    A big congrats to the both of you, what an incredible journey. Over the last 5 years your followers have seen what they may never see in real life. please contact SBS to do a documentary on your travels, because the photography was amazing. Great to see the troopy survived. I will be 4x4 to remote surf breaks in Australia next year and I do hope we cross paths on your Australian travels. Thank you guys.

    Perth to Perth - is definitely a 'thing' now. However, China, Russia relations may delay others following in your footsteps.
    $400 to fill tank!!! The $100 Alps tunnel pass is value by comparison.
    For a moment there, I thought the trip was ending on 99 episodes. Troopy is like a pet. Glad it gets to come home in episode 100.

    • @TheWayOverland
      @TheWayOverland  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The tunnel is very convenient, though the pass we wanted to take is much more scenic!!
      Ha no, the OCD wouldn't let it finish on 99!

      @@TheWayOverland I drove a small RHD FWD Renault hatchback in July 1988 through an Alps tunnel. Traffic was heavy and slow and one lane each way. And there were 'windows' into steep valleys - air exchange perhaps. I figured if I broke down they would just push my car out a 'window' to keep traffic moving.
      I had tried to find a pass via back roads to avoid a 30 Swiss Franc year long motorway pass - I wanted to see Swiss country side on my way from Oxford, where I was staying while doing motorway repairs not far away, to Genoa.
      But back then it was paper maps and it was a hopeless task trying to go anywhere on unfamiliar roads. So, within an hour I had bought a pass. Forget what I paid for the tunnel.

      Cheers,
      We'd like to think it weighs heavier on the ups now! Well that's what we're focusing on anyway.
      Most of the shooting is on a Sony A7RIII - 16-35,70-200. We used an iPhone 12 Pro for a fair bit of these last episodes which would be good in isolation though when paired against the Sony it's clearly subpar.
      Editing is on Premiere, after 100 eps think we're actually starting to get the hang of it haha.

      We found 5th gear! We've lived and travelled in Western Europe previously, coupled with the prospect of having the Troopy home for an Aus summer was too good to miss so we pushed through.
