Romania is so underrated. Beautiful country and nice people.
@@cg000gc It is not romania but transilvania (Erdély)
Awesome Bjorn, you're looking healthy and strong, keep up your powerlifting routine. Mind, body, spirit.
His books are beyond great. Read most of them twice.
No vampires here. Thats something a vampire would say...
@@ksonss It's true, there are no vampires here. I am from Romania and have not seen a single vampire in 400 years.
@@mihais165 I'm American with Romanian blood and I get told I "look young" a lot. weird, wonder why. *sus drinking sounds*
Cold weather is better. Poke the like button.
Wow what amazing scenery… the heat can really affect us , even moreso in high altitude. I hiked Pico mountain in the Azores 8 years ago .. I found coming down harder on the legs…. Then at the bottom tripped on a tree root and fell… unreal …. No Vampires??? Maybe at night.
Great video … happy trails.👍
Cold weather is better. Going to be 122 degrees Fahrenheit here tomorrow
Summer bring ticks n chiggers out in New Jersey
Cold yes but cold and wet no.
Yeah hot weather just makes you lazy
Beautiful Forest; you could easily have been in the Schwartzwalder! All the vampires are running our Countries.
So true!!!
We’re so used to see you all covered up in long sleeves and jackets, seeing you in summer attire was such a shock!
Yeah😊 right
Carry less weight and you will bé fine.
Thank you for visiting my country🙏👍🕊🙋🏻♂️and Wellcome!🙋🏻♂️😉
I have been to Transilvania many times! Its such beautiful coutryside and the people are so lovely! ❤ Lots of Love from Switzerland Jenny
Very nice to see you here , in our beautiful but troubled country. As in fact all of ancient and authentic Europe is..
Beautiful land.
I'm in Scotland Bjorn,.......It rained................ AGAIN!
What is this thing you call rain?
In the Mohave Desert ( Needles CA.) it's already 98 degrees fahrenheit,11:07
am! 😂🍻👍
Same here (Scottish Highlands) - rain due all week & 14 degrees C in July!
@KevinSmith-yh6tl I'm out by death valley. 116 today, supposed to be over 120 by end of the week.
@@michaelball760
YOU BET!
Nothing else like it in the world!
KEEP HYDRATED MY FRIEND.👍
@@sueberesford6547I just did the NC 500 on my motorcycle, some crappy weather but loved Scotland .
From one heat-intolerant person to another I found the holy grail for hot weather… worked like a charm in Cambodia though I looked a bit goofy. Dress in head to toe clothes that are first put in a bath of water. Bring a large bottle of water and wet the drying fabric. You will stay cool as a cucumber!!! I remember melting in Romania in June as well!
This is how I garden in the U.S. South. I keep my head wet with the garden hose, which gets my cotton clothing wet, as well. It works. Wide-brimmed hat, too.
Wow! the scenery is beautiful.
A beautiful country. Just as described by Bram Stoker. Love your video. ❤
I delivered mail in 🇨🇦 for 23years. The temperatures ranged from -44 Celsius with the windchill to +44 Celsius with the humidex.
During the hot temperatures during the summer I would wear long sleeves and long pants and a wide brimmed hat . My sweat was captured by the material and cooled me. If you rely on sweat on exposed skin trying to cool you, your body will have to work harder, and you’d have to drink a lot more water due to having to sweat excessively.
Beautiful creation by the Almighty Creator!!
Thank you for visiting my birth country. I miss it so much. Currently living in Texas, flat lands
@@czikra you can still find some terrain in TX or nearby. Big Bend and Guadalupe Mountains National Parks, hill country area. not too far Arkansas and Oklahoma with beautiful hiking trails
I'm in mountains of Ohio and I was not impressed driving through Texas and living there.
We are Hungarians, mom lives in Texas. She has the same problem with the boring flatland 😅
@@RealKuty Hungarian also,
The vampires hide for the Viking ;-)
Beautiful vid Bjorn, thanks for sharing 👍
Greets from the Netherlands 🇳🇱, TW.
What a work out, equal to ten days in the gym only much more beautiful and in touch with nature. Bjorn knows how to get his exercise while on location working, multitasking professional. Thanks for the amazing video and work Bjorn, much appreciated.
It is brutally hot here in Tennessee, US. I am very much looking forward to cold weather camping and hiking again this winter.
@@ostekuste3646 Tennessee is the place were you have the worst ice storms in 30 years with 5-10°F (-15C/-12C) temps, stranding everyone in their homes, to it now being 92°F (33C) in less than 6 months.
Absolutely stunning!
Try living on the Gulf Coast of Mexico. Its always hot and humid. I could not imagine climbing at elevation under these conditions. Thanks for sharing.
Beauthifull florest !!! thank you so much for the hike ❤amazing view
That’s my country Romania 🇷🇴 ❤🎉
Building up that heat tolerance!!! Love it. Next you can come visit us in Texas! Cheers boys.
@@HedonisticPuritan-mp6xvAwesome! 👌 😆 👍
Cold weather hiking in Norway's I would take any day over hiking in the heat
The Balkans can have the hottest weather in Europe. I hope you take it easy.
I love Romania, thank you for sharing your journey!
Beautiful, Bjorn!
What a journey 🙂
Greetings from Louisiana my favorite bearded guy in the woods
This heat is quite unusual for Europe, when i was younger i rarely had to deal with this level of heat.
The vampires are in the castles! And especially in the gift shoppe 😏. I loved Romania. ❤️
Haha, too bright for vampires!
Hello, a very nice tour. The natural landscape is beautiful and adventurous. A subscription for you. Best regards 😊👍
Thanks for taking us along!
Absolutely lush countryside.
Beautiful! Thanks Bjorn! ❤️👍🙏
Utterly stunning. Romania's next on my list for April 2025.
Glad to see you enjoy our scenery, it was great to meet you at the book signing!
Welcome to my country Bjorn! Hope you enjoy your stay and that you visit Dracula's Castle. Just don't go there at night time :)
My ancient Dacian ancestors were known to be some of the best blacksmiths during their era at around same time as ancient greeks, surpassing Roman technology before the Vikings claimed that title during the medieval Dark Ages. I believe we also traded things among eachother during the middle ages
My ancestors used to wave the Dacian Draco (wolf head and serpent body on a stick) to scare off the Roman invaders and it was cleverly designed with feathers to amplify the howling wind sound and make it seem more terrifying. We also believed in multiple gods, Zamolxis being one of them and our beliefs were very closely tied to nature as well
Spectacular views no doubt worth the effort, enjoyed watching Bjorn thanks for sharing. 💯👍
my country is the most beautiful ❤
Beautiful!🇺🇸
Always wanted to know what the geography was like in that region. Had no idea how rugged it is, and old the geology. I'm 4 generations removed from Norwegian and Swedish immigrants. All my life I've had difficulty with hot, humid weather. I have to wear headbands to keep from getting eye infections from sweat that rains down my face, and 2-3 changes of clothes on a hot summer day. Even experiencing summer in Larvik it was hard to stay dry. Thanks for the tour!
beautiful!
Yes, it is crazy what is going on with the weather. Same in our country. What use to be almost like the Scandinavian weather - when we used to go to the mountains to get cooled down is gone. It is almost like this in Transylvania. Greetings from Slavic tribe - Slovakia!
Greetings from a Transylvanian living in Scotland! One more week and I'll be home.
Bjorn you are fab ❤ love your vids ..love from Wales in the uk
Never hiked under gorgeous conditions before 😎
Hiking in Romania in the winter or autumn is much better, I'm from Transylvania so I can tell from experience 😂. Here the summer gets pretty hot (although this summer was unusually hot till now imo, at least in the area where I live) but in the winter it gets really cold and snowy in the mountains, and it's a lot better. But a lot of areas in the Carpathians are not exactly safe during the winter so there are many trails that you can only do during the summer, or it's suggested for your own safety at least unless you have a lot of experience and quite professional equipment. I would like to add that it's suggested not to hike alone in the Romanian mountains since they are filled with bears. They normally should fear humans but they got too used to us which makes them much more dangerous since they are less likely to run away when they hear or see you
I can't wait for your book coming up in Hungarian language.
Some of his books are already available in Hungarian.
Greeting from Achensee, Tirol Alps! Enjoy your travels!
Looks amazing countryside.. living the dream Bjorn 👍
One of my former colleagues in Tesco hailed from Transylvania. We used to drive a van together on occasion. Istvan, if you see this I wish yourself & your wife a lovely Transylvanian summer.👍
Wow! Welcome in my country!🌈✌️I am from Transylvania 😊Beautiful places 👍
Transylvania is beautiful and historic ❤ my father was born and raised there before moving to Canada. Wonderful video 😊 and kudos for making the journey🎉
So Beautiful and peaceful, thank you for sharing
Bjorn, thank you for taking us along with you. It tired me out, too. lol
you are in my country! i know you will love it 🥰
Nice to see you in my country !
Velkommen i Romania!
Thank you for sharing! The heat can be rough to deal with even as someone who has been familiar with it for years. 😅 This is a very beautiful place. ❤
A pony tail helps to keep cooler
Beautiful scenery! Try climbing up mountains in Asia with steps instead of tracks!! Grueling exercise!
Bjorn, there is really no point in walking about in bright sunshine and hoping to see vampires. Just make sure you get back before dark. And keep away from bloodthirsty politicians. Even Dracula is afraid of those monsters.
Look how beautiful Romania is!
Here, in Phoenix AZ USA, hikers are rescued year round on our mountain trails due to heat related illness. Heat is no joke.
You need a large brimmed hat sir.
Welcome to Romania, my friend!
Too bad I didn't know you are coming, it would have been a great honor to meet you!
Maybe next time! Although I'm not from the mountains, my home is your home anytime!
We also have amazing views and many exciting things to do outdoors here on the banks of the Danube, where I live.
Oh... and by the way: don't worry about vampires, the don't like Viking blood anyway! Your flesh is too hard and tough for them! :D
It is really beautiful, but you know what? I prefer Norway! Been to a national park today, and though we had about 19 degrees, it still felt soooo warm! Just about enough for me!😉
Gorgeous, endless, God's creation
Wow! Some of those trees were simply magical. Thank you for sharing! 🤩
Norwegian-Idahoan here working outside in °110F+ degree weather for half the day... The other half in a stainless steel box at °135F. It's brutal on us Northern boys
It's been incredibly hot in Northwestern Oregon where I live.
I'm enjoying your content thoroughly. I can relate to your aversion to heat. I'm in Florida looking after my 93 yr old Father and I will never live in a sub tropical climate again. I love the mountains and plan to go back West to the Sierra's. But my family is out of Pennsylvania of German and Hungarian descent. One area I plan to see is Hungary, Romania and Slovenia looks beautiful. I did spend 4 years in Aschaffenburg, Bayern in the Army and after.I really enjoyed living there and will revisit. I also have a friend in Finland I will see and maybe one in Wales. I didn't know before today you lifted weights. I am just getting back into it but have done it most my life. I also never took steroids and I think my best bench was 365lb at 51. What types of novels do you write. One of my favorites is Sarem. I started reading Louis L'Amour as a kid but my favorites from him weren't Westerns. I liked The Walking Drum and The Last of a Breed.
I love being hot more than being cold. In Arizona it works out. Also being nude with a hat & shoes on is heavenly
It’s 92 degrees in Florida today w humidity making it feel like 97 ☀️ beautiful view 😍
I am also not made for high temperatures. It feels like the heat stays inside and accumulates. Greetings from Switzerland.😊
Welcome to Romania. Since you visited Transylvania, why not visit the other Romanian regions next time? They are also very beautiful.😊
du gjorde det bra mann. det se ut hard! 👊
Romania is such a wonderful country with a long, ancient history and people always happy for guests. Villages, rural areas are the best places to find traditional artefacts, food and great landscape!
Welcome to my country and my lands. I am glad you hiked these lands.
The heat will get you ........ Beautiful area, just beautiful !!!!
I wish we had that heat in the UK. Right now we've strong, cold winds & rain showers, and I'm debating whether to get my woodstove burning.
My kind of lovely place, same here in the uk and around the world, what a lovely🌍 we live on 😊
Thank you for visiting our ancestors lands!!! Greetings from Hungary!!!
Come hiking here in the Australian summer that will toughen you up my friend :-)
Greets from Sicily! Mange tak få besoge min land! ❤
I am so mad at Paly, that he did not tell me he would tour you around. would have loved to meet you in person and discuss some of your topics at a nice campfire with a gulash and beers. 🙏🏼🙏🏼😉😉
Welcome to my country! I hope you enjoy the trip!
I had planned to take a grand nephew of mine on a mountain hike with a possible overnighter this summer...but did another facedive on bicycle, just before starting my vacation. Swollen knee may effectively have put a stop to those plans.
Hiking in scorching heat...well, I'd prefer lower temps myself
Just saw the name. Does the mountain have e preferred pronouns?
Looks like fun.
Amazing place ❤ beautiful...thanks for the walk...
I definitely prefer a winter hike. I can go so much further and there are no snakes or bugs. Of course, I live in a place where it doesn’t snow often.
Prefer the Cold Weather as well! Heat is awful!
Thank you for sharing your adventure with us. Beautiful.
🧛♂️
glad to see u in my home country and region. hope u enjoy it
What a beautiful view and experience Björn despite the difference of heat 😅. Wish I could have joined you , what a view an such nature ✨🙏🏻 hälsningar från Sverige
No vampires because it’s the daytime!
