Well first off, why not?
It’ sunny they have kangaroos, koalas and all sorts of cool shit there. Ok so the real reason then…
I recently went on a trip around the world (booking coming soon) and was fortunate to spend 30 + days in the AU. What I found was that it was an environment that excited me. I was born in Los Angeles, raised in Los Angeles and surrounding desserts. Recently, on a trip through 35 states of the USA I have come to the conclusion that I have been stuck in Los Angeles.
The monotony of life has caught up with me and I feel that a change is needed.
GR 1. My first 90 or so videos I lived in a basement apartment in Portland, Oregon. I was going out everynight doing the stand up mic thing, tring out lots of different jokes on live people. Most of my first videos were jokes that I adapted to vlog form. I had 30 videos and 25 subscribers but it didn’t matter cause I was excited about the work.
GR2. I moved around a bit and landed back in LA with family friends, Because Malibu is far as shit from everything I couldn’t get out and try new shit. I slipped into a internet consumed world with flashes of beach going and tennis and other distractions I call a well rounded life. I visited family in NY and had a great summer bringing you guy’s along with me, then came the “round the world trip” and two months of silence. When I got back I needed to get money and such a Job. Enter several videos about resumes and getting a job. Then having a job I decided I hated work, enter “how to quite your job. Eventually I paid off the credit cards and worked my way out of needing in job.
The Ford thing happened and I took the opportunity to quite I. I thus had to also try to start making money at the hobby. In doing this I lost the reason I love the GR to begin with. The diary failed, lots of things failed. The work became a slow decline of my ranking from 60th most subscribed to 75th. The frustration killed the creative, so I stopped caring. So enter shows about not caring about numbers and non-new year resolutions. I started liking the work again, but I need people. I need a city to feed energy off of. The space I was working in, the people, the bridges I burn with awkward glances, I just feel that I need to get out of the country out of all that I know, and feel comfortable with, the vacuous space in LA.
I need a change, a city, a different voice talking to me.
GR3. Sydney, Australia. I know that whatever demons I have inside me will follow me where every I go. I have also learned that sometimes the battle field we choose can have an advantage on the demons we can overcome. It might take me a minute to get settled but I think Australia will replenish the soul I feel I’ve lost in creative stagnation. It will force me to meet new people, to be uncomfortable, to have new experiences. And best of all to share them with you guys.
So why Australia…? Why not?

Thank you for sharing this with us and may you have a safe and wonderful trip and stay in AU.
Please keep in touch.
why don’t you move to Serbia? it’s even more exotic : )
Finally making the big move danny! Us aussies will give you a warm warm welcome when you arrive. best place to live, you will enjoy it heaps! cant wait to get see some gradual report videos in my home! going to be good to relate, see you do some of your crazy stuff on Bondi Beach!
Just one thing – I didn’t care much about your channel before, but now I absolutely respect you, as a person, for doing what you really want to do, being that type of person myself. :hat off:
I’d say you’ve already regained some of that creativity, good luck in Australia!!!!!!!
I’m sure you’ll do wonderfully there as you did here!!
Strangely enough, I’m moving to Portland for almost the same reasons. Not the sunny bit with the koalas.
Oh, and also kind of because of a guy.
Which sounds kind of retarded, but it’s more for me than for him. I need to start my own life on my own, away from here. He just helped me pick a place, I guess.
I’m moving to Japan in march to study genetics
but on a different note…. you should make a video about why religious people continue to be illogical, despite the large amount of scientific evidence to contradict them
I’m moving to kitchen to eat an apple…does that count?

I Hope that you find what you need in Austria. Maybe while your there you could relax a bit and spend time finding your inner funny not that there is anything wrong with your outer funny. Or you could take some time to see what is missing in your work. Maybe this is a chance to explore what makes you, you, or you could just spend the whole time thinking about why you like boobies. (kidding) have fun.
“I know that whatever demons I have inside me will follow me where every I go. I have also learned that sometimes the battle field we choose can have an advantage on the demons we can overcome.”
This is pure insightful brilliance….thank you for sharing.
“It will force me to meet new people, to be uncomfortable, to have new experiences. ”
If only more people would follow this example.
Congratulations, Enjoy the adventure of your life.
Blessings,
