Why do you go to these thief scum countries like Egypt etc, nothing good there ..
Too bad you couldn't have just given the driver one of your Canadian bills. At least you made it. Cheers and happy trails.
Thanks for "Watch it Glow" love it. Cheers Gabriel safe travels.
Sorry to hear about your bad taxi ride experience Gabriel. After totally taking advantage of you, the taxi driver tried to pretend he's a nice guy by offering you a free Sprite which probably costs him 50 cents US. I hope you gave him a bad Uber review because he really deserved it!
You mentioned that your back charges you an ATM fee for using other bank's ATMs. Are you aware that if you open a checking account with Charles Schwab Bank, they do not charge an ATM fee, and they will also reimburse you for the ATM fee charged by the ATM which you are using? They do not charge a monthly fee and there is no minimum balance that you are required to keep.
18:15 Would you ever shop at a store called "HELL"? WTF???
My friend paid for a camel ride in Egypt. He paid to get on the camel, THEN they wanted more money to get off the camel. He jumped off for free.
Have you been to Corsica? Sardinia?
1:27 CYPRUS LICENSE PLATE
Destination Cyprus?
go charles schwab bank with unlimited atm fee refund worldwide
What a terrible scam you endured on the way to the airport. I've heard nothing but bad stories about travels to Egypt. I have no interest in ever stepping foot in that country. Morocco falls in the same bucket.
26:46
I'll be there next week
It looks stuck in the 90s I love it

Welcome to Cyprus
Sorry we desperately needed rain here in Cyprus. If you hung around a little longer we will have great weather. So much to do and see here in Cyprus. Great beaches in Protaras. Many pretty villages. Have you been to Lefkara? Great culture. There is everything if you know where to look .
You were at Finikoudes
Thanks for the travel tale. Maybe the $25 taxi ride would have ended up costing $50 after extra demands. Who knows.
I am playing a game with myself, just so we know im not just saying it. I am 1 minute 49 into the video and I believe he is in Larnaca, Cypress. I guess I will find out towards the end of the video if I have guessed correctly.
good video as usual gabe..but nature and the wilderness misses you..come back..
Egypt is only for Indiana Jones
I experienced worse in Jamaica was not an official taxi, he threatened me in the night told me to go to the atm and give him 100$ I finally told him to get 20$ or I will go out of his car, ended paying 20$
Maybe its just me, but I dont think that story needed a whole video for itself. Dont worry, Im not trying to be rude and say he shouldnt do it, sometimes just a bit of gap filler chat can be relaxing, its all good, keep doing what you do.
Just, for me, I was intently waiting for some big interesting reveal, some crazy moment happened. But no, it was pretty much just a taxi ride in a foreign land.
Probably could have just been a "the taxi ride was a bit sus. Should have taken the regular taxi that the hotel were supplying for $15, but because I was trying to save money I ended up spending $40. And then he kept making stops. I just wanted to get to the airport."
A full video seems a bit over kill for this story, in my opinion only.
Anyway, all good. I watched and listened to it all. So theres obviously nothing wrong with it.

never agree to anything outside the platform, whether it is Uber, Airbnb, Hotels, Booking or whatever. The moment he wanted to transact outside the platform you should've just hit cancel and there is a reason in Uber that the driver is asking you for money as the reason. Then you could've asked your hotel to get you a cab. I have had some similar shady experiences when using Uber in Kenya.
Kind of absurd withholding where you are until end of video as a mere stroke of a finger brings a viewer to the end of the video…
Come on….we all know where you're going!😂
The food is outrageously good in Greece🍔🍗🍟🌭
