    No awkward, stammering self-congratulation or self-promotion. No over-compensating, and no bullshit music. Rather, Erik offers simple inspiration and he teaches subtly and quietly through minimalist example.

      @Kelp Farming we are in the last days. Bible prophecy is comming to pass wether you like it or not. be true with yourself, and see if this verse confronts you :
      3 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
      2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
      3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
      4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
      5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

      geo Try vegetable broth fasting. 1 week, nothing but pure vegetable broth. No solid food, no sugar, no coffee or tea. After one week eat salad, salmon, and water only once a day for 3 weeks. Many of your health issues will disappear.

    Other than the sound of my daughter in my arms just after being born, I don't think there's a sound as beautiful and wondrous as that of rain hitting the top of my tarp. I sleep so well during a rain or snow storm. I love that you do not drown out (no pun intended) the sounds of nature with music or other sound effects. It's annoying watching a video and music destroys the ambiance that only nature provides. Thank you, Erik, for your great productions.

    Rainy day hikes in the forest are the best. Bringing a tarp along is a great idea, as it gives you a temporary shelter to take breaks under. In my experience the only down side is cleaning up and drying off all of your gear when you get home.
