      It can be carried in an easy and light way bro! Why not let it float in the sea water using floats. By carrying it on shoulder, it can damage their lumbar disc in the long run. Do it in a better way bro!

    These guys are so full of positivity and goodness in their hearts that they don't easily get tired what so ever, after a herculean day at work they still visit their neighbors and friends, drink and have a good time then return home to their wives and children with a happy smile on their face and no sign of weariness at all . . . I hope the government would realize how lucky it is to have such citizens in its country . . .If they are educated and provided some form of governmental aid, they have the potential to push the economy of their country to great heights.

    I used to travel to Isla Mujeres in the mid 90"s you should have taken the local bus up to the Noth end where a lot of the locals lived. I used to go with the fishermen to a protected bird sanctuary on an small island about 5 miles from Isla Mujeres that had about 8 shacks licensed by Mexican govt one for each captian. We would stay there a few days as long as the ice we had catching fish and lobsters. It was a racket though as it didn't matter how much they caught as the owners of the fishery and gas stations would rais or lower prices arbitrarily never alowing the fishermen to really get ahead. Nicest people ever as long as you are willing to chip in and do as the locals do.

    So, respect for the hard working people but one reason you can play your console games is because there were so many improvements and inventions that made life easier in Europe. Renaissance and all that. For example, watching them carrying the wood I was wondering why they didn't transport it by water. And then they could do many logs at a time.

    Dude.. you are doing a great thing for your personal growth traveling and especially mixing up with so many people.
    But part of your personal growth is also discovering that when it comes to people there rarely is a "one size fits all" solution... What I mean to say is that some people were born to travel , other to do other things... Everybody has his or her own path to follow...
    If I can give you a little advice I would try to conjugate to your travel and meeting people as much language learning as you can. You definitely have a gift for languages and did a great job with Spanish... if I were you I would try to perfect my English, and maybe spend as much time as possibile in Asian Countries to learn Mandarin and Japanese, or Russian...
    I would do it for two reasons:
    1) it s great insurance that when you get tired of traveling you can easily find an activity, a job that fascinates you.
    2) being clearly a social animal speaking Chinese, Japanese and Russian will open the door for you to meet in a very direct and sincere way a huge part of humanity that is now only available to you "in translation"

      He just thnnks he is special, because he travels alternatively and on a low-budget, when in reality most people in their 20s do that too. However, those who stay in **** hotels and take private transportation, eat at restaurants and etc are the ones who contribute to the local businesses the most. And I say it from personal experience as someone who travels like Tmmy, knowing how low on expenses I try to be, so I can visit more places. Nothing special in it, we just dont record it.

Anyway, I wasn't necessarily attacking you for you to go in defense mode, since I actually enjoy watching the videos. Also, me, "the spoiled youngster", is 32 and it wasn't until recently that I had also saved enough to afford a bit of low-budget traveling, as someone who is from Bulgaria. I know for a fact I don't contribute to the locals as much as as someone who likes to splurge on trips, which was my whole point.
