and the Covid tyranny), I like much of Canada - especially BC and the great city of Montreal on the eastern side of the country.

I just found your channel today and have really enjoyed watching your vlogs. I have watched Lost LeBlanc's vlogs for awhile now and I recently found a channel featuring living in a tiny RV based out of Halifax so I am having a great time visiting Canada and seeing places that I have not seen before. Currently, I live in Phoenix(and it is still hot here) but have had homes in Anchorage and Seattle and have traveled the world so thanks for all your hard work in bringing your journey to life and I wish you only the best!

Michael I have been watching you for a few months. I tend to like the adventure videos with a little history behind what I am watching. That’s why I subscribed. You are very comfortable in front of camera and take the time to tell viewers a little of what we are watching. Your Good content and edit will keep me watching. I am in Amesbury MA. USA. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! 👍👍

I stumbled across your site when I saw your trip aboard the Alaska ferry from Bellingham, WA, which is where I live. I have been hooked and watching your videos on a daily basis. I really like following your adventures. I worked as a travel writer and photographer and love seeing where you go next.

Hey. Toronto here. The polar bear video was the first one that brought me to your channel. It was really good. But others are cool too. Something remote/off the beaten path is always interesting.
