“Going to the website you start hearing people’s stories […] you research until you find something and I kept coming back to this and really liked it. There’s a big support community ethic, which is part of it.”

“I learned about […] the different bases and juices. There’s so much knowledge out there and I became a nerd. And it became a hobby.”

It becomes, you don’t do anything without a cigarette in your hand. Now I can still do that and still get the nicotine without disgusting somebody else because I am smoking, and it does stink.”

“[…] When I quit cigarettes, my fixation with, you know, vaping, is very similar. So I like to vape while I’m in the car, I like to vape while after I have a meal or when I have a coffee or when I’m drinking and so on, so it mirrors that almost.”
