In this video I set up camp on two different beaches, waking up to the sound of waves and stunning sunrises. I fly my drone to capture breathtaking aerial views of the beaches and landscapes, giving you a bird’s-eye view of this incredible journey. From getting lost on narrow roads to being unexpectedly sprayed with paint, this trip was full of surprises!
I meet a fellow cyclist and share part of the journey with him, exchanging stories and enjoying the camaraderie of the road. My journey culminates at the breathtaking Balcony of Europe, offering stunning views and a sense of accomplishment.

for good morning last night after the shower started raining a bit and I was not ready as yet with my tent I was not ready as yet to know where I’m going to really sleep that’s when I started uh getting a bit worried because I had absolutely no shelter but luckily the rain stopped after like 3 or 4 minutes and I took my bike and pushed it all the way here you can still see the tires and that’s where I spent my night very nice place today I’m not going to push like crazy like yesterday yesterday I pushed again like 130 kilm but I would say yesterday was uh pretty hard because of the ups and downs and um yeah was something else for sure yeah get ready now to start the day easy easy I am ready to go now ready to rock the road was a quiet night I slept right there on the beach Behind These bushes here in front I had time to pack my stuff eat relax it’s now 12 :00 it’s pretty late cuz I usually have like 30ks uh in my bag or even 40 at this moment in in the daytime anyway Let’s Ride [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] one [Music] this is what I really wanted to see I dreamed of seeing this don’t ask me why I just know that it’s very close to my destination and I could have flown a lot yeah with a parag glider there Malaga let’s go can anyone of you guys explain to me what they do there what sort of cultivation is this is this I don’t know fish [Music] [Music] oh my gosh look at me how I’m looking like these guys were painting their walls from inside and exactly as I passed through oh my gosh they sprayed paint all over I hope that this is going easily away I’m looking as if 10 pigeons shot on me now I really have to take a shower now wow the way he sprayed everything how did he even manage that unbelievable I have take everything off of me everything and wash everything that’s going to take at least 1 hour of my day so I can forget my 100 km today just look at this it’s everything full of freaking paint at least it’s this washable paint that you paint on the walls I’m trying to go to the beach and see if I find any showers so I find funny how they have golf courses here next to this big hotel in this city I don’t know it name as yet and Green Meadows like here in the city I mean yes it’s looking very very pretty but they have to grow their crops on desert soil okay thank God I found some showers okay I hope they also work let’s find out perfect now I’m going to wash everything what I have and myself too and the clothes and Jesus Christ that’s going to take a while now I just finished having my break in the park now and um I didn’t fly the Drone from here because because I think it’s even a better spot when I am in between these green houses to take off to show you the vastness I am now finally in the fields finally there where the concentration of these green houses is absolutely insane so I am going in a bit to take off with a drone and show you the vastness of this area so I’m going to show you right now in a bit in one of these green houses this is what it is right so if you are living in Germany or especially West Europe or not necessarily just the West Europe but in general in Europe most likely some of the vegetables that you are eating maybe cucumbers or zucchini or tomatoes or whatever you name it might be from this green houses here this area here on the Southeast coast of of Spain is known to provide with a lot of vegetables the entire Europe or parts of Europe like I said before let’s have a better look shall we oh before I forget one of the small villages around here is called Laura that’s a very interesting name for a village I would say so uh yeah let’s see lava [Music] that was that pretty neat right now I am going to my place to sleep for tonight which is of course again the beach it’s not very far away from here just 5 km I hope it’s going to be quiet I hope I will be able to find a small little spot let’s see what I can find tonight just the way I have imagined it yeah there are still people now now here of course but I hope and I think that people are going to leave in a couple of hours so let’s uh go on the prominade and check the sides oh [Music] w [Music] good morning guys I’ve spent a very quiet night here I still had shadow in the morning so that was really nice you know to not have to rush rush rush nonetheless I woke up early flew the Drone around and now I am about to take off again to start riding again to n n is exactly 100 kilm away from here that’s where I’m going to push today too the reason why I don’t want to go even further is because I found a very nice place in n and from there is not so far anymore tomorrow to reach Malaga because I want to spend some time in Malaga see the properly and uh then head down further south I’m not that far anymore from tarfa I would say um so yeah let’s kick in the gears [Music] [Music] okay guys I really want to show you something because maybe you might think I’m exaggerating right when I see that the GPS is really stupid so I have my route set on bicycle Road right this is where the GPS sent me and this is the bicycle Road where it sent me look at this and there is the road there is the street there is the normal street on which you can actually ride with no problems it’s looking like a freaking slum Jesus chice wow I really have to see how I’m coming out here just look where it sent me the street is right here right here is the street right here okay let’s see how I’m even coming out here I guess it’s here I don’t know I hope I just need a freaking Road you know that’s all I could easily get jumped here if somebody would want that I would be game you can puncture a tire you can do all sorts of things here thank God I am back on the freaking track anyway now I am on the track again 20 km next supermarket [Music] he [Music] a a [Music] I’m in this park here in the city called uh Motril I’m still 40 km away from uh my destination one of the more beautiful places that I have stopped the last couple of days very green very clean I freaking love this life riding eating riding sleeping and some other couple of things in between I had my break and I chilled there in the park I ate I drank the same daily routine that I have but it’s a health daily routine riding eating sleeping repeating I just want to show you this beautiful view behind me W it’s looking really really awesome I still have 30 km to my destination today and hopefully I find a shower there and the nice place to sleep that would be nice I am now maybe 20 kilm away from my destination and I met a nice guy Jacob hello from the UK on the road and uh he happens to as well travel the same city where I am going to we are now climbing a hill it has been the entire day for me up and down up and down but yeah he has a different bike than I do he much easier sort of sort of yeah well I also weigh a lot yeah it’s true I weigh a lot too you know 82 kg here 80 82 yeah 82 okay I’m 76 maybe 90 okay 82 last time I checked oh my gosh you can kind of see already the sweat dripping from my forehead on my nose down into my chin still have to push but the reward is really sweet once we are up there Jacob is so much faster than me without even battling wow I’m again going uphill again uphill oh oh my God this is Hell another 15 km and that’s it for today but look at that curve there it’s again going up I think we have to reach the peak of the mountain and then and then it goes again downhill still on the road with Jacob 5Ks away from the city and we’re going strong I am again alone Jacob is not anymore with me he left we rode 30 km yeah it was fun riding with you man yeah I stop now at a supermarket [Music] I finally arrived at my destination today first I want to enjoy my ice cream here this place is called balcony of Europe it’s a basically it’s an observation deck you have like a 240° uh view over the over the ocean I have eaten my ice cream and now I want to find out I think I found a way here how to go to this beach down here I want to go at the Rocks there go jump in the water a bit and and uh see what I can do later in terms of camping but uh yeah this is uh the balcony of Europe I have to keep on going here and then downstairs here all the way down till I reach the beach let’s do it pushing the bike here down the stairs just a couple of more stairs and I am at the beach that’s how we do it step by step and that’s it that’s it I finally arrived at the beach this is exactly where I wanted to be for tonight I came downstairs from up there like this like this like this with the bicycle so tomorrow is going to be fun to bring it back up there are the showers there are toilets now I’m going to jump in the water shower and uh just let time pass by and let’s see if I’m going to pitch up the tent or not I don’t know this would be a good place but uh I don’t know if people come here or not yeah but it looks pretty cool so this house here I saw in Google Maps uh Dawn something something is called this place but no one lives inside it’s just uh I think left it’s a remnance of what once has been I think somebody lived here before indeed wow okay going to jump
