Imagine how many hours of film those 15 minutes represent. Then take the timespan to make the journey. I think its really time consuming doing this alone as he is.
You started the video saying this will be the most FREE I’ll ever be. I never knew that when I started my journey, but boy did I learn it. To this day the happiest I’ve ever been was when I lived on the road. 2 years living in OZ 2 years living in NZ 4 years in Canada In Oz I drove half way around Oz and all the way around Taz. I worked the land as a potato picker in Taz, farm hand somewhere in Victoria and a melon picker waaaaay out in the bush somewhere near Cook Town. Funny how I had to lose myself to find out who I am.
Here in Finland and also in Sweden you can forage to your hearts content. Blueberries in July, Lingonberries in September and lots of mushrooms. Some people also know how to find raspberries and cloudberries. What a great adventure you are on!
You give off incredibly soothing and calm vibes, which makes your videos great to watch! It's also highly motivational for me, because I would love to have my own mini camper van, and now I know it can be done really well without having loads of (or in my case: any) experience. Those soothing and calm vibes got me subscribed and all hyped up now 😀!
You have really motivated me in couple last few months. I bought folding bed and mattress for my Skoda Rapid and I plan some nice trips as well. Is incomparable to your van setup, but I am sure I will have some fun! Thank You! Keep up the great work!
Absolutely brilliant to see how far you've come since this channels initiation, Alex. Thoroughly enjoyable as usual, looking forward to seeing where this adventure takes you.
Have fun! Great start to exploring! You must gather more from the wilderness! Fish lots, gather fruit and mushrooms where permitted and also, hunt if you can for wild boars, rabbits and mountain boats, again, where permitted. Besides, you totally should gather wild honey where permitted! Also, work is farms where a decent farm hand, carpenter etc. Is required, you will learn immensely 😇
Hi Alex. Congrats. I slept probably 600 or more nights in my black Caddy Maxi yet. Best decision ever! Best car to do this. Total freedom. But you made the camper conversion. Well done...if it can stay when not needed.
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here
Psychedelics are the reason why i didn’t take my life when i was at my end. I was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity and even though i still battle anxiety and depression, I’m doing better everyday and will never think in such a self destructive way again.
LSD and mushrooms completely changed my whole outlook on life. I became a better version of myself This experience gave me a lot of confidence about my self and my body. A bunch of bad thought / behavior patterns were broken. One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands a lot. It gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine, this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip: Everything is alright. The main reason for the trip was my severe depression and it definitely helped me (although it's not gone). Before all I could do was lay in bed. Now I am trying to rebuild my life one step at a time which wasn't possible before."
tip to save gas less water in your potatoes half boil cover and leave ten minutes also boil rice leave it covered ten minutes cooks its self, looks a great trip
Alex just wanna say good luck on wherever your journey takes you! Been watching “Carl and Alex” for the best part of 5 years so crazy to see how far you’ve both come, your literally living my dream now travelling the world living out of a van is one of the goals for the next 10years. You and Alex have been my inspiration for the last few years I’ve started documenting my fishing And I’ve finally after years of saying I would started to upload some of my fishing adventures! Love your content Alex keep it coming!
I came across your videos when you was looking to buy a van...you've come a long way, and now your going on adventures, something to tell your grandchildren, and maybe help them to convert a van. Enjoy it all, i'm looking forward to the next video, cheers.
Just watched all your back catalogue of videos and just saw this one and when the lady shouted out at you and you said you didn't have a clue what they said I laughed out loud as I heard "like and subscribe" as they more than likely saw the camera equipment lol 👍🏻 great work on the van and keep up the videos 😊
I dont comment much on anything in life really, But ive watched you and your brother for years and now taking this leap on your own and escaping the rat race is my idea of heaven. You should be proud of yourself and your achievments. Watching your videos helps me n probably many others too. Keep up the good work alex. Ps do abit of fishing plz 😉
I feel like just randomly asking random people to meet up is a bit risky, but seems to have worked out. Great videos, cant wait for more of the journey!
I think in general you'll get to suss out who's going to be worth meeting up with, just by continued correspondence with like minded people. On the whole you'd be safe 👍
I grew up in Germany till the age of 14, 40 years later I still miss the beautiful Germany countryside, I am not jealous at all, not. Enjoy your trip Alex and have an amazing adventure
if you'd somehow make foldable legs and fix them at the very end of the "table" you could apply more pressure or weight whilst you're cooking cause most of the weigh would be distributed to the floor. I am super amazed with the whole process and I was so entertaining to watch. Hope you're having a lovely time with your van. Cheers from Germany :)
Just stunning Alex the scenery and wild food.Lovely seeing the Roe deer even if briefly.Being a mushroom lover your dinner looked amazing a nice creamy mushroom risotto next lol.Safe travels all the best.Tony
No waaaay, you've been in my area (Lörrach, Weil am Rhein, Basel, Black Forest). I know most of the spots you've filmed. Glad you enjoyed it & have a nice trip!
Well done Alex 👏 you had a vision, made a plan and executed it perfectly. Proper made up for you ,living the dream. Looking forward to the next one,stay safe 👍 👌👊
Looks a fantastic time your having, look into Geocaching for something to do, in a nut shell a world wide Treasure hunt. You will find a huge amount and will always find some hidden gems and locations along the way. Well worth it doing what your doing now. Keep it #Livingthedream.
Just finished watching your latest video. I'm wayyy older than you but it rekindles some memories of striking out on adventures. Love that you're sharing experiences that I can relate. Look forward to your future adventures. Cheers Alex
the vignette in switzerland you have to put it in the middle top or left side top ;) when you come to canton of valais (switzerland) i can show you amazing mountain lakes and forest with full of mushrooms :)
Loving the new content Alex... Good to see you have a rod with you! You're such a great fisherman, it would be great to see you post a few fishing videos when you get a chance.
Great video with lots of different stuff thrown in, look forward to the future videos of your travels. I backpacked round Thailand and Cambodia for 5 weeks on my own at 37. I was nervous to start with but 3 days in i loved it and wish i could have done longer. Enjoy your experience and make the most of it
Brilliant editing and content.... Love the scenery... What an epic adventure so glad you take us along ! You look very happy and content... looking forward to next vid
I'm afraid I'm going to have to demand that you post longer and more frequent videos please.
Great stuff. You're going to have a blast

You need a world map on the bare wall so you can pin where you’ve been. Also a net or pinboard for memories / souvenirs.
Nice of the guys to take you climbing. What a lovely gesture. ♥️
Glad to see you taking a rod with you man... have an amazing adventure ✨️
i think your are the finest videos on RUclips , i hope you have wonderful adventures in life and peace . thank you for sharing your life !
You are living the life that I am currently preparing myself for. Great video.
Good luck my friend

This is the content we need and Alex deserves more
These travel van videos will be popular. If you post more regularly your channel will grow very fast, I believe. Good work.

Love it Alex, you've really embraced this and thrown yourself into it.
I'm really impressed and inspired.
Its great to be part of Alex's journey, his process throughout all this has inspired to also start planning to convert my current car into a camper.
The journey begins, so happy for you mate, love being a part of your adventures. Stay safe and amazing Alex!
I really like the long pull-out cabinet/bench, great multi-use and wise use of space.
Travel is the best education, keep it up Alex, the university of life!!
awesome mate , you got a spot in south Australia if ever get here
Hi Alex.
Congrats.
I slept probably 600 or more nights in my black Caddy Maxi yet.
Best decision ever!
Best car to do this.
Total freedom.
But you made the camper conversion.
Well done...if it can stay when not needed.

Great idea to meet up with locals. They can show you things you might never have seen or experienced.
Hope you enjoyed your stay here in Germany 👋 can't wait for the next episode!
Do you know what the German girl shouted as they ride past him at 13:30?

Get yourself some sheets of foam packing to stuff in the gaps of the storage units to prevent rattle and breakages.
Love how the walkers stopped to chat 👍🏻
