Occy and have moved into my van to join the van life movement in Australia, allowing me to live, work and travel full time! I cannot wait to get out there and overland Australia 🙌🏼
#australia #offgrid #livingsmall
Bloody brilliant Max. You are a breath of fresh air. could have cried when you left Occy - can only imagine how you felt!
We both love how you wholeheartedly stand up for mental health and especially men's mental health, You have no idea how many people you will help and save with your words and being a better help ambassador. You deserve that huge hotel room, robe AND glow up station 😂 Food looked EPIC!
Aw man, sounds absolutely CLASS! Can't wait to follow you on your travels - how exciting!!
😘Thumbs up #119 for this comment with my love 💕 to 👑Kinging It!! 🤗 Love you both. #davesandersstepdaughter 🇺🇲
For a minute I thought Max was flying to Morocco to meet up with ya'll. 💙
Love you Craig and Amy!! Been following you from day 1!!
Great video. So happy for your adventure 🙏❤️
Guyyyyys! Just got back to reception to see this lovely message... and that you've made it to Morocco 🙌🏼 Love you both and can't wait for our paths to cross. Until then, looking forward to seeing custard on the African continent! 💛
I recently became a full time nomad at age 71. It is a dream I've had since I was a young girl. So I definitely think it's fantastic that you are following your heart. And, of course, my 14 year old BFF (furbaby) is in every decision I've made. I wish you all the best and look forward to seeing your progress in this new life.
That is SO COOL. Good for you! You rock.
Awesome.. I am truly happy and excited for you. I am 74, but disabled now and no longer travel.
Do you have a UA-cam channel?
Linnie on the Mississippi no. Too much work. I just want to enjoy myself and whatever time i have left with my furbaby.

I love that! Good for you. So much changes when you see the truth. We realize the time is now ❤️
Occy’s hair cut is too cute 😍
Can pull off any cut!
Max keep an ear out for one thing for me please. There is a moment I miss terribly from when I used to sail. There is a moment when the engine is turned off and the sails catch the wind. For lack of better words there is a whump and then hull creaks under the new loading then total silence except for rigging and water. Find this moment and you will have found true peace. I truly miss it with all my heart. Enjoy it! These are times that will define you and build you.
Soon one won't be able to leave Australia
Start training Oxxy to use a piece of plastic mat for bathroom duties , on the boat it will have a line attached to throw it overboard for clean up
Ahhh, Max, you are among my top favorite story tellers on youtube. What a "feel good" way to start my Sunday! So excited for this journey. Cheers to the unnamed Patron who allowed us all to experience five star luxury through your lens. Fair winds and following seas!
Very well said. Max warms my heart and look forward to his next video.
I'm absolutely honoured 💛💛
I sailed the Pacific ocean for 5 years 35 years ago. You will love it and I'm sure Occy will too when it is his turn to join. Best wishes from Mexico
Just look at the way Occy looks at you. You can see how much he loves you
We lost our pup Friday night. We got our Barry as a pup and we had him for 17 years. He turned 17 on nov 10th. I guess you just don’t realize how much they impact your life until they’re gone and you miss them so much
Give occy a hug for me. He has a great dad
🤍
That must have been so tough Penny! I have no doubt you gave Barry a wonderful 17 years. Dogs really are the best of us. Sorry for your loss 💛
@@MaxandOccy Thank you, Max. They really are the best. I bet you’re missing Occy but have fun on the boat and all your fun adventures.....
I'm so sorry for your loss. They are children to us. Love and hugs to you and all who loved Barry.
Musicians carry their instruments when traveling, Max travels with his surfboards ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Safe travels Max!
Always
Occy's haircut makes him look like a puppy! So cute. I wouldn't have guessed sailing but I'm excited to see how you like it.
I'm recovering from a relationship with someone who I love dearly but suffers from paranoid schizophrenia 💓 Seing you open up about mental health, especially mens mental health... And seing you embracing life dispite corona and all that you have been through is very soothing and extremely inspiring!! Thank you for sharing 🙏 And may you enjoy a whole lotta fun and love and laughter 🌈🤗
Occy is such a lover ❤️
oh Max: this vid made my month. I've been struggling, and seeing all those smiling faces on the boat, and you so happy and living a good life. Sending so much love from Ontario Canada. Lee is a good guardian angel!!
Happy I could help Peggy. Stay strong! 💛💛💛
Hi Peggy! Just a random stranger checking in to see how you're doing. I hope you're having a really good day today 💚💚💚
@@MelaniePhoenix very kind of you! all my days are rough, but today is a better one for sure. sending you gratitude.
I was in the middle of watching another video and saw this notification from Max come in. What?! Leaving Australia?!!!
I ditched the other video and switched to this one immediately! I'm at the commercial can't wait to see the rest. The suspense is killing me!
Haha love it!
Dear Max. Life is to be enjoyed and I’m excited for this life change. Nothing better than sailing for adventure and to move forward. I’ve been with you from the beginning and no plans to abandon ship. Go Max!
You and me both Beverly ❤️
So well said Bev! Appreciate you 💛
Hiya Max! I'm from Ontario Ca. And have to admit since the loss of Lee, I took a break from watching the videos...I just couldn't do it, being from the Toronto area and avid fans of Eamon & Bec...I've just recently been binge watching you the last few days playing a little catch up. It's so good to revisit you so To speak, you look refreshed , smiling ...taking good care of yourself mentally physically...it's so so good to see...Occy has really become the ladies man!! You both look great and I'm exciting to once again see the world through your adventures ....thank you for taking us along. Much love and positive vibes from way up and over here in Ontario!🇨🇦
You are a wonderful, kind, honest human. I say, with the utmost respect, please leave Occy where he is🙏🏻
Just come over from Vanwives. Can't wait to hear what you're up to.
Oh God I cried when you said goodbye to Occy.
Earthy Andy has just come back from there.
You deserve this trip Max. Enjoy.
:-) I took the same route getting here.
@@steveqhanson6835 - Am watching Eamon & Bec right now.
Love love love those girls 💛 Thank you 🙏🏼
HOLY COW, MAX……you could have knocked me over with a feather. Been watching Nanji for years now……and it’s just going to get BETTER👍🏻😀
WoW! What a turn around!!! Got goosebumps at the end! Happy to see you so happy. Looking forward to seeing you become a true seaman!
so good to see his big smile!
May blessings rain down on your patron for choosing the kindest soul on the planet to sponsor.
Not a new viewer. Been here for it all and so happy for Max’s joy.
Max welcome back to your true element. PureTravel!
Oh wow, thanks for the recommendation and for sharing the journey. Love from New Zealand 🇳🇿
When you started talking about how you’re staying with fellow Australian youtubers I thought it was Elayna and Riley, but they’ve got two little ones now instead of one lol haven’t checked out Sailing Nanji before but will now!. Good to see you doing so well mate, been a fan/follower for years now since yours and Lee’s journey first began. Wish you all the best!
I have no doubt you will be seeing some van lifers aboard their boat soon! Love those guys too 💛
Hahaha
I've followed these legends from the start
Enjoy froth life bro
You're in great hands indeed
Wow. Indo looks beautiful ... well deserved, I look forward to watching your adventures unfold!
Your smile says it all.
Max it’s good to see you doing things that Lee would want you doing and I’m also sure that lee has had a hand in this next adventure for you and Occy! Much love and well wishes!
💛💛💛
And he's off!!!!! Youve been so forthcoming about the challenges you've faced in the last year or so. At times, I've wondered if we'd ever seen you smile that inspired, excited for life smile again. Well, THERE IT WAS! I can't wait to see more. Thank you for everything!
Way to go Max. You look bloody happy mate. Live life my friend.
Central Victorian here congratulating you on on the 100k! Followed on from your other channel. Have laughed and cried through your journeys so far.. looking forward to wherever life and chances take you next.. 😊 🙏👊💌 wishing you safe travels!
I'm actually quite surprised how emotional I feel seeing you "grab this opportunity with both hands" as you put it. My heart is so happy to see you embark on this adventure with a smile on your face! Be safe and have so much fun!
Thanks Christina I will!
AWESOME NEWS! I absolutely LOVE Sailing Nandji!! You are in for the ride of your life!
Lots of changes over the last several years. Enjoy this next step. I wish you all the best. I was a searcher too many years ago. Thanks for taking me and everyone else along with you.
Enjoy, have fun you deserve it Max!!
It’s so good to see how well you’re doing Max! Beautiful room - fantastic journey ahead my friend - you deserve every bit of this adventure and we’re all behind you buddy! Best wishes, from England
Woohoo can't sleep, love a good Max & Occy vid and it is at 100k! Congrats Max. Knew you were going to Indo. Happy trails.
The crossover we didn't know we needed: You and Sorelle is just brilliant somehow, I really did not expect that and absolutely love it :) Great luck with your new adventure
Ha she is such a legend!
Happy days, You've hit over 100,000. Well deserved and earned. Looking forward to your continued travels. CHEERS Steve h.
Just knew it involved a boat!!! Lee would be thrilled .... good for you Max .... life does turn around .... when we just say .... Thank you... Thank you.... Thank you .... Namaste.
You ruined it for me but that's okay. I was getting impatient to know what's up anyway
Thanks for the update.
Occys haircut looked fabulous,
What a great new adventure for you Max, hope it goes well and is all you want it to be. Looking forward to sharing the adventures here.x
I teared up watching this video. You have come a long way in your healing journey, glad to see you smile from your heart again. Be kind. Always 💜🧘🏽♀️🙏🏾
This is going to be awesome! I lived in Indonesia for 3 yrs while my husband was a expat pilot for Garuda Airlines. Love Indonesia and the people who live there! Look forward to seeing more videos!
I LOVE INDONESIA! Lived there for 7 years! Loved every minute of it!
Good for you, Max! You're going to love sailing...
Thanks mate!
There's so much to see outside of the western world. Wow, thank you. It's is beautiful. Now I see why Michael Hutchence (Giving away my age) loved to travel and did. Loved your shout-out to Lee.
Been here since the beginning! I am so happy to see you getting to your old happy self Good for you for promoting self help, takes courage, proud of you for this. Have a blast on this new adventure. oh! I get the hard part of leaving fluffy bear Occy behind, breaks my heart. At least he us with someone he loves.
I really appreciate that Dee!! 💛
Yes! Max is back travelling!!!! Woot the world is yours Max!!!!
Goosebumps Max! Can't wait to see this next adventure
Congrats on being so close to 100k subscribers
Thanks Tiff! 💛
cannot wait for the Nandji vids with you!! Hope you love it, nothing beats sailing!
Max, I want to thank you for recommending Better Help. I love my therapist, who has now seen me through: coping with the deaths of several coworkers; overwhelming burnout from that job; deciding on a cross-country move; dealing with the search for new employment; moving in with my daughter who's expecting; looking for a house to rent together; and now a budding new relationship. The past six months have been challenging, but exciting. My Better Help therapy sessions have helped keep me grounded and accountable. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you and Occy! Love from Las Vegas!
I am so unbelievably happy for you Max! What a spectacular hotel suite I can’t believe how beautiful that is man! Lol literally better than an upscale apartment! Lovin it man gob bless!
It is good to see you starting on another journey, Max. I was so sad to see you leaving Occy behind, but understand and he is with someone he loves. You, however, will always be numero uno with him! I will be watching how you manage and learn sailing - I have followed a couple that also have a dog. You can use mats for Occy for his bathroom needs on the boat, too. Good luck in your new adventure! ❤️🙏
Congratulations! I’ve been here since the start of Max and Lee
You are on the cusp of incredible……..thanks you for taking us along.
Awesome Max! May you discover your inner Old Salt and not have a tendency for sea sickness. Occy is having a fine time basking
In love while you are gone. So happy you could have this adventure!!
Oh Max, I’m soooo sooo happy for you and Occy! Just wish he was with you, but I think he’ll be fine until he can join you! What an exciting life you live! I can’t wait to see this next chapter, have missed you guys every week! Congratulations on 100k which I’m sure your going to hit SOON! You so deserve it! Continue on with your new life but please bring us along as much as you can, we truly miss you!!! Have the time of your life in paradise!👍🏻🐶🐶💕🙏🏻
Thanks Tracy, will do my best 💛💛💛
Max your channel is so refreshing! Thank you!
God and the universe bless you! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🌎
Max, my friend, it is so warming and inspiring to see what you've turned the last year into. So glad to see you travel again. Cheers to this absolutely beautiful new adventure!
Godspeed on your new journey Max🥰🙏🏼 Occy is so lovable with all your female friends!! He’s gotten to be a “player” with the girls 😉♥️💯
I've been watching your videos for quite some time now and I never tire of you spirit and pure transparency. I'm so thrilled you are having this chance to experience something new. Blessings to you!
Appreciate that mate!
Sorelle!!!
Big jump from Iceland. Great to see her and this is a great vlog.
I’m so happy to see you start the next leg of the journey in your life. From VanLife to SeaLife, Occy will love it too. Cheers from Canader eh!
Thanks Susan! 💛
I'm so happy for you.
That’s awesome Max! So great to see you excited! That smile is priceless! I think I even said something in comments a few videos ago that I could see you & Occy sailing the world! Have been following you for a long time. Great to see you’re doing better now! Can’t wait to see your sweet boy back with you! Looking forward to watching your sailing adventure!
Right on Max! Live life big.
Rory while watching this: 'I miss Maxie, hey, the toilet is getting him!' So excited for your adventure, bro!
I miss Rory too. He will be a great deckhand on the boat ; )
Man! It's never boring with you, is it? 😁 You're becoming a skipper, ey? Good on you! Looking forward to following your adventures! 👍🏽😉
Don't come back, Australia has turned into a medical dictatorship.
Congrats on 100k subs. So excited to see your new adventure, some sunny skies coming our way!
Is so awesome to see you genuinely excited and happy again about a new adventure. Can't wait to see more of the fun adventures!
Wow that's the life. Glad you're feeling better. Great video enjoyed it.
Max! I am so excited for you!!!! I’ve been along for the ride for several years. Since Eamon&Bec introduced you and Lee, really. Life brings heartbreak sometimes. I’m so glad to see you living fully with it’s scars (bc really, they never completely heal, do they?)
Appreciate that and you Lynn 💛💛
I’m so glad Occy is with his crush❗️🥰❤️🧡💖Good on you for being willing to learn sailing skills. It makes me happy and amazed how much you achieve and also how much you give and receive. I can see how much work goes into filming, editing et al. Love that you keep it real - real feelings and illustrating to everyone life is full of ups and downs. A rich tapestry 🧡😊
Sounds so wonderful Max It's awesome how you dive into life and the things you want to experience. God bless. Off grid in Oklahoma Mt Momma
I am stoked about following along on this adventure!
Max, what a great idea! Can't wait to watch this new adventure unfold. :)
What a luxurious way to “isolate.” Love those meals, look so healthy. But, nothing like freedom. Happy travels!
So excited for you Max and happy you feel Lee had a hand in lining it up for you. Made me sad when you had to leave Occy but looking forward to your reuniting for a new adventure and new way of life.
I thought you got a new puppy..then i realizes its Occy with a new haircut.. he looks fabulous 👌
That ‘see you later’ Max-Occy HUG melted my heart! Safe journey Max, we’ll be cheering you on from all corners in the Universe🐾💖💖🐾
Fantastic!!! Thanks for keeping us in suspense, it was worth it... you are jumping into a beautiful dream come true!... My dog did fine on a sailboat, I hope Occy loves it! Enjoy!!!!
Will miss your Australia adventures but looking forward to your new ones..💗.....Lee is watching over you....😘
Australian adventures aren't completely done yet!
WOW!!! Thank you! Good for you!!! Wish you all the best!!!
Great to see you again Max (& Occy, if only for a short bit). Sending love & safe travels! ❤️
I had to leave my Bela, KitKat and parrot last year in NY. It was one of the hardest things to do. They are doing great, but leaving them for a new life broke my heart. I feel you. I so admire you. You are a strong, healthy soul. Enjoy your journeys and stay safe. God bless you.
Wow, sure is a change. I can't wait to see how Occy takes to it! A well deserved break to start with, you deserve it Max.
I have to say, your doggie is absolutely gorgeous. I just can’t take my eyes off him. The colour of his fur is beautiful! And he is such a cuddle bug. Have a wonderful time. Peace love and light. ☮️💕
Congratulations and so happy to see you posting! Good luck in your future endeavors!!!
You are loved by many. Happy, rejuvenating travels, kind man.😊
Wow, Max. So amazing. So uplifting. I AM SO HAPPY for you. As I watched this video, things I have been thinking of doing felt more possible for me. Your next adventure really filled me with excitement and optimism. With love from Grace now in Sri Lanka 🌺❣️
Love this Grace. You can do it! 💛
Hello from Houston Texas.....nice change of pace ... thanks for letting me tag along I'm waiting patiently for this journey please be safe pay close attention to all the rules I want yourself and OCCY SAFE on a boat thanks in advance!
Good luck on our new adventure..will admit that I got teary eyed when you said goodbye to Occy as we know what happened the last time you two were apart.. Let's hope you two get back together real soon! x
Hey Max. I struggle with mental health as a Aussie Veteran and you inspire me every week.
Sorry to hear that you have been struggling mate. Keep doing the hard work and things will get better 🙏🏼 you deserve to be happy and at peace 💛
@@MaxandOccy I do appreciate that man. I have a Border Collie whose my certified Mental Health Assistance Dog. DVA didn't financially support me with her purchase nor training which I thought was shameful. She's 6yo. Perhaps someday we can meet up. BTW don't do SM apart from here. SM is so corrosive.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Max, it's always great to see you & Occy. Great video and information so far can't wait to see the next videos in the near future. Furthermore, it's difficult and I can relate when you have to leave your dear furry friend behind, I had to during this pandemic since I'm in the medical field. However, I know is not forever and I'm looking forward to be reunited with my little princess Nikki. Stay Safe & Healthy... Abrazos
Awesomeness move!
I get the compartmentalization!
Hi Max, I’ve been a longtime admirer of your blogs & started back when you were traveling with Lee.
Enjoy this new chapter. So glad you are following all the health protocols. Thank you for modeling such a good attitude towards them.
Thank you so much for sharing you life with us. 😘
Good luck, looking forward to watching this always wanted to travel around the world on a boat
