So... I also have a couple of camping or full-on hiking trips planned you can join?! (with Covid policies/insurance around them all) 12 spots on Tour Du Mont Blanc: www.vagabond-trails.com/tourdumontblanc-with-elina-osborne-2022 15 spots in Ecuador: www.vagabond-trails.com/ecuador-with-elina-osborne-2022 2 places left for Alaska!: trovatrip.com/trips/united-states-with-elina-osborne-jun-2022

Your narration is like listening to jazz. The constantly changing tempo makes me fall in love with the story. Well done you are incredible. It’s like syncopated rhythm in story telling.

Oh you're right! I didn't realise why I enjoyed this so much, but this is certainly it 😊

You do a fantastic job with your videos. They are always original with just the right amount of scene time changes, music, dialogue and facial expressions. I always look forward to your videos and highly anticipate the drop of your TA adventure in whatever format you decided to edit and distribute it. I’m sure we will be mesmerized and entertained. Happy trails.

it will be exciting to see you do a vlog with all your brothers going hiking or camping together. To see you guys bond as siblings is heartwarming

You never fails to upload the videos we need most right when we need them. Thank you so much for sharing this video but also all others. The way you edit your video amaze me and inspire me. Thank you again!

Loved this! Love to see you being sponsored by all these brands too 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 cannot wait for your thru hike videos to come out! Much love from New York City!

A video on my favourite topic: food! Thanks so much for sharing your tips. These videos are always a pleasure to watch - expertly edited, informative and hilarious. :)

I love the bangs !! More recipes and dining options please !! Brothers make the perfect test subjects since you can use them multiple times before you have to “do away” with them. I would love to see you and your Mum in a competitive cook off using the brothers as test subjects with lots of Japanese language sarcasm. Thank you for these little, staccato humoured vignettes. More Peanut Butter !! And a bit of Irish double cream once in a while be good for what ails you !!🦋

Gooood evening from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great night!

Your last recipe (the japanese curry with couscous) is my favourite dish when I'm hiking. This looks amazing aswell. Thank you!

How adorable was the siblings rating. 😊 Also, love to see how your editing has progressed! 👏

Love your videos. Very fun to watch. Cheers!

You keep getting better on every video, we love to see your job! 🙌

Really sweet to see you with your brothers. I’ll have to try this recipe. It’s going to take a minute to track down all the ingredients, but it looks yummy.

That looks SO good...on or off the trail!

Love the recipe and ideas, thanks! One thing I struggle with about cold soaking (even though keen on the idea) is the cleanup/sterilising of the plastic container. I'm not a big fan of plastic to start with but would think you would need to carry detergent and extra water to clean as a minimum? I struggle to get plastic clean with cold water. With a stove there is boiling and hot water involved that I would think would remove residual grease and sterilise better. Most of the time I opt for freeze dried meals (just add water) so I don't have to mess with cleaning bowls/containers at all. But do like the idea of making up healthy meals on the go.

I'm a haafu hiker with two brothers, and this video brings me so much joy.

how is it that i feel relaxed watching a cooking video? great job.

Ayyy another ninety percenter! 😂 Thanks for the recipe (and the laughs). I'll give this one a go on Thorsborne in a few weeks

Love this content! As someone who’s constantly trying to eat more vego/vegan options, I totally would love more recipes (hiking or non-hiking) ideas! Coming from the states we had a toooon of options but in New Zealand I’m still finding my way 😅 haha

Thanks for posting this, i found the ingredients locally and made the hot version, , it is really good, on trail it will be even better.

And love the bangs! And love the Osborne personal joke hahaha

.... Don't sell yourself short, Elina ... your videos' are awesome !! The content ,,the soundtrack along with the chosen few are so gripping ,, love your style ..

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing

I’m gonna have to use this recipe! Looks great to cook even at home 🤙

Your videos have inspired me to start hiking my state of Colorado! I wish I would have started way long ago. Thank you for your content! It’s amazing!

Been pretty strict vegan for 5 years now and if theres anything I learned its that "gatekeeping" in the vegan community is unfortunately very widespread. Im so happy to see this vid and see how much you clearly care about the animals and the planet (and backpacking ;). Sometimes labels help us to find ourselves and our people, but often they end up closing off connections too. Everything we do in this life impacts another, making steps forward with love as your centerpoint means youre always doing the right thing :)

Love your Japanese curry recipe from one of your previous video!

YES to the bangs

Haha love the reactions!

Ooh cool fringe!

Hey your recipes are great, seriously post more 🤟

Fun times!

Heat probably releases more flavor and nutrients. The “heated by the sun” comment on the cold soak is right on. Also that SeaToSummit spoon is the spoon to rule all other spoons. Expensive but worth it.

Personally I thought the wooden spoons Elina and her brothers were using were way better.

I really loved this video! but my one question would be: are you concerned at all about bpa chemicals from the telanti plastic? I wonder why not opt for something stainless steel?

I went on many hikes in my live, but I never had to pack more than one main dish and snacks- there aren't that many outbacks in the alpine region anymore ;). Beeing 115kg/2.00m I feel like the water and food supply issue is going to be a tricky one, should I ever try a through hike.

you eat better on a thru hike than i do living with a fridge and a stove...

Potentially, if it was a bit warmer and I was more time-constrained. On Te Araroa I took the pace a bit more chill so had plenty of time and energy to cook.

Bless ya, Mark. Ingredients: Dehy Rice, Dehy Peas, Textured Veggie Protein, Shiitake, Wakame, Shiitake Stock, sesame oil, furikake, nori, spring onion. I didn't really measure, you'll have a fair idea when you make it and see the foods absorbing the water. I think a LOT of the ingredients are interchangeable, but if you want to get the same flavours: the wakame, shiitake, shiitake stock and sesame oil are paramount.

Looks delicious :) I was wondering if you could technically boil water on the wood stoves that are provided in the huts on the south island on the TA? I would be using a Vargo-Bot mainly for coldsoaking, but a hot meal now and then would be awesome :)
