Thanks Mike for the message! Was fortunate enough to be back there this year but very different to last year in terms of weather - this year was typical Manx weather so lots of delays and shifting of schedules but still incredible

@@MariusRobertsProductions That’s great Marius!! Well done! I was keeping an eye on the results, and it looked like it was a good one despite the weather setbacks…and you can say you were a part of witnessing history being made as Michael Dunlop broke his Uncle Joey’s record! Awesome stuff!

Firstly, in relation to this video, we stayed at a mate of mines place so I certainly wasn’t ‘paid’ in any way for the story I told or the experiences I shared. But let’s move onto what is really bothering you - people being paid to overland. When you are on your trip, do you document your experiences? I often pop away for a weekend camp and that is a genuine break for me because I don’t take my gear & I am under zero pressure to film anything - I love it because its proper downtime for me. Having said that, it doesn’t mean I don’t love my 32 day epic roadtrips - they are amazing and I get to meet incredible people, share stories and hopefully inspire or encourage other people to do the same or visit the places we went. Now I would love to be absolutely loaded so that I could just travel, but I am not and that’s why I have partners who make that possible for me. In no way, shape or form do they have any influence in what I say or the story I tell - that’s a non negotiable for me. I don’t watch what other people do on UA-cam - not interested really. Broadcasting has been my career for 25 years, it’s what I do, it’s what I love - the overlanding is another extension of that! I may only be on the road for 32 days but these adventures I undertake, take up 6 months of my life - I don’t make money from this, I simply cover my hard costs while juggling my other production projects. Perhaps this will help you understand things a little differently…

Thanks so much Gert for the kind words and support! Really loved putting this season together - such beautiful locations and people! Season 3 will be around October again

Thanks for all the kind words and support throughout the series - it really means a lot! Well, am working on a short trip (4-6 days) thats people can join us on in September 😊

@@MariusRobertsProductions That sounds like a plan. Please keep me posted😃

Thank you so much! Such a damn cool message 😊 Busy planning Season 3 - will definitely be on the road again this year

Thanks so much Hannelie - glad you enjoyed it and thank you for the support and for watching! Mmmm me and my throne - how could I not!

Thanks so much for the kind words! For sure your Polo would be good for the tar roads - mates of mine do amazing classic car rides in Lesotho because the roads and scenery are just spectacular! Obviously check your routing and make sure your trip is on the main tar roads because you definitely don't want to be on a beautiful road that ends in dirt!!!!

Thanks so much! Two in two days - the universe trying to tell me something? haha

Thank you so much for the kind words and the support - super cool! Honestly, I don’t know how other people tell their stories - for me it can only be authentic! If my mates watch, they must come away going thats 💯 Marius - that’s always been my yard stick when I started out in TV. Lesotho was amazing - definitely going back and like you, would love to see it in winter BUT I think that place can bite you if you not experienced or traveling alone - the beauty lies in its rawness.

Heinrich thank you! What a lekker message to receive - it honestly means so much getting positive feedback like this! And I love your outlook to adventure and life - it’s there for the living and the laughs…the plan is to be back on the road towards the end of the year again

Wow Kevin - thank you! You know how to make a guy happy about a Monday 🤣 Back on the road towards the end of the year again…

That's so awesome to hear - thank you!!! I am guessing we could share some travel notes and tips as I bet there are amazing places you get to explore on two wheels!

Shot Joe - those are my kids! This adventure is as much for them as it is for me...

Haha had a proper chuckle - I had an old lady and an old goat on this trip! 100% about the Pajero though - hopefully it encourages people to look at more affordable ways to access the overlanding world! I would never want to convert a new car or my daily driver. Thanks for joining us and for all the messages along the way...

So I actually cut out that part out of my rant where I said exactly that - the irony that nobody checks you at your car and how you can literally just walk across further up river. What a laugh...but as amazing as the Lesotho people have been, its clearly a condition that happens when you are given authority because its the same attitude around the world!

Thanks Joe - such a beautiful part of our country and not an area I know too well either! Love to spend some more time exploring there...

It is amazing! And such warm and generous people

Thank you! We will DEFINITELY be back

Wow what a lovely message - thank you! I am going to save that….

Thanks so much for your lovely message! My dogs are my kids - they all getting on in years now so the reality of life without is something that comes up more and more…and it breaks my heart! So all I can do is live like them - they only know now so make the most of every moment

It’s unbelievable - superb roads and in such good condition too! And such Incredible landscape and scenery

So bloody difficult to tell the difference between the Angora kid and a lamb though! Thanks for the message and for the support - thats super cool

Thanks so much Hannelie…glad you enjoyed the show! How could I not help them? So precious

Thank you so much Danny - its amazing to receive such positive feedback and comment!

I hear you....end of the year soon enough?

@@MariusRobertsProductions yes , great news looking forward to watching it

Hey Johannes thank you so much for your kind messages and your support - its really so appreciated! Yep, I do find we are all far too busy wanting what we don't have because we think that will give us the better life when in fact having the time to be present in live and appreciate the world around you will give you the better life!

And that's the best way to start my day - with a lekker comment like that! Thank you...
