I have traveled extensively in my career, and I found that even the poorest of people will welcome you. It’s hard to understand at times how our world can be so unpleasant. I am really proud of what you are doing Alex, and wish you every success in your ventures. 👏👏
Quite new to the channel. I had no idea I was interested in van conversion, bee keeping, mushroom foraging and all the other stuff you do, turns out I am haha! Love the range of things you do. Keep em coming and take care on your travels mate.
I really enjoy your episodes...it is humbling to see a young man with so much maturity. You make me laugh wholeheartedly with your good humor! Like the whistling for grandma, like one would a dog.... Right? Those mushrooms look amazing.
If you want a halfway bike between road and mountain I can highly recommend a gravel bike, specifically a British made Sonder Camino from Alpkit. I love mine, it can go practically anywhere but it’s still good on road. If you want practical storage I’m not sure about baskets but they do loads of good bags (crossbar, stem, handlebar or stem mounted).
Such a strange and nice feeling that you went pass my home on the way to Prague. Hope you enjoyed your stay in Czech republic. Thanks for great videos, have a nice day Alex...
Hey Alex. It sure is great to see complete strangers treating you so well. Not to mention the friendship and memories you're making along the way. The scenery is absolutely stunning! Great video Alex I look forward to the next one. Cheers
Thanks, Alex. Great video. I really enjoyed all the new people you have met. Great scenery in Czech Republic. Looking forward to the next video. Your pancakes looked like crepes - kind of thin but delicious!
I’ve only recently started watching your adventures Alex in the last month and really enjoying following you. You are brilliant at sharing what you’re up to. Look forward to what’s to come next
Absolutely love Czech food, and the people! Prague is probably my favourite European city, although I’ve stayed in Pilzen too and visited the same brewery. We were over for the world trials bike championship!
This was so enjoyable to watch Alex. It’s great to see you meet up with lovely local people, who have been both hospitable and taken you around to visit places and do things. The food looks so appetising, it has made me feel hungry lol Looking forward to watching more of your adventures. Travel safely 😁👍🏻
Another great video. And you got me fancying pancakes in the morning. I am from the Northwest of England and pancake recipe in my area is simple, one cup of flour, one cup of milk and one egg. Its quite a thick batter but makes nice thick fluffy pancakes.
Wow Alex this adventure is so good, like you said in the video meeting all these new people and how they have all really looked after you is very heartwarming 👏👍
European hospitality there for you, folks! Alex singlehandedly showing the world is full of likeminded people who will gladly share meals with you and make a connection.
I use a carpfishing sleeping bag where i sleep in naked to 0°c easy. Only my head gets cold and i wear something warm on it. If it gets colder than freezing point , i wear pj's or clothes. I dont have a heater with me
Great to be living precariously through you and your adventures 😊, gets me out of the wheelchair in my imagination. Thanks 🙏🏻 so much 😊❤, love, Kirsty Holland 🦽xx
Hi Alex, thanks for your latest video. It was very enjoyable to watch, as usual. Your pancakes looked delicious😋 You must try it with cinamon in addition to lemon juice and sugar...SO GOOD! Take care and safe travels.
I've changed the milk I have in my coffee to oatly since a year back, and I actually think it tastes better! Glad you are getting sponsors to help keeping you going so we get to enjoy these videos.
As someone who works in a bike shop I would recommend a hybrid or older mountain bike. Both of them are relatively light and will work on road and on gravel. The mountain bike will have better tires and suspension for rough terrain but this will slow it down on the roads. I wouldn't recommend something high tech with full suspension or disk brakes because this then becomes complicated and heavy but overall it comes down to how much time you spend on/off road. Hope this helps!
Mans eating like a king! Watch them portions Alex you will need to upgrade the suspension on the van lol. Great vlogs mate. Love and respect from Koh Samui Thailand.
I lived a good part of my life in Europe and now living in US . I invited many friends to dare visit Europe but they are so frightened. You proved them wrong!
Watch your drinking and driving! Would hate for you to be in an accident you'll never forget! Amazing as ever, so easy and enjoyable to watch already excited for the next one 👍👍👍
Wow good luck to u Alex on your new adventure. 👍 Pancakes looked good! Wish I had your knowledge of mushrooms.. Take care, stay safe! Alex. ☮️ 😋Looking forward to your next video. 😋👍🐌
Evening my friend 🫶🏻 How amazing are the people you meet on your travels. In a time when all you hear is bad news, it’s wonderful to have our faith in human nature restored by each video you post ❤️
You need to install a diesel heater in your van mate, game changer! I've put one in my trafic to keep the back warm for the dogs (I have a dog business)
A gravel bike that you could gear towards a touring bike is a really nice marriage between mountain bikes and road/commuter bikes. I just got one at the tail end of September and I'm loving the ability to ride at decent pace on the road but be able to take bike paths and dirt/gravel/rocky-ish trails. you can definitely find some affordable entry level bikes that you can add upgrades overtime, or pay a little extra for those upgrades already installed. also it might be worth seeking out your local bike shop back home, that way you can get a bike that's tailored to your needs and specs as well as a go-to for any sudden repair needs...or upgrades if you don't feel wholly confident (I'm getting mine to switch my tires to run tubeless tomorrow so i don't get flats as much) really enjoying this series, and it'll be cool to see some possible bike touring/bikepacking or just plain old bike riding in future videos to come.
Another great video. I am getting jealous and planning my own trip now lol. You should definitely visit Poland next time, you were so close. In Poland you can find amazing places for fishing and mushrooms too. Take care and have a safe trip 👍
Look into gravel bikes, alex. They are pretty much the baby of a mountain bike and a road bike. just get one that has a decent, solid frame. anything else on a bike can be fixed but a frame cracking is game over.
Excellent video Alex 👍 The first pancake is never the best one in a new batch. Have to go with Lemon and Sugar on my pancakes. Hope you're well and enjoying your travels. Stay safe.
Hi fellow Caddy Camper! I'm really enjoying following your journey on here and it's nice to see that it's possible to be sociable while on the road as well. If you're thinking about getting a bike then I think you should get a hybrid, so you can use it both on and off road! I've got a Specialized hybrid, it's really good. Can't wait to see what you get up to in Berlin :)
almost 28,000 views and only 2000 likes? thats shocking from the people taht view and follow this. Thank you Alex for keeping me entertained whilst on your travels.
Hi Alex, a gravel bike would be a good half way meet between road bike and mountain bike. Its like a road bike but with larger wheels and a longer frame so you can take it off road. Loads on the market.
Gravel Bikes might suit you. They have road bike geometries and work for offroad travel & bikepacking. You can add all kinds of bags and maybe even a basket 😊
Good morning, hope you are well. You could have added the honey to pancake mix which I am sure you have tried already, I usually add syrup to the mix and put more on afterwards, I also prefer sweet pancakes Lush. Love your videos. Michelle. Scotland.

Thanks! :)
Don't forget most of these countries have wild animals such as bears which can be very dangerous, they can smell food from miles away. Be careful.
@@just_alex hi Alex not sure if this is ligit but did you message me regarding winning some camping gear?
Replies from Telegram are scammers trying to get your information.
@@clarissategido5154Its a scam
Amazing how complete strangers are so welcoming to you and your travels. Must be nice to know there are people like that when you are travelling solo

What very kind, generous the people who helped you along on your trip of Europe. Czech Republic is beautiful. Safe journey Alex.

They certainly know how to look after their guests 👌🏻

Nothing like a warm cup of coffee in the morning and one of your movies! Heading for 100k subs it seems, gogogo 🙂
this episode is really good
So nice what you are doing Alex...I wish I could do that...good to see you meeting great people a long the way 🥰
Brilliant video Alex - just enjoyed with a coffee back here in the UK. All the best!
Top notch again Alex. Keep on adventuring!! Looking forward to the next one!!
Videos are getting better day by day , good luck for the road trip brother ❤️🛣️

As always 🔥...Great watch as always can't wait for the next..👌

Another ace video Alex, boxed off with some quality singing to Stand By Me at the end, might I add! 😁
*terrible singing 😂 thanks though!
Entertaining though mate! 😂👍🏼
Nice to see you landing some sponsored content mate! Keep up the vanlife and sending you heaps of positive vibes from over here in Australia
Very interesting and very well made video.
You really are in your element.
Love seeing the adventures in your van especially when they involve mushrooms
You are authentic and fun to watch
Watch your drinking and driving! Would hate for you to be in an accident you'll never forget!
Amazing as ever, so easy and enjoyable to watch already excited for the next one 👍👍👍
Nice one Alex - bee safe squirrel - Oatly - ❤love it, been using it for years
Also for the coffee's - a must is the "Barista Oatly" it comes in Black packaging - Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy
Always look forward to your latest video Alex. Keep doing what you're doing. 👍
i love how people are welcoming and inviting to you Alex 😍
Great vid! A gravel bike would be a good medium between road and offroad.
Alex, no wonder people are nice to you. Remeber, you get what you give ;-) And you're giving joy to people ;-) Greetings from Slovakia.
Thank you! 😊
Wow good luck to u Alex on your new adventure. 👍 Pancakes looked good! Wish I had your knowledge of mushrooms.. Take care, stay safe! Alex. ☮️ 😋Looking forward to your next video. 😋👍🐌

AWSOME video as always!
Lovely video again. Excited to see when you'll be arriving at the Netherlands😉
Whistling for the Grandma 🤣🤣🤣
Get a gravel bike Alex - you can get a flat bar or drop bar version but they’re super versatile! The Swiss Army knife of a bike!
You need to install a diesel heater in your van mate, game changer!
I've put one in my trafic to keep the back warm for the dogs (I have a dog business)
I was just checking comments before I wrote this.
I’ve been waiting patiently for more videos! Keep up the amazing content Alex!🔥
Great video as always Alex, happy to see you enjoy Europe!
During the pancake making i like how you used the bowl to pour into the pan, but had a jug right next you ready to go. 🤣👌

really enjoying this series, and it'll be cool to see some possible bike touring/bikepacking or just plain old bike riding in future videos to come.
Its the life experience, making memories
Coypu are related to the North American Muskrat. Enjoyed the video wish I could turn back time and do all this exciting travelling.
You are a very good storyteller. I am learning as I was entertained. Thank you for sharing... 😊
Depends what surface you want to ride. But for convenience, and perfect for storage in your van; it’s got to be a Brompton.
Not often one to comment on RUclips, but I adore this series... I envy you, but enjoy living through these videos until I can afford to travel myself
Get a minus 20 deg or minus 40 deg F bag, and you'll always be warm (or even too hot!). Your videos are so entertaining and peaceful!
Better off gettinf a diesel heater
Another great video. I am getting jealous and planning my own trip now lol. You should definitely visit Poland next time, you were so close. In Poland you can find amazing places for fishing and mushrooms too. Take care and have a safe trip 👍
Look into gravel bikes, alex. They are pretty much the baby of a mountain bike and a road bike. just get one that has a decent, solid frame. anything else on a bike can be fixed but a frame cracking is game over.
Excellent video Alex 👍
The first pancake is never the best one in a new batch.
Have to go with Lemon and Sugar on my pancakes.
Hope you're well and enjoying your travels.
Stay safe.
Hi fellow Caddy Camper!
I'm really enjoying following your journey on here and it's nice to see that it's possible to be sociable while on the road as well.
If you're thinking about getting a bike then I think you should get a hybrid, so you can use it both on and off road! I've got a Specialized hybrid, it's really good. Can't wait to see what you get up to in Berlin :)
Hey man, the combo between a MTB and a road bike is a GRAVEL BIKE!
It has the frame of a road bike, but higher ground space, and wider tires
Loving the journey, Alex!
I'm glad you're being spoilt by friendly people... Glad you started to get sponsors... Looking forward to Berlin adventure
Awesome. I hate mushrooms 🤮, not much into fishing but I found this fascinating. Keep it up and enjoy the ride 🤙
almost 28,000 views and only 2000 likes? thats shocking from the people taht view and follow this. Thank you Alex for keeping me entertained whilst on your travels.
Well done again Alex another very good video, stay safe catch you in the next one👍👍
Hello I'm from the Philippines who watching your blogs as always I enjoy watching you..take care as always
How can I send u messages sir in what account pls u can send messages to my fb account pls and thank u so much🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for the video Alex 😊

Loved the whole video but the singing at the end 👌😜 great vid as always Alex 👌👍
Sorry, I should have cut that out haha
@@just_alex no glad you kept it in gives us the real Alex 😁
Alex if you’re looking for a bike search for either a gravel bike or a hardtail of sort. Would recommend a 27.5” or 29” wheel size as they roll better
I bet your natural cream is bang on, honey oat cream is awesome flavor for it, pancakes are lovely!
Love your content Alex, be nice to see you do some fishing again 🙏
Gravel Bikes might suit you. They have road bike geometries and work for offroad travel & bikepacking. You can add all kinds of bags and maybe even a basket 😊
Love your channel Alex I would have loved a life like yours tho I would need a Bigger Camper Van all my very best Simon from the UK 👍🇬🇧
Nice update video Alex! 👊🏻💪🏻👍🏻
Yes been waiting ages for another update 🎉🎉
A gravel bike is what you would be looking for, it’s perfect 👍🏼
Good morning, hope you are well. You could have added the honey to pancake mix which I am sure you have tried already, I usually add syrup to the mix and put more on afterwards, I also prefer sweet pancakes Lush. Love your videos. Michelle. Scotland.
Finally!another episode, yay!!!
