for anyone considering gap year after high school:- take it, even if u cant afford to travel anywhere just take it. i was extremely overwhelmed from school, future, exams, everything. i decided it'll be okay to take a break and I've had so much fun. i caught up on my friends, family hung out with them, starting working out, i loved every second. unfortunately i could only afford to take 5 months off as i had to prepare for the next year's entrance exam, time went so fast when i was relaxed. those 5 months were the best years of my life, even though I didn't do anything adventurous. if you're burnt out, the least u could do for yourself is take a break.

my life wouldn't be the same without you in it simon! you've been such a beacon of positivity in this world and have impacted SO many people's lives in ways you probably don't even realize. if that's not success idk what is. so glad that somehow against all the odds our paths crossed! I'll never forget the first day we met at that airport in montana. from strangers to instant friends after getting lost on a hike. I'll also never forget the excitement we both had for what was to come! crazy looking back at it. little did we know it was the beginning of EVERYTHING. thanks for just being you my friend! love you brother, keep living!

I'm going to be honest here, I think this is one of the best videos I've ever watched in my life. It felt like a Wes Anderson film. I've never even watched you before and I was in tears by the end. This is amazing, so incredible

This is quite frankly the most corecore video I have ever watched. The cinematography, the score, the voice lines all perfectly meshed together in this beautiful masterpiece that shows that people should just take time to live life and experience what it has to offer. Truly brings a tear to my eyes

IĀ“m just on a gap year to see the world (currently in New Zealand) and it is the best decision you can make. It's not always easy, but it pays off in so many different ways. You learn about so many different perspectives, gain great experiences and friends, but most importantly you learn so much about yourself. So if you are thinking about: Take the step, just do it. You will never regret it.

yo simon. idk if youāll see this but man Iām laying down watching this video and it was hard for me to finish it. I found myself pausing several times throughout thinking to myself āI am a loser.ā I recently just dropped out of school, or I guess Iāll call it an indefinite break. I am completely lost and I feel like time is running out. Seeing you come this far from a TikTok challenge is really, really inspiring. Ive lived my life fantasizing what itāll be like to āembraceā the unknown rather than actually entering it. And with my decision to put school on pause, iāve been deciphering the purpose of my life and the dream that I so willingly push to the side due to its inconvenience and the unknown. I, too, dream of telling stories. I havenāt fully said that out loud. Maybe I fear that people will laugh and tell me that Iām not capable of doing so, confirming the narrative Iāve already internalized. But itās something I canāt go a day without thinking about, that must mean something, right? So idk where Iāll be tomorrow or next week or next year but I know that Iāll put all of my energy into keeping this dream alive. Lord knows itās done the same for me.

I'm 19 and I'm entering slowly but steadily this very phase. I can't stop crying after watching this beautiful video, cuz I'm thinking that Hey this might happen to me too one day in the near future. Right now I feel like I can do nothing right, I don't know anything, no experiences, nothing that can make me espace the "just surviving day after day" phase. Also my motto till now was "Work hard, and get results. No matter the costs". But there was one small problem. I didn't pay enough attention to the people around me, thus, I left myself alone. You just changed that. The people around you really matter. The communities, like you said, really matter. The past few years I thought that strong people can shoulder anything. Guess not...That's why we build communities. I'm really starting to understand now. And just like you said: "There's something so beautiful about throwing yourself into the unknown and just seeing what happens...to take that leap of faith and to embrace the possibilities of failing". I gotta take that leap of faith too and embrace all possibilities that may occur in this stage of life called "University", meeting new people, learning as much as I can, acquiring as many life skills as I can. Thank you for all of this <3

when you thanked your friends at the end, i started to cry. i don't know why, maybe it was seeing the names and faces put to your experience, and it showed just how many good/important connections across the world/friends you made.. idk man.
i'm scared of not making friends/of wasting my time when i go on a gap year next year, but seeing you experience them, has helped me feel its more obtainable than my fears suggest.
sorry if my writing is a bit muddled/incoherent lol.
also side note, your editing is very very good!

I honestly just love seeing people do what they want in life. No restrictions, just purely exploration and life. Live life for us, Simon!

I took a gap year, and I felt useless and dumb. I thought that I wasn't doing anything, but I came to a realization that I actually did a lot this year. I learned friendships don't last, I learned boundaries, and I learned how to control my mind by not being controlled or blinded by lust and overthinking. And lastly, I learned how to compare myself to my past self and not to compare to others because I definitely did a lot of that in the past. But, everyone has their own timing of things. Don't compare yourself to others. I really loved this video it made me teary-eyed, it's absolutely beautiful and wholesome. I wish I could've traveled, but I will someday. (If you read this uhm thank you <3)
