Overview
Daniel prepared breakfast, addressed streaming earnings, schedules, and bills, and uploaded an update to YouTube promoting his Kick stream before embarking on an outdoor hike at Meldon Reservoir.
During the hike up the Dartmoor moors, Daniel encountered signal fluctuations on his phone SIMs and Netgear Nighthawk router, navigating past bogs, insects, and firing range warning signs to reach the summit.
Following difficulties with descent navigation and a fall on the hill, Daniel returned to his vehicle, aborted an attempt to buy food due to parking and closed shops, and drove home amid tailgating traffic.
At home, Daniel discussed streaming equipment, potential return of the Nighthawk, platforms, music playlists, and past travels, later retrieving an Amazon delivery of aloe vera sent by a viewer and applying it with baby oil to soothe sunburn.
