[@connorolaya9222]

Funny to think that each cut scene of him walking away from the camera, he had to walk right back. Lot of work!

[@mattk2219]

I was thinking that same thing - like, "is he climbing back down with that pack?" 😂

[@junklife2356]

Not really. he actually have multiple cameras so he keep all the cameras on on the way, and he take it back on the way back.

Babe wake up wholesomesimon uploaded again

I just woke up. It's 7am rn

[@JadenHercules]

Pls call me a babe.

[@blankets5782]

nature, when you strip away society, technology, and everything that makes us comfortable in our homes, really makes you value what you have. at home, we’re most likely thinking: “omgoodness, there are so many things I want to impulse buy.” but, when on a trail, we’re put into survivalist mode of “damn, I should’ve packed more water, food, wet wipes… :/” thank you, simon, for making this video and feeding us beautiful sunrises and sunsets. 😌

[@lizasoka]

Hey Simon, it's Liz from Germany. I want to speak out how thankful I am for you recording those type of videos. When I found your channel about 2 years ago you blew my mind with all of your wholesomeness. I have a few problems being only by myself, it's hard to be alone in silence but your video is a reminder that it might only take a bit more time to find my real inner peace. Have a good one!

[@JackyLi]

Thinking about the worst-case scenario isn't that bad sounds fitting to me. I could always go back to live with my parents and do freelancing again.

[@djbreakfast]

What an absolutely fantastic film. I love all the scrapbooky parts and your editing style and everything. You rule, Simon 🙌

[@wholesomesimon]

Thank you!!! Really appreciate it :,)))

[@marykern2259]

I had ACL surgery last week and this video made me go outside and read a book for an hour after spending days on my couch. Thank you for your content!

[@dimsumlover1]

yoooo simon, how's that 2021 friend group going? I'm pretty sure you guys went sperate ways, but rewatching that video really made me think that something between you and that friend group was special. Hope I get to see that friend group again!

[@malakk777]

[@Lyssabear]

Just found your channel today and let’s just say I needed it.

[@ayanastich4345]

Thank you 🍀💚

[@vbsounds18]

This vibe on such trips simply can’t be matched. This deeptalking in combination with the stunning landscape.

[@haya_0625]

I spent 31 minutes to watch the whole video!

[@girthquake5119]

Got to say I have nothing but love for this channel! And something about your editing style that I love! Keep it up bro

[@laurencampbell9021]

I respect how you so artfully share moments of your life :)

[@user-ul2zj6fb6n]

I can’t express how much you’ve helped me, I found your channel not too long ago (about a year) and it put me into a different perspective and helped me realize how to deal with everything and help others, you’ve helped me save others lives as well as my own. Thank you

[@irishkk]

you inspire me so much , i rlly get better every time i watch your new or old videos , they all js feel like home. tysm , simon , you're a wonderful person , i guess !! your creativity is so unique for me during the last few years , ty

[@chrispycrocs]

Wsp bro! I have been doing amazing. I've learned to play more music on my guitar, I've been drawing very well. I'm learning to live alone with my friends now. Thanks to you I can finally feel as if I'm meaningful to myself and I think I'm gonna go long and far into life. Thank you so much man.🫶🎸

[@user-iq2ws4bz4z]

25:19 Indeed a great message Simon, and an ever better job on the video, Not too easy to live by in this ever-consuming world, but you and this video especially bring a sense of child-like innocence that is so often overlooked. Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities Forget about your worries and your strife I mean the bare necessities, old mother nature's recipes That bring the bare necessities of life Wherever I wander, wherever I roam I couldn't be fonder of my big home The bees are buzzin' in the tree To make some honey just for me When you look under the rocks and plants And take a glance at the fancy ants, then maybe try a few The bare necessities of life will come to you They'll come to you! Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities Forget about your worries and your strife I mean the bare necessities That's why a bear can rest at ease With just the bare necessities of life Now when you pick a paw-paw or a prickly pear And you prick a raw paw, well, next time beware Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw When you pick a pear try to use the claw But you don't need to use the claw When you pick a pear of the big paw-paw Have I given you a clue? The bare necessities of life will come to you They'll come to you! Oh man, that's really livin' So just try and relax, yeah, cool it Fall apart in my backyard 'Cause let me tell you something little britches If you act like that bee acts, uh uh You're working too hard And don't spend your time lookin' around For something you want that can't be found When you find out you can live without it And go along not thinkin' about it I'll tell you something true The bare necessities of life will come to you Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities Forget about your worries and your strife I mean the bare necessities That's why a bear can rest at ease With just the bare necessities of life Yeah, with just the bare necessities of life!

[@vbsounds18]

I love your content

[@user-cv4ir6pc6v]

I checked the website out, well done Simon! I loved the little montage on the home page. I'm not much of a coffee or matcha person but I would for sure buy the apparel.

[@Thorfinthegirlversion]

No wayyyyyy OUR SIMON APLoaDED !!!! FINALLY DUDEE I'VE BEEN WAITING

[@liq_ft4555]

nice video, your videos are actually so good.

[@mcduck_33]

The monologue in the middle is exactly why i love to watch you Simon! Keep up the wonderful work and looking forward to all the nature content moving forward

[@raissasantos130]

Que gracinha esse garoto 😊

[@friendly76]

Great video and great thoughts you shared. And the ending was hilarious and unexpected! 😄

[@ericberg4583]

Website looks insane bro. The aesthetic of those clips is perfect brother.

[@joshuaramos8685]

Made me feel something

[@alexmueller9837]

im going to yosemite this summer and I could not be more excited

[@lunavanderknaap2805]

I’m late but thank you for posting this video!! Beautiful shots, beautiful hike and beautiful talks along the way🌞🧡

[@lifecore1]

Love your videos, they’re so inspiring. I want to make more videos like yours, too 🫶

[@TomInTheSky2001]

You do inspire me to get outside more. I love your content and your authenticity inspires my own in my videos. I'm looking forward for what's to come :)

[@8888cicy]

I have watched you video for a longtime.You really inspire a lot.

[@ellisondueck]

this is sick Simon

[@kacpergraversen1939]

Mandelbro and the youtube new wave are one of the best combos to date, hahah. Stunning national park as well! Wish I can experience any of the of the many american national parks some day.

[@wearetrackclub]

Love your video style, Simon! This was so meditative and enjoyable to watch. Keep inspiring! 😌👏

[@shua_films]

What a SOLID video man!!

[@emmakate2376]

this is one of my favorite videos of yours. Brought up a lot of good memories and joy plus i love this kind of adventurous content. Definitely will buy some of your coffee in the near future love that it’s organic and grown on a regenerative farm!

[@NWBHUNTER]

As someone who completed the west coast trail (look it up, it's tough), this video is incredible, and im going to do some backpacking myself soon! Amazing content!

[@EvanHailes]

Thank you for this video bro! You’re showing people how easy life can be when take a step back and just enjoy the moments. Like you said “it’s not that deep.” We don’t always have to contemplate and overthink everything. Just go outside and breathe!!!!!

[@leeleesanders523]

This has gotta be the funniest and most real video in the world. I think having those moments where you talked about missing that vanilla latte really made it more relatable. Your other videos are masterpieces and always motivate me, but to see that even you crave sugar and sweets while being in those beautiful areas, it makes your life seem less like a dream and more like a person trying to live life in the moment. Your channel is always a great reminder that there is so much more than school and becoming a doctor, lawyer, or business woman. That to live is to love and to love is to keep on moving no matter the bumps in the road. Keep doing what you love Simon; you're making a difference in the world whether it feels like it or not.

[@bart6753]

I love the vibe, please take us with you again on your next trip Simon! I went on my first solo trip to San Francisco last year and it was a lot of fun. But you inspired me to try a solo hiking trip one day

[@isabellaramirez7713]

This channel is my favorite. Is like a motivation for enjoy the beauty things of the life. Thank you so much for your videos

[@chillinandkillin9539]

can see you doing a short thru hike with some friends or people in creator camp. lot of planning & preparation but it would do really well

[@chillinandkillin9539]

lol you mention doing more in later vids a couple minutes later in the video

[@Caleb_Kelly]

Beautiful I’ve loved you since the beginning💛

[@beeswildlife]

It's so cool to see you experience the magic and joy of backpacking!!! Looked like an epic hike! Can't watit to bring Sunnyday on my next backpacking trip!!

[@wholesomesimon]

Much love Bee :,)

[@MobileMinecraftGuy]

Simon, you should take a trip to a tropical place!

[@sunflower_mj772]

[@bobzavon]
