      Congrats! My fiancé and I were scheduled to stay at La Fortuna last week too! Something came up and had to reschedule for 3/26 + switch hotels :( . We're hiking Volcan Atitlan as well. Any other must hikes or trails along the lake you'd recommend?

    This video is absolutely your best yet. The music, the atmosphere, the scenery, the proposal… it’s all perfect.
    As a 13-year-married man, my best advice for you is to strengthen any weaknesses in your marriage early and it will lead to a long marriage.

    I am so happy for you Kraig! I’m glad you chose my country, Guatemala, of all the beautiful countries you’ve visited to commemorate this special moment! Lake Atitlan is such a beautiful and magical place. Cheers to you two!

    I think what makes Kraigs videos special is the delivery. He doesn't present his adventures in a way that invokes jealousy, or envy, like Instagram influencers do. Each of his videos are so beautifully directed as an abstract short film with a great narrative. And music choice is always on point *chefs kiss*

  • @estebanchavez922
    @estebanchavez922 2 роки тому +37

    What an honor for me, guatemalan, to have Kraig choose Guatemala over all other places he has visited in the past. You are always welcome to Guatemala Kraig!

    I only came across your channel today and immediately clicked on this video as soon as I saw that you came to my home country. I have been away since January and I always forget how much I miss it when I am not home. Thank you for doing it justice in this video.

    This was absolutely beautiful. How did I miss this upload. I am in total awe of your filming of every second of every video. I am loving this kind of format. Love the hiking too. Love it all. Mica is such a sweet, kind, and gentle soul. The two of you make such a loving and respectful couple. I am too old for love now (65), but I wish I had been blessed with someone who loved me like this. It's hard for me to find genuine friends to hang out with let along a man for this old woman at this point. Oh well. Just wishing. Congratulations and Best Wishes for a long and happy future together.

    Thank you so much for this video! I´m Colombian, but grew up on the lake Atitlan and that place has always felt like home to me. You captured the most incredible and amazing footage with your camera, and it made me cry just remembering that calm I feel when I´m there...
    What an amazing place to ask someone to marry you, and I love Guatemala so much... this is a vivid proof of the warmth and incredible things it has to offer.

I can’t wait to see what the future holds for you and your fiancé. Thanks for always taking us along for the ride. Much love - Edgar

    I've been subbed for a while, and this has got to be one of your best videos yet. Not only was the proposal beautiful (congrats by the way!!), but the stunning drone shots of the mountains, and the epic music accompanying it all really felt like I was watching an epic adventure movie. The ending sequence from 7:37 onward was especially perfect :)
