      This video came up in my recommended and I’m just blown away by the whole adventure you’ve gone on. I wish I could watch the whole trip and maybe I will go back and watch your adventure in order. But I do have a question, how does this trip and the connections you’ve made been affected by Covid? After being on a global trip I can assume that your perspective on the impact of a global pandemic is probably quite different than the perspective I have or someone else who stays home mostly.

      @Stuart Carter It is interesting, because I have always given everything I made away, because it's value is something that is to great to slow others from. This and I am self taught, so no license to practice mental health, I just love the topic. But as far as my music, maybe I should shift gears and charge for that...

Well done Ed, I cant wait to see what you do next, I will be following along with enthusiasm and will be shouting to anyone who hears about your fantastic adventure(s)!!

      alleY821 No it's not. He didn't know he finished two years ago and assumed he was coming back to the pandemic. When people use imagine that way they aren't saying implying it didn't happen and to imagine if it did.
      They are saying imagine in the sense of imagine if you the subject(viewer) of the statement had to go through it as if he did go through that.
      Like if someone got hit on the back of the head with a bat, and someone said "damn imagine how much that would suck," he's not saying to imagine it like it didn't happen, he's saying imagine if it happened to you.

I cried when your Grandma was so happy to see you, how beautiful your relationship with them and the pride your grandfather had in his masterpiece as well as your accomplisment was truly moving. Beautiful landscape, warm friends and family and a safe trip overall really made for an epic finish. Loved the music, particularly at the end. So cool to watch you physically mature from a teenage boy to a young man and to see all the life experiences you had that will stay with you, including mtg your girlfriend. Very insane and inspiring all for such a great cause. Thankyou for all your hard work filming and allowing us to come along for the ride.

    I started watching his youtube series about a year ago. Its hard not to get tears in your eyes at the end. After everything he went through it was finally over. Toward the end you start to realize he was just and ordinary young man, with an extraordinary heart, personality, dream, and detirmination. All he had to do to start his dream was just start pedaling. It goes to show you that nothing is impossible. Once you get past your mental fears all you have to do is just start moving forward and never give up. Thank you for everything Ed. This was so inspiring. Its a bittersweet ending. Sad because this chapter is over😞 but sweet that you are finally home, and a new chapter begins. I wish you all the best my friend. Thank you for making all these videos. 🙂👍
