Adventure Elliot is a bilingual travel vlogger (English and Spanish) with a particular interest in the Spanish speaking world. I enjoy taking adventures - big or small - and my goal is to show the Spanish speaking world 1 video at a time.
The goal of my channel is simple yet complex: I want to document and share authentic & educational content of anything related to Adventure Travel, Geography, & Language in the Spanish-speaking world. It's kind of a loaded topic, but it allows me to never exhaust my creative outlets. The truth is, I've always been extremely passionate about what I'm doing on my channel, but I never properly documented it when I started adventuring as a younger man in my college years. I've made over 150 KZbin videos in both English and Spanish, and I have aspirations to make 1000s more. If that sounds interesting to you, join the community and follow me along the way.. After all, we're just getting started.

Wow... This area of Galicia is very interesting to me especially the area of LUGO. My last name is LUGO and I believe that my family name originated somewhere around there. My father was born in SAN GERMÁN PUERTO RICO.( 1933-2002 ) I am a 66 year old N.Y.C. 🇵🇷 born and raised in the Bronx. My dad was had more of a TAINO INDIAN AND MY MOTHER ( 1934 - 2002 ) and was born in MARICAO, PUERTO RICO and had more of a FEATURES OF A SPANIARD. I am an American Expat living in the Philippines 🇵🇭. I married a Filipina in 2019 and my wife LOVES my SPANIARD FEATURES ( SOY BLANCO CON OJOS VERDE ). I hope to travel someday to LUGO, SPAIN someday.... Thanks for sharing Amigo, safe travels.

Galician here. The palms planted in front of the houses was, traditionaly, a symbol of a Indian house, meaning someone that went to South America and came back. I don´t think nobody in galicia likes the eucalypthos, it is an invaside specie planted by the wood industry and it destroys the natural habitat of the native trees like Carballos (oaks) and wild pine trees. Eucalipthos are also one of the reasson why there are this uncontrolable fires that we are suffering every two or three years here, including this year 2022 where they have to evacuate a town the same day I´m writting this :( The horreo had this legs so the rats do not eat the grain. You also past through a cruceiro at 5:00 which is also a tipical galician structure that historically referred to a crossroad, with the christian cross on the top because in medieval times, bandits use to lurk on the crossroads to rob people, so it was an attempt to make the road somehow protected by Jesus or something. It´s always a pleasure to have someone showing our culture and our way of living man ! Cheers

@@edstar83 actually the Galician language comes from Galician-Portuguese, which spread south with the expansion of the Christian Reconquest. So we can't say that Portuguese evolved from Galician, or vice versa. There was in fact an archaic phase, during the Middle Ages, called Galician-Portuguese, which came to be the language spoken on both banks of the Minho river.

I live in Galicia. I'm American, but Galicia is my chosen home. I love the video, but it was disappointing to hear you have so many lovely interactions with the locals, then go on to say that despite that, Galicians are known to be unfriendly compared to other Spaniards. That has not been my experience at all. As a foreigner living here, I've been humbled to tears on many occasions at the kindness, helpfulness and openness of Galegos. I love them and hate for people to believe that if they come here, they would be met with suspicion or unfriendliness.

@@tatianaschoenfield9819 We are not really that reserved, we are just too "to the point" for a lot of cultures. People think we are harsh sometimes but we just tend to not sugarcoat anything, so when someone comes and takes his time to get to the point (which is the common way of speaking in most places) it's probably going to get a "yeah, but what do you really want?" stare because tha's a suspicious way of talking here, you are hiding your true intentions (the question itself). It goes both ways for when we want to say a good thing, like the old woman who just said "Tonecho(name), this guy is lovely, come talk to him", straight to the point even when complimenting him. A simple example: "hey, do you know a place to eat?" to a complete stranger will have 100% of our atention and help. "hey, hi, I'm Lucas, I'm traveling from Vasque Country to Santiago and I'm exhausted already, would you know a place to stay and relax around here?" will have a "what do you really want?" look until the "Would you know a place to...." because we just don't use that way of comunication, it sounds suspicious to us. That's why we are famous for replying with another question. Because if things are not very clear, if we don't trust the question, we will use our own safety net which is asking to be sure.

I truly enjoyed your video. My father was born in O'Grove, located in Galicia. When I travel to visit family in O'Grove, it takes several days for my brain to decipher the Galician speech and cadence. The language is a mixture of Spanish, Portuguese and a sprinkle of French. The area is beautiful and the people are friendly, but guarded. I'm glad you touched on the dark side of paradise. We lost a cousin (over 30 years ago) to a heroin overdose. Back then, the Spanish coast was largely ignored for illicit cargo. Today most of the drugs are trafficked in larger metropolitan areas. Thanks.

@@@ ... gracias Elliot por tu trabajo ... he estado allí y hoy he vuelto a recorrer contigo aquellos parajes ... la realidad siempre ha sido una, pero ciertamente la conocemos a través de las opiniones, las crónicas y hoy los videos ... gracias nuevamente por mostrarnos esa tierra mítica gallega de donde llevo también mi carga genética ... esa Galicia eterna que gota a gota regó nuestro continente y sembró amor y prosperidad ... Viva Galicia por siempre ... !!! ... saludos de un cubano de Miami ...

I don't hear my native tongue anymore. Being from Ezaro and away from there for so long I needed to hear this. One of the most beautiful regions of Spain.

Not below freezing? I live in the least populated part of Galicia and I can assure you it drops well below freezing in winter quite routinely. :). Condolences for your grandfather - your work does him proud.

17:14 El idioma vasco es el único idioma nativo ibérico, a mucha gente no le gusta porque tiene un toque áspero, pero yo creo que eso mismo es lo que lo hace especial. Es un tesoro prerromano y una lengua aislada que nos hace falta cuidar. Siento lo de tu abuelo, yo llevo 8 años sin mi _aitona_ , me dolió mucho porque era un día muy soleado en el que volvía muy contento a casa, la noticia fue un contraste muy gris. Un saludo a mis paisanos gallegos.

Me encanta el euskera, su sonido y sobre todo los nombres propios que tenéis. Y más me gusta ir de visita de vez en cuando, como gallego me siento prácticamente como en casa.

Hi Elliot! I'm galician too (as some other comments). Just came to say congrats, it's a real pleasure having such a nice guy comunicating our land and how good you had "studied" about the things you were gonna find here. Love your work, man. Next step: to learn galician so you can come back even better, if it was possible. By my part, here you got a new suscriber from this "magic" place

I'm originally from La Coruna, Galicia Spain . The crosses that you saw in the country side are all over. They are from the Roman times. My father was from Lugo, my great grandparents and grandparents remains are. Yes, it's amazing to see the cemetery are very small and aren't under ground. Hope you also, saw the Castro's.. That are from the Celtic times. They amazing! Thank you for sharing.. 😍❤

Cool video. My family is from Galicia and I spent most of my childhood summers there. You did a nice job of capturing the curiosity and outgoing nature of Gallego's. The closer to the cities you get the more chatty people are. I've never been to Muxia, but after seeing how beautiful it is in your video, I'll have to visit next summer.
