Our most watched Episode - z • BEACH CAMPS ON THE NIN...
It all started when…
In December 2015 we packed up and hit the road for what we thought would be a 12 month Lap of Oz. Fast forward 4 years and we decided to create a video series of our travels to show you all what it’s like to live life on the road!!
Cheers - Justin & Bec
Congrats Justin & Bec & to your lovely kids too what an absolute ripper of a asset you bought its a luxury mate & i hope you make heaps of trips around this beautiful country & keep entertaining us i am looking forward to it & a big thumbs up from your fans in India Cheers :)
Thanks mate
@@TripInAVan If possible upload some lockdown workout vids i am interested :)
What a gorgeous family and I really appreciate the love, respect and affection you show the family Mister. Safe and happy travels!
For Easter we used to go down to McLaren Vale and have a Easter egg hunt in the Hardy’s maze with all the kids, there’s about 20 of them between 5 families
Dunno who had the biggest smiles, Dad with the first fish in the tinny
Mum with the new van, kids in their new bunks.Great episode thanks.
Gary thanks mate
Mate use the half hot plate on the Weber as an anchor for the tinny and get yourself a Weber frypan. Awesome bit of kit for doing eggs and omelettes on the bbq. Loving the Vids, hopefully not too much longer and you guys can get back on the road. Cheers.
Another ripper video guys. Funny, we were staying in that same park on (what looks like) the same site as you, last year.
I think you all are the ones that are bloody Legends you put out so many great videos there is not one video that I have not given five stars I hope one day next year if things go well I get to meet all you five in my travels next year thanks again Chris from Geelong
Wow, thank you! Glad you’re enjoying the vids mate
I do Justin ever since I started following you you've given great advice great tips for when I head out and travel on my own next year hopefully I get to catch up with you mate for a beer and definitely a good fishing trip
If you can spare the room I'd suggest to carry MACS ultra film engine flush for the outboard. It removes all the salt and puts a protective coating through the engine. I run a ski boat in the Maroochy River here on the Sunny Coast. High RMPs for barefoot water skiing up around 4800-5000RPMS. Engine has been rebuilt to ensue everything was OK and more of a preventative thing and no rust etc. You could use just a 1L bottle and it would do you oh say 10-20 flushes depending on how much you need to use for your small engine. I would also throw in inox to spray the engine too. Ohh I forgot too you can buy the MACS from Whitworth down ar Wrana/Kawana which is just over the Mooloola River at Mooloolabah
The kids excitement with the bunks... the horizon is so much closer when you are that little.
Actually Justin, seeing you’re on the Noosa River, did you guys go up stream and see Richard Brandon’s personal Island,‘beautiful 😊
We did see that yeah, crazy
Justin, perfect Falcon on Billy. Like the reverse layout inside the van. Kitchen looking over the outdoor area instead of the neighbors one.🤘🤘
😂😂
What an uplifting Video to watch in these times, congratulations Justin, Bec and your children for showing this crazy world how life should be, truly inspirational.
It was great to see the gear you carry with you and as we all know, its all about weight, Tania and I have been using the Fusion Lock gear for a while and find them great, so simple and sturdy.
I must say that we look up to you as full time "Vanners" as we are and you have been inspirational in us making this decision to be on the road full time, we are on the move again in the morning, heading off to another Free Camp in SA. PS- Love your set up, simply the best.
Take Care in your travels Guys
Thanks guys, and safe travels.
What a good family. Enjoying life with kids. What a life.
Awesome - you guys are naturals and very good at this. Really enjoyable. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it mate, thankyou
Trip In A Van - RoadTrip Australia Series just bought an Atlas tool roll using your discount code. Thanks. Hope it helps both of us!
Great Vid Guys, perler spot to be in lockdown, someone mightv'e already said it in the comments. Just be wary of your size limits on Flattys in QLD Bud, Duskys have to be 40cm min and 75cm Max, either way they were good lizards and the Golden Trev, Mate!!!!!!!! they rock aye, I chase em off the beach at Inskip Point, bloody good chewin too, my best is 13kg. Enjoy folks and cheers for the vids
what a magical place
I’d happily swap with yas.
Melbourne has been rather chilly.
Lovin the new van guys & seeing how happy Bec & the kids are was absolutely worth it.
I get so much joy from seeing others happy.
You guys deserve it.
Stay cool my Leyland Brothers Family. 🤙🏽
Walkabout With Kira cheers mate

anishkharar1 cheers mate, appreciate it
Great van guys, I wasn't expecting Bec to show a garbage bin cupboard.....I was waiting for the big reveal wine cabinet.
Wayne Spencer 😂😂 a bit sad I know, but so functional !!!
Well done with the van looks great cant wait for the walk around.
Hey Guys, Have watched all your episodes and you have inspired us.Went to Toowoomba camping show yesterday and bought a camper trailer. Caravan to follow in a couple of years so we are absorbing all you put up.Loved the tool Video.
Cheers
Lol at the backup BBQ chook at 11:46. Bec really had no faith in you mate.

Love to know where you were locked down with your new van - where on sunshine coast please?? love this episode and info !!
Noosa river holiday park
@@TripInAVan thanks guys, THAT is our fav in Noosa, looked different with hardly anyone there!!!!! We pick up our new Sunland van next March (!!!!) and hope to book ahead for there! Just watched your amazing Cruise on Whitsundays - love your videos!!!
Great video. We have been touring and living in our caravan for the past 10 years now. So we know what is like to live in a our caravan. I dont think I can ever live in a house again. We are currently in Karratha, exploring the Pilbara region.....the weather is perfect here 28 degrees during the day, but the nights are getting cooler down to 16 degrees, but at least you have water views. If we have itchy feet we go camping with our oztent...plenty of watering holes, beaches and rivers to camp here. Keep up the good work. :-)
Well Hi J & B had heaps of questions but this vid has answer most of em. Love the 3 showman they are so natural, specially Charilie Bear. Bit like her Mum and man isnt she a keeper. No circlip pliers you will get caught out one day Justine, Love the new winch hook. Been out of automotive game for a few yrs with retirement nd ya get out of touch with whats available in the new bits and pieces dept. Half way through watching the early clips . Take care and thanks for both your efforts in making the vids Best Wishes Pete
Cannot wait for the caravan tour, I’m like... look at all that custom storage😍😍 That huge kitchen window! And kitchen bench!😂😂 I know, I’m more interested in the decore, than the tools... something for everyone in this vid. Xx
That was a great watch!! Thanks heaps and be safe:) That set up is all time!!! It was great to see the excitement on all your faces. Looking forward to seeing more fish in the tinny:D
Thankyou
Thanks for the video. As always a very enjoyable pass time for us to watch your adventures. You are great ambassadors for this beautiful country.
Love the new setup but the tinny is the icing on the cake looking forward to the new fishing channel😁
Cheers bud🍺
Triple bunk bedding sizes? Hey guys love the new van. We just bought one ourselves with a triple bunk. We went and bought some bedding for the triple bunk and found the don’t fit and all over the place. How did you go with sheets fitting and duvet fitting. Would love to hear about what sizes your went with to select correct sheets and covers. Thanks from Mike.
What a great life!!! I have watched this vid twice, dreaming of the day when I will be travelling.
Dennis Calvert cheers mate
Happy and safe travels TIAV crew 😊 A good fisherman catches, cleans and cooks their fish, so good job Justin! I had some Baldchin Groper cooked in beer batter yesterday and it was effing delish lol.
Mark Gardiner oh baldy is unreal, we got one spear fishing last year 🤙
Hey guys been watching your channel for a year...yeah just discovered hadn’t subscribed...fixed that. Been wondering how you going...was thinking about a home school one, as we’ve used you guys as examples for our kids to try and explain that the timetable is flexible and what they can do to combine lessons and home life...cheers ( your kids have a following with our kids)😂
Thanks mate, home school coming soon
hey guys i am glad you are safe and i love watching your vids you always make me smile. justin is such a great husband getting bec a nice fish, just a tip for small fish when you want to mesure them or stop them from wrigiling put them upside down. (belly up) it will stop them from flapping.
love you guys
What an absolutely wonderful family, so great to see aussies, you all rock!
Okay guys & Gals were hook were with you now. Happy Trails
Everything looks great! Well done you guys 👌
Looking forward to some fishing vids along with your travels.
Awesome! Thank you!
Hey - great video guys.... really enjoyed it..
In your tool kit... i didnt see and screw drivers?
3 easter eggs at a time.... torture!!!
Loved the new winch head!!
I'd love to know more about getting your tinny on and off the car and getting it to the water.. The front stay / stand for the tinny looks very simple.... is it solid enough the prevent it from getting bumped over accidentally?
Love the comments about mum eating all the chocolate!! classic... "mum ... stop it!!!"" hahaha... your kids are great characters!
Keep up the great work!
Thanks mate. I do carry a screwdriver with multiple interchangeable heads.
The front stand on the tinny is just the t bar that’s used when loading and unloading tinny on roof loader. I’ll have heaps more info on the boat in future eps..
Love the new van , cooking on the go tips , the rad chocky treats and the gear , you guys rock
Pete Croft thanks mate, appreciate the support
Another great video I think anyone with a van /camper or whatever is so keen to get out traveling again I know I can’t wait to get our van back on the road 👍 keen to see part 2 if possible are you able to provide some feedback on the railblaza products in your tinny ? cheers & keep up the great work 👍👍👍
Cheers, The railblaza gear is insane hey! it's made my tinny so easy to fish out of.
Hey Justin you look like the cat that got the cream getting your first catch in the new tinny and Bec was just so excited to finally get some freshly cooked fish. Will definitely try your beer batter Looks 😋 Cheers Gaza
Gary Roberts thanks mate

Its nice to get a reply back @@TripInAVan
Did you do a review of a foldup camp chair in a recent episode. This one folded down to a small pack and had a swivel base. I am trying to find the review and thought it may have been from you. If you did, would you be able to let me know in which episode so I can revisit it.. Many thanks. Love watching your series.
Don’t think it was us....
You have a very beautiful family. God bless you all
Thankyou

Awesome video again - many thanks from us in NZ - we cant wait to get back to our own van life on the East coast of Aussie later this year if we can - we were sent home for NZ lock down while starting a six week caravan trip in the South Island of NZ - we were into our first week!! :(......anyway onward and upward !! We look forward to seeing why and how you chose the brand caravan you did as we are looking to buy new in Aussie in the near future - do they sponsor you?
Darren Stewart cheers mate. We bought our caravan, we do work with them to provide content with our van, but we always buy all our gear👌💪
Great vid guys, and thanks for the Junee choc factory info. We are on to it 👍😁
Yummmmmm
Wonderful film thanks from lock down Sheffield England 🏴
Another awesome ep guys! Keep them coming! Living the dream through your eyes 👊🏾
Aaron Muttukumaru thanks mate
🤷♂️ we’re in lock down too 😐 in Mornington Vic., this the June 2021 lock down 🤨., ( from Darwin NT,) , can’t get home, enjoying your trips/builds. Still trying to work out how to follow in sequence 😬 but will work it out 😎👍
G'DAY Guys,love the new van & is just great to see,the Toyota emblem on shots of tow rig,a couple of hints,from my over 40 years as a tradesman, try replacing WD40 with INOX,you will never go back to any dewatering \lubricant again! 2= after a lifetime of Flathead fishing &decades on Sunny coast,you have likely inadvertently discovered the secret to catching flathead, always stand offshore at least 50_100 MTR ,then cast toward shore,and return bait/lures back in a jerking motion,5_10 MTR at a time,3= for Bream/Trevally, buy 5_6 of the biggest prawns you can find,Salt dry with butcher's Salt,cut into 25_30 mm pieces, then freeze in Zip lock baggies,perfect bait for younger fishermen to handle onto 1\0 hooks,3=with beer batter,try addition to flour before adding beer,curry powder,chilli powder or herbs\spices to taste,4=don't forget to include in tinny equipment, 2ltrs of water per day,in your case a 10 Ltd designated drinking water Jerry can? 5=consider when heading north,going via Gympie_Kilkivan_Gayndah_Biloela (my hometown)_Rockhampton_etc,as always, Kindest Regards,Dave McLaughlin Queensland Australia
Must be awesome to travel aus full time so jealous awesome rig and van setup also!
Wilbur love it, cheers mate
New van looks awesome! but i noticed you dont have any fridge vents? it looks like doors instead.
Neil Pitcher yeah, so it’s a compressor fridge which runs off 12/240 volt. There is a whirly bird on the roof for ventilation. There is 2 hatches behind the fridge that cdd as n be opened in really hot weather but otherwise leave shut, great way to stop dust entry while travelling
Great content, the tool roll is a must have for organising the essentials.
It makes life easy on the road having it organised hey
Thanks, enjoyed the latest video, lots of money spent on new gear, I think the tinny was the main purchase and purpose. Keep going.
Thanks for watching!
Never really been to Anaconda until last week buying a bike for my Little. Its my new camping store along with Tent Wold ..
Love you guys enjoy the new kit
How is this all funded? Work wise? Just well off? Sponsors? Rentals? Sorry if youve mentioned before. Seeing the new 200 chop and new van is a good 250k. Heres me slaving away hahaha living the dream guys jealious 😍👌
Moses1988 work, savings, partnerships 🤙

Thank you for sharing your journey has always great video!!

Where will you guys settle down? I assume Queensland because its lovely and warm. But i know you've also said you have family in Melbourne.
Definitely north of Brisbane
great stuff guys.The set up looks awesome !! has the van got disc brakes ? what suspension set up is it ? great to see you catching fish in the gun tinny {finally}....stay safe
Phil Caruana cruisemaster ATX full air with disc brakes
Could you
us how many watts of solar you have on the new van and how many amps of battery. Are your batteries lithium?
If you have a Surburban HW with an anode, could you show people how to change it and install a new one and have the right size socket. We have had to show many people how to change them but most of all a lot of people didn't even know that they had to change the anode or that their van even had something such as an anode. Some people don't know how to clean out the buildup of calcium in their HW tank.
Good on ya you’re living the dream
Sunday just got better 👌
Enjoy🍺
I love that you got a tiny!
me and you both!!!
kitchen looks more spacious now
We can’t to escape the house as well. Sunny Coast ain’t that bad!
