▬ About Us! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
We’re Blake and Eli, full-time nomads for the past three years! After meeting in 2021 while in Hawaii, we decided to completely change our lives to be together. We both worked 9-5 remotely, and knew very early on that we did not want to do that forever. So, while looking for new adventures we found a campervan in Hawaii, bought it sight unseen and fixed it up while living in it! Now we rent it out and use the income to fund some of our travels. In 2022, we began by traveling to Australia on a one way ticket! Now we love sharing all our crazy adventures on CZcams! (we are definitely huge adrenaline junkies!) And show you how you can afford to travel more!
▬ Let’s work together!! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
We are constantly looking for new avenues for our adventure and expanding our partners. Please contact us at hello@ontodaysadventure.com for inquiries!

Love that you included all the highs & lows of the entire journey. Watching you two deal with altitude sickness was rough, can't imagine experiencing it firsthand. But you guys survived and made a great video! Couple questions:
- what time of year did you go? May?
- did chewing the coca leaves not help with the altitude sickness?
- were sandals a must ?
Thank you !!!
Hi! Thank you so much, it was tough but glad we were able to show the full journey! :)
We went beginning of November so start of raining season which was ok but would’ve preferred to avoid rainy season!
The cocoa leaves helped, but I think it was just too much altitude and blake is more susceptible to it i think… we should’ve stayed in cusco one more night & brought altitude pills in case!
Sandals or some type of slides that you can put on after long days of hiking yes! also helped a lot at the hot springs!
hope that helps! thanks for watching 🥰
As always, awesome video. Blake, you should be very careful of altitude sickness; not good! I LOVE your videos!
Thank you! Altitude sickness is no joke, we will be prepared for next time 😁
great video! amazing shots
Thank you so much!
make sure to stick around to the end for a little surprise ;)
Sold. I’m doing it ❤
yesss! excited for you! :)
How were you allowed to fly your drone? I was told I couldn't
Awesome video. Also, this chick is a daytime 9.
Been wanting to do this tour/hike forever! If you could go again, do you think you'd pick the same time of year?
you definitely should do it!! we would actually try to go earlier so it’s not the start of the rainy season!
@@OnTodaysAdventure Hi. When were you there? My teen daughter and I are doing this in July. I’m wondering if it would be a bit drier then. Loooooved your video, definitely a bit scared of the altitude sickness over here.
When is the end song dropping on Spotify?😍😍
We need this!!
If you did it again, What would you change or what things in your kit would you add or take out? How would you prepare better for it
we definitely would have spent 3 nights in Cusco before hand instead of 2, just to adjust to the elevation a bit more. We also would have brought altitude pills and understood when to take them to not get super sick. Overall we felt the clothes we brought were pretty good, hiking boots and sandals are all we needed! Maybe some more short sleeves since we did get hot in some parts. We pretty much wore the same hiking pants the whole time so maybe bring less pants in general! Hope that helps :)
@@OnTodaysAdventure do you mind explaining when the 'right time' is to take altitude pills? :-) thanks for such a comprehensive video!!!
Hi, how many days you spent in cusco to acclimatise before starting the trek?
we spent 2 nights! we recommend 3+ though
@@OnTodaysAdventure Thanks!
