FIRST EVER Q & A - Jump in the truck with us!!!

[@anneosullivan3498]

Cop the side eye you got from Zena when she saw the size of Zuri's toy bag. Zena is amazing! She kept herself entertained for ages after she woke up. Zuri is amazing! She went straight back onto her ipad after the convo about the things she liked about travelling.

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Yes Ze has become a very good little traveller! At the beginning we had some challenging days but now she loves it (most of the time anyway!) and Zu is THE BEST!! So proud of her ☺️

[@coversadventurecapers2838]

Off the beaten track adventure is what we love to see more of. But you find amazing gems anywhere you travel.

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Great to hear 😍🤙🏻

[@clairebelle8389]

Absolutely loved this, fantastic. You guys create inspiration to live your best life. Thanks and appreciation 🌟🌸

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

It’s our pleasure! So glad you enjoyed the Q & A 🫶🏻😄

[@PhilBubner]

Another great show and so informative. From my perspective there is nothing that you need to do as it cannot get any better. Your honesty and love of life is infectious, keep it up ❤❤❤❤

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

THANK YOU 😍👍🏻

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Great to hear!!!!!

[@debthornton8164]

Fantastic episode, love the Q&A. The memories you are creating with your girls, priceless ❤ I hope/will get the hubby out travelling more before his Parkinson’s gets worse

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

We really hope you guys get out more this year too!!! ❤️🫶🏻

[@jasonbarnes5605]

Worst questions but the best answers on a Q & A that I have ever seen. You guys dealt with it extremely well. Simply became pure entertainment. I watched this episode on New Year's Eve so I guess I need to wish a happy 2025. Looking forward to more OKA adventures

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Haha this comment made us laugh 😂 well maybe you need to throw in some questions next time - what questions would you ask?? Thanks for following along…🤙🏻

[@jasonbarnes5605]

Great that you had a laugh! Nothing serious going on here, just enjoying your channel and this q&a was so entertaining. I guess the question I would ask is- are you nearly done with Australian travel hence the move to overseas, or will you be motivated to do more travel in Oz when you get back?

[@batlowboy9368]

I love that you're chasing your dreams, unfortunately most of us get stuck in the daily grind, please keep motivating us with your inspiring vids, think it's time the wife, animals and I did the same. Have a bonza time!

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Yesssss hit the road 🤙🏻 see you out there!!!! And thanks for following along :)

[@maddog.mcewan]

[@geoffwilson7774]

Hi guys, great content always, don’t change anything…can’t wait to get to travel along with you guys….safe journey to you all n thanks for sharing your experience 🤙🏽

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

So glad you are enjoying the journey!!!!

[@Trooperuss]

Thanks for the long form update. The positive vibe you both bring keeps a smile on me. Would love to see you take the Oka on some challenging tracks (mud, rocks, riverbeds). Also would like to see some footage of when/where you use the bikes. Yes please create some merch.

[@DerekLobwein]

Hey guys. Just rinse and repeat. Love what you’re doing, love the straight forward chat with no bull shit. Happy New Years guys. See you on the tracks. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Cheers mate, thanks for watching 🎉

[@Paul4x4B]

Yeah on the merch!! Special discount for newy locals!! Get the OKA in the high country!!

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

🤙🏻😄

[@FatTraction]

I'd love to see a detailed video on the Kombi. Showing all the accessories and camping setup. And maybe even the history of it and how it evolved along the way.

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

We might just have to make that happen 😄👍🏻

[@leannechurches5227]

Interesting vid😮 I would like to see more daily family living.,activities. Also how that mean machine tackles the wet,mud,boggy conditions, how to get out of boggy areas.

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Great to hear! We’ve taken that all on board 👍🏻😄

[@rockycoleman1977]

Living life beauty what more could ya want every day is an adventure ❤❤❤

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

😍🤙🏻

[@pholland6643]

Loved this Q&A. Just a suggestion, if you do the Canning Stock Route, factor in the wild flower season in the mid west. Especially if its been a good wet season. Ive watched Zuri grow up, living the ultimate home school experience.

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Great suggestion! 🫶🏻 and thanks for watching!!!!

[@carolmcmillan1108]

My husband and I retired early during covid … realising that time was going too quick like you say …didn’t have a lot of $ just made the decision to live and travel in our little poptop or sometimes airbnbs and to see and do as much as we can while we are fit & able and it’s been the best decision ever 👌 living the best life and time to spend with our grandkids is a bonus 🥰 happy days.. loved the Q& A can’t wait to see what’s in your future travels

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

You guys are livin 👏🏻 so happy reading your comment!!! ❤️

[@suecarey9127]

Always so good watching you, love your videos I watched an American older couple travel through South America and having their van put on ships at various stages and they took so much protection on the van incase it got broken into cause like you said it's their home and yes it did get broken into and they lost heaps, so saying that do a lot of research about it, can't wait for the next video

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

So true, you never know what can happen!!! Thanks so much for following along … we love sharing our adventures 🤙🏻

[@michael-mn9xs]

Great to see you guys having a plan without planning 😀 I enjoy your videos good luck from the old Newy guy ❤😅

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Haha yes that’s how we roll!! Plan but not too much of a plan… 😂 gotta have room to be spontaneous

[@jocoates3956]

We LOVE following your journey. Love how spontaneous you all are. You guys are never boring. Even when your rambling and in Karstins words “Talking 💩”. Don’t change anything. The scenery you show is what we enjoy seeing most. The stuff you’ve always done. Drones shots, wildlife. You’re inspiring. In 2025 We are going up to Cape York from Melbourne. Can’t wait to go 🫶🫶

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

SO GREAT TO HEAR 😍 we will just keep on keeping on!!! Haha!!

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Cape York is going to blow your mind!!! We will be heading back there too… can’t wait 👏🏻

[@damianslattery2298]

Hey Guys, thanks for the videos. If I was taking that truck overseas, a couple of places I would be thinking about going would be Canada and/or South Africa. Have a great time wherever you finish up.

[@dar9752]

You are always happy! It's great to see you, you've been to incredibly beautiful places, and I'll be following you in the future.. I wish you a very Happy New Year and many more wonderful trips, from Hungary...(what happened to the station wagon?)

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Thank you so much for your message and thanks for following along!!! We still have our Kombi she’s just having a rest at the moment. The plan is for her to make some guest appearances in the future 🤙🏻😄

[@craigsalter1632]

Come to the Riverina in NSW and I would love a singlet with your logo and on the back and one of your favorite sayings on the front in gray color

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Definitely aiming for merch to happen this year! And may make it to the Riverina 🤙🏻

[@justinecotton4328]

We have done a lot of Europe in a kombi and then returned back to Oz and are about to set off exploring Oz in a 4 wheel drive “Explorer motorhome. ‘ Whatever you travel in oka (or kombi ) and wherever you go europe/asia/america you are creating memories that will not only last a lifetime but will change your lives forever. I love watching your adventures and your family grow. I would like you to cover in the future things like when planning to take the Oka overseas the logistical aspects eg. How do you insure it for overseas travel, overseas breakdown cover,overseas medical cover and shipping it, who with? Roll on or roll off, container etc etc. we have shipped two kombi from Oz to UK and it was pretty easy and cost effective but shipping something a bit bigger than a kombi to a Country where you are a traveller not a citizen is a whole new ball game., and I for one would love to know how to do this. 😉

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Hey Justine!!! Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your travels and what you’re interested in knowing more about. We have taken that all on board… 😄

[@wendymacfarlane5320]

Yes merch for sure

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Ok…. Sounds like we will make it happen!

[@davidmilledge221]

You guys are cool keep doing what ya doing anything from you is great entertainment your on a winner guys 👍

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

So good to hear 👍🏻😄

[@alysonwiebe1677]

Don’t forget about Canada! Start in Vancouver and drive east all the way across to Newfoundland. Experience the Rocky Mountains to polar bears in northern Manitoba to lobsters in Prince Edward Island. 😊 Not to mention, our conversion rate with the AUD is much better. 😉

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

That sounds insanely good 😍🤙🏻

[@garyb47]

We have done a motorhome trip from Anchorage in Alaska through Canada to Yellowstone National Park and across to Seattle. When you do the USA, do the lot including Alaska and in their Fall (our terminology is Autumn) and get the fantastic colours. A lot of Canada and Alaska has "off the beaten track" type roads as well as lots of wild animals all over the place.

Grate Q&A love how honest you are about life and how short it is. I lost my husband to cancer just over a year ago, so your right live every day to the full. I would love to see you do more of the Victora high county. I liked seeing your trip to Bali looking to seeing more things from other countries. love that you asked us what we have planned, i don't plan a lot but love getting away just for the weekend exploring small towns around vic maybe grate ocean road

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

So sorry to hear about your husband 💔 … life sure is precious. We really hope you get to fulfil your goal of doing more short trips… Australia is full of beautiful friendly small towns. Would be lovely to cross paths one day and have a chat!

Since you asked, I am interested in OKA. So more questions 😀 Couldn’t join the live Q&A . A. What is your OKA drive away price ? B. Average fuel consumption ? 20 litres per 100 kilometres ? C. Extra price for CTIS option ? D. Freely availability of spare parts ? E. Are there a network around Australia or do you have to drop your OKA to Perth HQ for service or repairs ? Glad to see the two daughters sitting comfortably in the rear 🥰

So hubby n I got the 1977 Toyota Coaster and currently about to cut a hole in the roof for our aircon, once it's not so hot, highly unlikely here in SA. 😆 Our small amount of personal items are about to live in storage and hoping in February 2025, we are hitting the road full time, no direction no time limit.

Then want to travel The Gibb River Road, Kimberley’s & Pilbara, Coral Coast, Ningaloo there is literally so much to see in WA. As you can read lots more adventures ahead for the retired Smiths, hope we cross tracks on the road with you guys - safe travels and Happy 🎉 New Year ❤😊

We plan to save money for our dream truck to be able to start our adventure ..

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Thank you for sharing!!!!!!

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

What type of truck are you after???

[@BEAM0781]

Most probably an Iveco Eurocargo 4x4 of 14 tons, the one with large single wheels on the back. It is pretty popular and affordable here in Europe. The other option would be an IVECO daily 4x4 of 7.5 tons but there is a trend among overlanders in Europe that says the 7.5 tons gets quickly filled and you often run out of payload. Mercedes trucks would be nice but the price range makes it not worth it..

[@JT-zm7wz]

Hi Karstan have you considered getting some hair clippers and cutting hair off. I've been clipping my own hair for 30 years and the benefits are way better than stuffing around with hair, especially long hair: cooler in the hot weather, no combing hair, hair instantly dry after shower, much quicker to shampoo, looks super neat, and looks way better than long hair, etc etc. with your own clippers it's Free haircuts. Get 2025 off to a great start, clip all the long hair off !!!

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

🤣 who knows what the future holds but for now I’m happy with my hair 👍🏻

[@JT-zm7wz]

@KarstanAndMaxine ok, I see your hair getting in your eyes while you were under the truck, easy solution clip off the hair, then you can enjoy all the many benefits. Great video you just posted

[@chrissoulakatsaros3299]

Hi guys you are beautiful. I love your two children and your smile and you are very very good now. I just wanna tell you I’m 74 years old. My husband 79 and we plan to do around Australia so tell me it’s gonna be difficult because it’s 16,500 k’s the whole thing. How long do you think will take us to do that? Some people tell us three months some six months so I just want your opinion thank you so much. Please let me know you’re the best and we like to see more views and more and because I’m half French you should go to France Mont Blanc that’s what you need to go. My son keep going in there all the time and this is my dream but I’m told for that and also grace Greece with your truck isn’t gonna be very easy because it’s got too many islands but you have to see it honestly thank you so much for your time. You can answer me back a few questions if you like. Take care. Best wishes for 2025.👍🏼🌹😀

[@KarstanAndMaxine]

Hello there!!! We are always happy to help. Look in terms of timing it really comes down to how you like to travel… you can take your time or do it slow. Will you be just staying along the coast or heading inland? You could take months or years? Australia is huge!!!!

[@Cuppa500]

Q. What do I want more of & less of? A: More being in places & less driving footage would be good. That said I really feel like you are moving in that direction anyway. Karstan I appreciate your honesty about 'hyper focussing' on problems & also what I have come to call floundering. Both are things very familiar to me. It can be painful at times either wrapped up in solution finding or feeling directionless between 'chapters'. However, for myself at least I have come to see these things as necessary evils, & the more we travel, the more confident I become that the next 'direction ' (ie. the shape of the next chapter) will emerge, or that one way or another we will manage to 'get through'. This builds confidence & knowing that informs the next time it happens. It is now an expectation which no longer takes me by surprise. I love the freedom which comes from flexibility, & now see the times of floundering as simply being the occasional cost. If that makes sense? You & I are not the same, but I do think we have much in common, including having a wonderful partner to share the adventures with & who also provides support, encouragement & direction when it's needed. Complimentary teamwork. Seeing this video has helped to cut through the 'content provider/influencer bullshit' & has made things seem real again.Ta appreciate it. A move away from everything being 'exciting & awesome' gets top marks from me. Safe travels. Hope we might catch up at Silverton at the end of March.

Sorry but I couldn't finish watching this as Maxine rabbits on way way too much about stuff instead of just answering the question and including every motivation for everything in her life that lead up to that decision *sigh*.
