The 15th of January of 2015 has been a very special day for me. I met 75 year old Alberto Gutierrez, also known as the Stone Man, in his beautiful home deep in the Tisey Estanzuela Natural Reserve. He has been carving stones there for almost half of his life and will proudly present his work, should you make the effort of paying him a visit.
My second travel tales short form video features the Bloukrans Bridge Bungee Jump in South Africa, one of the highest bridges you can take off and plunge 216m towards the ground! A truly “breathtaking” experience which sadly ends very fast again! If you are into adrenaline stuff, I highly recommend this quick stop over literally right on the garden route.
In this short video, I am sharing some of my Hitchhiking experiences from the USA. After struggling to get a ride near Escalante due to the proximity of a high-security prison, an elderly former NASCAR racer called Crazy Joe rescued me and let me stay in his shed near the prison. Followed up with a new ride next morning turning into my personal tour guide, these experience make up for my first short-video “Travel Tales” format 🙂
