Dear Phil,<\/p>\n

I hope you do not receive tons of bothering mails and please excuse my unperfect English.
\nJust felt like thanking you. I`m thankful for you entertaining me and sharing a part of your life, being quite a funny guy and teaching a lot about my newest \u201chobby\u201d.<\/p>\n

My personal story will be as many others, I\u2019ve been a smoker since I was about 16 years old \u2013 being 46 years old meanwhile this is far too long, when thinking back. Been trying to get off from this addiction for several times, but the longest period was for nearly two years back in the nineties. I always liked smoking, not for taste, maybe even not fort he drug nicotine itself. Rather for having a good time while handling a cigarette. I think, the addiction is more of \u201cdonating\u201d yourself with something \u2013 must not be a cigarette\u2026<\/p>\n

Last year around March I had a really bad time and tried to get off smoking once more, but that time I read an article about \u201cvaping\u201d and decided to just give it a try, ordered immediately a \u201cKangertech Evod Mega\u201d on amazon, which seemed to be nice and handy, having no idea about anything besides the basic functionality of vaping gear.<\/p>\n

The day it arrived was my last day of smoking. Period. Found my way out off the \u201cstinkies\u201d.<\/p>\n

After some days I started to discover the world of vaping \ud83d\ude42 Read everything I could find, watched my first YouTube videos \u2013 as I guess as nearly every German speaking person I started with Phil good and his \u201cliquidhimmel\u201d. I was kind of surprised to see a guy approximately my age, having years of his vape-story shared on YouTube. Helped me alot getting into it.<\/p>\n

Shook my head on the uncountable amount of \u201creviewers\u201d on YouTube, partly annoying, partly just to laugh about.<\/p>\n

I remained with a handful of them I really like \u2013 vapingwithvic, vapingbiker, thevapingbogan and of course the funny guy from far away in America called Phil \ud83d\ude42 Oh and I like DJLSB for his technical stuff, although I thinks it\u2019s quite hard to listen to him for a longer time\u2026<\/p>\n

I was deeply impressed, how big the community is, how extremely fast growing the industry around this marked is, especially in China \u2013 so I really loved your \u201ctrip-videos\u201d a lot. Are you planning further trips by the way ?<\/p>\n

So, this got far too long as I was afraid before – but I didn\u2019t just want to say \u201cthank you\u201d. Although I think this is the only important content. Just go on with your good work, have a good time, don\u2019t let yourself be taken down by that asshole of a disease and best regards from Germany,<\/p>\n
