    This Northern Californian is living for this series, Jacob. Thanks for showing people that SF isn't entirely the dystopian hellscape the news tries to sell it as. It has its problems, but the city has been healing, and is truly a special place. Just wish it was more affordable for the average folk. Please come back again soon, and let me know if you want to explore Sacramento. I used to be a UA-camr and am not camera shy. 🤣

As someone who doesn't drive I m finding it so interesting what is available using public transport. Also love looking out those train windows at slices of America. Keep up the good work. Best wishes from the UK.

    A student at the University of California, Berkeley made a brilliant color coded map that shows the elevations of the streets in San Francisco which is helpful to residents and travelers alike. It's available online. Shortly after the TransAmerica pyramid was built my 6th grade class was invited by the CEO of the company to visit his penthouse office where he told us about the earthquakes safety systems built into the building and other bits of information. The view was spectacular as it is from Coit Tower. Thanks for sharing travel in my hometown and favorite city. I left my heart in San Francisco.

    Loving these videos, went to SF a "few" years ago and did a lot of these things, bringing back memories. Would love to go again. Have you been to the Walt Disney Family museum and Lucasfilm offices? I haven't watched all these videos yet. My friend and I somehow rode public transit all day for $1, fun times! I think we walked up to go to the Coit tower and gave up when we saw the stairs. Very interesting place.

    there is no one better in the world to entertain and explain things to me quite like you do …thank you. … When I was 33 I had an unexpected yet amazing journey through San Francisco because my sister got sick when I went to visit her. I walked from the business district all the way to Golden Gate Bridge and it was just amazing. I think partially because I did it by myself kinda like your journey. Jacob I love everything that you do all of your videos. There’s no one that has ever been able to explain the world to me quite like you do. and I’m so thankful for that. I wish I could do more to help you, but I thank you for helping me.
