    I can't believe our government is so shortsighted and inflexible that they can't give you both an unlimited visa to stay in the country. You have done so much as Europeans to advertise this country as a unique travel destination, both in the past and for future travellers. You are worth a fortune to Australia. We do have Australians making travel videos, but that is nothing like having Europeans describing their travels here with the credibility of commentators unbiased by parochialism. You also deserve praise and admiration for the way you adapted to the COVID limitations by bootstrapping yourself to build your own brilliant Expedition Vehicle, which I am sure has been both an inspiration and education to others to do the same. I also admire the way you have adapted to fruit picking to finance your stay. I did this myself when I was young, so I know how physically demanding and mentally stultifying the work is and speaks voumes for how much you were prepared to suffer to enjoy this country. I presume you have explored the option of going to New Zealand and applying for another tourist visa as so many of my university students have? Failing that, I wish you both all the best for the next stage of your lives. If the German Government was blessed with insight, they'd buy you a modern 535 Unimog with a Helgeth 6x6 conversion, hydrostatic suspension and Expedition Camper and let you loose on the world to demonstrate the superiority of Unimogs and German engineering. At least you wouldn't have your teeth rattled anymore by a 40-year-old Australian military vehicle trying to cope with Aussie corrugations.

      I wouldn’t risk driving a modern unimog stuffed with delicate electronics in Australia at all; it would fucking break down there. Modern Unimogs suck.

      Yes it has been a challenging road, and while we try and stay away from politics on this channel, we do agree that politics these days are too reactive instead of being proactive. Instead of planning ahead they seem to just react to what seems like the "most pressing subjects" at the time. Sadly the same is happening in Germany and many other countries around the world...
      As for new Unimogs, I actually like the simplicity of the older models, granted there is some room for improvement (especially in power), but we are actually planning another futureproofed build so stay tuned for that!

      The ground clearance on the Mogs is just insane😍

      It is a pretty special place! When you get there make sure you take your time. Nothing worse than having to rush through amazing places.

    Come to Australia: where everything is trying to eat you. That croc and the spiders would be enough for me but you guys seem happy to glide through it!!? The drone is great for those inaccessible places too - well done with that. And the music choices are smooth too. For some of those off road sections I would have used the 1812 Overture or the ride of the Valkyries!!!X

    • @PatandJele
      @PatandJele  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Haha yup that's Australia. Once you get here you quickly shrug it off though, except for the crocodiles, they are serious. Sadly we are limited in the music we can use through the license that we hold, so some things aren't available.
