Beau , at sixty years old , some have called me a walking fool . Having traversed almost 70% of the great alpine trail , blisters where the small price for life clarity. Many great thoughts and ideas are developed by the rhythmic repartition of foot to ground. Oddly more the pain greater the gain , you appear to hold a similar philosophy..

Lol i also eat road food(and a lot of dumpster diving food) and i gotta say i rarely get sick. Ive been around people with strep throat for days n didnt get it. Did ya see his "side of the road wine" video, its great
Dude found a sleeping bag. He must save a shed of gp there should be more people like this. I’m not one of ‘em but I like the enthusiasm of the adventure and the cleaning up videos are truly inspiring. I hate the fake look at me picking up stuff on the beach and then dropping it off camera for like posted by other dickheads on TikTok and TH-cam. You’re the real deal and it’s amazing to see. Shame on the rest of us who don’t do enough for our planet and a better future.
I wonder. How many miles has Miles miled. How many smiles has Miles made smile. A crazy adventure. Some selfless acts. Beau Miles rules. And thats a fact.
TH-cam is barely interesting these days. Then a Beau film drops. I wait until I can sit back and savor it at the end of the day. Good on ya. Keep them coming.
I love the wisdom of, "the more keys you have the more complicated your life is" I have lived this idea for years but somehow there are always more keys - more complications.
I'm retired & now only have 3: house, car, & bike lock! More importantly, I spend most days gardening or hiking, biking, camping, & kayaking w/in an hour's drive from home in MI. Every day is full of adventure & discovery on the land!
@@mizotter I'm retired, too, but I think I still have the keys from my first office - a job I left in 1986! I don't think the building is even there now! There's something about keys that make you feel they are too important to ditch...or is that just me? 😄
I used to have all my keys and extra stuff all in a ball that still fit in my pocket Then one day I just randomly striped it down to: House key & work barn key on clip on my belt And single car key in my pocket (it's a key fob) I've never looked back
This reminds me of the one day I woke up and just decided I'd walk a bit. Ended up walking 68 KM from one town to the other. Don't regret that one bit. I can't walk anymore...
@@ArthurB26 No, probably because this is TH-cam comments. Here let me show ya... I once walked backwards 20 miles uphill to see my grandma and when I got there she wasn't home. Imagine that... Well it turns out my grandma had walked 20 miles uphill the opposite direction to see our grandpa. See, that's all possible but it's probably not true, see? See!?
Beau Miles is the only one that will understand me. I had to go ~124 km while I had nothing. No food, no water, no money, no place to sleep. Not even a phone...Just me and the road. But You can bet I have gratitude for everything I have. Thank you Beau!
The road has a way of making the simplest of things seem significant. The shade of a large tree is like heaven on a hot day on the road. You'll literally find yourself thanking the tree. The same tree means almost nothing under other circumstances; but it becomes sacred for one person.
Possibly the most fascinating part of this adventure is the fact that what is now a high-speed motorway, was once largely an unsealed highway, before which was a dirt track, something that was once pioneered by a man, on his two feet, with likely little more than the olden equivalent of discarded scraps on the roadside to satiate them.

Something about this made me feel like I was watching old TH-cam or Vimeo when people made documentaries for fun. I think it’s the editing, the audio, and sense of calm. Thanks for taking me on this little adventure while I’m stuck washing the dishes. I might be physically stuck, but at least my thoughts can be adventure. Cheers Beau.
The Commute was the first of your films I watched and, in no small part, it inspired me to get up and get out side. I started running regularly and completed my first half marathon that same year. I always wondered why the first walk wasn’t on TH-cam. Glad to have finally seen it! Keep up the excellent work Beau. Hope to see you in the UK one day 🤘

Ok. First of all. Im your subscriber for years and I have been rewatching your every video ones a year. Your storyline and filmmaking is on my top tier. Your mindset haven't change a bit throughout the years, at least that's what you portrayed in your short films. What worry me it's the fact you have a family and as your long admirer I have to say please please be careful with garbage ingestion. It might contain some real life bacteria that may cause you sick and you have a child and a wife. I do hope you don't mind me saying this, it's written from a personal experience and I don't want you to think I'm being rude. Stay well. Greetings from Europe, sLOVEnia.
I have been to Canada, the states so many times, never seen my surroundings like that in 2020. I still travel far and wide. "Walking 90 ks to work" gave me the awareness to discover more local places.
My grandfathers a hoarder and has about 20 years of Pepsi bottles under his house in various states. Some in the sun, some in the shade. Some only a few years and some are 20 years old. I can confirm that looked like 5-10 year old Pepsi in the sun. but it’s not unlikely it could have been a pee bottle either.
thanks beau for uploading this classic. your original commute vid (the one uploaded earlier) was inspiration for me to walk a shorter (8 hour) urban adventure. i can't say much but gratitude for being a bloody amazing inspiration.
Omg I love this. A man after my own heart. The craziest adventures are the best ones, I’m blessed to have grown up in the bush exploring wetlands x good on you
Marvelous storytelling as always Beau. Its amazing how much there is to find if you look, ive got a list of dozens of places I still havent explored and thats without even leaving the Adelaide area!
Me too! In fact, I think it was released before, and then removed. A few years ago, I searched and searched for it to watch it again, but couldn’t find it. I thought I was mad. Perhaps I am. Anyway, so pleased to see it again.
Ali Abdaal needs to meet Beau. He is someone who is studying, leading, and teaching others how to be happy and productive in life. Beau is the true manifestation of both of those things. We could all learn so much if those two ever got together to chat.
Joey Kelly. An Irish guy living in Germany did this many years ago. Went from north to south Germany just eating stuff from the road. He’s more of an competitive kind of guy but I think you would be a good combination.
Original video motivated me to walk to work (21km) which I’ve now done several times over the years including a full week of walking to work each day. Fortunately 20-22km is far more civilised than Beau’s adventure but agree 100% with all beau’s musings
"I've been here 35 years and I haven't done the 85km between here and work" was one of the most life changing quotes I've ever heard back when you posted it the first time.
@BeauMiles I noticed the book “The Story of the Human Body” in the video, which made me wonder what books you like to read. Would you be so kind as to share a list of your favorites?
Wow 1000 views in first 8 minutes and before anyone could have completed their 1st full view of the video. And only 2 condoms - so far. Keep on keeping on.
Videos like this is why TH-cam is amazing its 05.44am im in Glasgow scotland and iv come across this absolute wonder. Absolutely fantastic, we need more people like this. This is why the words a wonderful place. I'll be showing this to everyone Im fan. Cant binge tour other videos
“I would have eaten that even if I hadn’t just walked 90kms” 😂. Really enjoyed this one mate. People just don’t understand how something as simple was bringing your own shoes, or breaking the little rules you’ve made on the journey can totally change the adventure👌
I can’t believe this was shot in 2014. I recall watching it during Covid and it made me have a weird nostalgia for Australia (I’m American), but now maybe, it was nostalgia for 2014 unknowingly as I assumed it was shot within a year or two of viewing! Impressed that Beau had such quality film even back then before the real golden age of TH-cam.
I remember the first time I walked to work. I didn't have any other choice. I had to make it there. It was only 5 miles. But I ended up having to do it again, and again. 6 days a week for over a year. That was the first time, and I was 16 years old. As a bonified adult, I've had to walk much more than that on occasions to get to work or another place or importance. Transportation is a luxury people take for granted. I stopped hitching because of repetitive assaults. It's a damn humbling thing, having a drivers license, perfect driving record, and full coverage insurance, but not be able to drive yourself somewhere. Do this more than once, or twice or 187 times, I promise, your view will change even more.
@mohammadhussamashfaq4248 That's a pretty privileged thing for someone to say. What if my job only paid enough for food and rent, which actually I had to decide between food or rent most of the time back then. But hey, I hope you have a great bike bud.
Thanks for the inspiration. You did about 50km on the first day. The most I have ever done is around 15km one morning. I am impressed that you set off with so little.
I loved this. Beau Miles, you are one incredible human being. Your poor feet, (those disgusting slippers), and the junk you poured down your throat. A(bloody)mazing. Best thing I've seen in a long time.
Reminds me of walking home from uni 15ish years ago, Southampton to Leicester, 130 miles. Took all Easter weekend and it killed my knees. Wish I took a camera, but it 'wasnt in the rules'.😂 Good on ya.
Thought I'd give you 1000 likes but they only allow you one. Anyways a HUGE thumbs up to you Beau. IM 66 yrs oldrerty much similar to some fellas had to back when..Except they would have had a packed lunch etc on you Baue
This is the best video I’ve seen this year, you are the epitome of a modern swagman. In the old days you could walk,work and drink. The Australian spirit is strong. Great job mate
It's not the distance or the adventures that surprises me, its Beau's immune system...
Idk how this man is still alive honestly, truly amazing
edit: but still not immune to salmonella
@@xXJAng3lXxx at this point he's fortified his immune system so well he can't die.

What amazes me the most is your lack of disgust of anything.
There is nothing to be proud of
What about to be alive ?@@QuadDamage-tt7sj
I never thought I’d watch a video of a guy drinking piss out of a bottle on the side of the road and still be inspired. What a time to be alive.
Drinking that Pepsi Piss Bottle was the bravest thing I have ever seen
Bravest thing Ive ever seen, 50/50 that was a bottle of urine
My vote is for urine. That was way too see-through to be Pepsi. So gross, Beau!
100 piss
Good tasting piss??
Cola's do turn yellow when in the sun for a couple of days, but I still wouldn't have drank it.
Imagine the strength of this man’s gut micro biome.
"maybe a few bites" and then shove the entire apple in his mouth
Ya cus that “Pepsi” looked like pee😊
25:32 and yet, the unhealthiest thing he ate turned out to be the sandwiches at the office
you don't need a microsope to watch his microbiota flex.

Omg I love this. A man after my own heart. The craziest adventures are the best ones, I’m blessed to have grown up in the bush exploring wetlands x good on you
This is one of the most ballsey things I've seen, awesome work mate
Marvelous storytelling as always Beau. Its amazing how much there is to find if you look, ive got a list of dozens of places I still havent explored and thats without even leaving the Adelaide area!
Couldn’t have been better timing for a Beau Miles upload, after a pretty blah couple of days. On ya mate.
You're, by far, my favourite TH-camr, Beau. Thanks for your work and humour and inspiration
SO glad you decided to release this! I was waiting YEARS to watch it!!
Me too! In fact, I think it was released before, and then removed.
A few years ago, I searched and searched for it to watch it again, but couldn’t find it. I thought I was mad. Perhaps I am. Anyway, so pleased to see it again.
Definitely changed your life mate exposing rarest foods… and arriving work exhausted 😂. Including all the useful foraged world junk.
Bit of a struggle watching without gagging as Beau fuels up with who knows what.
Ali Abdaal needs to meet Beau. He is someone who is studying, leading, and teaching others how to be happy and productive in life. Beau is the true manifestation of both of those things. We could all learn so much if those two ever got together to chat.
Hope you're having a good weekend. Always enjoying your videos thanks 🤙
I could only imagine what kind of great movie this guy could make .i hope his bank balance doing well what a guy what a guy 👌
it's never a bad day when Beau uploads
Joey Kelly. An Irish guy living in Germany did this many years ago. Went from north to south Germany just eating stuff from the road. He’s more of an competitive kind of guy but I think you would be a good combination.
Original video motivated me to walk to work (21km) which I’ve now done several times over the years including a full week of walking to work each day. Fortunately 20-22km is far more civilised than Beau’s adventure but agree 100% with all beau’s musings
"I've been here 35 years and I haven't done the 85km between here and work" was one of the most life changing quotes I've ever heard back when you posted it the first time.
@BeauMiles I noticed the book “The Story of the Human Body” in the video, which made me wonder what books you like to read. Would you be so kind as to share a list of your favorites?
Hands down one of the most under appreciated channels on TH-cam! And it's been that way for a few years now. Your the Man Bo!!
Wow 1000 views in first 8 minutes and before anyone could have completed their 1st full view of the video. And only 2 condoms - so far. Keep on keeping on.
Videos like this is why TH-cam is amazing its 05.44am im in Glasgow scotland and iv come across this absolute wonder. Absolutely fantastic, we need more people like this. This is why the words a wonderful place. I'll be showing this to everyone Im fan. Cant binge tour other videos
Eco system in the uggs? Beau, the eco system you have in your iron guts is more impressive!
Sidenote: we can only dream of those fuel prices now.
“I would have eaten that even if I hadn’t just walked 90kms” 😂. Really enjoyed this one mate. People just don’t understand how something as simple was bringing your own shoes, or breaking the little rules you’ve made on the journey can totally change the adventure👌
I can’t believe this was shot in 2014. I recall watching it during Covid and it made me have a weird nostalgia for Australia (I’m American), but now maybe, it was nostalgia for 2014 unknowingly as I assumed it was shot within a year or two of viewing!
Impressed that Beau had such quality film even back then before the real golden age of TH-cam.
Awesome. I moved from Yorkshire UK to Los Angeles 9 years ago and i really miss walking to do regular things. Love this adventure 👏
I remember the first time I walked to work. I didn't have any other choice. I had to make it there. It was only 5 miles. But I ended up having to do it again, and again. 6 days a week for over a year. That was the first time, and I was 16 years old.
As a bonified adult, I've had to walk much more than that on occasions to get to work or another place or importance. Transportation is a luxury people take for granted. I stopped hitching because of repetitive assaults.
It's a damn humbling thing, having a drivers license, perfect driving record, and full coverage insurance, but not be able to drive yourself somewhere.
Do this more than once, or twice or 187 times, I promise, your view will change even more.
Ain’t that the truth. Modern society is drowning in ‘comfort’. Never hurts to suffer or go back to basics to appreciate what we have.
@mohammadhussamashfaq4248 That's a pretty privileged thing for someone to say. What if my job only paid enough for food and rent, which actually I had to decide between food or rent most of the time back then. But hey, I hope you have a great bike bud.
@mohammadhussamashfaq4248 it's too bad your mom and I couldn't stay together, I would have been glad to teach you
Thanks Beau, 10yrs later, helps a lot!
you legend - Fabulously Feral
Thanks for the inspiration. You did about 50km on the first day. The most I have ever done is around 15km one morning. I am impressed that you set off with so little.
Looking forward to the movie where you walk back home.
40 seconds in and im already hooked. This inspires me to want to make a youtube channel that is essentially my philosophical dissertation on life
Do it
Legend you are beau
Refreshingly new. Adventures all around us but we don't see them or take them. Thanks.

I loved this. Beau Miles, you are one incredible human being. Your poor feet, (those disgusting slippers), and the junk you poured down your throat. A(bloody)mazing. Best thing I've seen in a long time.
Drinking bush sauce was certainly a choice
Oh... just got to the.. soda
It’s amazing how it feels so normal to walk down the highway and live off whatever is on the side of the road now. Love it Beau. Inspirational.
Reminds me of walking home from uni 15ish years ago, Southampton to Leicester, 130 miles.
Took all Easter weekend and it killed my knees. Wish I took a camera, but it 'wasnt in the rules'.😂
Good on ya.
Thought I'd give you 1000 likes but they only allow you one. Anyways a HUGE thumbs up to you Beau. IM 66 yrs oldrerty much similar to some fellas had to back when..Except they would have had a packed lunch etc on you Baue
I think what hurt 2024 me the most was seeing unleaded for $1.39 :(
lol you're not wrong
This is the best video I’ve seen this year, you are the epitome of a modern swagman. In the old days you could walk,work and drink. The Australian spirit is strong. Great job mate
