Q&A from Andorra (GR11, Pyrenees, Thru-Hiking

in this video, I answer some questions about GR11 trail, Pyrenees, and thru-hiking in general. Right now I'm about 1/3 done with the full 820km GR11 trail, and I'm taking a rest day in Andorra to give this update.

The video starts lagging at about 18m, but the audio is fine. Uploading/editing from my phone has it's ups and downs, haha. I'l re-upload a video without issues when I return home. Thanks and enjoy!

[@Tippet76]

Thank you for answering my post. Good luck Brother.

[@GeorgieTTT]

Excellent videos, Really helpful.
I’m planning my first long hike starting in July on the gr10. From what you understand, how different is the gr10 to the gr11?

[@CaptainCamp]

Great European insights 😎👍

[@nalgasone]

Fun fact, yeah it started raining 😂🤘

[@phil.clarke]

Do you need insurance? Health insurance? Insurance in case you need mountain rescue? Here in the UK we don't need this - local volunteer mountain rescue teams will help, assisted by coastguard/airforce/police and we have the free NHS.

[@OscarHikes]

Yeah you definitely need insurance for mountain rescue in Spain. I believe there was an austrian alpine club or something, which was about 100 eur per year and covered mountain rescue all over europe. I just got a local travel insurance that covered this.

[@innergoof19]

Health insurance is a human right, which much of the world except the for-profit USA has already figured out. So I'm guessing he's got that covered. Interesting that there's "alpine rescue" insurance. Coverage for everything!
