Mike, aka German in Venice, vlogs about daily life in Venice Beach. His newest video is a continuation of his series on the homeless encampments that have taken over Venice Beach. In this video, he gets drone footage of the homeless encampment.

"Today was a beautiful day, I took my brand new drone DJI Mavic Mini out and took some video of the homeless encampment in Venice Beach. It’s a totally different view when you see everything from higher up, birds view. They also cleaned several spots on the boardwalk and a few homeless tents were removed."
