    I’m not normally one to comment but I do have to say this....... I think your videos are more valuable than you may realise. Not only are they entertaining, they are great for people’s mental health. I know they are for mine. They calm my mind after a busy day at work, the usual worrying about money, energy prices soaring, corrupt governments etc, etc. I watch these videos and realise that life isn’t just all about the bullshit we deal with, there’s a whole world out there and it’s beautiful. Well done Liam, well done.

    Anybody that thinks you need everything to weigh 0.2 grams for a quick daytrip and eat only freeze dried food and have a £3000 tent to save the extra 12 grams to go on a day hike needs to see videos like this.

    Dinner is looking awesome man!
    I perfected the one burner bangers n mash with onion gravy.
    Step 1, boil water for mash and gravy, put it in a flask mug.
    Step 2, brown the sausages (they don't need to be fully cooked), then set aside on plate.
    Step 3, slowly fry the onions till soft, adding a bit of sugar, then flour.
    Step 4, add some hot water from the flask mug to the pan, with a veggie stock cube, mix well. I like to add Henderson relish at this point.
    Add the sausages back to onion gravy pan and simmer till sausages are cooked.
    Step 5, if the flask mug is a good one, the water should still be hot enough to make some smash on the plate.
    Add the sausages and gravy.
    Proper nice one burner meal

And enjoy some good ale.Lot's of camp sites,hostels and guest houses if you are not as hard core as our Liam :).

    Hello, Liam! I am a viewer from China. I love your videos, not only because of the stunning view but also the way you recorded it. You recorded the sound of you walking on the road which is amazing ASMR and very relaxing. I recently have read the Living Mountain, written by a Scottish writer Nan Shepherd. The book is about her hiking experiences in the Cairngorm Mountains. Have you ever been there? Are you planning to vlog your hiking journey there? I'm curious and looking forward to that.

    I usually watch your videos via my console so commenting is tricky, but I’m on my phone now just because I wanted to say how much of a pleasure it is to watch these videos. As a 17 year old I’m very limited still where I can go and I’ve always wanted to do exactly what you are doing so it’s a blessing that your Scotland to England video popped up on my recommended a month or two back, your videos bring a happy and spontaneous view on camping and hiking which I find difficult to see in many other outdoor based creators. I love what you are doing, I hope you have a nice day.
