Hi! I'm Evi. I'm an Aussie artist and adventurer. I'm one of those weirdos seeking to be a jack of all trades/ master of none. I think life's too short not to try everything.
I make adventure videos and so hope you'll follow along for my self-deprecating humour, hiking shenanigans and whatever else I decide to chuck on here.
Best,
Evi

Bloody Tourist at NASA | Living my space dreams without having to fly into the abyss
Daan and I went to Space Center Houston! This was a big bucket list item for me and we even got to hear two astronauts speak about their experiences in space!
Our adventure happened to fall on the 40th anniversary of one exciting episode of Dr. Sally K. Ride’s extraordinary life-STS-7, the historic mission when she became the first American woman in space.
All in all a BRILLIANT, exhausting, and hot day.
COSTS:
Tickets ~$30pp (includes museum access and the FREE Tram tours to Rocket Park and the Astronaut Training Facility - but you have to book! Mission Control/ Breakky w an Astronaut costs extra)
Parking ~$10
Lunch ~ $15pp (actually had pretty good food in the dining hall!)
Gifts ~I am not confessing to the stupid amount we spent...
RECOMMENDATIONS:
- Bring a hat, water bottle, and sunscreen if going in the Summer. I'm not your mum but this was ESPECIALLY HOT and exhausting.
- Book a couple of weeks in advance if you want to take the Mission Control Tour! Pretty bummed we missed out but our day was jam-packed from 9am to 6pm regardless. There is PLENTY to do!
- Have a look at what events are on the Space Center Houston Website! They do extra FREE special presentations and activities.

Bloody Tourist in San Antonio | FREE Things to do or not to do I don't care
มุมมอง 2.3Kปีที่แล้ว
My better half was deployed down to San Antonio for work so I spent the day being a bloody tourist. Everywhere I went was free, the only things I paid for were parking, lunch, and DONUTS. Had a great day overall! Will be taking y’all to my favourite places around Austin next when the weather warms up!

Silly Australians Go Camping in Texas | Enchanted Rock, Fredericksburg, Mason & s'more

Daan and I took a bloody good camping trip toward the end of last year and just had an absolute blast. First time I properly picked up a camera since moving to the States. I had this idea that I would be consistently sharing my experience coming here but unfortunately, a lot went wrong last year... a lot also went very, very right. Feeling excited to share more now that 2023 is my year dedicate...
The Last Leg | Chapter Three on The Bibbulmun Track
มุมมอง 6792 ปีที่แล้ว
In July 2020, I hiked the first 650kms of the 1000km Bibbulmun Track and in July 2021, I finished the remaining 350kms. My 2021 hike was more difficult by a long shot… I ran into four other hikers in total, got rained on EVERY day, rolled my ankle and nearly slid off the trail into the ocean never to be seen again. BUT hey, I conquered, I overcame and honestly it kickstarted my journey to becom...

I've been watching loads of videos, and they all give me the inspiration to do my trek this Easter 2025. Champion to soldier on with your ankle injury.
Love your vid, what month did you walk this section?
Haha your warped i like it!😂
Funny and determined. Great stuff.
Thanks mate! Miss the trail heaps now!
Beers before sleeping stuff… such an Aussie! 😂😂
Hello it’s Vivien! Great views!! Love the video! Congratulations too saw your dad today…
Thank you Vivien! Would have loved to have seen the both of you!
The term hamburger ultimately comes from a Hamburg steak (ground beef patty) from Germany. We stuck it between two buns and the name survives the change. So, in keeping with the background of hamburger, a chicken breast is not even close to a ground beef patty and it is not, therefore, a hamburger when served in a bun.
See I genuinely appreciate the history lessons and context I get from posting something a touch controversial. WE ARE DIFFERENT IN OZ but I will respect the protocols here!! Thanks for the info!
Butt first coffee? Is that a coffee enema?
I hate that I laughed at this 😂
Fun fact: Enchanted Rock 65 million years ago was actually an island in the Western Interior Seaway which was a sea that spanned from the Gulf of Mexico to the arctic cutting North America in half.
DUDE SO EPIC. Thanks for sharing!
From a native Texan, I'm very sorry you didn't have a good time. 😕 Maybe next time get a local to show you around?
Hey Macele, I've lived here for a year now and I think it just took some getting used to and a quick trip home to tend to the homesickness. Moving overseas is new and exciting but there's also a lot of hard work that comes with it and I didn't anticipate the extent of it all! 2023 is off to a fantastic start and I'm prioritising doing work that aligns with my values and seeing more of what Texas has to offer! Love my local Texan buddies and grateful for all they're teaching me ☺️✨
@@itseviruz That is fantastic to hear. I hope it's all downhill from here on. And I appreciate the personal response, and I mean this unironically but that is very Texan of you. 🤗 One thing we Texans forget to talk about is how punishing the weather can be. We sell the great food and awesome people, etcetera, but forget to tell folks that they could die if they don't take account of the climate. Good luck and thanks again.
I am a tour guide in San Antonio. Excellent video.
Thank you sir! I appreciate it!
You might find a turkey burger, but I doubt you'll find anywhere in Texas offering a chicken burger. That will always be a sandwich here. You might find a lamb burger or maybe a buffalo burger (which is really bison). Future trips to San Antonio, they have a really nice botanical garden there, and you should visit the missions along the Mission Trail.
Y'all do have some damn good burgers! I just have to remember the correct terminology 😂 Thanks for the recommendation! Will be back for a second dose in the near future methinks ☺️
Burgers are ground meat, sandwiches are slices, fillets, chunks, etc. of meat. 😂
AMERICA YOU CONTINUE TO ELUDE ME
@@itseviruz Pretty simple, actually...if it's a ground patty its a burger, otherwise, sandwich
Literally no one has ever put it down to these simple terms for me. Thanks y'all! 🙏
Omg the tea gardens! A lot of my well and miss spent youth spent there! Native San Antonian here. 4:51
Will absolutely be back when I have more time to sit and relax 😍 thanks for watching native Texan!
More of this please, we want weekly vlogs!!! You’re a star Evi 🤩
Y'all are too bloody kind! 😭 Plan is to film Austin next and hopefully getting down to South America later this year!🤞Love you both so much!! ❤️❤️
This is great Evi - very impressed with the shooting and editing here and your latest vid! Seeing America through the lens of you two is fab 💖 also Americans are so damn weird. Hope you’re having fun and staying safe xxxxxxxxx
Means a lot coming from you mate! They really are but I'm learning a hell of a lot and we're lucky to have some brilliant friends too 💞 Hope you two are happy and healthy and having a grand old time too!! 🥰 Xoxoxo
Yay! Great to see you Kettle! X
Miss you CREEEEEEAK <3
Love u guys !! Great vid x
Love you and miss you, gorgeous woman! More adventures to come! <3
Nice presentation style.
Thanks Bob! Have a good day mate!
Thanks for sharing! May I ask one thing? I am going to do Bibbulmun soon, but just one thing that I can not swim and it makes me soooo scary to do the Kayaking the boat …. Is it difficult? Can I do it😱😰
The canoes were very stable and there should be life jackets so it's easily doable. The biggest risk is getting in and out of them at the bank If you have opportunity before your trek try and see if you can hire one first just so you are over the mental anxiety bit. If it's stupidly windy and choppy my original comment might not apply. That might mean the beach walk option but I don't recall the detail of that.
Hi Hi Sunny! I'll echo Bob's comment below (apologies for the late reply!) I found the kayaks to be very stable despite the windy conditions although it certainly worked my arms paddling! I'd also recommend hiring a kayak prior to the hike just to practise the arm motions so you can be more confident moving over the crossing in the event there is a stronger current. I did most of my hiking in July so I can't comment as to how the crossing and the weather may be during the earlier months of the year. I hope you have a brilliant time! It's easily one of the best things I've done in my life!
Thank you so much both of you 🪴
𝚙𝚛𝚘𝚖𝚘𝚜𝚖 ❤️
Beautiful scenery in this one Kettle! So glad to see the final leg :) thanks for the shout out! I'm so grateful for your support on my AT hike too. Hope to see you again soon one day for another hike xx
the mood shift from the first two vids - the people you meet (and bring!) seem as important as the scenery on a long hike
What a lovely down to earth young woman! Doing my first overnighter on the Bibb next week at 48yrs old and have wanted to do it since I was 19!
I hope it was a huge success Pauline!! So stoked for you! And thank you so much!
Were you shivering at all?
Absolutely Tyler. Just before I hitchhiked from 5kms North of Parrys Beach I couldn't feel my hands. Definitely have had some very chilly nights out there but am super grateful for my new sleeping set up.
@@itseviruz thats awesome! if it happens again, you should document the shivering/cold to show it. i'd love to see that. great stuff tho! cant wait to see more from you!
Nice one, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Peter!
