LOL I keep up with his activities on YT every 3-5 days. Right now hes taking some vacation days in Canada. He showed a picture of a sort of cabin/house/campsite in an outdoors middle-of-nowhere picture. I recommended he try out the freedom feeling, relaxing, invigorating activity of skinny dipping. I actually have some plans for my spring time road trip too...
