This Couple Turned a 1 Year Trip Across Asia Into a 3-Minute Running Hyperlapse

Daniel and Gina of Sunrise Odyssey recently completed a 1 year journey across Asia that spanned 12 different countries. Throughout the trip, the couple documented major locations with a series of photos of them jumping in front of the camera.

Those self-portraits were then turned into this wonderful hyperlapse video showing the duo running across the continent in just 3 minutes.

“Marvel at the breathtaking changing landscapes as we ‘traverse’ across 12 different countries,” the adventure travel bloggers write. They left their footprints on China, Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran, Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, and Greece.

There wasn’t a third person to help shoot photos, so everything was done with a tripod and a string (to keep the distances the same throughout the shots). Here’s a behind-the-scenes glimpse at how the duo managed to create all the photos themselves:
