    Dear Runa, I want to thank you for taking me along on your beautiful journey. I think I have watched them all, and the things that make it special is that you are so down to earth. So uncomplicated, so chill. I love it. Your filming technique is fabulous and the drone is fantastic and i love your taste in music. Why do I write to you now? I’m terminally ill and don’t have much time left. I would have loved to follow in your footsteps and trails but that’s not going to happen anymore. So I want you to know how much pleasure it has given me to follow you and see all the beautiful things on your way. You are a lovely person and I wanted to let you know you make a difference to many people. Especially to me. So dear Runa, keep going and keep riding and take us along!
    Thanks again! Best regards Norman.

      Norman, your comment left me with a lump in my throat. Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm so very sorry to hear about your situation. It's a true pleasure to be able to share my travels and experiences with you guys. I feel incredibly privileged to be able to do what I do, and you better know I will continue to travel and create content for as long as I can! Once again, thank you Norman for your kindness, and I hope you are doing well despite your situation.

    Lovely to see my beloved Te Wai Pounamu through Norwegian eyes! Your videos are a wonderful treat to a Kiwi, Runa, allowing me to see some places I have never visited. Just a wee note re Mount Aspiring: the word is pronounced "Ass-Pie-Ring" and is from the verb "to aspire". ie, to aim for better or higher things Just as you do with your epic motorcycle tours! 🙂

  • @Fenix_Projects
    @Fenix_Projects 4 місяці тому +3

    Runa, for me, these awesome episodes show your ever evolving vlogging"skills". This episode (and previous ones) is so beautiful, it shows the hard work of filming, in so many angels, really capturing the magic of the moment, the very clear use of the satellite maps in addition of the classic paper map, the added voice over comments ... all this combined with your own editing style ... makes for an amazing format. And ofcourse that feeling of wonder and amazement when seeiing yet another stunning view, plain happiness, that big smile ... i suspect only fellow travellers can really grasp these feelings. What made me smile especially was your FOMO explanation ... guilty as charged, hahaha, that one gets me on every singel travel. How many times i've turned back the next day after realising i drove past a special viewpoint/place. For then at the end of the vacation driving like crazy, making up for the lost time to get to the end destination on time. Also your mentioning of the starfilled clear nightsky ... not many realise how limited our nightsky view is due to city lightpollution. When there is no danger of beiing eaten alive by all kinds of bugs, it can be a humbling experience watching this awesome view of our little corner in the universe. So many awakened memories by watching this vlog ... 👌🥰👍

    Hi Runa, So happy you enjoyed your great NZ trip, yes around nearly every corner there is a new spectacular view. I was lucky to do the west coast about 10 years ago and was able to walk over a few hills to the ice cave mouth of the stream flowing under FOX Glacier. It has now melted retreated far back high up the valley. Cant wait for your Te Anau - Milford Sound episode, I drove that twice because I just had to go back again. Another terrific video and great sound choice Runa, thanks so much for sharing again.🤩🤩🤩🦘🦘

    I'm so fortunate living in NZ now and even more so that i will be doing a similar tour to you. Bucket list is (my home) Tauranga to Invercargill Motorcycle Mecca Museum on my BMW F900xr and you have given me so many ideas. I just booked Klondyke corner!! Thanks Runa, if it wasn't for watching your vlog I probably wouldn't be planning my trip for February 2025 .
    Hey, a very serious question.....any tips on dealing with the sand flies. Seems like it's a big deal so any advice would DEFINITELY be appreciated. I am concerned it might ruin the trip. I think they like Nordik blood...

      That is awesome, Craig 😃 Happy to hear you got your trip planned, I have no doubt you will have a wonderful time! I got so many different advice on sandflies through these episodes but I can hardly remember any 😂 DEET is probably a safe bet, tea three oil should be good (worked alright for scratching too), anti histamin cream, some mentioned vinegar but not sure you would want to travel with that. Other than that, just make sure to cover up! Put your pant legs into your socks etc.

    I'm impressed. I rate Pleasant Flat Sandflies as some of the worst in NZ.

    Great video, as always. Someone should pay a scientist to eradicate sandflies (totally) and then the West Coast and Fiordland would be paradise.

    Only in New Zealand do you ride through a rain forest to view a glacier! Beautiful but I do not know how you stand the bugs Runa. I passed on a trip to Alaska, paid travel and lodging, after watching videos of the mosquitos n biting bugs.

    • @OffSheGoesADV
      @OffSheGoesADV  4 місяці тому

      Hahah it is a strange combination, isn't it! The bugs were pretty much bad only in the evenings, and I could take shelter in my tent so it wasn't really a huge problem 😊
