If you have any questions - please do get in touch.
A real person with the occasional swear word. A great smile and other facial expressions that set the scene. Dancing in the landscape, being inspiring and factual. She makes me smile and laugh. She takes you on the adventure whether you want to go or not, at the end it feels like a shared experience. "The Force Is Strong With This One."
I always add some powdered milk and sugar in with the oats. So when you add water it tastes a bit better.
Agreed! 🙋♂️
Happy to know that someone else like to have a proper porridge for breakfast! 😋
Just instead of sugar I'm using a honey sachets.
Hi!! Have just discovered your channel in the past few days and you are so hilarious I love it!! Great vids and I have subbed 😍
Hey - thank you so much. Lockdown's giving me the kick I needed to edit and upload more. Thank you for watching and sub'ing :-)
met a NZ lass on the SNT going fully plastic free, we hiked into a coop starving i pillaged like a pro and she struggled to find stuff that wasnt wraped in plastic. really opened my eyes to the issue! good look on ya hike and sweet vid going over ya gear! happy trails dude!!
Some amazing ideas which will help me help Mother Earth 🌍 thank you very much ☘️🐺☘️
Brilliant video, gave a great insight into how to go plastic free and delivered in a fun way 😊 great work.
Nail on the head! I think this is why I have never successfully published a full kit video! It does feel bloody weird and I don't think I've ever tried to take a photo of my kit without having some kind of crisis of existence! God job!
So very happy to have found your videos on the Tube. Fresh, honest, informative and entertaining. Keep it up. The plastic in tea bags was a real shocker to me too when I found that out in 2019. I'm 61 years old, and the guilt of all those years of 'cuppas', drove me to buy a crockery tea pot and loose leaf tea.When hiking I settle for coffee and always look forward to that first cuppa when down off the hills.
Your videos are really good. I love your sense of humour! 😂😊
Great vid and explanations on how you are accomplishing it. I love your genuineness and free spirit on how you do your vids. Thanks for bringing all of us along.
The outtakes keep me hooked - nice job on plastic free, its really really hard to achieve, I try to do it every trip. I use the compostable ziplocks, very useful of course limited life but better than plastic. stay plastic free as much as you can. great vid as normal
i love your energy. Am currently binging your adventures
Binge watching your channel, your sense of humor is awesome. It’s lifts my spirits and my face hurts from laughter, keep up the good work . The adventures are so cool, oh and the outtakes had my side cramping up from laughing, 👍
Absolutely loved it, i was laughing so much at the out takes. Inspired to go hiking again.
I use the dog poo bags too, but also pick the poo up and carry it out. It's less hassle than trying to bury the bloody stuff! And it has the added bonus of keeping everyone away... STINKS! 😂
Love your channel, makes me want to get outside exploring even more than i already did!
😆 Just loving your videos, great sense of humour, daft as they come coupled with your expressions and lovely accent...
👍
Your bloody brilliantly, missed the outtakes the first time around - almost pissed myself laughing, we need that with all the craziness going on.
“Scoopy Shop” 😂 my Nan used to take me to these...didn’t realise they were still around!
With you on the chocolate ginger..that’s stuff rocks 🤤
Sockpan choc ginger is da bomb!!
I watched a video the other day of a guy who had a dehydrator. They made their own food to take hiking. Love your videos btw. Finished your Cape Wrath series last night- loved it!
haha the outtakes are the best bit
I second the milk powder suggestion I agree it makes the oats taste much nicer. Absolutely love your attitude and videos - keep it up. 👍
Nice job I’m new to your channel I live in the states on the east coast and I have been hiking and camping for more than 30 years and I’m still learning so your videos are great thx
I found this most enjoyable, but then again, I also really liked Will Smith's Wild Wild West.
Adorable and inspirational all in one quirky integral package 👏😁🏴
Most times when backpacking, you need to carry in water. So it is not any lighter to carry light weight freeze dried just add water foods. So just carry good canned foods, beef stew. Chicken stew or even thick soups loaded with chunks.....the camp trip is two, three days... you can carry enough food in pack to get you through. And the water because you need to drink a lot of water...save it for your hike.
You are so beautifully real. Thank you for giving a shit about the environment!!! Great video!
Great video love the out takes
Absolutely love your channel ! Funny as fook, unendingly cheerful & actually you are as hard as nails. This was a really interesting vid. Recommend you dump teabags & trendy coffee. I use instant (powdered) tea an add extra powdered milk & a couple of teaspoonfuls of sugar. Quick & convenient & you can use warm/hot water & not have to boil it. How about reducing your plastics in general ? I remember (i'm late 50's..) all leather boots (apart from soles & lace hooks), wool clothing ( better than synthetics as never hold body odour) & i still use a canvas rucksack with metal frame & leather straps. Ventile anorak for top layer. I occasionally still use an old Blacks cotton tent. Weight is higher but just walk slower 😁 It's not all about ultralight & speed. Keep doing what you do 👍🏻
Just came across your channel . Love in it your funny also .can't wait to go camping myself in Wales .woop woop 🙌
Have just discovered your channel - lots of fun and you do make me laugh 🙂
Sarah you should be blogging all the time you are so funny..
simon jandrell imagine the outtakes 🤦🏼♀️
@@FitforAdventure get them in i luv your blogs
Please do more outtakes! Looking forward to wild camping again now.
Interesting to see who you have swapped so much out for alternatives
Great vid, as a pro photographer laying out stuff to photo is a pain, I spent over an hour photographing a paper bag yesterday!
The osmo audio sounds great. sick video
I realise this video is super old so you probably already know by now, but if not, the teapigs inside bag isn't actually plastic it's made from wood pulp!
Watching the end of the video reminds me when I had an airsoft channel lol. I used to do exactly the same things, strange faces, odd songs about messing up. Looking back its probably gold, but at the time I thought who the hell would want to watch that.
Love the video some great tips! Thank you 😬
You're so cute & funny, your channels becoming more addictive than drug's lol.
Hilarious again. Love your channel!
Yaaaaas!
Fab vlog Sarah. Thanks for sharing some of your plastic free finds. I am intrigued by the deodorant, I must look that one up.
But just how long did it take you to film that? The out-takes are hilarious.
Full Stop Next Chapter the deodorant is really good I’m still using it! The video took.... like a whole day 😂
Your funny lady, nice video, I'm here new friend. God bless you
Never laughed so much
Best ending 👌🏻
Funny as fuck. Loved it !!
Love your videos nice to see someone being themselves.
Have you done any of the Cambrian way?
Loads of love from North Wales, Rhosllanerchrugog. Say that with a mouthful of peanuts, 🤣❤️
Google V60 coffee dripper, so much easier than the aero press imo. Great videos btw!
BTW, I know this video is 2 years old, but I'll comment it anyway. Have you thought about bringing loose tea and brew it with some kind of small filter? You can then ditch the tea leaves anywhere since they are, well, leaves, rince the filter and that's it. No tea bags, no ridiculous companies that brand their packaging "plastic free" but wrap everything in plastic anyways, and better tea for cheaper as a bonus!
Granola & Coconut? Add some powdered milk(Marvel ) to it then add the warm water to it, Worth a try?
There's a guy/bushcrafter you might want to try and find he's got he dose a zero plastic/natural fiber camping videos and to make coconut milk you just water coconut and strain it out so that granola might be a good shout if you add more to it or find Nido full fat milk powder because it's awesome
Probably already been said, but those tea pig bags are compostable plastic. Made of plant starch.
The first 15 seconds of this video.
Subbed. 😂
Have to say it again great stuff not many people can say poo on camera as many times as that anyway haha
Just found your channel last few weeks, you a fucking awesome. 😂😂❤️❤️👍👍
SHHNAAAAACKS!!
HaysieBoy you know it 😂
You don't take a cheese board up a mountain?
What do you do after dessert?
What do you think all that Welsh slate is for! Nature provides 👌🏻
POO IN DA BAG!!!!
Hello I subscribed to your channel, a short while ago. I've been watching your videos. I like the way you talk.
Question even though you say what your putting things in your pack, it would have been nice if you would have mentioned you're Sleeping bag. Because I did check out the Sleeping bag that you mentioned in your last video. It was synthetic and a little bulky and it cost a bit. As far as tents I noticed that yours was a framed tents. Unlike some of the other Tent that ate Frameless Tents that weigh 3 lb and use Walking Poles.
The Poles are probably a pound which makes it 4 lb. What does your tent weigh my two men tent is
5 pounds 6 oz.
If you don't mind me asking your Cooking System 🤔
hahaha the out takes im dead
😂 Brilliant 😁
Bet u pooed in the bag!!!💩🤣🤣🤣😷.👍
A new subscriber.
I love Nandos. Just wanted to say that.
Aldi shopping bags are compostable and cheaper than poo bags, just a tip 👌
Narrator: "She pooed in the bag"
OMG You are hilarious 🤣 just wondering, how did you acquire that Nandos chicken though #NickedIt! 🤣🤣
Mr David Morris maaaaaaaaybe, I mean you pay enough for the food you’re practically entitled to take the table chicken thing 😂
I had to subscribe to you, because you are a comedian :) !! Wish you could join me for at least some of my 280 mile Cambrian way mountain hike! to make me laugh through some of the difficult misty wet days! seeing as I have been live In South Wales for a while now! I thought I would try the most difficult route in Britain apparently!! because of the ascents and descents, ending up climbing and descending 32000 or 34000 metres? in total overall! and navigating parts in boggy misty wetlands! I have the wooden toothbrush, however lots it like I lose all small things! I will get another from my sustainable shop 50 metres down my road! where I buy all of my pulses lentils beans dried! and nits trail mix and alternative cleaning products from white wine vinegar and bicarbonate soda instead of bleach! and many alternative products I use in daily life, sadly on my long distance hikes the dried coconut, pumpkin seeds some nuts will be all I will be taking from there, oh and tomato puree organic, so I can blend in wild garlic and garlic bulbs to my cous cous meals with a few dried chilli's! Ahh also go to your local Sainsburys express/ local, they sell salads super-light-weight wooden cutlery! I just take a load and fill my bag no one has told me off! I hope I can find green leafy vegetable's on my journey, from co ops I find rarely maybe 4 or 5 times through the journey! I think I will be fortunate enough when going through woodland to pick wild garlic leaves and a small (plastic bag) for stinging nettles( tastes like cooked spinach) and good for (hayfever) to mix with cous cous! I would also use plastic zip bags then for camera equipment electronics power packs! sadly in some cases re usable! plastic is good, and my neck A4 rain sheet protector! for my zoomed printouts of the most obscure and crazy navigating, Cambrian way, I am in some ways more scared of it than the 5 national parks I hiked in Norway! last Autumn many trails ended up iced over with 2 to 5 metres of snow I failed the 3 long hikes out of 7! because it was very hard to navigate and sleeping in -5 -20C wind-chill in a 3 season 2 man lightweight tent was not sufficient even for an iceman like myself! Love the paper food ready meals I will add them to my list not sure if Ocado sell anything like that! I can at least burn them with tissue, I have burnt plastic/paper food waste, in the past! but the next day I have to take the lump of plastic on the ground in my waste bag but at least its far less crap to carry! I hope you have some fantastic routes for this year planned :) Cwtches
So, your'e OK with burning plastic, and
releasin' the toxic into our environment then, ? .
@@paulburke9198 well most of our plastic goes to poor countries in South East Asia and they burn it outside at a mega huge disposal area and the poor neighbouring towns inhale clouds of our toxic waste!
Did you poo in a bag in the end? I am trying to come up with a poop system for in the tent 😐. Also you must be the only female who doesn't have loads of cushions in her bedroom.
Heeeeeee !=8)
Dear Miss Fidget, how many times does one girl need ro sit down and readjust before filming begins. Have a word.
Dear Miss Indulgent, if anybody ever tells you that chocolate ginger is made for sharing call a doctor as they're obviously not well in the head..
Dear Miss Informative, teabags have plastic in them? WTF.
Dear Miss Poop n Scoop.......nuff said, best not dwell.
Dear Miss Sparkle, you can clean your teeth by eating a sweet? Who knew?
Dear Miss Sarah, another amusing but informative video - keep them coming.
Boot review?
You are deffo going to poo in the bag 🤣🤣🤣. Good luck
Shame on you for stealing the Nandos Chicken. Shame.
Cheeses lol
I new you was a Sarah I swear 🧠🙃
Why not just poop in the bag? seems like a great hands free idea to me.
Have to say it again great stuff not many people can say poo on camera as many times as that anyway haha
