Always the same.......I go on holiday for a rest, and suddenly become inspired to pick up the camera and go off adventuring. I do also mention why I've been away from RUclips.

    Hello Again Alex, I just thought I might add a comment here that I enjoyed your podcast, and that I am thrilled that you have opened up this opportunity for people to share and be a part of a community. I, too, consider myself more of a spiritual person than religious, and I have spent the past 36 years studying and learning about both. To me, it is very much all how one interprets things. I have learned so much from Dr. Joseph Campbell, noted late professor at Sara Lawrence University, amongst many other teachers. Fascinating stuff. My journey now is as a recently retired professional who has suddenly found Life very different. For me, there have been many changes over the past recent years on many different levels...and I find myself turning my mind and heart towards deeper spirituality, as a means of feeling more connected to the world around me, for the first time in many decades. Looking forward to your podcasts. Thanks again.

      Yes, it will be. When I did the podcast before it was on Apple, Deezer, spotify, amazon, google podcasts, etc. However, because I have been off the air for a year, the various platforms made me dormant on their systems. It will need a week or so to catch up and re-establish my podcast feed. Then (in theory at least) as soon as I release each episode, it will be instantly available on the various platforms (Including Apple).

    Great video Alex and very informative. I love the convenience and comfort of a Motor Home. At the moment I have a self built VWT6 which we dearly love and it has taken us to some truly wonderful places and has given us experiences that I wouldn’t have imagined possible for us. Mine has been a post illness project which has been very beneficial in my recovery and life after illness. Mine has become my comfort blanket if you like, my safe place. As my illness left me with a reminder of out battle it does sometimes leave me with an embarrassing problem. Our van gives me the confidence that I can get out of the way and sort myself out and change. Hopefully one day we will upgrade to a coach built MoHo but for the moment our little van serves us well.

    Sometimes the nicest adventures are ones where you just take in the vista's, go nowhere in particular to do nothing in particular, and just enjoy things on the fly...! I was thinking about that bridge, and I wondered if it wasn't just a farmers installment to get from one field to another at one time or a carriage way for the 'muckety mucks' that once lived in the area?? lol ...Perhaps there was a stream or waterway at one time?

I packed a little snack, water, and headed towards the greenhouse first to pick up some clay pots knowing that it would be closed by the time I returned from my picnic at the park. Halfway down this busy freeway, the winds picked up gusting to 60mph(54knots) on the open prairie where I could barely keep my SUV stable!

Your presentation here was by far the best I have seen so far! And I have seen many! When I first saw your motorhome last year, I thought it was magnificent. I can see why you prefer the opposite couches for visitors, but I would much rather prefer a pair of theatre recliners. This unit is perfect size for driving, nice interior with options for sleeping, decent sized bathroom and shower, all the mod coms required for an extended time traveling in all kinds of weather. This is simply perfect for impromptu get-aways, or planned long haul trips. Thank you for doing this! Well done!
