    This was one of the most intense places weā€™ve ever traveled to.. We werenā€™t fully prepared to how intense it would really be, but are grateful for the friendly locals we ended up connecting with šŸ™ hope you enjoyed this short documentary
  • Fidel was my tour guide on the Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu in March 2023. He is such a sweet and amazing person, such a kind soul. I had the pleasure to travel with him for 5 days. I canā€™t believe I just came across this video and saw him here completely by coincidence. Much love for Fidel, you are awesome šŸ¤
  • @adamadeptus3686
    Be very, very careful. You guys were very trusting and it reminded me of myself when I travelled to Havana last year. I met some friendly locals. They spent the whole day with me and invited me out to a restaurant at night. We had a great time at the restaurant. Except that they drugged my drink. Then, when we left, they jumped me. Beat me viciously, leaving me bleeding from the head, with severe bruising on the side from kicks, and a fractured leg. They also stole my phone all of my money and left me bleeding on the ground. Never again will I be so naive when travelling. Beware.
  • Those drone shots are nuts. I still canā€™t get over the fact that anyone with a backpack full of gear can pull off shots that were only possible with a chartered helicopter 10 years ago.
  • @soraiagomes5002
    Fidel was literally your blessing, I'm not sure how things would've gone without him. I seriously hope he gets everything he desires as a "reward" for being such a nice, kind-hearted soulā˜ŗ
  • @RogTX
    ā€œyou are a magnet to good peopleā€. he couldnā€™t have said it better to this miner.
  • Adela seemed so exhausted and tired. I hope she finds peace and relaxation soon.
  • That coal worker named Fidal is a real one. What an amazing guy, so kind and helpful. Great video as always ā¤
  • @tommyjames3993
    Whenever I go to a foreign country and want to blend in with the locals I always wear yellow pants.
  • @KosovaSoundHD
    You had the worst clothes to show up to a dangerous city. Keep low profile next times. Great Video!
  • @Taizuren
    you can just hear the pain and sorrow in Adela's voice....so heartbreaking
  • @tiagomartinho77
    A bright yellow jacket in a lawless city in order to keep a low profile. Seems reasonable...
  • This is absolutely the 1st video sponsor I have seen in 10 years, with an actually useful and relavent product not widely known... AND he didn't milk it!? Ads done right.
  • @drewbinsky
    La Rinconada has been on my list for 5+ years and Iā€™m so glad to see you guys made it there. I most likely wonā€™t visit and itā€™s a pleasure to be able to sit back, with a cup of coffee in hand, and watch this from the comfort of my home. Love you guys !!!! šŸ‡µšŸ‡Ŗā¤ļø
  • I am French-Peruvia and have lived in the comfort of a rich country my whoe life. I feel a deep connection to these people . Thank you for showing their lives without judging them.
  • @otpays8552
    That guy with the smile was a bright light in a dark tunnel. Amazing person
  • @MrFreddarama
    I worked in the mining industry of that part of Peru. At first i would get sick and feel very light headed. When i worked i would huff and puff a lot. After working up there for a year my body had totally adapted and i could labour all day without feeling ill. Its amazing how the human body can adapt to extreme environments and thanks for the very nice video.
  • @Arne_Boeses
    Man I would love to see Fidel on another adventure with you guys. Such a beautiful soul ā¤
  • I'm glad the documentaey was short and that you got the hell out of there. What a man made disaster in a place that should have been pristine. It was an eye opener. If you guys didn't go there most of us wouldn't know that place exists. The poisoned water. Omg. I feel like you guys had a target on your backs, if you stayed longer trouble might have found you as desperate people do dangerous things. You were cold, tired, and not acclimatised. The drone footage and video was great. Just stay safe guys.
