![ОРБАН приехал к ПУТИНУ и "отчитался" о поездке в Киев 😁 [Пародия]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/_0ukDovOWq8/mqdefault.jpg)
Loving the series. Gives me a lot of inspiration for my own trip. Spent a year in Karratha in 2006 so got some fond memories there.
Special request: Can Tiff not wear sunglasses in any more of your vids? Her eyes are absolutely stunning. :-)
That was better than Christmas!
Great stuff!! enjoyed every second of it. Have even more great ideas to pursue. Thanks.
Awesome episode again. Great to see you catch some fish. Doing a lamb in my travel buddy this arvo! Could smell your coffee from here😋. See you again next week. Cheers.👍👍
Great episode guys. Well done 👍
Bloody magic guys! Loving every episode more and more!
Love watching your vids keep up the great work can not wait to get our camper trailer on the road for a break, loving your beautiful countryside of WA, we live in the Hunter Valley NSW
Each video gets better. So good that you are interested in the history of where you go. Stay safe
Thank you so good to watch
Hey there!! I live in Brisbane and just found your wonderful channel. What a gorgeous family. You two are fantastic parents and little Chloe is a dream child, so happy. I don’t think I want to see some of the places you go but I’m still enjoying coming along with you guys. Excellent travel guide.
We love your videos. Very authentic and knowledgeable.
Another fantastic video guys,brings back memories of our trip in 2016 from Adelaide,Darwin,Broome and all the way down WA coast and back home towing a 20ft caravan towed by my mighty Pajero VRX.Looking forward to your next video, stay healthy and travel safe,cheers JB
Great to hear that you found a good mechanic/business.
Having tradies that you can trust and rely on is excellent imo and in this day and age can be a challenge to fin
Thanks for the video guys.
Another entertaining video albeit at Cam’s expense in more ways than one. An understanding and compassionate wife really helps. Years ago I bought a bum bag thinking it was $10.00 intending to keep bits and pieces in a LandCruiser centre console. After checking statements it was in fact $110.00.(😎R). Great photography and again we’re enjoying your journey. Safe travels.
Another great episode, thank you guys!
Great vid guys really informative, can't wait to explore your great state one day 👍
Always astonished to see what you can whip up in the Travel Buddy. Thought it was just a glorified pie warmer. Thanks for changing my view. Might even add one to our set up.
Another great episode guys. Was hoping to see more of Karratha as I loved there as a young tacker in early 80’s. All good though. Some great tips on the travel buddy upgrades too.
Great family video, thanks.
Great work love it . Thought that reef shark was going to get a bit of ya .
Also cracked me up seeing you trying to squash the roast into the travel buddy .
You did well with your fishing today Cam..... the white tip looked a lovely species...
Cam I tend to shop like you - my wife is the one who won't buy unless it is on special! Stayed in the Discovery Park in Karratha in 2019. Liked it.
that baking tray looks am absolute winner. my wife is getting me a travel buddy for xmas so hopefully 🎅 brings me the baking accessories as well🙏🙏🙏🙏
I use an Oven bag for roasts, meat etc. The meat is so tender
Just found you guys and absolutely love your videos. Keep up the great work/holiday! Loved the finances part of this video lol.
Bloody epic guys loved it
They are great trays. The door works well too. Im going to have to come over when things settle down.
Really great video. Thanks for the tip Cam, on ' How to get out of shopping' I am definitely going to try that. I recon top shelf scotch should do the trick. lol
All the best.
Omg ..... the free gifts were amazing ! that was really nice. I had to think about the shopping thing .... I guess on the couple ,never when hungry ! I can't believe the soda $ thats crazy. That last bit about dropping the fish LOL Thanks
Hi Guys another great video do we have to wait till next week for the next one You've got me hooked, cheers
Great vid guys!
Nice vid as per usual Guys 👌
thank you for great detail video
Great Vid! Keep up the cooking with the travel buddy.... looking at getting one and doing some cook ups in it!
Good episode mate. Keep them coming! I’m still yet to cook a pork roast in my travel buddy but after seeing this it’s on the cards next trip away! Yewww
When I do a roast in my mine I use an Oven bag and cook for 4 hours, the meat is always so tender ,😍😍
That’s sweet. I thought about doing the same! Keen as to try!!
What great additions to the travel buddy I’m sure roadrunner have sold out of them after your pitch
Designed the 3km wharf conveyor at cape Lambert just out from point Samson
Great video guys
I used to go surfing at hearson.s cove up from pt Samson and mountain walkingon trails around aboriginal cave painting on burrup peninsula and old pearling port of Cossack
Great show guys awesome places inspired to do the same
Another great video Guys. Nothing beats a 'proper coffee'. Try a splash of Jameson's next time - Irish Coffee, simply the best!
May I make a small request please...? BLOOPER REEL ! I'm sure there's a few more beside the "Pilbara Fish"... love your content folks, thanks again - Peter V.
17:00 the author of Red Dog also wrote Captain Corelli's Mandolin - turned into a great Hollywood movie. Captain Corelli's Mandolin is a 2001 war film directed by John Madden. It is based on the 1994 novel Captain Corelli's Mandolin by Louis de Bernières, well, who also wrote Red Dog, but that's another story ...
Great to see a young family doing what they love. Chrissy Baby (WA)
Hey Chris, hows retirement mate?
Did you choose a van?
Good to hear from you!
Those desks at the Cossack school reminded me of mine with ink wells for fountain pens
I'd love to do this Lap of WA myself, that would be so awesome, I'm hoping to actually do it when Covid dies down, anyway absolutely amazing videos as ever, All the best.
Great episode 👍 crazy idea Chloe reviews play grounds 🤪
😂 love it!
I love places like 40 Mile. Suited to people who like to switch off and do nothing. You did better at your fishing than last time I was there though.
Hard borders and now open.. you are free to roam, most states.. good luck
I've never used "Pilbara Dirt" as a coating on my fish. Looking forward to that.
great to meet yous in the great town of Esperance enjoy
Likewise mate, cheers!
great vids, really enjoying your trip. we use a product called Talon from coles when ants get in the van its a gel and they love it take it back to the nest and kills the queen. good gear.
Cheers Neil, good tip mate 👍
We got smashed at the pub and by the sandflies at Point Samson 😂 and just got us some trays from Road Runner 👍
Love it guys❤️.....Cam get off the coke!😆
😂
Enjoying watching your videos, can't believe the cost of overnight stays in caravan parks up there. When I retire I'll be living on the road :)..
Great way to live! I'm sure we'll do the same.
Is the duck on strike? I love that duck. Bring back the duck.
How cool is this backyard we call Australia? When I was a young tacker I wondered what it would be like to be an ant on a moss covered rock I saw in a stream, just wandering around having a look. I reckon you guys know exactly what it would be like, just with beer, coffee and roast pork and veg too. Can’t believe you were allowed to test out the new tray on anything other than even more cupcakes, so much more efficient for producing said wonders.
did not know you could get those trays for oven, might have to buy one.
The old 'Minister for no fun and Finances' hey Cam! bahahahahahaha!
😂
Ant Sand! When we store our camper, we put Antsand around the wheels and jocket wheel. Works a treat!!!
Will google it, cheers for the suggestion!
Seriously! Loving your channel guys, used to watch Tripinavan, however, I love how you tell it how is and im keen to check out WA!
Keep up the great content! Ps Roast looked amazing 😍
At $58 a night, they won't be seeing me! Rip off. Loving your vids guys.
Nice feed of fish. Very expensive camping up that way, can't believe what they charge for some of those bush sites
and the old it's school holidays mark up. What will you do over Christmas school holidays, usually all booked out.
I take it that Cam is a chef in real life
No, just a bloke passionate about eating 😂
Hey guys. Thanks for what you do. We really enjoy watching. May I ask what chairs you have as they look like great quality. Thanks guys. Keep up the great content. Hello Chloe! We love watching you enjoying everything. Such a good little girl.
Thanks for the kind words Kerri. The chairs are Oztent Gecko. Theyre a great chair but they are pretty heavy and bulky.
Youre very welcome! Thanks for that and the honesty regarding the weight. I realky appreciate it. Catch you on your next video.
Bloody awesome video guys keep them coming!!! Have you done a run through or your 4x4? Would love to see that set up! Looks pretty awesome
Did one a while back, internal canopy Fitout changed a little since then, will be doing a bit of a build series with changes I make early next year 👍
ua-cam.com/video/UeiyFJIF3Mc/v-deo.html
Nice you got some of my trays now. I make them for Road Runner Offroad. I put their logos on them for them instead of my own Somerville MetalWorks. Cam you bought your latch on your oven off me Albeit through ebay
You're knocking out some great work Rory!
Currently we are staying at the Discovery Park at Karratha, since June 2019. So much to do at Karratha and the Pilbara region. If we knew you were staying there few months ago, my husband could got you a discount at the Liquor Barrens. Great video.
😂 if I was getting discounts at Liquor Barron's I might not have ever left!!!
I love that area, Ive been trying to talk Tiff into a move up there, but it probably won't happen. Will definitely be back with a boat in the next few years to explore the archipelago!
Karratha is nice plenty of work up here but very hot in summer. We are planning to leave in early Mary to continue our travels up north. We dont have a boat but we do alot of camping in some of the gorges and watering holes around here. Happy travels...looking forward to your next video. :-)
I grew up in Point Samson but cant recognize it or get my bearings without the jetty, was the main feature of the town.
28:15 the Blue fish knife goes onto red meat. You can buy a white knife for fish, and use a Blue knife for poultry.. The colours for knives and boards aren't an accident. Get the colours right. Or you'll get a bowl accident.
Love the trip you guys have done, been great following you video's Have a question for you Cam what have you done to your vehicle to prevent and stop rust?
85$ a slab? I wouldn’t have bought them! And I love beer! 😊😊🍺🍺🍺
Really enjoying the episodes. What do you usually use while you are fishing? Lure versus bait? Would be awesome to see a video on that!
For herring and whiting I’m using bait, for the bigger stuff I use lures. I’m still learning how to fish though so don’t take my advice haha 🤣
Going to try that the way you cooked your pork. And when you going to make Damper on a open fire ? Please.. Loving the series
Didn't bring our camp oven on this trip unfortunately!
Just a tip my son is a chef, he always removes the net from around meat. That way you don't have to fight removing it when time comes to cut it up. Yes it holds its shape.
Cheers Kelvin, will try it next time!
Mmmm. Pork fat. My weakness. Impressive size roast you could squeeze into the Travel Buddy.
another good episode thanks guys, who sent you the coffee and cups
Espresso Tenango, link in the description. Well worth giving their TNG blend a go, it's a winner!!
Good vid. Yeah $58! I wouldn’t have stayed there unless absolutely necessary. Some caravan parks nowadays are taking the utter piss.
Sure are!!
Can you do a video on your new coffee grinder and coffee set up and milk frother. Love the video's.
Will do mate. Coffee IS essential for successful camping!
Ok so this is episode 17.. I reckon with the WA borders now open there's going to be an episode 117 in 2021 lol !
How are you guys coping with the heat up north ? Do you have air con in that hybrid camper or just use fans ?
Cheers guys !
Really liked this episode. Wa beaches really are the best. We want to do a coast tour someday all the way. What tires do you have on Ute?, may be worth doing video review of it, how long it last, how many punctures?
Running Falken Wikdpeak At3w. Brilliant tyres. At the end of our trip I will do a review /comparison with my last set which were the similarly priced Toyo Open Country AT2. so far the Falkens are a much better tyre!
@@WildTouring sounds good. They do look really nice , nearly a wrangler look but I had a fair bit of punctures with them. Running supercat at moment that I aren’t happy with
LMFAO @ OOPS...... That's a Pisser Tiff...neverrrr take a Man Shopping haha... Luv Ya Work !
Hey Cam, are you able to show the people that aren't to sure [like me], how to whip up the coffee. I bought an electric grinder and a percolator a few camp trips ago but haven't really enjoyed a coffee with it yet. do you need to press the coffee down like the barista does, how much do you put in each cup before you add hot milk or water if at all? Perhaps if you could just show us how you do it I can go from there. cheers.
Will do! Either this weds or next I'll post a vid on how we do coffee at camp.
R u kidding
Done it again guys. Another great episode. BTW what size coffee pot have you got?
We use the 3 cup, makes two medium strength coffees, around 300ml each (with milk).
Good question, I wonder if the battery system can handle the buddy sitting at about 110⁰c for most of the day, I suppose you could chuck it in when you leave camp in the morning and after you've reached your next destination, Walla, pulled pork.
Definitely, or if you've got a decent solar array it's no drama on your batteries. It draws about 10a, so 250-300w of solar will keep up with it in good conditions.
👍🏻with you there...the woman should always control the finances😂😂😂and my husbands an accountant and I still do the finances!!!🤣
Yr wraps always look delicious😋
So good you are gifted products. Good on you!
😂
enroute back to go fishing with @brodiemoss lol
Haha would love that! Big fan of his!
Saw him in Exmouth on the way up North, had a bit of a fan-girl moment 😂
When you Finish your tinnie you need to take the holder off before you toss ya tin. :-)
Love the content on the channel mate, good to see a family with a young one travelling around WA. Why did you sell the 100 series and buy the dual cab? Reason i ask is because im looking at selling my gu and moving to a dual cab and need some ideas to justify it 😂
It was originally a naturally aspirated diesel - 1hz. Painfully gutless, so I turboed it and ended up spending close to 12k on the motor in repairs/maintenance and performance bits over a couple of years. It was still pretty slow, unreliable, thirsty and uncomfortable.
The dual cab is no where near as capable offroad, but my style of 4x4ing has changed and the reality is that a good touring rig will get me anywhere I want to go nowadays. Economy is great, it's reliable, comfortable and cheaper to maintain.
@@WildTouring yeah understandable, sound like what im currently going through now withy my 3 litre GU. How do you find the space in the back for kids? Theu seem a little less roomy than the cruisers/patrols but i dont think that they are that much smaller.
Hello to you guys, recent subscriber just watching your video's, all out of order too, noticed in Video 2 you were concerned about weight and managing where it was positioned.
Have you found now after being on the road for a while there is much gear you packed that you dont need or have seldom used and would leave behind next time?
we recently bought a new van, upon unpacking our old van before selling it, we just didnt realize how much "stuff" (crap) we had accumulated over the years, most of which we didnt use.
Just wondering if you have found the same after a few months full time.
Keep the Videos coming, very enjoyable.
Thanks
Gday Chris, we've definitely shed a bit of weight since starting. A few things that didn't get used - beach chair/lounge, Chloes bike, Chloes plush couch, stable tables etc.
We also got rid of one of the spare wheels for the van, the 80l water tank in the car after I cracked it, the washing machine after it broke a couple of times 😂 and some camp fire stuff (fire pit, chainsaw and axe as we're out of fire season now).
When I'm home I'll redesign a new canopy build with a focus on shedding some more weight on the car.
@@WildTouring thanks for the reply, I am trying to keep our new van very spartan but stuff keeps creeping in.
Do you spray around your stabilizers with surface spray, anything that links your van to the ground to keep the ants out. Thanks, safe travels
We didn't, but we will now!
@@WildTouring Watch out for snakes too around your camp. I am sure you are diligent but you know how it is. Thanks, enjoying your journey :)
My wife is 100% you Cam... she never looks at prices! Hahaha
😂
Random question mate how old are you? You seem pretty young with a beautiful family and living the absolute dream 🤙
You say the caravan park was half empty, I prefer to think of it as half full.
Always the optimist! Respect! 😂
Hey mate an ant bite on it would have at least made it twice as big...should be thankful for any extra you can get!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha, thanks Brad!!! 😂
Hi,
With things like servicing the vehicle while traveling, do you book it in advance or just take your chances
Thx for all your uploads
Cheers..
Book it in a couple of weeks in advance. During peak season these coastal towns can be overwhelmed with the number of tourists/travellers passing through.
@@WildTouring thx for info. Safe travels
Hey guys what frypan and saucepan set are you using?? Are the any good?
Aldi ones, they're an aluminum set with some sort of non stick coating and handle is detachable. I reckon it's a great set!
Quick one. I’ve noticed your Saftey chains are really long. The idea behind them being crossed is so if the hitch Eva comes off it doesn’t hit the ground. Have you dummy tested this?
Yeah they definitely could do with a few links cut off!
Is it possible to do slow cooked pulled pork in the travel buddy?
Yes it is. I use an Oven bag and the meat is so tender. 4 hours at 200 degrees and it's done 😍😍
Definitely. Have done a few cracking pulled porks in the TB. As COSICAN said, bang your trimmed roast in an oven bag with some liquid stock/bbq sauce/onions/seasoning and spices 👌
@@WildTouring sound like im gonna need to get me self one and start playing with recipes. Ps. As always great video Mr, Mrs and Miss Wild
Were there no free camps around Samson?
There was a decent one near Cossack. But only a few bays and didn't want to risk having nowhere to stay if everything books out over school holidays.
Now that the restrictions are being lifted it’s a pity that your so far removed from the border...
Our episodes are quite far behind our actual travels now. We are in south west WA now and plan to cross over to SA this week 😊
So you are enjoying the light rain down here and not the flies up there. I would make a bolt for the border now. I can see in 11 days they will probably restrict movements again as they test those in quarantine and find there are cases getting through. Even 1 case in the open community will bring down the gate once again. Escape now while you have the opportunity 😄
When I was 15 I stayed at the pilbara camp school I dampier
Wife controls the finance, hubby controls the fine ants.
All borders are now open, will you be continuing your original plans now 👍🍻🇦🇺🥂
Not the whole way around, don't have the time now unfortunately! But we're close to the SA border at the moment, and pushing on that way.
