I must admit, when you first set out and dropped the moped at the ferry port, the very first time, into them other bikers, I thought "This guy hasn't got a chance of making it". Well, after watching just that first episode, I found myself willing you on to Italy. I was 100% invested in your journey and couldn't wait for the next upload's. It was incredible to see you make it! I felt like I have made it with you. Your family is amazing and good luck on your next adventure, I will be watching you! SUPERBO!

[@TeddysLego]

Have you seen what else he has done?! He ALWAYS makes it! 😊

[@TheCameraManReviews]

@@TeddysLego No this is the first time I have watched.

[@TeddysLego]

@@TheCameraManReviews he is great! Very humble and unassuming but always gets the job done. Hope you enjoy his next adventure.

[@anne-mariezack]

I loved this series! I teared up when you reunited with your family. What an awesome and brave person you are.

[@cqbarnieify]

Thank you for taking us on this trip with you. I’ve enjoyed every video!

[@Brokmod]

This serie,this adventure: WOW! Thanks!

[@illuminedelusion]

I'm so glad all worked out and you arrived to reunite with Raya and Neo safe and sound! I love following your self-challenge adventures!

[@michaeldangels8585]

I think you travelled along the E45 major road, which is considered a motorway in Italy and Europe and only motorbikes with a CC superior to 250 can legally travel on it. I think you got very very lucky if so! Great to see you finally made it safe and sound! Held my breath quite a few times x

[@amberhiggins4238]

Louis, this series was an absolute blast to watch what you had to go through. You are so good at narrating the videos. My hubby and I smiled at each other when you sang the hills are alive with the sound of music!! We watched the entire series and it was amazing to see all the ups and downs in this entire trip. We absolutely enjoyed every video. Cant wait until you are able to do a trip like this with raya and neo along as well!! Thank you so much for doing this series. I hope rayas dad loved his new toy. We wish you all the best. Please do another trip like this sometime I near future. Again thank you

[@claravonessen5673]

Wow. YOU MADE IT, Louis!!! So emotional, thank you for your enormous effort to bring such fun, uplifting series. After your trip in the US with Cali and kind of a sad ending, I'm so happy that you could close this chapter and made it to your beautiful family: Raya and Neo! I REALLY enjoyed this series, in fact, this content is SO inspiring. I would love to see a similar challenge with the entire family back together (Cali included), with some camping on wild places (perhaps something in Bulgaria?). I also loved that this trip had such a generous purpose! Well done, mister!!!! :D

[@user-bl7ii2ug2l]

@@claravonessen5673 I didn't find the trip with Cali sad, I thought it showed the reality of the push towards electric vehicles. We don't have the infrastructure for such endeavors! I also found it to be educational and informative. Louis survived with the help of good people along the way. For myself and many others like me, we prefer to travel conventionally. Pull into a fuel station and fill up the tank. 😉😁⛽🚗

[@amstergal]

I watched Raya in Bulgaria video earlier today (beautiful) and now seeing your final day and your reunion with Raya and Neo. So sweet, perfect!

[@itsadamoc]

Loved this series Louis!

[@user-bl7ii2ug2l]

Business is business, people who have to pay the electric bill at hotels, motels, campgrounds are responsible for family too. Love the channel, glad you made it safely. 🌹🌝🌚

[@user-cf8sn3nv5b]

Agreed Louis just a tad rude

[@VedaSay]

Yes absolutely just that there is a better way of communicating that. My family runs a hotel and they just tell the charges off front. And if there is specific place they can charge and all that. When am visiting my parents many times I step out and tell the guests "Am sorry but you can not charge here. There is a metered charge port, PLEASE use that. We can not allow you to charge at this port." And before we got the metered port, the initial days of EVs, we just told them a fixed amount. Most did not mind paying. Now we have destination charging with 8 charging units at our premise. Now we get guests who come to our place only because of the charging available.

[@JordanPike]

If you run a business, you should learn to be pleasant to your potential customers and charge them off the get go for the services you offer.

For someone of Louis’ age and experience of travelling around the world, he’s so naive and/or ignorant. I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt and say it’s more likely to be the former, but still.

I have loved this adventure. So glad your back with Raya and Neo😊

[@bsale2024]

[@wilko999]

Really enjoyed this trip well done on getting there! How about a trip Perth to Sydney all on solar 😬

[@nicandtris]

Love following your adventures, but I have to say, that guy was not being ridiculous. You came across as pretty entitled in this series to be fair. Expecting to effectively steal electricity at a time when prices are rising and people have businesses to run. It just seemed you were being a little on the wrong side of just cheeky a few times in the series. Nevertheless, a fun adventure and glad you made it safely.

[@susanadams-wauro6716]

He always asks, pays or buys a meal, so not understanding your entitled comment

[@nicandtris]

@@susanadams-wauro6716 actually a few videos back he said better to ask forgiveness than permission and was sneaking batteries in. Also, buying a meal, pays for the meal, not the electricity. I'm not saying always, but in this series, that's the impression we got a couple of times. These days, with everything being so expensive, I personally would have insisted on paying for the electricity every time, never being sneaky. It just didn't sit right with me that a youtuber with 2 million subscribers would take electricity for free.

[@susanadams-wauro6716]

@@nicandtris point taken

[@lagmonster7789]

Charging that thing is only like 4kWh from empty to full, Even on the worst of days & timing that would barely equate to €2 and on an average Mediterranean summer day, i very much doubt it'd be more than 50 cents to charge it for ~3H during working hours (peak solar duck curve). I'm ok with the owner demanding a fee to charge, but €8 is pretty darn steep, even at my ridiculously overpriced local 150kW fast charger l'd get ~17kWh for that price🤔

[@eimearshanahan1567]

I don'y agree with you , Louis was always respectful and always asked. He never covertly plugged in.

[@karenhillblom7131]

Congrats on a safe trip.

[@user-bl7ii2ug2l]

Louis rocks! Finding a way no matter what. That's a man that loves his wife and child! Language barriers do not stop Louis. An awesome family, can't wait for more Costa Rican content on the 'other' channel. Ride on 🏍️ 😎

[@Laydiki]

I have spent my 8-hour work day (behind a desk) binging this entire journey! Thank you for sharing this and allowing me to virtually escape with you through it all! Thank you also for leaving the information to Cho Cho! His business will be beneficial to my new business' success!!

[@christianadventure]

CONGRATULATIONS!!! I can see how you felt the trip was wild and mental, but it was entertaining to watch your journey! Gods bless you and your family!

[@JordanPike]

Totally agree.

[@blessingsoutlaw]

What a brave soul you are, Louis! 🎉 We’re so proud of you…

[@richardharker2775]

Crazy guy on a moped. So happy you made it.

[@klisurski]

In most languages "bike" is translates to bicycle and not motorbike. In Bulgaria the thing you're riding is called "scooter" or "moped". That's where the confusion came from- your phone translated "bike" as "bici" both times and this means "bicycle" in Italian. Most of the Italian campgrounds have very low power limits on the sockets. Sth like 4A to prevent people using heaters in the cold season, so maybe the owner thought you would trip the breaker (what EV chargers usually do)

[@MoeezBinHamid]

it's like WE made it to Italy from UK xD Well done!

[@-i.cats-]

[@user-cf8sn3nv5b]

What a journey well done Louis 👏

[@ricardo1wils]

Honestly liked the series but it was a bit of an anticlimax at the end!

[@NilaRegenstein]

Yea! You made it to your family! ❤

[@cp4512]

Great video and great journey. It does show how range anxiety is a factor of EV ownership!

[@e-bikerbulgaria]

Yeah, is especially true when require every watt hour out of a battery. I haven’t seen every episode, never seen him access an EV charger station via Type 2 adapter? That would take away many problems. I’ve enjoyed what I’ve seen. Nothing better than the hush of an electric bike or scooter ride .

[@alfrredd]

​@@e-bikerbulgariasadly no, he only charged in coffe shops, restaurants and camping sites

[@FilipinoMusicians]

Now I know if I can use solar panels for charging. Thanks for showing us Louis. It's doable but not on a tight schedule. Glad to know that. Cheers mate.

[@stephandmicah]

Congrats Louis! It's so fun to watch you do these challenges!

[@ItsBugsy]

Amazing congrats Louis!

[@erinpauley6697]

If you do something like this again, if you can hook a solar panel on the front or on top of you battery/storage area to collect solar as you go to help

[@chels3429]

So I absolutely LOVED this series! It was fun to see all the scenery go by, the plot twists, and how you handle it all. I teared up when you finally made it! Congratulations! Can't wait for the next adventure!

[@klisurski]

I started watching the 1st episode because I was absolutely sure there's no way you can get there on solar in 10 days and I was interested when you will give up. TBH the days where you charged from sockets were more pleasant to watch than the ones you did 35miles and spent mostly on a field charging. Still getting from UK to Italy on electric moped is an achievement.

[@shelleylake4430]

Congrats!!!

[@damon-burton]

Incredible journey. It's inspiring to see your determination and resilience in overcoming the challenges of a solar-powered scooter adventure. The emotional reunion with their family is truly heartwarming. A big testament to the power of human spirit and the beauty of exploration.

[@kristilucia3491]

Oh that was SUCH a good series! I hated to see it end, but what a finish 🎉 Congratulations, Louis... ya done good 😊👍

[@joshjamesuk]

Louis, you are definitely a musician! DJ’ing is a serious musical skill. I think a lot of people overlook how much skill actually goes into being a good DJ. It is NOT easy! I would love to see more DJ content from you in the future. The Jazzy/Funky/Soulful/HipHop vibes you are on is completely up my street! Love it!!
