    Dagestan, what a great tour Matt and Julia. The landscape, terrain and the architecture of the old deserted villages - all very similar to where I was based for sometime in Taif, Saudi Arabia in the beautiful Hijaz mountains. Many thanks to you both

    I'm sure I saw persimmons early in the video... 😀Dodgy roads? Indeed! 🤦‍♂ But the views of the Dagestan mountain wilderness takes one's breath away! Beautiful! That "long drop" toilet? I'd rather choose the open field. Gamsutl is absolutely a fairy tale village with stunning views. All the scenery in this video almost feels prehistoric. Why is that footbridge (on the way back from the waterfall) locked down? Thanks for this video, really wonderful content by a wonderful couple! ❤

    Fascinating place - however at 12:16 ...... I've noticed quite a few well-known travel UA-camrs (mentioning no names, but including a very well known one who has visits Russia, plus a few others who go all over the world) ...... they DON'T seem to have a decent pair of walking boots or even "lightweight" i.e. ankle height walking shoes. Plenty of good brands to choose from, but avoid Magnum boots and Adidas GSG shoes/boots - the soles on them don't last.
