This will be a channel of my daily events and opinions.
For almost 40 years I have felt no need or desire to share my life with strangers. I do not even own a smart phone. Never have and hopefully never will. I find everyone staring at their screens all day and only communicating over the internet sad and disappointing. I get strange looks when I try to talk to somebody out in public now. I believe smart phones will come to be known as the worst invention of the 21st century. I miss the days before them. Perhaps I am just old.
That being said, I decided to become a hypocrite and start filming what I do. I am quite boring on my own as I do not like to make a scene or be obnoxious. I have manners and do not make others listen to my music or such things. When with certain other people I become witty and interesting. Hopefully I am able to make entertaining videos of this. I am new to video editing as well so please be patient as I learn the ropes.

Aerial View of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from Al-Faisaliyah Tower
Edited and reuploaded:
Going through my backlog of raw footage and got this from 2019. Recorded from my work phone. Simply a view of Riyadh from a skyscraper in the center of the city on the last day of November 2019.
Al-Faisaliyah tower is a 267m(876ft) skyscraper that is recognizable due to its globe near the top which is a restaurant, cafe, and cigar bar. It was Saudi Arabia's first skyscraper and is currently the third tallest in the country.

Beginner paragliding in beautiful Tannheim, Austria
zhlédnutí 69Před 2 lety
My only flight in lovely Tannheim because I didn't have my certification with me and the gondola staff check, refusing me entry to the gondola the second time I tried. A shame really as it is a perfect place for beginners to practice and learn. At least I was able to sneak on once.
First paragliding flights(and crash) at Germany's tallest mountain
zhlédnutí 141Před 2 lety
My second and third flights since finishing Club Pilot certification. The day was gorgeous but I wasn't. Out of two flights I had the two worst take-off's I have ever had(it was the most shallow run I have used). One landing was good but far from the landing zone and the other was a high rate of descent resulting in a crash.
A Quick Walk Through Verbier, Switzerland with a Thunderstorm

A walk from Le Châble, through Verbier, and back before, during, and after a thunderstorm. I timed it perfectly to take shelter at Vinabagnes restaurant right as the downpour began. It is a cozy little place right at the main roundabout that serves wine(obviously), snails, and fancy little meals. I got the charcuterie board which had a nice selection of meats but only one cheese, though it was ...

Two Perfect Days in Linkoping, Sweden

A quick trip and look about in Linkoping, Sweden. A lovely city that I enjoyed thoroughly. It is Sweden's fifth biggest city with a population of about 165,000. Home to the aircraft maker Saab and a university of about 18,000 students. The university is testing an autonomous bus around campus which is quite hilarious as it trundles along slower than a person crawling, but I suppose we all must ...

First Time Sandboarding - Red Sand Dunes - Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
zhlédnutí 942Před 2 lety
First time sandboarding with two of my friends in Saudi Arabia. Red Sand Dunes is a fairly large area of sand about an hour drive outside Riyadh. Very popular for a day out but bloody hot in the summer. This was a day out in February and it was still quite hot. Africans rent out all manner of quads. They come to you and haggle over price. A year before this my friend and I rented some large qua...
2021-Cycling Hungary from Gárdony to Lake Balaton to the Austrian Border
zhlédnutí 177Před 2 lety
An impromptu ride when I had a free week in Hungary. I took the train from Budapest to Gárdony, rode around the Southern side of Balaton Lake to the Austrian border, and then took the train back to Budapest. The weather was perfect and there were no crowds. I didn't have my GoPro cameras or external microphone so the video and sound quality aren't great. My apologies for that.
Daytrip Cycling Lake Balaton in Hungary 2020
zhlédnutí 309Před 3 lety
A time-lapse cycle ride around the north shore of Lake Balaton in Hungary. Balaton lake is the largest lake of Europe and a great place to visit during the summer. The water is a bit too warm as it is quite a shallow lake but there are plenty of activities. From the relaxing and pretty hill peninsula of Tihany on the North shore to the party town of Siófok on the South shore which hosts huge fe...
Riyadh to Bahrain Road Trip for New Years
zhlédnutí 503Před 3 lety
Driving solo from Riyadh to Bahrain to watch the fireworks and enjoy some delicious beer for the end of 2019. It was a huge risk as there is nothing but sand between the two places and the car I took was a poorly maintained piece of junk that I had gotten a year earlier and only half fixed. Sadly the hotel where I was staying was quite far from the fireworks but it was still quite enjoyable due...

plum flavoured unicum is kinda nice tho, and the riserva. the original is awful.
Having trouble charging manfrotto for first time. Usb cord plugged in, flashes a quick green light two times then off and nothing...any suggestions?
Safest one too!
Nice one on Linköping 😎
Researching for my upcoming trip to Slovakia. This was very useful. Thanks!
Unicum is good to drink when someone is frozen from the cold.
Any new videos this summer? Last upload was 8 months ago. I think I'll go paragliding again.

At what time of the year did you do the hike.
I have the same question!
then diarrhea
You're email isn't working. This is Jayson.
Any new videos coming up? Will you go paragliding again this summer?
You didn’t need music. It spoiled the video for me.
Very nice tour, this park is amazing my friend! 💚✨
I hope now you realize there are possibilities beyond your comprehension.
I should ratehr say, take your time, before you sacrifice yourself of your choosen believefs.
You might never read this, but I appreciate your time. Thanks, I enjoyed watching your videos.
My first time in Poland last month, Krakow, and I swear a restaurant made me wait 15 minutes to pay the bill, I was just sitting there in consternation. I did like the city though, been wondering, would you recommend Poland or Hungary as a place to stay long term?
Wow, thanks for sharing it, it was like having a ride with your friend! I am supposed to move there soon, looking for such videos all over CZcams :)
great weather, your english is like a polish guy after 5 beers talking in english
Nice video. I'm wondering how many people like the color brown and being covered in dust by the end of the day.
Maybe they're just building these towers for aesthetics😂
Could be. It is by far the nicest part of the city.
And if you don’t like riyadh or Saudi or the Coulter in general leave
Thank you for the advice. I don't know why I didn't think of that. There are some things I enjoyed in Saudi Arabia and some I didn't. Riyadh is a flat, hot, ugly desert. That is a fact. People like you that don't respect other peoples opinions and observations are the worst.
@@davidbatguano9244 Hey! For what its worth, I like your video, the commentary was just nicely put. Keep em coming
And about king abdullah district they just done working from this area and right now they working to put restaurant in there and they still working for the Huge metro station .
Wtf you mean a ghost skyscraper city ?? Am from riyadh btw
It has been empty for over 10 years. Maybe even 15 years. And it has skyscrapers. That is why I call it a ghost skyscraper city.
Nice first landing 😁 second is...... heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeuuu.... 🤣. Good Job man😇
I had to watch this video a second time to watch your crash landing part, which is easier to imagine now that you told me the history of how it happened.
I've been waiting for this video to come.
Vertigo?
No, not at all. Just a basic fear of heights.
Awesome. Where is this? Switzerland?
Garmisch in Germany.
Nice Video Brooooo........
That trail is amazing. It looks like cobblestone road. They turned all stones with their flat side up. Autobahn in the sky.
It was incredible. Such a well-maintained trail. I really appreciate all the work the locals put in to maintain their trails.
I just got back from my fourth visit to Budapest, the boat buses weren't running, and I forgot about this video, otherwise I would of found that spot and took the ride, always enjoyed the views from the river.
Bummer you missed out on the hydrofoil. So much fun.
@@davidbatguano9244 Was walking and using public transport quite a lot, and women were staring at me as usual, not a player though, but it's certainly one of those parts of the world were women find me more attractive. It is the same with you? The local guys say it's because they like darker skinned men and they can tell I'm from a wealthy country, not really there for ass, business mostly, but can't help but wonder about it.
Aw man, stunning scenery. Where is this? Switzerland?
The Swiss and French border region.
Nice video!
Thank you.
When's your next video coming out?
I just finished hiking across Ireland and will work on editing some videos the next few weeks. I'm considering making my own webpage instead of posting here so I can add photos.
Dreher is the best hungarian beer 🍺 IMHO.
I love your honesty. Where you based at now, David?
Hiking across Ireland at the moment. Should take about a month.

My memory is fading badly :D It was 2021.
@@davidbatguano9244 Maybe you just got used to saying 2020 because that year felt like it lasted forever.
Finally, you posted a new video!
How did you blur their faces out so easily? I need to learn that effect.
Adobe Premiere Pro does it almost automatically. It is impressive.
When's your next video coming?
I am working on them slowly. I have been travelling almost non-stop for the past year so I have a lot of raw footage, but I need to get to editing. Hopefully one of an RV trip in the USA within a week or two.
Wow, people don't half walk and cycle fast in Hungary!
Hungry to slovaika how many hours joureny by bus
Your sounding like a tour guide.
Just trying different things to see what works. A lot more difficult in a video than real life though because there is no feedback from other people.
@@davidbatguano9244 Felt you might be practicing for that job, are the tourists back in Hungary yet? Some recent video's seems to show its picking up.
I spent a holiday there in the seventies with my parents. I must have been around 8 years old at the time. I can clearly remember the ski jump. They were jumping on the grass during the summer. Thanks for posting this videu
Great to have you back.
Thanks Simon. Been travelling a lot. Now to sit down and get to editing. Have quite a bit of footage to get through.
The train said watch the hell out. 😆
You're back. I thought you'd given up on your channel. This was filmed this year? So you're back in Europe now?
@@MarksWorldOfAdventure Just been travelling a lot. I am actually in Chicago now and going to hike for the winter in Chile soon.
Hi David, nice trip and nice video. Cycling path Bratislava-Komarno is the longest cycle path in Slovakia. What is the name of the hotel where you stayed in Bratislava?
Marrol's Boutique Hotel Bratislava. I recommend it.
Where did you keep your bike while you were staying in the hotel ?
Right inside the door blocking half the hallway. The owner showed me where. He was very nice about it.
@@davidbatguano9244 thanks . I'm planning a trip to Bratislava myself too and I was wondering how can you make sure you're bike is at a safe place
@@nemethdaniel2000 Oh, my response was for the Komarno hotel. The hotel in Bratislava had a parking garage with space for bicycles.
