    Kraig, I want you and all the people who see this comment to know that, you've been and still a great inspiration for me. I am now currently able to live and work in Japan because of you, the reason, the sole reason that encourage me to come here was your Japan travel video. I remember laying there in my dark room alone no true life, no true purpose, but I was so mesmerized, so overwhelmed and eventually shed a tear watching that video, it made me realize this beautiful world that I missed staying there in my dark room and eventually encourage me to step up and back to earth. I've picked up myself a camera and I want to start making videos too, maybe not like Kraig Adams' style videos but I want to make something as inspirational as your work. Great job man!

Colombia is a wonderful place and it deserves to be more appreciated for its landscapes, the people, the food and not Pablo Escobar or some other annoying stereotype. You guys should all come visit! There's lots to see... this is one of our trademarks; very diverse and very breathtaking landscapes and places! Loved the video Kraig, you should come back and get to know other amazing places!

    I’m a solo hiker from NC going to school in Wisconsin. When I’m home, my hikes are-to put it plainly-boring. Theres always noise pollution and it’s hard to feel fully immersed. I ease my eagerness for my next trip with YT videos and few, if any, capture the peace of solitude quite like you do. I’m always searching for quiet. The type of quiet where you can’t hear a n y other humans-no cars, planes or noises. Thanks for all of your hard work, Kraig. I love how the music went matched the hustle and bustle of the village and the serenity of the wilderness. Your videos truly fill the void between adventures. It’s hard to do what you do and make it look so simple!
