By far the best van life channel on UA-cam.This episode had everything.Very engaging and one feels you are along on the ride as well.Just love it! Well done.
That is the most joyous vlog I have ever watched, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am an old and disabled man who has had a great life and done so many great things but I miss days like these and it is so life affirming to see you nippers having such fun, keep it up. Thank you again, I will buy you a beer if you ever get to my part of Dorset.
Hello Chris, This is so lovely to hear. I’m so pleased you have enjoyed it and we could show you us being silly on a crazy walk. We really did have so much fun. We may well take you up on that pint when we next make it to Dorset, all the best
@@LostInTransit I look forward to the day and will happily show you around our lovely bit of Dossitt as well as buying you both a very well deserved pint. AHOY! (is there a private message thing on this?)
The Ahoy greeting is probably the most widely used informal greeting in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. I was born in 1969 and we always greeted each other like that. Another very popular greeting is "chau", apparently taken from the Italian "ciao"...😄 p.s. I am glad that you liked our place so much.
That feeling you get when you're on a hike that exceeds expectations......... it's great. Izzy, you made me spit tea everywhere watching this laughing. You're so funny. Top episode for me so far......keep it coming guys. Have fun. JP.
Thanks JP, so glad you liked it, sorry about your tea, hahaha. The hike was brilliant, and you’re right it was the fact it was better than expected that made it so good. Thanks for watching again
This was a great vlog, good laugh, nice and relaxed, and very open, that's what makes your vlogs more special, you show all aspects of van life, the day time snooze, not having the right change, going in somewhere that only accepts a certain payment etc etc, we can all relate to that when we watch it, Isobel saying that wrong greeting 🤣🤣 we've done it all, keep going folks, a joy to watch!!!
Excellent channel and videos. A really nice couple of people. Your videos are always fun to watch. You've quickly become one of my favourite channels to watch. You aren't quite up to the standard of Loki the Raven as presenters just yet though. Loki is a rescue Raven from the UK who runs his own channel. A couple of slave humans help him with administrative duties and prepare his meals so he can focus on flying, etc and the scripts for his videos. That being said, Loki can't drive a van as DVLA won't issue him a licence. So you have him beat on that respect. Good luck guys . Be safe on your travels.
That hike looked insanely fun. I'd love to have something like that here in Ireland but I imagine it would be shut down the moment someone fell off a wet log and broke their ankle. There's a cliff walk near me that's way safer than that hike with safety railings everywhere, but you can't do it except as part of a group with safety equipment and a supervisor.
I just came back from there 🤣 Thank you for the presentation of my country 🇸🇰 There is really a lot of natural beauty that is worth seeing Such positive people like you will always be warmly welcomed here 🙋♂️👍
Looks like you had a great time! Our family used to go to Slovak paradise every year, for at least a decade. It was always a wonderful, with hiking, trips to nearby historical sites and then just some barbecues in the deep mountains.
Isn’t it weird that that wasn’t our first though. Shows you how fast fashion and stuff have ruined our mending mentality. Will have to wip out the needle and thread 🪡
Yeah that flow state is so good for you. Forget about everything else in the world for a few minutes while you do something you love. Thanks for watching Ross
Kia ora, wow absolutely and totally beautiful guys great video, nature can certainly soothe the soul, bring back vitality and restore what everyday life takes from you, honestly it's the best adventure done at a snails pace leisurely pace or like me sport mode...lol we hike Trails all the time here in nz we are A very outdoorsy country I urge others Around the world to do the same skip those messy carbon footprint gondolas or funiculars and hike it there is so much more to be appreciated this way all while burning calories.,.🤣😂thanks for sharing Tom and Iz well done take care much love from new zealand❤️👍
You guys are legendary. I like to take a picture of the map on the noticeboard. Has saved us many times. What a hike. The carpark attendant deserved a beer.
Nice...I'm a local and Veľký Sokol is my favourite hike in the Slovak Paradise as well. It's much wilder and not as visited as some other gorges here. Btw. the water reservoir, Dedinky has the coldest water in the whole Slovakia (out of all the reservoirs I guess?? Haha).
I have been watching you since you went to Norway and love your channel. You are so good at telling us about the places you visit, not just going there and sitting on beaches or drinking coffee. I love that you absolutely love the countryside and the beautiful woods and forests. It makes me feel young again as if I were doing it with you. I remember when I was young and drank a bit too much and did silly things like dancing in the streets, so when Izzy does her random dancing I think it's great. Keep up the brilliant vlogs. Take care.
Hi, the hike looked so different to the usual tidied paths and health and safety railings. Loved how all the fallen trees had been left to decompose naturally and you had to traverse using the home-made ladders. Great to see you have so much fun and enjoyment where-ever you are. Your infectious laughter brought a smile to my face. Continue enjoying Slovakia and all it has to offer, have a great week, xx
I’m not sure I could have told you anything about Slovakia before we came, but I am so glad we did. We love it, so beautiful and everyone we met were lovely. Thanks for watching Christian
Hi you two again. A quick hello from Cork in Ireland. I am saving up your videos for the long winter to come here but, given it's now too hot (!!!!!!!!!!!) to go out, I stuck on this one and it's fabulous. Halcyon days indeed. Lovely to witness the fun, lightness, comedy and goofiness of a day on your trip. Beautiful place and lovely work too. keep on rocking' on...
That was some hike you guys did, and the new editing really looked great, can't believe the lack of health and safety on the hike, in some countries there would be claims good oh from people saying twisted ankles and other injuries Great to see a country where the onus for your safety is up to you.👍
Once they make you pay, they are responsible for your safety. But this is just a peace of a nature and you can go there for free. Otherwise they would even ban mountain climbing.
Spis castle looked amazing - it'll be nice when it's finished 👍 Nice forest, but I really liked the fancy editing with the squares and rectangles sliding in 😉 Ahoy!!!🏴☠️pirate adventure!!! The hike up the ladders up the stream was mad! You did a hike a bit like that back in Norway, I think... I think this video has the weirdest banter between the pair of you 😂
Haha, yeah I’m not sure I even know what she said. Something along the lines of “Tom is getting annoyed with me for talking in every shot so we never get an B roll”
Hello Tom and Iz 👋 Slovakia is beautiful. Love your positivity and energy. Sending you my best wishes from stunning Norway, where I'm currently doing vacation 😊
Honestly, we were talking about that this morning. I can not believe how well it is doing. We throw it about and go up dodgy roads and have only ever had very minor jobs to do on her. The only thing that worries me is rust, but that will be good till we get back, then time to re-assess
What a great episode, been following ye since the wild atlantic way when ye visited my hometown Dingle. Im in india the last few months, and still i try to make sure to catch up with yere content. Fair play both of ye 😁👍
Love your vlogs. Izzy, you remind me of Cameron Diaz, but you're much funnier. 😄💓 Glad you got to swim in water that wasn't tea coloured. I think I'd have to stay there for at least a week. Thanks Tom for risking your neck and filming the climbs. 👏💚🌿
I don’t know where you found Izzy, but I would like to look there to see if there is another one like her; she is not just gorgeous but lots of fun too!
I love that you said Ahoj while hiking! It's such a nice tradition here in Slovakia :) Side note, I find it quite annoying that some of these places don't accept cards as it is never an issue in the rest of the country
If I see all the dropped down timber it looks like on some paths in bohemian Switzerland where I would say it's recommended to carry a Husqvarna or Stihl. 😊Sadly in Czech and Slovakia nowadays most say dobry den and not ahoy like in the movies from the seventies or eighties nowadays.
Yes you could, ive done the paradise hike quite a few times and i regularly see older people hiking there. I took my boyfriend and his stepdad who is 60 there, and he has done it and loved it. Thera are also many different routes, from easy to difficult, so you can choose which one you are the most comfortable with.
I don't know why but it warmed my heart that you coppered up and the guy let you off to go on a massive walk. That's a good day 🤗 ahoy. Edit I bet that guy happily told his wife that tale 👍
We were a bit worried around 4 hours into the hike that the guy might have just sent us off into the mountains because we didn’t pay him enough, haha. He was so nice, a bit of a grumpy exterior but you could tell he was a proper softy, reminded us of the guy from up
To my understanding, many todays forests in Europe are "artificial", originally cultivated in medieval times (and early) for wood, sticks, firewood, hunting etc. Late they were left and returned to current "wild" nature (Lindybeige has video about none of UK forests to be original wild ones, all are remnants of old cultivated ones). Slovensky Raj is forest that was never cultivated, therefore it is natures paradise.
Enjoyed the video as per usual. Liked how you brought different videos together going up the trek. Did the money transfer go through or did you have to leave Izzy there as a guarantee and go off to get cash?
They said it would have went into the bosses bank, but they were not there so we couldn’t check. Either way it left my bank, and I gave a little tip because I felt bad. Luckily I didn’t have to leave Iz anywhere
Your happiness is so infectious - I found myself smiling all the way through this - Thanks both.👍
Cheers John, always nice to have you along with us

Isabelle has an irresistible smile and laughter. Seeing it makes you smile involuntarily. Very rare superpower.
To me.
That Slovakian nature trail is the funnest walk I've ever seen. It looks like a level on Donkey Kong.
Slovakia looks amazing and this Paradise just landed in my list of places to visit 😍 great video guys 👋🏻
I hope you will enjoy my beautiful country 😘
Amazing hike, thanks for sharing. You guys are so amusing 👍🏼
🤣 Izzygigglefest! That hike did look brilliant. I'm gonna put Slovakia on the bucket list. Cheers!
A wise move, Slovakia was really something special. I had no idea what to expect but is so beautiful

best video yet, you too are magic together, love seeing this. So much fun and you're very funny together with the banter!
Looks a fantastic hike ye were on. I love the friendly banter between the 2 of ye ye bring us to beautiful places
You guys deserve a million subs for your channel! Let's make that happen! can't stop laughing:))
This is the kinda energy! Let’s go Maciej! 🥳
Haha
Thanks for watching, so glad you’re enjoyed the vid
Compulsive viewing. Love the places you visit and your enthusiasm as a couple to just enjoy your surroundings.
Thanks Arthur, I’m so glad you like it
cant ask for better advertisement for our little "big" country :D
Juste👍un vieux finisterien du nord😊
That feeling you get when you're on a hike that exceeds expectations......... it's great.
Izzy, you made me spit tea everywhere watching this laughing. You're so funny.
Top episode for me so far......keep it coming guys. Have fun. JP.
Thanks JP, so glad you liked it, sorry about your tea, hahaha.
The hike was brilliant, and you’re right it was the fact it was better than expected that made it so good.

What a fantastic walk and water falls it's got the lot totally beautiful you two visit the most amazing places ❤
Slovakia? That is my home country! ❤️🇸🇰

Great video, really picked up on your buzz in the woods and it looked amazing. Best van-life vlog by far. Keep it rolling guys and thank you!
Thanks Barry,
So glad you liked it, thanks for watching
That is so scary and beautiful at the same time :0
Heh 22th
I was kinda confused by this comment, glad I checked the replies, normality is restored!
Magical castle! I laughed a lot and held my breath a lot 😱
That was a brilliant vid the forest was amazing & I also couldn’t stop laughing, Izzy you are so funny & needle & thread for that bikini 😂
Isn’t it weird that that wasn’t our first though. Shows you how fast fashion and stuff have ruined our mending mentality. Will have to wip out the needle and thread 🪡
That looked like a really cool adventure. It was like something out of the Goonies. Super Jels!
That hike looks WAY better than a day at a theme park 👍🏻😎
It was brilliant, just slippy logs, water falls and rotten ladders. What more do you need?
That was a very happy video today. Totally get the mental health benefits of being in the moment, it’s why I love paddle boarding.
Yeah that flow state is so good for you. Forget about everything else in the world for a few minutes while you do something you love. Thanks for watching Ross
Epic hike and the 2 of you are good for laughs and smiles.
Europe has some many beautiful Castles.
Definitely a thumbs up for the video 👍
Such a great vlog. You guys really complement each other. Good to laugh along with you both, what a great hike! 👍
Best video ever! Bloody love you two 🙂
What a hike,love it. Glad ye found it.
Love your enthusiasm!🇨🇦
Thank you
Proper experience. So many unexpected things. Nice one!
Such a good episode guys
Always make me smile , thank you. Izzy that was so brave of you to climb that trail . Your are both a real ray of light for all of us ❤️
You are amazing, I laughed so much. Keep up and never stop, thank you so much for sharing ❤️

It was an awesome hike, highly recommend. She is a class A plonker, hahaha
@@LostInTransit very entertaining, top class guys 👍♥️
That was mint! That hike was like something on a gameshow, it was so much fun. You are having such a blast making memories - long may it continue 👍
Get you with your split-screen editing :) Well done, you have the knack of making us feel like we are right there with you.
Class video 😀🙂
Excellent video… i really need to get out more. Stay safe. Look forward to more new places. The sheer joy in your videos is wonderful.
Thanks Wayne, so pleased you liked it. Nothing better than getting out in nature. Thanks for watching

Enjoy Slovakia and the plum brandy!! Both stunning
You two were buzzing in that video! What a beautiful hike and beers at the end for€2…perfect! Thanks again for your videos…
Love them!

@@LostInTransit weird is good 👍
Love your banter
Wonderful young couple. Very interesting & informative. Iz needs to burn off energy. She is a tornado wrapped in an old Tesco plastic bag.🤣
You two should try rock climbing or a via ferrata. That hike you did looked so fun!
Health and safety 🤪😪🙈
Watching this from St Ives Holiday Park. Awesome
Lovely, what a spot!
Enjoy
8:25 clearly carried away in the moment - rare to hear so moderately incomprehensible English on this channel :D
Haha, yeah I’m not sure I even know what she said. Something along the lines of “Tom is getting annoyed with me for talking in every shot so we never get an B roll”
Never a doubtful move giving someone a free beer! 🍺😁👍
When you put it like that I don’t know why I questioned it. Haha
Hello. You have to walk very carefully. Nature and images are wonderful. Thank you. See you.
I need to lay down in a dark room now.....😁
Hello Tom and Iz 👋 Slovakia is beautiful. Love your positivity and energy. Sending you my best wishes from stunning Norway, where I'm currently doing vacation 😊
Slovakia is so beautiful, but then so is Norway. Have an amazing time, I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Best wishes

Funniest episode so far. Stay safe out there.
There must be something in the water in Slovakia, haha
@@LostInTransit Probably yeast and hops 🙂
This made me want to go to Slovakia and do this hike for real and Slovakia was never on my radar
I hope you will enjoy my beautiful country 😘

I could live there by that lake for the rest of my life and probably 4 more lives
How fit are you guys !!!! Best episode . Could a 60 year old do a paradise hike ? John O'Mahony
Yes you could, ive done the paradise hike quite a few times and i regularly see older people hiking there. I took my boyfriend and his stepdad who is 60 there, and he has done it and loved it.

To my understanding, many todays forests in Europe are "artificial", originally cultivated in medieval times (and early) for wood, sticks, firewood, hunting etc. Late they were left and returned to current "wild" nature (Lindybeige has video about none of UK forests to be original wild ones, all are remnants of old cultivated ones). Slovensky Raj is forest that was never cultivated, therefore it is natures paradise.
1:18 Such a guilty look on your face👀🧐😎😜 What adds 30 minutes to getting ready in the morning?? 😂
Can you post location on what 3 Words??
Thanks Pat
Enjoyed the video as per usual. Liked how you brought different videos together going up the trek. Did the money transfer go through or did you have to leave Izzy there as a guarantee and go off to get cash?
They said it would have went into the bosses bank, but they were not there so we couldn’t check. Either way it left my bank, and I gave a little tip because I felt bad. Luckily I didn’t have to leave Iz anywhere
