We're in the bus going to Arequipa, where we have some adventures starting tomorrow.
This is my friend Aurelie. She found the bed.
We just spent 10 hours in the bus. The next step is getting a taxi.
We'll see.
And croissants.
And croissants and coffee.
Thank you.
A good dude just picked us up and he's bringing us to the trailhead.
And tonight he's probably saving us like two hours of hiking.
Ciao.
This is the beginning of the hike.
Break number two.
We're two hours up and we just got 600 meters and we have 600 meters more.
It's getting hard to breathe but legs are doing good.
Last push.
We're probably higher than we've both ever been.
You can feel it.
Thumbs are getting chilly. It's nice.
Each step it's getting harder.
It is 4.36 and we are in bed.
But we have to wake up at 3 a.m. at least.
Shadow of the volcano.
We've been hiking for four hours and it's getting hard.
We need to take rest every 30 minutes, 15 minutes.
We're getting closer and it's getting harder.
We are in Puno.
It's in the Chichicaca lake and we're going in a totally different adventure.
We're gonna sleep tonight in an island called Uros.
On to the next island.
Next vlog is vlog 15.
Do you think we should do something special?
We'll try to maybe answer some questions.
So in vlog 49 we asked you if you had some special questions for vlog 50
but we were not able to answer them in vlog 50.
So here we are, vlog 51.
We're gonna throw all your questions on YouTube.
Polo asks what is the, behind the cameras, secret to be a beast like you guys?
I mean what is your training regimen when you're not climbing?
We don't really have a training regimen right now
because it's really hard to train while you're traveling.
The training is just hiking and climbing and that's really it.
Like there's no training.
Sometimes we go on a hangboard like when we can't climb a bunch.
We'll go to the gyms when we do clinics.
Can you show how do you attach the GoPro camera to the power bolts
in order to record those sport climbing scenes?
We have two options.
Option one, you take a quick draw and the GoPro.
Remove a beaner, put the screw through it and that's it.
Option two, if you're willing to carry that thing.
But we take the webbing and then we attach to a hanger, an anchor.
William has a long text for us.
William, all your answers are in the climbing daily.
That's coming up soon.
We're not sure exactly when but pretty much all your questions will be answered in that.
Can you talk about the costs of this round, the world trip and how it's manageable, etc?
Our trip is special in a way that we have a lot of luggage and gears.
So far we've managed it through savings and sponsors and little jobs here and there.
It would be really interesting what kind of gear you're using.
Sleeping pads, sleeping bags and a tent.
We carry Jetboil and light cookware.
The camera gear, 5D Mark IV, 6D, a drone.
Gimbal, shotgun mic, big tripod, small tripod, hard drives.
William and Moritz are asking about magic trick so I'll let Josh do it.
I'm gonna disappear right now.
Toby would love to see some highlight uncut ascents from your trip so far.
Definitely really hard to get uncut send footage on a route.
If we are going to film a boulder problem, we'll film the second half of it
and then you'll get those emotions and that excitement as you top out.
Ellie Stare, how quickly can you eat a celebratory chocolate cake?
I'll keep it in mind and next time we cross a big celebratory chocolate cake,
we'll show you how quickly you can eat it for you.
Everybody that commented on vlog 49 for those questions,
thank you and thank you for the good words.
If you have comments or questions, don't hesitate in the future vlogs.
