Hello and welcome. My name is Krista and I live in Vancouver, Canada with my husband Steve. You won't find any bikini posing under cascading waterfalls on this channel, just a couple in their early 60s still exploring and having fun.
I just started posting videos on my channel in 2023, but have kept a few travel blogs over the years. I have posted the links below to two of my blogs about Costa Rica.

Madeira, Portugal: 5 Amazing Days
We based ourselves in the main town of Funchal, and each day we did day trips to different areas of the island. We walked, we hiked, we swam in the ocean, stopped frequently to admire the views and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this stunning island.
Highlights of the trip include Fanal Forest, Porto Moniz, Sao Lourenco Hike (Dragon's Tail), Vereda Balcoes Hike, and the Monte Palace Tropical Garden.

In this video we will visit the hidden treasure that was once the headquarters of the Knights Templar and is home to the stunning Convent of Christ, a UNESCO World Heritage site. We will also walk through the cobble...

My most amazing wildlife encounter ever - kayaking with dolphins on the Sunshine Coast, BC

Probably my most amazing wildlife encounter ever. On our last morning on the Sunshine Coast (British Columbia, Canada) decided to paddle up to the end of Bargain Bay. As we reached the end of the inlet we came upon a pod of approximately 50 Pacific White-Sided Dolphins energetically feeding and jumping. We watched them for almost 40 minutes.

Seven weeks in Thailand - from the north to the south
Thank you for your lovely film. We are going to Thailand next week and visit Koh Lanta and Koh Mook. We have already booked the same hotell as you att Koh Mook so was niece to see that you liked it.
So glad you enjoyed the video. Hope you have a great visit to Koh Mook and enjoy staying at Mook Ing Lay. I am sitting here this morning looking at an outdoor themometer reading of -1C and dreaming of Thailand beaches. If you have time, do a day trip over to Koh Kradan. The beach there is one of the best we visited in Thailand for blue water and the snorkeling is top notch.
What was the music you played at around 2:39...onward, was that a recording of monks?
@@YogaBlissDance thanks for watching. That music is Gregorian chant. You can find them on this commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Audio_files_of_Gregorian_chant The nice thing is they allow you to use the music.
Thank u mama
Great video and thanks for the map too. Heading there next week for 10 days and will use your maps.
Have a great time in Madeira. Both my husband and I wished we had had more time there. 5 days was not enough. Thanks for watching.
We’re very excited to find your trip diary. Our first trip to Madeira will be for two weeks this March 2025. We had some reservations about the ruggedness, but now feel inspired by your adventures.
@bradbike hope you have a great trip to Madeira. Thanks for commenting.
Your video was truly beautiful and inspiring. As a fellow creator, I appreciate the effort you put into it. Sub and 👍26
Thanks so much for watching. I'm so glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your kind comments.
Beautiful! 😉. Great job on the video too , I think Noraly would be jealous.
Haha. She'd probably be disappointed by all the paved roads.
Love your 1st person view of driving. Can’t really find on other UA-camrs
Thanks so much for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

Oops! Thank you for correcting that
I will be doing something similar next month. It is better to rent a suv or will a small car do?. What app do you use for navigation? Do you prebook your accommodation or as you go? Thanks!
We rented a 4 door Toyota sedan. It was a little underpowered on the hills, but overall was fine. We didn't feel like we needed an SUV. We used Google maps for navigation and can only think of a couple of times when we are out of cell range. Otherwise Google maps worked well. We tended to book our accommodation a day or two in advance and in early December that seemed ok. The only places we did not book in advance where at Pha Hi and Ban Rak Thai because it just seemed really hard to book online. We just showed up and found a place to stay. Hope you have a great trip. Northern Thailand is so beautiful. Happy to answer any other questions.
I love this place, i just back home frm that lovely place and it has nice shop selling local food near the 1st resto that u showing,....aroooooi maaak
We loved Chiang Rai and hope we can go back in 2025. Thanks for watching.
Lovely video. How much did the long tail cost to Koh Kradan?
Thanks for watching. I don't remember the exact cost for the long tail to Koh Kradan, but I don't remember it being very expensive. We booked a private all day trip through Boonchu Tour and Transfer, which is one of the travel agents on the island just on the main street. They were really helpful. We also booked our speedboat tickets to Koh Lipe through them.
@notlostadventures thankyou!
Very good.
Thanks for watching and your kind comment. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Very nice video and beautifully presented! Fantastic place! Enjoyed watching! Done myself few videos for my travel channel if you want to have a look at it....thank you! New SUBSCRIBER

I will definitely have to go back, there is just so much to see and learn. Thanks again for watching.
Another brilliant video!

Thank you for showing this trail! I've never really explored the Pacific Spirit Park region, this seems like a fun short hike.
Thanks for watching.We love exploring Pacific Spirit Park, and it helps that we live close by. All Trails has some good descriptions and maps to trails in the park www.alltrails.com/parks/canada/british-columbia/pacific-spirit-regional-park
Although I live in Thailand, I roughly visit Mae Hong Son. Good to check out your trip .. Wonderful I hope you like my country, Thailand
Loved your country. Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much for letting me know. I've gone back and corrected other video descriptions as well where I made that mistake.
Awesome video ❤
I'm glad you enjoyed and thanks for your kind comment.
Which month is this trip was done?
Thanks for watching. We were there at the end of December. Happy to answer any questions.
San Pedro, view Point. I was pickpocketed there last week
@@j1m2s so sorry to hear that, did you lose much?
@@notlostadventures Well, I lost my driver's license, passport card, 4 credit cards and 200 US dollars in EURO US in less than 12 hours in the country :-(
@@j1m2s How would you have protected your valuables?
Thank you for the great video series! We plan to do the second half of you trip on January. We want to be a bit flexible with the timings but we are worried if we should book our accommodation in advance. From your experience, should we be able to just visit a town and find some hotel on the same day or we should try to prebook everything just to be safe?
Thanks so much for watching. The road trip was from December 5 -20 (high season) and we also wanted to be somewhat flexible and so only booked our accomodations about 1-2 days in advance. We didn't have any problems with booking places (mostly used Agoda) except we found that on the weekends things were a little more booked up. We had a hard time booking online for the village of Pha Hee and so just showed and found something pretty easily. Happy to answer other questions. Have a great trip, you will love northern Thailand.
Thank you very much for the information! I am sure we will have a nice time exploring northern Thailand, your videos have been of great help, thanks again! 😃

Absolutely loved Koh Lipe
Hey - great to see you guys in Lisbon.
Love you from Karachi Pakistan
Thank you for this Video! How long do you recommend to stay in Pha Hi? Maybe 2-3 days?
Thanks for watching my video. Pha Hi is a very relaxing place and how long you stay depends on what you are wanting to do. If you are on a tight schedule I think 2 nights would be fine.
I'm protesting Lipe until they ban tuk tuks.
Hello from Van island! We love Koh Lipe too + are returning in Jan for 2 weeks
@@bluestarfishsea How wonderful. Enjoy your trip back to Koh Lipe.
Thanks for watching. We started from Koh Mook and took a 3 hour speed boat to Koh Lipe.
Im sorry I didnt understand from where you start for Kho lipe?
So lovely
Amazing!
Great video. Many thanks Can you tell me the name of the resort? I didn't catch it and would like to stay there.
Thanks for watching and your comments. Here is a link to our accomodation on the Mekong River. It was a little difficult connecting with them to make a reservation, but we were able to contact them using the "Line" app www.kiengkongresort.com/
I just got back from Thailand and toured this area, largely because of your videos. I took the overnight train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai, then started driving to Chiang Dao and onwards. I downloaded and used your maps to navigate and did the northern section from Mae Salong to the Golden Triangle. Then I went to Chiang Rai and then into Lao and did the slow boat. I had a reservation at the Ama Mae Salong, however about a week before I left, I got an email from them telling me that they had to cancel me because they were doing electrical work or something. Instead, I located the Wang Put Tan Tea Plantation which was not that far from Mae Salong. Let me tell you, it was excellent!! It was a little hard to find by car, but I convinced Google Maps to cooperate and I found it. It was gorgeous!! I think the place is mainly a restaurant, but they also have 7 or 8 cabins on the side of one the hills and the views were spectacular. So, for the (inexpensive) price of a room, you actually get your own cabin, complete with a deck overlooking the view. I think I booked them through Agora. If you are ever back in the area, you should check it out. Even if you just stop by for a pot of tea or a meal. And thanks for your videos and maps. You made my vacation!!
Heaven on earth😆
Thanks for sharing 👍🏻🙏
สวัสดีค่ะ🙏
