You Are a Global Citizen (intro'd & summarized) by the author, yours truly

⭐️ I DID WHAT I COULD DO! I PUSHED THE ENVELOPE AS FAR AS I COULD! I AM (mostly) happy with how my first (and last? lmao) book turned out. My experience working with a publisher was hit or miss (and I mean I'm sure would they the same working with me), but it's not even about that. It's about how thousands of you have already bought the book before launch day, how the book tour is already sold out, and how the book is really just a symbol of this movement we're all helping push forward. I'm working on the Europe tour now...and I'll be filming the behind the scenes over the next few weeks!

I agree! I don't vibe with the corporate hustle culture in North America. I always think about if I was actually born where I would have fit in best it would be somewhere like France, Greece or Italy where they work to live not live to work
As an anti-war Russian I gotta say: I have been watching this channel for a couple of years now, and since I literally cannot travel nowadays, watching Damon's videos has been so refreshing. It's nice to know people from all over the world can share a global citizen mindset and a love for other cultures

"Maybe your people are elsewhere.." I feel this. I've been watching your content since waaaaaay back when, if you know what I mean... I'm 61 now and you finally got me to hush up and varoom! I did a solo Paris trip Dec. 6-13 and it was liberating! My book comes tomorrow!!!!

I was really looking forward to the audio book. Hopefully it's coming.
ORDERED THE BOOK TODAY!!!! This has really motivated me to call Geico and get the $200 they owe me from when my car got broken into on my first day living in Portland, OR where some thieves stole my passport! And the thieves at Geico never gave me any money for that incident, but I'm calling them this week and getting that $200 to get a new passport so I can fly to Costa Rica and visit my very own father!
SO excited to get my grubby little hands on such an interesting, funny, insightful and enriching book!!! Thank you for all your hard work in helping us be more self aware and self reflective this 2023 and beyond, Damon

Can’t wait for my order to come in! Congratulations, Damon! I’ve been watching your videos since I was in high school and it’s so amazing to see where you are now
Man I feel like I grew up with Damon (I'm turning 31 in April), and WOW HOW FAR HE'S COME.... and I finally get to put his book on my goodreads list lol
so happy for you Damon! been watching for years and your growth is inspiring. Looking forward to reading your book!
So happy about this and so excited to read. I've been watching you for so long and this is the perfect time to drop your book because am in my readng girl eraaaa.
I am so grateful for and refreshed by your openness when discussing the process of writing this! so excited for mine to arrive!!
Pre-ordered this months ago and I was so happy when it came in a few days ago!! Super excited to go through all the chapters and was stoked to see my question made it onto the QA!
so so proud of you damon!!!!! can’t wait to receive my copy this weekend and read it
I’m about to get mine!!! I’m excited, thank you for everything that you do❤
Yesss! and Yessssssss! and Yesssssssssss! congrats on this masterpiece, Damon, that pushes people to think further and across boarders. Love this so much and you so much, you're truly and angel!
Love the anarchic feeling of this lol. I’ve been following you for ages and you keep surprising me time after time. I support you!
Huge congrats Damon! Excited to dive into this 🥳
I’ve loved watching this journey on IG and TikTok, but I have to add here how excited I am for this! It’s so authentically you.
I've had an issue with identifying myself in terms of nationality, culture and lifestyle belonging for such a long time. Born in Poland, lived in the UK, Austria, on top of that constantly going back and forth to the US since my bf is American.... AND it's been getting really frustrating to not be sure where's my place on this planet. But I guess it's just less complicated not to put any label on myself and be a GLOBAL CITIZEN
Congrats Damon!🎉 This is amazing! You are so inspiring to so many people. Thank you for doing all that you do for us 😊 Can’t wait to get the book!!
I really am so excited for this book! I did a certificate in international learning with my degree and I really, really loved the intercultural communication aspect. It really helped figure out my cultural identity as a white person born in Canada and opened my eyes to how culture is learned, and your cultural identity will change as you experience different things, even in your own country not just abroad.
I just received my copy on my doorstep! This book is going to be thought-provoking and engaging and I am so excited to dive into it! 😁
I ordered it today! My Amazon only had one stock left so I’m very glad I could buy it. I can’t wait to read your book!
Pre- ordered the book months ago with the intention of reading in the airport during my European escapade. Proud to be free advert meant for you. You really are an inspiration and I wish you all the success !😘 👏
I didn't know you were coming to the Grove!😭 but I will buy your book! You're awesome Damon and Congratulations and God Bless you with health, happiness, safety and many more blessings!!!🥳🎉❤💯📖 Happy New Year!🥳🎉❤🥂💕
I cannot wait to read this!!! Congrats on your book!! ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so freaking excited for this book- I moved away from Paris and have someone hopefully picking it up for me when they come to visit Normandy this coming weekend. Having been watching your channel for so many years, I'm so proud to be apart of this community. I hope we meet someday. You know I'll be carrying the book with me on every trip to Paris in case we run into each other
Been a fan since the ShutUp&Go cards! Ordered the book today! Best of luck to you Damon!
I honestly can't wait to read this book. Waiting for my upcoming travel plans to start because it just seems appropriate
Definitely buying that ❤ i have never been more proud 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I love the way you think and operate in your life, you truly inspire me. The world benefits from each video, course, and book you publish. But also, the world benefits from you being you, regardless of if you post anything for the world at large. Congrats on the book, I'm excited to get my pre-order in the mail.

I feel like we would be best friends. You’re literally explaining perfectly all of my inner thoughts. So interesting and reassuring to hear it from someone else.
Congratulations Damon truly happy to see your growth! I’m about to wander into random Barnes & Noble until I find your book. Just for the hell of it. 😋

Great job Damon. I am so happy to see you 8 years later after I watched a couple of your videos with Jo. Wish you the best. Hugs 🤗
Let’s go!! Can’t wait to read this x
You never fail to make me want to be in a conversation with somebody!!!! I will say honestly that I don’t agree with some of the beliefs that you have but that’s the whole point! Your ideas and thoughts are always so engaging and provoking. Always looking forward to hearing more from you. Thanks Damon
Congratulations 🍾🎊🎉 live it up. Years and years of work and travel. You deserve to finally have a book.

Damon i’ve been a viewer of yours since i was thirteen and it’s been amazing seeing you come so far, you’re the only youtuber who’s shared such similar mindsets, opinions, and beliefs as me and you’ve been a huge role model, I love you please keep doing what you do!!!
Can’t wait to read it! Mine’s arriving Thursday 🎉

I loved this!!! As someone who has just gone through a similar process the hardest parts of writing you explained so well. 1. How do you put your thoughts on paper in a way that people will understand. 2. Letting go of what doesn't fit (the good, the bad and the ugly). Also who knew publishing houses were so complex and why??? You Did It Damon 🎉❤
Just ordered the book!!! I'm solo travelling for the first time this year and am so excited to bring it with me :)
Damon, thank you for being you, and telling it as it is!
51 minute video??? YESSSSS 😫🍿
I grew up in different cultures , in four countries on three continents. I perfectly understand and totally agree with what you say. I’m happy those thoughts found their way into a book for everyone to read, learn, and awaken to.
Damon, me alegras el dia sólo siendo tu! Acabo de comprar el libro y busco apoyarte de todas las formas posibles, tanto que estuve a nada de comprar tu curso para aprender español siendo hispanohablante JAJA Te admiro mucho y aprecio todo el esfuerzo y dedicación! Gracias por siempre buscar transparencia y mantenerte genuino! Un abrazo!

Honestly you are the one person who should write a travel book because it will make sense more than any one is capable of thinking......gonna buy it.. definitely ✨
Brilliant. I took a "risk" (LOL) and invested in you last August when you offered your unfinished book as a pre-sale. I did not care whether I ever saw the book: I just wanted to support you. And now you are a great success and more people have the lucky opportunity to meet your special talent and 'cutting-edge' personage! Well done! So proud of you!
I love your confidence
Can't wait for my copy to arrive! Greetings from Greece!
Preordered copy arrives tomorrow; can’t wait to travel.
I can’t wait to read this🥺
This is my second video of urs that I’m watching! U and ur apt are fantastic!!!my son is just like u!
aaaa to muito ansiosa pra comprar logo seu livro damon :) missing you here in brasil
I just discovered you. I grew up in Portland, Oregon and I’ve always felt like Paris is home.. since I was 7 yrs old I knew I had to be there. I’m now moving to Paris this fall… changing up my work life balance.. 2 weeks working in NYC ( I’m a flight attendant) and 2 weeks off in Paris to work on my art. That’s the plan. Thanks for your videos. I’m buying your book.
I love this idea, can’t wait to read it ! Already preordered in Germany 🥰
Just discovered your channel through the Apartment Therapy channel and I find your diction very enticing ✨
I live in Paris as an American too, Damon - and I'm always hoping I run into you but I never do!! You were even in my neighborhood, I saw it on Instagram one time (off the exact street I live on) sooooo I will definitely be coming to the book tour here in Paris! I'm also going to self-publish my own "How I moved to France" book on Amazon... hopefully I can find a publisher like you in the future for other stories of mine!
Bought the book today, can't wait to read it! This will be the first book I've bought since i was like 7 years old, so like first book in 20 years lol
You are the best, I bought your book today ❤
Just ordered today!!
I met your doppelganger in Lisbon!! Also can't wait to read your book !!
