Do what you love and the rest will follow...

I’m a firm believer that you have to do what you love. I’m sure my colleague Jonas would agree with me here. It’s why I make science films and write profiles about plants and animals. There really isn’t a lot of money in it, but somehow we make it work. Recently, our accountant sent me this film. He said it made him think of us. As I watched it, I kind of teared up. I think you all might enjoy it as well.

As I watched this I could almost hear my brother telling me that I should get a real job (which he’s done multiple times). I remember when I was really poor, living on 1,000 dollars a month on a boat in the pacific – rent is free that way. I remember borrowing money from friends to get my cameras. I didn’t enjoy that part of it, but somehow I made it without loosing those relationships. I feel so lucky to be doing what I do. Now, I just hope that it’s useful for others as well. I hope you enjoyed this little video we found.
