i tried camping in california... and it didn't go as planned
our camping trip to sequoia national forest didn’t exactly go as planned... freezing temps, a windy campsite, and a hike that took an unexpected turn. we only lasted one night, but it made for a story worth sharing! 🏕️
i'm really excited to share that this is my first video edited by me (thanks to some awesome lessons taught by justin at www.cinemadisco.com)!
watch to see how this not-so-epic (but still fun) California camping trip unfolds! 🌟

    • @jenontherunn
      @jenontherunn 2 місяці тому

      If you are already afraid of heights, it is a scary ride going up. Going down is much easier. However, I think if you stay in the middle and look at the floor, that might help. My stepmother is afraid of heights and she has managed to do it twice! The tram does not sway in the wind. At about two points there is a little "bump" when it goes over the tall pole

    You can't fix this problem by changing behavior. The only real lever you have is the artificial creation of scarcity. And the mechanism by which you employ that lever is price. To actually moderate demand, you must substantially increase price. You will get a "higher quality" tourist - at least in terms of spending power. You will not get some egalitarian queue divorced from economic means. Is that what you want? There is an unspoken undercurrent in this discussion. "Cheap airline flights have opened up travel to a large number of people who couldnt previously afford it." It seems people don't want to face the implications of the solutions they seek.

    Barcelona citizen here. A couple of weeks ago this August, thanks to the tourists from the Airbnb apartments who broke (again) the elevator over the weekend with the weight of their suitcases (despite the warnings inside the elevator) my 80-year-old parents, and specifically my father who is in a wheelchair and who live on the 6th floor, had to come and live in my apartment until the technicians came to repair it (because it was a summer vacation period and also a weekend). Some of the older neighbors who live in the building were unable to go outside for the same reason. F-CK Airbnb! Tourist go home!!
