1
This is me in my final continent after traveling around the whole world with no money.
2
And this is the story of how I got here.
3
See, I started my journey by getting a free private jet into Europe,
4
where I then crossed over into Africa and proceeded to get a tuk -tuk across Asia, which was then followed by a great time in Australasia,
5
but we somehow managed to get to the landmark of Antarctica with no money, remember?
6
And after that, we then headed to South America, where we experienced the high heights of Rio de Janeiro.
7
And with six of the seven continents now ticked off, that only left our final one.
8
North America.
9
28 days in.
10
No money spent.
11
One final push.
12
Everything has built up to this moment.
13
We are about to step foot in our seventh continent.
14
Seven out of seven.
15
About to step foot in Canada.
16
We're now in North America, our seventh continent.
17
And now the challenge is moving through North America without spending any money.
18
I believe it can be done.
19
I have a plan and here's how it's going to work.
20
Back on day one of this tour, we took off from the airport in London at 1pm local time.
21
And that officially started the 30 -day timer for this world tour.
22
So now here in Canada, we have 45 hours until that timer is up.
23
The final flight that we could catch to get us back in time takes off in 36 hours from New York, USA.
24
But to make it first, we needed to get into the city of Toronto As there,
25
we'll attempt to hitch a ride all the way to Times Square in New York Therefore, crossing into another country
26
And for one final time, we'll be completing our set of challenges along the way
27
And once completed, we'd be able to redeem our continental flight ticket
28
To get back to where we started
29
The UK Around the world in 30 days
30
Sounds great, and I believe we're gonna make it happen
31
But we've gotta move fast
32
Luckily we've been given a lot of advice on how to speak to people from Toronto so my good friend is seeing.
33
One thing you need to learn when you go to Toronto is to say, Nyaai!
34
Yo what are you saying Kroski?
35
Yo what are you saying Krody?
36
Nyaai!
37
What's up my Kroski?
38
How you doing Krody?
39
Nyaai!
40
Nyaai!
41
What's up Kroski?
42
Could you take me into Toronto City Brody?
43
Yeah bro you should do.
44
Are you guys going into Toronto City?
45
I don't know exactly where in Toronto.
46
I have to find out my hotel address.
47
Here's her word.
48
Could we give you a minute to find that out?
49
And then is that?
50
And then when you catch the ride, it's with you.
51
Is that all right?
52
Yeah, I'm fine with it.
53
Oh my gosh, thank you.
54
We are hoping surely.
55
It's a work trip.
56
It has to be away into Toronto.
57
Where you're on, coming to is the Maple Leaf Square area.
58
Yeah, yeah, downtown Toronto.
59
That's perfect.
60
OK.
61
Yeah?
62
You guys are welcome to catch the Uber with me.
63
Thank you so much.
64
We hopped into Chloe's Uber, and we were on the way to Toronto.
65
And from there, our morning just kept on getting better.
66
Have you had anything to get today?
67
Um, not too much.
68
Well, I have some snacks in my bag that you're welcome to have if you'd like.
69
You are.
70
You're the best.
71
Not to interrupt, but...
72
I love Canada!
73
Our time in Canada was off to a great start, and we'd arrived in Toronto City sooner than expected.
74
Thank you so much.
75
No problem.
76
If you do not understand, we probably would have been there all day.
77
Thank you.
78
Thank you.
79
Pleasure to meet you, Chloe.
80
And just like that, we'd arrived in Toronto.
81
We still had a long way to go.
82
We started fresh, happy, with a new lease of life, ready to take on the world.
83
And now I'm old, knackered.
84
I've got tired air forces on, zip with my right pockets broken, and I just want to go home.
85
But I will be going home, because we will be completing this challenge.
86
We will be doing it in style, and it will be done in 30 days.
87
Now we just have to find a friend here in Toronto.
88
Excuse me, Crody.
89
What's up, Crody?
90
What's up, Crody?
91
I'm...
92
Crose E!
93
He hated me.
94
Okay, I'm not doing that anymore.
95
You seem to lie to me.
96
We started our search for a friend who could drive us through Niagara Falls and across the continent.
97
The city of Toronto is home to 3 million people, so we were bound to find someone.
98
But touring the cold streets took its toll.
99
With temperatures as low as minus 10 degrees Celsius at this time of year, we were not wrapped up nearly enough.
100
What are the chances me and you go to Niagara Falls right now?
101
No chance at all.
102
We hop in the car, quick road trip.
103
No, please.
104
No. Please.
105
No. Hey, how are you?
106
No, no, no, no, no, no. You okay?
107
Yes, yes, thank you very much.
108
Thank you.
109
Can't even have a breakdown in peace.
110
The stereotype of Canadians being friendly was definitely accurate.
111
This man kindly gave me a free lunch, but still no one could make time for a road trip on a Wednesday.
112
No stress, no stress, no stress.
113
I tried my best.
114
Thank you, bro.
115
Hello, everyone!
116
Let's go, dream team.
117
We have walked through Toronto.
118
We have not found a friend.
119
I feel like everyone's very nice here, but maybe I'm expecting them to be too nice.
120
We headed to the center of Toronto.
121
Oh, wow, up there, it's shade, dad.
122
Damn, they look tasty.
123
The centre was buzzing with life.
124
Let's go, yes.
125
With friendly Canadians everywhere.
126
Now we're friends forever.
127
Surely I was bound to find someone who could help me out.
128
You need a good road trip.
129
I'm good, thank you.
130
Me and you, Niagara Fools.
131
I'm good.
132
I'm Nico.
133
I'm good.
134
Your name is good.
135
I'm not interested, thanks.
136
Your name's not interested?
137
No, I'm good.
138
Your name's good then?
139
Yeah.
140
Well, I'm Nico and we should go on a road trip together to Niagara Fools.
141
Oh gosh, we're gonna be in Canada my whole life.
142
I was beginning to get desperate.
143
Does nobody wanna go on a road trip?
144
I just want a friend.
145
I just need a friend.
146
But I couldn't wallow in my sadness for much longer because I seriously needed to find someone.
147
The sun was setting over Toronto for the night
148
and there was a mid 38 hours left until our 30 days was up.
149
The pressure was on and our final flight from New York was leaving in only 29 hours
150
and that was still around 500 miles away.
151
This whole 30 -day world tour could amount to nothing if someone isn't found soon.
152
Hi guys, nice to meet you, I'm Nico.
153
Sorry.
154
All good?
155
Sometimes I think I'm a ghost.
156
People see right through me.
157
Guys, can we be friends please?
158
No. No one paid me any attention but then I ran into someone that may have known of my existence.
159
Will you be my friend?
160
I didn't know you were in Toronto, bro.
161
I'm here, yeah.
162
I'm here in Toronto.
163
What's your name?
164
Ryan.
165
My friend, do you drive?
166
Yeah.
167
You have a car?
168
Yeah.
169
What are you doing tomorrow?
170
Tomorrow, nothing.
171
Would you go on a road trip with me tomorrow? Where to?
172
New York.
173
New York.
174
You know what?
175
I'd be down.
176
You serious?
177
You're joking.
178
I just got to make sure my brother doesn't need the car.
179
Okay, yeah, you make sure, you make sure.
180
Oh, my gosh.
181
What time tomorrow?
182
Early.
183
We leave like 6 a .m.
184
I'm down.
185
Yeah?
186
Yeah.
187
You serious?
188
Yeah.
189
Oh, my gosh, man.
190
Oh, my gosh.
191
And my brother, Cal, can he join us? Of course.
192
You live near here?
193
Yeah.
194
I have nowhere to stay right now.
195
Do you have...
196
You want to stay over the night?
197
Is that calm?
198
Yeah, of course.
199
Cal, clean up the house, bro.
200
Oh, my gosh.
201
My brother, okay, I'll message you, okay?
202
Thank you, my friend, thank you.
203
Oh, my gosh.
204
Ryan had saved us here big time with a whole day spent trying to find someone to take us
205
He came in at the final moments that is incredible kindness
206
And as a reminder we're going to be returning the kindness when this series is done
207
Because the total value of all acts of kindness shown across all the continents
208
Are going to be doubled and split equally between a charity and each of the seven continents when we land back home
209
And thanks to Ryan's kindness here
210
We'd ideally be able to get to our final destination with an NDL member
211
How poetic Now the issue is this has taken us so long that tomorrow we need to be on it.
212
The one thing we can't forget is the challenges we have to complete before leaving this continent.
213
So it's time to at least tick one off.
214
Now the challenge we're going to get out of the way is something indoors because outside in Canada it's freezing.
215
So we're going to attempt to become a world champion.
216
A world champion at bowling.
217
The hardest part of becoming a bowling world champion isn't the bowling itself, but getting it for free.
218
I'm like a movie maker, I make movies.
219
But with the promise of an absolute cinematic masterpiece, we had a free bowling lane and even had an opponent.
220
We'll send you the footage via email and it will be edited like a Hollywood film.
221
Alright, sounds amazing.
222
Yeah?
223
Amazing.
224
The game was underway and although the bowling balls were smaller than usual, I was in high spirits and I was even given free food,
225
which just made my impending victory that bit sweeter.
226
I quite like this, you know, having a ball this size.
227
How's that not a strike?
228
I may have been too confident because suddenly I was losing.
229
You have to knock all your pins down to win.
230
Alex is actually the seven -time small bowling champion.
231
So what can I do in that situation?
232
My brother.
233
Thank you, thank you.
234
I may not have won the trophy for this game, but if you want to see me a different kind of trophy,
235
then please help me hit 10 million subscribers.
236
I like this video too to see our very own like animation exclusive to this series
237
But back to the video and our first challenge was kicked off the list
238
So it was time to go meet up with my new friend Ryan who I'd met earlier
239
He kindly offered me a place to stay
240
so I said adios to George While he went to go
241
and stay in a hotel and I settled in for the night at Ryan's 6am in the morning, it's time for the final push
242
How you doing brother?
243
All good You ready?
244
Let's go Peace out Mr. George Wise Good luck man
245
How you doing?
246
All right, my friends, the car is here.
247
Let's go get this road trip started.
248
The dream team assembled ready to take on the day.
249
First we'd head to Niagara Falls where we'd try to complete an experience.
250
From there we'd cross the border where we'd have a 7 hour drive to New York
251
and along the way we'd have to photograph a native animal and share some shades to tick off some more challenges.
252
To then finish off at Times Square for our final challenge getting some local food.
253
Therefore unlocking our flight back to London to take
254
that final step on home soil to complete our world tour
255
but with now just 14 hours until the flight's cut off point the clock really was against us
256
so good thing George and I were raring to go.
257
I'm absolutely knackered George.
258
How are you feeling?
259
Absolutely knackered.
260
Oh my gosh here we go.
261
I'm just thinking is there anywhere else in which we should try and...
262
No no I haven't tried Timmy's yet.
263
We were now officially leaving Toronto.
264
I wish I could have spent more time in this amazing place but I had a flight to Cal.
265
Are you ready guys?
266
Yes sir.
267
Here we go, it's officially started now.
268
Just the night before I was completely hopeless, roaming the streets for hours and getting nowhere.
269
I thought our 30 day trip around the world was going to go to a bitter end.
270
But now, thanks to Ryan and Cal, things were looking up.
271
Listen guys, I just want to thank you formally for taking me.
272
It's a very big deal for me
273
So I really do appreciate that.
274
I hope we have a great road trip.
275
It's gonna be amazing.
276
And we've been wanting to do this.
277
Yeah Oh, we've been wanting to do a new one.
278
Yeah, a full -on road trip.
279
Yeah, how long has he been in the plans?
280
A couple months ago we wanted to go, but we never had the chance to actually go through the river.
281
There we go.
282
Made that happen.
283
You're changing lives.
284
Changing lives every day.
285
The boring highway turned into weird colorful streets.
286
We'd arrived in the town of Niagara.
287
I don't see no fools here.
288
I see some fools.
289
Four of them.
290
So you just call yourself a fool?
291
Yeah.
292
Yeah, that makes one fool.
293
You, George.
294
Here at the famous Tim Hortons, let's see if I can get anything for free.
295
Hello, very nice to meet you.
296
My name's Nico.
297
I've been travelling around the world for free.
298
Is there any way I could get anything for free from the famous Timmy's in Canada? From Timmy's?
299
So let's try that.
300
Oh my gosh.
301
Thank you.
302
Okay, I'll give it a go.
303
This is a good donut.
304
Oh, you forget.
305
You forget what things are stays at.
306
My friend, thank you so much.
307
You guys did a great job.
308
Thank you.
309
Thank you.
310
10 % of me wants another one, but keep it stepping.
311
Oh, what's this?
312
Thank you.
313
Respect brother.
314
I'll always remember this.
315
Thank you man.
316
Amazing.
317
What a kind guy.
318
The donut was unforgettable.
319
But now it was time to get a move on to the stop that we really came here for.
320
Oh my gosh.
321
Here it is.
322
Look at that.
323
167 feet high and water speeds on the drop reaching up to 68 miles per hour.
324
This place was incredible.
325
It really was spectacular, but we were here for a reason.
326
So it was time to find an experience so that we could tick off this challenge.
327
Summertime, there's a boat down there that will take me all the way around.
328
So you're telling me that there's a boat which goes down the falls like a roller coaster?
329
No, no, it doesn't go down the falls, it comes up the river.
330
That's land.
331
There's no water.
332
The water ends there, you see?
333
No, no, that's just frozen snow and ice right now.
334
And the summertime, when there's no ice, the boat will come right up here to the falls.
335
Does the boat have wheels?
336
So it drives on the land and then it goes into the water?
337
That's not land, that's water.
338
It don't look like water to me, mate.
339
Why is there smoke as well?
340
Is someone building a fire down there?
341
That's just mist off the water.
342
You know we have nothing like this in the UK.
343
I know, that's what we're just saying.
344
Do you guys know that?
345
There's a boat that comes in.
346
Yeah, we've been on it before.
347
What else do they have?
348
Do they have anything else?
349
They have helicopters.
350
They've got helicopters in?
351
Yeah.
352
Where are they?
353
I don't know.
354
We'll check it out though.
355
If we could try and get on the helicopter, that would be sick.
356
After a quick search, we found a helicopter departing site and decided to head there.
357
And I have to admit, I was nervous for this one.
358
Since the dawn of time, I've always had a fear of heights.
359
But I have a very specific fear of helicopters.
360
But to go out on a bang, I needed to face that fear.
361
I can't believe I'm saying this, but we're about to attempt to get on a helicopter for free.
362
Hello.
363
Pleasure to meet you.
364
I'm Nico.
365
I'm currently doing a documentary about travelling the world through the kindness of strangers.
366
This is my seventh out of seven continents.
367
This is the final part of what we're doing.
368
We're going to try and go to New York.
369
Is there any way we can get on a helicopter today for free?
370
You can only have that in advance.
371
They usually send something in and then...
372
Yes, completely understand.
373
They usually...
374
Um, just one for free.
375
We can give you...
376
Oh?
377
So you could get me on that for...
378
Really?
379
It's Jay, or if you could tag us on Instagram for the experience.
380
Thank you, and you don't even know my Instagram.
381
I would know, I can check right now.
382
Yes, yes, yes, you can.
383
Your personal name.
384
My name is Nico.
385
Thank you very much.
386
Thank you.
387
Oh no, that's not me.
388
But if this was me, you'd still let me on the helicopter.
389
That's fine, yes, that's fine.
390
My friends, this is absolutely mental.
391
What a way!
392
This is how we're leaving Canada.
393
Oh, crazy!
394
And you know what?
395
You hear that, George?
396
Listen on the radio right there?
397
That's Coldplay, yeah?
398
Which means you already know what's about to happen.
399
When a Coldplay song comes on, you know it's about to feel good.
400
At the beginning of this
401
World Tour, we'd managed to start off in the air in a private jet completely for free.
402
And now 29 days later we were gonna be doing the same thing but this time in a helicopter
403
What's your name?
404
Bastion, keep us safe
405
Oh gosh, why is it shaking?
406
Oh it's shaking
407
Oh my gosh, I can't believe it
408
Sometimes all you need is a story
409
Usually in my career I fabricate these stories to try and get stuff
410
But today what we've just done right now
411
We thought this by telling the truth
412
That was ridiculous and I wasn't the only one who forced it Let's go!
413
One thing this series has done is it's forced me out of my comfort zone, man.
414
Goodness me, I've come out of my comfort zone.
415
That is crazy, we're going back down now.
416
Okay, this is cool.
417
This is cool.
418
Now I can enjoy myself.
419
Wow, wow.
420
This is cool.
421
Oh, Bastien.
422
Brother, oh, that is amazing.
423
Thank you so much.
424
Oh
425
What an experience for not just me
426
but my brothers Ryan Cal as well with
427
so little time until our flight from New York
428
We had to get things back on the moon for us you guys a good road trip
429
We're having a good one so far, right?
430
Yeah, we've got to get back on the road for real.
431
Just like we have through this whole series, we're running very tight on time.
432
We have to make it to the airport.
433
If we don't do that, we won't catch the flight, which means we won't do this in 30 days.
434
Issue is, right now, we've got to cross the border.
435
For me, crossing the American border is very difficult, thanks to a series I did a few years ago with Gideon.
436
Come here.
437
Is there a remote control ball there?
438
No!
439
No!
440
You will regret this day, Rory McIlroy!
441
Oh, please man, this needs to be successful.
442
We arrived at the American border ready for the worst.
443
There you go.
444
How much time are we gonna lose here?
445
Could my 30 day tour around the world fall at the final hurdle and ultimately amount to nothing?
446
Hey G.
447
That is the first time since I was arrested that I've been able to go in without being stopped.
448
The world wants this to happen.
449
We are now in the United States, our final country before we head back home.
450
And all we have to do is take a picture of an animal and eat a food, both native to the continent.
451
But we're limited on time.
452
How far are we?
453
Six hours, 42 minutes.
454
Six hours, 42 minutes.
455
That's light work.
456
That's light work.
457
This is going to have to be pretty much non -stop. And so we continued.
458
It was a long road ahead.
459
I kept my eyes peeled for some native animals.
460
Oh, an ant!
461
But I wasn't the only one with a side quest on this road trip.
462
Cal's about to have his work interview.
463
Feeling alright?
464
Feeling great.
465
What's the position for?
466
A volunteering position at like a care home.
467
Okay, good luck Cal.
468
Hello.
469
Hello, how are you?
470
I'm doing well, how about you?
471
Great.
472
He's trying to be a doctor.
473
Not quite as hard as you choose, but I respect it.
474
As the clock was ticking on our flight, Cal didn't mind that we kept on driving.
475
But I did my best to support him through the interview
476
Helicopter rides, you like helicopter rides?
477
I do some graphic design sometimes Helicopter rides?
478
Yeah, I just went on my first helicopter ride recently
479
So I like to...
480
Thank you for sharing
481
With that, I was at peace I knew that
482
Cal had definitely secured the job I think you absolutely smashed that interview, my friend Well done.
483
Although Cal was successful, I wasn't.
484
I still hadn't found a native animal, but I suspected I might get a little more luck in a rural American town.
485
And we just so happened to be near one.
486
The plan is, guys, you want to say what the plan is?
487
We're gonna go to Livingston Burnham.
488
Excuse me, sir.
489
How you doing?
490
I'm doing really, yeah, really bad.
491
What do you need?
492
So basically I'm trying to find where the animals are.
493
You would have to ask probably the guy that's inside.
494
Do you know his name?
495
I think his name is Anthony.
496
Anthony.
497
OK, you're very observant to read someone's shirt like that.
498
Have a great day.
499
You too.
500
Kowalski.
501
Kowalski?
502
Kowalski.
503
Anthony.
504
Huh?
505
Anthony.
506
Who's asking?
507
Me.
508
We've traveled the world and we've been told that Anthony will be the one who can tell us where the animals are.
509
Okay, first of all, how do you know my name?
510
Someone told me that Anthony will be the one, you know?
511
Do you know about any animals in this area?
512
Oh, you got deer, you got bears.
513
Deer, bears, anything else?
514
You're very mysterious, Anthony, you are.
515
I'm a little leery because I don't know exactly who you are.
516
Nico.
517
What was your name?
518
Nico.
519
There's a documentary about finding Anthony because someone told us
520
that Anthony from Livingston Manor will be the man who can tell us where the animals are.
521
Tell you the truth, we're all animals.
522
So you're telling me I could take a picture of you?
523
No, I will not organize you to take pictures.
524
Pleasure, nice to meet you Anthony.
525
Alright, thank you, thank you.
526
Which direction can we go for the animals?
527
North, south and east.
528
North, south, east, okay, alright.
529
What are you doing?
530
We're trying to find an animal in Livingston Manor or in any area.
531
You just had one.
532
What?
533
Anthony.
534
He's an animal.
535
That's what everyone says.
536
We were tight on time so I had no choice but to follow Anthony's clear and precise instructions.
537
North, south and east.
538
So you go this way.
539
Yeah, this is north.
540
Yes.
541
Then you go south.
542
This way.
543
Bang.
544
And then you go east.
545
This way.
546
Pick up the speed.
547
We can't be here for much longer.
548
I really needed this picture because without it our 30 -day challenge would completely fail.
549
Excuse me!
550
Yoo -hoo!
551
Excuse me, sir.
552
Oh my gosh.
553
Where can I find the nearest animal?
554
Animal?
555
Yeah.
556
I can't help you.
557
Surely there is a way.
558
Yeah, I know there's a way.
559
You know there's a way?
560
I'll call 911.
561
I'll get a cop up here.
562
He'll help you.
563
Oh, Willie, please do.
564
That's...
565
Could you call them?
566
If they can help me, that'd be great.
567
Have a great day.
568
Love and guidance.
569
Who would have thought there's a criminal activity here to take a picture of an animal?
570
Excuse me, miss.
571
Excuse me.
572
I'm really sorry to ask, but do you know where the nearest animal I can find is that I could take a picture of?
573
The dogs all over the street.
574
No, that's a good one.
575
It's just I'm getting a little bit emotional because I've been looking for an animal for, like, three years and I haven't found one yet.
576
You have to be patient and you have to go out in the country and I mean really help.
577
I really appreciate your help.
578
What's your name?
579
Emmeline.
580
Emmeline.
581
Nice to meet you, Emmeline.
582
My name's Nico.
583
Thank you so much, Emmeline.
584
You have helped us more than you'll ever know.
585
Let's go.
586
That's enough advice.
587
We headed out of the town.
588
All the help suggested that we'd find an animal somewhere in the countryside.
589
Animals.
590
These animals.
591
It must be an animal.
592
Oh, look.
593
What animal is that?
594
Beautiful creature See that all the way over there?
595
We got our animal
596
Yes, come on Now we go to our final challenge
597
And that's having
598
New York American pizza
599
Well let's just go then, not stand Okay, let's go
600
New York pizza is an affordable, fast -paced street food
601
That is massively popular amongst locals and travellers
602
But also popular with me
603
As it will be the 36th and final challenge across the entire world tour.
604
35 challenges completed across all seven continents, and it's all come down to one slice of pizza.
605
But not if we don't get there in time.
606
We are very, very, very low on time.
607
Let's go, brothers.
608
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
609
We were back on the road for the final stretch of the entire world tour.
610
It was important that no one got tired now, and to keep everyone awake, I had a revolutionary hypothetical question.
611
Guys, guys, guys, I've got a question.
612
You guys were offered a million pounds, but if someone said a specific word within a hundred meters of you, you'd explode and die.
613
What word would you guys choose?
614
There's a word I read once and have never heard anyone use it in a sentence.
615
In any inter -altyping I've ever had.
616
And that word is seldom.
617
Pedagogy.
618
Pedagogy?
619
What's that?
620
The way you teach something.
621
Pedagogy is a solid word.
622
I'd probably go with kholosh.
623
What does that mean?
624
Kholosh is a product that everyone adores.
625
Like these, Shades Sweets.
626
These are actually the sweet made for everyone.
627
And I would say they are definitely kholosh.
628
Kholosh?
629
Kholosh!
630
We've delivered it to North America.
631
We're trying to be everywhere in the world.
632
If you want us to be everywhere in the world, please follow us on social media, at shadesbyniko, TikTok, Instagram, follow us up.
633
That's amazing.
634
You like it, yeah?
635
Yeah.
636
Thank you guys.
637
Just so you guys know, polosh is a made up word.
638
What word would you say, George?
639
Like, hydromedes.
640
What you should have said was cool, because no one within 100 meters is saying that you're cool.
641
Same, man.
642
But Shades by Nico are definitely cool, so make sure you check out our store locator and get some for your next road trip.
643
Check it out at shadesbyniko .com.
644
They're available in Sainsbury's and many other stores.
645
I'm sure your friends would love it if you got some for them.
646
So go ahead and do that if you feel like it
647
We're now approaching
648
New York City, but as this is the final challenge I need to get out of this and change into something better
649
Here we go.
650
We've got to do this quick
651
All dressed and suited up my friends say goodbye to the NDL clothing which I've been wearing guys
652
We made this clothing specifically for this series.
653
So if you have enjoyed this series
654
This is the best way to support it and then a part of the world tour will live with you forever
655
So get the clothing now.
656
We got t -shirts hoodies and shorts.
657
It's only available for a very limited amount of time now
658
This was it my final destination was within reach just a few more miles down this road
659
And we'd be in the final location to complete our final challenge like most of this world tour
660
We had basically no time as we entered
661
New York I swear
662
North America has been so on the edge non -stop.
663
We haven't had time to breathe.
664
Time square is just up there.
665
It was literally around the corner, but because we were so low on time and traffic was holding us up,
666
Ryan and Cal told me to run myself so I'd have a better chance of making it in time.
667
Okay, okay, alright.
668
Let's run, let's run, let's run.
669
Thank you guys, thank you, thank you.
670
Oh my gosh, thank you.
671
Oh my gosh.
672
The rush here felt like no other.
673
This had been a crazy journey, traveling for free all the way from the UK through Spain to South Africa, to Ethiopia, then to Thailand,
674
all the way to Laos, to Australia, then
675
New Zealand, followed by Antarctica, then Argentina, then
676
Chile, then Brazil, all the way over to Canada, and now finally
677
New York City, USA.
678
All those locations, all in 30 days.
679
But to complete this journey, I needed that pizza slice.
680
And with only 11 hours until that deadline and 2 hours till that flight, all odds were stacked against me.
681
No time for B -roll.
682
We gotta go.
683
Oh my gosh.
684
Where do we go in New York to get some
685
New York pizza?
686
And I gotta try and get it for free.
687
No pizza, no pizza.
688
29 days of progress could be completely wasted.
689
This was the time crunch that topped all the others in this series.
690
There's no pizza sports.
691
Excuse me, guys.
692
Do you know where I can get pizza?
693
I'm not sure.
694
I'm not sure I have pizza around here.
695
There has to be somewhere.
696
What the f* are y 'all doing?
697
Running to get some pizza!
698
He said, aight, y 'all keep going.
699
And those words were all I needed to push myself past that finish line.
700
Right there, New York's favourite pizza.
701
It's perfect.
702
Let's make sure I'm smart for this.
703
But we weren't there yet.
704
I still needed to get the pizza for free.
705
Hello, my friend.
706
Pleasure to meet you.
707
I'm Nico.
708
So, I'm currently on a journey.
709
I've been to seven continents.
710
I've done it all through the kindness of strangers and spending no money.
711
It's all led me right here to this pizza spot, New York's favourite pizza.
712
The last thing I need to do is just get some food.
713
Is there any way you'd give me a slice of pizza for free?
714
Yeah.
715
Thank you.
716
Thank you.
717
Can I give you a hug?
718
No?
719
Okay, I'll take the slice of pizza.
720
That'd be great.
721
What's your name, sir?
722
You're a legend, Endric.
723
Thank you so much.
724
I really appreciate this.
725
Thank you so much.
726
Thank you.
727
Thank you.
728
Shout out to Familga Pizza.
729
Guys, we just travelled to all seven continents all to get this slice of pizza right here.
730
It's all led up to this moment.
731
Congratulations.
732
Thank you so much.
733
Thank you.
734
I'm so happy with me.
735
I haven't tried it yet.
736
Oh, it's all out on this. That was good pizza!
737
Seven continent pizza!
738
Thank you so much!
739
You guys are amazing!
740
You're pizza and you're amazing!
741
We've done it George!
742
Seven continents all over this!
743
A slice of damn pizza!
744
A slice of damn New York!
745
So, my friends, if you're watching this right now, I'm going to ask you to do one thing.
746
One singular thing.
747
If you can do one act of kindness to someone, because you don't know the difference that act of kindness can make.
748
Acts of kindness have got me around the whole world, to every single continent.
749
So please, if you take anything from watching this whole thing, please just do any act of kindness.
750
Because kindness can change the world. For real.
751
Nobody said it was easy
752
It's such a shame for us to part
753
There are so many people I need to thank for being here right now
754
There are too many people to name
755
So I'm going to put all their names on the screen because they're all absolute legends.
756
Every single person, company, anything that helped me, I am so grateful, any organisation, everything.
757
We made it here.
758
The one person I really, really want to thank is my good brother George.
759
He's been here with me the whole time.
760
So my brother, we done it.
761
Yeah?
762
Oh, and another person I want to thank is our producer May, who's been helping us behind the scenes everywhere, and together we have done it.
763
So with that our final challenge was complete and
764
because we now crossed into another country
765
and completed all our challenges our final continental flight ticket was unlocked
766
which is a paid for ticket to another continent once the continent had been completed
767
but it wasn't over yet we still had to actually make it to the flight and we didn't have long at all.
768
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
769
Okay, I can't find these guys.
770
Where are they?
771
Where are they?
772
They're calling, they're calling.
773
We're at the center of Times Square.
774
Okay, okay.
775
We'll meet you there.
776
Tom, Hank, what the f*?
777
Tom!
778
Tom!
779
Tom!
780
Tom!
781
Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello.

783
On the side, yeah? Which side?
784
Which side are you going to be on?
785
Stand on the...
786

814
Sorry.
815
Sorry.
816
Sorry.
817
Oh my goodness me Heading home.
818
Yeah, we had done it somehow we had done it and just seven hours later at 11am local time, we had arrived back in London,
819
where this whole journey began.
820
We've been travelling around the whole world.
821
We've done it all without spending any money, and we've done it within the 30 days.
822
Let me take foot on actual UK ground.
823
Here we go.
824
One lap around the world completed.
825
We started this on March 11th, just past 1pm.
826
And we're back April 10th, 11 .41.
827
That is absolutely mental.
828
All that's left to say is that has been the world travelled with no money, powered by vibes.
829
Alright, let's go.
830
I'll wait.
831
One more thing to reveal.
832
I guess it's easier for me to show you, but there's something I hid from you guys.
833
Little reveal now
834
As I've established there's literally no way I could have completed the 30 -day journey without the kindness of strangers
835
And there's been some special individuals along the way
836
And even though when everything you've seen so far
837
that it may appear that I left them empty -handed as I rushed off to my flights
838
If you really think I would do that, then I don't think you've been watching me long enough Peace out.
839
Oh, but oh actually there is one thing if you could open this please
840
Brother, so obviously I can't give money.
841
There you go.
842
So, yeah, you can read it.
843
It says, I owe you £1000 from Nico.
844
So we send you that when we finish with everything, yes?
845
No problem, bro.
846
Money is nothing.
847
Friendship is...
848
I know, I know, I know, I know.
849
And we didn't stop there.
850
I forgot I also needed to give you this, my friend.
851
I'm going to send you £1 ,000.
852
Jason, I want to give you £1 ,000.
853
I'll send you £1 ,000.
854
I'm going to send you £1 ,000.
855
So I want to give you both £1 ,000.
856
No. I'll send it over to you.
857
I know, I know, I know.
858
This is the reaction I keep getting.
859
Got my brother, yeah?
860
Really appreciate you, man.
861
Thank you.
862
My brother.
863
Thank you.
864
Thank you very much.
865
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
866
My brother.
867
My brother.
868
You spent a lot of money on me
869
and I really did out the kindness of your heart so thank you very much
870
Oh man I appreciate it, it was really kind
871
It was for the experience, yeah?
872
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know and I really appreciate you guys I have my brother,
873
you know what, bring it in, yeah?
874
Thank you so much, thank you so much guys
875
Without all the help from these guys this route would not have been possible so they got what was long overdue
876
They played an essential part in me getting around the world for free
877
and one more time I just want to say thank you
878
But it's not just these guys we've given back to,
879
as you know we've been totalling up all acts of kindness and doubling it for each continent.
880
And for our final charity for North America, we've chosen The Salvation Army, a charity providing help for people in need,
881
tackling poverty, homelessness and addiction through the use of community centres, shelters, food banks and emergency aid.
882
So after totalling up all the acts of kindness from this episode and adding it to our current amount,
883
the charity pot's final total comes to £33 ,825, which we'll now be splitting equally between the seven chosen charities from this series.
884
And when I eventually got back home, I had a much needed, long awaited, three month long nap.
885
I honestly think without the sleep I would have died.
886
But the journey wasn't over because I still had one final mission to complete.
887
Back in the continent of Asia, I had arguably the biggest assist of the whole series with Kanbon.
888
A man that drove me across the span of Thailand for the love of the game.
889
See, Kanbon is an old friend and this wasn't his first time doing a huge favour for me.
890
And there was nothing I wanted to do more than repay Kanbon's kindness in whatever way I can.
891
So I decided to help him live out his dream.
892
If I have money, I want to go to Old Trafford.
893
Old Trafford?
894
Yes.
895
Do you know what team I support?
896
I know you support Manchester.
897
Manchester United?
898
Yeah.
899
You have passport?
900
No. You need to sort the passport and we'll try to take you to Old Trafford.
901
I can't believe I'm saying this, but after a long and grueling process trying to get his visa,
902
We are now picking Kanbon up from his hotel
903
and now we're gonna take him around the UK just like
904
he took me around Thailand Hello my friend great to see you my friend
905
It's good to see you.
906
Hello You want to see London?
907
Yes, of course.
908
Let's go to the car.
909
Okay.
910
It was insane Kanbon was really here in the UK Oh my gosh.
911
Oh, this car.
912
It was time to kick the day off as we had a long list of things to do.
913
Today, I'll show you London, then I'll take you to my hometown.
914
Then tomorrow morning early, we go Manchester, we see Manchester.
915
You heard of Buckingham Palace?
916
Yes, this one, right?
917
Oh, really nice.
918
We started our day with all the big landmarks of London.
919
This way, this way.
920
You're back with this video, right?
921
Rebon made sure that there would be pictures of absolutely everything.
922
Rebon!
923
You're going to this video.
924
And I made sure that our London tour would include everything important.
925
You happy?
926
Really happy, Nico.
927
If you don't help me, I cannot come here, you know.
928
My friend, my friend did not believe I can come to London.
929
I showed him on Facebook.
930
Oh, everybody believe me!
931
They all see it.
932
Yeah.
933
So this is your first time leaving Thailand?
934
First time outside Thailand, the first time to here.
935
The first time with an airplane.
936
You understand? That was crazy.
937
I don't believe this. And rebound?
938
Same.
939
Hey, there we go.
940
You want to try the bike?
941
Yeah, no, no. I think it's a bike from somebody.
942
No, no, you want to try it?
943
Really?
944
Yeah.
945
There we go.
946
Ah, I can't go.
947
Whoa!
948
Let's go Kanbon!
949
Look at the pedal.
950
You're gonna go one?
951
Yeah.
952
Maybe I can get that moving though, right?
953
Absolutely impossible.
954
Alright, let's go, let's go.
955
When I say I'm driving the line bike with one pedal, this is one of the hardest things I've done.
956
Let's go Kanbon!
957
Let's go, let's go!
958
Let's go!
959
With London ticked off, our next stop was my hometown, Stafford.
960
It seemed only right that Kanbon took me to his hometown, So I wanted to return the favour.
961
Wow, just very nice.
962
Kanban's never been on a train before.
963
Never, never.
964
What has impressed him the most is the green, just the farm areas.
965
I think green first, you come here.
966
I think your home will have the tree.
967
I think you have your home only have the one piece, you understand?
968
How are you?
969
I'm fine, thank you.
970
That's good, that's good.
971
You recognise me, yeah?
972
That's proper sick, brother.
973
There we go, Kanboni.
974
We need people, you know me.
975
All right, here we are.
976
This is my town, Stafford.
977
We started our trip down memory lane and Kanbon didn't seem to care about the UK weather.
978
So you've never seen rain like this?
979
No, no, no. It's really fun.
980
I like to work with raining like this.
981
In Thailand, raining too heavy.
982
I showed Kanbon my old school where I grew up
983
and then we headed to my old college where I first met George.
984
Stanford College?
985
Yes!
986
Stanford College, there we go!
987
Yes, Stanford College!
988
And Rebond was loving it.
989
He was still taking pictures of everything.
990
Taking pictures of Stafford is never something I've seen before.
991
Rebond is hilarious.
992
We were having a great time checking out Stafford, but all of this walking began to work up an appetite.
993
I want to try
994
Thai food in England.
995
Okay.
996
Thailand.
997
Only English.
998
No Thai.
999
No Thai?
1000
No Thai, you need to ask for the Thai menu.
1001
But luckily for Kan Bon, he was able to talk to the waitresses directly in Thai.
1002
I can't speak
1003
Thai, I'm very happy.
1004
Yeah, yeah, yeah, very happy.
1005
They want to talk with me?
1006
The Thai people, you know, very happy.
1007
If Thai people meet another country, they want to talk, they want to learn together.
1008
Thank you.
1009
Thank you.
1010
Here, one and a half.
1011
Okay.
1012
Does this taste like home?
1013
Yeah, oh, yeah, also same home.
1014
Yeah, same, same home.
1015
Yeah, really good.
1016

1017
Of course, of course, of course.
1018
Thank you for coming.
1019
Thank you, thank you.
1020
Shout out to Thailand.
1021
We finished our meal and drove to the hotel where Kanbon, Rebon and George would be staying for the night.
1022
See you very soon, yeah?
1023
All right, okay.
1024
See you in the morning.
1025
Tomorrow, big day.
1026
Okay, okay.
1027
Today's the big day.
1028
I'm picking Kanbon up from his hotel right now.
1029

1030
Good morning, good morning.
1031
Are you ready?
1032

1033

1034

1035
Yeah, come on Manchester United.
1036
Manchester United, Manchester United, Manchester United.
1037
You became for me.
1038
We are now in Manchester, what are you thinking?
1039
I don't believe I can come to here, oh, top four.
1040
Oh, top four.
1041
I don't believe I can come to here, I'm the car.
1042
This is amazing man, this is genuinely the best thing we've ever done.
1043
I like it, I like it.
1044
You like it, yeah.
1045
But before the match started, everyone needed to get suited up properly for the big day.
1046
Looking good.
1047
Very good, very good.
1048
Thank you very much for buying something from me.
1049
Thank you, Nico.
1050
We're headed to get some food, but Kanbon shared his prediction for the big game against Aston Villa.
1051
You too, Aston Man.
1052
Sorry, Josh.
1053
Sorry, sorry, Josh.
1054
Sorry, Josh, yeah.
1055
Aston Man.
1056
There we go!
1057
That's the play.
1058
Is this how you imagined it?
1059
Yeah, yeah, I like to see like this.
1060
Yes, it's mighty.
1061
You happy?
1062

1063

1064
Oh, Bruno.
1065

1066

1067
Hamad, that's one right?
1068
Yeah, Hamad, my favourite player.
1069
No, no, I'm so excited.
1070
Very nice, very exciting.
1071
Yes!
1072
Exciting, brother.
1073
Go on!
1074
Oh!
1075
Let's go, let's go.
1076
It's nice.
1077
It's not hard.
1078
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
1079
Oh!
1080
Yeah!
1081
Oh!
1082
Yeah!
1083
Very good game, very good game.
1084
Kanbon was loving every single minute of it.
1085
Ah, very good to go.
1086
Is that your family?
1087
Your friend, Rint.
1088
Hello!
1089
Hello!
1090
His friends in the tuk -tuk.
1091
There we go, we're here in Manchester.
1092
Hey, Lu Manu said you're really fun.
1093
Last month I'm on the TV.
1094
I like it.
1095
That's cool, man.
1096
I'm glad you're enjoying it.
1097
Yeah, very good game.
1098
As the second half unfolded, I really reflected on how far Kanbon and I had come.
1099
From meeting him completely by chance to touring Thailand together, then touring Thailand together again to meeting his best friends and family.
1100
This was the least I could do for him.
1101
I said that make me happy.
1102
I come here one time.
1103
And as if Kanbon's wishes were being answered right then and there.
1104
Sorry Josh.
1105
Sorry Josh.
1106
He jerked right out of it.
1107
Oh my gosh!
1108
Go that man!
1109
And Cameron's luck didn't run out there, because soon after we were awarded a penalty.
1110
Bruno's going to score!
1111
Here we go, it's going to be full time.
1112
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I want to see this old Chao Ford.
1113
It's a very good team for me too.
1114
This is your dream?
1115
Yes.
1116
Thank you very much.
1117
Nico, you give me my dream, okay?
1118
Thank you very much.
1119
You deserve this, my friend.
1120
Yes, yes, I'm very happy.
1121
It would have been cool if we got on the pitch, right?
1122
No, no, no, no, no. You can't.
1123
What if I said it's possible?
1124
I don't know.
1125
Thank you very much.
1126
Thank you very much, Nico.
1127
I cannot come to the stadium.
1128
I'm so very happy.
1129
I cannot come to the stadium like this.
1130

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
