⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. Then we took our van further than she had ever been before to the very beautiful Turkey. Enroute, we stopped off in Spain for a few weeks where we experienced every van lifers worst nightmare, we were robbed and they stole all valuables in our van. But then we were back on our feet, fully MOT’d and back on the road through Europe before we experienced another vanlife nightmare... our van caught fire!! After the trauma of that we had a massive change of plan and made our way to Japan. We enjoyed a three-month Japanese Adventure and then got back to Martha for some new European Adventures. After an incredible three-month Scottish road trip, we have now packed up our van and are heading to Australia for a new van life adventure!

"Please stay on path" ... LOL. Tourist centres here are a riot. THE PATH is where snakes go to sleep in the sun.

🤣🤣🤣

[@racheln5749]

“Is this what it feels like to be a cows butthole?”😂😂😂 Philly= handsome hillphilly. Moon landing=real. You guys are so resilient. You somehow stay positive and find humor in even the roughest moments. I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again- favorite KZbinrs!!! Sorry for the scary experience and please continue to stay safe out there in the crazy outback❤️

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Rachel, really appreciate you saying that ❤️🙏

[@bernietaylor2344]

Sorry guys I'm playing catch up with your videos but am enjoying each one. I'm surprised you've survived this long Can't wait to see the rest. Also good to get a honest viewpoint from someone who is down to earth and not presenting a dressed up image to get hits on their sight. Happy travels.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Bernie 🥰🥰glad you are getting caught up

[@lostlangley]

Have you read Tracks?? Starting from Alice Springs a woman walks across the outback with camels to get to the Indian Ocean. Its also a film if you're not big reader! Hugely inspiring read. My favourite book ever! Hope you manage to stay cool 😊

[@phillyandkeely]

That sounds like such an interesting read, I will have to try find it in a shop over here

[@mogsev1006]

I watched the movie it was good.

[@EAGA304]

Fake. We are on a Philly and Keely binge watch! Found you guys researching for our trip to scotland. Keep up the great work!

[@phillyandkeely]

Aww thanks so much guys ❤️❤️

[@phillyandkeely]

Scotland is fab you will love it!

[@donnajohnson9324]

Thanks for coming to Australia and sharing your journey and thoughts with us❤😊

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Donna ❤️❤️ been such an experience! Glad to share it with everyone 🥰

[@MelG-ut3hs]

I could never cope with that heat. Good on you both. Hope those solar panels get fixed.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Mel, the heat is brutal, still no solar panels, but soon!

[@catjohnson7714]

Soul destroying to have the solars ripped off... hoping you can get them fixed soon. I cant remember what they were fixed on with...our rigid ones are glued. Ps) Keely I think you look cute in your hat. Xx

[@phillyandkeely]

Aww thanks so much Cat ❤️ panels were bolted to roof rack, but it broke the plastic around the fixing and ripped right off. When we get to somewhere we can buy replacements I think Philly might go rigid next town

[@bethcollier3789]

You kids are so great. How resilient are you in that moment, wind surfing past an outback truck, losing the connection to your power source. Seriously your lives in jeopardy with the risk of no cold water. Go ahead and cry, I would. Moon landing real, Aussies leading the space race - never. How many flies will you be eating before your road trip is over? Philly handsome, hat or no hat, Keely fashion conscious in colour coordinating socks and shorts, so freaking cute. The corks swinging from the hat brims do work and keep flies away from the face. Love ya, Stay safe, keep driving.

[@CandySoulAndSoil]

Hats with corks …. Now I understand that! The corks are the cows tails. Stay safe you 2❤

[@phillyandkeely]

Exactly!

[@MrFloris]

Ok, offline responsibilities done, time to catch up more outback videos. “He went into my eyeball”, haha, already a gold quote. That’s just the intro

[@phillyandkeely]

🤣🤣👀👀🪰🪰

[@MrFloris]

Sheer. What an ending, stay safe, and I can only imagine the next couple of videos are going to be quite a thing.

[@phillyandkeely]

Yeah the outback is defo an intense place to exist haha

[@MrFloris]

@@phillyandkeely ill stay away 👀🦋🌷🙈

[@xixoxixoxi]

😂 We did warn you of the heat and flys in the outback. Glad to see you got hats and sunscreen and stocked the van with water and supplies and take fuel seriously. Electronics won't work in the Australian heat so paper maps and talking to locals is the key. Keep going 💪 as it'll be an experience like no other. I've seen two road trains sandwich a car, so keep clear of them. The outback forces you to have a plan B, C & D.

[@phillyandkeely]

Flip me roadtrain sandwich sounds horrific, now add that to my phobia of them 🤣🤣🤣

[@jeffreyskinner6281]

Damn! The Outback is serious. Hope you guys are safe and cool...love following you on these crazy (dangerous) adventures.

[@dib4152]

Yeah, we're prob all a little bit worried about these two right now. I'm sure it's because they are so light hearted and jokey all the time... But I tell myself they have good brains in their heads and good feet in their shoes... like Dr. Seuss said.. right? 😅❤

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Jeffrey ❤️

[@phillyandkeely]

We have good brains in our heads most of the time 🤣🤣

[@lifesahobby]

Pro tip for sleeping in the heat . Tske your bed sheet to the shower in the morning , get it wet , ring it out and fold it , preferably place it in the fridge all day , then just before you go to sleep put it over you , by morning it will be dry and you will be cool all night . You dont need a fridge . Just the wet in the sheet is enough , the evaporation of the water from the sheet will create a refridgeration effect . Evaporation = cooling .

[@phillyandkeely]

That sounds genius!

[@lifesahobby]

@@phillyandkeely there is a sweet spot of wet verses uncomfort . A damp sheet rather than a wet sheet . You'll need to experiment with it . Obviously a soaking towel is going to not evaporate as much as a thin bed sheet . I learned this trick in 52 degrees Celsius in Arizona ., taking the sheet out of the refrigerator and putting it on the bed before sleep was heaven . I used a fan , but I don't think you need a fan .. you may need some ventilation . Let me know if it works in the van . ❤️❤️ From Dublin

[@andrewa7430]

Sadly, that type of heat in the outback, during the summer months, is no where near unprecedent. Plan your travels to either stay at a caravan park or stay near a body of water that is crocodile free, so that you can both cool off. Also, buy a portable car tyre inflator (compressor) so that tyres can be deflated on the corrugations and sandy sections and pumped up as required. Double or triple your water carrying ability, too.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much for the advice Andrew ❤️❤️🙏🙏 we will defo be taking it on board 🥵

[@anniedavis4569]

Loved your video but them flies were bad like the midges back home. Yes Philly is handsome with the hat and ye are a lovely couple. Frightening about the solar panels so please be careful

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Annie ❤️ I think the Scottish midge might still be worse haha

[@sofarokintn8166]

Great hats both of you!

[@phillyandkeely]

❤️❤️❤️ thankyou

[@kaz.murdoch]

BTW, there's a funny, feel good movie called The Dish loosely based on Australia's involvement in the moon landing. It's filmed in Parkes NSW, where the satellite dish still is!

[@phillyandkeely]

Ok we will have to watch this ❤️

[@christaallen2105]

Man you guys are some real troopers because I could not do that heat and Flys lol. Hope you can get your solar panels fixed quickly. Stay safe ❤❤.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much ❤️🙏

[@kristingrounds4163]

I live in Arizona and we had 55 days of temps at 110 or higher some were at 122. I have a pool and A/C in the house but it was brutal that is 44-50C. I like the hat on Philly and I like yours too Keely. As far as your question about the moon I think it was real. Stay safe our there!!

[@phillyandkeely]

Wow Kristin, Arizona sounds brutal! But a pool sounds awesome 🥰

[@88jerryw88]

Best tip for road trains if to get as far over to the side of the road as you can.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much for the advice Jerry ❤️❤️🙏

[@LorraineG123]

Loving catching up you too,sorry been missing in action. Enjoying this video so far. Off to watch the rest.Jesus lads,fairplay to ye, those trains are scarey. My tuppence worth, reall!

[@phillyandkeely]

Happy to have you catching up ❤️❤️

[@GoneGrowing]

Real🌕 Oh you guys! Even though I knew it had already happened, watching you guys lose your solar put my heart in my mouth! Not the way you want to start your way into the outback. I hope it’s starting to feel like a crazy story now and not too traumatic ❤️

[@phillyandkeely]

Yeah even though we still haven't replaced them, it's been put in the story to laugh about column haha

[@margaretbutterworth8162]

Huge respect to you two for travelling north in those temperatures. I've just returned from spending New Year at Uluru in Sails of the Desert Resort: we had to stay indoors from 11.00 am till 5.00 pm to remain sane. Looking forward to seeing you in Perth!

[@phillyandkeely]

Did you enjoy uluru though, so special ❤️❤️ yeah it's crazy hot, can imagine staying inside with the Aircon is necessary for sur e

[@alancolley9937]

Note on correlations let some air out of your tyres lower pressure helps heaps but you must put it back up on the bitumen

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks for the tip Alan ❤️

[@OutHereLivin]

crazy stuff guys, minus the roadtrain the outback adventures are looking sick - glad you guys are all good and you have AC!!!

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much guys ❤️❤️ definitely an adventure!

[@andrewgarnham3398]

Well done for going in to the outback plus the road trains are a force to be seen but you're here to tell the tail keep safe 😄

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Andrew ❤️❤️

[@pamelarw58]

Those roads you were travelling on are much better with 4WD 😁 You are so brave as those road trains can cause you to run off road/sway (wind) as they travel FAST keep hands firmly on steering wheel!! Omg your panels blew off! 🥺 I have driven from Melbourne to Perth & we had Gerry Cans of petrol in 80s because there were a lack of petrol stations! Slip Slop Slap SPF 50+ 😵‍💫 The intense heat can take your breath away! Loved the Vlog guys flies & all 💜💙🇦🇺🍻🐨

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Pamela ❤️🙏 really can take your breath away!

[@cherylemaybury9967]

You guys picked the wrong time of year to go through the outback. It is much better to go in winter, the middle of the year. Also, summer is the wet season and can get quite flooded in places. Winter is dry. It always amazes me when non Australians visit the outback and they don’t bring any bug repellent. I prefer tropical strength Rid but Aeroguard works well. If you had some bug repellent the flies would have left you alone. 😊😊 I hope you still enjoyed your trip just the same. Moon landing was real. I watched it live on TV in 1969 when it actually happened.

[@phillyandkeely]

That's so cool that you watched it live ❤️❤️ yeah we had originally planned to go in spring, but time lines took longer than hoped and next thing we knew it was summer, winter would definitely be much more manageable, but so glad we did it and it was special to have the place all to ourselves ❤️❤️

[@twoandaute]

We used to drive 600km to the town we lived in WA and the road trains were always so scary. Most are safe and courteous and others not so much… we hope you guys are having better travels we can’t wait for the rest of this outback series. Happy new year 🎉

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much guys, yeah most were lovely, but there's a few scary ones eh! Happy new year to you too!

[@RaySpillane]

Hi, Guys. Really sucks with the solar panels, hope you've got the bits on board with you to get it sorted. 1/ Moon Landings - real. 2/ Next time you find a store, get yourselves a couple of Aussie Cork Hats, the ones with the pieces of string around the rim with pieces of cork hanging off to keep the flies away from your face. Philly wearing one of those would really make you feel like one of the locals! What makes this annoying is that you guys probably drove near my house here in Kerry at some point & we've got two of those we bought while in Oz & could have given them to you, I don't we're ever gonna find much need for them round here!

[@phillyandkeely]

Haha, that would have been quality if we had brought hats from you in Kerry all the way back to Oz haha. Still not sorted solar panels, but we will when we can

[@christinatimney3979]

Definitely real 🌙

[@phillyandkeely]

[@veronica1952]

[@ianmerrington3211]

I was born in Woomera way back in the 1970s. My dad worked on those rockets. Great to see someone getting excited over them 🎉 As the son of a rocket scientist, moon landings definitely real 😂

[@phillyandkeely]

Love that your dad is a rocket scientist that is epic!

[@motoringmemories6825]

Really. Can you fix the solur panels. Plug your power unit into the cigarette lighter sockets for now. Many thing your both save. Great vlog glen.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Glen, sadly our cigarette lighter doesn't work and panels don't look fixable, but we will just have to pay for campsites every few days in the mean time to keep ourselves charged up until we can get new ones

[@FreeBirdUKVanLife]

When I lived on Cyprus it was 45° constantly for 2 months every year and I didn't have AC, It was brain numbing. Fake moon landing. Hope you got the panels sorted. Stay safe guys ❤x

[@phillyandkeely]

That sounds brutal, hopefully you were able to swim to cool yourself down!

[@vickeybenshoof]

Real. !!! Those flys are nuts

[@phillyandkeely]

Yeah they are gross

[@deborahadamson8066]

Wow. Those flies and road trains are nothing to mess with.

[@phillyandkeely]

Yeah they are nuts!

[@jaynekregting4986]

Hope you guys can get the solar fixed all the best 😊

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Jayne, we will have to buy some new panels when back in civilisation 🥰

[@lillyhoram6508]

I was concerned when you said you wanted to go to the Outback during summer. It's insanely hot and dangerous. Be careful. I am enjoying your videos though. Make sure you have the Blue Mountains on your list. It's divine and much cooler, when we're not on fire.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Lilly ❤️ glad you are enjoying the vids 🙏

[@brettnbeckvalleyvan]

Well all we know is that a camera man beat them all there, best part is the camera man was Welsh his name was Bryn Cartwright 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 safe travels love, peace and good energy ❤️🙏🏻

[@phillyandkeely]

🤣🤣🤣 thanks so much guys

[@dib4152]

Yeah, we're prob all a little bit worried about these two right now. I'm sure it's because they are so light hearted and jokey all the time... but tbh a little mad at them for not believing the warnings. But I tell myself they have good brains in their heads and good feet in their shoes... like Dr. Seuss said.. right? My 'mother' is showing 😅❤

[@phillyandkeely]

We love a challenge, but we are taking all the precautions we can 💪💪 sometimes we have good brains 🤣🤣 but defo would never recommend anyone else come here in summer

[@T.J-and-Soul]

You need to get a solid solar panel, not those flexible ones. It needs to be bolted down to the roof rack. Go to a Bunnings and get a Ryobi rechargeable fan for sleeping. Get some Bushmans natural insect repellent and if you can safely burn a citronella candle, the type that is is in a jar from Woolworths to keep mosquitoes out at night. Keely you need a hat that protects the back of your neck too. You can buy a bag of ice and use your fridge as a cooler until you get the solar fixed.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks for all the excellent advice ❤️ I think you are right about getting rigid one! When we get back to civilization we will get on that 💪

[@T.J-and-Soul]

@ChapterByChapterVlog it's a tough country out there. Maybe look into getting an epirb in case you break down.

Oh wow, waterfalls would be class it's a heatwave for us seeing uluru haha. Always stay curious for sure ❤️

[@user-ov9ce4ev9o]

Hello you awesome travelers. First Philly is mos def handsome and Keely is a joy to behold always. Moon landing absolutely real. And…I live in Phoenix, AZ with the highest number of days over 119 degrees this year…most ever recorded. That’s about 48 degrees Celsius. You learn quickly to not be outside except very early morning. But ugh, flies seem the worst ever. So question: Which are worse; Australian flies or Scottish midges?

[@phillyandkeely]

Excellent question, we debate this haha! I think mosquitos are the worst of all. Midges are probably worse than flies, but they are more limited in location, whereas flies are everywhere! I would say ultimately don't come to Scotland or the outback in summer, both should be done in spring when the critters arent so abundant haha

[@charlenechua6073]

Happy new year from down under on 2024 with new challenges await for you

[@debbieahtong3504]

The reason the corrugated road is bumpier when it looks smooth is because the ruts are full of what's called "bulldust" where they the dust settles and fills them up. Did many trips across the Nullarbor before it was tar sealed.... bone shaking for hrs on end. Road trains passing on that was no joke. Loving your videos 👍

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Debbie ❤️ that's interesting to know about the bulldust!

[@debbieahtong3504]

Forgot to mention... bulldust is an old Aussie expression. Meaning bullshit, "Aaaah that's bulldust" hence why the road looks flat... its bullshit 😂

Fake. Why have they never went back?

[@phillyandkeely]

Thankyou ❤️ the flies are so grim, and the temps only get higher, I think there is wisdom in heading for the coast, but we are gluttons for punishment 🤣

@@taffy7404 During the Apollo 11, Apollo 14 and Apollo 15 lunar missions, astronauts put mirrors on the moon. Why?

Absolutely brilliant video . That heat would be brutal. In Scotland we get 4 seasons in a day ❤ . I absolutely love seeing all of the animals . You both cheer me up every time I watch your video's ❤

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much Hugh! We are so excited to explore Scotland some more after Australia ❤️❤️

[@helenjacob7548]

Oh no! Hope that's as dramatic as it gets. Safe travels.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Helen ❤️

Real - walking on the moon is way too cool to be fake. Wow, what a start. Stunning drone footage and those kangaroos are gorgeous. It’s good to know you survived the outback unless a moon walking space age kangaroo is uploading your videos - which is totally possible when it comes to your travels. Great video as always and looking forward to seeing what else happens.

[@phillyandkeely]

🤣🤣🤣 we have indeed survived without moon walking kangaroo's haha

[@happynscrappy5209]

Oh no what a shame! Sorry about your solar panels, hope you cope n stay cool without them. You're doing well in that sizzling heat and the flies😜

[@phillyandkeely]

Honestly the flies are sooooo annoying 🤣🤣

[@kevsamo7252]

Frickin hell guys! This is what I’m talking about! I thought the outback would throw up a few dramas but seriously that was eventful. Glad you’re both ok after the land train struck. Such a great episode with rolling emotions. Fair play it looks mega warm there. I did laugh about the Mary Poppins comment. Now…….Did the hats survive!? 🤣

[@phillyandkeely]

The hats have survived 🤣 Philly's dad wants him to bring it home for him lmao, noone wants mine, I wonder why 🤔🤣🤣

[@Eqwipman]

It was real as far as i know.

[@phillyandkeely]

❤️

[@willowandkevin3068]

Fake The flies were bad enough when we were there. Those road trains are crazy. Blimey guys you are really going through it. I hope you enjoy the rest of the outback trip. As you know we decided not to do it after watching you guys i think we did the right thing.

[@phillyandkeely]

I think you did the right thing too 🤣🤣

[@barrywatler7482]

Hi ya Philly and Keely. I personally love the desert country you never get the red dust out, definitely 💯 hillbilly.🥰Always wear sunscreen, the Kangaroos 🦘 are just “Roos” ,the road trains 🚂 would be different, I used drive a truck and trailer all over Australia well mostly, it’s iconic the landscape. I think the moon landing was real .Get used to the flies. Take care and stay safe. 🪰🎉🚐❤

[@phillyandkeely]

The net I put up around myself this week while editting makes the flies much more endurable haha, Philly has like twenty on him on the van and I'm in my own wee cocoon

[@ianbasson8367]

Glad to have back guys. Your hats are very sensible in that heat. Thank goodness you have functioning aircon. Hope you can get the solar panels fixed asap to keep things charged. I believed the Moon landings were real.

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks Ian ❤️ still not got new panels sorted, but we will soon 🤞

[@debrandw246]

Philly looks very handsome. Well done Plilly. So glad you are ok. That was very scary.

[@phillyandkeely]

Hes a handsome guy 🥰

[@skh2263]

Am not envious of you trip right now… the heat would be too much… the adventure though is something you will never forget…. Looking forward to the next instalment ⭐️

[@phillyandkeely]

Thanks so much ❤️❤️ yeah noone should be envious, it's grim ahaha
