From Bastiaan

Hi Phil,

Eight months since the email exchange below, I just wanted to quickly reach out to you.

Vaping has become a very enjoyable hobby for me.
Right now I am in Montreal Canada for a business trip and I’ve managed to visit 5
B&M’s while here. (I don’t have many in NL)
I’m enjoying every minute of this.

The main intention of this email is to give you my whole-hearted thumbs up!
I watch every single one of your videos, and I feel I should again commend you on
your efforts.
Your visit to china and especially the recent visit to flavourart (imho) really show
the world to what, the right players, are doing to bring this movement further.
Thank you sooo much for all your efforts!

I also follow other vaping content. (vp live and many other youtubers) I know they
tend to make fun of you at every possible moment.
Even though I feel you don’t care I wanted to voice my opinion that you _really_
shouldn’t care about them…

Since the last email exchange I have converted 5 smokers to full-time vaping, your
efforts help me (and them) to have a voice.
I do understand that this is really a sacrifice you are making, the youtube
monetization doesn’t compensate what you are losing in family time.
As a father of two I value this even more.

So hereby a big old man-hug from me….

Sincerest gratitude,

Bastiaan
