- We felt it was about time to share a bit about who we are and where we have come from. Have a watch, it might surprise you! :)
Awesome video guys! One of your best. Love following your antics, love your content… all your hard work has brought tonnes of viewing pleasure and inspiration to many. Keep on living the dream 👍🏻😀
Thanks heaps Craig…🙌🏼😁
Loved to hear your stories, bloody brave couple and super gutsy to say the least. Have only just picked up on your channel (through your introducing to so many amazing folk). The whole gig is an absolute pleasure to watch and you kids are gold. I hope your dreams and thoughts come through for you. I look forward to running into you guys soon. You seriously a an inspirational couple, nice to here that your going to hang in! John E
Thanks so much John! We just love meeting people and thought it was about time we shared how great that part of this life is! 😁😁😁
As always love your work! Your honesty, transparency, vulnerability and humbleness is truly inspiring! Thank you for sharing your story with us… I did stumble across one of your first TH-cam videos a few weeks ago…you both have every right to be so super proud of how far you have you travelled and what you have achieved! Can’t wait to see where your journey takes you both.
Thanks so much!! Welcome to our platform 😁🙏🏼
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown your videos and socials have not only helped us with our van build but kept us motivated whilst we patiently wait ….
Happy birthday Miriam! You guys rock! I watch all you videos, I can understand your old business struggles! I’m based in S.A travelled most of the coast! Love your videos, opens up my eyes to spots I haven’t seen! All the best! 👍
Thanks so much Chris! It’s just stunning here … just a shame we missed so many spots because of the weather 😩 We we’re meant to be filming again today, but it’s horrible outside! Oh well - gives me time to edit 😁👍🏼
Good on you Miriam on supporting Chris during his difficult period. Keep up the great adventures!!💕
Thanks Victoria ☺️ Tough times make you stronger, right? 🤍🤍
Thank you for having the courage to share your story’s.
You guys kept us sane during the Victorian lockdowns with your antics.
You both should be very proud of what you have achieved.
I had a look at some of your older vids tonight as suggested, it was amazing to see the difference and how far you’ve come. . Gives hope and encouragement to us small channels. I for one am going to try much harder to make better content. Anyone who thinks what your doing is easy has never made a “edited” TH-cam vid.
Well done, I’ve said it before, keep em coming! 👍🏼
Thank you! 🙏🏼 And I’m a little embarrassed that you watched the old stuff … but - as you said, it shows how far we’ve come 😅 When we stopped filming on the phone and Gopro it certainly made a difference!
So friggen glad you guys didn't quit!!
Really love this episode. So so real.
I am a new subscriber and follower. But absolutely loving the content. I will definitely be going back and watching your older stuff too.
Keep being yourself guys!!
Haha thanks so much Josh! 😁🤙🏼
Love the variety of the episodes we think that is the greatest point of difference and puts you ahead of the rest and are so down to earth . Thank you for all your hard work . Look after yourselves and keep doing what you love.
Thank you so much ☺️ We share what we love, and meeting people is such a huge part of this! 🤍
Happy birthday Miriam. Thanks to both of you for sharing your personal lives and it certainly answered lots of questions for many of your followers. Safe travels.
Thanks so much Sue! 😁
Absolutely great episode. It’s great to know the back ground. Congratulations on what you have achieved and good luck with the adventures.
Thanks so much Scott! 😁🙏🏼
That was Fantastic Miriam n Chris ... thanks for the background and for sharing personal stuff ... awe inspiring ... thanks
You’re very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it 😁😁
Awesome vid guys really enjoyed the walk down memory lane. Really appreciate you sharing and love your videos. Keep up the great work and love following your journey’s! Happy birthday for yesterday 🥂🎂🥂🎂
Thanks so much Tracey!! 😁🤍🙏🏼
I’m living vicariously through you guys with a hope to one day be able to travel around with my family! Love your adventures!🍻
Our advice is to stop hoping and start planning! 😁 And thanks so much for watching 🙏🏼☺️
Great vid guys. It's really good that you are showing people that it aint all sunsets and bloody rainbows. As an American truck lover - more power to ya!! Placed a sneaky order myself a couple of weeks ago 😉
The last couple of years have taught us that the time is now and there's no point waiting for the 'right time'. Take the opportunity when it presents itself - well said and nice spot 🤙🏼
This is so true - the time is now!! 😁😁 And it’s more storms and natural disasters than sunshine and rainbows 😆
Loved hearing the back story guys. Thank you for sharing some of your personal stories. You both rock, keeping being yourselves and smashing your life goals. Cannot wait for the next vid. X
Inc thanks so much Sherene ❤️❤️❤️
What a story and what a great experience love it being so open and honest. Sorry for your loss ❤. I also have move around a bit. Thank you very much for sharing blend families do rock.
Thanks Chris 🙏🏼 And you’re very welcome. Life is what you make it, right? Moving around can be a good thing if you want it to be! 😁
Loving your videos. Thank you for encouraging others.. we aren’t there just yet.. but can’t wait til we are. We are loving the high energy of your videos.
Happy birthday Miriam 🎁🎈🥳
Thanks so much Melinda!! 😁🙏🏼
Great video guys!
My princess and I love watching your content and we were so honoured that you shared your personal stories with us. Really looking forward to meeting you one day.
Keep smiling and loving life.
Lastly, it’s nice to know someone else drinks Bighead beers (when you can find them) no carb beer for the win!
Thanks so much Shane! We love getting to know people and thought it was about to we let you get to know a bit more about us 😁 And Bighead for the win!! 🍺
I've liked you guys from the start but much more respect now I know your background.
I'm also in shop fitting business and I know the stress you went through.
Fantastic to see you strong and still travelling.
Mad life and full respect.
Ps. Happy 21st birthday Merriam,
Sam thanks for putting me on to A.D.U.
I love there videos....
Thanks heaps Sam - you’ve been interacting with us from the start too which is awesome - we love that! Shop fitting is a tough gig … respect to you! 👊🏼
Fricken awesome video guys. Love the share and honesty that you guys show. Thanks for keeping everything real.
Makes for a nice change👍
Thanks Chris! That means a lot 😁
Thanks, a great concise background run down of ADU. Keep it up! Growing up in Canada, love the ‘American’ trucks, looking forward to a detailed run down of the Chevy.
Thanks John! 😁🙌🏼
Hi there, thanks for this video, watching you two keeps me going these days, all the best to you and happy travels. 😊
Thanks so much - that means a lot to us! ☺️🙏🏼
great explanation video ! you certainly set the stage with this epic location! you guys are awesome!! keep up the great work! can't wait to see your future endeavors!
Thanks Brent! 😁🙌🏼
Great “10 questions with ADU NOT” thanks for filling us in. We really enjoyed it. I think we’ve seen all your videos and keep looking for more.. We are heading to SA next week and will be looking out for you, SPOTTO. Continue to have fun. Travel safe. Cheers
Thanks so much Marie 😁 Next video drops today at 3:00! 🙌🏼 We might cross paths - we are heading to Victoria soon!
Thanks for the insight, impressed with the audio whilst sitting on the rock! Very clear. 👍 safe travels 🌴
Thank you! Audio is by far the hardest part of editing 😅
Good episode. Great to hear you have walked away from things that were causing you stress. I particularly love your 10 questions with ADU. Oh and I love the "Destinations unknown" song. I have used it on some of our home movies :-). Love that you have gone all electric in the van. I would love to but not in our current van its too small. Keep up the good work. And by the way, thanks for sharing you didn't need to but I feel like we know you now.
Thanks so much for your support! 🙏🏼 It’s a great song hey … 😆🙌🏼
My wife and I are travelling around Oz ourselves. I'm in awe of the work you both do. Personally, I'd like to say its pretty gutsy what you have both done with this vid. It's wonderful in a sense that you are engaging with us and I do feel that I know and understand you both just that little more. Thank you so much for sharing. I hope one day we can catch up and have a chat ( of course when the caravan door is open :) )
Thanks so much Jim - and yes, it wasn’t the easiest video to make! 😅 We’d love to have a chat with you one day and hear your travel stories! 😁
Great video guys, been loving your videos. Both of you are alway happy and produce great content. Best of luck in your journey, ADU deserves big things 👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks so much - that means a lot! 😁🙏🏼
What a fascinating video on you two, down to earth and telling us some of your secrets. Thanks for the insight and I'm glad most if not all the bad things are behind you. Love the travels you two are doing. But don't forget to take time out for yourselves I'm sure your band of followers wouldn't mind if you went off line for a week or two to recharge the batteries. 🤙👍
Thanks Dave 😁 Sadly we can’t go offline for a week or two as the ‘algorithms’ don’t like it - then they stop showing the content and everything goes backwards. We just push on and try and find a balance - it’s just hard at the moment as we have so much on our plate. All good though! I’m actually at this moment trying to find time to edit the next episode 😅
Love your honesty, we are taking a short break and doing a house sit before we pick up our new van and tow rig, because this life is hard not to love.
Hope we see you guys out there someday, cheers for the encouragement and motivation, happy travels.
How exciting! New set ups are so much fun 😁 And yes - let’s hope we cross paths one day 🙏🏼
You guys said it so well, give 100% you get it back. I did an Ultimate Europe Contiki tour back in 2001 by myself and our daily bus wake-up song was “you only get what you give” I’ve always held that song fondly and you guys epitomise it. Stay strong together. Hope to catch-up at Rosehill or as you pass by Newcastle on your way north. Checkout the Barringtons on your way through. 👌👍🤠
What a great wake up song!! Super motivational 😁 Thanks for your support - it means a lot! Hope we see you at the show 🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing how you guys got to were you are today safe travels and keep the great vids coming
Thanks so much! 😁🙏🏼
Love your work guys ! We love watching your vids …. Thanks !🙏
Thanks so much 😁🙏🏼
You guys are so inspirational ❤ We have just purchased our hybrid off road caravan and are starting to do small trips.. I'm 73 and a sole trader. Both my wife and my self are only working part time now. Getting the van & and my old 2011 COLORADO ready to go up north in May. Keep up the good work guys. Bless you both 😊❤👍🙏
Thanks so much William and congrats on your van purchase! I’m sure you are going to love your time on the road - It’s addictive! 😁
Great to hear your background and Glad you are enjoying our state.! We could live in Streaky Bay. Don't forget to do the two loop trips out from there. Lots of things to see. Also great to see you are so approachable. Keep up the great work. 👍
Thanks Lee! We are actually back on the Fleurieu now. Our TH-cam is about a month or so behind where we are due to how long it takes to edit each episode😆 For up to date stuff - check out Instagram & Facebook stories 🙌🏼
Wow. This episode. Thanks for sharing you stories and wow what stories they are
You guys are just the bees knees. I've been following for about 6 months and just love how interactive and fun loving you both are.
I've even done some of your workouts that you've filmed on location thinking they will be my go to travelling.
Keep doin your thing so we can keep following.
Thanks so much Lee!! That’s means a lot 😁 The workouts are a touchy subject for us - I (Miriam) want to do more but Chris won’t let me 😭 lol. I do have a whole bunch on my mimfit page though for people who subscribe if that helps 🤍 www.mimfit.net/ Stay safe and happy travels!
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown yeh I get it Chris, that little woman of yours is already so busy. Miriam, I will check out your mimfit.
Good to find out more about you guys I've been following you for about a year and have enjoyed every video look forward to seeing more
Thanks so much Ron 😁🙏🏼
The way you guys met (and the short period before you started living together!) is spookily similar to my wife and I (we also met on RSVP)! We also have a blended family of 4 children. We retire in 4 weeks and are just awaiting our new van and car before we head off out on the road permanently (or for as long as possible). We can't wait! Awesome video you two!
Oh wow - what a coincidence! 😁 Good luck with your new van - I’m sure you will love it!
We are in WA and agree things have been a bit locked down and now we are opening up we will sling shop straight over the Nullabor. Hope you will get here one day and like every state WA has plenty to enjoy. Thanks for the video it is nice to see who you are as people. We will say hello if we see you over east this year. Thanks.
thank you!! We do hope to get there one day … ☺️
I like the way you are both quite raw in this video and get to know a lot more about you and your backgrounds. Great job!
Thank you - that means a lot 😁
Great video guys! Looking forward to possibly seeing a nutrition/supplement/keto/daily keto menu etc. video 😀 We are from the Sunshine Coast and are traveling ourselves, and hope to see you on the road somewhere and have a drink and a chat with you both. Thanks for sharing your experience with us! 👍🏼
Thanks Jennie…yes we will have to do a video soon. See you on the road ❤️
You guys are doing amazing and it shows how hard you have worked and still work to have the lifestyle you have. That's the motivation and even for those that wont get that lifestyle they can still live it watching. Love you guys and keep doing what your doing. Love seeing the bad bits aswell as the good too as that's what being human is rather then being instafamous like some just try to be..!
Thanks so much Lance. Really appreciate it mate. Happy Friday 🤙🏼
Great video-just started watching you after seeing you with Sarah & Keelan. Love your work. Congrats on a polished product. Cheers
Thanks so much Peter! We actually just got off the phone with S&K a few minutes ago! 😁😁
Absolutely love the vid guys and the pure honesty on your life story. Keep living the dream you guys give us hope🍻🏆
Oh, thank you! That means a lot ☺️
Thanks guys for a bloody good vid. Love watching you on your adventures so keep up the good work and maybe sometime soon we may bump into you and have a few beers 🍻
Thank you 🙏🏼 And yes … it would be great to bump into each other and have a 🍺 or three 😁
Great Story Guys. I watch one of your previous videos when the kids were very briefly mentioned. It was great to hear the story of how you got to where you are. Perth is/was a problem, so was QLD, my car was stuck there for 5 months when they closed the border. Its been an unusual 2 years for the world, I wouldn't hold a grudge, once we are open again just go back to your life and enjoy all that Australia has to offer. :)
Thanks Paul! 🙏🏼😁
Great Vid, luv the background story. Look forward to continuing to watch the travels, cheers 🥂🍻
Cheers Rob…appreciate it mate
Great episode guys, It was good to hear your story with both the good and bad bits 👍
Thank you 😁🙏🏼
Great video guys .. nice to get to know how it all started . We currently have a 13 and 15 year old so few more years and we hope to be travelling . Understand your stance on WA but hopefully you get over here one day so we can meet you guys and it really has some beautiful places ..
Not long now - how exciting for you guys!! 😍 And of course, we’d love to get to WA and meet our followers and see how amazing we know it is. Sadly though, your premier has other ideas and doesn’t want any ‘foreigners’ to cross over 😞 We would have been coming over in a few months and staying 12-24 months - but, well, we’ve been locked out along with the rest of Australia 😢
As someone looking to get into the touring scene in the not too distant future, I stumbled across this video and watched it from start to finish with great interest. More than anything, I really appreciated the honesty and openness about your lives in this video.
Just ‘liked’ and ‘subscribed’ to your channel now ... cheers.
Thanks so much Rich and welcome to the ADU CREW! 😁🙌🏼
Thanks for sharing All the best to you both. The videos are great, and I agree with your comments about WA
Thanks Steve 😁 That means a lot 🙏🏼
OMG! Four videos back or so, when you were in the rock pools I was thinking to myself how much hard work all this filming must be for you guys.
I know this is an old vid but I found you guys about 3 weeks ago and have watched every single vid you have posted, right back to the kids trying some lemon drink 😂🤣 Charlie’s surfing and EM’s birthday get away.
I have to say your content is awsm and if people watch like I do I had already worked out how many kids, tattoos, ages and where you were both from along with most of the other info you have shared here.
I always pay attention to the details 🫣
Anyways I’m onto the next vid now. Can’t wait to catch up to the newest vids and interact more! ❤
Oh wow! That’s a LOT of watching 😅 Thank you so much for your support - I can’t believe you watched all the way back 🤣 I haven’t deleted those old ones because it’s fun to look back and see how much has changed 😁 Love that you pay attention to detail - I’m the same! Thanks again - it means so much to us 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great open and honest episode and put some of those rumours it bed once and for all. Happy to see you come out the other side a stronger couple and please keep doing what your doing, brings a smile to the rest of us. Shame about WA as you are missing out on so many great people and place to see but I do understand. Look forward to the next one.
Thanks for your support Mike 😁🙏🏼 We do hope to see WA one day, but a lot needs to change first! 🤙🏼
This was great to learn more about you guys!
I love how down to earth you guys are and it's great to hear back story of how you came to be/your child hood.
I can relate to Chris's struggles with work stress. I finished school in 2018 as a very depressed and lost teenager. All I wanted to do was travel (and that's still all I want to do) but everyone said I was to young or that I needed lots of money to travel etc etc.
But after a year of work I was at breaking point. Then my patrols piston rings went on my way to Uluru and my partner at the time left me on the same day. So I was faced with giving up or doing something bold. I did something bold obviously lol. I hitch hiked with nothing but my camp stove some food and my swag from Kulgera to Uluru and surrounds then all the way back down to Adelaide where I flew to Melbourne. I bit the bullet quit my job where I was working bought a cheap caravan went back to mums to work at Kfc (Best job ever when your mates are the managers and your a loose unit .) I built up some savings bought the ute I was borrowing off a mate and had 2K in savings when I left.
That was 2 and a half years ago and it's honestly the best decision iv ever made! And I'm glad I left because Covid hit a month later!
It was bold and it was scary since I knew nothing about caravaning and very little about 4wding but I'm doing it.
You guys put so much effort into ADU it's incredible. A lot of people think it's easy to become stars but it's really not.
I know exactly what you mean by it's hard work creating videos. I use to love and enjoy make Hpv racing videos. However 6-24hours of racing and the videos would take a number of days to make and they wernt any where near as good as your videos!
In the end I lost that passion for making the videos. It became a chore it became a job but with no income lol. I tried some travel videos but you have to be consistently posting to earn an income from them. I'm happy just to make them when ever I feel like it but more often then not I'm working on my own bussines. As Miriam said its like 20 hour days. 7-5 at work then I'll often be up till 10 or later working on the website. Not quite 20h but feels like it.
I do like ur idea of spliting 3/4 split for work/bussines and might do something like that because I complelty agree that you won't get much out of anything unless you put your 100% into it!
Anyway I'm rambling on cause I'm a couple drinks in lol but would be keen to meet up with you guys and the rig. Safe travels. 🤟🏼👌
P.S going to check out some of those early YT videos you recommended. 🤣
Oh wow … firstly I want to know what shocking old videos you went back to watch 🤣🤣🤣 And congrats on getting out there and just doing it. You only live under and sometimes, quite often most of the time, the hardest decisions are the best and most incredibly life changing ones! Hang in there and if you’re enjoying what you’re doing … keep on doing it! 😁🤙🏼
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown Most of them lol. Editing has come a long way!
WOW great vid , was really good to get to know you both a little better . Great job the both of you keep up the good work ! PS dont be to rash on your decision about not coming out west I think you will find it will blow the east out of the water ..
Oh, we’ve always wanted to see WA, we just feel it’s so very wrong what’s going on with the lies and false hopes given to se many people. It’s hurt so many of our friends/followers/fellow travelers financially and emotionally and has left a very bad taste in our mouth 😔
Hey guys thanks heaps for the raw words you guys ROCK.
To be that open to the world shows who you guys really are.
Thanks for all your hard work it is really appreciated
Thanks Kyle - that means a lot 😁🙏🏼
Well done guys. We've been watching you for a good while now. We leave for SA mid April following a lot of your adventures. Keep up the great adventures & respect all your hard work re.youtube. stay safe. Respect Moira.
Thanks so much Moira!! 😁🙏🏼
Much respect to you both, the wife and i are in the planning stage for our own adventures in the future, will definitely try and meet u in sydney at the show where i plan 9n putting an order in on a van, love your vids, cheers.
Thanks Jeff! 🙏🏼 Make sure you come and see us for sure - we can personally sell you a van 😅
Love the vids guys. Keep them coming!
Thank you! And we have no plans on stopping 😁😁
Great video guys!! Great to learn about your backgrounds…
Thanks Jared
Just watched this video of yours. First time viewer. Found it honest and refreshing. Have subscribed today too.
Thanks Michelle and welcome to our channel! ☺️🙏🏼🤍
Can’t wait for u to show us some QLD destinations! We r heading there Nov. and hopefully see u Rosehill :)
We have a Queensland playlist here on TH-cam with videos from before we went full time if you’d like to check them out 😁
Icing on the cake 💙
Love you guys, only found this channel a couple of months ago, enjoying it muchly 😁 👍
Thank so much! 😁🙏🏼
Love your story, love your banter, I have said this before but will say it again, so jealous. You guys rock.
Haha thanks Linden 😁
Very nice video about your journey, you are doing a great job, looking forward to seeing you both again at the Titanium weekend at the end of March. 🍺🍺🍷🍷
Can’t wait to see you there! It’s going to be an epic weekend 😁
thanks for talking us thro your journey
and HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIRIAM
You’re welcome and thank you! 😁🙏🏼
Thanks for the updates just keep being you two because that's what we love I think what you do is amazing and so easy lol the time you put is amazing but remember keep enjoying it which would be hard some days, and you do have to take time off with no cameras.
Cheers and beer's
Thanks so much David!! Yep you are so right…sometimes we just need to put the cameras, computers and phones down to sit back and enjoy it. After all that’s why we started doing what we do 🙌🏼😁
Your doing what I would love to do hopefully later this year
I have severe mental health issues and I find camping or just traveling without a time frame clears my mind
Camping and getting away is great for clearing the mind… keep working towards it. It’s so worth it in the long run ☺️
You have a dedicated follower from BC, Canada. Both fit young and interesting. I worked in Bass Straits in 1973 and loved it.
Thanks so much Gary! That means a lot. And that’s what’s ago - seems like it might be time for a return visit 😁
We met Chris when we were camping at Perlubie Beach over the Christmas period, my husband was lusting over your truck and then you came down and helped with some people that had got bogged in the sand.... we shared a laugh over that and the number of people coming down with 2WD's onto the beach. Since then I have followed your socials and followed your story! Thanks for the videos, and all the content - love following you guys!
Thanks Kelly! So glad to have you in our TH-cam crew 🙌🏼 Yes, Perlubie was
highly entertaining - so many people got bogged! 😆
I dont know why I love this channel so much from the states. Maybe I wish I could travel Australia. Great content.
Haha - thank you! Australia is definitely worth taking the time to explore ‘by land’ … we love showcasing it to the world! Thanks so much for watching ☺️🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing your story. I got a little emotional watching strangely enough! I started following your channel when I made the decision to buy a caravan. Having no clue about what to buy, you guys convinced me that a Titanium van was the way to go. My partner and I love camping and travelling and we never thought we would own a caravan, but after getting caught in the 2019/20 bushfires we decided a caravan would be a better option than our old trailer load of tents and gear. Which was fun but took forever to set up and even longer to pack up. Anyway just wanted to say thanks for your videos, I'm now the proud owner of a Titanium Hardcore van and love it! Funnily my partner and I also met on RSVP and she speaks fluent Spanish too haha. Thanks for sharing your story. 👍🙂
Oh wow!! Such similarities! I really hope we can meet up on the road one day 😁 Congratulations on your new Titanium, I’m guessing you’re already in love with it 🙌🏼
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown yes absolutely love it, living in it semi full time too, so glad we went with the Titanium. Heading off again next week for the long weekend not sure where yet haha. Bush or beach? Something with both hopefully 🙂
Oh and yes it would definitely be fun to run into you guys on the road oneday! 😄
Beach or bush - both are amazing!! 😁
Thanks for sharing guys. It’s nice to get to know you a bit more. Love what you guys are doing. I’m from WA and totally understand your hesitation about coming here. It’s a crap situation all round with our dictator calling the shots. The only thing I will say though is that there are so many epic spots to visit in WA that you will miss out on just for the sake of making a point. But I totally respect the way you feel.
Thanks Graham! Yes, we know how amazing WA is. We were meant to be heading there for 12-24 months this year! Oh well, luckily the rest of Australia still has plenty to offer! And, if WA decide to play nice we would love to head over there one day 😁
Hi Chris and Miriam, Another great video with excellent background information. Do you know how many people are attending the Titanium rally next month? We are booked in and looking forward to meeting Titanium owners to get ideas for our upcoming van. Looking forward to chatting with everyone in Porepunkah.
Thanks Mark! 😁 To our knowledge over 80 have booked for the rally so far! It’s going to be next level amazing 🙌🏼
I’d love to see a video on how the composting toilet is going, tips on using it, cleaning, pros, cons, etc.
Yeah sure thing Carrin. We will do a video shortly on this 😁
This was great, thanks guys! :) Definitely inspiring! :)
You’re so welcome 😁
Thankyou for your story , It does answer lots of things , well done on everything so far , best wishes for a better year with your travels north . Stay well 👍👍
Thanks so much Rod 😁🙏🏼
That was a great explanation off your journey. As for being hard work producing your content I believe you totally, the problem you have is that you make it look so easy and so much fun. Keep up the great work you are both very inspiring 👏
Haha - I know right?! I should add all the sleepless nights, arguments, crap weather, technical failures and other fun stuff hey 😆
Thank you for sharing your story, so much respect for you both ❤️
We have been following you for a long time now and you guys are just awesome.🙌🏻😍❤️
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
You guys are awesome….big decisions made …keep up the good work….love it…
Thanks so much 😁🙏🏼
I really enjoy your experiences and candor.you are quite appealing people and such fun for a Virginia boy to watch.
Thanks so much Jim! 😁🙏🏼
its a hard to know how much personal stuff to share and what to keep private, I think with social media/youtube/instagram and what ever other platforms your on they expect more and more personal stuff to the point where its uncmfortable to share. To Me this would be hard to share and I thank you for being so open about it. I guess alot see what is displayed in the videos and they dont understand how much actual work (and it is work) goes into just 1, 30-40 minute show. Thank you for being so open and honest about it all, I really do appreciate it. Now lets get down to the nitty gritty stuff (hahaha) Im keen to see a video on the gear you use and programs to edit all your stuff because quite frankly its amazing and easy viewing. Love your work Guys
Thanks so much Robb! Yes, it was a hard video to film, but, we are open people and felt it wasn’t right just to share all the positive without the negative. We don’t want people to think it’s easy and give up everything to find out it’s not. In regards to editing etc we’ve decided not to do a video on that … but it’s basically Final Cut Pro, a combo of GH5, iPhone, GoPros and DJI drone plus years of figuring it all out 😅
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown whats a GH5 ?
Great vid you two, know the feeling of the stresses of running your own business. Totally agree with you about The clown in WA and Palletstacker in Qld. So out of touch thinking they have their own country.
Good on you both, you’ve done a great job of showing people this great country of ours. Also what is possible when you put your mind to it.
Thank you! Yes, it’s so wrong what’s happening in Australia right now … more people need to make a stand!
Goodness me I'm here on my couch resting after grandies visit and here you are telling me about Mauritius. My late parents were born there, so was I, and yes came to Melbourne but stayed in Melbourne. I'm now in my early 60s so I'm going to assume that I could be your parent's vintage. Maybe. Anyway, interesting video. My Aussie husband and I are doing a lot of travels now. Great video.
Oh wow!! That’s so cool 😁 Apparently Chris has heaps of relatives in Melbourne! 😅
Love the honesty guys! RSVP here as well! Married 11 years!
Hey I'd love to know the good the bad and the ugly of e Mountain bikes. Eg how to pack them...I'd love a box to put em in like yours though! Going great guns!🍻👍
Thanks you! And congrats in 11 years! Good old RSVP 😅 Chris is the eMTB expert - and we couldn’t find a good way to store them which is why these giant front boxes were created 😆 It’s the best thing!
Awesome video, my feelings exactly on WA Would love you to see places like Jundah, Windoorah, Innamincka etc in short far western Qld. Have fun always.
I think many people are discovering that WA isn’t the be all and end all and that the rest of Australia is just as beautiful and has just as much to offer ☺️
Hey guys living your travels 😊 Chris it is a small world. I grew up in thornlands on Bayside. Best place.
Sure is a small world! 😁😁
Almost didn't want to comment as i think of all the time you spend working on your videos and now I'm costing you precious time reading this and then probably replying, ha ha. Anyway thoroughly enjoyed watching, yet again and compliments on choosing the backdrop for this video rather than just sitting in front of your van ..... brilliant, and nice scripting having your companions float by.
Haha Frank! This is the best comment yet 😆😆 Yes, we spend many hours responding to comments - but we absolutely love it 🤍 Thanks for your support - it really means a lot. Abs by all means, please keep the comments coming! 🙌🏼
That is a very transparent video, now I feel like I really know the 2 people I watch all the time! I was wondering a bunch of things and now I know all the answers 😊 thanks for the honesty
Loved this video ❤️
OMG thanks you ❤️❤️❤️
Glad its all come together for you guys
Thanks buddy 🤙🏼
Thanks for your honesty, enjoy yourselves and take care on our roads.🍻
Thanks, will do!
Hi Guys
We watched this vid this afternoon & have to say we really enjoyed finding out where you both came from & your background 😊 Great story 😊 you deserve your lifestyle & success 😊 LUCKY hey 😅
Thank you so much - not many people understand what goes into it all! 😊🙏🏼
Awsome really makes us feel like we know you more and can relate to you
Thanks for sharing
You’re very welcome 😁
Nice ADU, I have been a follower for a long time and have wanted to know the full back story of your two. I'm a professional cameraman and work for myself. My wife and I, along with our youngest child hit the road full time in August this year in our 2nd Titanium van. Look forward to meeting you one day. And yes Jason is a legend.
Thanks so much Paul. And bloody pumped for you guys hitting the road 🙌🏼
Jason is an absolute legend hey. Such a great business and product 😁
Awesome insight and amazing to share so much about yourselves.
One question: where can I get that King cap? 😊
That Kings hats are from Mikes Shock Shop - send Mike an email saying you saw it here and he’ll know the one you’re talking about! mikesshocks.com/contact-us/ 😁
The best part about this whole story is your attitude about adapting to change. Covid hit, both your business were obviously extremely effected and instead of rolling over and winging you actually did something that has paid off!!!
Great spirit, great attitude and great outcome! Thanks for the good vibes team 🤙🏼
Thanks so much - resilience is such an important trait to have … and one that’s not easy to adopt 😅
Great video thanks for sharing your thoughts and life. I've been binge watching in bursts. Would love to make a 4 or 6 door F650 with a canopy on the back instead of a truck bed. Yes I'm American, that used to live in Texas, now in Florida. 🤠 🏄♂️ 🌊 🏄♀️
Let’s us know when you do! We have plans to bring our rig over to the US and show you guys how the Aussie do it! 😆
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown well that would be awesome. Your rig was done right!
How you could both do this to yourselves?!!
Sitting on that rock for 45mins like a BOSS!!😎
Enjoyed this video and can relate on many levels!
Inspiring backstory and lifestyle.
Haha … I was sitting on my thongs so it wasn’t that bad - it was a sharp rock though 🤣 thanks for your support 🙏🏼🥰
Good on you two very honest ,really enjoy your vids .
Travel safe. Cheers.
Thanks Gerard! 😁👍🏼
Remember luck is spelt WORK. A lot of people never know this. Great to hear your full story. Hope to meet on the road some day.
This is so very true! Thanks for your support 😁🙏🏼
