    Lars heard his name and was ready to go. Thanks for a lovely video; the background stories, moments of quiet, music, and food were perfect. I have a high demand job in healthcare. I watch your videos often to unwind. Wishing you continued peace and blessings.

    Loved your adventures they are so calming to me. You show us so many nice things, your cooking, hiking, friends you meet along the way. Quiet simple routine of life and you sometimes just sit and talk. You don't cloud your vlog with advertising stuff the a quiet nomad needs. Being a good nomad is a simple quiet life with life's necessarily. I love how comfy your van home looks. It looks like a welcome place to come home to. Love how you made your vlogs and your calming beautiful voice.

    How cool to be walking on the stairs and little bridge you and your friends built 4 years ago. What an accomplishment - you should be proud. The trail is so beautiful and feels so peaceful. You shared some interesting facts about the redwoods, amazing, and the area. That burrito looked better than the original food you bought, Thank you so much for sharing this special day with us. OMG, Lars is so darn cute!

    Hey Mateo! I've been binge watching your videos, so relaxing. When you eat, I sometimes pause and make me a plate or snack. Can't figure out why I'm gaining weight and you're NOT! 😮
    Oh! SPRINKLE BAKING SODA IN THE LITTER BOX, START WITH FRESH LITTER, SO YOU CAN KEEP TRACK OF WHEN YOU NEED TO ADD MORE.
    ( BUY GOOD, STRONG BAKING SODA FOR BETTER PROTECTION.) Also,, place a open box in the van. ( OPEN WHERE INSTRUCTED ON THE BOX ) BAKING SODA CAN ALSO BE SPRINKLED ON THE FLOOR AND BEDDING. It will change your life. KEEP UP THE LONG VIDEOS, REMEMBER, WE CAN CONTROL HOW LONG WE WATCH. Add more ads with longer videos, potty or snack breaks = more $$. ❤ God Bless

    Mateo, your pride in your work was palpable. Honestly, I could almost see you working alongside your companions and trying to do the best job you can. What an accomplishment! one that you can visit for the rest of your life. That was quite a hike, huh? i used to hike but I'm much too lazy to go very far now. Always afraid I'll be too worn out to make it back. That happened to me once. My legs were like rubber and my feet felt like I had glass sticking in them and I cried the whole way back. FUN TIMES!! Lars is a sweetie. I have two puppies who are 14 years old. They are a pekinese and dachcund mix. I know I spelled those wrong. Where is spellcheck when you need it. Anyway, Dexter and Spencer are just as lively as they were when I got them at 8 weeks. I keep wondering when they will slow down. They are so loveable and so smarr. Like bad children, they are. I know I'm rambling about my little poopoos, but I love them soooo much. Nice burrito! I'm gonna get me one of those heating bags.They seem awesome to have. See you on your next video!
