Walking through the streets of Girona, Spain while telling a story about the previous day, in which I traveled from the island of Ibiza to the Pyrenees mountains of northern Spain by plane and bus.

This is filmed in Girona, not Girano. I got it wrong a couple times. As far as the song "I Took a Pill in Ibiza", while checking the song to see how he pronounced it I went down a little rabbit hole and watched a couple other videos of Mike Posner, including one in which he explains the inspiration for the song, which currently has 1.5 billion views on Youtube (yes, billion). The story of what led to the song is a complete fluke and not a happy one. Pretty interesting, you can see his explanation here on Logan Paul's podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHZvNG6ejRk
Vancouver island awaits you Gabe , but as you know B.C means bring cash ! I have a suite for you in Ladysmith. Hit me up anytime! Really enjoy your videos, number 1 travel vlogger . Thanks for sharing ๐จ๐ฆ๐๐บ๐ฅ๐
We're still spending billions on their defense. While we can barely fill potholes in the roads here and our vets are homeless.
"Watch it Glow" and traveling Gabriel style on the edge. Thanks Gabe Cheers, Happy Holiday.
There isn't a lot and it's expensive, story of accommodations in Western Europe.
Gabe u need to travel with a minder, to do all the research, bookings and finding cheap ATMโs etc, etc ๐โ ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
cheers
I took the train up there from barcelona it was a nice day trip, was back in time to Barcelona for dinner
Very much enjoy your storytelling and look forward to your videos.
Candanchu is a fabulous resort. Been there a few times. A must see if you wanna ride some lifts
Pink Floyd has a song called Ibiza Bar.
โคโคโคโคโคbeautiful
I love the way you make a simple story so long and complex, unique style.
๐๐๐
Great videos
French villages on the French side of the Pyrenees are magnificent.
Weโre are going next
My wife being Colombian ive traveled there several times and got hit with expensive fees in rural areas … when I cant avoid it I take the maximum amount of money I can out
Are you going to ๐ฌ๐ฎ
It would be worth getting a Revolut card as there is no charges on the exchange rate.
Catalan is the official native language of the island and they say Eivissa, pronuounced simply as "Ee-vee-sa." The Spanish (Castilian) call the island Ibiza and pronunce the "z" with a "th." Both words are derived from "Ebusus." That is what the Romans called the island.
Catalan: Eivissa
Castilian: Ibiza (pronounced with a "th")
American/British: Ibiza (pronounced the way it is spelled)
Never been. One of the best Michelin starred restaurants in the world is in Girona (El Celller de Can Roca). Keep up the vids in Spain Gab ๐
5% left … why not to use mobile recharger? At least I always take one with me in my trips
Hola Gab, nice city, thank you for shearing, waiting next video. Chaos
Just flown back to the UK from Girona, what a lovely laidback airport experience. Enjoyed seeing the city. ๐ฅฐ
I stayed in Girona a couple of days in my three months Europe trip in 2016 before I went to Andorra. Really calm and nice city with a nice old town and I remember the city walls that I walked on. Haven't seen this video yet.
Haha, so familiar issues with the practicals of travelling. Sometimes there can be a long day of various hassles. Other days everything goes smooth. This is what I love about traveling.
How does a traveller not have a portable charger? I always carry one that lets me charge my phone about 2-3 times.
Gabriel Girona is a top spot well worth the visit got flights ยฃ9 rtn last Jan rtn so had to do it great wee square accommodation was alot cheaper in January have found cheap flights for this month but accommodation just to expensive
Are you visiting the atlantic cost of spain like bilbao or santander? It looks very different to the mediterranian cost with more rough waves. From there it is easy to santiago de compostella or the french atlantic coast and the gascogne before this regions are run over by parisians on their summer holiday.
I am walking the GR11 and it is beautiful.
I've been watching your videos for quite a while now, almost ten years! Keep up your journeys filled with safety, Gabe!
Hi Gabriel, your pronunciation of Ibiza sounds correct because in Spanish the letter i sounds like an e in English this is why it can be confusing to learn a new language because certain letters don't sound the same in another language. You're close to the Basque Country autonomous community an area that is part of Spain but has its own language and culture and has fought with the Spanish government for independence from Spain.
Remember to keep your tap cards inrfid sleeves. People can read them at four feet and scam you
Get a schwab stock account and bank account and they refund all ATM fees, best deal out there
Gabe, you need to get a Schwab account. They refund all ATM fees. Also, great brewery just outside Girona called Dos Kiwis!
Hey Gabriel! I've been watching your videos for a while now and they're always interesting and informative. The audio and video quality is also stellar! What kind of camera do you use? Wishing you all the best and a great day.
Bro in Sardinia atm fees are like 14% it's stupid. If you do come bring cash.
Woww another Great Video tour there in Beautiful ๐ City id Girona Spain sir Gabe, a blessed good day, good vibrant City, Clean and Very walking Tour, thank you so much sir Gabe for your wonderful walk around tour video stay safe Godbless Gracias, !! From the Philippines ๐ต๐ญ sir Marvin ๐๐๐๐๐โฅ๏ธ๐๐๐
7 Euros ATM fees ! What a rip off !
Lesson learned: When the Universe gives you an ATM on arrival, USE IT.
Yeah thats the thing about Europe. The old towns are cute, but you go out a little more, its not as good. Same in the US of course. But travelers always get dazzled by tourist sites and forget about real life.
Why did Gabe just randomly start pronouncing Girona wrong mid-video?! ๐
