Bless your beautiful heart Bruce, any female will be lucky to have you care about her. I went through a horrible toxic situation w/a guy who was on drugs and he treated me horrible (I didn't know he was on drugs for 2.5 yrs) so to see such a beautiful connection makes me believe it's still out there...don't know if I will ever find that again but it warms my heart to know there are still good and kindhearted men out there.

Bruce, Jana was what the universe knew you needed. For those of us who have had our hearts pummeled in the past it is easy to look the other way when opportunity knocks...I'm glad you answered the door and found a great friendship with Jana. I'm glad I was able to meet her...she is a beautiful soul. I wish I could give you a big hug- you got this kid...and the early videos are not crap-they are just learning opportunities...LOL

Bruce, you look so happy. I think this has been a great experience. I think you will see her again. I think you are having a lot of new chapters in your life this summer. Thanks for sharing and take your time adjusting....Thanks for sharing... It's always great to meet a friend....or soul mate....Time to get that passport Bruce....Best Regards..

As a local, the video gives the impression that this is a huge trip when in fact, Campbell River to Nanaimo is only an hour and a half. Can't blame you for extending the time with the lady friend. Heartfelt. The cinematic music makes the short trip captivating👍

Yeah, Campbell River to Nanaimo is a commute I do twice a week. I have an EV so it’s no biggie. Looks like you’re parked close to where I live. It’s a beautiful city.

I moved to Campbell River 7 years ago from Vancouver, best move I ever made. Love it here. Although it has gotten busier since 2017. It use to be when I moved here hardly any traffic at all. To now there being quite a bit. Sad to see because I love small places. But I guess that's to be expected, but I get your feelings about it here. Best place I ever lived. Safe travels.

You've become a better man for having met Yana, and I feel like you will see each other again. Maybe she would consider doing a channel from Germany and showing us all around that beautiful country? Congratulations Bruce on 8000 and many more to come!

Thank you for sharing your life. ❤❤❤

Our island does have spectacular places to visit and amazing scenery. Orcas have been spotted close to shore round Victoria, you may luck out and see one. It is a great drive down. That was Loreen 😁 aww Bruce, affairs of the heart are incredibly difficult yet beautiful, I have been there in my 65 years on this planet. 🤗☀️

You have come a long way in the past 2 years and it was due to your hard work. I was there at the beginning and remembered when you were living in a broken down van on the side of the road. It was a rough time but you didn't give up. It was cold & you were hungry a lot of the time. I would like to see where you are in another 20 years. You will probably be a very successful business man.

My bit of advice would be to put the plan into place between now and the end of the year. Grind each day, writing down new ideas, speaking with your vanlife friends/family/peers, experimenting, then making changes as you see fit. Big things will come for you in '25, Bruce. You're too good of person for it NOT to happen! 👊

Maybe this wasn't the time for your paths to run parallel just yet. Just crossing them right now. I truly believe that what is meant to be will be. That being said, saying goodbye to someone you enjoy spending time with really sucks. Sending hugs.
