Ive tried explaining to my wife why I love going out to the middle of nowhere (north central Nevada for me) and setting up a simple primitive camp out there. She just looked at me like I was crazy. I had her watch this video just now with me on the 75" television and she looked at me and said, "Now I get it." As I've explained it to her before, in the simplest of terms, I love to be out there to see the purist form of our Earth. It's that moment just after sunset, or as Paul described about the the thunderstorms; it's that moment where every sense in your body is being completely enveloped by nothing but the natural elements of the world. It is truly something special to experience that. The most surreal moment I've ever had in my life was riding to Alaska, only 100 or so miles short of Prudhoe Bay. I stopped the bike and just admired the natural beauty this planet has to offer. I felt like I was in heaven at that moment. Not single sound, anywhere, but the breeze blowing through the arctic grasses and bushes. For that moment, I was the only person in the world. Thank you for EVERYTHING that you do. You are the only one I've ever seen that captures glimmers of those moments on video. It's just like a famous music artist said before, "in your head, the melody is heavenly, something you've never heard of. It is a mixture of sounds that is only repeatable in the afterlife. But as a writer, you try as hard as possible to recreate just ten percent of it. And when you do, everyone else believes it's beautiful. Only you know the true beauty in the song that is written."
I know you get high number of views on vehicle build videos. But stories about people and trips - just way better content for the soul. Thank you for putting this together.
When you are born in Africa you never really leave it. I love living in Queensland and all that it offers, particularly the sand islands, But the old familiar places in Africa in your series provide a huge dose of nostalgia. You never really leave.
I was lucky enough to share a van with Paul Marsh for 2 months driving from Ireland to Eastern Siberia. What an amazing guy! Top of my list for any trip any time. Stay safe my friends. 'Dr Rich'
You'll be happy to know that the grotty-looking Cape Agulhas lighthouse (at 0:21) has since been beautifully restored. Built in 1848, it is the 2nd oldest still-operating lighthouse in SA.
Always great to see Paul! He's always down to earth. It's my observations that well traveled people are usually very humble! It's a win for us in the industry to have people like him in this industry. More videos of both of you. It's always great seeing you both chit chat about offroad and global travel!
Thank you Andrew. Always a pleasure to visit with your adventures. Your truly blessed to have the opportunity and support for your ongoing business venture as well as the pure joy of traveling. Paul Marsh is a brilliant adviser/friend whom anyone of us would be proud to have. 🍻Cheers, and safe travels🍻. Gabe Szekeres, In beautiful Boulder City Nv. USA.🤙🖖
Andrew , your videos are always a massive inspiration but right now , with all that's happening in the world and being in self isolation , your films are making me even more hungry for an adventure into the middle of nowhere . Keep up the excellent work please . Best wishes from the UK
Andrew as we are all in lock down in Australia your videos are so important for people to dream while they are facing an uncertain future. Please upload old videos we have not seen from your collection. You can play an important role in these times.
Hi Andrew Wow ;-) What a great Video! You and Paul Marsh are a great team! Please continue and surprise us with more this great content in the future. Best Regards from Berlin and stay healthy, Dirk
Thank you Andrew! Cooped up and feeling stir crazy here in New England, USA. I appreciate you generating so much content right now for us home-bound folks! Also, lovely storytelling as always. I really needed this.
Awesome to see some of the old footage Andrew! like Paul said about Africa, I have the same feeling about Australia and I completely get his emotion of being somewhere out bush and cleansing ones soul. having been here since 2012, I cant think of another country I would want to settle in. I love Africa and some parts of the middle east but as a wise friend once said "we all got to live somewhere" Cheers Andrew 😎
Paul Marsh and ASPW - Overlanding's answer to Morecambe & Wise, Starsky & Hutch or Tom & Jerry. If amazon or netflix commissioned a series with these two, I'd seriously have to consider getting a subscription.
There are a lot of 4x4 shows on but your trips are whot we can all do even on a budget but the most important thing Is how you tell the story behind each trip thank you
Another great storytime Andrew. Have meet Paul a few times when I worked at Apb trading Kidderminster and several landrover shows. Nice chap and full of knowledge in vehicle preparation.
You two balance/compliment each other perfectly , and... banter, so well. Haven’t had a proper rusk in ages, but will be making Biltong again this week. Cheers from Oregon and have a sundowner / OBS for me, Western AU looks like a proper spot
i think this is the shortest 24:41 minutes I've experienced... i just started watching and its done... Thanks Andrew, I really enjoy your channel... Hope to see you when you pass through Zambia...
That was probably the most inspirational video i have watched in a long time. Thank you both for sharing your adventures and please keep them coming Andrew. Im guessing we will all be stuck at home here in Australia some time soon.
Wonderful documentary Andrew! I love your story telling. Paul is an absolute gun! You two together on the Canning Stock Route series was epic! A lot of good chemistry between you two. Goes to show that aside from vehicles and equipment, the most enhancing element of a big trip is great company.
Hello, i am new to 4x4 and recently bought a Pajero Sport Wagon K90 from 1999. And i started to watch your videos wich are very good . I saw that in you videos about Mitsubishi they did not liked the opinion and do not give you any more cars for test, and i feel that is not right and hope that you make more videos about Mitsubishi. Here in Portugal and south Europe as we have less buying power, we use many cars from years 1990-2000's. Mitsubishi Pajero L040, V20 and few V60, Nissan Terrano I and Terrano II, Galloper, Patrol Y60 and a few Y61. Toyotas are the rarest because of the price, but the common seen are the 90 series. Hope you make more videos about these. My passion came from my father that had a BJ40 (most liked 4x4 by far), Patrol 260 series (very poor 4x4, i think it was a very bad performance series made in Spain), L200 Strada (2nd gen, it was very good 4x4 but drank a lot of diesel) and a Ford Ranger from the year 2000 i think (that here in Europe was basically a Mazda B2500 with the Ford symbol, a very competent 4x4 with very low consumption).
I think you had one of the best sleeping arrangements in the troopy you just sold. Looking forward to see how you better that in the new build. Love seeing Paul again.
Absolutely beautiful. Funny, lots of great humour, the beautifil African scenery, I really envy the cameraderie at the camping and..and.. Thank you so much for posting.
Another great video. Paul Marsh is such an interesting person and so with you gives one an insight into a beautiful country as well as great information
Really enjoyed this one Andrew, enjoy many of your films/series - but somehow this had just that extra touch. Thank you for the sticker recently received, now displayed on the small rear window on my Defender.
Thank you for this video. I love travelling through Africa so much. So far, we've done it in rented cars. Now, we're preparing our Troopy overlander to take us through 6 continents. I just hope humanity will cope with the pandemic and long distance travels will be safe and possible again.
@@4xoverland Pretty useful really. You can ask him to film you driving from a distance. Then he'll just teleport back into the vehicle with all the camera gear!
Paul is the most down to earth person I’ve ever “met”, thanks for introducing him to us Andrew
He recently made his own youtube channel check it out...ruclips.net/channel/UCcL60cDFf6kGzfj7uGGqv_w

Every time Paul tosses his tent and runs away I laugh. It never gets old🤣
And he’s such a great guy to listen to and learn from.
I know you get high number of views on vehicle build videos. But stories about people and trips - just way better content for the soul. Thank you for putting this together.
And I have far more fun making them!
Keep them coming Andrew, we just sitting at home for now.
@Viktor Sligo same here, gota work!!!
When you are born in Africa you never really leave it. I love living in Queensland and all that it offers, particularly the sand islands, But the old familiar places in Africa in your series provide a huge dose of nostalgia. You never really leave.
No matter where you come from, any place always leaves an impression on one's self.
Whenever Paul Marsh is with you the experience will be extraordinary...

I'm a simple man. I see "Paul Marsh" and I immediately click like.
You never fail to please Andrew. Always enjoy the addition of Paul Marsh and have much respect for him. Love the subtle ending.
The episodes where Paul Marsh participate are my favorites! 🙏❤️🚙
Watching Paul pitch his tent was the best part of the Canning Stock.
Friendships like this are rare! Thanks for sharing
You guys like Laurel and Hardy ! Respect the work you guys do and the moments you share with us 🙏
What a wonderful film! Good job using your time (self-isolation) and resources (hours of footage) to produce a bit of art.
Paul needs his own channel 100%
That would be great!
However, I would settle for a 4xoverland recurring visit from Paul too.
Always great to see Paul! He's always down to earth. It's my observations that well traveled people are usually very humble! It's a win for us in the industry to have people like him in this industry.
More videos of both of you. It's always great seeing you both chit chat about offroad and global travel!

Gabe Szekeres,
In beautiful Boulder City Nv. USA.🤙🖖
Thats the type of reminder of stories that made your chanel so great.
What can we say , we would love to be on one of those trips .
What a wonderful friendship you two have. Friends like him only come around once in a lifetime if you’re lucky.
I have camped at Hartmanns on my own, magic place. Paul is a legend, no doubt about that.
Andrew , your videos are always a massive inspiration but right now , with all that's happening in the world and being in self isolation , your films are making me even more hungry for an adventure into the middle of nowhere . Keep up the excellent work please . Best wishes from the UK

I get chills every time I watch and listen to either of you. Thank you for keeping me passionate about travel.
The humor between you two is so genuine, Paul seems like a great guy
Wow, just wow. A great video. Thank you for taking us "outside" while we're stuck in self-isolation. Big 👍🏾from Papua New Guinea🇵🇬.
I loved that teleport effect! it definitely got me smiling and in the spirit of the adventure
Very much enjoyed this one Andrew. Rather envious of Paul and his expeditions and the chance to meet so many different people.
I tell you what, that was one amazing video. I must say the way Paul just absolutely kids around, tons of smiles on my face.
Thank you for bringing back these memories...take care and stay safe
I’m watching this at work, I’ve never smiled so much at work.

Learned a lot from Paul Marsh especially from the last workshop with Andrew in the Canning Stock Route.

I love watching you two travel together. A lot of my favourite videos of yours include the dynamic between you guys.

Is how you tell the story behind each trip thank you

Nothing like good friends to share the trails with. Thanks for sharing, George.

Some real highlights! Excellent!
Africa always stays in your heart and soul
Beautiful continent
Awesome video. The chemistry you guys have is what it is all about.
Mate that was off tap! Your storytelling skills are simply amazing.
Great work Andrew...it's almost a philosophy lesson in living colour...4x4 style! Keep safe and let your inspirational mind run free. Regards, Mitch

Fantastic video. First rate capture of the sunset colours and amazing contrast on the Canning Stock route.
Very well put together ❤ life sure is grand! Thank you...
Really enjoyed this one Andrew, enjoy many of your films/series - but somehow this had just that extra touch. Thank you for the sticker recently received, now displayed on the small rear window on my Defender.
The intro was epic....
Quarantine bingin' your channel from SoCal USA
I just got an email telling me this was a patron exclusive, but it popped up here first!
Thank you for this video. I love travelling through Africa so much. So far, we've done it in rented cars. Now, we're preparing our Troopy overlander to take us through 6 continents. I just hope humanity will cope with the pandemic and long distance travels will be safe and possible again.
Loved the vídeo! Thanks!
Andrew, I always love your stories!!
This was great!
I was just thinking the other day it would be nice to see a video about Paul Marsh.
Loved this truck! Thanks for doing these extra videos and stories, mate.
you have a landcruiser and you have a friend, how good is that!
Once again Great Video, informative and valuable content. Love Paul's sense of humor, could do a few camping trips with him.
Absolutely great, thoroughly enjoyed the video, you are even funny so much less serious than usual ......Loved it and would love more thank you
You have been lucky to know him Andrew.
London to Sydney is absolutely HUGE! Maybe do a storytime/podcast thing with him about that!
Very good video Andrew I would love to see more like this 👍
I enjoyed that so much. Andrew that is a stunning video. Well done and thank you
Just a great video!! Cheers Steve
That was AWESOME, Thank you.
Very entertaining! Hell of a team!
So eloquent
Love the CSR. Did it 99. Came off it saying I don't need to do it again. Starting to get the itch again.
Paul is a legend 🤙
Well done very relaxing . Happy Trails
It sure will be great if I get to meet Paul Marsh someday. Never knew he has the ability to teleport.
I once asked him if he could teleport. He refused to answer. Next this I knew, he was gone.
@@4xoverland Pretty useful really. You can ask him to film you driving from a distance. Then he'll just teleport back into the vehicle with all the camera gear!
I love this! Thanks for keeping us entertained! Lovely to see some of South Africa!
