[@apinanraivo100]

Becoming a fan of your work. Gracias!

[@Walk_with_Efren]

So glad you like them. It means the world to me. I put a lot of time and effort into them.

[@apinanraivo100]

@@Walk_with_Efren I really do. Your effort and professionalism show. In addition, you put yourself on the line. Still in awe after having watched the via Francegina series. Plains of the northwestern France, that was savage.

Award Winning Video - Just Fabulous- Thank You Efren !!!

[@caminoonmymind]

I'm here for all of your Camino videos. Just take us back, Efren, take us back!

[@Walk_with_Efren]

I'm head back next week. Via podiensis here we go.

[@jacquidunbar6779]

Geez, I love your videos. Side note, my mom's side is from Galicia too, and migrated to Cuba. Jose Garcia-Barbón (my great great uncle) was a big shot in the ol'country and was also the co-owner of the first banco in Cuba. He also comissioned el Club Gallego en la havana and the Garcia-Barbon theater in Vigo among other beautiful buildings still standing today. In other words, podrido en plata y se lo dejó todo al pueblo...Mejor dicho al ayuntamiento.

[@billkrueger9305]

great drone video, many thanks!

[@ellemdee276]

Oustanding filmmaking today. I can't help but marvel that these episodes are being produced by one guy carrying all his equipment on his back - on foot!- and expertly editing them on a laptop in a bunk in a hostel in the countryside. Just think of that next time you see the miles of closing credits on any studio production.

[@Walk_with_Efren]

Thank you Elle. It is a lot of work but I enjoy every mine of it. I only wish there was better wifi to upload the vlogs.

[@orion2250]

I agree, outstanding production values! Artist eye and engineer skills

[@LosPeregrinosdeCamino]

Yeah but Efren is a pro.. he does this for a living in his past life so he’s an expert

[@ellemdee276]

@@LosPeregrinosdeCamino Well yeah, but as I mentioned, look at the rolling credits after any studio production - they're all pros too & it takes hundreds of them to do what he does all by himself! It's still pretty dang impressive what he can do on the fly without similar levels of resources even given that he has professional experience.

[@cindyrodriguez166]

Your videos always bring me such peace ... and excitement. I had to postpone my camino in 2020, but my husband and I are doing it in Sept of 2022. I feel transported each every video ... stunning footage and I love your entertaining style. :-).

[@1313ut]

Nicely put together. Excellent footage !

[@bradhorwitz2214]

O Cebreiro must be one of the most beautiful cities you can imagine! I have never walked the Camino but I can easily see how people can just quickly stroll through places like this without even realizing what a treasure it is.

[@placidobaamonde6374]

Brad, O Cebreiro es la puerta de las sorpresas que ofrece la hermosa Galicia.

[@eisingen]

Galicia is my favourite part of the Camino Francés🥰 Thank you for another great vlog!

[@placidobaamonde6374]

Buen gusto, Eija Antonilli. Galicia, un tesoro escondido en el noroeste de la península ibérica. Gracias, Eija.

[@kenyackimec1651]

You just look so darn happy! I figure its like visiting an old friend as you round every corner. Make us really want to walk it again to get it right(er) this time!

[@cherr1355]

I recently discovered your videos. Such gorgeous videography. Really enjoying the views! I hope to one day walk any of the Caminos.

[@Walk_with_Efren]

thank you Cher. I'm so glad you enjoy my content. buen camino.

[@joaquindelcueto2482]

Waited weeks for this. Well worth the wait though. Looking forward to the rest of your vlogs.

[@verenama6519]

beautiful drone shots! thx. Just been walking here 4 weeks ago, for the 9th time crossing O Cebreiro, and it was crowded, Triacastella full with hundreds of pilgrims. So great to see the area from above

[@erinmh]

Bomb drone footage of O Cebreiro

[@johnmclean2254]

Holy! Efren. This footage is spectacular. The depth and clarity with this set up is second to none. Very impressive. You are making me miss and yearn for the trail. Thank you

[@Walk_with_Efren]

Thank you John

[@gmglick1]

Beautiful video. Thanks Efrén

[@angiebee598]

Thank you! I remember that stretch of the camino! It's so good to see it again! I'm glad you decided to wait to upload the videos and enjoy your camino!

[@a3b33dubs]

Love your spirit Efren! I hope you enjoyed the rest of your camino without the added pressure of editing.

[@Magooej22]

Great video as usual. Nice to see those vistas again. Thanks for sharing!@

[@salvatoregranata7878]

Thank you so much for the Efren for video and presentation as usual very professional. This is definitely one of my favourite stages of the Camino Frances, gracias amigo.

[@FlipperNS]

One of my favourite places in the Camino. Beautiful drone shots!

[@revlindaumc]

The opening shots in this are breathtaking. Absolutely stunning, Efren. Professional quality. In fact, throughout this episode is some of the best, if not THE best filming you've done. Loved it. Thanks for taking us with you into Galicia in such spectacular fashion!

[@gjbs55]

Beautiful drone shots of O Cebreiro and Triacastela! Saw the albuergues and bars where we stayed and had our menu del dias. Gracias Efren!

[@jennysjourney117]

The opening shot of the video is beautiful!!!!

[@gjbs55]

Awesome! Brings back memories of fave towns - O Cebreiro & Triacastela!

[@StephenandYhana]

You filmed some beautiful shots in this video, great video my friend and love your channel too. I love Camino videos

[@pongo1289]

Thanks for your efforts and for bringing back memories from Camino 2019, this was my favourite day on Camino and the one I will never forget

[@killiancooney]

Thanks Efren. This was my favourite day on the Frances, August 2020. It was great to relive it with you.

[@Maryann110]

Mine too in 2013.

[@rayvogensen2983]

That poster is for la Estrella del Camino, Estrella de Galicia's new beer, to try to take advantage of the fame of the Camino. Estrella de Galicia is my favorite beer.

[@mindymiraglia]

Worth the wait! Thank you for this beautiful video. The music and editing was spot on.

[@luisalverio8854]

Efrén, mi hermano thank you for the beautiful drone footage. Truly amazing. Love the music.

[@Rogar0]

Fantasztikus Efrén. Amazing footage, with really wonderful sound tracks! I’m really enjoying it and am ‘feeling’ the trail! ¡Buen Camino y Salud! 👣🍷🦉👍😎

[@Maryann110]

Gorgeous video again. Love that part of the walk. Another awesome job. Can’t wait for Le Puy. (Puy is extinct volcano. Lots in that area.) Fun fact 😂

[@Walk_with_Efren]

thank you Mary I can't wait to get there!

[@Geertvanhaverbeke]

Top, to see this again after 4 years !

[@Geertvanhaverbeke]

And how empty everything is !!! I can not imagine , I was on that same bar in 2017 full of people

[@maurice5992]

Thanks Efren, bringing back some beautiful memories of my own Camino adventure back in 2019....great film making.

[@reyl9228]

Very Awesome. I can't wait to go back. I'm giving it more time though as I would rather walk without worrying about reservations and what not. Thank you for the videos man!

[@matthewzenofmatthew4415]

Wonderful episode!!!! Art film, capital A.

[@28762mrp]

Beautiful mountains captured on your drone shots. Thanks, Efren!

[@Walk_with_Efren]

Thank Steve.

[@Arthur-Silva]

The invisible pole is pretty cool!

[@Walk_with_Efren]

the best. I only wish they had a higher mega pixel count. my vlogs are in 4k and the camera only exports HD 1080p

[@falkzimmermann6141]

Wonderful pictures, memories are awakened. Thanks, Efren

[@BrotherNeilBrendan]

Great footage…. 🙏

[@carolinesaunders6656]

Stunning filming Efren. I remember seeing O Cebriero last time and the views from that albergue. I long to walk the Francés. These videos are worth the wait peregrino 😍

[@ljubicastankovic338]

What a great scenery and what a great drone shots! And with the music you picked combined with the sound of your footsteps (through the desolated places) it just adds up to the magic you create! Keep up the great work, Efrén!🐌🌻

[@Walk_with_Efren]

Glad you enjoyed it Ljubica! wait until you see the next vlog. the forest around Samos is brreathtaking.

[@cindys7560]

Enjoying the videos. The contrast between 2019 and 2021 is illuminating.

[@jeffbelanger1108]

Thanks for doing this! It's great to see these places in a diffrent season! I was hoping to see the hat that blew off my head shortly after O Cebriero!

[@TheAnactoria]

Truly magical footage with the clouds rolling in!! Loved hearing about your great grandfather. Mine was from the Basque Country and moved to Mexico in the 1920s! The Camino is in our blood! Loving the vlog!!

[@GetInspiredMedia]

Love Galicia Efren. It was one of my favourite location on the Camino Frances. The one thing I learned was (and you had it it the opening credits), is that you have to walk your own Camino. No one can walk it for you and you cannot walk the Camino on another. You have been a greater help to me that you can realise on my own journey or re-discovery right now! Buen Camino my friend!!

[@rayvogensen2983]

As the descendent of a galego I am surprised you haven't done the Camino dos Faros, from Malpica de Bergantiños to Fisterra. That would be a great walk and there would be few people on the way.

[@Walk_with_Efren]

I almost walk the stage of the camino dos faros from music to fisterra but decided to come back at a later date and do the entire length of the trip. It's definitely on the list of upcoming trips.

[@SC03]

Great filming on this video Efren. As usual I look forward to every one them. Excellent my friend. Great job. Can you pls tell me about the umbrella, make, model where can I purchase one in preparation for my Camino Frances in a bit.

[@Walk_with_Efren]

thank you so much. the umbrella is from www.gossamergear.com/ the same company that makes the backpack i'm currently using.

[@Frisbeeninja2]

Keep up the good work! This makes me miss my Camino Frances I did in 2019! Hopefully, next spring I can do the Norte!

[@rayvogensen2983]

Beautiful drone scenes of the valleys and the fog. I live on the border between Portugal and Galicia and love Galicia. What village or town was your great grandfather from? Have you gone there to make a spiritual connection. I did that with my grandfather who was born in a village in Denmark and I saw the house where he had grown up.

[@Walk_with_Efren]

Thank you Ray. All I know is he was from Galicia we don't know which town. I like to think I already walk through it one of my pilgrimages.

[@josephdesousa]

I wish there was a download link to all of Efrén’s videos. Or maybe Efrén, you can merch it

[@Walk_with_Efren]

They are all perfectly organized in the playlist tab.

[@charliepearton9596]

I'm sure the wine is alcohol free.. I don't usually drink alcohol.. Obviously I did when I recently went on the short Camino.. Drank some wine.. OK 2 glasses and didn't feel tipsy.

[@randyclark1221]

Another nice video. I would think the Camino is a bit lonely without all the pilgrims. For me, one part of walking would be to experience all the interactions with people. Thanks, Efren, though for the great camera work. Your videos are so good.

[@Walk_with_Efren]

Thank you Randy although the first few days were quite It's always It's all about to change in Sarria.

[@diannehoworth7658]

Hi efren. So...... will this be your last vlog until you get home? WHAT!! l can’t bear it ,,,l will miss your vlogs .

[@Walk_with_Efren]

Hi Dianne. I will probably get to edit two more before I leave. I will schedule them a week a part.
