    I almost thought I was watching a video on “Marko’s” channel. You sound exactly like Marko and also the video aesthetic is the same that you give off the same vibe like Marko when I’m watching his videos! I found it funny and interesting 😊 Keep it up bro!

    just found your channel your content is a quality content I am also looking forward to come german and do my master also job!
  • Love your video, it helps me really much. Can I give you a little suggestion? I think your audio balancing between background music and your voice is a bit off, the background song when you are not speaking is loud so I have to decrease my volume, but in the other hand when you started talking, your voice is soft so I need to bring up my volume again. I am an audio engineering student and freelance video editor so I know a little bit about audio level. Overall very video, I love it!
