Your potential is unparalleled mate. With the quality of your work, I assumed you'd be at like 4.6 million subs. You'll get there in time!

[@Itchban]

That is very high praise man. Thanks a lot!!

[@rtyughvbn12]

Need beautiful assistant.

[@Vendzor]

@@rtyughvbn12 Don't we all?

[@bayleysmith5453]

This footage and your photography skills are insane!!! You’ve captured NZ perfectly and the colours! Amazing work man - looking forward to seeing more 📸 🙌🏼

[@Itchban]

Thanks a lot man! I might try make something short in NYC in a few weeks. Japan for sure tho!

[@rutwikpatel5656]

12:39 - The astro Timelapse shot has left me speechless. The ominous soundtrack to accompany it as well as the small woosh sounds for the clouds. The whole thing put together for just a few seconds is a masterpiece - you are a genius itchban

[@imrnismd]

My eyes were glued to the screen. What an entertaining vlog and the views are just epic. Can’t wait for your next travel vlog!

[@Itchban]

Thanks man! Keen to get back to travelling hey

[@reubenfox4448]

This is top tier man, really enjoyable! Keep em coming!

[@user-ds3fb3md2z]

love watching your videos!! keep up the amazing work!

[@maggie0_0]

Love your music with the high quality shot. Amazing!

[@ivansub3473]

I've thoroughly enjoyed your trip. Thanks for taking me along. Your photography is amazing. Loved the drone shots & especially the time lapse. They were spectacular.

[@TarasChuikoChannel]

Amazing story. And your video production is on the top level😉 I got a big dose of motivation to travel. Keep traveling!

[@Itchban]

That's awesome to hear man. Go out there and see the world!

[@vyhung9492]

You are big motivation for me. Keep making these video!

[@lisyamira]

The cinematic shots are awesome (esp. those taken with your drone), and the Airbnb is something to die for. Enjoying both of your NZ vlogs so much!

[@virtualwalksaustralia]

Thanks for sharing this trip with us. You captured the incredible scenery perfectly. 😊 Very much looking forward to your next travel series!

[@Itchban]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@loganyates9077]

this is atleast my second time coming back to watch this as well as the first part, love your videos keep it up

[@enzeda]

loved the sound of the Tui when u left for the drive to Milford.

[@ahmadnadzir3681]

Bro, your vlog is so sick!!! Superb cinematic, everything is so organic and you just like bring the audience there. Everything is so great that i have to type this comment immediately 😂

[@Itchban]

Hahaha thanks man! It really does mean a lot!

[@mikem6071]

I've seen hundreds of NZ travel videos and yours is my favorite! I love how you show the locations on map, give good commentary but not too much. Excellent music choices and AMAZING cinematography skills. I spent 3 months in NZ a couple years ago and I'm going there for 3 weeks for my Honey Moon in April '23! Your video has me sooo excited! Well done!

[@Itchban]

Wow thanks for all the compliments! It means a lot.

[@GLADIATORDRAVEN]

this is so chill

[@naturelover5112]

The nature there is so beautiful and majestic. The kind that makes you not want to disturb with any kind of noise... And just admire it quietly. Everyone should experience that.

[@XenolVlatriX]

Made me happy watching this video. Looking forward to more videos!

[@Itchban]

Thanks for watching!

[@SpacebarWarrior]

It's been a long time since I've seen a good travel vlog. Truly enjoyed it, loved all your timelapses!

[@hrishikeshb]

I’ve been to Milford Sound before but I’ve never seen it like this. Epic video! I can’t wait to go back…

[@ajmorelan]

your footage is amazing! that meteor show was insane and the video as a whole super entertaining and I cant wait for for the next series! I find it fascinating how developed New Zealand looks even though not many people are on the roads

[@Itchban]

Glad you enjoyed it! Yeah I like how preserved a lot of it is still. It was quiet when I went back in April because they just reopened their borders..

[@AngeloXification]

Geez some of these shots are amazing.. The misty mountain calls

[@abubakaradeni7765]

Your vlog is amazing mate! Looking forward to watching your videos again

[@Itchban]

Thank you! Check out my Japan series if you need stuff to watch :)

[@djsororaando]

Your vlogs are super inspiring! You were in Japan at the same time that I was around the pandemic, your series was so nostalgic to watch after I made it back to the states. Ive been slowly building my gear and hope to start my own channel soon, I've learned a lot from you, thanks again!

[@Itchban]

That's awesome man. Just do it hey. Even as a visual diary just for myself I am really glad I did the japan vlogs in the first place.

That's cool!! I wonder if we crossed paths

This is adorable, dude ! Been to NZ, but this one is much cooler than my trip . 👏🏼👏🏼😁😁

[@Itchban]

Thanks!! You can always go back! It is so beautiful.

[@haziqhashim2618]

Man NZ is so beautiful. Probably one of the most beautiful roads to drive ever. Stunning views, hope to go there one day.

It really is! You have to see it in person!

haha all good man only a 2 part series so you're done haha. Thanks for watching man I appreciate it!

[@KillerTacos54]

Gorgeous!

[@yumpotachi9804]

Well made!!!

[@Itchban]

Thank you!

[@rufs6468]

Man I completely forgot about Ferg! Last time was there sitting at the table to the right with two random people I met on top of Roy's peak two days prior and a bloke that worked at the Remarkables These vlogs really do capture the beauty of the landscape. Especially in the Milford Sounds. Way more moody in the rain but if there's a heaven I'm sure this is what it would look like. I honestly don't think I've come across a vlog that's as well put together as yours.

[@louisaklimentos7583]

Lovely video and I remember awhile back you did a video on Australia too!

[@Itchban]

Wow lol that was a very long time ago. Thanks for sticking around!

[@ApexDesignsAU]

So thankful I decided to click this video, this is amazing work dude.

[@Itchban]

Thanks for watching man! More to come soon hopefully.

[@vishshsh]

finally got time to watch; damn that was BEAUTIFUL :') also biting down on the action cam for driving POV was 100% worth it haha

[@Itchban]

haha i need to buy a proper surfer go pro mouth mount. it kept falling out of my mouth cos i was biting onto this tiny plastic bit

[@shubhambhor3652]

Mate it's pretty good your content and the way you are making video with capturing all things handling everything alone. I always wished to travel like this and watching you doing it makes me happy and in future I will travel hope one day we meet.

[@Itchban]

You should definitely give it a go! Safe travels ☺️

[@yyxin]

good stuff!

You are living in the dream!!! Itss so f*cking cooollllllllllll.

Just found your chanel and subscribed of course. Great trip around NZ, would love to see the north Island (Waiheke Island) as well. Maybe you've already shot it, have to check out your old content :). Keep it up man, love the mix of footage, talk and comments on the screen! Love and respect from Sweden!

[@Itchban]

Means a lot! Thank you!

Great vid mate. Milford tunnel giving me Rainbow Bridge vibes haha

[@Itchban]

haha i thought the same. A little more seizure inducing tho haha thanks Mitch

[@imawicked]

Great vdo thanks for this. Love travelling solo sometimes but sometimes get so lonely lol Also very nice pics !!!

[@Itchban]

Haha it does sometimes. It's just something you need to accept I guess haha. This was my first time doing a solo nature trip.

[@catherinecarr3506]

You definitely have to do the same itinerary in winter… different light and of course, snow… makes the mountains seem even grander.

[@Itchban]

Haha I am literally doing it right now. Just finished Mt Cook today

[@MichaelExplores]

Nice one mate! Glad to see you had some awesome conditions for Milford, keep up the content!

[@Itchban]

Thanks man! I think i would have different perceptions of Milford Sound if I had only gone once (one the rainy day for the boat tour). Glad I went the first day but man was it a drive. I did 8+ hours of driving that day.

[@MichaelExplores]

@@Itchban Yeah it's quite out of the way huh 😂 Bit of a mission to get there but so worth it!
