    Being born in Europe is such a privilege, when he said “go on skyscanner and just go anywhere that’s cheap” I opened and the cheapest flight out of Brasil is ONE FULL MONTH OF PAY AT A MINIMUM WAGE JOB. It literally feels like a prison that only the rich can leave

      Agreed. I’m from the US, and while there is decent access for semi-budget flights abroad, everything is so far away and there isn’t a culture of taking a lot of time off to travel - it’s looked down upon as not being serious about your work. My dad lives in the UK and has been able to do so much great international travel.

      I feel you, my friend. As a person who loves travelling, feels almost impossible to go anywhere, even inside Brasil itself. Everything is so expensive. We have an amazing continent with so many beautiful countries to visit in South America, but even that is hella expensive to do and I need to work and save money for at least a year to do so.

Now I live in USA and miss these crazy cheap flights available almost anytime. Ah and I did something similar too in 2014 when going to Australia, only diff was that I was taking the cheapest flight as long as it was south-east direction. UK -> Poland -> Hungary -> Dubai -> Qatar -> Thailand -> Singapore ->(by bus tho) KL -> Sydney. Took me a month and prop the best adventure of my life.

    You've inspired me to this similar concept from a past video of taking cheap flights and honselty its like a drug, its addictive. i managed to get from Manchester to Gdanks for £16.00 then from Gdansk to Stockholme for £4.20 (Yes less than a on flight beer ahah) and then following Sweden i managed to get myself to Budapest for £21.00. I spent roughly a week at each destination yet this video has made me start to consider a similar format of 24hrs in each cheapest country. seems more realistic for my goal of completing every country. im currently on 36/197

    if you are planning to visit Cyprus again in the future, make sure to eat at a fish tavern and ask for the specialties of the restaurant or dishes of the day. as a Greek Cypriot i can assure you that fasolada, although it is freakin delicious, isnt the highlight of our traditional cuisine. the list is looong. halloumi, koupepia, tachi, sieftalia and goes on. also id recommend to pack a swimsuit with:)

      Fasolada in Greece/Cyprus is more of a dish that's made at home and not really at restaurants.

    Fasolada is a Greek/Cypriot dish that's mainly home-cooked. You cannot really find it that easily in restaurants, as you can probably tell by now. Lots of foods in these countries are like that. Our equivalent to your fish and chips is probably our souvlaki, but that doesn't really make souvlaki a national dish. Kind of hard to explain but I hope you get the discrepancy.

    What about taking this idea to the next level. Traveling by the cheapest flights everyday or every couple of days. But you can only fly back home country (no need to be your home city), when the flight to home is cheapest or if you get sick or if it takes too much time. How long would it take? How long would you be able to spend time away from your home country?

    Just found the channel and its a great video. Paphos was quiet because it was off season. I was there in Aug-Sep and it's very lively with tourists at that time. Down by the Harbour is very touristy, so traditional dishes (other than Souvlaki), are not really common in that area from experience. Could have got your pizza fix at a great restaurant out by the mall though, worth a visit if you're back in town!
