I spent two years living in Maun in the early 90's and travelled the whole area. Camped with a single cab Hilux with no AC, no power steering and no fridge. Just a swag and a cooler box. Definitely one of the highlights of my life.
“More important to nót see people than to see animals” must be one of the best phrases ever! 🙌🏼
Yep it's the best feeling rocking up to a camp site cracking a beer and rolling a smoke , then in the morning having a coffee with a smoke bloody beautiful 😊
When you're solo and remote, you are at your best. A bit lonely, paranoid, grumpy, expressive, and pure gold.
Andrew, When loneliness kicks in, you have such a captivating dreamy way of telling stories... very captivating ! thank you as always.
How this channel gets so few subs and clicks will forever remain a mystery to me.
This is some of the best Overland content on this platform.
The builds are of the same high quality as the videography.
I really love watching this channel with my family
me too. But I love my job, so won't complain.
Absolutely loved this one! Glad you have a wingman now.
Such an incredible life you are leaving Andrew,you inspire me a lot!
God I love this (and every) series!!
I can’t get enough
Grumpy old man with the wisdom to compare. 😂 very nice photo the giraffe must be the winner. Thanks again
I can only imagine how fantastic it would be to have a an elephant visit my campsite (referring to a non aggressive Elephant of course). Thank you Andrew
How ever much you imagine, it’s double 😁😁😁
@@markyeadon7271 👌
I must say, you are a wonderful passionate story teller. I travel with you on most of your expeditions.
I've loved this one from the time you took delivery of the vehicle in Pretoria
Excellent video Sir Andrew!
Hi Andrew, not a Red Duiker but a female Oribi. They tend to crouch when disturbed. In the mid 1970's there were a lot more to the South of Gweta but the numbers diminished in the 1980's. Thanks for evoking memories of my old stamping grounds well traveled in my 1974 SWB Land Rover.
Thank you for sharing. I wasn't sure what it was, just cross that it had been needlessly killed.
Totally agree with your comments ,a few unthinking people can spoil it for the rest. Great video
Enjoyed that.
Elephants are so impressive.
Giraffes àre really beautiful. Recently had a chance with grandchildren to feed a giraffe at the Western Plains Zoo at Dubbo in Australia. Giraffe eyelashes are so long.
that was fun. A few weeks/month ago i commented that you please don't become a "grumpy old man". When your face suddenly appeared on the srcreen telling that you don't become i was reminded of my comment. Funny Moment (i know that your telling wasn't because of my comment, but it was a funny moment anyway) ;)
Awesome Ep and spots, I to get lonely in the evenings and nights on my Solo Sorties away camping and fishing, Either up Cape York, Nhulunbuy or the kimberley. Last two trips but really one trip I did around 18,000ks and two months away.
More likely a steenbok, Red Duiker are found east of Botswana in KZN and Mozambique
thank you for video
Great story Andrew. Why don’t the Park Board put out instructions to visitors to not park so close to water holes
The Mr. Bean impression at 17:26 was magnifcient.
Is that the cartoon version?
If not already done, an African guide would be a handy course Andrew. I wonder if people entering parks should do a quick course on rules and etiquette for example, keep 300 metres from water holes and move from herds approaching. Just like you showed in your videos.

@@4xoverland Cool, your're on the ball.
The only way I managed to stay up beyond 8pm while camping alone in Botswana, was by watching episodes of a TV series I'd pre-downloaded before leaving Australia. Then I managed 8:30 or even 8:45!
G'day Andrew, thank you for the South Africa series it has me very interested. A quick question, I'm curious as to the step you have on the rear bar of the troopy. I'm currently doing a build on a troopy and I'm looking at rear step options. Can you enlighten me as to what brand and were I could find that fold down step.
Much appreciated in advance.
Stay safe 👍
Hi Andrew, we have a 2018 GXL Troopy and I’d love to know what that fold down rear step is?
some fly nets on the windows Andrew? They would improve your camp comfort greatly
You need a recording of lions roaring and some loud speakers to insure other humans don't camp anywhere near you.
Australian flies or African lions?
One more thing Andrew, are there "bogans - in all the good vehicle accessible camps" in Africa like they are in plague proportions in Australia?
"plague proportions". Have you even been to Australia? Or are you another South African trying to score points against it? Isn't the Rugby enough for you?
We live by the ocean. You see boater’s all the time with no regards for others or the sea life
If you ever want to overland across the entirety of Nevada, USA. Let me know.
smoke a cigar man... nothing better on a campsite then a good stogie
Andrew, you would make a good Camel Advert, reminds me of that old time advert, with doctors rrecommending Camel cigarettes
Is it just me or did Jeremy lose weight?
Just to add my bit I travel extensively in rural / game areas and it sometimes happens that you hit an animal without necessarily being a dick.
Not at sensible speeds. These animals are incredibly agile and do not run towards a vehicle like a roo.
Too high a speed is definitely the issue here. He probably saw the little animal beforehand and just hit it regardless. Why speed in these pristine wilderness areas? Could've been under the influence of alcohol as well, most probably 😠🤬
Escape from the rat race and Visit Namibia #Namibia
Not to be a dick 😂 is that not a Steenbok?
Andrew I respect you and I love your videos, but please do not use foul language! My wife and kids watch this with me.
message and received and understood. Id have to go back and see when I did, but I apologise. Andrew.
