PREVIOUS SHOW COMMENTS AND REVIEWS:

“Thank you for an entertaining and inspiring evening at KPU. What I appreciated most about your show was your love for the people who inhabit the places you visit. It seems to me that this is the real jewel of your experience – connecting with others and sharing the joy of being alive in this beautiful world. Your shows are an antidote to the pain we hear about in the news, and a reminder that there are good people everywhere. We need a lot more Wil-liams in the world! Thank-you for spreading kindness, tolerance, playfulness and respect. With warm appreciation (Janice Titleborn, Langley)

“I love your adventurous spirit and the unique immersive experience you offer at your shows. We will be back! My (11 year old) daughter enjoyed it though it was a bit past her bedtime by the time we finally got back home (to the USA), It was lovely! I really appreciated the way you travel with an open heart and mind relating to the cultures you meet. You managed to relate with locals with a goofy flair and it was refreshing to see. Looking forward to seeing your Norway show!” (Tana Kaiser, Bellingham USA)

“I had a fabulous experience as always! Thank you for all that you do. Your talent and en-ergy is infectious. I couldn’t help but squeal in your face: ‘I f&%king loved it!” (Natasha Jahrsdoerfer, Vancouver)

“Brilliant!” (Nick Woodhouse, Vancouver)

“I enjoyed your Ire & Ice show so much, fantastic. You have such amazing journeys and your photography is breathtaking. Your audience had such a good time, lots of laughs and applause. So so nice that your new and I am sure lifelong friend flew across the world to see you and support you. So fun to watch his reaction when he saw himself on the big screen” (Barbara Graf, Mount Vernon, USA)

“Just wanted you to know how much your Show is appreciated! You are so flexible and incredible that you managed to turn a crowded space into such a positive experience for people.

“Informative, funny and of course, the photos were tops! Stay safe… I worried about you standing on those high cliffs. ” (Helen Vermeulen, Edmonton)

(From GETCA teachers conference shows) “I arrived early so was able to enjoy having a seat for both shows. All around me the same question was being asked, “Why such a small venue? Don’t they know how great he is?” Thank you again for such an incredible tour of the people and places of Ireland and Iceland. As my grandpa is from Ireland and my Grandma is from Iceland , it was a remarkable opportunity to see both of their home countries at the same time! Thank you again for bringing countries and people to life. I love how you always say to travel with a smile. Especially at this time , it is such a wonderful reminder of how we are all connected and that a smile can be spoken in any language. I look forward to your next event. Safe travels” (Marie Lamarre, Edmonton)

(from GETCA conference shows): “It was squishy but awesome! I’ve already asked the GETCA president to make sure you get a bigger space for your new Norway show next year!” (Michelle Aoki, Edmonton)

“Great show last night…maybe Ireland is our next trip! I took a video clip of the shark tasting if you want to use it” (Rob Quiring, Vancouver)

“Went to your Friday show and had a great time. It was hilarious to meet your friend from the Icelandic restaurant! Thanks for a great show” (John Swanson).

“I absolutely loved going to your shows. Your photos are beautiful and the stories are so entertaining. I attended your show about Japan at Langara, in Vancouver. Looking forward to seeing you in person again” (Sandy Wong, Vancouver)

“WOW! WOW! and WOW! Again. Superlatives fail us. What an exhilarating performance. All landscapes, people and language segments a delight. Kudos to your Icelandic guest and his memorable participation. Smells and all! Just keep on doing what you’re doing! (Cathy and Jim Willis, Richmond, BC)

“What a great show, so many funny moments mixed in with amazing stills & drone footage!!!! Love your sense of humor so much and would recommend to anyone who loves to travel or are looking for a very entertaining evening. Well done sir, well done!! ” (Alfred Steinborn, Edmonton)

“I thoroughly enjoyed your Ire and Ice presentation in Vancouver, highlighting how you really connect positively with the locals as you travel, to the extent that some of them follow you to Vancouver! I do think that Icelandic saying should be “the raisin at the end of the hot spring” (instead of “hot dog”) because after spending too long in an Icelandic hot pool, one can look like a raisin.: (Jennifer Lamb, Vancouver)

“So entertaining with the mixture of still photography, drone footage and interviews!!! Love your sense of humour so much. Great show, thanks again” (Alfred Steinborn, Edmonton, Mar 12, 2023)

“Thanks for the entertaining evening on Tuesday. Really nice to see you in your element. Great sto-ries and experiences that you are lucky to have had. I don’t know if I could travel in your style but I certainly enjoy it vicariously” (Dave Weston, Langley)

“Wonderful show! I saw it last night and enjoyed it thoroughly. William was in fine form, and we were all in stitches at the end. Definitely, you should go!” (Mary Jensen, Richmond)

“A great night out for my friend and I. Could we have smiled any harder??! We reminisced about the first show we saw at the Ridge, plus others downtown & at Langara, and think this is your best show yet! Appreciate all the time you put in and of course your wonderful talents of photography and storytelling! We had a fantastic time. God, you are crazy brave with those heights. The drone captures the experience way too well. Nev-er thought heights bothered me, now I know” (Chris Okabe, Vancouver)
