Wow it's an amazing trip and place also pretty much
Thank you so much! :)
Hi !!!! Just found your channel and watched this video, loved it 🥰. Excited now to go back to the beginning and binge my way through.
Thank you two dear ones for today's insight. Yeah, extremely hot nights like this don't necessarily happen in a van. Today we installed our Rock'n'Roll bench and now we sit pretty broken in the garden and drink a Ron Zacapa Rum and relax and watch your new clip. Thanks, see you soon. Best regards Marc & Christina
Aww thank you guys so much! That sounds like a great way to end a day of hard work on your van! ☺️
Oh my goodness, you are really showcasing these beautiful areas of NT. Couldn’t agree more with you re Mataranka v Bitter Springs. Your early to rise motto certainly pays off re less crowds. Graeme is almost convinced he should try to get up early!! Hopefully you’re enjoying some respite from the heat, now that you’re further south. Enjoy the East and West MacDonnell Ranges - amazing country. Hope you plan to visit Yulara too. Safe travels, and please keep the episodes coming! We’re loving them. 😘😘
Thanks Sue! We certainly pays off getting up before everyone else does! haha. And we are glad to say the evenings are much much cooler down south now which is absolutely wonderful. Can't wait to show you next weeks episode, the Mcdonnell ranges have been incredible!
Good to hear! Can’t wait for your next episode xx
Beautiful places you visited , all those watering holes were amazing! It sounds funny here in the states to go south to cool down, when its the exact opposite here, we go north to cool off! Happy exploring, you guys are covering so much ground, your roads go on forever, strait as a arrow! Thanks for another amazing episode!
Haha, it's funny how opposite everything is down here! Thanks so much for your support, we can't wait to share more of the outback with you! :)
NT looks beautiful guys! We understand why you are "rushing" it, it's a good idea to go North in cooler and less busy months. Looking forward to the next episodes :)
Thanks guys! Yeah we just want to do it properly, definitely have to go back there though. Thankfully the red centre has been much more bearable!
Oh my goodness it looks amazing!! I can’t wait to go someday !
Great vision. One question: Why didn't you sleep outside on hot nights in the inner part of a tent only to keep out any insects? You get the breezes then. Just make sure you wear an eye mask if you want to sleep past sunrise and ear plugs to take the edge off any noises. I sleep outside in summer in Victoria without a tent, just on a camping mattress on the grass, and always take a small tent for that when on the road.
Just loving your transition into NT and the spectacular locations you take us to .. can't wait for more.
Yeah we've really enjoyed it here, especially the red centre! Can't wait to share next week's episode with you! :)
Ahh we are dying to get to QLD and outback! We're in NSW at the moment and looking forward to the borders opening. Awesome episode!!
You'll love it! Thanks a lot guys:) Fingers crossed they'll open soon!
Wow what beautiful colours and clarity you captured in this episode. We were feeling rather hot just watching you trek around there. 🥵
Thank heavens for those fabulous waterfalls and amazing pools!
Enjoy the cooler southern area?!😃👍🏻
We certainly weren't prepared for those hot days and nights!! The waterholes were our saving grace! But we're happy to now be back further south, can't wait to share our next clip with you! x
Loving these videos, keep it up
Aw thanks so much Preston! Can't wait to share our next few videos from the red centre, it's absolute magic out here! :)
Nice 👍
Super loving your videos (still binge watching 😂) Can I ask Kendall where you got your creamy coloured jacket I saw in some videos...? 🙏 Would love a girly video showing what clothes you’ve found you need/want for van life. Xx
Aw thanks so much Jane! Are you talking about the pull-over one I’m wearing at the beginning of this episode? If so, it’s from Two Sparrow, a small Aus brand 😊 and good idea on creating a ‘clothing’ type video! Thanks so much for the feedback! xx
Great video again, Kendall and Glenn. Thank you for showcasing the great Australia. I watch a lot of travel vlogs and you guys are among the top. Very informative and always positive. Are you guys planning to do the Overland track? Let me know in case you will visit Canada in future. I will personally take you around the most beautiful province here British Columbia. All the best.
Thanks so much Ashish! That means so much :) Canada is definitely high on our list of places to visit, it looks so beautiful there!
♥️♥️♥️
for the tech geek in me, can i ask wht you edited this all on? Good work by the way :) I am currently exploring to see if we can do this around America once we the world settles down a bit.
Hey Danny! Thanks so much, we edit all our videos on Davinci Resolve :) finger's crossed you can get to exploring once everything settles a bit more in America!
watch out the yowies
I live in queensland
What van do you have??
What an amazing adventure you guys ar eon! It looks like such a beautiful region to explore. Keep on smiling and creating! If you get a chance, we'd be honored if you swung by our channel and checked out our latest upload as well!
All of these places are no drone zones. You really shouldn’t be flying drones at these spots even if no one is around. I really hate it when obnoxious drone owners ruin the experience for everyone else. They are like constant flies that just won’t bugger off.
We had a permit to fly in the national park and abided by the No-fly zones so not sure what the issue here is
