Liam, I’ve commented before, but I want to share again this indescribable feeling I get when watching one of your backpacking trips. When I first discovered your channel, it was WOW, FINALLY! Someone who has a true appreciation for nature, sport, endurance, mentality, challenges, and philosophy. I was amazed by your attitude, the shots, and the simplicity of life you were portraying-being honest about both hardships and pleasures. It was lovely because, through the screen, I got a glimpse of what it could be. With time, research, and hard work-saving up-I got my gear ready and ventured for the first time to Greece to try out your style. I visited Athens and then headed out to the Greek island of Milos, backpacking for four days. Searching for the most remote campsite, I realized that the most beautiful sights one can imagine are reserved for those who seek adventure, not mere resorts. Nature can be free, even though in modern times everything seems to have a cost, even delightful views. Standing on top of a mountain, with only my backpack & legs to support me, I felt a profound appreciation for reality. I stepped outside the constraints of social constructs, financial struggles, and conventional virtues-just mindfulness and silence to appreciate and be. Recently, after my favorite video of yours, Backpacking Madeira, I decided to give it a try. I completed the entire island on foot in five days. While resting in a little coffee shop in Machico, I rewatched your video, and tears of joy streamed down my face. I felt such gratitude for the inspiration you gave me. Thank you again, Liam Brown. Now I'm back to undergraduate life, school, traffic, work, and the chaotic sounds of the city of New York. I’m looking for the next opportunity to travel again, knowing it’s possible thanks to people like you. THANK YOU! Vitaly at its purest.
Your a great guy Liam, such an inspiration to others, it’s nice to see that you’ve travelled the parts of Ibiza that are quieter and show much more than the party night life that it’s well known for. Your gratitude and love for life and respect for nature in the places you visit will hopefully inspire others to do the same. Can’t wait for the your next adventure 👍
Hey Liam me and hubby Laurence have been watching your videos for months now. We think you are amazing ! So inspiring and soul warming to watch. You are always so level headed and positive. You find pleasure in simple things and are a great teacher. Carry on the epic journeys and we will continue to watch you on your travels . We travel a lot ourselves with our two small dogs and if we ever bump into you we would love to treat you to a nice beer or two and a slap up meal . ❤
Me and my partner have been watching your videos for a while now! We absolutely love your videos & you are very inspirational it always make my day when you upload! ✨
I enjoyed this sort of more toned down kind of walking Liam...just for a change.Lots of stops for swimming and eating and drinking is fun viewing.Sparky did well...but I did sense less enthusiasm for your hiking than you have for it😂😂..
Long time lurker, first time commenting. Liam your outlook on life is incredible. So much positivity and gratitude for the small things. You seem like a great friend too. Thanks for sharing these videos, it’s very inspiring!
Great video again Liam and nice you had some company for a change and it's nice to change things a bit. I prefer my own company and the peace and tranquility of being alone in nature but it's good to have some company now and again.
I noticed in your 2024 gear list video you use the same type of tent pegs as me. I don't know if you peg them in like me, they used to hurt the palm of my hand, so I went to B & Q and bought a small 'T' plastic plumbing junction that plumbers use to join plastic pipes together. I place my peg into the vertical part of the 'T' and push the peg in to the ground using the horizontal part of the 'T.' It works a treat! No more palm pain and no damage to the soles of my shoes.
Liam you are as tough as old boots nothing ever phases you lovely to see parts of Ibiza I have never seen, next time Sparky goes on a hike (if there is another one ) 😂tell him to take some Skin so soft by Avon it works a treat 😊
Thanks Liam for showing us the other side of Ibiza, I've always been curious as to what it's like, as I've seen walking guide books. It looked beautiful. It may have been the white t shirt that attracted the flies, as the same thing happened to us whilst hiking in Corfu....it drove my son crazy. 😅
I'm so glad I found your videos. I watched a bunch of them before walking my first Camino and you inspired me to finally start documenting my travels! I've been nomadic for 13 years but it's so nice to have a little record of my experiences and a small community now. I'm surprised to see you sharing the journey with someone! 😉
Brilliant video this Liam. I live in Ibiza, great to see you do a hike here, and some of the arial drone shots are great. It's a fantastic island for hiking, I've done the full coastline 250KM (in 10 consecutive Saturdays).
Interesting tension. I hope you are still friends. I too have been on walking journeys with friends and, being on different levels of expectation, it can cause tension after a few days. What is easy or comfortable for some is more arduous for others. I'd love to know how much a room in a cheap Ibiza hotel is, at a local walk-in rate. The higher star-rated tourist hotels are just stupid money in summer, and for not much more. My other comment would be that Ibiza, being relatively flat, is not as pretty an island to walk as, say, Majorca. Majorca also has better beaches - and perhaps a different reputation and an alternative core market tourist appeal. Great video again, though.
Love it Liam, it’s a beautiful island! 🙌🏼 I ran across Ibiza last summer and sumitted the highest point enroute (it’s not very high 😅) and was a great alternative way to experience the party capital! 🕺🏼 Some beautiful coastline! 😍 Look forwards to your next adventure!
Hi Liam. We really enjoy your videos. A tip: a slightly quieter camera movement is sometimes desired. But keep up the good style and good hiking in the future.
love your vids liam, mate. its cool imagining being on these trips with you, and seeing you bringing sparky with you makes it seem like it would be a great time. you've made me want to explore more of my beautiful country norway and i sure as heck will. enjoy your journeys mate, truly living life as you should and i wish you all well
Another amazing adventure liam, as always thank you for bringing us along with you as it really does cheer me up.... Also i wish you and haze outdoors would meet up one day and plan an epic adventure together as im convinced you would both get along with one another (my 2 favourite UA-camrs 😁)
Liam ive followed you for a while now , can you please explain on a video how you plan a trip , from maps , ideas , location , funding , please dont stop what your doing , im 65 and you inspire me , i would love to do this kind of thing x
Great video! The water around the Balearic islands is stunning. Hello from neighbouring Majorca👋. Pretty decent trails around the west and north coast.
Fab video as always! Could you tell me what walking shoes you’re currently wearing please? My husband needs a new pair and would value your opinion. Thanks 😊
This was different! I wonder if it felt more like a vacation to you slowing down and taking it easier for your friend? Really enjoyed it Liam and the blue water looked amazing!💖🦟😊
another great video, every time I do not want to do my 15,000 steps daily I watch a video and there I go. Hope one day you come to the United States. It would be interesting to see where the comments are coming from. I am in Ruskin, Florida (awaiting our next hurricane), Liam your videos as the best!
Interesting to see, wondering if you had been out there before, on the other side. I feel for Sparky, with the insects as I attract/don't repel them too. it's probably absence or presence of some pheromone. It really is time they worked it out and bottled it - if they can put men on the moon, they can do a societal good like this.
Don’t know if it’s just me but the wide angle lense was tripping me out a bit as it distorts the footage. I reckon stick to the normal lense on your phone. Nice video though!!
Another lovely video Liam, though I hope Sparky enjoyed the disco more than he enjoyed the hiking. Love the sound of the cicadas, along with the heat, my biggest memory of hiking in Southern Spain earlier this summer.
Hi Liam, great new video presented as usual in your unique way. Hope Sparky managed to recover from his insect inflicted wounds. Please don't branch out into UrbEx videos after you spent the night in the abandoned building.😀
Life is all about memories and Sparky will remember this forever. Good on him for giving it a go. Another great video Liam.

Sparky lost his spark real quick i think😂

Can you make a video showing how you plain your routes
Just look at a map mate
Another great video Liam, thank you and well done to both you and Sparky.
How fun. Great you took us along on your adventure with your friend. Kudos to him for making the whole walk. Loved the scenery
Great video sparky defo looks like he couldn’t wait to get on the strip 🤣
I spent my childhood going on family holidays to Ibiza. The quiet side is the one I know and love. I need to go back again as an adult!
Really been enjoying all these island walks Thanks Liam.

this is vastly different than my time in ibiza, but SOOO COOL! i love seeing this island from your perspective. how awesome!
Glad you got to see beautiful Ibiza. Its perfect out of party season

I travelled the island in the 90s and was in awe of it's beauty. Great vid 👌
Amazing to see Ibiza in a different light
Another great video, nice you had company & more of a chilled out trip
Thanks a million Liam, always inspiring! Looking forward to the next adventures :) Hope you're doing well

Awesome vid mate. Could see your mates enthusiasm dwindling by the minute but fair play to him for getting out there! Looks like a memorable trip
It's the tough adventures you remember most haha
I didn't think he had any mates
@@Afed390pretty unnecessary pal

It’s lovely to see the quiet countryside of Ibiza
Top man Liam. And to find out you enjoy gaming is class aswell. All round decent lad
Beautiful island and a great video 👌👏
Fantastic video Liam - Ibiza is a beautiful place
Great video! The water around the Balearic islands is stunning. Hello from neighbouring Majorca👋. Pretty decent trails around the west and north coast.
Hi Liam great video just walked the mountains in Mallorca not wild camping though I haven't got the stamina guess it needs loads of research too
I thought youd string your hammock between the pillars of the abandoned building. Top vid, Nice one!
Another great one Liam, been to ibiza a good few times only seen one side of it though😵💫, now I'm a older id love to check the north.
Fab video as always! Could you tell me what walking shoes you’re currently wearing please? My husband needs a new pair and would value your opinion. Thanks 😊
It was great to see you do this type of trip with a friend. Thanks for sharing.
In my home country. Safe travels.
Another great adventure Liam, and of course Sparky as well.
Great to see you with a pal for a wee change.
What a lad!
This was different! I wonder if it felt more like a vacation to you slowing down and taking it easier for your friend? Really enjoyed it Liam and the blue water looked amazing!💖🦟😊
My kind of lads holiday! 😎
Liam we love ibiza enjoyed.If you go again try East Coast it's stunning .santa eulalia , cala longa .
Nice too see sparky not on fishin frenzy
Solo walking with you is so much better.. Sorry Sparky.. Three's a crowd.. 😂
Went to portinax in the early 80s , beautiful ! 😊
Amazing video. Cool that you bought sparky along. Im curious What game did you guys meet on?
Man of few words Sparky isn’t he.
Gotta be only young lad who went Ibiza and not for the clout 😂 fairs man
Another great video mate
29:00 I thought I was watching camping with Steve 😂
Another sick video bro, anyone know which camera he uses?
Was the abandoned hotel at Cala den Serra ? Best beach in Ibiza imho . Be ther on Sunday 2 weeks exploring nice video been to every corner
Nice one Great video
With the month of October upon us, you should consider walk across Transylvania! That would be epic!
I bet Sparky is gutted ... lets go to Ibiza sez Liam, Ok mate San Antonio, Pacha, Cafe del Mar, young ladies out on the pull thinks Sparky ...
@@AndrewPaulK80 yeah but the real question is ... did they get laid 🤔
@@AndrewPaulK80 ? pretty sure he ends the video by saying hes getting bus and then plane. did u not watch it?
Great video!
another great video, every time I do not want to do my 15,000 steps daily I watch a video and there I go. Hope one day you come to the United States. It would be interesting to see where the comments are coming from. I am in Ruskin, Florida (awaiting our next hurricane), Liam your videos as the best!
Liam, please check out the Stockholm Archipelago Trail which opens next month (October 2024). I think you might like a new challenge 😊
Wow Amazing
Interesting to see, wondering if you had been out there before, on the other side.
I feel for Sparky, with the insects as I attract/don't repel them too. it's probably absence or presence of some pheromone. It really is time they worked it out and bottled it - if they can put men on the moon, they can do a societal good like this.
Sparky is a man of many words…. 😂
😂
He likes the word 'tired' tho
I travelled around the island in late 90's, remember lovely Portinax but getting stung by jellyfish..
Throwing some shapes 😂
You were literally where I was staying in early September on port di sant miguel. I was looking at the hotel on this vid
👍🏻🙋🏼♀️🇺🇸 Would love Ibiza !! ❤❤
Took me back 😂 Club 18-30 . Jo Devon 🙂
I don’t think sparky enjoyed his holly bobs.
Hi Liam, could you share the camera gear you use? Thanks!!!
Fairplay lad
Any chance you can attach a map of your wanderings?
I’m so proud of you Liam can’t wait for the next video
Sparky needed his PS5 😆
What time of year was this looks quiet
Looked good Liam how long did it take you?
Don’t know if it’s just me but the wide angle lense was tripping me out a bit as it distorts the footage. I reckon stick to the normal lense on your phone. Nice video though!!
This is a side of Ibiza I never knew existed 😅
Where do you get your disposable camera photos developed
Where do you get your cheap flights
Brillllllllk
Did sparky go off to reach for the lasers? 😃🤙
Sparky looks like he’s lost a pound and found a penny
Another lovely video Liam, though I hope Sparky enjoyed the disco more than he enjoyed the hiking. Love the sound of the cicadas, along with the heat, my biggest memory of hiking in Southern Spain earlier this summer.
hey i like games and hiking. wow we are the same :D what games you are playing?
I like Sparky
Hi Liam, great new video presented as usual in your unique way. Hope Sparky managed to recover from his insect inflicted wounds. Please don't branch out into UrbEx videos after you spent the night in the abandoned building.😀
The sun is shining everything is sweet man make you wana move
Go to Elba
