Nearly Didn't Make It! 🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏼‍♀️(we had to run) | Goodbye Skopje & North Macedonia!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Have you ever had to run in an airport? Kinda embarrassing huh?! 🤣

[@itsjustmyopinionbut1671]

Daneger and Stacey yep 👍 2 times in the last year and both times with our 2 young kids in tow 😆😰

[@DanegerAndStacey]

@It’s just my opinion but Yiiiiiikes! You win, hands down. That aint easy 🤣

[@katajha831]

Not yet but we did have to run from our air bnb to the trains a few times before we figured out google walking instructions are clearly for the flash, and not mortals. By the third train we had it figured out to give it 1.5 times what it said. so. half hour walk we gave 2 hours. From then on were early, but lordy if you can walk from St. Lazare to Gare de nord in 24 minutes you are my hero.

[@itsjustmyopinionbut1671]

Daneger and Stacey haha thanks! No, it’s not easy, we might be crazy for it lol and we’re definitely almost always somehow, some way underprepared or late 😆🤦‍♀️ Glad you made it!! 🙏🙌🏼

[@DanegerAndStacey]

@@katajha831 Hahaha you sound far too experienced at being either late or early 🤣 We were always 'late travellers' in the past, but the over the last few years we're now probably more early starters... of course having lounge access makes that a lot less stressy.

[@michaelmarchesano4927]

Videos are great. Keep on posting them.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We aint stoppin!

[@bobguenther6658]

Can’t wait for the upcoming videos. Loved Brussels and Bruges!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Which did you prefer, Bob? Bruges wasn't possible this time, but heard great things

[@Y_Not1]

Wonderful video today I really enjoy your work. Thanks for sharing.💕💕😃😁😊😎✌😜😉🌹

[@DanegerAndStacey]

🤙🏼 Always.

[@sacroyalty]

Can't wait to see Belgium through your guys eyes! Then through my own eyes..

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Your eyes will love it as much as ours, it's special

[@honee2short200]

You two are hilarious 🤣🤣 can’t wait for your new adventure to begin. Like Bilbo says “ I’m going on an adventure “ lol 🥰🥰

[@DanegerAndStacey]

You can come on a food adventure with us first, ya'll gonna be huuuungry though haha. First vid is out now

[@Natalie13K]

Yay Belgium!! I want to plan a trip to Ghent next year! Excited for this series!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

You're going to love Belgium!

[@therichtersvacationlog6411]

The music was awesome when you were rushing to the next plane! lol!!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Haha thank you

[@JakeRyTravels]

If any travel couple was fit enough to run to the plane - its 100% you guys!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Haha dunno about that guys 🤣

[@temperateortropical161]

Definitely need to escape to somewhere warmer. Autumn seems to have gone into winter.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We're fast learning we quite like this middle ground, too much sun isn't bearable, but too cold is a no no as well. Lifes so tough huh 🤣

[@shaheershujaat2223]

Wow Daneger and Stacey both of you are looking very nice beautiful amazing video well done 😊😊❤️❤️👍👍

[@DanegerAndStacey]

😍😍

[@joshr9417]

I had to run at the new Istanbul airport 2 days ago, supposedly had 1 1/2 hour layover but when I arrived the signs said the flight was already boarding. From gate to gate its a 20 to 25 minute walk time, because they route you though the mall part of the airport. There were no moving sidewalks, or baggage carts and a 2 story escalator was out of order, so I arrived at my gate sweaty and out a breath for my 12 hour flight back to the USA.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We know how big that airport is as well, you had a real mission running through that shopping mall strip they have as well! Glad you made it, but thats not ideal for a 12 hour flight!

[@debby6235]

Really looking forward to this series. My grandfather was just 18 years old when he left his native Brussells to immegrate to the USA in early 1800's. Waffles, chocolate, fries, beer, architecture, history oh yeah this will be like what heaven and dreams are made of I am sure of it. 😁🍻

[@TigersTimelessTreasures]

Early 1800s? Do you mean 1900s? Have you ever been to Belgium?

[@DanegerAndStacey]

First food video just came out - can confirm, Brussels is amazing!! Hope we can give you some insight into your grandfathers home

[@PortlyTravellers]

Belgium is 1 of our favorite countries! We will be back there in 2 weeks. Bruges is our favorite place to use as a home base there :) We will be in our first airport lounge next week too. Yea travel rarely goes as planned, we've only missed 1 connection so far, sure made the day interesting.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

How cool guys, we only just realised how special Belgium is and why so many people recommended it!

[@TheFPF422]

Chocolate and Fries... and Beers... 360 different ones with some regularly voted as the best in the world

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We barely tasted 1% by the end of our trip - gotta go back!

[@williamfulbright5108]

Been there, done that. Flight on Austrian Air late from Skopje to Vienna, but our flight to Amsterdam left without us. Waited stand by for the last flight. Last ones one the plane. Snowstorm. De icing. Arrived in Amsterdam late and a tough night at the airport hotel. Not again.

[@IAMDANREEVE]

I've been to Brussels twice.. literally to drink and buy beer to ship back to the US.... and for no other reason. :) Dan

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Dan that sounds like the best reasons ever, no complaints haha. Hope you grabbed a waffle and fries or 5 as well

[@IAMDANREEVE]

@@DanegerAndStacey LOTS of fries. Although I am partial to "Chipsy King" in the Netherlands... all they sell are fries/chips!

[@keeganjsolomon4870]

Bought the book, looking forward to reading it.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Good stuff, Keegan. Enjoy!

[@RexWaldron]

Oh yes, we've had to run in an airport! Twice in fact, and both on the same journey to India from London Heathrow last summer. First time was because my other half and my daughter got carried away in the duty free perfume shop at Heathrow - son and I were frantically trying to call them but they weren't picking up, so my son sprinted to collect them. Then (like for you here) the first flight was delayed and we had a 1 hour changeover in Doha which was reduced to around 20 minutes. So it was more running for us. But we made it! Looking forward to the Brussels vlogs. :)

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Once is enough to feel that stress, Rex, hopefully there's no 3rd times a charm for you and the family then!

[@vytc123]

Can't wait to see you video's on the food!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

The food is sooooo good! Netherlands 10000% on the list, not sure about this year though

[@boov9119]

800den is a fixed price with the company you used to get to the international airport from any part of the city of Skopje - it's actually the cheapest taxi you can get, compared to other companies that will charge you by the kilometer which which end up costing at least 1500den (almost double) considering the distance of the airport from the city. Other cheaper option is the airport shuttle bus ... but I am not exactly sure how much it costs or if it's frequent, although I've been seeing the airport shuttles a lot recently driving around the city. Also great cardio before you get to all the chocolate, fries and beer goods in Belgium :P

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We needed the cardio first, just making room haha. 800 seemed decent, we were happy with that.

[@nox101]

Plan to go to Belgium (and surrounding countries) next month...👍🏼

[@miszced]

Running is always a good workout!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Without bags, sure haha

[@miszced]

@@DanegerAndStaceythen with the bags it a bonus!

[@thewanderslutjucaso1009]

You need to visit Delirium street which holds the World Guinness record with more than 2000 types of beer :)

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Oh we did 🍺 1,954 left to try 🤣

[@Sashaaa17]

Omg yes this has happened to me when I was in Europe last year. Our flight from Athens to Doha, Qatar was delayed. So we literally had a sprint to the boarding gate to catch our long 17.5hr flight back to New Zealand. I swear, I have never ran so fast in my life 😂

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Oh shit that's not a flight you want to miss! We were panicked because it's never ideal, but a Euro flight is easier replaced. The longest leg in the world (is that still the case?) not so much!

[@Sashaaa17]

Daneger and Stacey I know! That’s why we legged it like mad people to the boarding gate. I think it still is as far as I’m aware.

[@michellewinfrey7653]

Yeah we were meant to go to Crete in june but missed the plane.no option to travel and insurance company was closed ,so a week at home instead.👎going to Hvar next weekend so hopefully we make this plane😱😫🤣

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Oh Michelle that's actually heart breaking!! Fingers crossed for Hvar success

[@lailaagrado]

Must see Brussels, Brugge, and the beach!

[@lailaagrado]

The good thing is that is a kinda smaller airport, if it was Frankfurt you would never made it on time...gosh the bad flashback i got from this video... :'(

[@DanegerAndStacey]

There's no way we would have made it in a larger airport. Guessing you've had the same struggles then haha?

[@lailaagrado]

@@DanegerAndStacey yep, and it was on my b-day, and i had bunch of people waiting me in the Amsterdam, the great thing was that on the next flight they freed a sit for me, otherwise i would slept in the Frankfurt airport, and it is one of the biggest in the world....kinda like Heathrow...

[@martinc.720]

That was just some extra cardio before eating all the Belgian food :-P I always say that if you travel for more than a few days and everything goes according to plan, you're doing it wrong ahah A change of plan sure is an inconvenience, especially when travelling is part of your job, but as long as you're safe, I guess one just has to accept that these things happen.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Those are wise words... if you travel often and it goes smoothly you're either lying or doing it wrong for sure!

[@cristi29m]

Unfortunately the weather in Belgium is awfull right now :(

[@bfourney]

Probably why they’re there now when the rates are much lower

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Doesn't change how beautiful Brussels is, wow!

[@francescadiana]

I have been watching you guys so much I noticed that I started doing the "hm" like Dane does when he speaks. Help

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Send hm help!!! Haha

[@lailaagrado]

Belgium have one more thing -sea food! ♥

[@DanegerAndStacey]

YES! It's amazing

[@Orchishman]

Getting late. Need to run. Might miss the flight. Doesn't matter, the camera keeps rolling. Vlog life😎

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Haha I knew I'd regret not capturing at least something

[@uniama29]

I have been stressing about check in with Austrian as well, I couldn't figure out if it was online or what...!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We still checked in online, just the bag drop/check in desks didnt open until like 90 minutes before the flight

[@nenawineoracle546]

Goodbye to you as well, miss you already ;)

[@DanegerAndStacey]

C ya!

[@arijanitrexhepi2215]

I live in belgium but i was born in macedonia here in belgium its not the best weather

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Do you like it?

[@purberri]

Don’t use pods, they add to plastic waste!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Fair point.

[@sofluffyunicorn]

Visit Antwerp !!!!

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Heard such good things... only Brussels though sadly

[@sofluffyunicorn]

@@DanegerAndStacey Maybe next time !!!

[@robinsherlock6678]

Don't use coffee capsules.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

Fair point, Robin

[@wolfriderpack]

😍😍

[@DanegerAndStacey]

🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏼‍♀️ 🤣

[@staceyvergis2011]

Close call 😅that's sufficient cardio for the rest of the year!

[@jameslittle3931]

We all appear foolish from time to time it's not minding it when it happens is the trick.

[@DanegerAndStacey]

So true - at this point we were just thinking make the flight and who gives a sh*t haha

[@nikolajagur5551]

Goodbye

[@sxxxxftg]

Come to Holland🤩😊

[@DanegerAndStacey]

We wish - next year
