    Going back in time to this video, I can see you did follow your curiosity to travel.
    Hoping you're doing well and didn't abandon your videography passion for good as there hasn't been any uploads in the last 2 years.
    I got lots of inspiration from you to get out there and film stuff I hope to see you back on the trails soon!

    I am literally bingewatching your videos after discovering your channel today...I think you made the right decision. Your passion for photo and videography will probably relive in your own videos tho...Great work and love watching them. But I agree, as soon as you do it for someone else, it feels like its not your own creation anymore maybe.

    A brave decision. It is good that you made your decision before your body becomes seriously ill. Many others decide after they have become ill. Being happy is worth more than being rich. And don't forget, with your excellent videos and hints (your Peanutbutter idea is genious, we will take it from now on!) you make many other people happy too - like us. :D Good luck!

      Thought it was a great little walk! Plenty of trails leading off everything so its quite easy to carve out your own path which I enjoyed. Kokoda is definitely on the bucket list. With the brief research I've done though I'm not sure whether it's possible to do it solo?
