// F A Q
// What did you take with you and how do I hike this trail?
A gear list and 'things you should know before hiking the POTB and Skye Trail' is coming up, give me some time! :)

// How did you film/edit this video?
I filmed this video on a Sony A6400 with a Røde microphone and used Premiere Pro and Garageband for editing.

// Why do you hike solo?
I made a video about this subject because I get this question often!

// Do you have other hiking plans coming up?
Right now I don't have any hikes planned, but if life allows it, I'll be back on trail next summer!

// Where can I contact you for business inquiries?

Girls and guys and theys! Just want to give a quick (but thorough) shoutout to the makers of the music used in this video: Bandler Ching, UMM, Mahina and Rosa Butsi. I’m very proud to be able to call them my friends and I would absolutely love it if you would check them out if you loved them in this video. They deserve every bit of recognition they can get. Enjoy!! See you on the next hike xxx

The quality of this video is insanely well done. There are too many silent hiking videos, and it's just so awesome to see your amazing character shine. Well done! Hopefully, you can do the Highlands in fall (much better, less flies, fewer people, and beautiful brown-ish landscapes with snowy peaks).

Another fantastic video, Floor! Your filming is excellent, and as usual your choice of music too - such good vibes! I'm already looking forward to your next adventure!

Hello Floor, this is Nadine's brother! Thank you for being so nice to my sister and making her coffee! She enjoyed the break and the whole trip! Keep hiking ;)

[jonstacchio]

That brightened up my day no end, Floor! Amazing scenery, but I think you must have walked an extra 50kms setting up your camera for all those shots. Look forward to seeing your next adventure.

Ha Floor, wow impressive om zoveel KM te hiken hier, ik vond de Peaks of the Balkans, 75KM in 5 dagen tijdens een hittegolf (lees 40+ graden celcius) al intens, maar een zeer verslavende ervaring! Cool te zien dat jij net na de sneeuwperiode bent gegaan. Ik heb je account net ontdekt en je inspireert mij om mijn leven om te gaan gooien en nog meer hikes te maken. Cheers, Carly

To anyone hiking with a Garmin Inreach on your shoulder strap: turns out they are only water resistant- not waterproof. Look up Taylor the Nahamsha hiker and her inreach failing on the AT recently. Might be worth at least keeping it in a shoulder strap pocket or something, where it gets damp at most, not soaked :) Thank you for an awesome video as always, Floor!

Peaks of the Balkans trek as a consolation! The weather could have been less cruel for you, but what trek. Well done again Floor.

Great Video as always. I admire how you always manage to show all these emotion that you go through during a long distance hike. Having this Trail on my list for a while now and probably gonna do it in September and thanks to your Video the motivation went up again =) All the best Floor!

Another Nice video, always like to see them. Great landscapes and your funny Sense of humor. Looking forward the Next. Have fun and enjoy.

Since I subscribed to your channel Floor, I've been entertained so much by the fun you project in your stories. I love everything about the positivity you project. Your photography gives a vivid display and a real insite of the country you are travelling through. Sorry for all this mush, but you are the best travel vologger, and so much fun to follow. There, that's all.

Thank you so much for all oats, chocolate bars and ready meals! We really needed those calories later on. It was a pleasure to meet you on top of the Albania mountains! - Ciaran (one of the seven)
