My dear Eva, I’m a pretty experienced older male traveler of 50 and watching this video and your amazing enthusiasm for life and adventure made me so emotional and cry. I wish you the happiest and safest of adventures to come! You are such an inspiration and I’m so happy that you’ve found love as well! Traveling with a great friend is priceless! Ciao! Adam B. from USA
An easy way go get out when the car is stuck in sand is to use the method of perforator, to gas in short impulses. So, don't gas too long in one place, until the wheel digs a deep hall.
hmmm...who was it that got the jeep stuck again? Just kidding. Those "mishaps" seem to have lead to a great experience overall. Be safe and continue having fun on your adventures.
Let us see your driving skillz in your next adventure..and we will be able to answer your question after your next video..wishing you both lot of happiness and great experiences..and thanks to eva for inspiring my family to travel as well..
Tip; Scrambled eggs .. crack into a bowl before the pan & whisk with a fork if you get any shells in the eggs you can take them out before transferring to skillet
I moved into the city from the country, didn't like the fast lane. Moved back to the country after about four years to my real way of life! Living country, the slow and better life! Thank-you!
remember eva, when you are enjoying your coffee and you are doing other work with your laptop. MAKE SURE that your coffee and laptop are at least 4 meters apart
I was sad you turned southish when you did. I lived for a year and a quarter in Samsun and enjoyed the view of the Black Sea and the wonderful hospitality of the Turkish people I met while I was there. This was a very nice video. Thank you.
Thank you for your honesty in telling exactly how you feel, rather than showing only the pros of countries. I too don't like cities. I bought a land in a village where I live a peaceful life. I almost see no one, just nature surrounds me. Living in a city seems like a nightmare for me.
When you get stuck in mud, sand, you can use the orange things on the right side of your def. They are called Maxtrax, you put it right behind or in front of your wheel and they will get you out of trouble.
So happy to see the two of you more candid and relaxed now as a couple. The kiss from Mike at the tail end of the video was very heartwarming 💝 Mad respect too for being such professionals by letting one another do your own thing.
Hopefully you got the chance to explore Cappadocia properly, well beyond Goreme. There's so much to see there it's insane. You can spend weeks, months discovering new, unique, weird places, most of it with very few tourists or even none at all. Most fascinating place in the world, that I've been to anyway. If I could step back in time somewhere, that's definitely where I would love to see what life was really like hundreds or thousands of years ago.
Pitch pine is also known as fatwood. It occurs when a pine tree dies standing up and the sap flows to the bottom of the tree, saturating the wood there. It can also occur in the shoulder of dead pine branches for the same reason. It can be easily bought on Amazon and other fine realtors.
One can easily filosofize as much as one wants in a free state of float flux but when one really lives is a solid interaction, integration in a stable functioning community. The challenges are far more internal in order to relate externally. As a former go anywhere try anything in the 60s-80s I discoverd that being found and rooting is true growth.
Google Maps did the same thing to me and about 50 other cars and took us off of a freeway to avoid a small traffic accident. It put us on a service road about 100 feet away - but it immediately turned into a very rocky dirt road that was essentially a dried creek bed turned road. Ruined my front bumper from a big dip- dislodged it a bit out of place - scratched it up - and will cost over a thousand dollars to fix. And tons of cars got completely stuck. It was crazy.
That morning sky dotted with hot air balloons was just amazing, that's the treasure you gather when you are wandering, feels that Truck listens to you, gets you out from most troubles.🕊️
I agree as does my wife, we are both from the country side. I from Michigan and her from Vermont. And yes her parents make Maple syrup. Hope the repairs continue to progress. And about the world it is yours and Mike's.
In one of her recent Q&As, I think she said no kids and she's agnistic. Sad, but I got your comment immediately. Stay safe to you and yours from your eternal sister in Christ somewhere near Seattle. I sub to a few Christian channels, Chuck Swindol, Dave Ramsey, The Gaithers, Dr. Tony Evans and his son, The Chosen, etc. Look me up on the other side, ok? ⚘🙏❤🙏⚘
If i remember she started out by doing that job...Insulation panels. The answers to double skin the tent with a thermally reflective tarp cover. ..or get 4season sleeping bags or sling most of the gear in the tent and sleep inside the Landy👍🏻 remember you loose more heat to whatever your lying on unless youve an insulating layer under your sleeping bag. 😉 Eva You had best check where that oils leaking from before it gets worse, meantime carry spare water and the right grade of oil. If your very lucky it might just be the oil filter seal has compressed a bit or vibrated loose and needs a tightening tweak to stop the leak. Or it could get very expensive..🌌 Im more familiar Rumi .🏞️
was that a kiss on the last part of this video,?whaaaaaaa im happy for u eva and mike.thats why eva said change is not bad its scary but we need it...whaa im really happy for u eva😘
I actually repeat the scene. She used to travel alone. When she said, it's fun to have companion when travelling. It's true that everyone need someone along.
kind of agree with the quote, but some of us have lived such involuntarily chaotic and traumatic lives that comfort is a saviour, to each their own is all im saying
Re getting not stuck/unstuck, drop the tyre pressures to about 15psi/1 bar, engauge low range and diff lock, rock if neccessary, but mostly you'll jsut drive out. tyre pressures are important as it lengthens the tread on the ground and gives a lot more traction. If you spin any wheel, stop especially if you feel the vehicle dropping into the sand/mud. If you have to you can drop tyres to 10psi, but remember not to turn fast. Repressure before highway driving. Also, get some off road driving tuition! That might save your life or the Landy! I'm not joking here, get a training course!
Loved this!! Sometimes I feel like the universe has a way of talking to you and I feel like you talking about change is so reassuring after I made a one of the biggest decisions! Thanks Eva! 😁
You're probably going to hear this a lot in the comments, but when driving on sand, lower your tyre pressure. Depending on how soft the sand is, you can put them down quite low. Just remember to put them back up when you hit bitumen again.
Based on all I've seen (been watching for about a year) I doubt she has a tire inflator in her car to get back on the road - don't forget she has added hundreds or more pounds on that vehicle with her belongings. The more I watch her videos the more I feel like she's just winging it. Now she has an oil leak in her car which could end very badly considering how far she drives across Europe and the Middle East. We'll see where the adventures take us and I hope for her safety.
It is fun getting stuck however you got out. I have watched a lot of TH-cam channels with good advice for getting unstuck. The easiest approach in your situation would be to let some air out of your tires , then inflate them before you get back on normal roads
to travel the world before we got old or before we die, that is one of the most fulfilling experience one can ever have, that is why want to have financial freedom, not for the material things, but to travel and experience other countries and cultures!
crack raw eggs on the edge of a narrow something or other, like the brim of a cup. I usually use several eggs at once, so I usually just crack many eggs into a coffee cup. If you try to start the crack on a rounded surface, the fractures will be unpredictable. there is a lining in the inside of the egg that sort of helps to hold the little broken pieces together, so don't be shy. BREAK that egg on the sharp edge of a cup, and then it will open easily, and predictably, and the egg will come out, usually intact, and on target. Give it a shot. You cook fine, but your egg cracking needs work
That quote definitely resonates. I adore you breaking an egg on a flat surface and embracing the clumsiness of life (physics suggests you use a sharper edge to break a roundish surface). It happens and it makes better memories! Those balloons, ... such a wonderful result of a change of plans!
Fire starting you can use pitch pine ..pine resin.. Birch bark or Cherry bark ... Or cut up small strips of an old bicycle inner tube... They will all burn even if its wet. Gorse is also highly flammable ..so much so its burning was prohibited within the city of London in Medieval times and it may have been burning gorse that started the great fire of London.
All vehicles get stuck, tractors with huge wheels get stuck in muddy fields so a 4x4 with compromise tyres (on-road/off-road) won't get that far if the surface is really soft. Some people fit winches but that adds a lot of weight. First thing you need to carry is a good shovel and a few strips of old carpet you can put under the tyres to help them get some grip. Failing that, cut some brushwood and put that under the tyres. Failing that you'll need a tow. Make sure you're carrying a longish, strong rope - it makes begging a tow much easier! Great film, nice to see you with some company. Oh, and there's enough room in the back if you sleep on top of each other. What? Just trying to be helpful..😉.
Inspiring Eva. This life on the road suits you so well, your smile says it all! I so feel we’re on the same page. Can’t wait to meet you and Odyssey anytime soon. In some remote places… Regarding living in the city…there’s a French song saying ‘humans are surrounded by walls, are they scared of the natural world?’ I believe so- we’re scared of the unknown…it’s maybe time to give nature a chance and to live in harmony with it, as much as we can. Anyway, you have all my respect 💙
Wow, that part of the song that you just shared and your words resonated deeply with me. It is my dream to live a more close to nature life. This inspires me!
Thank you so much! Cappadokia is one of the most beautiful places where I have ever been! I was there twice and I am going again, because there are so many unexplored amazing places in this hospitable country!!!❤️❤️❤️
I was watching an old Eva's video when suddenly a new one appeared. Love your videos...not only because you have an original content but also because you're what I call INSPIRATION. I'm glad to "know" you Eva. Virtually, at least!! 😉🤗
The Diff lock is for use while going forward or back but not while turning. Why not consider adding some Recovery equipment to your inventory guy, ie the most basic being a shovel / spade.
@@MrRusty7911 Isn't that a waffle board I see at 14:26? Couple of them and a shovel and as you say and you can get a landy in low range out of almost anything
@@MrRusty7911 you can use diff lock while turning, but only at a walking pace and if the road surface you are on isn't firm (like a paved road or a hard packed surface). But on mud, sand, snow and loose gravel, you'll be fine.
😂 Lol ‘I didn’t think this could get stuck’. Of course it can and will, if you do proper 4WDing. That’s what the MaxTrax are for (orange bumpy boards on the side of your car). When stuck you put them under the wheels and use them to drive out. Lots of TH-cam videos on how to use them. Great video, loved those balloons
So getting into recovery now. Welcome to offroad driving. Very few offroad vehicles go everywhere. Yours doesn't seem to have diff locks, so in effect you are only in 2 wheel driver. 1 at the front and 1 at the back. Mud, extremely wet tracks and sand at times may not your friend. Time to by a shovel :). Also, as mentioned below, letting your tyres down gives you a bigger foot print and helps in sand and rocks, but can also help in mud a little. Also it gives you a smoother ride off road. You just have to reduce you top speed when they are down. If you let your tyres down you have to have something to pump them back up again. Anyway, loving the story of your journey. Keep safe.
Just a tip from a chef, always crack eggs on flat surface, if you crack them on an edge, like everyone does, you shoot tiny pieces of shell into the yolk. From what we saw, Eva likes shell in her scramble eggs so maybe I should mind my business. Lol
Wow you two! I didn't want this video to end! Great work. I started watching Mikes fearless and far channel which i plan to binge watch tonight. Really great channels. I love both of you! And Eva, I'm one of those who crave to get out of the unappetising bustling viewless city to remote mountainous areas.
You made me quite nostalgic when you brought that block of maple sugar, Eva. As a kid in Eastern Canada in the 1950's that was our go to candy treat. Enjoy every bite!
The artistry of those buildings is amazing in that city. I could spend a month taking pictures and a painter could spend years capturing its beauty of being real. That morning with the hot air balloons. OMG.
Its beautiful but like Sanfransisco its a city that sits on or next to a major geological fault. That feeds into the Mediterranean belt of fire ... Siesmicaly and volcanic active. The fault actually passes under the sea of the Bospherus. New building s should withstand a shake but not the old ones.
Hi Eva, love love love your videos, it's like me travelling with you 💕 💖. I got an advise/idea on the cooler block, you can actually use a mineral bottle, fill it up with drinking water, freeze it and use it as cooler block. At the end when it melted, just drink it, no waste of space and you can reuse the bottle too. A trick I used during camping. 🥰
Yes Eva, the basics of life basically come down to "What will I eat, and where will I leave it?" Comfort can become the greatest of luxuries, even in foreign lands!!
You're my eyes and ears in that part of the world Eva and I'm loving being a passenger. Mike takes up a lot of room though, doesn't he?😆 Wondering if you are aware of the low ratio gearbox in Oddessy that should get you out of most sticky spots. Tyre pressure is something to research too for situations like that. Be safe - love you!💕🇳🇿
The vibe of your vlog, Eva, feels so different with Mike around. I can feel you really love having him around and that he is much more than just your traveling buddy. He's a lucky man to have you. Best wishes on your mutual adventures.
@@SerendipityTravels Well, he is her beau. She made no bones about it in a recent video. I believe that she is actually happy being able to rekindle a romantic relationship. In her "past life" it would appear she was actually married but parted ways (no further details beyond that). Let's just wish her the happiness she yearns for.
Hello Eva, glad to see you joy and happiness what wonderfull spots here :P Two advices anyway: - Again advice you install lockable hubs on front wheels, it reduce efforts on motor and gearbox when drive 4x2 - When going on sandy spot, reduce you air pressure it will bu so much easier
Can the 2 of you stop being soooo cute ?!?!?! 😬🥰😬🥰💕💕💕 Thank you for sharing a small part of your personal life with us ! This place was absolutely amazing and romantic with all the hot air balloons !! Have a wonderful day !!! 💕💕💕
When i saw your videos and during that time I was quarantined positive with covid I think that its so much awesome to be a travel vlogger.Hope that you can inspired me more.I'm aspiring and hoping to be a travel vlogger❤️
Hi Eva. Baking soda box (slip it in a ziploc bag) but leave the top open on both. Will remove cooler odours. Hi Mike! Cheers from Toronto 🇨🇦. Maple butter… yum
It's almost two years since I first watched your video on SYRIA, for my school project. I was in awe of how eloquently you spoke, it was so pleasing to hear you, i was fond of how you respected other cultures and religions, your thought expressed my views then accidentally guess I am in awe of you. I AM SO GLAD THAT I FOUND THIS BADASS CHANNEL!I have been following this journey ever since and I feel I am a part of the soothing journey too. Keep Going Girl.#theworldbelongstothebrave"The world belongs to the brave." There's no doubt you are

Whenever you are driving in sand your suppose to lower the psi of your tires like around to 25 psi so it can grip to the soft sand. Read about it so you can get a better understanding.
This was great seeing you two together and the scenery and adventure and I love that quote from the Lebanese guy! Comfort, when you think about it, isn't too comforting or comfortable after all if it's going to slowly kill you and deprive you. It seems counterintuitive but adventure and excitement and passion is more of a comfort. Just sitting around? That's more wasting away and being slothful and a bit lazy and dispassionate.
My dear Eva, I’m a pretty experienced older male traveler of 50 and watching this video and your amazing enthusiasm for life and adventure made me so emotional and cry. I wish you the happiest and safest of adventures to come! You are such an inspiration and I’m so happy that you’ve found love as well! Traveling with a great friend is priceless! Ciao!

Man wish she would respond. I could tell you put you meant your comment
An easy way go get out when the car is stuck in sand is to use the method of perforator, to gas in short impulses. So, don't gas too long in one place, until the wheel digs a deep hall.
So what do you dudes and dudettes think about my driving skillz. Should Eva let me behind the wheel more often? 😜💪🏻
hmmm...who was it that got the jeep stuck again? Just kidding. Those "mishaps" seem to have lead to a great experience overall. Be safe and continue having fun on your adventures.
I think Eva reather drives oddessee herself ;-)
If you guys don't get that oil leak diagnosed and fixed soon there won't be any driving. I hope the vehicle is repaired soon.
Let us see your driving skillz in your next adventure..and we will be able to answer your question after your next video..wishing you both lot of happiness and great experiences..and thanks to eva for inspiring my family to travel as well..
Yes.. every smart girl needs an American behind her wheel! .. carry on!

remember eva, when you are enjoying your coffee and you are doing other work with your laptop. MAKE SURE that your coffee and laptop are at least 4 meters apart
Hahahaha right
And not just vertically!
And always backup
just keep the coffee below the computer. (this does not work in a weightless environment.)
I was sad you turned southish when you did. I lived for a year and a quarter in Samsun and enjoyed the view of the Black Sea and the wonderful hospitality of the Turkish people I met while I was there. This was a very nice video. Thank you.
Thank you for your honesty in telling exactly how you feel, rather than showing only the pros of countries. I too don't like cities. I bought a land in a village where I live a peaceful life. I almost see no one, just nature surrounds me. Living in a city seems like a nightmare for me.
When you get stuck in mud, sand, you can use the orange things on the right side of your def. They are called Maxtrax, you put it right behind or in front of your wheel and they will get you out of trouble.
That’s why I have them and I know what they’re called since I got them 😂
So happy to see the two of you more candid and relaxed now as a couple. The kiss from Mike at the tail end of the video was very heartwarming 💝 Mad respect too for being such professionals by letting one another do your own thing.
Hi Eva . Galata bridge is actually connecting you from Europe to Europe :) Try the big Bridge named(Bogazici) to cross from Europe to Asia
you should write a book. I really admire your words of wisdom
Thank you Eva for another wonderful life mantra and poet to read!!

Inspiring Eva. This life on the road suits you so well, your smile says it all! I so feel we’re on the same page. Can’t wait to meet you and Odyssey anytime soon. In some remote places… Regarding living in the city…there’s a French song saying ‘humans are surrounded by walls, are they scared of the natural world?’ I believe so- we’re scared of the unknown…it’s maybe time to give nature a chance and to live in harmony with it, as much as we can. Anyway, you have all my respect 💙
Wow, that part of the song that you just shared and your words resonated deeply with me. It is my dream to live a more close to nature life. This inspires me!
If you live in the mountains they can't put you in a covid concentration camp. So🤔
Very nice video, greetings from your fan in Argentina!!
Hahaha, “Scrambles eggs. The only thing I know how to make really well.” *proceeds to throw yolk everywhere. Hehe. Made me laugh.
Thank you so much! Cappadokia is one of the most beautiful places where I have ever been! I was there twice and I am going again, because there are so many unexplored amazing places in this hospitable country!!!❤️❤️❤️
I was watching an old Eva's video when suddenly a new one appeared. Love your videos...not only because you have an original content but also because you're what I call INSPIRATION. I'm glad to "know" you Eva. Virtually, at least!! 😉🤗
Some places are touristy for a good reason! That place looks incredible.
Next time you are stuck - lock your centre differential and put it in low range. It will literally crawl itself out.
Lower tyre pressure for wet sand too!
The Diff lock is for use while going forward or back but not while turning. Why not consider adding some Recovery equipment to your inventory guy, ie the most basic being a shovel / spade.
@@MrRusty7911 Isn't that a waffle board I see at 14:26? Couple of them and a shovel and as you say and you can get a landy in low range out of almost anything
@@MrRusty7911 She has a nice set of Maxtraxs. Maybe the stress made her forget, or they weren't stuck long enough for it to really matter.
@@MrRusty7911 you can use diff lock while turning, but only at a walking pace and if the road surface you are on isn't firm (like a paved road or a hard packed surface). But on mud, sand, snow and loose gravel, you'll be fine.
😂 Lol ‘I didn’t think this could get stuck’. Of course it can and will, if you do proper 4WDing. That’s what the MaxTrax are for (orange bumpy boards on the side of your car). When stuck you put them under the wheels and use them to drive out. Lots of TH-cam videos on how to use them. Great video, loved those balloons
I always love it when you two are together in one vlog. More please! 🥰
So getting into recovery now.
Welcome to offroad driving. Very few offroad vehicles go everywhere.
Yours doesn't seem to have diff locks, so in effect you are only in 2 wheel driver. 1 at the front and 1 at the back. Mud, extremely wet tracks and sand at times may not your friend. Time to by a shovel :).
Also, as mentioned below, letting your tyres down gives you a bigger foot print and helps in sand and rocks, but can also help in mud a little. Also it gives you a smoother ride off road. You just have to reduce you top speed when they are down. If you let your tyres down you have to have something to pump them back up again.
Anyway, loving the story of your journey. Keep safe.
Just a tip from a chef, always crack eggs on flat surface, if you crack them on an edge, like everyone does, you shoot tiny pieces of shell into the yolk. From what we saw, Eva likes shell in her scramble eggs so maybe I should mind my business. Lol
when i saw that morning view with the ballons, my heart just went as if I was already there. SO serene!
Wow you two! I didn't want this video to end! Great work. I started watching Mikes fearless and far channel which i plan to binge watch tonight. Really great channels. I love both of you!
And Eva, I'm one of those who crave to get out of the unappetising bustling viewless city to remote mountainous areas.
Wow! Can't hide my happiness whnvr I c u travel with somebody. Gladdens my hrt cuz I knw u safe Eva. The vid was awesome. Love u so much
You made me quite nostalgic when you brought that block of maple sugar, Eva. As a kid in Eastern Canada in the 1950's that was our go to candy treat. Enjoy every bite!
Ditto. As an expat I still love male sugar, maple butter etc!
The artistry of those buildings is amazing in that city. I could spend a month taking pictures and a painter could spend years capturing its beauty of being real.
That morning with the hot air balloons. OMG.
Its beautiful but like Sanfransisco its a city that sits on or next to a major geological fault. That feeds into the Mediterranean belt of fire ... Siesmicaly and volcanic active.
The fault actually passes under the sea of the Bospherus.
New building s should withstand a shake but not the old ones.
Hi Eva, love love love your videos, it's like me travelling with you 💕 💖. I got an advise/idea on the cooler block, you can actually use a mineral bottle, fill it up with drinking water, freeze it and use it as cooler block. At the end when it melted, just drink it, no waste of space and you can reuse the bottle too. A trick I used during camping. 🥰
Yes Eva, the basics of life basically come down to "What will I eat, and where will I leave it?" Comfort can become the greatest of luxuries, even in foreign lands!!
You're my eyes and ears in that part of the world Eva and I'm loving being a passenger. Mike takes up a lot of room though, doesn't he?😆 Wondering if you are aware of the low ratio gearbox in Oddessy that should get you out of most sticky spots. Tyre pressure is something to research too for situations like that.
Be safe - love you!💕🇳🇿
And don’t forget you also have those red traction boards / sand ladders strapped to the side of your roof rack if you get stuck!!
Yes, Cappadocia is a wonderful experience not to be missed.
The vibe of your vlog, Eva, feels so different with Mike around. I can feel you really love having him around and that he is much more than just your traveling buddy. He's a lucky man to have you. Best wishes on your mutual adventures.
Yes, vibe is a bit off tbh. Not digging him dont know why. He seems to be sarcastic and she is putting more into it than him. Just my hunch.
@@SerendipityTravels Well, he is her beau. She made no bones about it in a recent video. I believe that she is actually happy being able to rekindle a romantic relationship. In her "past life" it would appear she was actually married but parted ways (no further details beyond that). Let's just wish her the happiness she yearns for.
Hello Eva, glad to see you joy and happiness what wonderfull spots here :P
Two advices anyway:
- Again advice you install lockable hubs on front wheels, it reduce efforts on motor and gearbox when drive 4x2
- When going on sandy spot, reduce you air pressure it will bu so much easier
Can the 2 of you stop being soooo cute ?!?!?! 😬🥰😬🥰💕💕💕 Thank you for sharing a small part of your personal life with us ! This place was absolutely amazing and romantic with all the hot air balloons !! Have a wonderful day !!! 💕💕💕
Are they couple.? Or in relationship. ?
@@ZionWorship-so2of They are dating for the past year 😍
I love it when you have company. I have less anxiety for you. Lol you’re such a badass!
When i saw your videos and during that time I was quarantined positive with covid I think that its so much awesome to be a travel vlogger.Hope that you can inspired me more.I'm aspiring and hoping to be a travel vlogger❤️
Hi Eva. Baking soda box (slip it in a ziploc bag) but leave the top open on both. Will remove cooler odours. Hi Mike! Cheers from Toronto 🇨🇦. Maple butter… yum
It's almost two years since I first watched your video on SYRIA, for my school project. I was in awe of how eloquently you spoke, it was so pleasing to hear you, i was fond of how you respected other cultures and religions, your thought expressed my views then accidentally guess I am in awe of you. I AM SO GLAD THAT I FOUND THIS BADASS CHANNEL!I have been following this journey ever since and I feel I am a part of the soothing journey too. Keep Going Girl.#theworldbelongstothebrave"The world belongs to the brave." There's no doubt you are
Warto byłoby założyć siatkę sznurkową lub umieścić tak bagaże aby się przynajmniej nie przemieszczały w terenie, można też zamontować kratę stalową oddzielającą przedział ładunkowy są również specjalne pasy i linki gumowe z haczykami. Co Szanownej Pani by najlepiej służyło do "wyboru do koloru".
So happy to see you and Mike together on this adventure, you make a great couple.
Whenever you are driving in sand your suppose to lower the psi of your tires like around to 25 psi so it can grip to the soft sand. Read about it so you can get a better understanding.
This was great seeing you two together and the scenery and adventure and I love that quote from the Lebanese guy! Comfort, when you think about it, isn't too comforting or comfortable after all if it's going to slowly kill you and deprive you. It seems counterintuitive but adventure and excitement and passion is more of a comfort. Just sitting around? That's more wasting away and being slothful and a bit lazy and dispassionate.
What a Captivating capture!✔️✔️✔️✔️
Such a super magnificent capture this one is,many congrats and thanks for sharing!!
