Following your dreams and being passionate about something makes you rich in life in my books. Rooting for you!!

[@funzbunz]

Really nice to hear the inside story on what's been going on with you. Sounds like you've made a brilliant decision, working on something you love with happiness instead of a grind that has less passion. Keep going with both your paid work and with this channel, even if it's less frequent we will all still be here to cheer you along the way.

[@JacobCarlson]

I love this vid man. Thanks for sharing the story- I knew a bunch of it from our photo walks and stuff, but hearing it all in one place is not only inspiring, but it's just wholesome af. I'm really happy for you, and I'm sure the pieces of the puzzle will keep coming together because you kick ass at what you. And more importantly, you're a genuine person. And thanks for letting me wave in your vid lol. Cheers man, happy holidays.

[@DeusExMachino]

If you liked Guananajuato should visit San Miguel De Allende is an hr away from Guanajuato a very colonial and colorful pueblo magico. If you like photography is definitely a must. Cheers

[@JacobCarlson]

Thanks for the suggestion!
