New Faces, New Rig and 1600km of Patagonia Ahead // EP.79
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 мар 2024
- Irati's parents are visiting us for nearly three weeks in the Patagonia, and they are going to be traveling in a sprinter van.
This is a first for them, sleeping in a van, driving off-road and it's going to get interesting. First we need to pick up Karsten in San Martin de los Andes after his Huella Andina experience and then we can head south towards Bariloche and Circuito Chico. if I had to give a tip it would be to skip Bariloche, the town and focus on the area around Llao Llao.
But we really wanted to cover some distance and arrive in El Bolsón for the good weather. And we got one of the first good weather days in a long time and it was so good that we were able to swim in El Cajon Azul 💙.
Will the Sprinter make it all the way to Calafate, 1600km of Patagonian roads?
Enjoy the Ride!

Hey! Hope you enjoy this episode.🙌 Many of your are confused about when this was recorder. I get it. This was the last week of November 2023. We have delay between reality and or videos and at the moment this gap is bigger than usual.
Should I include the date in the videos for reference or write it in the description?
A certain time lag is absolutely understandable, but a gap of several months should be possible to read somewhere.
Your detailed travel descriptions are usually understood as a travel diary (i.e. also as information), if only because of the formulations in the present tense. And even if it is not intended to be a current political reportage, a time reference - mentioned somewhere - would help to better follow your "fate", because you are still travelling (see also crowdfunding).
It would be different if the journey was over and your descriptions were a general review; which would then be interesting in a completely different way!
Greetings

What a beautiful hike!
The hike to cajon del Azul is really beautiful. But I would recommend to go late spring rather than summer, because it gets really crowded !
How great to share the adventure with your loved ones! That’s special.
Absolutely grateful for these moments 🥺
Nice to see spring (and sunshine) coming to Argentina after all the rain and snow you've been through!!
Yes, yes, yes!! It was so needed and it felt revitalizing 💃
What a wonderful trip! Beautiful scenery, incredible foods and to have family along for the ride. Enjoy these special moments!!! Another incredible video.
What a trip! Having family to experience this with is such a great opportunity. 😎🤩
Luego de mas de un anio de no verte con tus padres, encontrarlos en la Patagonia con una sprinter super equipada y hacer algunos paseos por esos paisajes paradisiacos es fantastico... Disfruta de tus padres y que tengan buenos paseos....!!!

Hi from Peru! Thank you for joining us in this crazy ride!
It is springtime in Memphis Tennessee also .. glad it's finally warming up but still raining here often. Enjoyed the video. 😊
Spring is always a reason to smile! 😄 Thank you for watching and commenting!
Hi guys, another great video - such beautiful landscapes. How lucky you are to be able to share this with family. Enjoy every minute. How long will it be until the blueland is traded in for a white sprinter van......
I will keep watching anyway.
Hey!! It was so beautiful to share the road with them. We pushed them a bit, and they got to experience some adventure in Argentina. What a place to do it! The Landy is not going anywhere, new additions are not disregarded but the bank accounts say otherwise 😅
Great to have your parents with you in such a beautiful place.
Gotta say the Blue Landy looks like a seasoned explorer and the Benz like a rich kid wanna be.

Ah, the luxury of living in a camper van.

Olá meus amigos estou a viajar com vocês abraço
♥️🤗
Great that your parents have joined you guys. I’m sure they’ll love Argentina. What’s the rattle in the Landy. Is it getting louder ? Or have you fixed it by now ?
So amazing to have them around! We have so many rattles in the car I lost count. The one from the front is coming from a bolt of the bed. We need to replace it, but to get it out we need a heat gun or so. A job for when at home
I’m very curious- I have never seen Kai without a phone in his hand ( unless he’s driving or fixing his car). So I wonder if he’s addicted to his phone or he’s showing a discontent with being part of the RUclips videos.
I think I just took video of those moments, but what appears in the video is an snapshot from the day. In any case you raise a great point. I think we both use the phones more often than at home. Either to answer comments, Instagram, planing route and following our expenses. So everything is literally on our phones. Apart from that I believe we also use our phones to escape, when we feel we cannot go anywhere else. This is a lot more serious thing. Let me ask explain. We are limited by the car and what we can do individually. We share space 24/7 and there is no real way of having personal space. I think the phone has become a way of interacting with the outside world, to feel not so trapped in the Landy. But it's not so simple, and the topic is big enough for a whole video series. We are aware of the overuse of our phones and I am already setting boundaries, and most probably will get a lot more minimalistic when at home. Thank you for your comment. Not so many people are aware of the time dedicated to the screens and it's concerning...
How enjoyable is it when you are the three of you on the land Rover
Every person adds a layer of complexity, but we’re all aware of what we got ourselves into so it’s fine. With bad weather it gets cosy but for some time even that’s fine! 👍🏻
"Our selfs"......should be "our selves" or our self.
"Kai" is the Polynesian (southern) word for food.
@@bertplank9892 ""Kai" is the Polynesian (southern) word for food."
Interesting! In Papua New Guinea people speek Pisin ("Tok Pisin"). And they say for example: you can kai kai this animal, when it is eatable! 🙂
Yeah, I knew that, in Hawaii Kai also means Ocean 😉
@@Thebluelandy "...in Hawaii Kai also means Ocean"
So this would be: very hungry! 😎
What month was this filmed? If recently it must be Autumn rather than Spring?
Hey, no we sadly have quite some delay in the videos, there is just to much happening to always fit it in one week. This was end of November
How do you guys afford to travel so long term? Most other travel vloggers take a pause and go back to work for a couple months etc.
Hey Nils,
We talk about that topic, in the Q&A video,
ruclips.net/video/J2uCWkssUJg/видео.htmlsi=3z8BdX2EEimTzxOr
But to make it short, live below your means save up money, and then watch your spendings on the go. We spend traveling less money as we did at home in Germany.
Und, was ist der Grund für die weissen Haare?
"Und, was ist der Grund für die weissen Haare?"
Irati meint ja, sie wäre der Grund. Das ist natürlich nicht wahr, denn wäre sie der Grund für Kummer, dann würden Kai wahrscheinlich die Haare eher ausfallen! 😉
Grüsse (aus F) und gute Wünsche für Eure inspirierende Familien-Fahrt! 🙂
Roger-T.
