    My 11 year old daughter and I just returned from Hopkins and it was awesome. We decided to go based off this video and it was life changing! Thank you

      Wow, I'm incredibly humbled to hear that you went to Hopkins after watching this video. That means the world to me! Hopkins was such a transformative experience for me as well. Truly life-changing!
      Go to Punta Gorda Honduras next if you haven't been. Also epic!

      I was so relieved when I did. I was told not to have super high hopes to get it back haha. Since, I got a much lighter drone that doesn't require clearance so lesson learned. I'm very happy to hear that my tips went to good use. Take care!!

    I'm glad Belize puts restrictions on drones. Nothing ruins a tranquil moment in a beautiful place like having a noisy drone hovering over you. That aside, I loved the video.

    Love me some Hopkins have special childhood summer memories there in the earliest of the 1990s. I came back in 2019 to bury my gran and had just brief moment here. Shoutout to my Grand-Auntie (My Grandpas sister) her name is Hazel Magdaleno Nunez who lives behind Queen Beans Restaurant. I met her for the first time, very sweet woman. She is 96 years young and just absolutely radiant and strong. I hope she is well, if anyone knows her give her my love and regards, from her Grand-Niece Cassie (Sandras daughter) 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵 wonderful video take care!!!

    What an excellent video. If everything goes the way it should, I'll be moving to Belize next year. Hopkins looks wonderful, and seeing you interact with the people just made my day. They seem so warm and peaceful. Honestly, it almost made me cry because of all the stress living in the States. Great stuff, brother.
