Hi German it's me Lucy Elvis in Houston, Texas! I'm at work right now at Memorial Hermann hospital in the medical center. Looking at this video on my break. Your really making me miss Venice!
I must admit, when I am feeling low here in cold and wet lockdown London, I watch one of your videos and it always brings a smile to my face. Best Wishes.
I love your enthusiasm about living in california. I live in northern california. I've always been fascinated with life down south. I love the way you are when your showing places with pictures. I'm the same way. Thank you for bringing it to our homes. How awesome it must have been when you got to party so close to all of those stars.
You have such an appreciation for where you are now...I wish more people were like that That beach looks amazing...yes there are happy people who love their life there 😊🌅⛱ and nice to hear of your story of how you started here in America It was funny of hear your imitation of Arnold 💪🏋️♂️
Simple times back then Mike. Now it seems complicated even confusing some days. Stay safe & healthy ... make more 4k videos ! Venice Beach still beautiful.
Wow, got a whole new respect for you GiV. You're just like Arnold, no and can't aren't in you vocabulary, you just make it happen. He bought apartments when he first moved out here, but you're the man GiV, and absolutely love your videos, and how you help the people in your neighborhood with doing these videos, is just tremendous.
Man. Being Someone from wi, who has never even seen the ocean, I absolutely love your videos. Can’t stop watching. Seeing how DIFFERENT things are there. Wow!
Los Angeles. Classic and iconic. I haven't been back in 9 years, back when I was 12 years old in 2012, but I just got accepted to UCLA's Aerospace Engineering PhD so I'm stoked! This year might finally be my excuse to go back! And not just to visit, but to stay!
Thank you for mentioning us all, Mike! That made me feel a little embarrassed! 😅🙈 Please continue with your great stories from your past or present! Always interesting! 👍🏻
My brother you never disappoint love the story about you coming into America hustling sodas better than selling crack I tell you that my friend way better now I know where I can find you in Venice Beach long hair Lacey out from Northern California
@@aonoymousandy7467 hey genius America wasn't a country back when there was just native Americans on it. It was just a bunch of land with a bunch of different tribes on it that hated each other
I worked with a Chinese guy. He would say in China you could work hard a week and have nothing. Not even rice. In the US you work a week and have a home food and can buy shoes. God bless America.
Picture looks great, I'm watching on my nice TV with an Amazon Fire-Stick from glorious Santa Monica, always enjoy your content and show! edit: as I watch your video, I've been here 35 years, I do remember you from back in the day selling on the beach! I was out at the beach all the time back then
I got a story from Iowa. Late 1940s and early 50s. My mom left a little town outside of des Moines and took I bus to Venice California . She got a job at Douglas aircraft where Marilyn worked before she was really a star. In the daytime she weight trained on the beach , and swan. At 3p.m.went to work. She meet a body builder on the beach who was actually from des Moines. They got married and opened up the very first health club in Iowa. To this day I weight train. Love me it.
I love how you talk to us, even asking us questions like we can answer you. You make it feel as if I’m right there with you. You’re such a great guy I know you’d be fun to hang out with. 💕😜
I grew up a couple miles up the beach from Venice, across the marina jetty in Playa del Rey in the 60s-70s. It was a calmer more quiet beach. As I became a teen, wanting to get our own pad, we all headed to Venice to live because believe it or not, it was cheaper! Plus it was waaay more exciting stuff going down at Venice beach! I left LA years ago but I do love watching what's going down there now! Thank you
I admire your pluck when you 1st went into business in America upon arriving. Your’s is the classic American story. You are what makes America great. Germany’s loss is America’s gain.
What a wonder life you have had so far, Mike! You are a fine example of a life well-lived. I hope to emulate you and become as positive in life as you are. More power to your vlog.
I love seeing people doing there activity even during covid-19 they still come along to see the sunset Thank you for sharing this video mike,stay safe mike godbless
Thanks so much for sharing - I love Venice Beach - was born and raised there, till have an apartment as my get-a-way and now that covid is easing up a bit I hope to be back pretty soon. Thanks for sharing - love your videos.
Thank you for your awesome videos. You make me smile every time I watch your videos. As a bodybuilder back in the day I can relate to all your Muscle Beach videos.
It seems that travelers from Europe are so friendly and personable. No problem in relating other than a better understanding of the English language. Also being funny also helps. You will be fine.
I miss what it used to be. Surely don't miss paying all those taxes for a crime ridden state beleagured by fires and earthquakes and mudslides and and and
LOVE,LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. LOVE YOUR VOICE & ACCENT. YOUR VIDEOS ARE SO ENTERTAINING AND WITH YOUR CHARM & PERSONALITY MAKES IT EVEN BETTER. YOU ARE A VERY GOOD LOOKING GUY, JUST LIKE YOU ARE. NO NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT, WHO WANTS TO SEE A SKINNY TEDDY BEAR. KEEP UP YOUR WONDERFUL VODEOS
You are a happy guy. The world needs more people like you
That’s so true!
True.
Agreed!
Notice he never talks about politics.
I was a Venice Beach LG in the 90’s. I remember Mike very well. I always gave him a pass for an ice cream sandwich! Thanks Mike.
Cool thanks
@anonymous a pass for not snitching about Mike selling items on the beach.
Corruption at its best jijii jk
That’s great!
Typical liberal two faced Biden voter.
Love learning about your history. Great pictures.
Thank you for another great video you're always so awesome such a happy man we need more people like you

My brother you never disappoint love the story about you coming into America hustling sodas better than selling crack I tell you that my friend way better now I know where I can find you in Venice Beach long hair Lacey out from Northern California
You came to America, legally I presume, you hustled, and you persevered. THAT, is an awesome American immigration story :)
Lol santa Monica is filled with illegal immigrants from england and Europe. Shows how much you know!
You native American?
Great attitude on GiV, everybody down there loves the guy.
@@aonoymousandy7467 hey genius America wasn't a country back when there was just native Americans on it. It was just a bunch of land with a bunch of different tribes on it that hated each other

Dude. What a great story of your first job and experience and love you have for Venice Love it
I got a story from Iowa. Late 1940s and early 50s. My mom left a little town outside of des Moines and took I bus to Venice California . She got a job at Douglas aircraft where Marilyn worked before she was really a star. In the daytime she weight trained on the beach , and swan. At 3p.m.went to work. She meet a body builder on the beach who was actually from des Moines. They got married and opened up the very first health club in Iowa. To this day I weight train. Love me it.
