    Oh Colombia, how I miss you. We had no idea what Peru had in store😂.
    That 360Cam footage is rad!

      Colombia was practice for Peru. Glad you liked the 360 footage.

    I think you had more adrenaline pumping on the crazy hill than during the paragliding. 😁 Thanks for sharing!

      You're right. The camera couldn't really capture how steep that hill was, and we were stressing too much to film the worst of it. It was pretty crazy. Thanks for watching!

      Hi David, Thanks for checking out our channel. We are on our way, and Pucon is going to be a highlight of our Pan-American trip. We will have some friends working there this season, too, so it will be extra special. See you in November!

    Loved this video. We’ve added paragliding to our list. Google just did same to us, up and down the narrow streets in a mountain town in Mexico, it’s really stressful with a heavy van. We’re switching to Waze to see if that is any better.

    • @Famagogo
      @Famagogo  4 дня назад

      Awesome! Yes, Google must be supervised at all times south of the border. I think the city driving has been the most harrowing. Are you having a great time in Mexico?

    On se demande ce qui etait le plus impressionnant la montée infernale ou le vol en parapente?
    Merci de france pour ce partage.
