Hello Gary!! Saludos !! Quedó muy bueno el video!! Nice to meet you!! Enjoy your travel!! Welcome to Argentina. You see our beautifull country whit your own eyes. Cheers!!
Loving the videos Gary!! Interacting with the locals and making new friends is so awesome with solo travel. Your drone footage is amazing and I appreciate all your efforts. Leo in Canada.
Great episode! Glad the money situation got worked out. The drone is excellent at showing the complete destruction of that drowned city. The spontaneous friendships that happen while traveling- Thanks for taking the time and effort.
Yet again another exciting and diverse episode. So glad you found your numberplate, that would have difficult to overcome. Made me think I should carry a spare when I am travelling.
Gary if you go on revault you can get a virtual card that changes the account number everything you use it so it can't be copied and reused, you can transfer money into your usual account card on revault then exchange your euros into there currency on your virtual card, put the card on Google pay or Apple pay then use your phone as contactless to pay for fuel food and accommodation, it's much cheaper than western Union,, hope that makes sense, I've travelled in many countries doing the same thing there is only a small charge for the exchange into that currency. You can also go into banks and take out upto £250 a day, you still need a card as back up, not sure about Argentina, if there is many places that do contactless.
Can't complain about NOT getting enough excitement on your trip. Lost wallet, lost lic plate, wrong card cancelled etc. and you at the start of this EPIC adventure :) Bet you would mind a few dull days from now on 🤣
Hello Gary. Many things are happening during your trip. Not only exploring new places but also simple life like lost wallet. I hope you will get access to your money soon. Good luck!
Hi Sir, what you like this is better than any reality TV show( Gary has done it again, Ah no what the F_uk now!) You have been blessed as you seem to find such wonderful & helpful people everyday willing to help another complete stranger out so genuinely blowing away. Your far from trying to get a bit of containment do onsite.😂 Well you look after yourself & please keep entertaining us with your travels & experience 1st class ❤ keep her upright.
Hi Gary, these online banks are proving to be quite useful, I use Starling on trips abroad, very user friendly. Learning Spanish is turning out to be really useful, credit to you 😁✌🏻
Thanks Warren! Revolut has been a lifesaver. Learning Spanish is really a good investment, I have a few more words every day but opens more opportunities :)
Does Franco’s family have any plans to rebuild after the devastation that the floods caused? So sad. Argentina still appears to be a very genuinely giving and friendly place. Can’t believe that you found your license plate so easily 🤘
I would try and open a non resident bank account in a bank in Argentina and transfer the money there (and then maybe get their bank card). I assume it should not be too complicated, but dont really know the laws there.

Thanks Leo! I lived in Vancouver, Canada for a year. Really really liked it 🇨🇦
Wow, that picture showing the hight of the water was scary and sobering
Great episode!

Thanks Regina :)
Trees are ghost like...Happy New Year...safe travels
A bit late but happy new year to you too! :)

Hi David! Yes, I was so happy and lucky to find it. Would have been a tough one to sort over here if I didnt find it
I hope that the money problems will finally end :) Although for most they never end :)
Badass dude...keep it coming
Thank you!

Hi Graham! Thanks for sharing. That is exactly what i am doing now :)

I am waiting to get those few dull days BigJoe! haha

Haha great to hear from you Michael! Very much appreciate the words! 🙏
Really enjoyed this one again, I hope the right cards are cancelled now.
Shout out to Franco too. When he said the biker nod was like a horse 😂😂
Haha I got a good laugh off that myself watching it back
Challenging times. Good luck going forward.
Thanks

Thx for letting me tag along. How's the Kove behaving? Any issues at all? Stay safe!
So far so good Fred! 6800km currently
Great video Gary, grrrrr Banks 🤦 hope you got sorted. That town you visited which was flooded, what a tragedy 😢 how's the bike holding up?
Thanks Nigel! Bike is doing great (touch wood). 6800km on it now
Nice video! Might be an idea to keep some BTC as a backup. You can always find places to convert to local currency if you need it.
Yeah, not a bad shout.
Does Franco’s family have any plans to rebuild after the devastation that the floods caused? So sad. Argentina still appears to be a very genuinely giving and friendly place. Can’t believe that you found your license plate so easily 🤘
No, the last resident died last year. It is now preserved and all the other residents moved to the next town. I was blessed to find the plate!
Gary no lleva ningún tornillo en el radiador. El agujero del bloque es para que salga el agua acumulada en la bujía. Todo está bien.
Muchos Gracias!
I lost my license plate 40 miles before I got to Ushuaia. Rode back to Portland and was never questioned at the border or by the police.
:D
I always srew licence plate with drywall screws. It solve problem permamently.
Thats one way to solve it! I got a local mechanic to refit it

I hear you but Western Union and tap is working for me!
If that bank sends you a customer service survey, you should answer "No bueno."
Hahaha very much agreed
I don't speak enough Spanish to know if yours is any good, but the communication seems to be there..
I am getting by...lets put it that way haha
