S22EP22 | SPAIN We Found a real gem in BURGOS 🇪🇸

[@alejandromoral_]

That boat sculpture you were looking at was a tribute to the founder of Buenos Aires (born in Burgos). Nice video!

[@WeWillNomad]

Oh wow, thanks for that info and for watching! 👍😊

Showing off your multifaceted talents, Andre! What a bonus that you can do all these things! Lovely video... interesting bridge, amazing Amazon, pretty yellow fields - canola? Of course the castle & cathedral are impressive, but those bare trees are so attractive too!

[@WeWillNomad]

The trees are very interesting - they are Spanish Plane Tree from what we've learned and heavily pruned although they provide a lot of shade in summer. What's really cool is that small branches are woven with adjoining trees which eventually grow together in a single branch.

[@lisa_the_nomad]

I also love those trees! Well, if you travel in a 20 year old campervan, you need to learn to fix LOTS of things! 😂

[@davidadebruyn2653]

Wow, that magic of Amazon👌 Burgos looks like a real gem. I don't understand anything about those batteries, but my husband thinks it great 👍Hope it really makes your travel easier.🤞 Safe travels🤩🤩

[@WeWillNomad]

Thanks Davida! Hopefully next time we pass Burgos we can spend a bit more time there. It's also on the Camino de Santiago.

[@lisa_the_nomad]

@Davida 🤣 I always get so nervous doing electrical work! Luckily Andre hasn't blown up too many things... Yet! 😜

Beautiful castle! That next place looks out of this world....I can't wait to see your trip into northern France. I am planning a trip starting in France from Australia and doing a smallish loop on Central Europe in Sept.... .. stunning content as always. safe travels :)

[@WeWillNomad]

Thanks Sam! Sneak preview - apart from our first few days the weather in France has been fantastic! We first thought we'd breeze through France this time but we 're managing to get stuck a bit! 😋😋

This seems to be a very interesting place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!

Well worth a visit! Enjoy your travels!

Thank you!

[@susie9893]

Another great video! Bit of a mish-mash thematically but still equal parts interesting and enjoyable. Thanks for sharing that setup with us. How's it working out??

[@WeWillNomad]

Yes! Burgos was such a surprise and we would have loved to explore it in warmer weather. 😬 Alas, back then we were on a mission north. The bike battery contraption works brilliantly. We actually got a 2nd bike battery at a later point (for longer rides) and have used it quite a bit to bail us out when the solar is low.

What's it like sleeping in the camper in cold weather? Do you have any heating?

[@WeWillNomad]

It's not bad as the insulation is good. We do have a heater system - gas powered boiler which uses an electric fan to push warm our to ducts opening in strategic places around the van. As it's a small space it heats up very quickly. The biggest challenge becomes managing humidity levels.

[@Nordkapp65]

What month was it, given it was that cold.

[@WeWillNomad]

it was the last week of April - perhaps we just got unlucky with such cold weather. 😬

[@Nordkapp65]

@@WeWillNomad Wow, I stayed at a campsite near Burgos last day of September before getting the ferry back from Bilbao. It wasn't too bad then but would have expected warmer weather for April. Thanks

[@WeWillNomad]

we also expected warmer weather for April! Next time.. 😀

[@georgesfeydeaufeydeau6235]

@@WeWillNomad I spent the first nine years of my life there. It's one of the coldest towns in Spain. Even in August the swimming pools were almost numbing. But I love Burgos.

[@WeWillNomad]

@@georgesfeydeaufeydeau6235It was a real surprise find for us and although it was cold we enjoyed looking around.
