Hi Fellow Travelers,
My name is Lukasz and I am based out of Chicago. I have been traveling solo since 2016. Travel has been my passion since I was a little kid but more recently, more people began reaching out and encouraging me to start sharing my adventures which is why I decided to start this channel; to share my experiences through my eyes and my camera lens.
I hope to provide some useful insights as well as encourage more people to get out of their comfort zones and try something new! Hope you enjoy!

That was fantastic. Always enjoy your videos! Very well done, and you were probably well done from the heat by day's end!...😂😂
It was not easy! But i kept my hiking to a minimal! 2-3 miles at most because that heat is BURNING 🥵 but I’m happy with how it all turned out
I’ve never been to Texas but these are a bunch of great reasons to visit!
I specifically dedicated a lot weekend because each area of the park is unique! Two days is a minimum! There are also other state parks nearby that you can add to your visit
Hope you enjoyed this video from Big Bend National Park! As I continue my adventures throughout this beautiful park, I want to give you all the information to visit! You can see my first day in Big Bend as I explore the Boquillas Canyon, cross over to Mexico 🇲🇽 and soak in the hot spring: th-cam.com/video/WxVsHNXXy_Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qlSuyTZ3p5G2FWqu
Where are people?
Probably home because it was Sunday. It’s a very small capital city.
at 10:02, the sign. are motorbikes or motorcycles (the slower ones like 50ccm) or bikes not allowed? which one is it because im going on motorbike next year ^^ also for the subseatunnels, can i drive with my motorbike? i hope so
You can ride motorcycles in Faroe Islands. I did not come across any restrictions. I also did not see many motorcyclists throughout my stay so you may be lonely there
@@LukeGeeTravels okay, thanks for the quick answer
@Luxtrooper of course! Have a great time! If you have any more questions, i have more videos on my channel from this trip
Im going next year to faroe islands and can´t wait BUT the fees.....you have to pay for evvvveerything....meh
Not everything - I know recently they added Kallur Lighthouse as a fee but there are a TON of hikes you can still enjoy for free!
I was there last week, the wind was so stronge that I didn´t have courage enought to walk ahead the Lighthouse, the trail was very narrow 😅
Good call! You have to think of safety, it is so steep there! I hope you still enjoyed it! The small lighthouse has a nice ditch you can take cover from the nasty wind
We live in Texas, but have yet to make it to Big Bend. Definitely on the bucket list if I don't get too old first. Lol. Thanks for sharing.
There is tons to do! Even just driving through big bend, the ross maxwell scenic drive is a must! I’ll actually have a video of it tomorrow!
Enjoyed that very much. Your enthusiasm was off the charts! ☺️🙂
Thanks so much! That means a lot, I love to be able to travel and share those experiences with the rest of my viewers
Boquillas is a cute little town. We took the little boat across the Rio instead of walking across. It was fun. We just started putting out out Texas vlogs also😊
Just saw it! At least ya’ll went in a NORMAL time, i was there in PEAK heat (July) it was 110+ every day😅
Very amazing footage you were able to capture. Thanks again!
Thank you for the kind comment! I was veryy lucky to see these animals up close:)
Meine Familie, kommt von dort im Jahre 1800-1900, danke für den Report..❤Grüße aus Deutschland❤
sehr schön! du solltest mal vorbeikommen, wenn du noch nie da warst!
Looking up at those canyon walls makes a man feel so small and insignificant.
It really does! That’s exactly how i felt! I wish i could have taken a rafting trip through there
@@LukeGeeTravels love a good rafting trip. I always leave a little undone so I have a reason to return.
@BobI-jb4rk i can find 5 different reasons to come back! Plenty of activities to do! I definitely dont recommend July like i dod
@@LukeGeeTravels I just checked the conditions for late November. Highs of 50 to 70 and most overnights are close to the freezing mark!
@@ianstuart5660 i did it in July when it was scorching heat of 110+ 🥵
This is the first video from my 3 day series exploring the Big Bend National Park! Have you ever been to this part of Texas?
Incredible! Wow, I did not know that such places even existed! This is awesome Luke
It was soo cool driving between the ocean and the dunes but it takes skill to not get stuck!
You captured some unbelievable footage! Well done
Seeing the Leopard within feet was breathtaking let me tell you!
Did you know that flying Drones in GA State parks is prohibited?
I researched prior to my visit but did not find anything. Thanks for letting me know!
Seems like a ghost town. No people at all in the streets.
It was a Sunday, most people spent time at homes with their family. I’m sure that was the case here
this is amazing! Are the trails down ok for inexperienced hikers? We are more “walkers”. Love your adventures!
They are! To get to the bottom it’s a leisurely walk down to get there and once there, it’s all flat and you can admire everything from the bottom! I just recommend having a map, just in case
i always appreciate how most houses in all Northern European countries are bright coloured to counter the long grey spells of winter climate yet in good old miserable England with its minimum of 90 grey miserable days every year , the majority of home owners still insist on a homogeneous White or Magnolia to grace their properties’ exterior. The English call this “Neutral” whilst meaning how they lack imagination & individuality.
It really does put you in a better mood when you see some colors! I haven’t explored much of England but in Edinburgh they have.. is it Victoria street? Lined with colorful shops
so glad to see moses church in jordan. my new bike is kent "giordano
Nice production ❤
Thanks so much Michael!
Loved the luxury hotel. Sometimes it’s so worth it to stay so close to the park.
It was a very nice change! Quite expensive but everything included in this stay and the unique animals I got to see was totally worth the price!

What is in your pack? Or what do i need to bring?
It depends. You can stay in refugios and pay for a room in refugio chileno, paine grande or grey. You can also opt to camp and you have the option to rent a sleeping bag and tent so you don’t need to bring anything. Food you can also buy at the campsites I have talked about. What I had in my bag was food, sleeping bag and some camera gear + raincoat and clothes
Nice video, thank you!
Glad you found it helpful!:)
Beautiful 🤩
Thank you!
Can we swim in Kolsay or Kaindy lake ? planning my trip to KZT next year :))
Unfortunately no, swimming is not allowed. You can rent a paddle boat on Kolsai Lakes though!
Well done!!
Thank you :)
I'm from the area and grew up in Pisgah Forest and the Blue Ridge Parkway. I'm 72 now and can't believe the changes in the forest, most not for the good. My grandparents, great grandparents and family would not be happy about what people call progress either. I love Pisgah, have so many memories and it makes me sad.
Im sorry to hear that! What kinds of things have you noticed as a change for the worst?
It must be so peaceful and quiet
Depends on when you visit! Summers can get quite busy but when you start walking around the island, outside of the main street, you can find plenty of peace!
What a neat experience to be able to drive through a national park and stop whenever you want. You saw some amazing animals especially the cheetah!
It was amazing! My friend, who was with me on this trip, was spotting animals in would have never caught with my own eyes😅 so definitely travel WITH someone to be the spotter!
Etosha National Park looks like such an incredible place for a self-drive safari! 🚗🦁 The variety of wildlife and those sunrise and sunset views by the watering holes must be unforgettable. Thanks for all the tips on where to stay and what to expect - definitely adding this to my travel list! 🇳🇦🌅
It was amazing! I went with a friend and he spotted a lot of animals which was super helpful! I am working on a Guide go Namibia video which I’ll be releasing at the start of next year with everything from cmapsite/hotel booking to itineraries for each of the places I’ve visited
Very nice video , I can tell you upgraded your video equipment, the quality is superb, keep it up, greetings from Chicago
Thank you for your comment and glad you can see the difference! I primary shoot with my sony camera for the last 6 months
Great video Luke! Beautiful animals and so well captured, almost like watching animal planet
Thanks so much! I always strive to make the best videos possible:)
What a great way to see these majestic animals, in their natural habitat. Love the idea of a self-guided tour!
The only way to see them - in their NATURAL habitat❤️ and yes! There are maps in the visitor center where people share where they have last seen the animals but it all comes down to patience and a little bit of luck!
Oh my gosh all the wildlife! This looks AMAZING! What a dream! This video is amazing!
Thank you thank you! I don’t like zoos so many years ago I made myself a promise if i want to see an animal, I will go see it in its natural habitat

The biggest richess in a country: People... where are them?
It was a Sunday when I explored Torshavn, many people were probably home with their families
We were thinking the area looked like Joshua Tree in California. Then you commented how it looks like Joshua tree. 😊 Beautiful area.
Great minds think alike right?! The rocks are definitely the same.. except this place just seems to rise into the sky in the middle of NOWHERE!😳
this stuff gave me diabetes: 2:33
It’s worth a try, you can just try a piece of it
did you do it in august? is a guide a requirement for that month?
I did it in November, right around thanksgiving. No need for a guide, you can do it all yourself 😊
All the places that you share with us are beautiful, I like all your videos, you explain them very well, I want all people to see them because they are beautiful ❤
I appreciate your warm comments, it means a lot! It’s the reason why i make these videos.. to showcase lesser known places to the world😊
Very inspiring to watch from Miami airport as I’m heading back after exploring Miami, South Beach and Everglades National Park.
That sounds fun! The only thing that interests me in Florida ARE the national park! Have a great time Bob!

It was definitely worth it. It's such a beautiful place and I'm happy I could share it with you!
