Welcome to our TH-cam channel!
Two working professionals who travel internationally / domestically any time we have the opportunity. Passionate about food, national parks, and exploring worlds old and new.
About Gabriela: Growing up, my family took road trips to national parks and cities in California. I knew that when I became an adult I wanted to explore the world further. At 19, I visited New York City for the first time and this opened up my eyes to the many possibilities and long awaited adventures that I would soon discover.
About Marlon: Ever since I was 7, I wanted to be a filmmaker. I love the art of motion pictures and photography as well as traveling! I figured I can combine my passions here on TH-cam by posting travel vlogs about our latest adventures. Our recent travel has taken us to Paris, Italy, Colorado, Mexico, Thailand, Yosemite, Lake Powell, Big Pine Lakes, and Costa Rica to name a few.
Thanks for watching and for your support!

Awesome video. When did you guys went?
@@PhillipLearnTeach thanks. July 2024.
Wow! Beautiful waterfall! Great experience! 💖
What an amazing experience!
No Kiswahili😢
excellent video
Thanks for a great video! It inspired me to do this hike on 10/09/2024. You were right on, a wonderful hike! Great scenery! I'm 71 years old, and not in great shape. So I had to rest often. I'm glad I spent the day/night before at nearby Mammoth Lakes to acclimate. Andy
@@andycochran-f3d we’re happy that our video was helpful for you and you enjoyed the hike. It is like a painting out there!
Thanks for the info and a great video! Very helpful for my trip. Appreciate it 🙏 💯
@@Njkdlasrtybw of course! We’re happy that the video was helpful, have a wonderful trip in the wilderness!
Just saw your review on AllTrails. Doing this one next week - thanks for the thorough recap. You’re both brave for getting into the water!
@@DenverDM215 no prob! Have a wonderful trip it’s magical out there!
Great video. NICE WORK!
@@JD-yd3sj thank you!
Hi guys, I will try to do at least part of the trail in 10 days--thanks for giving me a good idea of what I am looking at. And thanks for the gorgeous footage!
@@bettinasoestwohner3393 no problem! We hope you have a wonderful time on your hike!
AWESOME GUYS!!
This is so well made!
@@SamTheoddMan thank you!!
@@MarlonAndGabriela yeah!
Lot of good information packed in your videos. Nicely done. Costco Butter Croissants? The best for sandwiches.
Thank you, that really means a lot. Smart N Final actually in Bishop but can’t beat Costco!
Love the video. Great mountain views, beautiful lakes! It's definitely a gem!
@@goldenpanther1028 thank you!
Wow! Another great video. 😊 If a 70 year old can take this hike, then I should be able to take it too. Great scenery!❤
Mountains are calling me and hope to go this week. Will i need mosquito net if i turn around by lake 3? Awesome video!
@@iycrra75 thank you! We don’t think you’ll need one but we always pack them in case because you never know. Better to have it then to not. You can get them on Amazon, at REI or Big 5 for cheap. Enjoy your time in the John Muir Wilderness.
Planning a trip and saw your AllTrails review - I don’t think I can do a full 15 miles in one day so I’m thinking of just going to the first lake- this video really helped!!!
@@northwestitude 15 miles is tough! We’re glad our video and AllTrails review was helpful for you. If you make it to first lake, second lake is only an easy 5 min hike and you’ll want to see it as it’s the crown jewel of all the lakes. Have fun!
Found your video from AllTrails! I can't wait to check this out myself!
@@jobjohnson6047 we hope you enjoy your time on the trail!
Very blissful!
The mountains are hard to beat
Cool!!
Too cool
Nice! I love the color of the water ❤
Would you hike up there?
@MarlonAndGabriela Although I'd like to go hiking up there the whole day. I think my body could only take a two hour hike. 🙂
Very peaceful and relaxing.
Very peaceful and relaxing.
Just look at those views. Such a beautiful sky and h20. Just wow.!
@@nefasventures thanks for the continued support! It is magical out there!
This is a great hike. About 2 1/2 miles in there is a spring coming out of the mountain just below the trail to the right, you can't miss it. Nice cold fresh water year round. I used to refill my water bottles there, really fresh good water!
@@patriot4life386, awesome! Do you have a favorite IE trail that you like to hike?
Wow!! Zanzibar! That place is beautiful! If it's this beautiful on video, I can imagine what it must be like to see it in person ❤
It’s magical!
Great scenery! Great place to experience wildlife it's fullest! Great video! Thank you!

This is amazing! Thank you for sharing guys! Great to see the animals and the Masai community!
@@paulabunn9218 yeah of course! Thanks for watching! The safari experience is incredible and we miss it everyday.
Have you got the name of the company you used
Hi, unfortunately no but there are plenty of vendors on sites such as GetYourGuide and Viator.
The masai people are such beautiful people!! How fun that you're able to interact with them. Marlon I love how you danced with them. ❤

Makes no sense how they built all the stone structures but no technology beyond leaky straw roofs on all the structures.
@@matrox it really is astonishing.
Very beautiful place!
Amazing view 🥰🥰thanks my dear friend 🙏🏻🌹
Beautiful blue sky and water. great footage, awesome video.:)
Thank you
How was the weather? Do you recommend this trail for kids?
Weather was perfect. I recommend it for children that are capable of hiking trails that are 3-5 miles with minimal elevation gain.
One of my favorite winter hikes !
We will be staying at this hotel next month, flying into IGR airport. Im wondering how you got to the hotel from the airport?
Hi! We are happy to share our experience with you! We took a taxi. Should be a good amount outside the airport. Price negotiable and inexpensive but the drive is about 5 min to the national park entrance gate. A shuttle from the hotel will pick you up from there and expect a slow drive (they adhere to the park speed limit). Arrive in about 20 min more or less. Have so much fun Iguazu is magical at first and last light.
@@MarlonAndGabriela thank you for your reply. Another question: did you let the hotel know of your arrival? how do we request for the shuttle to pick us up? thanks
@@myrnakelly1188, hi again! When you arrive to the national park gate there is a reception lobby. It is small and there will be a representative there to call the shuttle for you. You might be welcomed with fresh drinks and small towels as well. No worries at The Belmond continue to reach out if you have more questions. Enjoy!
What a beautiful place! I'm brazilian and want to go there someday 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Looks amazing, and super cool you got that look out spot to yourself early in the morning!
Marlon, GREAT to see you and Gabby traveling again, YO you said you had an injury? you good bro? //// man, I was planning this trip for Dec 2024, how hard was it to get to Iguaza Falls? did you spend time in RIo? The boat ride looked DOPE AF
I ruptured my Achilles in March 2023. I’m okay now still not 100% but considerably better. It’s easy to get to Iguazu. Take a domestic flight from Rio and stay at The Belmond if budget allows or down the street in the town. Spent about 7 days in Rio. It is an underrated and undervisited city.
Awesome views! Great and immersive video!
Wow!! That place will make you not want to leave. Looks so Surreal! ❤
