Documenting my journey through time.
Verona, Italy. Visit the City of Love. Use Verona Card to explore. Walk and bus ride.
Verona is a captivating place full of history. Despite the number of enthusiastic tourists, the place does not lose its charm. From the old historic structures, piazzas, churches to the romantization of Romeo and Juliet there are lots to see and do in Verona.
We stayed here for a week and made Verona as our base to explore other parts of Northern Italy.

Florence, Italy. Fast train from Verona. Frecciarossa1000 Business class.Uffizi express.Walking tour
Просмотров 82221 день назад
We travelled from Verona to Florence on the 15th of August which is a Bank holiday in Italy. We took the business class fast train which was surprisingly cheap as long as it is booked in advanced (only 5 Euro dearer compared to standard seat). It was a relaxing journey and we both wished the trip was a little bit longer. Florence is a lovely place to visit although it is packed with tourists. A...
Earth Pyramids in Renon/Ritten, South Tyrol scenic walk. Bolzano Bozen day trip. Cable car and train
Просмотров 177Месяц назад
Starting from Verona, we took an early morning train to Bolzano. The Journey was around 2 hours. We arrived at Bolzano at around 9:30 am. We headed straight to the cable car station which is about half a kilometer away. There was only a short queue at the ticket office and I was advised to best get the combo ticket since we intend to take the train at the top. There is a quick turn around of ca...

We traveled from Verona and spent the day in Vicenza. We enjoyed the historical surroundings that dates back to pre-Roman times, but thanks to it’s Renaissance figure, Andrea Palladio, with whom the city is most associated. One of the preeminent figures in Western architecture, Palladio built more than twenty buildings here, including the Basilica Palladiana, the Palazzo Chiericati (home to Vic...

After spending the morning hiking to Madonna della Corona, we took a bus from Spiazzi and disembarked at Cisano. We just had a quick look at the lakefront of Cisano and then we took the bus to Spiazzi where we spent several hours exploring the historic town. We then took the ferry to Peschiera del Garda. We walked around the fortress and then made our way to the train station to catch a train t...
Santuario Madonna della Corona, Italy. Train journey from Verona to Peri. Hike the Pilgrim’s Path.
Просмотров 2912 месяца назад
We took an early morning train from Verona Porta Nuova to Peri. From Peri, we walked for 3 miles to reach Brentino. It was a pleasant walk at 7am and the terrain was flat. From Brentino, we followed the Pilgrims Path. With a relaxed pace and plenty of stops we reached the sanctuary after a 2 hour hike (3 hours including the walk from Peri). The route is on my strava profile: strava.app.link/q8I...
Lyon, France. Travel from airport to city centre. Traboules walk. Visit the zoo/Parc de la Tête d'Or
Просмотров 8372 месяца назад
Lyon is a historic place in France. It is rich in history due to its geographical position, and used to be a pillar of the catholic religion. It’s a nice city to visit, capital city for silk trade and fabrics, the end of the “route de la soie” ; but also known for the gastronomy, long list of “chefs étoilés” or traditional “bouchons”, which are the informal places where you can eat the traditio...
Annecy, France. Train ride from Lyon. Walking tour. Venice of the alps.
Просмотров 7323 месяца назад
Annecy in the French Alps is a wonderful destination. It is sometimes called “Venice of the Alps” With a large beautiful lake, reputed as one of the cleanest in Europe there is, connected with canals that criss-cross the town with the backdrop of the Alpine mountains and beautiful period buildings all round makes for a great outing. We had an enjoyable boat ride around the lake and were swept o...

Vienne was an important city at the time of the Roman Empire , known by the Latin name of Vienna (whilst Vienna in Austria was called by its ancient name Vindobona).

Bodiam Castle, East Sussex. National Trust. Quick visit. Film location of Wonka 2023
Просмотров 1673 месяца назад
We arrived at midday at Bodiam Castle. Fortunately, it stopped raining. The weather was really bad in the morning with strong winds and heavy rain. I think this why there aren't many people visiting on a Saturday. It was nice to explore the area since it's not busy. As we are leaving, the weather improved and a huge number of visitors have arrived. Although it was a quick visit, only a coule of...
Scotney Castle, National Trust. Visit the set of Netflix series The Sandman

We were in Tunbridge Wells and decided to visit Scotney Castle on a whim. It was the May bank holiday Moday. On the NT website is says that on a busy day (weekends and bank holidays) it is expected to book the car park in advanced which I did not know at that time. We also forgot our NT membership cards! When we arrived on the site, there is a sign that says full car park. There were a few cars...

We arrived at Stourhead at lunch time. There were a handful of cars at the car park but it wasn't too busy. We explored the garden first and given it's our first time, we were trully amazed with the surrounding. There are viewpoints that we took our time to take in the scenery. We tried to explore the outer area to get to the obelisk but it can be accessed only throught the side of the House ho...

We went to Porto in April 2024. We were there for 4 nights although we only spent roughly 2 days exploring Porto. It is such a beautiful city and lots of things to see and do that we wished we had more time to explore. Gaia is the city across the river and is a must see if visiting Porto. Most of the nice spots are walkable in Porto and Gaia although it can be hilly. It's our first time using t...

Thank you for a very comprehensive view of Verona and especially for avoiding Juliet's balcony
Sorry, but: Uffizi, not Ufizzi; San Lorenzo, not San Lazaro; Michelangelo, not Michaelangelo; Accademia, not Academia. For the rest, very good!
Thank you for the corrections. I have made ammendments.
Thanks for visiting. 💐
very nice view
The scenery was stunning!
Wherever you go in Italy, the architecture are beautiful! Subscribed done Amigo! Louie Vi
Beautiful scenery! Lovely view from the cable car! The old town is beautiful!
This was a fantastic virtual tour! I make similar content and would love to chat about the best spots we’ve covered.
Thank you. No problem, let me know how I can help.
How’s life?-Like it~that's interesting trip~ godspeed-;)
I live ! kilometers from Bergerac and know Sarlat well. You should try Domme which isn't too far from Sarlat.
@@johnnyrvfThank you for the recommendation.
Nice trip. I am thinking about renting a car there as well as first time from California. What rental car company did you use? Can you share tips on rental car. We will use out Citi Bank Visa which cover car rental. Any tips on driving there in terms of speed cameras, what to watch out for? Do you recommend renting a car just for one day trip to the castle. Or of course we can take trains.
Thank you. I used MunichCar24 as they offered the best deal at that time. Most rental companies will have a set number of mileage whereas it was unlimited with MunichCar24, they don’t charge for crossing the border as well since I drove a bit in Austria. It was also a decent car (Audi A3). I would avoid small engine cars as it is hilly in Southern Bavaria. They have nice roads there so driving isn’t challenging. There are speed cameras specially in small towns, but I didn’t find them problematic. Regarding insurance cover, I bought a full insurance from the rental company. I am not sure about the process if using your own insurance. I understand a deposit (1k euro I think) is needed, if not taking their own insurance. They may hold this on the credit card for a period of time. If you’re only going to Neuschwanstein Castle, in my opinion it would be better just to take the public transport. It is a longer journey but less hassle. Parking around the castle grounds is not easy as it fills up quickly, I think I just got lucky when we went there. Parking in Munich is also something to consider. If you want more flexibility however, like what we did, to be able to visit other towns, etc then hiring a car would be the better option.
@@ryanincontrol Thx for much for valuable info and recommendation. I will take trains to the castle since it is a long drive.
Very helpful video! Is there an entry fee to the klamm? And do you think it's possible to do it with small kids?
Hi. There is a fee only to enter the waterfall (as it’s in a private land) however the klamm and all its walkways are free to enter. It’s meant to be family friendly and therefore small kids should be able to manage this. As a matter of fact, there are loads of information panels on the way to the walkways to entertain the kids (goblin stories).
Very nice video with southing background music .
Very nice video ❤. Never heard of Vienne France but you did a great job capturing the peaceful and beauty of this French town. I hope to visit this town next time we are in Lyon. Thank you for the excellent video 👏🙏.
I'm grateful for your kind compliments.
Thanks for posting. Sarlat is definitely on my bucket list now
I really enjoy your channel. I subscribed after viewing your Sarlat episode as I follow mostly travel channels. I just wanted to say that yours is particularly well done. The photography and editing are very good and your comments and descriptions are interesting and concise. Just enough information. The music seems organic and subtle. I appreciate your work and hope there will be many more to come.
Thank you for your kind words. I enjoy doing it and therefore will continue to do more videos as much as I can.
bel servizio senza troppe chiacchiere
Can you let me know the name of the river tour that you took?
Hi. We went with Rota do Douro.
13:19 before anyone asks: the water is likely safe to drink (I would)
3:04 that point is also a real international border. Bavaria belongs to Germany, Tyrol belongs to Austria, so you're crossing from Germany into Austria at that point. Not everyone is as xenophobic as the US... ;-))
Well done chaps! Nice video thanks for the share 👍😁
Well done pre, daming riders

Thank for your movie. It is always a pleasure to welcome visitors and to promote our region
Just been watching your great video because we are visiting Bergerac in a couple of weeks for a few days and then I realised we are staying in the same apartments as you. What a coincidence 😊
Wow, that’s awesome. I think there are 7 apartments in the building. It’s a nice location and the lady owner is friendly. We enjoyed our stay there. I am sure you will too.
Iya what bergerac like for a few days and were do you stay

Any problem with the bars 10 months on?
No problem at all. I've used it in bad weather and rough roads. Really pleased so far. I may take down the bar tape at some point to have a closer inspection as I'm considering getting another one for my winter bike.
@@ryanincontrolhey!! Just about to buy both handlebar and seatpost. How is holding up?
@@aminabellalvaradoaguero9190 Hi. I don’t have experience with the seatpost to share with but the handlebars are fantastic. I am very happy with it that I bought another one about 4 months ago. I have the Toseek bars on 2 of my bikes now and haven’t encountered any problems whatsoever👍
@@ryanincontrol what about the place where the handlebar is attached to the stem clamps ? are there no bends in the carbon fiber? ...common problem with carbon bars
@@ОлегСурженко-с7ж hi, so far it’s fine and there is no play. I always use a torque wrench and apply a little bit of carbon paste when tightening the clamps. This way it avoids me over tightening the clamps which could weaken the carbon fibres.
Tunog mayaman si Hunt pre, ayos👍🏾
Dyan din kami pre, sayang di tayo nagkita👍🏾
Oo nga sayang.
