I watched your entire Camino videos from start to finish. I will be walking the Camino for the first time in 2020 when I am 70 years old!!! I gained so much info from your videos and certainly took down notes. You made me laugh at your funny comments and I can hardly wait for my adventure.
Loved your production and of course your journey Efren! I did the Camino with my wife. She is still working and I'm recently retired so our time was super limited to a week. Naturally, we had to pick Sarria as a starting point. Your video brought back the lovely memories we have of Galicia and the people and pilgrims we met there. Thank you for taking the time to do this for us out there. Buen Camino
Great VLOG! What time of year did you do this one? I'll also be doing my first Camino next Spring (2020) after finally retiring at the end of 2019. I'll be 71 :-).
maria flores my daughter and I walked it last spring....I’m 70... and injured just before I left....determination, tears and so much laughter got me through. Best days of my life....there isn’t a day goes by where some wonderful flash back brings memorable memories.
In two weeks time, I am undergoing surgery for weight loss, with a view to starting my Camino next year, your videos are keeping me motivated and hopefully I will get the health and mobility back to complete this undertaking. Keep moving forward you are really helping others like me to strive to improve our health to follow in your footsteps.
This Camino actually changed my life, I have lived a life of 24/7 but when took my first steps up the mountain it released a passion for Spain and walking. My grandfather was Spanish and my walk wasn't without drama's spending the night in San Pedro Hospital after collapsing. Suffering from dehydration, waking up with 4 stitches on my nose and 2 black eyes taking the drip at of arm and catching a taxi back to Najera to get my backpack and walk in the pouring rain to Santo Domingo.
We are just home from walking the Camino and we watched all of your videos (well those you had posted) before we went! Am enjoying them even more and reliving my memories! Thank you so much...you have done an AMAZING job!
SummitXtreme Love both. Complete different experience. We are looking forward to your Vlog. Of the Primitivo! Exciting times!! The Camino is just magic. Magnetic power on ones foot soles. 😊 We are doing the Primitivo in October this year. Happy walking!
you are very right. i took my headphones but I never used them during the walk... NATUR is the best actor and entertainer.. thanks for sharing. bless you
All your videos are great! They set the standard for Camino Vlogs! For those who have not walked the Camino Frances yet, if you have any concerns at all about your fitness then spent the first night at Orisson (where Efrén had breakfast), there is a very good communal dinner experience and you will meet people who you will see during the whole Camino. Your bunk and dinner will cost about 38 Euros, which might seem high for the Camino, but for me it was worth it.
I have watched your whole trip and loved every minute of it. I walked the same route in May 2016 except I walked on to Muxia before getting a bus to Fisterra. You did the Way real justice with your videos. Nice one Efren.
Your Camino videos are by far my favorite that I have found on UA-cam! I am watching Day 07 right now. Very well done! I am going from April 8th to May 24th, 2018, so it is great to get an idea of what the weather could be like for me. I can't wait. :-)
"The Wall... too soon?" that is funny!! I had to quickly look at when you published this video. I'll be watching your videos in sequence and thank you so much to people like you who take the time to educate us all! I'm planning on an April 2019 trip and I'm looking forward to watching not just the scenery and your life philosophies but also your photo and video techniques. But I'll be bringing a small Sony mirrorless. A Canon DSLR with a 24-70 is just plain crazy. I, too hope to publish my take on my Camino Way, Just hoping for continued good health. Buen Camino!
Making plans to walk the Camino next April (2020). These videos are great for a newbie like me to get a flavour of what it feels like to start off on the journey. I appreciate the effort you've taken in compiling this vlog, and the work that's gone into making them. Thank you.
I walked the Camino in 2017 & was planning to walk again this year! So I've been walking at home in NZ ,am part of a Virtual Camino group & re-watching your fantastic videos which I devoured in 2017😊👍Thank you!!!
Finally I found the video I've been looking for ☀️🌷😂. I wanted to see the climb up the Pyrenees to get an idea of its difficulty. I live up in a town at 8000 ft above sea level so I think I'll be fine. I love the misty parts ❤️ we're presently in our monsoon season and it's gonna be mist for 3 months 😂. Thank you Efren 🌷 your video prepares me well ☀️
I also chose not to listen to music at all along the Camino. At home, I’m listening to music all the time, and I wanted to live a completely different life on the Camino. It was the right decision. I had nothing but blue skies and sun for most of my Camino. I only got the rain on one day close to Santiago and then two days on the way to Finisterre. Clear skies and sun versus walking in the fog make for two completely different Caminos.
good point on the hiking poles. i was thinking about bringing them, but as you say its only one day in the camino where you really need them. great video.
Doesn't look like I'll be walking a Camino this summer. Hope and pray that these turbulent times in the world change soon. Until then I'm walking the Camino vicariously through your videos, lol. Mind you, I've walked it six times already, three different routes, lol. I really enjoyed Saint Jean Pied de Port. Such a lovely little French/Basque town and those first steps out the stone rampart onto the Camino the first morning are almost magical to experience.
El Camino Francés sigue siendo la madre de los Caminos, fue el primero y caminé demasiado rápido y no aprecié la historia, pero después de ver tus vlogs volveré a caminar por última vez.
I will watch all the videos... I did the Camino in July-August (2018) and I was looking for information for my photos and I found out your videos. Thank you for sharing your experience. And I am looking forward to see all those footage from the drone... It's a different perspective. By the way... The red and white and blue stripes that you see (saw) in some parts of the Camino... They are routes. In case of the white-blue-white it means that you are in a European long-distance paths (or only E-path), and there is one called E3 path that covers many countries in Europe, and it goes along the Camino de Santiago. The red-white is another long-distance footpath, but this one doesn't cover so many countries in Europe. The name of this one is Grande Randonnée (or Gran Recorrido, or simply GR). In this case you/we walked in the GR65. There is another curiosity with the indications. You might see along the way some blue arrows (I think I saw it in Santiago de Compostela or on the way to Finisterre/Fisterra). Well, some people say that is to indicate the Camino backwards... Others believe that is to indicate the route to Fátima (in Portugal). Sorry for the long comment... Ultreia!
Saludos, Efren…aquí volviendo a repasar tu video de El Camino; aprovecho la oportunidad para agradecerte todo el esfuerzo en la preparación de la serie de tus videos ya luego de haberlo realizarlo en el 2019 y verlo nuevamente ahora verdaderamente reconozco todo el esfuerzo que le pusiste. Gracias!!! Tu serie de videos sobre el Camino Frances me ayudo e inspiro grandemente en mi preparación para realizar el camino. Definitivamente, fue una de las mejores experiencias de mi vida. Ultreya!!!
Stunning photography. I have seen videos from other pilgrims shot on GoPros and cell phones of this portion of the route. I appreciate their offerings but in comparison your Day 1, looks like an Oscar winning achievement. Please keep them coming. Do you wish you brought the hiking poles?
En Roncesvalles los vascos derrotaron al ejercito de Carlomagno (emperador del Sacred Roman Empire) alli perdio la vida Roldan (Roland para los franceses) yerno de Carlomagno y par de Francia (los pares de Francia eran como el equivalente de los caballeros de la mesa redonda del Rey Arturo de Inglaterra)
@@VictorineUnabia Yes, it was rainy and foggy for part of the time we were in the Pyrenees. It had actually snowed a few days before we arrived and we thought we might have to stay another night in St. Jean because the Ronceveaux Pass might be closed. But fortunately, the weather was fine and we were able to start when we originally planned. The day we crossed over to Ronceveaux it was actually sunny but chilly.
EfrenMy simple brain -and-I are confused. Is there ANY difference between your Camino covered in 'EFREN' and 'SUMMITXTREME'? N.b. I don't think this is necessary a stupid question.My Mum thinks I am a moron for asking it and, yet , I HAD to ask it........
I seems you started the walk in mid April and finished in late May.Is this correct? What was a typical temperature when you started each morning (in C) and what was it by (say) mid morning.It seems ( from watching your videos) that at 7am it could be 5-7 Celsius and 15-20 Celsius by mid morning? Does this sound correct?
Hi Rob. sorry it took this long to reply to your comment but it was in my junk mail. temperature varied greatly through the trip as a cold front hit northern Spain during the time i was there (April - May) having said that for the most part when it was cold it was below 10c and it would always warm up to around 20c midday.
Morgan Doel honestly I didn't have a cellphone plan in Spain. I only relied on wifi at the Albergues and bars. Never made a reservation myself but I did see a lot of people doing it and it worked for them. I was also on the shoulder season. If you are walking in the summer then I highly recommend you do them. Buen camino my friend.
joe it wasn't hot enough for bed bugs. I had a sleeping bag and most albergues provided clean sheets. I also saw people spraying their beds to kill them. Personally I didn't have an issue as for medicine I took ibuprofen (it helped a lot) and a blister kit. That's about it. You can see everything I took in detail in my gear video.
hola Efren..ya casi lista p mi camino..salgo en menos de dos meses..tengo una pregunta...well 1 millon jajaja empezare x una....tratando de ahorrar cuantas hras te llevo caminar de SJPDP hasta Orisson? tendre q decidir si me quedo a dormir en SJPDP o empezar ni bien lleggue y dorm,ir en Orisson...muchos opinan que es mejor hacerlo asi para no cansarse tanto y para disfrutar de la montana...gracias.....tus videos son como mi biblia p el camino.....carinos y gracias :)
Hola gloria, gracias! En mi opinión no es necesario quedarse en Orisson pero cada cual hace el camino a su propio ritmo. Creo que me tomo unas dos o tres horas en llegar ahí. es un albergue bien pequeño y no hay nada alrededor.
Hi Efren, I have a hard question foe you, if you only have 10 days to do the French and you really want to finish at SDC, how would you distribute those ten days / stages? And coming back to do rest is not an option!! Thank you.
To be honest with you. The last ten days are not the best. Forget the compostela it's just a piece of paper. Start in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port or better yet walk from Le Puy en Valley to Conques
Very professional and well done. I like the thoroughness! I’m currently am on Day 8, and will watch them through to the end. I walked the French Route in ‘16. Walked the Portuguese in ‘17. Thought about bringing my Mavic, but couldn’t at the last minute. Did you have any hassles with it? Great job,
Thank you nachjer. Didn't have a problem with the mavic. Only one store owner had a problem with it but after a talk he didn't mind it anymore just curious. I was very discreet as to not bother others.
The Flickering cause by 60 mhz.... europe is 50 mhz you said.... but how does that affect you editing in Florida? What gear was affected? (formatting the cards?) still don't understand.
Its visual flicker and doesn't affect anything else. If you set the shutter to 50 it goes away but I did not notice it on my small LCD screen. I believe you can also change it on the camera settings which I will do on my next trip the via francigena.
so nothing to do with europe. amazed with your agility with the 5D and gorilla. you must have applied post steady shot to iron out the jitter. and guessed your framing. Your narration was very good but it was always you in the frame. Hard to believe your framing. They just finished and Droned alot. ua-cam.com/channels/rLTabOV29R-5v6zWTlEKyA.html (we in the UK look forward to leaving the EU regulations..... one of which prohibits a Still shot camera running more then 30 mins of video at a time.)
Efrén me di cuenta mientras seguia escuchandote... Me encantan tus vlogs y me faltan por ver. Gracias por compartir... El Camino me llama- bien fuerte- plan original es ir en Mayo 2021- todo depende que pase a finales de agosto en el trabajo! ☺️
I watched your entire Camino videos from start to finish. I will be walking the Camino for the first time in 2020 when I am 70 years old!!! I gained so much info from your videos and certainly took down notes. You made me laugh at your funny comments and I can hardly wait for my adventure.

My wie and I walked the Camino at 70, arrived Santiago 10/5/18. Trekking poles and trail runner shoes a half size larger than every day shoes!
Great VLOG! What time of year did you do this one?
I'll also be doing my first Camino next Spring (2020) after finally retiring at the end of 2019. I'll be 71 :-).
maria flores my daughter and I walked it last spring....I’m 70... and injured just before I left....determination, tears and so much laughter got me through. Best days of my life....there isn’t a day goes by where some wonderful flash back brings memorable memories.
I suppose you had to change to 21 like me because of Covid.
6 years..wow. I still watch your videos every year since I was a day or two behind. Keeps me connected! Can't wait to get back .
Thanks Rey. I'm so glad you enjoy them. I can't wait to get back myself.
Just love your original dialogue amigo, each of your camino's it changes ever so slightly as you mature.
Brother gotta say I’ve watched heaps on the camino as prep. Yours is by far the best in terms of everything. So enjoyed it. Thank you.
Great videos! Finally looked at the filmed date and realized you started one day before I did.
In two weeks time, I am undergoing surgery for weight loss, with a view to starting my Camino next year, your videos are keeping me motivated and hopefully I will get the health and mobility back to complete this undertaking. Keep moving forward you are really helping others like me to strive to improve our health to follow in your footsteps.
I hope your surgery went well!
Good luck planning your camino!
How did it go?
How did it go?
Gave me a good feel for the first leg, which at 73, I've been worrying about. Thanks.
Essential viewing for those undertaking the Camino. Brings back some great memories!

We are just home from walking the Camino and we watched all of your videos (well those you had posted) before we went! Am enjoying them even more and reliving my memories! Thank you so much...you have done an AMAZING job!
Buddy - your first response of "fuck it - I got nothing!" is amazing. Glad you enjoyed that varied trip my friend!
You are the most fun!!!
What a joy to watch!! Thanks for sharing. We walked the Camino Frances in 2014 and the Camino Primitivo in 2016.
Which one do you like best? I'm thinking of doing primitivo this year
SummitXtreme Love both. Complete different experience. We are looking forward to your Vlog. Of the Primitivo! Exciting times!! The Camino is just magic. Magnetic power on ones foot soles. 😊
We are doing the Primitivo in October this year. Happy walking!
Btw...the Primitivo is less crowded and you may walk a day, not seeing any peregrinos.
...and, add the way to Muxia as a cherry on top. You will smile all the way🙂
Fabulous series. Truly the best documentary out there. You are great with the camera and I love your commentary. Thank you for doing.
Great video. I walked it April/May 2017. Now I want to do it again.
Day2 camino
Talk about binge watching!!! Loved reliving my camino. Thank you!
you are very right. i took my headphones but I never used them during the walk... NATUR is the best actor and entertainer.. thanks for sharing. bless you
One of the best series on the Camino hands down 👊 well done dude
Oh well done - looking forward to reliving the Camino with you. Amazing camera work. Thank you!
Thank you for the drone videos. I've done the Camino but now I get to see aerial views. Cool!
Hard day to Roncesvalles. Tough walk but so scenic.
challenging way to start a long pilgrimage
All your videos are great! They set the standard for Camino Vlogs!
For those who have not walked the Camino Frances yet, if you have any concerns at all about your fitness then spent the first night at Orisson (where Efrén had breakfast), there is a very good communal dinner experience and you will meet people who you will see during the whole Camino.

I simply love this part of France, its incredible

Thanks for the tip about the sticks 👍 I contemplated 2 but now I know I will only be taking 1 ☀️
Really interesting, loved seeing the scenery, brought back memories of my trip last year. That first day has some gorgeous scenery
Great video, a very different perspective to the others I've watched and glad it showed some terrain on the first day out of SJPDP
At 1:45 best advise ever👍👍 fully agree.
Great video! Thank you for sharing your journey. It's given me a better idea of what the 'The Way' will be like when I start.
I also chose not to listen to music at all along the Camino. At home, I’m listening to music all the time, and I wanted to live a completely different life on the Camino. It was the right decision.

Thanks Efren - Keep Em Coming - Totally Hooked !!!
good point on the hiking poles.
i was thinking about bringing them, but as you say its only one day in the camino where you really need them.
great video.
Keep watching... I ended up needing them.
Doesn't look like I'll be walking a Camino this summer. Hope and pray that these turbulent times in the world change soon. Until then I'm walking the Camino vicariously through your videos, lol. Mind you, I've walked it six times already, three different routes, lol.

thanks, it was the beginning of a new passion.
Wonderful. Thank you
El Camino Francés sigue siendo la madre de los Caminos, fue el primero y caminé demasiado rápido y no aprecié la historia, pero después de ver tus vlogs volveré a caminar por última vez.
I am starting it in 2 weeks!!!! I can't believe it's happening!
buen camino. I should be reaching Santiago just as you start.
Great start. Can't wait to see how you get on!!
Craig Smillie it gets better and I loosen up a bit lol maybe a lot
Great video. Really enjoying them.
Loved every minute of it!
I will watch all the videos... I did the Camino in July-August (2018) and I was looking for information for my photos and I found out your videos.

Well, some people say that is to indicate the Camino backwards... Others believe that is to indicate the route to Fátima (in Portugal).
Sorry for the long comment...
Ultreia!
I'm doing this one day, hopefully soon...and I'm bringing my drone too!! Thanks for sharing your experience.
That's amazing! Thank you for sharing!🙏🏻✨
I love the wise words!
Great comment about the wall. I really had to laugh. I am really looking forward to your videos.

Theodore Rzepski thani you. I wish I would have. At least one. They come in handy on downhills and if your feet hurt.

5 stars , Love the Vlogs Efren
Hey, you walked the Camino the same year I did!! I started from St. Jean in May 2017!
Hi! How was the weather in May? Was it rainy and foggy at the Pyrenees?
@@VictorineUnabia Yes, it was rainy and foggy for part of the time we were in the Pyrenees. It had actually snowed a few days before we arrived and we thought we might have to stay another night in St. Jean because the Ronceveaux Pass might be closed. But fortunately, the weather was fine and we were able to start when we originally planned. The day we crossed over to Ronceveaux it was actually sunny but chilly.
Love you videos, thx!
mad house? yes only mad people like us go walking to Europe! I love it!
So far I am loving your videos. What time of the year did you walk?
I love your video! When do you started el Camino de Santiago. What months.? Thank you! Buen Camino.😀
thank you pilar. I started April 17th.
Excelente!!! la única pregunta que tenia me la respondiste al final... genial Aventura gracias por compartirla!
No me dejes en suspenso
SummitXtreme hahaha bueno... que te iba a preguntar el gasto diario y eso lo colocaste al final ☺️👍
GOOD VIDEOS!
Great videos! When was your starting date and ending date? I'm curious about prepping for the weather.
D LP April 18 - May 24 (Fisterra)
Un video magnífico, con todos los detalles, tiempo, ruta, coste......que pena que esté en inglés y sólo me halla enterado de la mitad.
Good job. Going there next Aug. it is a mentor
I’m going there in 2 days!!
Hola Efren, excelente video. Como se llama el albergue? Gracias.
Gracias. Hostel Roncesvalles y Albergue Concejo de Larrasoaña son los dos que salen en este vlog.
The hardest days comes after , in the first day your fresh.. Best shoes Are sneakers. ( summer). 2 short, 2 tshirs dryfit
carrying a drone for the whole camino - very dedicated! awesome video :)
I sacrificed on creature comforts but It was worth it in the end.
EfrenMy simple brain -and-I are confused. Is there ANY difference between your Camino covered in 'EFREN' and 'SUMMITXTREME'? N.b. I don't think this is necessary a stupid question.My Mum thinks I am a moron for asking it and, yet , I HAD to ask it........
sorry it took me this long to reply. it is one and the same. I just changed the channel name from SummitXtreme to Efren
MERCI
Great videos! What date did you leave St Jean? I have a feeling it was close to when my fiance and I left there.
Thank you. April- May
Definitely did it the same time as you! Just saw myself at the cathedral during the mass on your DAY 33 video.
That's awesome
Buenísimo!
Haha, No lie, I slept on that exact same bed last year when I walked it, I hope you didn't get bed bugs! 😂
Ryan lol
Looks like you are pretty cold. Would you have preferred to have left towards the end of April or the beginning of May instead? Love your video.
I rather walk in this kind of weather
Great job! I'm looking forward to my Camino in 2019. What was your departure date? Thanks.
I seems you started the walk in mid April and finished in late May.Is this correct? What was a typical temperature when you started each morning (in C) and what was it by (say) mid morning.It seems ( from watching your videos) that at 7am it could be 5-7 Celsius and 15-20 Celsius by mid morning?

Love your videos. Which year did you do your Camino ? I did mine in 2016. Leaving from Puy en Velay, in France.
April - May 2017
I had sheep from Velay, France.
Good to see you at it again. What caused you do done a trek that you had done before? Also, what date did you start your walk?
Great video, I can't wait to see more!
I'm starting my Camino this month too, did you book ahead for Roncevalles ?
Morgan Doel honestly I didn't have a cellphone plan in Spain. I only relied on wifi at the Albergues and bars. Never made a reservation myself but I did see a lot of people doing it and it worked for them. I was also on the shoulder season. If you are walking in the summer then I highly recommend you do them. Buen camino my friend.
SummitXtreme Thank you the quick reply and good advice!😊
SummitXtreme Can't find after Day 20! Where to find it?
How did you take care of bed bugs? If you had, how did you and what medicine did you bring in details?
joe it wasn't hot enough for bed bugs. I had a sleeping bag and most albergues provided clean sheets. I also saw people spraying their beds to kill them. Personally I didn't have an issue as for medicine I took ibuprofen (it helped a lot) and a blister kit. That's about it. You can see everything I took in detail in my gear video.
When did you start ? I think I was a couple days behind you. I started April 27th. Great footage like being there again! Thank you for that.
Thanks tim. I started on April 18
It looked real familiar I guess I was a week behind you then 😀
hola Efren..ya casi lista p mi camino..salgo en menos de dos meses..tengo una pregunta...well 1 millon jajaja empezare x una....tratando de ahorrar cuantas hras te llevo caminar de SJPDP hasta Orisson? tendre q decidir si me quedo a dormir en SJPDP o empezar ni bien lleggue y dorm,ir en Orisson...muchos opinan que es mejor hacerlo asi para no cansarse tanto y para disfrutar de la montana...gracias.....tus videos son como mi biblia p el camino.....carinos y gracias :)

How much training did you do? You seem to have done this first day so much quicker than a lot of the people I’ve seen.
Zero tranning per say but I'm an avid hiker and I've hiked three of the 7 summits. I went on el Camino less than a month after I found out about it.
Efren thank you!
@@Walk_with_Efren I went less than a month after I found out as well. No training, but I walk a lot. Had no issues. Love your videos. You make it fun.
What month is this? May (2017)? Thank you.
April- May 2017. Specific dates on the video's description.
Hi Efren,
I have a hard question foe you, if you only have 10 days to do the French and you really want to finish at SDC, how would you distribute those ten days / stages?
And coming back to do rest is not an option!!
Thank you.
To be honest with you. The last ten days are not the best. Forget the compostela it's just a piece of paper. Start in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port or better yet walk from Le Puy en Valley to Conques
@@Walk_with_Efren muchas gracias hermano 👍
Buen consejo .!
So if 260mhz was the wrong setting, what was?
50
Very professional and well done. I like the thoroughness! I’m currently am on Day 8, and will watch them through to the end. I walked the French Route in ‘16. Walked the Portuguese in ‘17. Thought about bringing my Mavic, but couldn’t at the last minute. Did you have any hassles with it? Great job,
Thank you nachjer. Didn't have a problem with the mavic. Only one store owner had a problem with it but after a talk he didn't mind it anymore just curious. I was very discreet as to not bother others.
Nachjer, If someone could only do one route which would you recommend? French? Portuguese?
Theodore Rzepski the French Route has a lot of cool things on it. The Portuguese Route is less travelled. I would choose the French Route.
Thanks nacjer
The Flickering cause by 60 mhz.... europe is 50 mhz you said.... but how does that affect you editing in Florida? What gear was affected? (formatting the cards?) still don't understand.
Its visual flicker and doesn't affect anything else. If you set the shutter to 50 it goes away but I did not notice it on my small LCD screen. I believe you can also change it on the camera settings which I will do on my next trip the via francigena.
so nothing to do with europe.
amazed with your agility with the 5D and gorilla. you must have applied post steady shot to iron out the jitter. and guessed your framing. Your narration was very good but it was always you in the frame. Hard to believe your framing.
They just finished and Droned alot. ua-cam.com/channels/rLTabOV29R-5v6zWTlEKyA.html
(we in the UK look forward to leaving the EU regulations..... one of which prohibits a Still shot camera running more then 30 mins of video at a time.)
How did you get the shot of you walking along?
DJI Mavic pro drone

If you have done the Camino you can try the Mary Michael Pilgrims Way in the UK - only 350 miles marymichaelpilgrimsway.org/route/
What time of year did you go? :D

April May
Efren, eres Boricua? ☺️
Cubano
Efrén me di cuenta mientras seguia escuchandote... Me encantan tus vlogs y me faltan por ver. Gracias por compartir... El Camino me llama- bien fuerte- plan original es ir en Mayo 2021- todo depende que pase a finales de agosto en el trabajo! ☺️
At 0:26. Dude!, it is not megahertz per second, only 60 hertz. Otherwise great videos, love them.
That's exactly what my dad, the engineer, told me. What can I say. It slipped my tongue.
Too soon 😂😂😂😂😂
lol
Too soon! 😂
Opening words for the Camiño are "Eff it?" Really?
That's how it started you should see how it's going
@@Walk_with_Efren Lost interest @ the vulgarity.
Buen camino
@@willmcgrane6359 don’t be too precious. The vlogs are not vulgar despite a rare swearword here and there.
To soon?😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
