    Every episode.. my heart beats slower, my breathing more gentle, my head a little clearer. You're the Legend. Nice Billie, had the same one for 20 years.

    Thanks Scotty these videos bring back a lot of memories of my childhood I and some friends started doing this at about age 10, our swag would consist of a couple of old army blankets a billy an old worn out frying pan and an old tin mug some wire for snares a fishing rod and reel and a pocket knife some tea and a couple of potatoes maybe some bread maybe a can or 2 of baked beans and hope we caught a fish or two or snared a rabbit some times we'd go for 2 or 3 days usually there would be 4 or 5 of us or more and we had the time of our lives that was back in the 1950s and I have always camped like that only these days I sleep in the back of my old Landcruiser on a foam mattress and a sleeping bag I think at almost 73 years of age I've earned a little creature comfort .

    Really enjoyed learning about the “Swag” and thank you for sharing. From the U.S. so I was aware of the swag sleep system but the history was nice to hear. Great looking meals enjoyed amongst a beautiful setting.

    You should start a side channel where you make tutorials and bushtucker knownledge and stuff and call it Scotty’s Gone Talkabout. No joke that would actually be sick

    Pretty sure that’s a Wolf Spider. Poisonous but not lethal, but very painful bite and can make you sick. Anyway, great video as always mate, we need them in times like these when it’s relaxing to watch someone get into the outdoors when many can’t. Been following you for ages and love every video 👍.

    Hey Scotty.. You need to cover camp hygiene, when out there mate. Don't have to tell you, it is one of the main reason people get crook in the bush.

    Great video. The She-oaks and sound of the river take me back to the car camping trips we did in the Hunter valley when I was a kid back in the late 60's and early 70's. The road forded the river, there were hardly any bridges and there were rocky embankments near the fords where people just stopped and camped. And that was what we did, cooking on a campfire by the side of the road and all four of us sleeping in the back on the '67 Holden station wagon. Great memories. Cheers.

    It's strange that while we're destroying our world 🌎 there are people like you proving why we should treasure and save it. Every country has these stunning and beautiful forests where man and beast can live in harmony. Enjoy your adventures and hoping your viewers encourage friends to watch. Regards from South Africa, land of The Lion 🦁 King.

    A tip from my Granddad who went on the Wallaby in the 1930s, use a towel as your shoulder stap, much more comfortable than a leather strap. Although these days I take a swag when camping the swag is carried in the car. Great video, thanks

    Since I'm in the US I appreciate getting a bit of Australian history/lore with your videos.

    It's actually amazing to hear so many frogs in such a small area. Its a really great indicator of a pristine wilderness 👍

    Finally a Swagman video that actually talks about who they were and shows the kit. There's alot out but the makers go on with their outing...which is cool...but never go over their kit and stuff.

    Watching from the UK, I stumbled across you recently, I really enjoy your channel especially with the draconian measures we are all living with, great scenery and your enjoyment and enthusiasm comes through.

    You have no idea of the positive impact your videos have. All of us are dealing with our own troubles and your videos are a welcomed breakaway from the craziness in the world. Your calm traditional style brings me so much peace. Thank you Scotty👌

    The question is, do you want to do more swag camping? I'm here for the scenery and the way you present the adventure.

    Appreciating the Aesop bag, Scotty's looking after his skin. Good man.

    Side note: the German noun „Walz“ describes the years of travelling to complete your apprenticeship as a craftsman, usually with formalised clothing and a roll like a swagman.
