Your channel is def a contribution to the greater good ! All this beauty showing up on my I pad. At 88 with reduced mobility, this is how I travel. Because of you I am back, with my late husband, in Schotland, in Loch Ness ! I am Dutch so that was nice to hear !! I have lived in Ca over 40 years because of my American husband. Still a little homesick for Holland and Europe sometimes. So I thank you for your beautiful video and for your channel !!

I have always loved Scotland and greatly enjoyed my two visits there. Lately I have had a lot of health issues that have made walking very difficult. Finding your videos has given me the opportunity to enjoy seeing the beautiful views and traveling the highlands vicariously through you and Brian. For that, I am truly grateful.

I love your thoughtful reflections, Crystal. Must have been nice to get away from the level and experience the 'up' @ 15:30 (and beyond) - Always good views from the top unless you're in a cloud! Oh to be a bird looking down upon that awesome landscape.... Not that a bird appreciates such a thing. Lol. 17:38 Majestic music befitting the majestic scenery.

Your videos are always of value and making them makes you selfless because it’s a huge effort to film so that you can share your adventures and thoughts with us. I have no idea why your channel hasn’t boomed more, you’re one of my favourite KZbinrs and you deserve to be successful, you’re so open, giving and creative xx

I’ve only got to 6:44 (and am going to carry on watching) but just had to stop and say that your video have actually inspired me to do a trek. I’ll wait til next spring to do the West Highland Way but have started training for the South Downs Way. So thank you! (And ignore the negative voices and comments) xxx

Your authenticity both on the Camino and west highland way and this path, is refreshing. It must be a vulnerable feeling putting yourself and thoughts out there to the world. You do it well. It’s inspiring to watch. ( I just did Leon to Santiago) last spring. ☺️you both are contributing.

Thank you :) Sometimes it feels like KZbin is therapy - it helps me move through a lot of BIG emotions and when I feel scared to travel alone I remember you all are on the other side of the camera and I feel so much better.

One of my friends did an exchange teaching position in Scotland for a year and found it helpful when he used the Duolingo language app to learn Scottish Gaelic 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 in order to help with his pronunciation. The Scottish parents got a kick out of his Canadian style pronunciation so he tried this. As for taking the Camino and wondering what value we bring to others, it made me think that it’s too bad most politicians don’t walk the Camino and ponder what actual value they bring to others and think about being less selfish and materialistic. The value you bring dear Crystal is immeasurable in my view!❤️
@vanhallaadventures
@vanhallaadventures Жыл бұрын
That is a great idea! I will look at Duolingo and Babbel. I can't hear pronunciation very well but if I SEE it on paper spelled out like how it sounds it makes more sense. I want to get better but it is not a natural talent of mine. MMM I love that - Mandatory Camino for all politicians! Thank you Brigid :)

The Lagan to Fort Augustus leg really challenged me mentally. I didn’t know about the diversion, so what I had read about as a mostly flat day turned out to be not so much (except the long slog post Bridge of Oich) and longer than I was prepared for. Plus it rained all day!

Here is the sweater: www.quince.com/women/cashmere/cashmere-sweatshirt?color=heather-grey&gender=women&tracker=collection_page__women__all-products__39 Here is the pant: www.quince.com/women/cashmere/cashmere-sweatpants?color=black&tracker=landingPage__search_section__search_results I would suggest sizing UP in the pant if you want them longer as they are short. I wear them on travel days and I always feel great and don't stink after long-haul flights. I swear by them! You can wash them too when traveling. They shrink ever-so-slightly but stretch back out. I also think these are cute but I am super short but was thinking of giving it a try this Fall: www.quince.com/women/mongolian-cashmere-straight-leg-pant?color=navy&gender=women&tracker=collection_page__women%2Fsweatshirts%2Fcashmere-sweats__Cashmere%20Sweats__0

She is using mole skin or something similar at 8:50, but in the Army, we always carried a roll of duct tape. Goes a long way. Stays put on your heel or toes or wherever you need it. Easy to peel off. Can last for days including in the shower or out or if your feet get wet. Very effective. Save some money and time. Get a roll of duct tape.
