I had signed up in his website to receive email status updates about his travels. This is probably what you are referring to:
A MESSAGE FROM AXEL;
After deciding to hang up my jockstrap (so to speak) and move forward with the next chapter of my life, I would like to express my feelings of gratitude to each and every one of you for the abundance of love, appreciation and support that have united us.
To those of you that I have had the opportunity to meet in person, I am especially thankful to you, for revealing yourselves to me, for your kindness and collaboration, and for the unforgettable experiences I have had the pleasure of sharing with you.
-Thank you.
Wishing you all the best,
Axel Hardy xx
