James began recording his journeys to share all his experiences with his father once he got home. In his father's honour and of the beautiful moments they spent together video-travelling across the globe, is this inspiring video of Bulgaria: nine days, 4 friends and plenty of adventure.
Do read James' beautiful words below. ↓
[Music: Rationale - Prodigal Son]
The biggest reason I made these videos is so I could share my world with my Dad and to take him places he could never go.
After every trip I’d call my Dad up and excitedly tell him every detail. I’d tell him to load my video and turn the volume up. I’d click play on my computer at the same time as him so we could be watching together. I’d imagine his expressions as I heard his comments while we both watched the video.I’m still imagining his expressions, but this time I’m imagining what he’d be saying too. This will be the first video I can’t watch with him. I desperately miss my best friend.
So this video is dedicated to my Dad. He lived far more with the little he had, than most do with their whole lifetime.
This Balkan nation by the Black Sea strikes visitors with its natural richness, white-powder beaches and deep culture. At the gateway between European and Asian culture, Bulgaria is still somehow under the radar… but not for long. Nightlife, friendly locals, incredible history, a haven of archaeological sites, ethnically diverse, affordable, and offering great hiking opportunities – what else could a traveller-explorer ask for?
