Having a backyard adventure while signing my first book, the Backyard adventurer

[@BeauMiles]

G'day folks, 'The Backyard Adventurer' is now available internationally and as an audio book. Thanks to everyone who's patiently waited. Goodonyas.

[@vikachan19]

Did you narrate the book? If so, awesome - we'd love to hear your thoughts on that process too ^_^

[@import67]

Just got the audio book cant wait to listen.

[@jacobortega2786]

@@import67 tell us if it's him narrating

[@ericrolfson573]

@@jacobortega2786 He does narrate it himself.

[@raine1570]

Where can I get it in the US?

[@brynjarsteel8134]

I own that "ran out of ink" :D Great read, thanks Beau.

[@Allison-rz9pi]

I came to the comments looking to see if the owner of that book spoke up! Happy Holidays!!

[@wobblysauce]

I saw the Tea copy

[@jonathansylvester2662]

The fact the lines of text are missing is AMAZING. Now, as everyone completes the book with their own hands, everyone will have a unique copy. Couldn’t have planned it better.

[@ineedabetterusername7424]

Goodonya for that inspirational observation...

[@zhuliut9819]

I checked my book immediately, but the lines were already there (on the previous page). A little bit sad 'cause i kinda looked forward to reading these handwritten lines. haha. EDIT: I wrote them in a second time, because why the **** not.

[@farenough5878]

this comment is the reason why i like not only Beau himself but his auditory as well XD

[@tarpnarp]

Don't be sad it's only 10 minutes. Be happy you can rewatch it 6 times in an hour

[@xavierpaquin]

Thanks for the inspiring words, _SwampNuts_

[@Jacobtheunwise]

I feel like the fake verified tick actually worked lol

[@Stellar-Cowboy]

This is the kind of energy the world needs

[@Bettys_Eldest]

a bit of Beau was just what I needed on a crappy day, might not watch it for the full hour, but will definitely have a second viewing.

[@chemclimber]

New challenge, run a mile everytime you finish it for 24h 😆

[@bmudri]

A Beau notification is like no other, rarely are we graced with such presence

[@paddydunne774]

Spot on 🤘

[@xxxenricop]

As good as one from Ed March

[@Kingofdafarm21]

Beau opening a parcel with an axe is the most Beau-ish thing I've ever seen

[@Loivado]

9:33 the missing lines 10:03 That part by the way gave me the biggest smile and I think it's really good that the missing lines get told here in the video instead of the book and that they have to be written by the reader. It's somewhat a full circle including the viewer into the journey.

[@AllThingsOutdoors]

I've lived in north east Victoria for most of my life and been all over the world and hardly seen what my area has to offer. In the last 5 years though I have done so many backyard adventures like kayaking an entire river and seeing things for the first time that are 5 minutes from where I live and I love it! Thanks the the inspiration Beau.

[@eXtremeLink859]

As one of the lucky 1812 who received a signed book, judging by the signature I'd got I think it was somewhere in the first few hours mark of your signing session. Blue pen, a simple "Thanks! Beau Miles" without any drawings created out of the boredom that can come from repetition. I love to think about the autonomous movement of the hands and mind as you wrote out the simple messages, one after another- after another. Love it. Thanks Beau!

[@DaySamuel]

Me too!

[@SeanHodgins]

Picked up a copy, but I will probably end up listening to the audiobook anyway just to get your narration!

[@simoneparvizi775]

Is there an audiobook?

[@AGuyNamedRicky]

I don’t think any one person has inspired me be more bold and adventurous than Beau has.

[@corneliuskennedy4845]

Just wanted to say that I just finished the audiobook. Even though I've seen all of your films, listening to your book during my morning walks in solitude was a fantastic experience. The storytelling is out of this world. Lost my passion for filmmaking and writing but because of your amazing storytelling I picked up my pen and notebook again today. Thanks Beau, all the best to you and your family.

[@joma4452]

acknowledging an error your own book then reversing the sentiment and creating an activity that brings you closer to your audience is fantastic and much appreciated!

[@HudSzu]

10:17 “It’s probably the best line I’ve ever written and it was left out of the book.” …That’s rough buddy.

[@s10m0t10n]

If there's one man who can turn random imperfections into interest and entertainment, it's this red-headed Aussie. Thanks, Beau. The day is just that bit better for this video.

[@samhall6554]

Flipping “straying too far from the highway” to “straying too close to the highway” is a beautiful window into the weirdness Beauman. Good stuff 🚗

[@danhabberley]

Grabbed my copy, to write in the missing lines, to be a part of a collective, at this specific point in time... turned to page 97, and found the words I was supposed to ink back into the book, looking straight back at me. I've never felt so robbed, to have something that wasn't defective... 😂😂

[@davidanalyst671]

my family is defective

[@Tierall]

Congrats on the book Beau! Probably all of the people that bought these books you signed you know via youtube, I find it the epiphany of "you", that you use this platform to correct the mistake. Not only that, it gives it an extra dimension to have people add the lines (in their own handwriting) to complete the book! I applaud you for what you do!

[@hardeepsingh2505]

finishing off wine at 7am in a ditch....one of life's underrated pleasures!

[@Snowddova]

Just added my extra lines in! I think it’s pretty cool to have a book that you can add a piece of the story into

[@louiscookson7811]

"it's just a bloody good idea Beau, get on with it" love it, classic Beau.

[@bikalimark]

I couldn't find a good way of putting into words how much i appreciate Beau existing and sharing his beautiful mind with all of us, so i just wrote this. Thanks Beau!

[@darcymurphy3256]

"Do Something intense enough to stop thinking about anything other than what you're doing" is some serious wisdom Beauy, keep on keeping on! Loving it

[@lovethemack]

yes yes, so true

[@brendonmunge642]

Mate - you continually shine light onto the joy we need to see and embrace in life. Thanks and best wishes to you

[@izziepope]

Ahhh, it's a fine morning for some coffee and a Beau video. Today will be a good day 😊

[@isolamar]

Impressive as usual. What is admirable here is that Beau is all packed with his own food, coffee/tea cups and utensils etc even when those are available around.

[@nevertoosmall]

Congratulations on the book Beau! Feel you on the proof reading. We had a similar experience recently.

[@ACoupleOfKiwis]

If anything Beau, the missed section of the book has made us more connected to the story, and to your message. In a way, we have all written a part of your book!

[@evigvandrare]

Bloody love being 1 of the 1812 who got their books signed after you slept in a ditch. I'm listening to the audiobook at the moment, and it's fantastic. Congratulations on a ripper book, mate.

[@HHCforlife]

Beau Frickin' Miles - absolute legend.

[@alroy7335]

Consider these comments our signatures to you Beau. Your authentic and positive outlook on life is quite inspiring. 😀🛶🍃

[@kevindesilva4588]

Bloody good read thanks Beau gave me lots to think about

[@KPino-ec8fk]

Right On Dude!! Your living life Freely! I Love your channel.

[@MeshachMalley]

Beau, you are such an inspiration! Every time you post a video I think about how many options and choices I have about the way to live my life. Thank you!

[@milenfilev]

Mr. Miles, you are an inspiration - what a spirit, full respect Sir.

[@paddydunne774]

Just bought the audio book And put in an order for the paperback as well. Wish we’d had teachers like Beau when we were young ‘uns. But I’ve recalibrated how I go ultra riding with the bike since coming across Beau. And fir that I’m eternally grateful. Never to old to learn 🚜🚴🏼🤘🍀

[@philliplaughton2433]

Oh my gosh, this man is incredible. The way he story tells is perfect. The ending is priceless

[@PancakePirate101]

Beau Miles to me is hands down the best youtuber on this platform and a big inspiration. The only youtuber I have bell notifications for!

[@owencavok1912]

THOSE MISSING LINES!!!!!!!! Made my day hearing what they were. Been thinking about them ever since reading the book.

[@jakesr98]

I absolutely love the fact that those lines were missing! Put a huge smile on my face, don't know why. It just screams 'Beau' in a really good fascinating way. Adding an extra quirk where we add our own lines really gives you a sense of attachment.

[@pixelhombrecreations]

What's better than reading Beau Miles' book in his voice? Listening to Beau Miles reading his book! Thanks for the audio book option. Can't wait to have a listen.

[@markissboi3583]

best line i ever written & it was left out the book There the life rules beau - we want you back

[@CraigJOutdoors]

Nothing brightens my day like a bit of Beau. Got the book on Google Play Books since I can't seem to get it physically here in Canada yet. Loving it so far. Cheers.

[@peterspence839]

I think it's perfect that the lines are missing. When we write them in, they'll forever be remembered. Loving it so far! Cheers.

[@stefanjaro7213]

Just finished reading your book Beau! I loved it! Made me laugh, made me smile, made me think. It's one part adventure book and another part how-to-adventure book generously sprinkled with your philosophies. You've inspired me to get stranded by the side of the road in the middle of the night and sleep in a nook somewhere. :)

[@Aplusinskal]

Helen is pure gold

[@chrismytton]

Only Beau could make drinking coffee in a ditch look so tempting.

[@OGMikeGyver]

By far my favorite KZbin channel. Thanks Beau

[@kasperdeclercq5562]

Beau, you are a true inspiration in the ways in which I intend to live my life by the time I'm thirty (or something in between). I'm a young guy traveling the world that has yet to fully understand the repercussions of what it is to combine that everyday living with a well-saturated understanding of the big wide world around me. At age 22, you inspire me to go out on the craziest adventures I can possibly think of, while still having some overview of what is to come next. I am enjoying your videos because you feel like you are a guy that was able to break through the mundane, while still dealing with it on a daily basis in a child-like sense of exploration. Against all the turmoil being thrown at me from all the people that have a certain saying in my life, I still choose to go out to Sri Lanka by the end of the year, after a long time of full-time employment at an exciting, yet mundane job. You are the reason I have to keep going, keep making videos man, because they certainly do have an impact, at least on me. Cheers, A simple enjoyed of your content

[@thebrzola]

I watch you. Not at the same day ,or week. But when is possible . Somehow i need the stories from down under. The positive, the simple. That is reason i order your book. Thank's. I love it. I Know!!!

[@justg1226]

Just bought the kindle edition. I also appreciate hands the most. They are absurdly beautiful and useful. I also strongly agree that adventure in your homeland could be the best adventure. I live in Canada and the same adventure can be done 4 times a year with wildly different results just by using the seasons for difference. You are an inspiration for travel outside your door. I am not an educated person like yourself but I love to rob your ideas to make my life a more exciting event than it was.

[@trailmagnus]

A Beau film makes me love the world more!

[@yan.broccoli]

My dude.......you are amazing. Thank you for being you and supplying me with life changing content. Please don't stop......no seriously....don't.

Thanks Beau. Just brought ya book. You have inspired this kiwi to get out for some backyard adventures. You're a gem of a human.

[@louloug2008]

You can't help but like this fella congratulations on the book

[@jpmk653]

This is the best youtube series i’m subscribing to, by far. I always get excited when i see that you upload. Why? I love the way you are balancing want with need. Creating opportunities from nothing and anything. This episode got me thinking, it would be amazing to have the book as audio with your voice. With that concept it would be amazing with a podcast. Talking about next adventures, include in planning, whatever if it’s a failure or success with the adventure. Thanks and good luck with sales!

[@_JS96]

Love you, Beau. Everything you post puts a smile on my face, and lines up with my strange "but why" wanderlust, and humour. Never stop!

[@brianbrock6774]

Beau, You amaze me, inspire me and amuse me on so many levels! Cheers to you being nothing but you!

[@regularaussiemedia1426]

I’ve been watching your videos for a long time, but I just recently showed my wife and we’ve been binge watching all your videos ever since. We just ordered your book too! You’re our kind of person and offer a fresh perspective on things (even the common ones!). We are also very local and live on 5 acres in Trafalgar! We love your resourcefulness and your humour. Maybe we will run into you on day! Cheers! 🍻

[@TheFabled1]

I am at home with covid and grateful for this video....wishing you would upload several hours of more content!

[@robsonbobson7839]

Very happy to have contributed to the number in the title. love your work Beau, and loved the book - here's to many more backyard adventures

[@fleebwoodmac]

only Beau could say 'we left you a spot to write it in' in such a casual manner that actually makes you want to write in a brand new book.

[@connorbridwell3777]

I’m crying I’m so happy it’s always a good day when he posts

[@HBRDynamics]

It's a good week when Beau Miles and Ed Pratt post videos

[@TheLuke1234]

Pencilled it in - it's complete now. Thanks Beau!

[@NeilRoy]

Wow, you have a lovely wife and child, you're truly blessed.

[@paddlefaster]

It's great to see this channel taking off. I remember when it had one video and fewer than 12,000 followers. Beau is definitely one-of-a-kind.

Congratulations Beau, Wishing you good luck with future endeavours

[@lennsoderlund4476]

Here's the missed verbiage: "Thanks ladies" I say, "I hope the next bloke who walks through the door has better blood." I smile as I walk into the dim light of day. Knowing that my life-affirming activity has only made me less than human for a day or so, and I'm fine with that!"

[@jordanorourke8388]

Its a good day when this gent uploads a new video!

[@scottlawrence2258]

Beau reminds me of the book The lost thing by Shaun Tan, in the book everyone is in a cookie cutter society and only one person is noticing all the weird and wonderful things around them, that person is Beau, he is such a down to earth person!
