The night part of the journey. Hard to capture it on camera, but the atmosphere while surfing that train was amazing. The thick fog surrounded the wagons while leaving just enough visibility above to see thousands of stars shining down on us while silhouettes of mountains huge mountains loomed in...

This surf was a dream-like experience. Warm weather, amazing views and calm surroundings. Of course it wasn't stress-free and definitely had it's challenges. The train schedules were unpredictable, the constant hide 'n' seek with the workers and the cold nights kept us on guard, but, still, this ...

Little something while I'm editing a bigger thing. Next video will probably the same style, but the one after that should be a journey. Thought these hotel's would be interesting enough to share as when we stumbled on them they left us pleasantly surprised.
Will try to upload more often.
Time to go back underground. I knew about this bunker for quite a while, but never seemed to find the way in. With the help of my friends from Latvia, who helped me sneak in - I finally got to experience it. Apart from the main hall and the "poster room" being filled with random vehicles and junk...

Since youtube removed the previous part - this is the re-upload. It is paired with part 4 as to create a new video. Hopefully this will not be recognized as a re-upload of a striked video and will not be flagged by random people again. If it happens, I will upload the full journe...

The more relaxed part of the journey. Felt euphoric after the previous day's surf.
Regarding the scares uploads this and previous month - I am traveling every other week to film as I wa...

The big surf. Took about 20h+ in total and I filmed something every hour of it. Even though it sounds monotonous, a lot of different events occurred on that train during that time. It definitely wasn't a calm experience, but we enjoyed it!
Again, will try to upload part 3 next weekend, but,...

Biggest journey I've done so far. The start was big too. Before we even got on the train, we had to figure out how and where to live while waiting for the train to come. Multiple failed attempts got our motivation down, but we were stubborn and had no plans of giving up.
This should be a f...
I'm still in the process of solving my personal problems, but, with more spare time, I have started traveling. It is difficult during this time and I am taking precautions to keep safe. I have journeys planned and will try to get back to uploading in a month.
Thank you to all new a...
This video was supposed to be released last week, but due to some personal problems (nothing I can't handle) the editing was delayed. Regarding next week - since most countries I'm surrounded by have their borders closed, I am forced to explore the country I'm stuck in which does not have many in...

Since there was a lot going on in this video and it wasn't a journey, I didn't know how to title it interestingly, so I did the basic of picking one interesting event and highlighting it to represent the video. Hope you enjoy the towers and rooftops along with bunkers!
I am still not able t...

This was a weird mission. Fun though. Added some extra footage at the end from the following evening as I felt it fit the vibe. Hope you enjoy! New video either next week or week after. Complicated plans going on right now so not sure bout the schedule.

I am back after an unexpectedly long work-break. I took the time to record/edit a new adventure to finish my album, finish filming/editing music video for "distance" and prepare couple more video for next week. Regarding this video - it didn't turn out quite the way I anticipated, but in the end,...

This one like a throwback video, but with a twist. With my previous documentation of this place getting so much attention, guards have been on stand by for new trespassers. Was fun to find an alternate way in and explore.
I am also contemplating taking a week off as I am working on a ...

Hi all the new people! Numbers growing faster than I could've hoped for and I feel very appreciative of all of you!

As a celebration of 600 patreons here is a new Chernobyl journey. This one was quite intense and more difficult than the previous one. As with the previous one, there will be up to 5 parts and each will show unique events from the trip. Many more exciting situations coming your way! in other word...

I make this post now as I was not able to make it when the video was uploaded. As some of you may know - I was filming my next journey and finished not long after this video was shared.

Back to the basics with this one - crawling around the soviet underground mazes. New video next week will be on schedule too! After that - will try to bring you another journey.
Content should be coming steady. Thanks for the support!

With this harsh and exciting journey over, I am ready for new adventures! As "tv-commercial" as that sounded, it's true - I have already filmed a couple videos in quite interesting places that should hold you over enough in the following weeks until I pick the right place to film my next journey....

As some of you may have guessed - this video was posted today as it has been a week since the strike and I am free to upload until the next one.
I have re-purposed the "shieyLIVE" (new name "shieyfreedom") channel into my backup/second channel, in case my main channel gets randomly deleted ...

My channel violates youtube's arbitrary guidelines. Some random videos have already been taken down. If I start getting strikes and will be prevented from uploading I will share my videos (uploaded from another channel) here. Patreon so far is my most stable source of income so it makes sense to ...

The final part of this Chernobyl journey.
Journeys, in general, are not over. I have been planning something the past weeks, don' t have time to do it yet, but another journey is definitely in the works. Also, I am loosely planning another visit to the exclusion zone, this time checking out...

A bit of a late post, as I keep forgetting to make these. Part 2 will be coming out on the 30th, as the sponsor I'm working with for that video, want's it before Oct. 1st. After that, I will take a break for a week or so and the remaining parts will come when I'm back.
