    This was my first time visiting the USA in 5 years.
    It was great to be back home and see many family / friends as well as do some winter cycling in the snow.
    I do have some bad news announced at the end of the video though.
    Thank you to our clothing sponsor Santic for sending me some winter cycling gear to use in this colder weather.

    Very sorry to hear about the death of your sister, but happy you made the trip and were able to see her before she died.
    One of the things that’s remarkable about you is your positive attitude about all things in life. It really radiates in your videos, whether it’s the pouring rain during a ride, the noisy motorbikes in Vietnam, or the loss of a family member, your outlook is always positive and is an example for all of us.
    You and Thuong are a joy to watch.

    What a high quality young man you are, most evident in the way you delivered the news near the end of this video. So glad you were able to see your ailing sister before she passed away. Of course, we are very sorry for your loss. And, yes, just riding around the way you did in the cold weather with your signature narration added a lot your viewers could relate to -- the snow, family ties, memories, old friends, a taste of Americana, especially suburban life in the mid-west -- and then plans for the future. Thanks for taking us along and opening up this transitional phase of your life to your supporters.

    I relate so much to what you said.
    I'm an American too, a bit older than you, but I did several years overseas in India, Nepal, then gallivanted around SEA.
    I remember doing three years teaching IT in rural Nepal, then my first trip home I just stood in the cereal aisle in a big grocery store and had a mild existential crisis lol. Going back home feels nostalgic yet foreign at the same time, it's weird. You never get over it, either.
    I'm really sorry for your loss bro. ❤
