Amazing adventure , the challenge of travelling alone is something , but its who you meet along the way both locals and other travellers that makes it rememberable , you will probably go your own ways but will be friends for life

[@gdayjambo]

Absolutely agree!

[@jackmeyers40]

KZbin recommended your channel and i'm glad they did. You 2 are very ,very good at vlogging and I am enjoying all of your adventures.

[@gdayjambo]

That is so kind of you to say :) we are working hard to learn quickly and start telling good stories. We appreciate your support!

[@amigo_overland]

Yes you are right AMIGO. I like Thais channel too

[@gdayjambo]

Welcome!!

[@MuhammadIlyas-i8w]

Before I was watching Kinetic Kennons, Itchy Boots, Grizzly N Bear, Eva Zu Beck, Timmy Carter and lots of more, but the last 1 month I saw you guys with NextMeridian, but last night I saw your own program and I liked it very much, and I am determined to watch your programs regularly !!!! Any way thank you very much for to taking us in the different parts of this beautiful world !

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks for watching! We're honored to be mentioned alongside so many amazing creators :)

Good film. You made a great advert for the Baja - and for classic 4x4s.

[@gdayjambo]

That’s very kind of you to say :) the classic 4x4 aspect is huge for us and we want to share that passion with other people. We are working hard to build our storytelling skills to get the message out there!

[@seanbowie7966]

Is that an Australian Red Heeler? Go Land Cruisers!

[@JimDundee]

Fun in the sun👍. Great collaboration 🥰

This channel has to just explode very soon. Such great high quality footage, excellent editing and natural voice overs. Great job!

[@gdayjambo]

You are too kind :) we are looking forward to sharing more of our stories. Thank you so, so much for the support!!

[@gaoxiaen1]

This reminds me of backpacking in Asia in the 1990s. Best vacation in my life! Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Thailand (a few times), Burma/Myanmar, Laos, and Hong Kong and Taiwan again.

[@ianmatlock1]

Another great video . Lovely to see the same trip from different perspectives

[@gdayjambo]

It’s been fun to see the stories that each of us tell. No one experiences the same events in quite the same ways

[@stuartrollings602]

Hey guys! Been following Eva for awhile and meet y’all on her channel…look forward to seeing y’all get to the bottom of our continent! Thanks for all you are showing us! Live from Texas!

[@gdayjambo]

Hey Stuart! Thanks for subscribing, we are happy to take you on the journey with us :)

[@JorgeMorales-tw5ox]

Love your VLOGs!!!! Will be watching at the way to south America!!!

[@cynan1019]

Just subscribed. I didn't know you guys had a channel too until now. So now I can see things from 3 perspectives (Eva & Next Meridian).

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks for subbing! we appreciate the support :)

[@DefenderCanada]

Great video! We met Nick and Mathilde back in Canada as they crossed Quebec. We had a great camping night with them and totally feel the vibe you must have in Baja.

[@gdayjambo]

That’s so awesome, those two are great! Hopefully we cross paths with them again :)

[@ameliavan11]

So amazing!!!!

[@hassanalbalushi5373]

Loved watching this 😍

[@carverolson8782]

Good video, thanks for sharing the off road and beach experience.

[@gdayjambo]

We’ve got plenty more of it coming!

[@stevestott1514]

What a great video again you two . Had to laugh about the troopy rescuing the landy . I have Owened both . loved them both to , but still is fun to tease the other rig . Both are so awesome to over land in . But I liked my landy best 😁 . Really enjoyed your beautiful video . And what a great group of over landers . Fun video .Cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A. :):).🐕:) 🌎🍻👍🏼

[@gdayjambo]

Hey Steve! It was such a good time driving in this convoy, each vehicle is sooo good to drive.

[@sabrinaog]

Awesome video! Can't wait for what's coming up soon.

[@gdayjambo]

We’ve got some good videos coming up!!

[@Americanmapping44]

Was nice watching this side of the trip after watching Eva's and Nick & Mathilde's you guys had great footage

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks so much ❤❤

[@johndiaz7240]

Excellent video, very impressed with upgrades on the Troopy.

[@gdayjambo]

It feels good to be driving the Troopy and not just working on it haha

[@deriusnorris4463]

What an awesome track. Kudos to you guys doing it. And Kudos to Eva trying it out and making the decision to step out. That troopy is awesome and was in its natural habitat. Thanks for the video.

[@gdayjambo]

This track is what we dream of haha it was an absolute blast. Over the years there have been so many trails we have turned around on. We learned very quickly in the Troopy that there was no trail worth destroying our home on wheels.

[@deriusnorris4463]

@@gdayjambo agree. We also just turn around and leave the ego at home.

[@troopyinafrica]

Brilliant video today guys😅! Can’t want for the others.

[@gdayjambo]

Cheers! We are so stoked to release the next videos :)

[@rainmakerguy]

Great channel guys.Keep the videos coming.

[@vanlifewithGinaPayne]

Great video guys💛🚐😎🐈

[@خيرالْدِّين-ج4م]

nice....good video....👍👍👍

[@gdayjambo]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@MichaelTildahl]

Found your vlog from Eva. Really impressed with your editing and production quality! I'd have thought you'd been doing this a long time. Subscribed and looking forward to more of your trip

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks so much!! We are working hard to learn as quick as possible ☺️

[@vananahammock]

Great Video!

[@paulbrach5778]

Nice job navigating the rough stuff!

[@gdayjambo]

The Troopy will churn through anything as long as I don’t loose my nerve 😂

[@christip20]

This was just great , it felt like this is what it’s all about. I didn’t realize there was this much open land still out there. By the way Politicians talk you would think there’s nowhere to see nature any longer, why do we even listen to these people who are uncomfortable outside of hotels without people to address their every whim…..? 😂 I followed Eva Su Beck to your channel and decided to stay!

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks for the support!! There is plenty of open space still out there to see :)

[@myronhensel]

Wonderful episode! Love the troopy. How ma y miles do you have on it and what did you pay for it if you don’t mine me asking? I want to sell my 2015 Tacoma for one. It’s my dream rig what you have!!

[@colleen4062]

Hello i just found you have been folliwing Eva. I hace enjoyed this stream Subscribed and 👍 Thank you new fan i am hooked. 🙏💙

[@gdayjambo]

Welcome aboard!

[@russmartin4189]

Get your entire steering system, ball joints, tie rod ends, stabilizer bar, steering column, and gears, checked. Nick said it had play in it. It shouldn't have any. At one time or another, I have had them all break, not wear out, BREAK. You do not want that to happen in a remote location.

[@JorgeMorales-tw5ox]

Eamon and Beck are also in Baja Right now. You should do a VLOG with them!!!!

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks for the support! We actually spent a little time with Eamon last week on the beach. Roan and Oso got to play a bit :)

[@hobosapienskimohman]

Nice to meet you and greetings from Finland

[@hmcpimpslap480]

Very enjoyable!🇺🇸

[@martinorlik]

Baja looks amazing!

[@gdayjambo]

It’s been a wild experience 😊

[@martinorlik]

@@gdayjambo Keep up the good work!

[@paulbartsch1223]

That shelf above the driver’s head looks like it will take the top off the driver’s head in an accident. Stay safe.

[@GenXGamer]

Great video, really enjoyed the editing and music choices. Congrats on breaking 1k subscribers. Also when y'all were going through the panhandle of Florida (a few videos ago) you came right through where I live. 😀 Looking forward to following the adventure.

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks!! We appreciate you being here and all the positive feedback. Bummer we missed you in Florida!

[@steveburns6503]

Scariest part of the whole video besides leaving a solo to drive through baja - I’ve been driving down for 30 years was passing the truck … I absolutely hate that on those roads - Especially since the road was more narrow and there was no shoulder or forgiveness! Be Safe

[@tytycascadia]

What kind of radios were you all using to communicate between vehicles, and what radio model do you have in the cab? GMRS? CB?

[@gdayjambo]

Hey Tyler. We have a Midland MXT400 GMRS radio in Jambo. Not too sure what model the handhelds were.

[@tytycascadia]

@@gdayjambo thanks! Have you found the GMRS useful in other situations?

[@gdayjambo]

@@tytycascadia honestly, no. It’s rare for us to use it even when in a group. Most people either don’t have a radio at all or don’t have GMRS. That being said, I still wouldn’t switch to another type of radio.

[@lumberjack2744]

Hello, I'm new to this channel. Loved your video. I'm interested which camera gear you use? Did you already share?

[@gdayjambo]

Thank you sooo much 🥹 we film with a Sony A7IV & 16-35mm, 35mm, 55mm Sony/Zeiss lenses along with a Sony 100-400 G Master telephoto

[@joshhallam2253]

Great video. When I was living in Tijuana I really wanted to drive the whole Baja Peninsula and take the ferry in La Paz (I think?) which sounds like it's just what you are doing, but then circle back up. My 1st summer there I got married and we went off to Belize and Guatemala for our honeymoon. The next summer my wife was pregnant. The next summer my parents watched our son and we went...... Until San Quintin. We stopped there for the night and my wife missed our son too much so we went back. I had just graduated college that spring and started working the fall when we got back so I lost my chance. I always used vacation to visit my family and now that we are in the US we visit her family. Ever since I learned about the Pan American Highway from my Spanish text book, I've been wanting to drive it. I guess I'll be living vicariously through you guys.

[@rebeccaperson8581]

So far you aren’t missing much but if I was doing it I’d be happy to do it with these guys..

[@gdayjambo]

Its never too late for a little adventure, even if it isn't quite what you had always imagined

[@trippingtheroad_liaandkevin]

Love the quality of the shots! It's looking GREAT! Can we ask, with wath you filmed this vlog? 🤩

[@gdayjambo]

Thanks! We film with a Sony a7iv, mostly on 35 and 55mm prime lenses, but also 16-35 and 100-400 zoom lenses :)

[@nature_venture]

What a gorgeous video - so cohesive. Are you open to sharing what camera you're using? Both the vlogs & shots of life look lovely! Came across you via Eva & definitely staying for the adventure :) all the best

[@gdayjambo]

Awe thank you so much!! We film with a Sony a7iv and use mostly prime lenses rather than zoom. Thanks for the support, we appreciate you :)

[@harshagarwal8170]

great video 🤩🤩

[@masonsmith858]

How come you have 'G'day' in the channel name? Nice work🙏🏻

[@gdayjambo]

G'Day is a reference to our vehicle being from Australia

[@stevenmitchell5435]

That mine site looked super sketchy. I imagine it was a surprise when you found it. How long do you think it will take to do the whole drive? I think Cody needs to upgrade his lights to LED's, so the Troopy fits in better 😄😄

[@gdayjambo]

We were definitely sketched out when we rolled up on it haha. We are planning two years to make it all the way to the bottom of South America and back to Oregon. So far, we are about six months into the trip.

[@amigo_overland]

NEW SUB here Amigo..!!! I really want to overland in Mexico , I’m from Chihuahua I know I can find great places there for off-roading. I just need other overlanders to join me 🤓

[@gdayjambo]

We know the feeling! Back home we nearly always traveled by ourselves because it was difficult to find people. If you go to the Expedition Portal website and search "Overland Mexico" the first article that pops up might be able to help you find some other Toyota's to drive with :)

[@sj143]

How’s it been for servicing the diesel LC in Mexico 😊

[@gdayjambo]

We haven’t had to do much to it in Mexico yet, but when the time comes we will just rent space from a local shop and do the work ourselves

[@natemalnaa1]

14:32 I wonder if anyone ever told Eva the background on that Mr Bill toy lol

[@rebeccaperson8581]

How do you manage to drive exactly the same distance apart from each other?

[@gdayjambo]

Just a lucky shot haha

[@markhunter1140]

Hi, Great video well done. I love that song starting at 3:35 Do you know the name of it? Just subscribed!

[@gdayjambo]

Hi, thank you! We use Epidemic Sound for our music so I'm pretty sure you can use Shazam to get the title and artist. The song you asked about is Violet Sky (Instrumental) by Phello.

[@markhunter1140]

@@gdayjambo Thank you so much. That's it. I have been trying to find the name and artist for many months. I will be watching your videos.

[@jamesmazurstudios]

Hi. New Sub here :). A quick note....RHD vehicles are notoriously turned away at the Nic border. Costa Rica also is a grey area.

[@gdayjambo]

Hi! Thanks for subscribing. We really appreciate you following along. Costa Rica and Nicaragua are definite no's for RHD vehicles. We unfortunately are going to have to ship around most of central America.

Call it whacky but our Mahindra Pikup double cab 4x4 wouldn't be amiss here.
