The Incredible Mediterranean Island of CORSICA

[@nickpapagiorgio5056]

There is a mysticism that I discovered being an expat living in Corsica for the past 5 years that after exploring many places and traveling to various parts of the world that I have never seen or felt anywhere else. Ajaccio and the coast smells of cypres and perfume in the evening breeze and the sunrises and sunsets here are magical and remind you of a Picasso or Cezanne landscape. So glad you have finally added this amazing island to your travel videos!!!! Bonifacio is one of my favorite places on the island!

[@steviec8370]

One of the most beautiful places on the planet. One Island with so many different and unspoilt scenics.. Stunning

[@effie-Toronto]

The beaches were so beautiful ...Gabe you are brave to swim in the cold sea

[@tombuddy100]

Corsica is amazing, as well as other Mediterranean islands. The water at the beaches there looks so clear.

[@vesnastihovic7014]

Very beautifully captured..

[@Psyboy007]

What I love about your video is essence of originality & individuality in it...You know that quote," simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" .It suits you🙌

[@Swampzoid]

Stunning place. I love those stairs you climbed up looking for the fort.

[@dansouth2088]

We've not been to Corsica but it's on our list! Sardinia is great, so hopefully you'll go there next and we can relive some good memories!

[@LuizAlleman]

The Mediterranean never gets old👌

[@chrisbrown8748]

Much respect to Gabe for always making his bed and cleaning up his room before showing it in a video🙌🏽

[@marklucas8795]

Nice video as ever ! Love it when you show your snacks / meals !

[@cindybruin4888]

Great video G, such a beautiful place. Good on you for braving the cold water. The beaches are amazing looking, bet they are packed in summer.

[@iammaxhammer]

I can smell the herbacious shrubs through my screen! That desert like landscape is super captivating. Never been to Corsica thugh I have flown over it on my way to Sardinia, my second home. If you ever get to go I suggest checking out the town of Bosa, 1 hour south of Alghero, the northwestern port city. The winding coastal road from there to Bosa is world famous for it's beauty overlooking the mediterranean. Bosa itself is a super picturesque (all the buildings aredifferent colors) quiet town with a rich history. It also houses a 1,000 year old castle which was a stronghold for the local population during the moorish invasions from north Africa!

[@steviec8370]

Good insight, but Corsica is in a different league to be honest. Sardinia is absolutely lovely in places and spots, most of the best ones nearest to Corsica.. no coincidence there. ...but Sardinia also has large areas of bland scenery - lot's and lot's of tourists too.. Corsica is just stunning...almost all of it. From north to south and east to west. I urge you to go and see what lies just north of you.

Wowww Corsica Island is Paradise for The Traveller,.Highly recommend for Summer.Vacations for the family and friends, Thanks sir Gabe for your wonderful walk around tour video Godbless from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Vhin 🙏🙂🙂🙂😍❤️👍👏👍👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@hetty43]

Looks so old style French at times yet Corsican. Looks a great place to visit. Nice video 👍

[@summerisonthursday5239]

Haha that cold water is what we have to put up with here in English Summers! Still beautiful 😍

[@soumyadeeplovestoexplore6631]

Quite a lovely and peaceful paradise and the view up there in 8:14 feels like a pathway to heaven.

[@yosemitedam9607]

A friend of my grandfather was captured in North Africa during WW 2 and held as a POW on Corsica. He spent the rest of the war there. It’s cool to get some perspective on the place

[@fieldbee3211]

You're always taking us to these amazing places. @15:00 the wonderful salt sculpted tree almost stands alone. I hope someday to see this island in person. Salute to you Gabriel!

[@Anonymous_Prole]

As Terence McKenna said, travelling is a psychedelic experience, hence why we call it a "trip". And your videos, with their stunning vistas and immersive atmosphere, certainly have a psychedelic feel to them.

[@NN-qk7wn]

Water looks magical, but web says temperatures of Corsican waters now are just 13 C. Congrats for brave jump and swim!

[@iworkfortravel]

Very nice area Gabe that Beach!

[@goostrey4210]

While Bonifaccio might host some of the Red Bull cliff diving, it is also held in many other places, such as the Ilheu de Vila Franca do Campo, just off the south coast of Sao Miguel Island in the Azores. It's an amazing volcanic cone, partly submerged, just a few minutes by boat from the main island and used as a beach destination by locals when it's not being used for diving.

[@terrynasonisasupervillain9017]

Nice video

[@Brooklyn6k]

Yeah the water is cold 🥶 still catching up

[@live.love.travel5720]

Crystal clear water 💧

[@biomanization]

Gabe, are you going to Porto Cervo, Sardegna, the playground of the rich and famous?

[@stereomaster4231]

Corisca is truly one of Europe's beautiful hidden gems! Let's hope we'll be able to continue to travel there safely for the foreseeable future #StopPutin #NoWar

[@hbasilanmnz6888]

That music at 6:00 hahahahahaha it felt like you were in silent hill

[@paulg0170]

Why don’t you try something I don’t think has been done before? Visit Tristan Da Cuna ? The most remote island on earth. It’s an English settlement. It has broadband. There are also some other remote outpost islands as well. Great video. Thanks.

[@goostrey4210]

It would take Gabe too long to get there, and would costs a lot... flights from South Africa to St Helena (itself a pretty spectacular destination) then a ship to Tristan. And there's not much there to see. St Helena pr Ascension Island would be a better choice because they have airfields, but I doubt you'd get permission to get to the latter. Still, the Vaga brothers went to Ascension.

[@rumik-stahnke6512]

Thumbs up 👍😁

[@huacamaya119]

Beautiful place and hopefully stays that way, cause the world maybe rocked once again. Stay safe. By the way Corsica looks like a human hand with the index finger pointing north. Observation ☺️

[@cheriedodd9358]

Wow what a stunning Island. Didnt know anything about it until watching your video. One request... Can you please move your camera slower. It was making me feel very giddy! . Maybe that's because I'm watching your channel on a big screen?

[@S.Huskic]

I didn’t dare to jump into the waters of the Arabian Gulf in February because it was a bit chilly and look at you… 😃 taking a swim on Corsica. I think I would get hypothermia 😟

[@robcanad]

Feels very strange watching these videos of Gabe walking around without a care while we are in worst geopolitical crisis since WW2

[@andrejsimonovski4642]

After seeing the World, and if you need to retire, where would you live and have a home?

[@stefpix]

The small islands in the strait between Corsica and Sardinia are amazing. The Polynesia of the Mediterranean.

[@junipersnow1]

Correction... My Great Grandfather was born on the Island Ischia.. You might plan to check it out this trip or someday ??? thanks

[@kulik03]

Not a single tourist in sight...what a shame, this place is really underrated

[@wilfredotorres6628]

Hi Gabriel, Oh yes you got the continental breakfast nice choices with all the walking you do you expend a lot of energy. Those forts are impressive but they are obsolete in today's world with the explosive technology those forts would be wiped out in minutes. The beaches are very nice I bit cool for this time of year may be in Sardinia the waters are warmer further south.

[@rocco...]

You need to make a video "If I had $10 million in the bank, where and why I would live here places in the world".

Gabriel, we are at war now. Please come back home

As I have traveled the world and watched countless travel vlogs I realize how fortunate we in the USA have been to avoid being overrun again and again by foreign powers. My heart goes out to the millions of people who have endured this throughout history. Being overrun by your next door neighbor seems the worst.

[@stefpix]

it allowed creating thriving cultures, intermarriage, mixing the genes, having different styles of architecture. There is a silver lining. Isolation leads to tribalism.
