  • This is it! The first time my beloved 1150GS and I set tires on a whole new country. Join us as we try to find our feet in a brand new place for us, exploring, wild camping, and riding some spectacular coastal roads. This is the first day of a new adventure. Welcome to Greece.

    It is an awesome journey that you are on, Ferdia! Your skill at documenting your travels is simply fanastic. That 13th century monastery would have been late Byzantine, very late Byzantine as the Byzantine Empire did not see the dawn of the 14th century. I really wish I could have journeyed with you in this land. It would have helped bring the history that I studied to life. I have the next best thing in being able to journey with you, vicariously. Once again, thank you!

      It won't be last of the Byzantines we'll be seeing either... 🙄🤫 The pressures all mine James, I love sharing all this with people who appreciate it as much as I do, so thank you!!

    You've got a gift for storytelling and setting up the sense of adventure. 😁 Not to mention the cinematography! (I'm sure i've mentioned it before 😅) "Why is no one eating?" I've felt that panic before 😂 some days I've had what I called a sad meal, just whatever bag of crisps and a can of coke I can find in a vending machine, as I've missed the lunchtime rush cos of great riding 😅 That monastery! 😍 so tranquil! And a beautiful view for a makeshift campsite, strange that people would bee leaving their hive boxes there, wonder wasp that's about 🤔 (sorry 😂)

    You just get better and better. This is so beautiful. I think I had a smile on my face through the whole thing just appreciating the beauty and yuur expertise. The monastery is a gem. I'm trying to imagine how many artisans and artists and workers it took--and over how many years--to create it. Thanks, once again, Ferdia. Loving TTV and looking forward to ep. 3.

      I'm really happy you think so, Molly! I'm enjoying editing them, and the best is still to come (in my opinion anyways!). The monastery was beautiful, tranquil, with those stunning original frescos... 😍 part. 3 coming soon! 😉♥️

    Watching you manage this complex task amazes me. You are filming a journey while taking the journey one step at a time. As you battle the weather, the timing of sunset, finding food, fuel and camp sites. And oh yes, do not forget to look at the view!!!! Your are in Greece 🤯🤯 I think you are brave and resilliant. My favorite is always the winding ride by the sea with blue sky, hills and gorgeous music. Really enjoyed day one in Greece. Seeing you that happy was very nice. 🥰

      I remember thinking 'Joy will like this' when riding that coastal road! 😜 Happy to hear I wasn't wrong!

    Hola Ferdia! I love th÷ videos. They make me feel like I am traveling with you. The only thing that is unfortunate, is that my places on my lists continue to grow I found the monastery very interesting. I could of spent quite a bit of time there. Any graveyard s nearby? I thank you for letting me enjoy vicariously.Happy Holidays everyone.😅

    • @mollylindell6009
      @mollylindell6009 Před 7 měsíci +1

      Yes, Bill, Ferdia is getting us addicted to even more beautiful destinations. And our lists keep growing longer.

      Hi Bill! So good to hear from you ☺️ I agree, I would've stayed longer there too, but I didn't see an adjoining graveyard 🤔 It's great to know you're along for the ride, I think you'll enjoy some of the upcoming places. Mind yourself, and best wishes for the holidays 🥰

    Loved the second part. Sorry that I couldn't make it at the premiere. I watched it later during dinner time back at my apartment. At least you have a clue now how I felt when I visited the "over romanticized" Ireland. 😜

    • @unOrdinaryWorld
      @unOrdinaryWorld  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Don't worry you didn't miss anything! No premier for this one or upcoming ones, but I'll try to release them at the same time going forward. 😅
