    I love your canoeing videos! They inspired me to take my old canoe out of the garage and go on a river last week, and it basically transported me back to my teens when I used to go up and down the river every weekend of every summer. Today I did a short course with a portage from the Odra river into a small lake and back. Thank you Xander!

    This adventure just makes me smile! You guys look so happy just having fun together testing your skills, cooling off in the water, and just enjoying time with your brother... on both sides. The hammock looks like it would do better in warmer weather than a tent. Mainly that you’re off the ground and don’t have to deal with rocks, sticks, creepy crawly things. 😂. Ready for another one!

    I did enjoy that as much as you and Max did. This is one of your better videos by far in my opinion for 2 Reasons other than just the trip/scenery/and the adventure.
    Reason 1.....I admire/envy the relationship you have with your your brother Max. What a great feeling knowing someone has your back at all times ...Thats priceless. I mention that because my brother and I don't even talk and he does not have my back. Sorry I'm getting all emotional.
    Reason 2.... This is really none of my business , you do you and whatever it takes to have success on UA-cam , But I love the fact you were not trying to sell anything , just like when you started. You seem happier and more grounded like Max.
    Anyway love your Videos and keep them coming. 🇨🇦🇨🇦 I would love to see you and Max come out here to Western Canada and do some paddling on some Mountain Rivers. I know I love them with towering mountains all around.

    Loved this one, Xander. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I'm 35, doing that corporate life, and I wish I could escape out to places like these. Every time I see you kick back and just take in the scenery it reminds me of this verse in Luke 5:16, "But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed." I'm pretty sure he was on to something 😉 Gorgeous lands.
    Take care and be safe, mate. Thanks again for all that you do!

    Hi Zander. Great Video. Try putting thigh straps in your boat to stop you sliding around. It's easy to do and gives you much better control of your boat.

Amazing to watch.
