Andrew, you have been the biggest influencer for this type of travel than anyone I've come across or met. Grateful for your gifts to us. Please keep it going!
The mark of a true professional. Still learning and admitting they’re still learning no matter what your experience. Wonderful video from an envious Canadian.
Camp fires - I’m 61 and I thought I knew it as well as you did. Many years in the SE Air Force had convinced me I knew this shit. - We never get too old to learn, Andrew. ❤️
There is nothing like solo travel. In every aspect, it is utterly liberating. The colour out remote, equally as liberating to see. Very much looking forward to this series Andrew.
Hi Andrew, I’m late to the party as always. Anyway I think that pipeline you see is the goldfields water supply scheme pipeline- 1903 or thereabouts. Engineering marvel and longest in the world- chief engineer killed himswlf afterwards for a variety of reasons. Oh and my tip for you- take worksite quality ear plugs for camping and a dark t shirt you can put over your face- then you won’t get woken up- or put one ear plug in and pillow on other so you can raise head if you think you hear something
The first day out for me is more of a fight, than test of will; Always feels like every little thing is conspiring to prevent my leaving, and it makes me very grouchy, until I reach the "magical place" you described, that lets me know I've made it, I'm on (or off) the road again.
Fire lighting, a skill best practiced under damp or wet conditions, its a dying art from what I've seen from a lot of outdoor RUclipsrs. Great video Andrew, always enjoy the solo trips
G'day Andrew, seems you have now mastered the long fire. Now you need to learn the Siberian Log Fire. Never too old to learn mate, I found the Siberian fire a few years ago. Never needed it here in Aus, but always good to know... Enjoy your solitude.
Welcome back to doing Aussie solo Andrew! So good seeing you again in the Aussie bush with your best ever Troopie Overlander! Great time of the year to be out and about although the heat is already building in SE Qld so being spring, the reptiles are slithering into the sun to warm their winter bodies which make us need to be a little more vigilant .. enjoy and look forward to learning more from your videos sir! Cheers from Brisbane!
I've got a few years on you (not many, but a few) Andrew, and that fire tip was new to me also. Great vid. I'll be doing more solo from now on... can't beat the serenity. Love your work mate. Cheers 🍻
What I always do when making fires is to make it on a grid - coals burn down to dust and there are no unslightly black coals left behind - also burying it does not work cause it get disturbed and then the whole campsite is littered with coals.
Here is a tip. When planning to use the 12 v oven. Put whatever it is you plan to cook in the oven in the morning. On say 50°c. Then drive to your destination. When you arrive. Your battery is full and your pie, lamb shanks n veg are cooked. Ps. You can pre cook at home like spag bog . Mash potatoes. Pies. Deserts. Lamb shanks ect. As an extra meal. Specifically catered to camp meals and portions. For you shower head. Just use an adjustable Nozel. With like a click clac fitting Use the KISS method always. Gr8 vids m8
Really loved the side elevation of the troopy at 19.45sec on this clip......The colour ...Mag wheels ... the lift....and looking at the front elevation of the truck while you were driving....great
Exactly right Andrew, I've been doing camp fires that way for over 35yrs, an old bushy showed me and it's brilliant and your not limited by the size tree/log to use either. And I'm 67 !! Seeya Rob
I do my vehicle checks in the morning. If there is a fluid leak, I am more likely to see it with drips on the ground. Also, the engine is cooler so if I have to work on it I can do it without burning myself. Lastly, checking the fluid levels after the engine has sat idle overnight gives a marginally more accurate reading...but I have my shower in the evening not the morning. Cheers from Jafffa Adventures 👍😎
Beautiful shots, Andrew, as well as sharing your philosophical thoughts about going alone. I hesitate traveling alone because of security reasons. Maybe I shouldn’t? Maybe I should listen more to you?
Living the Van Life is the only other overlanding channel I watch, strange to hear you mention Chad! You both make excellent films, cheers from Yorkshire Andrew!
I only camp solo these days (my wife doesn't enjoy coming out camping at all). Perhaps it's because I don't travel solo as frequently or for as long as you do, but in my years of doing it, I've never descended into benign (or otherwise) insanity. There's always a task to do, a book to read, somewhere to explore, a thing to tinker with, etc. As for knowing when I'm really on a trip, well, I live in the most densely populated state in the U.S.A., New Jersey. Whenever I pass the state border and the road goes down to 1 lane in each direction I breathe a sigh of relief.
LOL Andrew. I had a similar issue recently on my Central Kalahari Trip. Maps would not upload from my MacBook. So I had to rely on routes Tracks for Africa gave me.
2019: was that the Len Beadell Highways where you wished you'd taken Jeramey? They were wonderful solo trips too. So glad you paused Andrew to film those beautiful eucalypts (mallee, wandoo, salmon gums), thank heavens for manual settings. The feed-in long fire (we've never done it any other way) must be an Aussie thing. A very special film this one. Didgeridoo at the end :) Thanks so much.
I did my best to find the song @ the end but no luck (the one after you fixed the shower), please share? What a beautiful travel song! That will be my song to start of my Cederberg trip this coming December.
Really nice video Andrew. I agree about reaching a certain place when you feel you’re on the way. For me, it’s Mildura, on my way to Flinders Rangers, once there, I can relax coming from Melbourne.
This style of content is really nice. I always am traveling solo so it's weird if anyone would want to come with me or even meeting up with people along the way. I like meeting people while I am out for some short conversations but as far as going with me (in their own rig or with me in mine) for any length of time is strange. There's not many cars I would trade my 1997 80 series Land Cruiser for but I might consider trading for yours....Man, that is an awesome rig!! ❤
After watching this I went outside to do a quick inspection, deciding to open the hood. Good thing I did. There was an abandoned bird nest up against the battery!!!
I’ve been following your adventures for years and taken your advice on many of my own backroads through east Africa. When if ever will you make it back to the motherland for more long-distance remote travel? Aus is great - don’t get me wrong - but nobody celebrated the joy of Africa overland like you did.
This episode is FANTASTIC! I have a question: Which artist are you suing on the soundtrack at roughly the 24:00 mark, while building the fire. They sound familiar and I love what I’m hearing. Thanks, @4xoverland.
Solo travel, its an interesting topic that can apply to all kinds of adventures. Driving into a small town I or even a district I feel conspicuous and often wish I was driving a stock white Hilux or similar. Andrew my question to you is do you ever wish you could blend in more seeings as your Troopy is so distinctive, and obviously expensive, and worry about unwanted attention?
@@4xoverland not wrong, just the correct way I guess I’m just suck in my army ways still. But it’s good that you’re wearing it not many take pride in that.
It’s War ba tin , not War burton !! 😀 You’re right about first night jitters. I personally don’t like solo travel to remote areas. I’m ok driving during the day but feel vulnerable and a bit lonely in remote areas., I like company around the fire. I’ve only done solo remote a couple of times and now always travel with a friend or two in another vehicle. I had a major engine failure north east of Newman once and we towed my ute 1300km home ( yes we did , took 3 days) If I was by myself I would have been in a heap of trouble. BTW , we’ve always done fires like that, much easier to sit closer to and not bits of wood sticking out all over the place that people trip over. You can teach an old dog new tricks. 😀😀
Australians are over-sensitive to place name pronunciations. There are three completely different acceptable pronunciations for Warburton. But apparently they are all wrong.
Andrew . Hard to believe that you have not addressed the most important question... Where do you buy the beat sausage roll in WA..Im voting for Denmark on the south coast.
Andrew you nevr explained huw you ard able to live in different continents u hindered, ie nationality/backround etc, i love toyota , ! Please explain .
I did once explain it. Born in the UK, moved with family to South Africa as a kid, left SA in 2013 went to live in the UK, then moved to Australia in 2016 now with my own family. My mum was Australian, so I also had a Australian citizenship.
Meant to ask this previously, but for as many times as you've shown your wonderful roof conversion, I've never seen how one actually gets into the sleeping compartment of it.

Dear Andrew. Count please, the amount of time that we can see the scenery in your video and the amount of time we look at your face or some other distraction. Isn't overlanding about the location, the experience? You ask us to go long with you. Where? All the best and may the relevance be with you.
[15:10] Potential Why? I understand that modern Garmin's no longer suffer a space problem, they should sense the space first; then install a new map via the updating process; they will delete your existing maps and then install the updates; however, previous updates may still be there, taking up room and then the installer does not have enough memory for the [New Map] update, leaving you with no maps. My understanding is the newer process will not proceed, inviting you to use the PC for temp storage or use another SD card, leaving your older maps as they were. The newer installers are also seemingly is removing the old installations as well, as that is what happened to me today, installing the latest maps in my device and leaving me overall with more space. I suspect your device was mid process and lost connection. So I'd check if you are allowing auto update! :)
Hi Andrew. As I was watching the part where you are sat with the fire at night, are you worried about snakes/spiders etc and what do you have to protect yourself whilst in the outback. Also great videos and very informative 👍🏻
Most of the animals in Australia that can kill you want nothing to do with humans, and will go out of their way to avoid you. It's worth keeping an eye out for spiders and snakes when you're walking around collecting firewood, but they're extremely unlikely to approach a campfire.
ah makes sense! thank you for your wonderful videos, they've been a comfort in times i've struggled, watching you camp in these gorgeous areas @@4xoverland
Do you want to start a war? My Dad was a true blue Kiwi. Mum an Aussie. Born in England. Lived a long part of my life in SA. One thing it for sure, I can pick and choose. And I have.
Not sure what you mean. Long distance wilderness trips? Yes. Many. Trying the hardest off-road trail just for the fun of it? Yes. But not recently. I don't get my kicks there any more.
Yes, we do funny stuff putting videos together. It should actually classify as a sport, running to a from the camera... You should try it with kids... "why do we have to stop again for a video..."
I dont get your point about the fire doing the cross is just doing the parallel twice. Basically having twice as much timber. Which could be difficult to pile up if you only fed the fire on one axis.

I truly need solo camping missions, it just resets! Thanks Andrew this series is going to be a beaut 😊

On this trip, the shortest day was just shy of 100kms. The longest, towards the end was around 200kms, but the track became very flat and easy by this time.
@@4xoverland thank you very much. By the way, your channel came just recently to my attentention, when you where talking about the Grenadier. Love your clear and straight forward opinion. kind regards Joerg
With your setup doesn’t the interior get full of flys and mosquitoes having the rear doors open for access
Nice. How did you get away with playing Pink Floyd on your soundtrack?
It means I cannot monetise the video. But its allowed.
And its LZ. Led Zeppelin perform 'Kashmir' live at the Ahmet Ertegun tribute concert at London's O2 Arena from the concert film 'Celebration Day'
You should offer guided tours for solo travel haha
good one.
What was the last song? It sounded pink Floyd esque
It was? Kashmir. No monetising this video!

Is that tent nosiy when driving?
not even the slightest hiss. Its part of the roof, a conversion, not only a tent.
On today's show: A man puts tape on his plumbing, Andrew pulls twigs from his undercarriage, and some branches gets laid.
No way that was a beer...............
Previous episode a German man congratulated me on my choice of beer.
What is that box on top of the spare tyre?
You missed a lot of videos. You're a very naughty boy. (It carries tyre stuff, hose, repair kit etc.)
@@4xoverland hahaha. I have missed a few recently!
