What an island! I’ve been watching so much of your travel Vlogs recently, the recent ones and the Older videos

[@FRFC2020]

Those Greek islands are absolutely serene 🏝️

Those Cyclades videos made my heart jump. Thank you so much! I am counting down the days, In 40 days I'll be in Athens. 🎉 🎉 🎉

Good morning from Arizona 6 AM and 94 degrees. Love the Greek videos.

Hey Gabriel, awesome video! I hope you visit Greece again soon. Enjoy your next travel!

[@kriskruz3792]

Great to see those sunny Greek islands with those beautiful beaches. Dreaming of that back here in the UK!

[@effievassiliadis6503]

I think you left your heart in Koufonisia Gabriel,you threw the coin back into the sea which in my opinion you will be back someday! Your videos are extraordinary,you have an artist's eye! Happy and safe travels and as we say in Greek Kalo taxidi!!

[@CaptainOatwright]

Yes, he’ll be back when someone identifies that coin as an ancient coin from the era of Alexander the Great worth thousands! 😂 Should have used the old trick of soaking it in coca-cola overnight?! 🪙

[@adw2010able]

The coin could be soaked in some coke, really liking seeing the Greek Islands, looking atvgoing there myself this trip that I'm on.

[@antiowarr9467]

Showing green it could be copper, what we would use when kids to clean coins is ketchup!! The brand don't matter just make sure it is covered. Worth a try and cheap lol

[@mikeytoddure6382]

Love your choice of music you put in your vlogs Gabriel high roller Traveller 💯⚘❤

There's plenty of loose stones to repair that goat shed @ 1:34. Goats could make it work well and be plenty cheezy - but someone protecting and watering new, high protein mulberry ( and other ) trees and grape vines might take some woven fence, a trellis and care with watering. But, where's the forages? Ah, a water harvesting roof system might be possible. Comparing the lodging costs of 100€/day - I'd consider the value of improving the housing shortage situation. And, the supply of "coins of the realm" might help. More shade could happen while fishing. 🌳🐟🌿 It would be great to bring the water back & be stewards for restoring the degraded ecosystems.

I wudda thought your soles of feet could handle the hot sand by now 🤣👍🇬🇷 I land in Athens day after tomorrow for 6 weeks.. absolutely buzzing for it

You should make a medaillon from the coin :) Doesn't matter what it is.. It has a story already because you found it in a nice place :)

That would've been better than the one he bought!

Thanks Gabe, Greece is so cool

[@clubfasteddie77]

Beautiful island, I love the music from minute 10 or 11. Thanks a lot.

[@stevecook706]

Soke the coin in coca cola overnight Gabe. I used to to the same with beryllium copper golf clubs 25 years ago to clean them.

[@lonniewilliamson2569]

I was wondering about the people we see on the islands. How many are locals, how many are Greeks, European or elsewhere? Interesting to know the approximate percentage.

[@virginianemith]

I so enjoyed the saga of the coin. Beautiful Greece.

[@drivanhawk3423]

The color of the sea is just fabulous. In addition, the beautiful white houses and the beautiful flat beach at the beginning of the video. A beautiful spot on earth and the summer has just begun. I count down the days, on Saturday it goes to the Croatian islands much reminds me of the landscape on the Greek islands. The scent of lavender, the chirping cicadas, the hot sun beating down on us. Thank you for taking us on the journey to the Greek islands. Enjoy your drink at the end of the day. Best wishes.

[@xlxfx]

A - more beautiful than Santorini. B - closest replica to the Indian Ocean in Europe imo

[@A-G-23]

Hey Gabriel! I remember you saying in one of your videos that you wanted to check out the cruise experience in India. Suggestion: so the next time you're here, you can hop on to Cordelia Cruises. They have several itineraries. They even sail to Sri Lanka from India! Check their website for more info.

[@dextardextar]

for that coin, u need some tarnish remover or CLR or just baking soda and a toothbrush.

[@MDchaz]

That coin based on the copper content is probably an ancient Greek Γαβρῑήλ. They’re worth about $45,000 at a coin collector auction.

[@jimmyboyles2868]

Could have paid for years of travels!

[@gerrytran]

Beautiful and fully informative videos on the most beautiful islands on earth!

[@wilfredotorres6628]

Hi Gabriel, that final day was beautiful you got a chance to swim and eat a nice shark meal well prepare is a great seafood choice, and for the coin, it looked like it had decomposed to make anything of it had the shape of a coin, but it was totally defaced.

[@nebojsa1976]

Just by looking at it, I think that is one of the first coins that Apollo gave to Artemis over 2000 years ago. There were two coins. This one appears to be second one worth approximately $1,800,000 on auction (replace value).

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

I'm going back there today with my swim goggles. 😁 But seriously, I scraped away on it and wasn't seeing any kind of inscriptions on either side. I concluded it was probably some sort of leftover metal plug from a construction site or something along those lines. I could certainly be wrong.

[@nebojsa1976]

@@GabrielTravelerVideos you never know until you clean it up. Maybe God decided to make you millionaire, and you said, I don't need money, life is better without money hahaha

[@jimjim8645]

Ok, now you have another good reason to come back to Greece Gabe. You (only) know the place , bring your swim goggles and dive...

@@GabrielTravelerVideos sounds expensive 🫤? Is that the norm now in Greece for a basic room

[@jimjim8645]

​@@ianwhittaker3041it is expensive. But, it's hot season and the room is ,"first row". Small Cyclades islands are very small (practically they are just beach islands) and many Greeks especially Athenians visit them. There is no norm in Greece during summer - you can find rooms from 50€ to thousands €, depending the place,the search you've done, luck... booking rooms in advance is always the best plan.

[@andraskleistenes8586]

@@ianwhittaker3041 It is a very small island, that means very few accomodation can be to rented out. Nevertheless, demand is growing for this beautiful island, which does not want to be a target of mass tourism, obviousely

Gabe, the audio is way out of sync. Judging by the comments, I’m not the only one this is happening to.

Yeah, I made an editing change to it and sometimes it takes a little while before it syncs up fully. Very annoying but it should get straightened out sometime soonish.

[@pvdppvdp6638]

Letting tapwater run like that to try to clean what might be a coin (or not). And that on an island where fresh water is scarse in summer (like on most of the Greek islands). Untoughtful and disrespectful IMHO. I have been watching your videos from Greece and I'm amazed that after visiting 48 islands you are still not aware of rule n°1 of island hopping: First check the ferry possibilities and then book accommodation accordingly.

[@lucianmaxim5444]
