I had lot's of questions regarding Hiking and, gotta say, watching your videos solved most of them. This info helped me out on How-To get Started, I'm also about to buy a new Backpack &, hopefully, next month I'll get into my first adventure, at 28 years old. Thank you so much for sharing! Cheers from Mexico & best of luck on your new Chapter! 🍻🌮🌄✌
There's a lot of homogeny and conformity within the backpacking community so it's refreshing to see some idiosyncratic rigs. Mirrors my own style. S2S trowel and color coordinated stuff sacks? Nice unique touch
you deserve so much more visibility i like that you continue making quality videos even with a couple hundred views ! Can't wait to see the videos from your trip.
Decathlon is the way! I've got the same down jacket and I think it works as good as a way more expensive one. About the filter, you may already know that some kind of sport cap that can be found on some regular water bottles, can be used reverse to do the backwashing so you can leave the syringe at home, is that a good idea? Have a good hike!
Me sorprende el buen resultado que, según dices, te dieron las zapatillas de Decathlon. Te aguantaron toda la travesía?? Gracias. Enhorabuena por el vídeo.
Hi, I’m planning my GR11 with my partner, I knows refugios would really add up, so we are planning on camping and maybe a couple of hotels when we are bigger towns. How much would you give as a budget for a month?
I did it with 1000 EUR back in 2021. I stayed at hotels I think only 1 night and at campsites maybe 5-6 times. Also didn't eat at restaurants, only a cafe + beer + pastry at bars/cafes. The rifugions and hotels really do add up. Some of them cost starting from 80 eur per night. Campsites on the other hand were cheap, usually 6-15 eur per person and have showers + ability to charge power bank overnight.
I only just started to ascend to the higher Pyrenees. Just camped at 1600m. Today/tomorrow we'll be going up to 2800, and I'll be able to judge that only then. I'll come back to this and reply again. Anyway, from what I've read and heard, you don't need microspikes that late. At least, I'm not carrying any.
Hey again. Just went down from 2800m and didn't see any snow. I think you can leave your crampons home. Some other hikers from Germany said the same thing, and they were about to finish in a week.
