Registrace 28. 01. 2014
Hi, I'm Markus. Join me for an epic journey around the earth without ever using a motor.
On July 13th, 2015 I got in a canoe and started paddling from Toronto, Canada. I have since trimaraned, hand-cycled, pogo-sticked, tricycled, skied, rafted, kayaked, and SUPed my way across Canada, then rowed to the U.S.A., bicycled the west coast to San Francisco, sailed across the Pacific Ocean, cycled and paddled across Southeast Asia and into Nepal...to be continued on this vlog. In over five years I have never used a single form of motorized transportation.

How he stands on ocean surface water and not drowning
Are their great white sharks in the area of the Golden Gate Bridge? I remember seeing a video from an Alcatraz tourist boat of a seal being eaten by something huge.
They likely come in there once in a while...
Golden Staff man!!! Least you know for next time. I had this infection in a country not far from the Marshall islands, Kiribati. Hit me up if you want to practice that Auzzy accent too :p
I'd jump in there with you. So many people in the comments acting like this is so dangerous is funny to me. I get that there is some risk and that not everyone is a confident swimmer. I would need a ladder though, I'm not s fit as you : )
People in general are overwhelmingly and quite irrationally afraid of the perceived unknown. Every future moment of your life is unknown.
Been 5 months without an upload, we miss your videos ❤!!!
Thanks for letting me know. I'm on pause for now while I work on a book and film. Have you watched all of the videos!? There's likely a few you've missed. :) You can join the crew on Patreon to hear more of what I'm up to if you like. Thanks
@@Routesofchange I haven’t seen them all, no. There’s some holes in my coverage. I’m excited for the film though!!
Awesome ❤ ! Keep it up ❤ !
Thank you! Will do!
This video is just man, boat, sky, sunlight, ocean. I can't picture other videos with fewer things in them (apart from maybe a padded room or a pitch black area).
Those things you describe contain an endless amount of other things within them...
Nah bro my thalassophobia is kicking in I’m even scared to swim in a 30 feet lake cause I couldn’t see the bottom you never know what’s lurking underneath
Damn . U need a ladder lol wow thats scary no life jacket lol
Great series of videos. But frankly you scare me. You need to take an Inflatable Lifejacket serious. keeping it attached all the time . unless its dead calm and the boat is not moving. could you imagine a rouge wave catching you unprepared and pitching you over the side.
I’ve experienced rogue waves on the ocean before and quite frankly I’m glad I was not attached or wearing a life jacket. I feel more able and secure being free to move without the possible restraint of a life jacket. I may not be an expert sailor but I am confident in my ability to stay on board. Some sailors are more comfortable on the dock or on a couch. Many round the world sailors are retired alcoholics in their 60’s and 70’s. I’ve got a leg and a peg up on many of em! I can imagine a world of endless possibilities and it does not scare me. 🤘
@@Routesofchange I think you are misunderstand or misinterpreting.
Did you know to sail prior to your world journey or was it learned from the other gentlemen while on the leg to the hawaii.
I learned to sail as a child from my dad on simple small boats and watching him sail a very similar boat to this, but most was learned from my friend, the boat, and the ocean on this sail.
What boat is that. It is a beautiful boat.
Alberg 30
The alberg 30 is such an amazing boat. So many owners say great things about them traveling the world. Triteia got his alberg for 2400 dollars and refit over years now he has sailed thousands of miles
Not surprised dude went his own way - that boat looked like you were in jail for 30 days - and lets just say , you have a lot of energy!
I feel like this would be so much more intense knowing how deep the water is, image swimming over the challenger deep
12,000 ft. 😀
@@Routesofchange did it feel different than swimming over say 100 feet deep of water
Don't ever be out of air in your lungs lol
You just pass by my island 🏝️ on ur way to 🇵🇼 Palau my island more closes to Palau
U don’t went to Polowat
Ever hear of sharks?
I’ve heard Hollywood and soup has helped to destroy their populations and create an irrational ocean wide fear for them. Denuh … denuh denuhghh
Dont you have a spinnaker? Flying wing and wing is geeat under a bit stronger wind whereas, the spinnaker just needs a puff of wind.
I don't believe we had a spinnaker. It's been awhile though. This was my first sail on this boat.
The broad reach is the most comfortable point of sail.
What month did you leave for Hawaii? The Pacific is usually calm. I want a Cape Horn, the Canaduan man who designed it was an extremely interesting man. He sailed naked to avoid "boat butt". People don't talk about what happens to the skin and body in general when we are out at sea for extended tines. Being crusted in salt all the time is a challenge. Carrying enough freshvwater is also a challenge. But I prefer being on the ocean everyday.
We left at the start of May. I never found the salt to be too much of a problem but I have experienced some of the worst boat butt while rowing on the ocean...
Scary I could never jump in the ocean
The perfect example of balls of steel that can float above 4000m of water. The initial music was kinda unpleasant, but very well paired.
😀
how did you determine the course that you did? It is very unusual from all the circumnavigations I have seen / read. I was really entranced with your destinations.
The wind and the fact that I needed to get the boat to her owner in Hong Kong determined the course. Cheers!
Wowww so beautiful and majestic 💫💫✨, it's just Hollywood that makes the ocean scary looks scary, putting fake big hungry sharks, and monsters now I'm 26 old and still have the thoughts that if I jumped like he did, a shark would come right after me lol, in fact, it's really inspiring and nerve calming observing this ocean
Dudeeeeeee what happened with the series???
Busy with something better. :)
So you've been at the dock in Hua Hin without issue but the customs dude in Koh Samui denied you entry?
No. He denied us exit. Thai registered boats need special permission to leave Thai waters.
Now I want to take a dip in the middle of the Pacific! Does not look that scary to me. Its just really deep and that makes it safer than shallow waters.
You look like crusaders in mideval ages
haha
33:22 this moment 😂😂@@Routesofchange
I’d probably forget how to swim
the salt helps you float!
For some reason, I thought the music was coming from the ocean😂
Hola
hola
21:45 The Kraken returns.
36:15
There is so much marine life around the Farallons best fishing I have ever had off the west coast. You couldn't even get your bait to the bottom there were so many rock fish.
Im born at that island
Special place.
Wow are you using passport? How if I'm using kayak from indonesia to thailand, should i also need to attend the embassy in malaysia? Because I'm crossing their country? Sorry I'm not good with my english
Yes I’m using a passport and yes you should clear immigration in every country you visit or risk being arrested or forcefully deported.
Do you think you could ever get used to swimming in the deep sea it would it always be unnerving?
I think you can get used to anything.
Imagine taking a dive into the ocean, and suddenly - due to some kind of current - you see your boat drifting away from you, and you cant keep up. Just imagine the amount of dispair and panic you would feel.
I have imagined that. This is why I tie a rope around my ankle when I'm alone out there...
The same sunset on 3 separate occasions? What are the odds of that! 😅 I love the whole "without motors" theme. I too love all manner of unpowered craft.
Did I use the same clip for 3 sunsets? I wouldn't usually do something like that. Oops :)
@@Routesofchange Yes, it was a recognizable sunset due to a bright orange diagonal line. I am however glad it was oversight rather than artifice. It was also quite a lovely sunset!
Bro is brave
Bro the music just makes it worse 💀😭
Just stumbled upon your channel. This is great stuff and I’m excited to watch your adventures!
Awesome! Thank you!
Next time swim in Mariana trench
this gives me anxiety
You talked about the meat might be. bad. Iam not Canadian are you talking about canned meat or fresh meat. Either way you can stomach raw fish eyes. I think some chocolate-covered roaches wouldn't be bad for the diet😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👀
I canned a bunch of stew made with lard that my buddy left onboard and I don't think I did a good job of it.
Somehow when you said you had a dream your friend left you and then it really happened I thought you were stuck on the island without a boat. This was my first time watching. Is it your boat or the other guys who left you in Hawaii?
It's his boat. He let me borrow it.:) I was stuck on the island without a boat. If you follow the episode numbers you will see more of the story.
One thing for sure you'll never have to worry about going hungry there's always some fresh clams for dinner.
😉 👍 ❤
Imagine looking down and a mouth is there
