    Mate, it’s awesome to see you out there on your own. Your freedom makes me jealous. If you venture into the central highlands( just west of Emerald Qld ) there are a few Saphire fossicking areas around the towns of Rubyvale, Saphire and Anakie. My family and friends visit the area every year and camp out in an area call Glenalva.

    3:42 that being the case , meander your way down to Mungo Lake and immerse yourself in the FNP history there. The human history on site is so immense that it sucks you in with just how astoundingly old it is. The Darling River Run is a great way to get there and it starts at Brewarrina with the fish traps in the river. They are the oldest known, continually standing, man made structures in the world. Older than the pyramids, older than Machu Picchu.

    To make driving on corrugated roads easier. Deflate your tyres, down to about 18-20psi. Takes out a lot of the judders. Saying that you need to have some type of pump to re-inflate.

    The hat is very wise. I survived Hodgkins Cancer with 50/50 chance of live but with lots of treatments and painful test and surgery's I beat it but since then I've had 12 cases of skin cancer and since last October I've had 5 cancers removed and 3 of them I had 84 stitches. So do yourself a favor and cover. Love your videos. :)

    It is a live and learn experience, I hope somebody advised you to let some air out of your tyres to absorb some of the shock between 10 and 15 percent, you will find this much smoother with less damage in your van. Loving your travel vids, awesome drone work, would love to see some photos also. Keep up the great content.

    I think I watched that block once or twice about a decade ago. Those shows seem designed for an older audience, and your video reflects that style. This might be why you’re not getting many views or likes. I clicked on your video hoping to find useful solutions to many problems. However, the excessive talking was off-putting, and I found myself skipping through it, disappointed and without gaining anything of value. Maybe if you pulled the trim and plated it with nickel or black chromium would have been something of value, but you just take short-cuts. and it's a waste of my time.

Hes nearing 12 and GSDs are about 10-12 yrs. Did lot of swimming with him which has been good for his health They are awesome connections youre creating because youre very genuine and respectful yourself 😊 What a great view and energy to wake up to. The serenity. Are you going to plot a map of these places and share bit later? Maybe something us patreons it could be shared with after youve been through 🤔 I think lot of us would love to travel this journey. Love your boots there at the end Aime.
