Don't let the street dogs of the world stop you from living your dreams. *quit your job:* tinyurl.com/ybquvthv

Indigo Traveller did you ever hear about Macedonian Shepherd dog breed?

[@mellake7052]

@@user-hg2bn2cm8n Absolutely beautiful dog! Shar Planinac (Šarplaninac)

[@mandybon04]

I agree, I am so afraid of street dogs, all dogs but you cant let it stop you, love watching your vids for stories and inspiration, I really love how you show respect to all countries and cultures you visit too, happy travels dude! :)

[@ac_8015]

Ahaha im afraid of dogs and travel lots by myself. Its a fuckin nightmare😂😂 been attacked a few times, in my home country finland.

[@ahmedfarah7956]

I love so much Macedonian people and the country. I’m from Somalia. One day I will visit Macedonia 🇲🇰❤️✈️

[@mk88dejan]

Man u are a champ. Amazing you climbed Galacica mountain at your first visit of Ohrid ALONE. I don't know many would do that Amazing

[@IndigoTraveller]

Thank you Dejan! Haha I didn't really know where I was going, I just saw the mountain and went for it!

[@mk88dejan]

Hahah doesn't matter you had desire to climb it, you eve fight off the dogs hahah Come back when you can and visit as may places as you can mentioned in the comments (Y)

[@dimitarvel1441]

Macedonian definitely has a bad situation with street dogs. Even in the cities, there are a lot of them. This one time I was returning from the gym pretty late at night and I decided to jog back home because I skipped cardio that day to get back home and study. I put my headphones on and start jogging. As I was running and as a song was changing, in the middle between 2 songs I heard barking. I turned around to see 3 dogs running after me at full speed. It was too late to act tough and tell at them, they already saw me running and thought I was afraid of them so I looked for the best solution which was to climb a fence and enter someone else's house. The dogs kept barking and the owner came out and saw the situation. Luckily he had pepper spray. He sprayed the dogs and they ran away. I was still weary of the dogs tracking me down by sent or something so I didn't put my headphones on and walked home while looking over my shoulder. And this is not just 1 incident. this just happened to be the worst one. I also had another run-in with a street dog just fee months ago when I was forced to kick it. This much trouble with street dogs in a city with over 70000 people is unheard of. They started an animals shelter a few months ago but that didn't help much. I know this is a bit long. Just wanted to write this so if any other tourist like you wants to come to Macedonia, they should pack s pepper spray. People wont attack you but dogs might. And the worst part is they usually gather in groups of 2-5 dogs.

[@julianakoteski8231]

Just came across your channel! Love the video so far! The house right where that donkey was is my grandmothers I go back every summer! Love Ohrid

[@AlexX-yo4lb]

Even i havent done what you just did in this video (and i live here) i am amazed dude, was shocked,like, wtf? did he really walk and climb that much in one daaaaaaay? crazy, man, great job.

[@vladtheimpaler9674]

Amazing. You just missed one more important town, Bitola. The city was highly influenced by the Turks in the Ottoman era, so there are many strctures such as the Clock tower from the 16th century, also for you as a mountain lover, there is the National Park Pelister, second biggest and the most beautiful national park in Macedonia with its own endemic spieces (over 15) existing only here on Mountain Baba with summit Pelister (2601m). You have to come back! :)

[@Nadia..J]

Oh you dear guy... climbing in the heat all by yourself, then nearly attacked 😳🤦‍♀️. Kudos... the brave soldier who can walk alone has already won. Great view!

[@moriahsmith6196]

I'm glad you survived the encounter with those canine bullies! Breathtaking views!

[@deandjakovic54]

Don't let anyone and anything stop you from living your dreams

[@TrueMexico]

Awesome video as always. I love A to B adventures and that was epic.

[@IndigoTraveller]

Cheers dude! Was a great day :)

[@NikolaSekuloski]

It took you so long to discover the port and main square, I'm from Ohrid, nice videos, the snakes around the lake are not venomous.

[@IndigoTraveller]

Cheers Nikola!

[@longlivemacedonia6347]

[@hausmeisterengineering5952]

Damn I have been to this place a thousand times and have never climbed that hill. You really are crazy.

[@NarayanStian]

Thank you. This exact incident happened to me here in Monetenegro, but I didn't know what to do. Next time, I will know my rock solid defense. Thank you 💓

[@wingus857]

[@MegaJilliana]

[@mylonash7136]

Smashing good video, Nick! Thank you for sharing your experience with us all. IMO the organic nature of your videos is refreshing. Your are actually out there traveling for the sake of traveling. I will support that kind content every day, as we all should. Subscribers hop on over to Patreon and show Nick and his work some support financially. That's all I'll say on that. Exceptionally good content!

[@IndigoTraveller]

Hey Mylon! Thank you for the kind words mate, really appreciate all the support and backing your are giving me, means a lot. I'm uploading today's vlog right now, there is a shoutout in there for you just to say thank you. Cheers! Nick :)

[@IndigoTraveller]

Cheers Asif! Appreciate that. Haha yeah man, I have some back home but now my camera is literally in my hand the whole time i'm out so I can't really hold two sticks any more haha

[@genius8245]

These dogs 5:52 are so funny lol, it's like they thought who the hell is this is coming straight us, they probably waited for fresh meat :)

[@IndigoTraveller]

Hahaha yeah, exactly

[@genius8245]

Hahahaha, good luck.

[@Snowl30pard]

Awesome trail, had a run in with some street dogs in costa rica, always a scary time. great vid as always dudee

[@IndigoTraveller]

Yeah man, gotta hate those street dogs. Cheers Connor!

[@DudeLove365]

Street dogs scare the crap out of me. Had a few lucky escapes, most recently in Goa and Vietnam. Hardest thing to do is to hold your nerve and not run!

[@IndigoTraveller]

100% agree. Scary :)

[@esmailhesham3449]

Absolutely lovin ur videos man thanks !

[@IndigoTraveller]

Thanks again mate! ❤️

[@chaoticbandit4846]

Awesome video 😀im glad you like Macedonia and ohrid there's a tons of places to visit from churches,lakes,national parks,the best nature in the world ... Btw did you visit St.Naum in ohrid?

[@Rickeeey1]

I like wandering/trekking and sometimes I meet dogs that are loose. It can be a scary experience at times. Last month I was walking and suddenly a pitbull approached me near a house and started barking at me. I shouted for help and swung my backpack. The dog gave up. I hate it when people keep their dogs loose. The wild animals in Sweden are generally not dangerous but dogs can be. I've got bitten by a small dog once, a neighbour's dog actually. Well, it wasn't too bad but it was still annoying.

[@laurabuck6089]

Loving your videos Nick!! 😊😊

[@IndigoTraveller]

Thanks Laura! Hope you're well!

[@TerryPitman]

Awesome hiking vlog Nick! Looks like you ascended to a plateau, which was beautiful also in addition to the coastline and city below. Loved the ending about following your dreams :) Thanks man! Looks like a great little city. I never considered visiting Macedonia but seeing your vlog of this city makes me put it on my list.

[@IndigoTraveller]

Cheers Terry, it was an epic day! And yes Macedonia is very underrated! Thank you for your comments mate :)

[@user-cq2bb3pn4t]

[@IndigoTraveller]

Yo Jem, yeah man, just while I'm in europe, once I get to Asia, things will be harder with locations/internet. Hope you're well dude!

[@corrado]

Damn dogs!

[@hurryrainer3181]

great video 😀

[@IndigoTraveller]

Cheers Hurry Rainer!

[@kristiangorgievski]

You encountered the dogs well but the best thing to do is keep your eye on them and move away slowly

[@dannglish]

Hi Nick! Is there a good internet connection in Macedonia?

[@777SBEP]

Fyi bud, u chose the hottest summer in 20 years to visit Ohrid and Macedonia, but seeing how you handle the heat and not getting heat stroke, i would say only, good on you m8

[@IndigoTraveller]

Yeah, it was so hot today, no wonder I didn't see any other hikers haha. Cheers mate!

[@777SBEP]

Ouuuu and one more thing u have to try while in Macedonia, dont forget to try Tavche gravche and shopska salata, both of which Macedonia is known for around i would say even Europe not just Balkan, just make sure to have a Macedonian friend in the restaurant to make the order, coz once the waiters hear foreign language, the prices sky rocket :D Take care, and always stay in good health in your trips around the world m8

[@BIGJED75]

We hate street dogs as well. Honestly I thought we were going to get killed in Thailand. We were surrounded by a pack of about 8 dogs, only thing that saved us was a car came around the corner and it gave us time to get away.

[@r4ng3r86]

Great video,continue to visit Macedonia,you have Like and Subscribe!

[@filipvelkov6829]

[@IndigoTraveller]

Cheers!

[@shngain100]

I also would love to travel to the balkan countries, looks beautiful and delicious food. From among all those Balkan countries you've traveled can you suggest one nation that's more gay/transgender friendly? It'll be awesome to know and I won't have to fear for my life. Greetings from Asia.

[@IndigoTraveller]

+maxim100 hi there, I have had great times in all but I'm not sure about what ones are more gay friendly than the others. I think if you go there and use common sense then you will be ok ✌️

[@shngain100]

Thank you buddy, common sense is the key. Your videos are awesome, they show the real local stuff of the common people and the natural beauty. Keep exploring more countries.

[@MK-tr3rt]

In Skopje, Macedonia there are a lot of Asian tourists lately. But if you are gay, and you are looking for love.. I'd suggest you don't look for it in the Balkans. But it's your decision.

[@shngain100]

[@lukamicevski4907]

#notificationsquad where u at?

[@islamfouad2619]

You have the most beautiful views in Newzeland, why why looking for nice view ? maybe the best thing in your travelling is the people you meet , new customs you see but views common Australia and Newzeland are more than enough

[@thenin4e]

Hahaha this made me laugh!

[@msn1ckey]

Are you ok Nick?

[@IndigoTraveller]

Yeah, I'm great! I survived! 🇲🇰🏔️

[@SebastianBecker]

Mhm, interestingly: The street dogs in Macedonia seem to be more aggressive than those in Bulgaria. The one's in BG are always so tired & sad, they have no interest / energy to bark at anyone (despite, sometimes, themselves, but only during night time). Most barking dogs are, in some way, connected to a used property / have an owner. I guess it's always best to ignore them and don't care too much. Awesome content, btw. - thanks to you, Macedonia (and Lebanon) are now on my bucket list for 2019. I'm pretty sure I'm / we're going to visit both countries.
