    You did a poll recently where you asked if people wanted more/less music in the videos. I'd say I like the musical scenes if the music is a "real song" with lyrics and such that perhaps you think fit the scene or are something you personally like in the scene. The generic elevator music not so much. Just my opinion. Thank you for letting us explore through you.

    That is my kind of island! Think it will be on my bucket list for sure! Gabriel I honestly don't care for the new modern music you have on the video, maybe if you had a local music for the country you visit like India, Italy and Greece...would be more fitting? I don't know., just not getting that vibe like your past vids. And I have followed you for years! It seems a bit overdone, sorry Gabriel my friend, you film such beautiful, peaceful places and so watching them in peace listening for the Island sounds of people, birds, ocean etc makes the videos so much more interesting and as if a person is actually right there with you! The world is too loud as it is and you really know how to make us escape it all! I know you would want to hear our opinions and would consider them on your own will. Thank you Gabriel! Safe travels on your next journey and thank you so much for taking us with you! Hugs and peace!
