@@fatherjohnmitski Bottling up clownery really is so 2021. Now it’s all about not giving a damn about made up concepts such as ‘awkwardness’.

Omg that would be so cool 😧

[@danielaporubanova3152]

Hi! As a person from Slovakia, I must say our capital city is really ugly. Please Damon ( or anyone else reading this comment ;) ) next time visit Banská Štiavnica, a beautiful, antique, romantic town just like from a fairytale! Lovely cafes, history, views, and affordable prices for such a gem in Europe.

[@Nerdy.Travel]

Couldn't agree more, Bratislava is the capital but absolutely not impressive compared to other, way smaller, Slovak cities. Still, I am quite surprised Damon went for a visit!🤩

[@saskiamitrik230]

100% agree!!!

[@Jess-zy3ke]

also Tatry, Slovenský raj etc. for the amazing nature and cozy cottages ;)

[@melissaahoell]

Bratislava Is not ugly. My family took a europe trip and it was one of our fav places. Compared to where we live in the US, ur city is beautiful. Sometimes u don’t realize what u have, until other people point it out. Yes there may be some cooler things, but nah the capital is really gorgeous.

[@BubbleInThePond]

I have lived in Bratislava for 4 years and I loved it 💗 I don’t find it ugly at all, and the people are so nice there. One of my favourite cities in Europe 😊

[@malloryb21]

[@damondominique]

*welcome to the club!!!!* 🤗

[@agasays]

Exactly! I love Damon talking abt Philosophical stuff and he made me feel so much better about career, hearbreaks etc many times

[@jjbartula]

I cannot stop getting surprised each time Damon notices something as simple as a castle, when me, who lived in Europe for solid 17 years would not even care cause the buildings look so similar everywhere😂 and I mean it in the best way possible! It's nice to see someone else's perspective and maybe reignite interest in the motherland, since we all take it for granted most of the time.

[@iCharlyprime]

Yeeees omg

[@sydneybrown2000]

Seeing Damon sing "Air Force Ones" is so hilarious given that I JUST saw his comments randomly in one of Nelly's music video a few days ago lol. It's the authenticity for me 😂

[@kaylariggs5188]

I love damon's style. It's cool, not too loud, it's not like "label-y"; it's chill but yet you don't know who he is! Sometimes you can figure a person out to some degree just by the way they present themselves. Damon is very individual and his own person.

[@senioraelis]

i truly loved this, thanks for ur efforts damon really shows up💗

[@jasminetaylor7223]

i love how all your videos have high rewatchability. there’s a common thread that makes everything inexplicably “damon” but every damon is a little bit different. it’s almost like as a viewer you get to choose which version you are that day. anyways if you get a tv, movie, direct something i’ll be watching xoxo

Don't miss Poland next time, Damon ;-) So fun to watch, you're so gifted to make mundane things exciting.

[@chriscze6153]

As someone moving to Warsaw very soon, and absolutely loves other cities too, can't help but agree. But to be honest Poland might be better left off as a relatively undiscovered treasure, or at least to those who know how to appreciate it.

[@c0d1ngclips25]

from an outsider perspective, i heard that poland is pretty homophobic. any insider who can falsify/verify this?

[@travellifefree]

@@chriscze6153 was just there, it's awesome but Krokow is more incredible!

[@travellifefree]

@@c0d1ngclips25 oh no, actually Polish people treat foreigners better than other Poles. It's in the mentality that a guest must be treated like a king.

[@saunter5130]

As a polish person I can’t really come up with one answer. As far as I’ve noticed we tend to live in our bubbles so it’s really hard to make connection with us. But I guess it’s a case for most of the Eastern Europeans due to lack of trust to others. There was an information spread about homophobia in Poland which is true. The authorities are trying to emphasis division among society and they’re playing games using minorities. In general most of the people are tolerant and understanding. But it’s all new to them.

[@Sasha-qf8eu]

Mainland Europe seems incredible. I live in Stockholm and don't get me wrong, I LOVE this city. But if I jump on a train and go south I'm still in Sweden after 5 hours. Jumping from country to country in an hour or two must feel amazing.

With every new video, I'm just in awe of Damon's storytelling and filming talents! Like wutttt all those audio details and filming angles!! GENIUS, PERIOD.

[@RosaDaniello]

I love everything about your storytelling, editing and just being you in general. Sometimes you put a "simple" shot with a different camera angle but it looks like a masterpiece because you are skilled and you are loudly being yourself. I love this about you, it makes me feel like being yourself is the best thing you can do and you can have fun with it and be entertaining at the same time and provide value. I said you're skilled but you indeed have a talent for this. Thank you for being a source of inspiration and just happiness. Love following your adventures around the world ! (and thank you for showing the real struggles as well lol)

[@aurelien22]

Damon you don't realise how much you've influenced my life in such an amazing way! After binge watching literally every single of your videos I now want to travel Europe alone!

[@IoanaIrinaM]

In the past few years I felt like I've been stuck (don't we all?). Because of Covid and lots of hard work for Uni I started to experience anxiety and feel like I don't have any energy left for my future, everything was kind of the same you know? I used to watch the ShutUpandGo channel while in high school and dream about all the travels and life changing experiences that I'm going to have in the future. I even had this notepad where I would write down tips for when I'll be over 18 and be able to travel the world. I forgot all about that. But now, years later, watching your videos which full of energy and your free nature I remembered! I remembered all about my plans and felt that itch for exploring once again! I don't really know where I'm going from here, but I can only hope is somewhere far away :) What I'm trying to say is Thank you Damon! You're pretty cool! *also for everyone who's going through some tough times, I feel for you and send you all my love and support. You got this!

[@MichelleFrancLee]

[@aworldofhoney]

I owe a lot to the matrix too! The agent smiths are everywhere but we aligning to meet the neos and trinitys 😌

[@bogarrett3619]

It's a shame so much was closed in Bratislava! A few years back I was in Paris waiting in line for the Catacombs and spoke with two Slovakian women. Had never heard much about Slovakia other than it formerly being Yugoslavia and a part of the USSR. Our conversation peaked my interest so I added a few days onto my trip to Budapest and explored. It quickly became one of my favorite cities in Europe. It was the summer and there were outdoor markets, it was easily navigatable, the beer was phenomenal, very affordable for the young traveler and the people were very welcoming and content with their quieter way of life in the backdrop of tourist megacenters such as Budapest, Prauge, and Vienna all being a stones throw away. I dined in a restaurant atop a tower on a bridge overlooking the old part of the city and the soviet housing blocs and attended a summer folk festival on castle grounds. It really is a great place, hopefully if we ever stop reeling from COVID you can return and enjoy it in it's full glory! A hidden gem if you ask me but not so hidden anymore! Best of luck on your travels- have followed you for quite a few years now and your content is A1- be safe out there!

Since you like the matrix you should definitely read The Third Eye by Sophia Stewart! It is the original story that they didn’t credit in the movie

[@vc6393]

Damon! Please talk more about your perspective on the matrix and on life in general. I’d love to hear more about your thoughts seeing that you recognize the free will that you have. I admire how you take advantage of that perspective by traveling and living life and loving on your own terms! 🧡

[@damondominique]

I try to include those thoughts as much as possible without the videos getting too heavy or dense! Glad you like it tho!!!

[@piamai5506]

Wondering if you ever have a feeling that a trip wasn't worth it because f.e. everything was closed? Do you ever not enjoy your trip?

[@damondominique]

Ok so: if you go to a city and everything‘s closed rn, I’m not sure if it’s worth it, especially in the dead of winter where you’re honestly just walking around freezing or paying for an AirBNB just to be doing the same things you’d be doing back home. HOW-EVERRR, if you’re staying in the forest or mountains (like I was), I think it’s definitely a nice getaway! This being said, no matter where you go (closed or not), sometimes it is just nice to get “away.”

[@Roshayyy]

Damon baby... you have the most beautiful editing in this KZbin world. feels kinda like I'm watching a movie/ "chewing gum" styled travel show/documentary LOL. super unique. Don't know you in person but you are badass. I've been watching your vids since like 2014
