    Hey Stephen. I have been listening to you for probably 10 months and every night meaning to write something ! I cannot express how much I appreciate your work. Hope you can monetize this some how, you deserve the world for what you do for all of us ! Cheers

    I remember going to grandma's in Virginia where she would bake fresh bread in her log cabin at the foot of a huge mountain. We would pack a bag, an walk through the field to the pond, where our lawn chairs where, an have a camp fire an watch the shooting stars...those were some of the good Ole days. Maybe you could use that memory for a story😊

      I'm going to make one that says " what has been, has been ." On the back of the shirt 👕 and the front it will say " what will be, will be. " That way, my body will be in between both sayings and keep me in the present.

    I'm glad you were able to be in the moment and enjoy being there. You're right in the fact that no matter what life you have, there's always someone in this world who would trade places with you because you are living their dreams. Although I have lost half of my sight, there's some who is totally blind that would love to have half of their sight back. I love how you remind me to be thankful and enjoy little moments 💕. Thank you so much.

    Dear Stephen, I live in Brasov, Transylvania, (hope you remember me) and I am honoured that you also live temporarily in my country. Speaking about Sicily and your love of the sea, I hope you visited in Romania the Black Sea and Constantza, a beautiful harbour city with an eclectic - oriental atmosphere and a nice beach. Don't miss Constantza, but just in the summer. Thank you so much for all your stories, they help me every night to fall asleep. 😊 PS. You can read for inspiration some short stories from Constantza by PANAIT ISTRATI, a great romanian interwar writer.

      OK, The Danube Delta is a paradise, thanks for the reply, but you have to swim in the Black Sea, to enjoy the incredible architecture and atmosphere of Constantza and eat turkish food at the "Bosfor" restaurant (is verified 😊)

    I really enjoyed this sleep story, it was great to hear a little bit about your private life. Liked hearing about Timmy and what he does at the beach, and also liked hearing about Robbie too, may he rest gently in peace and love and cherished memories. I can relate, because my wife and I have two Goldens for our children and we wouldn't have it any other way. 👍

    I'm so grateful that you took us to the beach with your family! I tried not to sleep so I could keep listening! I loved to hear your detailed experiences while you were there. You described it all perfectly.
    I love the ocean, as you do. I miss it so very much. I live in Montana now, but grew up in CA. I remember one time after being gone for a few years, we took a trip back to San Diego, where I used to go to the beach often. I jumped out of the car and ran to the beach, stood on the sand looking out to the fast ocean then just laid down on the beach and cried as I listened to the waves coming in and out.
    Thank you for bringing us to the beach with you.💗

    Thank you so much for sharing these stories with us! I love the waves that you recorded, it really makes me feel connected to the story, and I hope you feel inspired to continue adding peaceful audio clips of your journeys! One thing that might help to make the sound more relaxing, though, could be to edit the sound so that your voice and the background waves don't take up the same pitch frequencies in the speaker. This will help the waves not complete as much with the spoken words on the track. This can be done with a FILTER CURVE EQ on audacity and can help the sound be even more relaxing 😌. I love what you do, and I am excited to fall asleep to more of your adventures!
