During late august of 2021 i went on a journey that would change my life forever. It was my first ever solo trip as well as my first overnight wild camping experience. I spent 2 weeks hiking through the Alps of Switzerland, going up and down every day, swimming in freezing waters and setting up my tent in the most surreal locations i could ever imagine, in total covering more than 100 miles. Safe to say that this trip meant a lot to me and i can't wait to hit the trail again.
When it came to editing this video it was no easy task especially when you have 7 hours of footage, the first 2 weeks i spent just thinking which clip to put first in the timeline, i knew what kind of a video i wanted and i did a lot of planning but despite that it still felt like a black piece of paper, now almost 1 and a half months later i'm finally happy with it and i'm super stoked to show it to your here on youtube, any feedback wether positive or negative will be greatly appreciated and if you could share this video amongst your friends and followers it would mean the world to me.
if you have any questions about the film, the shooting or editing process, or my hiking experience feel free to ask in the comments which i will cover in an upcoming behind the scenes video

Let us celebrate our 🔥FIRST MILLION🔥 together, I actually never thought that we'll get here, especially with a short film and not a "best settings for a7sIII" video 😂 Thank You to everyone who's been supporting us, our projects and our journey. It means the world to us! PEACE OUT and have an amazing day everybody 💪🏽😎
congrats
This film deserves more than 1Mio. views!
So beautiful!
I also have been to many places you have shown in your film. Everything you talk about, the feelings and the emotions are said on point!
I would like to connect with you and talk more about your experiences. 😊
Just awesome!
Thank you for the Film!
It took less than 35 seconds for me to hit subscribe. I totally relate, fine work and editing.

I don’t know how many have noticed that almost all clips are hard cuts and no special effects. Also, almost all are recorded on a tripod. No gimbal. The narration and the scenes felt interwoven. Amazing work on all aspects. 👌🏻
Simple cuts just feels so natural ease to eyes.
Exactly! And they feels pretty straight forward, so natural and not distractions. Loved it.
For me it was a bit boring. nice clips and naration, but clips are so slow for me, and i really like effect and hyperlapse.
@@IZrduw blehhhhh
Nice analyses
07:26
"They will call you quiet because you're perfectly happy in silence. They will call you weak because you avoid conflict and drama. They will call you boring for not being an extrovert. They will call you wrong for having different beliefs. They will call you a loner because you're comfortable being on your own. They will call you lost for not following the same route as others... Let them call you what they want, you don't have to play the part they want you to play."
Probably the best part of the video. Those that mind, don't matter & those who matter don't mind.
I love this sentence，it is great ！
but people are quiet when they need to speak up when there is a wrong situation going on, people are weak when the situation demand you to be strong in the name of equality and justice, people are boring and unimaginative when expose to new possibilities. People want to be alone because they cannot take the pressure of being responsible to someone other than themselves. People take the wrong path just to prove a point rooted in faulty ideologic.
@@dutchmilk not being responsible for anyone is a very great thing why would I wanna be responsible for other human being when I can enjoy life by myself . Marriage is bullshit
@@dutchmilkbut what if most of the situations in the person's life don't need for them to be not alone, to be strong, to be not boring, to be extroverted etc, but they're still expected/forced to just because of social norms and stereotypes? It isn't always escapism. So one could respond by saying: if there isn't a need and still you're forced to do this, then you've made a mess of your own life and given away your freedom. - So that is why we claim what is ours back and get going alone. Getting rid of the mess. Get creative in our own ways, as our own situations demand. Not the creativity that's pre-determined to be in a box by others.
I'm leaving my comment here, so whenever someone like my comment, I will be able to watch and listen this beautiful scenery and voice again and again.
I'm 57 years old, and lately I feel like I have no purpose. Every week for months on end, I watch this video for inspiration on how to produce my own, and every time your video changes my whole perspective! Thanks for what you did here, it is my medicine.
Jesus
Thank yous film describes my feeling to a "T"
Make your own exploration happen. It can be anywhere.
Do what you love as long as you dont harm or hurt people or yourself. Thats your purpose. To love is the purpose on Earth, my brother.
That was absolutely incredible! Breathtaking work!
Я с твоего Инстаграма привалил сюда, чтобы посмотреть, и правда что то невероятное
Thanks, Alina! Happy to see you here! :)
ALINA is Breathtaking and the film too. :D
We must make our inner self like this
Let us look at our own nature outside and let people see us and forget all their sorrows😇
So much incredible technique working, so little to say. Oh wait, It's a commercial - ok, sb will buy it. The problem with todays young storytellers is; they have all the equipment in their hands - but are totally confused about what's making stories really is: expression of the emotions ppl experience when they see, the single, the individual story is just a not a single thing, it's about all of us; that's the core of
the old saying: there is no better way to beginn a story than: Once upon a time, there was.... Truth is, you will be judged for your blabla... This world of telling is on an horrible downward spirale, where ppl. can't discern anymore the easiest things concerning the meanings of their lifeless overaesthetically blown up artworks...
Poetry, nature, philosophy, life lessons, photography, nature, art , comfort all in 1 place
This color grading was insanely beautiful! That is a master piece, congrats brother!!!
I don't see any color grading at all. Seems like all clips are natural. May be just a bit of slow mo in some parts... 😊
Just realized it. It is funny how life seeks for novelty and innovation, but doesn't even appreciate things that deviate from the norm.
For the first time in a very long time I was drawn into a video, I didn’t want it to end. A true masterpiece
exactly that.
This video just simply got you speechless, all the walking back and forth to record and fetch the camera and what's more the shots are just so beautiful with waiting for the perfect lighting and shadow situation
This is not just 8 min or so, this is a work of art that took months. Nicely Done Bro.
" Ironically I feel more comfortable here than back in the city because even a bad day of hiking is a day you will remember" Hits hard
One of the best short films I've ever come across, it really just flowed right through my heart and soul, it's an absolutley amazing piece of art.
That was what i wanted to achieve while making this, thank You!
The visuals, the commentary, the absolute devotion to tell an amazing story. Thank you for putting this into the world for all of us to see!

Love it!
Glad You enjoyed it Mate!
felt it. such a vibe and yes, they have called me more than mentioned. but we still out here. keep going legend
You got a 'vibe' from watching a video? Knob!
Same bro
That's what you call simplitcity at its best. No fancy transitions, not much camera movements but man, all I can see is it was so engaging and so moving that I wanna go on another solo trip and film something like this. People might not know but it takes a lot to film yourself at such higher altitudes as you're already tired physically and mentally that it makes you wanna give up and also makes you end on a creative block because of all the fatigue. But kudos to you man that you managed to keep up with everything and create so much beautifully composed shots.
I have never seen a youtuber with this kind of cinematography skills 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🫡🫡🫡
"Hey Tim - The Story of my Life." You're welcome ;) Otherwise the guy is really talented :)
you guys have to see Cars with Luke!
I totally agree! This is beautiful and quite humbling! 🥰😍☺
We love to be alone, but we're not really alone.... This short film and comment section proves it. Made my soul smile! Beautiful job!!
I've watched this video more than 10 times, and I always say the same thing: the mood and atmosphere are just perfect!!! I love it! I'm looking forward to the beautiful spring and summer days to climb these mountains and trails! Congrats on the time invested in this video.
This captures basically every aspect of why I fell in love with hiking and being on the trail!
Awesome work!
"...even a bad day of hiking is a day you'll remember." That hit hard. Knowing that routine 'can' mean the loss of meaning since we remember sameness less...appreciate this film - thank you!
Thank you. This movie is outstanding on so many levels. The footage, the editing and the color grading all work together to capture the viewers attention so the message can both be heard and felt as each scene unfolds. Well done. On a personal note I grew up in the analog era well before the internet came along and I never felt my childhood suffered from the lack of connectivity we have today, but after watching this video I can say it would have been nice knowing there were others like me out there. I spent most of my youth exploring the woods, rivers and streams near my home because it gave me a freedom and comfort I couldn’t find anywhere else. Cheers!
the dynamic range of A7S3 and your grading are at an other level, absolutely love it! wanna hear more about it in the BTS
" Even a bad day of hiking is a day you will remember." Love that. goes to show what happens when we open up our perspective of being in the moment, instead of finding things to pass the time. The reason that those certain activities we find to pass the time, is because we are choosing to disconnect. Not always a bad thing, but how much more powerful is the message that this video shows, that being; instead of choosing to disconnect we are choosing to .. connect. Excellent work. Thanks for the message.
Finally i can say i have watched a story i have always wanted to watch. Being a filmmaker i feel a little jealousy that i was not the maker but this is an inspiration, this is definition... This is everything life is.
More people need to see films like this! Excellent work brother! 🙌🏼
I hope they see it, thanks bro
Так, більше таких відео пробуджують до життя ) дякую автору
Well done! Not only brilliant cinematography, but a message that resonates with anyone who understands the power of just being!
This is absolutely gorgeous, the shots, the sounds. Everything just fits so beautifully together. I'm speechless.
Wow! Beautiful shots, simple yet powerful edit and such a strong message. I'm happy that this gem popped up on my feed! Well done!
I appreciate your words, photos, and drone footage. I got to experience a brief stint of this Sam kind of experience all over the US myself and nothing made me feel more alive, free, and content. I can't wait to jump back into it when I'm financially able to again. City life is no longer anything I crave. "I leave reason behind and leap into bewilderment." - Rumi
Nature never fails to astound me. What a gift to be on Planet Earth!
Beautifully shot , and definitely something I can relate too . Lived and worked in NYC for over 35 years , and the stress level was through the roof sometimes . getting out in nature was therapy , a healing of sorts .
Celebrating the millions of us who are Introverts... who don't Crave Cluttered Minds. Standing ovation for this film... and for all of us... sharing our interests together, although we're all separate and at peace. Rec: The book "Quiet" by Susan Cain!

This short is amazing. Specially first 45 seconds, that sound effect, base and video transformation, kinda epic editing. Great WORK.
I had goosebumps watching this. Literally felt that I was there. I didn't know that I needed this. No extra effects, just pure nature and its stillnes. The stillness and the calm in this video was so contagious. I feel nothing else but inspired to be this away from the world or I should say this close to the WORLD.
Absolutely gorgeous. The color, the angles, the narrative, sounds, all of it was great - well done!
”Even a bad day of hiking, is a day you’ll remember”.🧡
Your normal and most of the world has been disconnected from normal for way to long and so they do not know what normal is. May Christ Jesus thats in all and above all continue to show you His wonderful works He created for us.
I can't tell you how many times I've watched this video...it explains perfectly who I am...nature is my therapy....thank you for this
This channel is so underrated! Beautiful film!
I so get you. I do feel different and love hiking, being one with nature. I also enjoy my own company, peace and stillness. I absolutely loathe following the crowd. I always knew I was different. Thank you for reminding me of who I truly am.
One of the best and most gorgeous outdoor videos I have ever seen. Beautiful editing. So peaceful and majestic. Does stir memories of hikes I have taken. Great job bringing this together.
This was an amazing journey, the cinematography was outstanding. you're a great storyteller and I appreciate this content during these crazy times. You've reminded me that I need to get back to the mountains. Time to get my tent out! thank you brother
Absolutely stunning! You perfectly explain how I feel in this film, and why I love spending time alone in nature!
7:19 if you look closely at the top of the mountain peak, you can see a cross. What a win.
Wow! The detailing and quality of this short film could not be expressed in words. Real treasure is hidden here.
J'aimerais bien le rencontrerai un jour .
Wow! This is one of the best short films I’ve watched this year, from the visuals, sound design, composition and the way you created all this emotion through your voice combined with the music was truely amazing!
this is incredible, truly inspiring and so very humbling. sound design was on point, and the narration to; definitely told a story that so many of us can resonate with - well done !
It's one of the best shorts I've ever seen! I congratulate you for doing what you did and also for sharing those beautiful words. There are people lost in this world, living lives that don't belong to them. They should break the structure in which they live and realize that they have a world to discover, and this video can show them that.
Thanks for sharing your amazing work.
For a long time, I have been feeling what you just described but could not understand why. Thank you for putting them into words. Now I know I'm not alone.
Sony should reach out you themselves! This deserves to be part of their showcase series! Absolutely, breathtaking, WOW! Like I can’t get over how amazing this was, simply no words to describe this video! UNREAL :)
I agree! This is breathtakingly BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Absolutely! This is too Awesome man ! 💖
Every single frame is absolutely stunning in all its levels, can't imagine how all this shooted alone
Agree, this was amazing! Giving me a lot of inspiration for my videos! ☺️
You showcase the beauty of nature and the beauty of doing what resonates with you.
this is beautiful. i can relate to the words even tho i love big city life in a foreign cosmopolitan city that never sleeps i crave nature as a child who used to climb trees and sit in them to eat fruit and go up into the mountains of my wonderful jamaica. some of these shots i took similar ones just going to school on my phone. maybe not as sharp or cinematic but i have never wanted to bust out my sony a7iii harder to harness it's power. there is a gift in creatives that is our birth right. the way we impact life and the human condition is marvellous. i have been so lost. but i've been home in myself this whole time. just listening to much too the world and not enough to myself. never stop making films. we need them
This is a masterpiece man! I love your images, composition, colorgrading, it would be nice to know which lens you used, picture profile, settings used etc, thanks and keep up the good work!
This resonates with me so much. I aspire to make more moving films like this someday. Speaks not only volumes but waves of action to live free 🔥🏔
So happy to hear that, thank you!
你那视频太乱了
no fancy cut fancy effect, pure human , i need this !
A year after, I had to go through my liked Videos from 1 year ago to look for this video, THIS IS A MASTERPIECE
“Fascination with spending time alone”, I love that and I can relate. Beautiful film and edit, great job!

The story, lines, those Beauuutiful shots!! 😍
Dude, this is a gem. Amazingly done!

Loved it. ❤️👌🏻
I have watched this more than a 100 times, still watching it. This ones a masterpiece!!
Commenting so that every time someone interacts I get brought back to this masterpiece 🙌 Thank you for this inspirational and insightful perspective :)
I feel like this video was made for me. I love nature. Being alone and not told what to do.
This is beautiful 🙏🏼 Storytelling and shots are just on point! Great job! And I fully agree with this mentality, everyone needs a break like this every now and then. I’ve just done the same 2 months ago. A memorable solo trip.
Perfect, stunningly rendered in picture and sound! Thank you, this is my world too.
Man the shots ..... are soo beautifull..... seeing it makes me feel excited
Gah dang the sound design here is flawless! Gives me chills
It's absolutely mindblowing. Everything was just right. I can hardly imagine how much time and effort that took and those shots with the sun right over the ridge and in the right spot ah
Agree 100% - Wow, thank you!
The voiceover, editing, transitions, message..alot of great things to take away here
This is one of its kind work. Truly mesmerizing! That narration at end got me hooked. ❤️
Love the shots the colours the textures and compositions so great
You have no idea how much I can relate to these words.. The scenery is impeccable... Loved the shots and the perspective.
Very well thought out, executed, graded and filled with beautiful wisdom in an unexpected way. Was a pleasant surprise to come across this channel. Well done!
Hi, guys!! So Sorry for not replying to any comments for the last month. Our channel got hacked and we got it back only today. We still need to have some discussions with TH-cam, but I am glad all of you enjoyed this massive project we had been working on for a while! Quite sad that it blew up just as we got hacked! :D We will try to answer as many questions as we can now!
Would you guys be interested in a video: OUR FAVORITE LENSES?
Ooooh sorry we glad your back now
Great work here you guys! Would love to know the story behind the shoots, location and gears used.
Sorry about you channel being hacked!
Yes please
Did you shoot these video yourself or do you have any companions??
What a beautiful film! Fantastic scenery! Wish I could be there enjoying that silence. Thank you for making such a lovely film and posting it!
You made a beautiful film. I love how you didn't rely on fancy camera movement. Static shots. Let the scene speak for itself. Your message really resonated with me!
Very well done! Composition, tone and editing was simple yet dramatic.
Fantastic camera work and awesome storyline!
I absolutely loved this! Thank you!
What a masterpiece, finding your own way and getting out of circle of life we all have been thought to and learned to believe that it is OK to be average and afraid to explore. Good luck!!!
This is beautiful. Thank you for making and sharing this short film.
6:30 I'm so glad I found this today. I was in a mood and this gave me my spirits back. I always thought I was weird for enjoying being by myself too.
Image, music, sound design, story.... Everything fits together perfectly!! Awesome work! Hats off man :) Best regards from Poland!
I felt every frame of this film to my soul. It's beautifully shot and produced, and the message powerful. Thank you for sharing!
They will call you wrong for having different beliefs. They will call you a loner because you are comfortable being on your own. They will call you lost for not following the same route as others . Let them call you what they want, you don't have to play the part they want you to play !
Sometimes you just chose to take a path less walked !
Being born in a small town like mine, i've always been around busy streets which i used to enjoy while growing up, the hustle bustle, the crowded corner . The older i grow, the more i crave silence, empty streets, away from crowded narrow corners, the noises, the people, 100s of voices, opinions, judgement.
I've been home and never felt the comfort at home. Sometimes even taking showers was so difficult! That's how you start to appreciate the small things in life. This was the time, ever since which i had started craving nature and a desire to travel !
Never got a chance to see places, appreciate the beauty of nature, find home within oneself , not others, find contentment in oneself , not what the world asks you to be ! Fall in love with yourself , not what others wanted you to become.
Sometimes it takes years to build those boundaries, be yourself and unlearn what people told you to accept and tolerate !
Can't imagine what it would be like unravelling your deepest fears trekking through the mountains, silence of the valleys, into the abyss of the ocean.
Bro words can't even describe how good this whole film was! Your storytelling skills, both visually and vocally are bloody amazing! Did you film it all by yourself with a tripod or got help from someone?
Amazing storytelling brought to life with incredible cinematography and a perfectly matched soundtrack! Well done!!
I really am mesmerized by your work of art.. Yeah I mean it's absolutely breathtaking. And it just feels so close to heart.. You are really winning in life mate !!
Wow! I so much Love this! 🤍🤍💯💯 Thank you for releasing this!
Holy shit! This is incredible. The storytelling, scripting, cinematography, colour tone, everything is just exceptional. Keep up the great work, man. Cheers!
10+ 10+ 10+
Это невероятно!
Спасибо за проделанную работу!
Не хватает слов, что-бы передать весь спектр эмоционального состояния!
I swear I could smell the fresh mountain air... beautiful film. Thank you for sharing this.
Wow, wow, wow, just blown away! Stunning photography! Man alive you deserve an oscar!
"Let them call you what they want, you don't have to play the part they want you to play, create your own, and live."
It really needs to be spread more to show that people are not alone!
Amazing work
Insane
Absolutely stunning shots and magnificently curated video series. Wow!!!!
This is the kinda of coumentary every aspiring travel photographer needs to make, immense respect and u gained new subscriber, just awesome, every frame is designed with lots of dedication, passion, just mind blown, the serenity and the simplicity is truely some level
