The Reality of Life On The Road

[@wingitmissionfishingoutdoo6647]

Hard to describe what gives a channel that "raw" effect but with you guys its more about sincere and honest reactions you give to day to day occurrences, good and bad. It sets you apart from other travel vlogs in a big way. Really enjoy your vids, keep up the good work.

[@Matt-wv7sw]

100% agree!!! Continue to keep it real - best way the viewers can relate. This is what what keeps us coming back :)

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks for the comment mate! So nice to hear this 😊 we really enjoyed filming the episode the way we did! Thanks so much for watching. 😊😊

[@DanG90]

100% agreed

[@mandymorgan8103]

🌺 Excellent, thank you for sharing your experience, just gets better and better, such a happy, lucky couple 🌺

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much Mandy! 😊

[@CheekyKoala]

One of the truly brilliant things about your channel: being Australian, you’re not afraid of animals when they come to say hello! I’ve noticed that with other travel vlogs from non-Australian creators, that they seem to be only used to interacting with dogs & cats! I loved watching you with that little goat - so adorable!

[@jimmyp164]

that farm was great having all different animals around with the birds chirping over head loved it

[@fatmanoverlanding]

Fun episode. Love the narrative, and well done on another excellent editing. It's fun watching you both. Any more challenges your subscribers recommended that you'll do soon? 😁

[@thisneurodiverselife]

Absolutely loved this style of video. It showed us all what life on the road is really like. That farm stay was crazy, so much going on. One Life, One Search, Shane

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks for watching mate!!

[@chrisg9214]

Loved the episode. Left us feeling happy and wanting to hook up the camper and hit the road. Em and I look forward to the next one. Certainly our favourite channel. Cheers.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks Chris! Get that camper hooked up 😉😉

[@HammerRocks]

Enjoyable episode. Great editing and use of music to capture the mood. Looking forward to the next one. 👍

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks Hammer!! Did take a while to edit this one so happy with it!! Definitely one of our favourites. 😬

[@wayne1959]

a great episode guys well done. That region is filled with tales of hardship and fortune fortune. I saw Mary Kathleen as a productive uranium mine in the 70s and again when the decommissioning sale was held and in that water i believe there is still machinery used in mining the actual yellow cake as it was just best to leave it in there..one little chuckle i got was that the turkeys you mentioned a couple of times Jack were actually Guinea Fowl but who cares, it was great to see and hear you guys excitement. Travel Safe guys.

[@ryanphotostudio]

Loved this episode guys, I felt like I was there with you… you could really feel your happiness and joy at what you were experiencing! How good was the little goat, that farm stay rocks! Great editing and music choice as well… as they say - nailed it!

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks Justin 😊 that little farm stay was a place we will never forget!

[@frontseatadventures]

Loved seeing a bit more of the reality behind you travels 😍 Welcome back to Queensland 🙌🏼

[@deirdrefisher2773]

Your sincerity and enthusiasm makes me what to pack the van and get out again. Thanks again for sharing you travels/life with us. How good it would be to be young again 🤔

[@bravocharlie777]

Love it guys. You are both really comfortable in front of the camera now it’s so great to see. Thank you for the awesome entertainment

[@johnphillips5301]

Love the way you guys present. It seems so natural and unscripted. Thank you for letting us share a little bit of your life on the road.

[@terrysmith1307]

Loved it we were at Mary Kath for earlier this week was good for a rest and recoup

[@tobyhartley2829]

Loved the change of plans - we did that last year too! If you are heading to the Atherton Tablelands make sure you drop into Innot hot springs. There is a sandy river bed that you can lie in the hot water from the springs. Great to be first there with a cup of coffee in the morning! Free camp just off the road a few km away with markets at the campsite every couple of week-ends (don't get stuck as the stall will set up around you!) Thanks for the video and the great reminders of our trip :-)

[@bikestobeaches5423]

Nice one guys. The hug in while you were standing in the water is why you go to places like that. No one else there and able to just enjoy the location.

[@greggenge481]

A really good vid guys. So enjoyable. Keep up the amazing vision of your journeys.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much Greg! 😊😊

[@chaslie]

Megan you are a 'brilliant' editor. No doubt about it, you have arrived!

[@shaunmoller2997]

Jack and Megan you just show real live in a van can be fun but also challenge a episode full of fun and laughter

[@badenshepherd9124]

Love the raw video. Keep it up getting better every episode.

[@robmay4525]

Good job Team. You 2 always look so relaxed reguardless of what happens. Cheers

[@andrewfarlie]

Nice one guys 🙌 Looking forward to warmer weather ourselves 😎

[@delrynesharrett2435]

Thanks for your wonderful videos Megan and Jack. My husband and I love your videos and have followed you since the early days - you are both so natural and genuine and have a real joy for the simple things in life. We did a trip in a ute and rooftop tent in 2016 from Perth to Victoria, a month in Tasmania, then up to Townsville - took 3 months but we just loved it all. Keep traveling your own path! Look forward to next week's episode.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much for the kind words guys! 🙏😊

[@mattmartin176]

Well done on that sunrise Timelapse amazing 🤩 another great episode

[@gillianfahey6464]

Thanks again for another great episode 😄Just spent 6 weeks (May/June) travelling across to Perth (AND back). I had lists of all these Free Camps but we ended up searching most nights when possible for electricity to power our heating otherwise it was off to bed with thermals. We went via South Australia’s Eyre & York Peninsula and then the Margaret River …stunning scenery and met some great people but I didnt thaw out until we reached Moree NSW on our way home to Brisbane and warmth!🥰so I can understand you wanting to find the way out of the cold

[@johnhills8593]

We’ve watched all your vids and I think this is one of my favourites. You both seemed to be even happier than normal. Was a great watch. Keep up the good times and good vids.

[@itsJackandMegan]

We loved this one as well!! We are finally settled into living full time on the road again and very happy with how it’s all going. Thanks for watching 😊

[@barbarapadgett5538]

Love the raw style! That was my childhood all over again! Thanks!

[@itsJackandMegan]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JustcruznRob-AlanaBuick]

U guys have nailed it again with this Ep & u look & sound so happppy , keep it up 👍. Luv’d the goat and animals 🤣. Thnx for sharing, raw was good, keep doing it, cheers 🍻

[@truthspeakerinoz]

You guys are great! I like how you did the sunrise video. You're both funny, loving and genuine and that's what makes your videos awesome!

[@raybulmer5707]

Video was great. Nothing serious, relaxed, enjoying travelling.

[@the_endless_detour]

We liked this style of video too! We think its great to show a bit of the behind the scenes and some of the reality, because it isn’t always sunshine and lollipops - from one travelling couple to another, haha! We love how real you are, how you interact with each other and your personalities are gold. Maybe we’ll see you on the track.

[@alisadventures9234]

We really love watching you guys. We are from Perth but now have lived in Melbourne for 11yrs. We have just bought a van and a cruiser and going to start living full-time and travel from Melbourne to Perth as our elders daughter move back to Perth and the youngest is here in Melbourne.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Sounds great guys enjoy your travels! Good choice with the cruiser purchase 😉

[@scottrea3024]

Thanks guys awesome video again good to see the good and bad keep up the great content

[@kevanharding9716]

How could you ever expect an experience like that ,you travel all over Australia and something so simple is a hi lite of your trip. Love your videos as always great mix of content.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Yep we will never forget that little farm stay!!

[@jacquibowen7084]

Good video you have done a great job again loved it.

[@PenelopeA57]

For a minute there I thought you wouldn’t get the gate opened, and the next few videos would be driving around looking for a hole in the fence, and then a video of Megan eating eggs cooked on Jack in the frypan…. So I’m relieved you made it out of there! Loved the next part too, that goat, the kangaroo….priceless! Absolutely loved the video…solid gold!

[@itsJackandMegan]

Hahah we were thinking the same thing for a minute! The farm stay was amazing, we were expecting to see maybe a few birds, a dog and a cow so it blew us away with all those animals 😂 So happy to hear you enjoyed this one 😁😁

[@bensparks9467]

I am really enjoying your videos. I’m slowly setting up my 105 landcruiser to do some trips with my kids after I finish uni.

[@itsJackandMegan]

105 series are one of the most capable and reliable car out good car to setup!! Thanks for watching 😊😊

[@leannaf6831]

By far my favorite episode yet 😂 that farm stay looks both hilarious and amazing! Keep up the awesome content guys 👍

[@JohnYoung-m4j]

Great video. Enjoyed the stay with the animals and get that lovely goat. It was certainly different but very enjoyable. The young lady in the bath made it well worth watching on its own. Good job keep it up John😂😂

[@kaylaturnbull4795]

I love this style of vlog!! U guys are honestly so cool, I feel like I’m just hanging out with yous when I watch ur vids!

[@itsJackandMegan]

Aww love to hear that Kayla thank you! That is honestly our main goal with our videos 🥰 Thanks so much for hanging out with us!

[@kayleighrowley9074]

This has definitely been my favourite video you’ve done love to see a bit more of what you do even the things that are normal like cleaning ect and even if we were to see how you get your food do your grocery shops just very normal things but what it’s like to do those things in a small space and being on the road xx

[@stevep1530]

Great love the raw feel, other channels have lost their way. You guys have a good mix of the places and your selves. 👍

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much for the feedback Steve! We really appreciate it, thanks for watching 😊

[@bailey2bailey]

What a great episode!!! So much fun and laughter!!!!

[@bedmaker]

We enjoyed this video guys, it's a little different to other KZbinrs which makes you guys unique. Well done!

[@bevoeags7556]

Loved it thanks guys. We are off traveling in October might see you out there!

[@rodwood8561]

Well done 👍 👍 I saw you shopping in town , but was to shy to stop and say hello, so I just tooted the car horn and waved , looking forward to your next one . Thank you .

[@itsJackandMegan]

Ohhh sorry we didn’t get a chance to say hello Rod! If you spot us again we’d love to meet you 😊

[@paulhills8143]

Great video guys thoroughly enjoyed it 👍

[@markandmandyoutandabout]

Love your work guys - we are fledglings and are learning lots by watching experts like you guys :) Mark n Mandy

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much for watching guys!

[@ronrogers9610]

Great video jack and Megan i been enjoying all the videos looking forward to seeing what is next all the best Ron

[@itsJackandMegan]

[@sebastianworboys4150]

This would be one of your best and funniest videos. Enjoy watching your guys every week 😀

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much 😊😊

[@grahamjones504]

Great episode as always guys.

[@nataliespurr3295]

Love this place! Stayed there about 6 years ago and it was a highlight of our trip.. loved all the animals you name it it was there. The cow was only a calf back then and the owner was feeding it with a bottle. The shower was awesome perfect temperature water straight out of the ground. We talk about it regularly and we will get back one day.

[@nataliespurr3295]

Also we really love your videos 👏

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks for watching Natalie! Such an incredible place isn’t it! We’d definitely like to revisit ourselves 😄 so glad you’re enjoying the videos!

[@doctoredic]

The water in the Mary K pit is that blue green because of the Uranium that was mined there.

[@2008hsimmo]

Just real life ,love watching every week hard to beat .Keep the great vids coming

[@sutto70]

We really enjoy your videos for showing us what life on the road is really like - good days and not so good days. Keep doing what you are doing! Thanks for sharing your adventures :)

[@TheCotswold]

Guys, you both produce great material, however, personally the style and format of this was excellent - you feel like you have been invited into the experience. Keep doing it - and it looks like you both enjoyed the relaxed format too. Safe travels

[@itsJackandMegan]

Hey Angus sorry for the late reply here! Thanks so much for the kind comment we really enjoyed creating this video it was just so much fun!

[@stephencawrse9940]

Great video 👍 spending time with all those animals wot a fantastic place cheers legends

[@jamesalchin2771]

Loved the video, well done 😊👍

[@jameshigson6930]

Keep on doing what you're doing, guys. The mix of material is great.

[@Jaqeroo]

Absolutely luved the episode!!

[@philnichols3190]

Yes hard to describe the raw honesty of your video. Two beautiful people enjoying each other's company as they travel. My partner and I at the time and I'm talking like nearly 30 years ago also traveled from Perth WA up the West Coast to Kununurra through QLD , Cloncurry was one of our stops then Newcastle . Coincidentally my partner at the time her name was Meagan. Also in a Toyota Land Cruiser 19 74 model. Happy travels to you both.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks for the kind words Phil 😊 wow the old 74 landcruiser would have been awesome you would have so great memory’s in that hey!

[@jakehanson3928]

That was a very funny episode with all the animals. Another great video

[@bigpete1]

Fantastic! That farm stay was hilarious!

[@itsJackandMegan]

It was honestly so funny! The bloody goats coming down the road 😂😂😂😂

[@trevorspary134]

Really enjoying 😉 this side of your travel story. Hope your enjoying Queensland.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks Trevor! We really enjoyed filming the episode they way we did was so much fun!

[@richarddmogg1]

Hand reared baby goats are awesome fun. This one is about 6 weeks old. BTY we have a goat farm...

[@bobrodgers2335]

you guys have nail it with your natural way of filming, enjoyed that very much, can you share where that camp site was? till next week have a great trip. Cheers

[@conellisgreatadventure8864]

Awesome video, very genuine. My 6 year old daughter loved the animals, apparently we’re going sometime lol. Go the baked beans, least you both ate them so you’ll be both letting of gas, wouldn’t wanna be a fly hitching a ride in your troopy for a day or two lol oh the turkeys are not turkeys, there Guinea fowl and when you have an excess there awesome roasted in the oven 😀

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks for watching guys!! The kids would have an absolute ball at the farm stay! Definitely would want to avoid being a passenger in the Troopy a few days after that meal 😊😂😂😂

[@gregmanders7172]

That was a very entertaining video guys. Well done.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks Greg! 🙏👍😊

[@vin6455]

much better vid Meaghan such a sport and being on camera and telling it as it is luved it safe travels

[@calebshore8222]

Definitely enjoyed it amazing video I love any style of video u post love you guys keep it up you guys keep inspiring me to be like you guys one day. Keep doing what your doing

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks Caleb appreciate it mate 😊

[@clarrievivian4208]

Totally enjoyable, nothing wrong with bake beans & egg on toast. Bake beans are a good base for any imaginative recipe - add cut up sausages or spam, anything you like. That goat looked about spit size🐐, sorry Meagan😁

[@itsJackandMegan]

😂😂 the goat was a good size hey 😂😂

[@dustysgarden2254]

Mount Isa area is awesome and full of places to explore. If you ever get to go back, go checkout the Maltese crosses.

[@itsJackandMegan]

I’m sure we’ll definitely be back one day! Gotta love outback Queensland 🙌🏼

[@savethebeeeez]

Thanks for another excellent video M & J! Can’t wait to see all your QLD adventures 💚

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks for watching! We are so stoked to be in QLD!

[@desmondfrost1763]

This is a incredible video I am looking forward to the northern territory still 12 months away

[@Camma57]

Haha love the goat! Great clip and plenty of laughs along the way! Do what makes you happy that's the raw part!

[@TheDeansAroundOz]

We stayed at that camp too, fantastic place. We were only going to stay the night but ended up staying a week! Great video, just subscribed

[@itsJackandMegan]

Brillant hey! I take it your talking about the gated one? Thanks for subscribing appreciate it 😊😊

[@TheDeansAroundOz]

@@itsJackandMegan yes mate the gated one. We have been travelling for 4 years now and have visited some amazing places. That place would have to be in my top 5 spots, that’s for sure

[@mickmiddle3331]

A wonderful episode this week. Thank you so much.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much Mick! So glad you enjoyed it ☺️

[@beverleygibbons2005]

Real, raw and we're all for it. Love this style of video from you guys. Looking forward to the next one😁

[@jasonbarnes5605]

You guys are hilarious! Loved the episode! Gorgeous photography certainly glues the production together really well. Keep the raw coming 👍.

[@gordocampbell9254]

Loved it one of your best videos 🤗🤗🤗

[@gtgrandcruising]

Great video as usual. Did like this format too, it shows a reality so simple and honest. Waiting for my alucab install, not troopy I have to admit but isuzu dmax. Looking forward to tracing some of your footsteps. Where do you normally collect your drinking water? You ran out this episode. Keep up the great videos and journeys.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Hey Gary. Most towns will have drinking water otherwise we would normally ask a caravan park 👍😊

[@ShaneNixonFamily]

That was pretty cool. The sunrise with the roo was outstanding. I've seen monkeys saying hello to people in baths before but never a roo 😂 And the goat was adorable. Actually when we drove across the north west the animal we saw the most, except for roos, were goats. They were everywhere. The buggers can climb trees so you drive past a random tree and there would be half a dozen goats perched in the branches. Excellent video, great stuff!

[@itsJackandMegan]

Yes they’re everywhere hey! Apparently they’re a pest but they’re so cute 😂 how good was the roo coming up to the bath hey we couldn’t believe it! All the animals were so laid back and were very comfortable living on the farm.

[@theresabrown1230]

Loved this episode. Very real and makes me want to get out there and get our Landcruiser on the road! Thank you for sharing your amazing adventures ❤️

[@chelseapartway725]

Yes!!!! Enjoy watching you guys but that was extra awesome 👍 kind of helps see myself in it a little when it's even more realistic / day to day. Appreciate the work that goes into this, so thank you 🙂

[@lesleymercieca6571]

Great video, the farm stay with the animals was hilarious 🐐🐐🐐🐓🐓🐓

[@peterbrett7000]

It's a beautiful spot East Liechardt dam near Mt isa. We spent a lot of time camping and water skiing on the dam when we lived there. Crocodiles are just freshwater crocodiles so they don't worry you unless you threaten them.

[@martysib6547]

Last time I patted a goat my hands stunk for days. (At the Pondering Frog in Tassie) Those pillows seem to have a couple of uses, propping up the storage lid and to rest against while leaning back. Maybe they can stay. That was a fun video with quirky music at the animal farm. Marty from Perth

[@itsJackandMegan]

Finally the pillows have grower on you 😂😂😂

[@peterbrabrook928]

Love it!!!! We do packet pasta with eggs like you did your bake beans, its a quick and easy meal that, and tastes alright too.

[@charlescoventry6193]

Great video, i really enjoy following your journey and seeing if I can workout where you stayed. We will be heading up north in a couple of months and I think my wife will really enjoy the farmstay. Not sure if I will try and get the van into the Rosebud station site as the road looks a little rough. Thanks again for the great video.

[@itsJackandMegan]

You will both love the farm stay! Yes a lot of the WikiCamps reviews say to not take a caravan unfortunately! Thanks so much for watching ☺️☺️

[@LimestoneCoastCustoms]

Ba Ha, the first thing I do with each new place is search for it so no need to mention the name when there's a sign there 😁 It's interesting to follow your path during the video & I always learn stuff about places (all these places I have pages open on another screen & often pause the video or read up later) Thanks for another great video (even though I'm not a fan of goats, but that little guy was certainly cute)................ Oh! Routines belong with work so apart from the videos being "kinda work" for you, there's no rules I reckon! (I'm so ready to retire, I just can't aford too, so your Sunday videos do help!) Very entertaining (with my kind of recipe included), Cheers Again!

[@johndunstan3875]

Beautiful couple. I hope you both have a lovely life together and make some equally lovely kids when the time comes.

[@kennethburton9165]

I love your Land Cruiser, that rig would be a rare find here in the states.

[@narellemercer7847]

Love your vid’s Cannot wait to visit this place! PS Jack, the geese are Guinea fowl 😃 I miss my Guinea fowl, he use to follow me around like a puppy dog.

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks so much for watching Narelle! Haha they were the funniest little things!

[@emmagilham3708]

I’m loving the new content from Bali and so glad to hear you both pushing your comfort zones and exploring new adventures I recently brought your cook book which I am using for our camping adventures and wanted to ask a couple of practicality questions We have a fridge like yours how did you best organise it? So you don’t have to pull everything out all the time! And how to keep zucchini, cucumbers and tomatoes from getting squashed?

[@itsJackandMegan]

Hey Emma, Thanks so much for all the support! in regards to the fridge situation its a really hard one we never really worked out anything that worked haha but always kept the softer things on top and to be honest we dealt with so much soggy food over the years from all the bumps we would hit when travelling around.

[@jacjacjacki120]

Loved the video . That place with all the animals was amazing ..

[@itsJackandMegan]

So happy to hear you enjoyed it! It was incredible, we couldn't believe how many animals there were 😵

[@kerrylogan3953]

Thanks guys I loved watching you both with the animals what a lovely experience safe travels

[@itsJackandMegan]

Thanks Kerry! That cow was massive so cool how it comes every night and sits around the fire with everyone!

[@warwickkilworth1362]

Love the format of this vid guys and while you said it was raw I thinking it was nicely edited. Keep it and we are enjoying going through your previous vids. Love it! P.s we are from Perth so not bias at all 🤣

[@lianaslemmings2727]

Love Love Loved this episode. You made us feel as if we were there too. Can’t wait for the next one

[@itsJackandMegan]

Oh so glad to hear that Liana, thanks so much!

[@louiskudlak2241]

Loved this video you 2 ❤️❤️ one of my favourites 🤩🤩🤩 you are sweet together, more of these are cool
