      Whenever I feel down, your channel always brings a smile to my face. Thank you for all you do and all my best to you and your wonderful family. If you ever come back to the US I hope you consider visiting Iowa. August during the State Fair would be a fun time for you.

    Thinking about taking my mom on a trip to Europe in a few years, she really wants to see one of the lesser travelled places though. I'm obsessed with Estonia myself, so might drop in before I pull her into it. Might get a sister to make a list of places she'd like to see and maybe we'll make two or three stops and make a month out of it or something. I would love to travel with my mom and sister, they are my absolute heroes.
