Unfortunately the castle is closed
already so I don't know if I just I think I go there tomorrow uh when I when I wake up because now I have to find a camping spot and uh put up my tent and prepare everything for dark and especially while I want to go before the dark is to see the camping spot and to feel it that's very important for me when I go out wild camping like this in the dark I don't see if there are there some obstacles or if there are baboons hanging out there now you know in the daylight to see everything clearly and you yeah you can make a judgement, it's safe so I do that first uh I go to the castle tomorrow in my ears why is he screaming oh my God what's Happening Here is it burning or what Oh I thought it was an explosion I guess it could have been an explosion but how the police screen when he was pointing I thought something was burning and blowing up yep so we are dropping a lot from uh on the top where were with the guys motorcycle guys it was 2,500 meters and now we are at 1250 meters oh yeah this is the spot oh hold my hores this was like 10 of 10 points oh how do I get here on or okay hey okay can I seriously can I park here oh my god okay no baboons just me okay I can do that great [Music] yep we nailed this view I going say wow down there you have one of the villages and there's another one there another one there and I have the mountains and some kind of I don't know what this is and mountains so I'm pretty sure I'm going to pitch my tent around here a park stic like this so no car can come inside it happened to me once I parked like this and um I get my tent here and suddenly a car came and I thought it was running over me with a car so since then I learned a lesson to try to block the way as much as you can or try to put your tent somewhere else where it can't go in the way for the cars but it's a dead end so but still you never know people can come in night I want to see the stars or anything start gazing and you come here so and we will sleep very very well I'm sure it's not going to come a storm which I don't believe it's a little bit of wind a breeze as well which is great over there so another one place you can go but it's no wind there so I made a judgment that this would be the spot a little bit of wings so I can open the tent and of course the view thank you so much for joining my adventure from Sweden to Nepal like share comment subscribe and join my patreon family well there's more behind the scene exclusive material there take care and I see you soon
