Have been following you walk (and the wolf situation 😀). I'm an avid hiker and I would definitely do the following: - wear synthetic or wool shirts not cotton, because cotton draws heat out of your body when you are sweating or simply wet due to the rain. - for feet I would wear wool based socks - something like Smartwool or Darn Tough because wool is naturally antibacterial, and it manages sweat much better than cotton or even synthetic socks. One thing that I would 100% avoid is cotton - whether it's legs, body, or feet. I even use synthetic underwear when hiking. Regarding the backpack - you need to make sure you carry it correctly - most of the weight should be on your hips, (via the waist strap) not your shoulders. This is it is much, much easier to carry it and your back will thank you for it. There are a million videos on TH-cam showing how to adjust your backpack straps properly. Or walk into any mountaineering/outdoors shop and they will show you how to adjust the straps on your backpack so you carry it more efficiently. Good luck, keep going!!!
I find the journey extremely entertaining and I do believe your videos will gain a lot of traction. I wish there were more of them. I like hearing your views on the places you go through, you should give more feedback on what's worth it to visit. How you find a sleeping place outdoors and how you plan your trip and navigate
Excellent journey so far! It would be great if you could add the total number of kilometers walked since the start of the journey at the end of each video to give us a better feel for how far you've come. It would be super interesting to see you have each day logged on Strava but I guess this has its own issues with draining phone/watch battery etc.
Maybe put the names in the description or title will make it easier to follow. Everything is open here in Italy on Nov 1. Vaseline will prevent chafing. Good luck !!
Think about quitting Monster drinks . They are poison . And how can we the viewers send a beer. I know you are doing this journey for yourself but it will be good if we can support you some how
You are doing very well mate. Walking to Germany is a remarkable achievement. Don't get ideas above your station though son - you have absolutely no chance of making it to Vietnam. You aren't capable. Good luck and fair play for trying, but I'll give you another couple of weeks at the most before you wimp out.
@@Chubbytrekka I mean I am obviously trying a little reverse psychology. I doubt you need my help in reaching Vietnam - but whenever you have those moments of "this is too much, let's stop" it might help to remember that miserable guy on TH-cam who says you cannot do it. In hindsight, it's a flawed tactic, I guess.

He seems to be in too much pain to me, it's stressful to watch
@@vaughnwilliams1208 im ok! I knew it would be a challenge to walk this far, but I’m up for the challenge
Echo this!
@@Chubbytrekka it more stressful but also more gripping. The wolves in the woods was amazing. I feel there are far bigger dangers ahead
I take my hat off to you 50k a day, and you still look fresh and full of energy, i did similar years sgo and was dead at the end of every day
Keep up the good work!❤
As an ancient philosopher once said! 'fucking go for it!' 😊
You can do it!
Yes, I live in France.....same. xxxxxx
I've just walked to the bathroom and back.
@@ElectricPaoloIAM nice !

Try nappy cream for the chafing. Works for me.

Love it second breakfast just like the hobbits 🇬🇧
How long dose it take to edit videos for TH-cam and Instagram per day?
What do you have a Manager for?? Genuine question
To deal with sponsors etc
