As a senior couple that sold up everything some years back and just chose the nomadic lifestyle your comments were spot on. It’s not for everyone but for anyone contemplating this life give it a crack. Not every day is perfect but the ones that are make up for it. Safe travels guys.

Yes, you are right. He is spot on. We sold up 12 months ago and don't miss anything. Saying that we are empty nesters. The kids have their own life now, own family, own household etc. So it is really only us. The freedom of not needing to feed any mortgages, not getting bills and be free to move on when we want is really an experience! It's all about what you need and what you want. Different considerations if you have kids/teenagers. Absolutely true!

Thank you for the terrific, well produced videos, love the way you don't focus on one thing for too long unless its a panoramic or drone shots. Its great to see a perspective of your day, the locations you visited without it dragging on. The music is fantastic and perfectly placed. Its a credit to yourselves considering how much time and effort is required to produce them. My misso and I have watched many Australian youtube caravanning videos including all of your episodes. Yours are our favorite as we love the banter and the kids enjoying themselves. Great times and good laughs. Poor Megan getting frightened all the time but funny :) Our first episode was where Megan had a hangover at Kalbarri lol. After we viewed that we went back and viewed all the episodes! I like the episodes on your set up with the car and van also your maintenance tips. Sad to see the end of the episodes however we look forward to seeing more videos in the future when you get out and about. All the best

The why we live as we do rang home to us big time. As we have been binge watching your channel we constantly look to one another and agree …. This guy makes such sense. And the valuable input as to why and how in all you do Allan we say thank you 💯 Can’t wait for more guys. Megan and the girls we just love. What a beautiful real family 🙏🏻🙏🏻💯💯🥰🥰

We too just got back from six months on the road. We traveled similar places to what you showed. They are all amazing in there own way. I too had the same opinion on how long you need to see this wonderful country and agree with you one hundred percent. You could spend a lifetime travelling Australia and still not see everything! Oh I forgot. You would of drove through a town called Little Topar. That serves up the best pub meal ever!!

Adam & Megan, we thoroughly enjoyed the series, thanks so much for sharing your trip with us. We have not done a big trip like yours yet and therefore found the content very interesting, well filmed and very informative. We also have a Titanium caravan (18ft) and are planning a 2 month trip in May and June next year. We will be doing the Oodnadatta, Tanami and Gibb River tracks so I am interested to know if you would recommend any changes to the van before a big trip like yours. Thanks again. Regards Tony

Hey guys firstly love your videos and agree what time you have is what you have. I’m a truck driver for 41 years nearly 12 million ks and I’m going to see some of it in my caravan and many years ago I meet a couple that had been travelling for 22 years in the same caravan and showed me a map of where they had been. To add to this they where nearly 80 and told me they hadn’t seen Australia, you do what you can.

We did one quick 3 week trip from Adelaide to Margaret River (definitely not long enough, but so glad we made the most of the time we had) and now have the bug to do some more. I was just agreeing with everything you were saying in this vid and loved your realistic view of travel. Will be going back to watch your whole trip 😃 See you out on the road 👍

So true mate, we did it in our 20s and when we are in our 40s and in our 50s we never had the fancy van or four-wheel-drive like that but we did see the crap at campsite around the country. It hasn’t change much 30 years in the last time we did it Now it’s 77 but you must have a bass to go back to like we had when you get older you’re gonna have somewhere to go when you’re finished travelling because your health goes down hill, I’ve had to knee replacements and a hip. You can’t do that. We are travelling at older ages.

Well said the reality trap we all get caught in. my thoughts are exactly the same. Walk around your house and look at all the crap ya spent ya money on over the years. What will follow is a slap in the face. Have gone through the same thoughts and process and not far from either moving over seas (already own land) and or live on the road. Its just a case of having the balls to do it, and thats where most fall over. Still on the cards though. Great series and well done.

Totally agree with your rant But don’t take too much notice of all this sea level rising rubbish, insurance company’s are just using it as an excuse to put rates up Just ask any commercial skipper how much the sea has risen Small islands in the pacific are suffering erosion not rising sea levels I see the same lunch worked out well 😂😂😂 What a pity about the wind,you had the beach to yourself Another fantastic episode 🏆🏆

I'm 💯 % with you on owning a home vs full time caravan life.. I am currently saving for a Y62 haven't decided on a van yet, but want off grid and free camp as much as possible. As you said surely it's a smaller footprint and cheaper lifestyle.. we all have a car anyway so that isn't a cost.. it's the van rego insurance etc.. way cheaper than a mortgage

👏🏻👏🏻congratulations it was great to watch not only the pre trip thoughts and processing through to following your trip. Well done Interesting on the house/caravan thing . Friends have done that sold everything and have a van but have also got a permanent on-site van down at Port fairy, which they use in the Dec/Jan months then head off again. Have you bought a pub in Peterborough and Megan is going to do meals 😂😂 🤙🏻

Great vid guys! Love the idea of art on the Nullarbor or anywhere you travel actually - but just do not get caught if your a bit shy! 😂 Your rant was 💯% accurate - just some pigs out there that do not give a damn about the environment! Now, your thoughts on living in the burbs is totally correct for some of us that actually question life. I am now 62 and this has been my question for 29 years, but because of kids was not willing to do anything but keep riding the merry-go - round of life and the debt we create. However in last 6 months sold my share in a business and literally selling up our couple of properties and planning to give our 3 kids a chunk each to get them sorted and then we will become nomadic for 3 months at a time and then go back to our base for a month … jump on a plane each year to visit friends and basically enjoy the fruits of working since 18 and same goes for my wife! Keep on trucking and sure you will keep up travel but maybe during school hols!

Hi Brent, no rust protection mate I just wash it down after being on the beach, generally it held up well. Next few episodes covers getting home, the ute and the van washing and fixing a few things.
