I don't know how you do it every week, the quality of these videos is amazing. A large team of writers, videographers and editors with the budget of a major production company couldn't do a better job.
A big +1

Hi Lea. Greetings from Oz. Carrying spare petrol is always a problem, especially on corrugated outback tracks. Everything shakes off !
A soft fuel bladder works well and is easily stored when empty. Magic adventure into the desert. Thanks for taking us along.
I get that they're into biking but this isn't actually a problem, just drive a car. There is a reason you don't see locals ride motorbikes in the heat with the dust flying everywhere and the condition of the roads.
Nothing against their trip and I think their videos are very well made, but just saying. Cars are more suited for the desert than bikes.
Awesome !Thank you for this beautiful video .
Thank you for watching
Calm and inner silence is often good..in this messed up world
Thanks again for sharing your exotic travels
Stay safe
It indeed is - and rare to find.
An exciting adventure and interesting events, waiting for the rest of the adventures
We are very, very excited for your visit to Saudi Arabia and to see you in the south and on the Red Sea coast
cool, great video, love the epic music, makes me feel like Im experiencing it also.
Spettacolo, la magia dei tuoi video portano a viaggiare con te, mi è venuto caldo a guardarlo FANTASTICA👍👋👋👋
Amazing, spectacular and awesome 👏
Thank you!
I made the experience being in the dersert and being on the ocean is the same. You only can´t dive down so deep inside the desert ;-)) Nice episode. Have (TP too) a nice WE
Great video thank you. You can keep the sand . I a fan of the mountains your videos are the best way to see desert thanks again cheers.
I have to admit I am not the biggest fan of sand either (I even hate it on the beach) but in the desert… it is somehow different.
Enjoyed the scenery☺️Let the good times roll
Lea,thank you for This difficult and impressive video.
amazing video with beautiful music thank you for sharing world videos of our country i really enjoyed 👍🏻
Beautiful video, Lea! Read Wilfred Thesiger’s “The Empty Quarter when I was young and it is interesting to see it today.
Thank you Lea. 👍👍👍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
On n'était pas trop loin de Fasad. C'est très moderne en Oman.

Empty quarter 😍 home sweet home.. I worked there for almost 20 years but in the Emirates 🇦🇪 side of it. Great video 🙏
That is awesome! The empty quarter is really amazing.
Hi Lea, hooked to a magical Oman by now and that no other land of Arabia can promise such a ❤️ touching warmth of natives who thrill one and all.
Wish I'd rewind some miles down my kilometers so as the cherish Oman Once Again.

Solo cononoci el desierto de Patagonia,mas pobladoy con alguna vegetacion baja,muy frio en invierno,cambia totalmente al llegar la cordillera de Los Andes.
Welcome to oman.I wish you a good time in 🇴🇲
Excellent coverage
Not first, but still Early 😁
👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
Wow enjoyed a lot. Thank you Lea!✨😊
Bravo Lea!Dessert is great,Thanks for your beautiful videos and wish more..
Empty quarters, so beautiful. Not sure the ring in the sand kept the scorpions away , more likely the sound and vibrations from travel partners snoring!
😂😂😂😂 I think so too!
Lea natgeo could not compete with you! Amazing videos and photography. Keep traveling my friend. 🙏🏻 from America.
Thank you!!!
Que belleza es el desierto que mágica puesta de sol como amanecer
Saludos gracias y exitos
Hey Lea and travel partner, nice drone shots on the sand ridge in your signature red dress💃 the vastness of the desert was impressive, Isaiah 35 speak about when desert will be a productive Paradise" The wilderness and the parched land will exult, And the desert plain will be joyful and blossom as the saffron, For waters will burst forth in the wilderness, And streams in the desert plain." Looking forward to next Thursday 🙏
Ah yes that fits very well. Thank you!
Super schöne Episode, freue mich auf das nächste Video!
This channel is so underrated, I just came across your videos and by far this is the best adventure channel ever
당신의 용기와 모험 정신이 존경스럽습니다.
Keep it up
Thank you
@@Got2Go welcome ❤️
It’s really so true your words. It’s so touching that it drives me to tears this beauty of earth ❤
Büyük macera, tebrikler👍🙋♂️🏍🏍🏍
Awesome as usual. Thanks for sharing your adventures to places I'll never see . The landscape is unbelievable. Looks extraterrestrial.
Reading a sign with all the suggestions for safety is one hell of a wake up sign! One knows that they are off the grid from there on. Fantastic video as always, you seemingly outdo yourself each week. Thanks for taking us on this magical journey.
Thank you so much - I have to admit that the sign scared me a bit! I would have felt more confident without it 😂😂😂
@@Got2Go the sign really is substantial, sadly many people in the past,including whole families have perished in the empty quarter due to carelessness or lack of knowledge, it's enough to wander a few meters from the paved road, get stuck in the sand, then death of dehydration and/or sunstroke steps in within hours .. all is nice, romatic and magical just watching on a mobile phone/tablet screen, but being out there in the flesh enduring +60c temps during the day, and sub-zero temps at night is a totally different experience and surely not for the foolish nor ignorant to venture in unprepared
Stay safe fellow riders!
Excelente , impecable ......no tengo mas adjetivos !!! no dejes de rodar y divertirnos !!! un saludo afectuoso a los 2 !!
Amazing video.
Thanks!
Very informative video. I have intention to travel there for last one year and believe me I had no idea and such film about this desert. Thanks for sharing your video and wish to watch more beautiful videos in the future.
Take care and best of luck.
Omg, how i love these goldish, shiny, vast, lonesome desert sceneries, awe inspiringly beautiful, you make them look like heaven 🔥❤️!! Thank you🙏🙏🙏!!
Yes I love them too! Such a crazy remote place. 🤯
I have a confession to make.I feel like I am in love with the desert and This is the next fairitale from you to us. Thank you for bringing me in this beautiful scenery and the never repeating sunrise and sunset views... Best of luck for the next parts of the journey!

Thank you so much!
Thanks, another interesting ride in a desolate place. Nothing wrong with the odd swear word, very expressive! 😄
Die Wüste muss etwas einmaliges haben. Beeindruckend, beängstigend soll die absolute Stille sein. Danke für das mitnehmen in diese einmalige Gegend 🤗
MASYA ALLAH ... TABAROKALLAH
Simply beautiful
Muito bonito esse passeio. Passar a noite no deserto deve ser mágico!
This was amazing Leah! You are my hero!❤

Don't afraid to journey of Pakistan Sowat and GILGIT baltistan area.
Very Cheap for visiting.
Undoubtedly one of the best vlog. . you raise the bar with every episode.. you guys are redefining the word "PASSION".. Stretching the boundaries of motovlogging.. As usually spectacular drone shots, music and narration.. That shot of you in red cover was stunning.. You never cease to amaze us.. 👏👏👌.. Can't imagine whats more in store for us.. . And ya, thanks for introducing Helena.. Will follow her too.. 👍
It’s why with roads like that that l use Locktite on everything, including my teeth. 😉
There is an old Bedouin saying. ‘If a scorpion shows himself under a desert moon, he comes in peace and will not harm the weary traveller. However, his friends will, so eat him before he alerts his scorpion buddies.’ 🤭 Okay, maybe I made that up. But it makes sense.
The desert. So desolate, so unforgiving, but also disarmingly beautiful and alive. Always looking for its next prey. Good thing you ate that scorpion. 😉
Wish I could say that we grilled it over our little fire that we made - but we didn’t even make a fire 😂
Just came across your videos and loving it!!!
they really grade those roads pretty good considering its so far out there
Beautiful tours and adventures and conveyed in a wonderful artistic style and direction that enables the viewer and follower to enjoy your trip..
Welcome back to my country Oman
Thank you so much!
I just love the way you are doing the videos now Lea! Very nice adventure and you were able to transmit the call of the desert. Well done!
Completely took my breath away...superb and alien place makes us feel incredibly small what a beautiful world 🌎 we all live in...thank you Lea and your travel partner for showing us this outstanding beautiful place 😊✌👍p.s see ya next Thursday evening cheers !!!
Beautiful and the hospitality is something many need to practice. Elena is good friend. Wow! all the distance on that old Harley. I never dreamed she would do so well. She is much determined and has survived some harsh realities of life. Yes, a brave and tough one she is. Great drone work. You don't want to try out the military there. Safe travels in my country.
I don’t think that the Harley is too old though. She has it since she started travling but it is a sportster, so a recent model. 🤗
Serious adventuring! Videos and views simply stunning as everything has been about this series so far. Amazing.
Thank you so much!
