Dit is echt wel prachtig. Zeer mooi in beeld gebracht. Ik hoop volgend jaar (op mijn 70) vanuit België (Scherpenheuvel) naar Santiago de Compostela te fietsen. En Ilse je bent echt wel een ervaren fietser geworden 😉🚴
What an amazing first bikepacking adventure for Ilse! 🚴♀ The Montanas Vacias route in Spain looks absolutely stunning, and it's inspiring to see her tackle such a challenging journey. Dealing with mud, snow, and running out of food must have been tough, but the experiences and the beauty of the remote Spanish wilderness clearly made it all worthwhile. It's wonderful to see the culture and scenery captured so beautifully. Great job, and thanks for sharing this incredible adventure! 🌄🇪🇸
I love that perspective, "I'm choosing to be here. I'm doing what I love. The bad times will pass. The roads will dry out, and we'll be cruising again." Both of you are so positive and wonderful with each other. What stunning, breathtaking views! ❤🧡💛💚
Thank you. I'm not sure we could travel this way with any other perspective. The lifestyle gets romanticized but it's often really challenging and sometimes just not fun at al 😂🤦♂️ Always worth it though ✌️
Recently, I came across your channel and adventures, and I felt the need to say its most peaceful and enjoyable to watch all your videos. Thanks so much, you two!
hats off to you Ilse!!! not once did you complain and you stayed positive throughout the whole trip. Proud of you and you are an inspiration to us all.... go well and go some more...
Thank you for sharing this, it was wonderful to watch the two of you and the landscape is amazing. I've been to France many times but would love to do something like this someday.

Nice! Not nice too I guess 😂 but I bet it was still a great experience! I never realized the Camino gets muddy but my only experience of it is from the movie, The Way.
Beautiful film! I’ll ride this route this next autumn, I just have a week so I have long days on the saddle to cover the whole route. Cheers from Norway 🇳🇴
Hey Kodak good to see you again! That adventure looked like it was pretty tough! I bet you're really proud of your wife! She's tough as nails. Take care!
Great video ❤ one day il do this route! Btw Río Tajo is the largest river of Spain. It empties in Lisbon and there's an amateur bike race following most of its course
Fantástico reportaje. Veo que el barro os ralentizó bastante la ruta, pero es un hándicap que aporta "belleza" a las rutas solitarias. un inciso, la música folclórica de la zona de Teruel no es la andaluza, es la aragonesa.
@@RefugioSerRa ¡Muchas gracias por el cumplido y por aclararlo! No teníamos idea. La región es absolutamente encantadora, y el barro definitivamente nos enseñó a tener paciencia, jaja.
I love the feel of your videos. There is a positive mood, even in the face of tyres gummed up with mud and extreme tiredness. Your camping gear is very similar to my bikepacking setup. I have the same tent, sleeping gear and stove. You planned a challenging route for one of your early bike trips. So hats off to you both for your resilience.
Hello from French Switzerland, I discovered your channel with this video and it’s always exciting to see new adventurers on bikes! Your images are magnificent (even without a drone;). Above all, it is so much more interesting to film with a reflex equipped with a zoom which allows you to bring out perspectives and details. I'm tired of the eternal images from GoPro and other super wide angle action cameras without focus. I really like filming details down to the smallest, such as flora and insects (also with an APS-C). On the road away from cars, take my time and listen to the birds and insects. It is the privilege of traveling at the speed of butterflies and being able to stop whenever and wherever you want to soak up the energy and immortalize the beauty of the Living. I saw that Elsa had an old gooseneck bike and my travel bike is also similar with front suspension (in addition to comfort, it considerably reduces the risk of falls) and the famous V-breaks (rim brakes) which are very effective when loaded and going downhill, ensuring progressive braking and do not block the wheels (especially with BBBtristop skates). Is it curious that you didn’t keep your old bike? In addition, when you have a geometry that allows you to stand up straight, it avoids back pain! I advise you as much as possible to eat healthily, to avoid heavy, industrial things like meat and chips, they are really poison without forgetting fast sugars. It’s a fragile balance because gluttony is losing us! How lucky is this medieval hotel with these herbal preparations^^ Thank you for this magnificent film and have a good trip^^ PS to purify tap water, I use a little of these charcoal and magnesium granules (they are found in these cartridges to soften the water).
Thank you and thanks for sharing! We're actually using disk brakes. Find them more reliable off-road but my old surly had rim brakes! As for the camera, I can't travel without it! Greetings from Dutch Belgium (I speak English though being a silly American)!
Both of you are nice people and that's colouring all your video. Even when it's hard, you try to keep smiling and go ahead. If more people would be as peaceful as you, there would be more happiness and less war on this planet.
@@Nicolas-ep5zj Wow, thank you very much for the kind words. We find that, without the hard times, we wouldn't recognize the good times. It's only in contrast that moments are special 😊
Hola! como está? There are approximately 4,000 Spanish loan words in Tagalog (between 20% and 33% of Tagalog words), and around 6,000 Spanish words in Visayan and other Philippine languages. The Spanish counting system, calendar, time, etc. are still in use with slight modifications.
I'm really glad you came to Spain 😊 It kills me to see mirrored clips because I see you riding on the left side of the road in Spain haha Also the brake disc and derailleur are on opposite sides 🙈
Great video! When I saw how bad your start has been with all that mud and snow, I expected that you will mentally break down soon, but you kept going and you were rewarded with beautiful scenery and medieval towns. Such a nice journey, I envy you.
Thank you! We really believe that without the bad times, we wouldn't recognize the ones. It's only in contrast that life is good! So, as much as it can suck, we still appreciate those bad times. At least we try to! 😂
Hello from India, those hidden waterfalls are amazing. Ilse first bike trip always be a hard one mine also but you if you will continue bike trip regularly this will be most beautiful traveling. Keep going on I am following you. 🤘
I was flying to Spain from Charleroi last year. Missed my flight, so I had to carry that 30kg huge box back and forth. On the second day I took my Ikea shopping trolley base, it's foldable - much easier. Shame on Charleroi airport, even in third world airports they have trolleys.
I used a Topeak Mountain Morph for years and years. Great pump: amzn.to/4gWGssd This year I started using a LEZYNE Micro Floor Drive. It's beautiful and the metal barrel is a great astetic: amzn.to/4eH73rF Not sure which I like more, but these are the two best. The Topeak is maybe faster since it's press on but the Lezyne is so nice.
A beautiful travelogue. Great landscape. I've already travelled almost the same length but without the mountains. (in Denmark) Respect. But why by plane and then also with ‘Ryanair’? That's a pretty nasty and employee-hostile company and should be boycotted. Can't you get there by train?
Thank you. It really is a beautiful place. It was the cheapest way and our budget is very tight. Train would have been SOO much better. We wouldn't have had to box the bikes then either.
Bike Touring to a certain extent and as an analogy, is parallel to those who believe in Jesus Christ, follow HIM, believe in HIS teachings, and understand that we exist in a fallen world filled with tons of wicked souls to pick up our cross, and follow HIM. To Preserver and continue in confidence and endurance and still aiming to believe and have a good attitude and heart even when one goes through hard times or challenges in LIFE.
NO flamenco (or flamenco like) music outside Andalucía! Please!! That music belong *exclusively* to that region (and it's pretty recent in time in historical terms), it is not heard and never has been played outside Andalucía, please don't put it in photage of other regions of Spain. Historic music form the region, historic national music, regional folklore music, music related with the period of the towns or monuments or something totally neutral with no direct connection like in the rest of the video would be a much better option.
And it's not even true! Google origins, history and countries of flamenco. Just one thing out of that: spanish expats dance flamenco all over the world...

Los callos, estomago de ternera, son un plato típico español muy bueno. Sobre todo de Madrid.❤

I was flying to Spain from Charleroi last year. Missed my flight, so I had to carry that 30kg huge box back and forth. On the second day I took my Ikea shopping trolley base, it's foldable - much easier. Shame on Charleroi airport, even in third world airports they have trolleys.
Oh no! Great idea with the trolley! What did you do with it when you started riding?
