In September 2022, we drove to Corsica and spent a week exploring this amazing island for the first time with our two dogs and our Land Rover Defender 4x4 camper. The Land Rover was great for accessing some of the more remote beaches tucked away at the end of 4x4 tracks, but it wasn't all smooth sailing as we had some mechanical issues mid-way through the trip...classic! 🛠

Magic pace and rhythm to this video. I get lost in my imagination seeing trips like this. I sit down because I’m tired, but watching this I get up because there’s so much to see.

Very nice video of this beautiful island ! We are also looking forward to go there in some weeks again. And great that it worked out well with your brakes - I assume it was Fan de Land - great Garage that helped us also out 2 years ago 😊. Many thanks for the holiday feeling 👍🏼😁🖖🏼!

Hi. Just wondering why you don’t turn the tent around to open at the rear. That’s how I’ve always had mine on my Disco 2. I have a drop down table on the back door and that is my kitchen area covered by the tent floor. You should also think about buying the ladder extension as well. Thanks for your travel blog. Cheers 👍🏻🙏🦘

Thanks for watching Grahame! We mounted the tent to open the side so the gullwing could be covered and we used that surface more often when cooking. Also, the FrontRunner tent needs slight modification to the mounting points if you want it opening to the back on a Defender, it's not a major change, just cutting down the aluminium channels, so we decided to keep it standard 😉

I have a few questions, what kind of camera do you film with? everything you go for a walk do you use a smartwatch? And you make beautiful videos please keep up the good work. and congratulations on your house.

We film everything on a Sony A7IV, it’s nice and small so perfect when we don’t have much storage space in the car, and we recently got Garmin watches for hiking 🏔 Thanks for watching!

Love watching your videos, great cinematic shots and storytelling, thanks for keeping uploading. Love the string lights you have as well, are they from Flextail??

Thank you so much!!🥰 they are from Amazon, but we’ve had a few break on us so definitely looking for a more sturdy option! Are Flextail good?

@Somewhere Wilder Hi wae got a set of flextail ones recently so we have only used them on a 3 day camp so far but they are a really chilled ambient light colour. Its like they have made every 5th or 6th light a slightly different light temperature, so they look more natural 👍 ill give them a bit longer use before i recommend them.

Great video. I’d never thought of Corsica as a possible destination, I’ll add it to my wish list now. How did you find the off road tracks? BTW checking the brakes before you set off on a trip is a good idea.
@SomewhereWilder
@SomewhereWilder Жыл бұрын
Thanks Steve! The 4x4 tracks we drove are all on WikiLoc which makes it easy to find your way around 😊 And yep, checking the pads is now on the pre-trip list!

I love this, and my girlfriend and I also have 2 dogs. I was wondering what you guys do during the hot summer days when both of you need to step away from the car. Or does one of you just always stay with the dogs. Is there a separate A/C unit inside the car and you just keep it running?
@SomewhereWilder
@SomewhereWilder Жыл бұрын
Thanks so much! We’ll always try to take the dogs with us, but if not then one of us is always in the car with the dogs, or we’ll try to find a local park to walk in whilst the other does shopping 🐶 😊

We are about to set of for Corsica and Sardinia in our Series 3. The Garage that you bought the brake pads from looked pretty cool and a useful to know about. Can you remember the name and whereabouts. Cheers John @two_lives_living_it

@SomewhereWilder
@SomewhereWilder Жыл бұрын
it's a Wacaco and the coffee is surprisingly good actually! We've found it's best when you use the Nespresso attachmemt they sell with because if you have to grind and measure your own it's not as strong! We recently upgraded to a Bellman though which is bigger but so good, almost too strong 😅
