    Not sure how much John can vlog and tell about aviation but that could be an awesome angle for the channel. Two of the most amazing traveling mode in life is flying and on a ship, so if we could get a little glimpse behind the myserious world of piloting an aircraft that would be also cool. Maybe just for me 🤷‍♂️ but I don't drive but have 2 bucket list license items: PPL (Private Pilot License) for flying non-commercially and PER (Patrón de Embarcaciones de Recreo) to captain boats up to 15m in length in Spain 😀

      Hey there Daniel!!!!! Oh my gosh - THANK YOU for this question 🙂 As we film our next season here in Europe, I am vlogging and waiting at a train station with John as we speak, and I have made a shout out - and captured this question and have asked John about flying and his qualifications and how hard it is to keep his certification and recency! So keep a look out over the next couple of months!!!! 🙂

It's about the size of a larger cellphone and comes in handy alot. Cost about $50. Enjoy your episodes.
