About us:
We're Jack & Megan, and in late 2020 we sold our belongings and packed our lives into our 2005 Toyota Troop Carrier to travel Australia. Our original plan was to complete a full lap of Australia and return home to Perth to resume our 'normal' lives. We decided we wanted to document our lap for the future and began sharing weekly travel vlogs of our life on the road and fell in love vlogging, filmmaking and sharing our lives with you. We completed our first lap and couldn't imagine living any other way so we decided to continue travelling and calling the Troopy home. We have gone on some crazy adventures since then and it is all thanks to you tuning in to join us every week.
You guys are a great example of travelling on a budget, not having the latest tow vehicle & some expensive van. You show people that you don't need a 100g tow vehicle & 200g van to enjoying travelling Aussie. Bunnings need to sponsor you for the van restorations😉. Keep up the great work!
I like the way you do projects - like restoring older vans. It sets you apart in a very crowded UA-cam space. The caravan travel genre has pretty well been done so fixing up an old van and then using it makes for very interesting content. Thanks!
Best wishes and safe travels.
Great to hear this feedback, thank you! I think we definitely feel more creative with our travel videos once we get back to them after a project 😊
I actually love your reno caravan videos!
Seriously i follow every travelling family in Aus, but I really like seeing the creative creations you make ! 💪🏻
That’s so lovely to hear, thank you! Really happy you enjoy them 🥰
You both have come so far not just in the way you create your videos, but in the way you’ve grown and learned to put yourselves first. Megan, as an 18 year old girl, I truly look up to you. I’ve never had the experience of feeling at home, but seeing what you’ve built with Murtil - a home on wheels, filled with love and freedom is deeply inspiring. Your journey hasn’t been easy, but you’ve turned it into something beautiful, and that gives me so much hope for my own path. Every time I watch your vlogs its reminder to myself to slow down and focus on what really matters to me. Thank you for sharing your story
You absolute nutters, but it doesn't surprise me. Loved all your rebuilds and will equally enjoy this one. Best of luck and have fun with your build and such a nice thing to do for your families to use at will. Good job guys. Enjoy. From a very happy viewer of your channel.
Hi from nz There are so many travelling caravan vids coming from oz but yours-is definitely my favourite. You have a point of difference and it doesn’t feel like you’re trying to become influencers to brands. That’s becoming so noticeable in the other channels they are loosing there magic from a viewer’s perspective. Love what you are embarking on this time. Thanks for the great content.
OMG you guys are off your rocker and amazing! Looking forward to following this new Reno 👍👏🤗
What an incredible gift you're giving to your family. A chance for them to experience a little bit of your life on their own. What an amazing job you've done so far. Can't wait until next week to see what you've gotten done!
So excited for them to experience it! It's been such a good motivator through the hot days 😅 thanks heaps for watching!
I didn't realise I was so invested, but I was delighted to see you back. This is a great/crazy idea
Omg u guys. How generous for your family. So I reckon it will be quicker for sure cause u have skills now. The pop top may add extra time. Good on u. I’m excited for another build series 👏
I’m glad you’re back happy New Year. I’m looking forward to this caravan build, especially if you’re going to try and do it in 30 days and Megan, you’re still looking as beautiful as ever ❤❤❤
Hey Jack and Megan. It was me who called you on the UHF when you were travelling home on the new bypass. But we lost signal. We recognised Mertel Enjoy your next build of Burt the Caravan. Looking forward to what you can achieve
My goodness you guys are maybe a little bit crazy but you certainly know how to make great content. Renovating another caravan in this awful heat we're having in WA is next level. Bert is going to be so handsome and can't wait to see him sitting proudly alongside beautiful Myrtle. Can't wait till next Sunday for the next stage 👏👏👏
Haha thanks so much!! Not gonna lie, the heat has been killing us 😆 we’re so excited to share the next episode!
Great video guys!! Looking forward to the rest of the build. You've done really well so far!! Cheers from South Australia.
Wow, I'm impressed at the way you tackle these builds. Gives me encouragement for a partial rebuild I've got coming up.
What a way to start the year and you've already done a killer job on the new build. Awesome to have you guys back!
We're stoked to be back! Thanks so much for watching 🙏🏼💛
Oh my goodness you crazy buggers ! Love having you back and especially to do another build. Look how confident you are🙌😃
Haha it's such a change from this time last year isn't it! Thanks so much for watching 💛
You guys are gonna smash this outta the park! So much more confident going into this build.
Wooooo! Haha part confidence, part delusion 😆 whatever gets the job done we're happy with
Byrtle and Myrtle. What a combination. Good to see you guys again. Looking good so far for 4 days in. Keep at it and I know you will get it done in 30 days. Looking forward to seeing the end results.
Thanks heaps! We're so glad to be back 😄 fingers crossed we can get it all done by the time the 30 days is up!
You are both absolute machines!! Great job so far!
Thanks so much! 💪🏼💪🏼
WOW you guys are hammering it out - 4 days in and boy, the transformation so far. That heat - man, that would make it tiring! So looking forward to watching the progress. Well done guys. Looking absolutely fabulous. Sarah, NZ
Wow. Good on you two and how lucky are your family members for this amazing gift! Looking forward to following your build of your new little gem 😊
Great to see you guys back and awesome that you had a bit of time to yourselves. Bring on the new build. It looks great so far! We are 5 weeks into our 4-month Half Lap and are loving van life 😀
Well done jack and Megan it's looking amazing already looking forward to see the finished van all the best Ron
Thanks so much Ron! We're so excited to share it all!
Hi Jack and Megan, I've never commented on UA-cam before, but just wanted to say, you've kept me entertained for the last four days while I've been stuck in bed unwell. I watched an episode where you had satay chicken and broccoli and that is all I can think about now I'm on the mend, satay chicken and broccoli just like Jack and Megan! Ha! Fair to say I've watched a whole lot of UA-cam in four days and what I can say is you two are the most genuine - keep it up and hopefully I can watch you from a less binging more upright point from now on.
Hey Nicole, thanks so much this was such a beautiful comment to read! Enjoy your satay chicken 😂 glad you’re enjoying the episodes, we hope you’re feeling better! 🙏
My wife and I love following you guys, we are repairing (rebuilding) an old UK Caravan so I understand the surprises they throw at you. We started last April and still have a lot to do. Keep the chins up, from your kiwi fans.
You guys are nukkin futz and I love you for it!!!!! What a great job and I love seeing you work through stuff. AWESOME!!!!!!!
Haha thanks for watching mate! 🙌🏼 Old Bert came up pretty well for 4 days! See you next week
This is going to be fun to watch! Love you guys!
Yayyy so happy you enjoyed the first video of the series Steve!

You guys are absolutely amazing. Just turned on the iPad and seen you were back. Just at the right time for me as I’m sitting home recovering from a cancer removal operation. Look forward to seeing the new build.

I tune in every week and absolutely love your channel! Watching your renovations is always inspiring, and I can't wait to see how Bert turns out. The 30-day challenge sounds intense, but if anyone can pull it off, it's you two! Looking forward to the next update!

You two are absolutely crazy, why would you put yourselves through this again 😊 anyway good luck with the build.
Just the happy place you two are in just wish you went bit slower with vinyl top as iam getting close to doing mine ❤
😊😊😊😊😊
You crazy pair. Happy New Year.😊
You two are crazy!
Agreed 🤣
You are both as crazy as hell😂…but I’ll watch every episode😅
Hahaha we agree and appreciate you! 🤣💛
Love you guys
So the hint with renovating these pop top vans is to put an OK awning over the top of the whole caravan and take the top completely off! That way, you can fix the timber ceiling, in the shed and its much easier. And if you can do an east to west double bed( like you did in myrtle) do it as we did and it was so much more comfy to sleep in than two single beds! There's heaos more but that's two to start with. Oh and when you strip out tge internal walks make sure you put all the timbersback in the same spots and add heaps more before religning! Hot tip and you'll use tgem- trustee! Phil
I am in Queensland and if I were in WA I’d help although it’s not the size of a house so you can definitely do it in 30 days with full days everyday! Four days and you’ve knocked out a lot of big things and I predict the bulk of it will be done in less than 30 days! Looks great and your families will love it!
Can’t wait to see the finish! 😜
Ahhh I missed you guys 🩷💙
❤❤❤ you guys so much
We missed you!! 💛💛
Bloody rippa guys 😊
Yep the heat is shocking at the moment I'm in the wheatbelt
Hope Bert serves you well
Fantastic I have been waiting for this.
So excited to finally share everything 😄
Love your work, you gluttons for punishment 😂❤
Absolutely incredible work guys. It looks nearly finished already. Remember your lead times for getting replacement windows etc to keep to your schedule. Can’t wait for the next video.
Thanks so much guys! He’s really starting to come together now, can’t wait to share the next video 😁 hope you’re both doing well! 💛
Good luck guys I don’t believe you are doing it again you will smash this one out now you know what you are doing 😂❤
Haha I literally have a clip of Jack saying he would never do it again 🤣 fingers crossed we can get it all done in time! Thanks for watching ☺️
Looking good 😁😎 That exterior colour looks like it belongs behind the Land Cruiser 😜
It does! Can't wait to get it hitched onto Dimples when we're done 😃
Love it. Caravan Sadomasochism. Good luck.❤
Haha that’s classic 😂😂 thanks Peter!
Credit to you when I first saw it in the intro, it was WTF are you doing? But seeing how much you have done its amazing. Great job.
Hahah don't worry, we were thinking the same thing 🤣 thanks so much for watching! See you next week 😄
Why am I not surprised at all? I called this as soon as you finished Myrtle that it wouldn’t be your last 😂. The floor looks good, and the mouse is very cute. This is going to be fun ❤️
I hope they paid you yo take it.
If it's an Aerolight check for floor rotation around the perimeter. They don't have any perimeter steel frame.
Omg you guys are amazing and nuts
😆😆 thanks for watching!
OMG, you guys are gluttons for punishment. No rest for the wicked!! Glad to see you back.
Great to have ya's back on .... perhaps you can put a towbar on Myrtle and make yourselves a road train! lol
Haha how awesome would that be 😆🙌🏼
We were gifted a Viscount 1986 in probably slightly worse condition 😳 for the internal bed frame etc we use tube lock very light and worked a treat, in expensive and available in Welshpool
Looks awesome
There is a song 🎵 called 30 days by Chuck Berry.
You should use it as your theme song 🎵 😉
You’ve brought an old head banger! At 17:55 Megan finds out why they were called “Head bangers”!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve hit my head already 😂😂
@@itsJackandMegan Ouch! Maybe a helmet would help? Note to yourself, don't put your tongue between your teeth when stepping up into a space with less headroom. Oh ouch! Just thinking about it makes me cringe.
Top work 💯🇦🇺
Thanks guys! 💛
