One Day In MENORCA, SPAIN | Island Of Adventure
Loving your journey across the globe! Thanks for taking us along 👌
Me too. It must be plain to see how flat it is across the plane! ;)
I'm from here and it's so crazy seeing people that I know, like in la mola😂
Love Spain. I was in Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia.
{{{{ Bailar....Baiiiiiiilar.....Bailar con mi corazon !!!!}}}} I've been singing that all day.
Hi Gabriel! That water is priceless. I believe I love the water as much as you! This island is beautiful..Thanks for the tour! Take care and God Bless you!😃
So awesome my friend take care and safe travels
To each his or her own I guess, but I don't care what 'number' you are or I am, I'm just excited to watch another one of Gabe's excursions. THAT is the real prize. Thank you.
Yes! Really happy that you liked our little island Gabriel!
Hope to see you next time!
Menorca is so quiet and peaceful, I remember going in the abandoned budings at la mola just north of mahon and it was so quiet that it was eerie
This trip was very enjoyable 😍
Loving the Mediterranean stuff. Definitely my favourite area of the world
El Mediterráneo es la cuna de nuestra civilización Occidental.
Fascinating. Thanks for making us discover such nice places.
This is what we need for the summer. Thanks Gabe.
Thank you Gabriel 😊❤ always love the history you tell about the countries you visit! ☀️❤😊 stay safe 😊
🌷💕🌺 very interesting ancient ruins. Luv luv the donkeys. Beach is absolutely beautiful and again. Perfect music.....luv this video!!! Great job !!!🌺
The Island is beautiful. Lots to see and many streets to wander down. Have fun. Safe travels.
It was interesting to see all of this 👍👏 thank you
Gabi, loved your video man... all the montage was fantastic! The song was amazing! Well done. And of course, I love everything about Spain!! Oh, Since you may be still there, check out Malaga! it's beautiful!
Nice video Gabriel.... looks like plenty to see and do there.... Safe Travels.. 👍👍
Great Video. Thank you for posting.
Ciao... Gabriel... Saluti... Grazie mille per il bellissimo video... Take care of yourself... 👍👍👍👍👍
Amazing!
Thank you very much for all of your videos. As if im also exploring such a Wonderful and great countries.. God bless you a thousandfold..
So glad you’ve been to menorca, we holiday on this brilliant island a lot over the years)from the uk) perfect for family holidays.
Whoa! Sharp rocks at the cove.
Very good video. I learnt quiet a lot about Menorca in twenty minutes.
Great, glad to hear it.
🙏🏻😁Wow! I love Video Y❤U👍👍
You can visit Cova de Coloms (if you can find it), it's an amazing cave, really cool and fresh, perfect bivouac point when hiking in summer!
Seems like you did a lot of exploring that day
Marvellous!
Excellent as always Gabriel. You might like to look at "Cala Morell Necropolis" NW on the island, plus "Naveta d'es Tudons" east of Ciutadella. The guide certainly enjoyed showing you her big guns!
Hope you make Your way to Formentera. The most beautiful Island of the baleares
Cool
Espana!
Let’s travel together
Cool video, looks like an amazing island. How did you make sure the depth of the water is suitable for diving at the end there? I always feel like I've got to get in first and check.
Niiice 👍👍
You must be there during the low tourist season? Seems like everything is deserted. Water 💦 is lovely as usual.
Really liking Menorca. Looks like a nice gem to visit, perhaps one day... Cheers brother! #VicariousGabrielAdventures ;)
I was soldier in the battery of the canons in 1971. (50 years ago.)
Gabe- the origin of mayonnaise? Did I hear you right? What fascinating history! Beautiful spot for a splash!
Yep, exactly.
Youve been to so many places...you should do a "top 5" vid.
Bonita Isla
Great video Gabriel, Where will you heading next after Menorca?
Somewhere not as popular I believe he said in the previous video... It's a surprise!
11:45 local.. nice smile and green eyes :)
Balearic island with caribbean music?( lol) Beauty clean water
Did you notice you didn't see any fish around there, that's because the Spanish have fished it totally out (which is what they are trying to do in the UK)
Hi Gabriel, I'm surprised to see many businesses open due to a custom in Latin culture especially in Spain, Spanish take their afternoon nap or in Spanish siesta. That's the reason you find more businesses staying open later.
Which is your next destination Gabriel?
Are you planning to visit Croatia again?
Btw thumbs up for another trip to europe 👍🏻
He said someplace new but won't say
Mallorca has so much to offer, go back and explore that island...it will be your new home...
Are you going to Corsica or Sardinia next by chance?
Another awesome video! What was the food price?
It was pretty cheap, I think around 9 euros for the plate. Food and drinks are very reasonable on both Menorca and Mallorca. But accommodation is through the roof. A dorm bed is as high as 50 euros and private rooms are of course even more.
Hello go to citadel and walk to the calas very few people naturalist. Saludos
👍
Did you go a little Nirvana in the thumbnail!! :-)
Haha, I thought the same thing.
The puffy cheeks crack me up... Must be like a third lung. ;)
4:20 Few thousand years later mules still occupies their dwelling
how was the beach? we didn't get to see :(
Swimming, yes.
How come I don't have any notification from your vlog. What's happening UA-cam!
Hey, Gabriel......
Quick question;
What month of the year did you visit Menorca?
Safe travels.
Thanks.
In July.
do you use any stablizer when you taking footage?
No, just the built-in stabilization in the Gopro that I film with.
GABRIEL, CAN YOU TELL US WHAT CAMERA YOU USE ON YOUR TRIPS.
AND WERE WE CAN BUY ONE.
OR IS IT A SECRET.
LOVE YOUR VIDIOS.
Gopro 7
Melvyn Stevenson -GoPro Hero 7 Black.. it’s usually in his description
Yep. Camera I use is always listed in the description below each video. Also it's in my Amazon estore: www.amazon.com/shop/gabrieltraveler
Hello Gabriel. It was a great set of videos Mallorca-Menorca!👍 Since I am planning to get from Mallorca to Menorca by ferry as well, could you please inform what company’s ferry it was and how much did the ferry cost to you? Thank you.
There are two ferry companies there, Trans Mediterranea and Balearia. They both go between the islands so it's just a matter of which one is better timed for when you're planning to go. I forget how much it was but a little expensive, I think 30-40 euros.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos thank you!
Beautiful little historic town with an amazing harbour. Also very clean --- no litter. And I know you like graffiti/street art but really, I just think that stuff just makes a place look so down-trodden and suggests crime. Was that lasagne with some salad for lunch? And what were those small pebble-like things in the glass? Some kind of berry?
You know the big tall house that looks a little like a lighthouse but not quite with a satellite on top. Is it abandoned? Cos I went round the back and went inside and I was looking around the house and there were cobwebs and pigeon poo and a lot of dust but on the wall there was a calender with photos and the date 2008 and a moped parked inside itbl just looked like it had been left in a hurry. But the door was wide open and the kitchen was intact and there was a dead rat by the fridge
Hi Gabe, i was thinking how much you love to travel the world but i wondered if you have thought about retirement...will Social Security be enough, will you teach, lecture, etc.? any plans?
andy artin -GREAT QUESTION!
These a great quarry at ciautaddella end of island ,3 cannons at Cala en Bosch I stumbled across
Cala galdana is great beach with a short walk to 2 beaches macerella and macrletta with houses carved in the cliffs there and one of the beaches is nudist
Early
Menorca is like the unknown little brother of Mallorca, and you can avoid the crowds of drunken youths, at least when I was there..
Did you go to Magaluf in summertime? Most of the island isn't like that at all, especially out of season. Give it another chance sometime!
@@MrSimonj1970 I know, sure, Mallorca is more than those crowds. I guess what i meant to say is that those types of crowds are not seen in menorca at all..
Just curious, how come you don't "take the plunge" and get your SCUBA certification? I know there's still a lot of dry land you haven't seen yet, but it seems like diving would be a natural fit for you (not to be too presumptuous)
No particular reason, just haven't gotten around to it basically.
Makes sense. You definitely keep yourself occupied!
Great that you swim in these magnificent areas; but, in my opinion, not a good idea to dive head first in unfamiliar waters-unseen rocks, etc.
I was thinking the same thing. Very risky.
Wow man this music does not go at all with anything from Spain lol, it sounds more like Afro-Latin American music.
It's Son cubano lol
@@LucianoClassicalGuitar That right, afro latin sounds from cuba
@@ferncanales1119 Yeah. The first song was more like Son but the rest I'm not even sure. But does not mix well with Mallorca landscapes xD Or maybe it does?
@@LucianoClassicalGuitar I think he should look for Mediterranean music, that might go better with the Balearic and Spanish landscapes
There are copyright issues with using music in youtube videos. I talked about that in this video: ua-cam.com/video/vVXMfASGaUs/v-deo.html You can't use any music you might find on the internet, you have to find music that doesn't have copyright restrictions. So finding music to use that is from a specific region is often impossible. You have to choose from a fairly narrow selection of more general music you can find, such as Spanish-language music, etc.
Filming any nightlife??
09:33 -- In the afternoons, Spaniards wisely take their naps / their Siestas.
When my folks were in Europe over the Summers many a moon ago, it took them a looooooooooooong time to get accustomed to eating din-din at night PM, I have to say. There is a real nightlife culture in Europe, the likes of which does not seem to exist Stateside. Gabriel, what do you think, has this been your experience being (almost) everywhere at night?
I envy you trying all of those beers ... all 'round your travels ...
I always take a siesta on holiday , out early back for a nap then back out after
@@s125ish Yep, sounds like Plan A
Cova dels coloms mean cave of the doves.
1st
Got it.
Nice work Sajan
They eat late at night
Caribe ritmo en el Mediterráneo? Horror .
Bro I invite you to Pakistan 🇵🇰
Great Video, you are not a Trump Supporter from what i can see, am i Right?
0:02 13:38 Dude stop using Caribbean music in Spain, and especially in Menorca. Menorca is a Mediterranean island, far far far farrrrrr away from Cuba, that's so disrespectful and ignorant thing Americans do
If you watch more of my videos, you will see that I use lots of music that isn't from that particular country. There are copyright issues when it comes to music, so you can't just use any music you want. You have to use music from certain sources that offer copyright free music. And that limits your selection a lot. Also it's a matter of the mood you're trying to set. I have some Spanish music, but it was too slow and didn't work as well for those scenes, so I went with something else.
