TWO YEARS ON THE ROAD 1/3 (NORTH AMERICA)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 мар 2024
- Two years of anecdotes and images narrating the best, the worst, the curious, the fantastic, the learnings, the headaches and the beauty of every single moments of two years on the road.
In this first part we talk about the preparation of the journey and the vehicle, the testings in Scandinavia, and the journey in North America. Canada, the USA and Mexico, a diversity of landscapes like no other.
This serie will also bring us to Central America (part two), and to South America (part three). It is coming up next week! and the following one!
If you enjoy the journey you can relieve it in even more details directly on the channel. 100 episodes published weekly over those two years to live the journey as if you were there.
We thank SunWare Solar Panels for bringing us energy wherever we go during this adventure: en.sunware.solar/home/index
Until next week, take care!
Nick & Mathilde

Well done!
thanks George
Amazing video! It's' been great following your adventure and looking forward to seeing your future trips.
thank you ! you ve been supporting us every week !!!
I just now finished the video I am always in favor of your footage, I love the recap. Very good idea while you wait to go to Australia ❤
right?! makes for a good debrief before getting into the next continent
Beautiful intro. Salmon glacier is in Canada. One of my favourite places in the entire world.
Yes my apologies … I thought the border was just a bit further but indeed it is true …
@@NextMeridianExpeditionHey yes no worries. It is very confusing honestly. You cross the border into US and then back into Canada with no border security just a sign post haha.
Bravo to Mathilde for pulling the best of the best out of the archives. Roan especially loved the wildlife shots in Canada 🐻 ! So fun to relive the small parts of the trip we joined you for. Miss you guys!!
Merci, thank you Olivia !!!! you know, I know you know, you know I know you know hahahahaha so it is even more motivating to read you. miss you too!
Hi guys, nice to see you again, I remember you from Eva's videos (who I've been following for a few years now) good to see your videos too, great airiels.
Hey! Welcome! Thank you for passing by :)
This is such a fabulous compilation of your journey! Great editing! Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this with us NextMeridian!
Thank you so much to you for sticking with us and taking the time to share such kind words 😍😍😍
I may have said this before: I don't know if UNESCO has any kind of film repository or artists' program, but this series belongs there. It is a tremendous gift to show the world to the world.
We would love to work with them!!!!
Just discovered your RUclips channel, I throughly enjoyed your videos, being retired and living with a limited income I’m always looking for ways to explore new places through the eyes of others adventures. I’m unable to contribute due to a limited income, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your videos.
You watching is the best support you could give us!!!! Thank you so much for your kind words and welcome on the channel!!!
Super rétrospective! Ça nous amène un peu de soleil en Belgique où il pleut actuellement 😊
merci Isabelle! tu sais que j'ai posté la vidéo depuis la Belgique meme?! amusante coincidence
Merci pour cette retrospective. A nous qui suivons vos aventures depuis (presque) le debut. DE belles emotions, de belles lecons de vie et de confiance. ❤
Idem 🎉
Purée! Merci beaucoup de rester avec nous tout ce temps! Ça nous touche et nous motive beaucoup on espère pouvoir continuer à vous apporter du contenu intéressant!
Merci beaucoup! J ai répondu à yunjana mais du coup de la même manière merci de prendre le temps de regarder et commenter
Thanks!
wow thank you so much for the donation. we will put it to good use!!!
1st time on your channel, AMAZING, loved this format, and loved your vibe. cheers from New England
thank you so much!!! all th best !!
I haven't been caught up on all your videos, but this was such a good watch. Great editing and comentary really glad i watched it :D
Glad you enjoyed! It s normal not to have seen everything… more than 100 videos! But thank you for taking the time to watch this one and comment 🫶
Such amazing trip! NAT Geo images! Beautiful! 💖💖
Thanks so much! Hahahaha maybe one day we will be that good
@@NextMeridianExpedition💖💖
What an amazing journey you've been on. Such an excellent summary of your trip. Well done. Superb photography and the overall production quality is top-class! I'm so glad I've found your RUclips channel. Thank you for sharing your life-changing experiences.
Thank you Russel for taking the time to write us those kind words. We really appreciate it. And are thrilled you appreciate the channel ❤️
We started following your adventures when Eva introduced you. Really love how you show us parts of our world we will never see with our own eyes and that you are both really nice people!
Thank you for being a great support ! We hope we can continue travelling together for a while !
Just found your channel. My wife and I adventure travel throughout the US pulling our small teardrop. Your Defender is my dream vehicle, I'm so jealous as they are very expensive here in the US. You have a new subscriber. All the best.
Wow thank you so much for those kind words! And welcome on the channel! Yes defender are not as pricey in Europe… we were astounded by the prices in the UsA.
We have published the part 2 of our journey recap series on Central America in case you didn’t see it yet
Danke!
thank you very much Bernhard!!!! we will make good use of this, it is super kind of you
Bravo Nick and Matilde, off to a great start with your movie. Merci et Bon Chance.
Merci! Merci beaucoup’
You two are master travelers and master photographers. Quite the story to share! Such an amazing planet and you have done an incredible job of capturing it.
Thank you very much! We are very grateful for your kind support on the videos 💪💪💪 it is so motivating
What a tremendous adventure! Seeing the beautiful landscapes makes me mock the elite who want us to believe the planet is dying. Doesn't look like it! The plants uptake CO2 and make oxygen.
Great film and fascinating recap to see the journey so far as a whole. I wonder how it felt to look back on - all that in just 2 years. Amazing. I hadn't realised quite how much you like to pose precariously at the top of very high, steep and precarious-looking cliffs. You get some dramatic drone shots but don't overdo it, we want you to get back home in one piece.
That is a good point. Have you noticed how there are two types of people? The kind attracted by heights and those scared by it? Nick and I definitely and dangerously belong to the first kind for sure ….
Great video 👌👌👌
Thank you 👍
Looking forward to seeing you in Australia,especially Tasmania.❤️❤️❤️
that Is going to be so special! we are really looking forward
Great video!
Thank you so much James ! Looking forward the begining of your adventure !
i could watch this forever!
whooohooo let s keep the travel going
Subscribed and liked. I was following some of your trips along the Pan America. This footage is brilliantly composed together. The drone images, photos, the music and narrative put together beautifully capturing the journey. Happy for you guys you made the trip. I was planning for the Silk Road with my Landcruiser but may do the Pan America first. Thanks for the inspiration.
those are two brilliant projects!!!! we can only speak for the Panam! you won't regret it! but I am sure it d be the same for the Silk Road
@@NextMeridianExpedition Indeed true. It does not matter more important I do a trip does not matter which one will come first. Will check out your Defender video also. All the best on the Aussie Tour. If you ever come to Munich pls look me up.
Magnifique rétrospective de vos aventures. Un régal de vous suivre.
Michel

Awesome! Thank you!! The journey continues !!!
How amazing your journey has been.
🍿🎉🎥 - Glad to see you back. I was holding on to my popcorn wondering when id get to pop open another bag 😂. Hope you get your vibe back and back out on the road. While the grass seems greener on the other side, it often is just a mirage...
For some strange reasons, I feel Tom's peaceful and calming vibe seems to have brought a particular level of peace and serenity...good soul
amazing soul this guy!
thank you for your support every week! long life to popcorns!
Thank you for taking me on this wonderful adventure. I have not missed an episode. Your videoing is so professonal and I cherish the post cards.
Wow, thank you! it is so heartwarming to read that. thanks for keeping up with the expedition, we hope you enjoy what is coming up next!
This is how inspiration looks like. I hope you continue even when you finish your poject!
You can see the part 2 and 3 of this journey!!! it is the rest of the journey through the americas! We are now in Australia for the next part of the trip
Awesome video as always Nick and Matilda. I've been following y'all's journey since British Columbia and it's been a epic adventure ever since can't wait until y'all landed in Australia. Thanks for letting us ride along with y'all on y'all's journey around the world.
Hey Chris! Thanks for traveling along! Reading you every week is a pleasure and we don’t take it for granted! We hope you will keep enjoying the journey
It was the most beautiful and scenic rich travelogue I have ever seen....looking forward for the next episode ......
Thank you! There is two episodes already published after this one
So beautiful! Thank you very much!
Glad you like it! 🙏🏻 thank you for taking the time to comment!
Thank you for allowing me join you in your awesome adventures. I must tell you that I would impatiently wait for your weekly updates. I found you through Eva’s channel and couldn’t be more pleased! I haven’t been to France, but I have spent time in Italy and couldn’t think of anything bad to say. It pains me then to hear y’all’s unfortunate comment on the United States. We do have unparalleled scenery and since we’re a large country we have a diverse community. I’d like to apologize for any bad experiences you might’ve encountered while in this Grand country. I wish y’all well and safe travels.
it is true there is unparalleled landscapes! we had a great time in the usa! and would love to come back some day
Hey guys!
Thank you so much for this look back, at the trip so far.
Really looking forward to more.
Thank you Michael! Thank you for being always here to support 🫶

Awesome video. What an adventure. Such a privilege to get to see all the beauty the world has to offer. 😄
Couldn't agree more! Thank you so much

Love, Love this video! You guys are the best! Looking forward to your Australian adventures!❤
Us too! It s going to be great we think!
Nice work guys.🤠
thank you Sharon!!!
From what little you did see in the United States you did better than most on covering and showing those small areas. You also have some of the most beautiful photography. You're really great at capturing the beauty of an area.
Thank you Viking Jack! We re happy you enjoyed this despite the fact we could not go everywhere! Thank you for taking the time to share your impressions !
👍What a treat to rewatch your adventures through these 4 regions. 👌Your videography/drone shots are spot-on. The scenery views incredible. The colors vibrant. Love seeing the vastness of the Brooks Range. Utah is beautiful. Excellent drone views of the whales in Baja. I am sure I will be back to watch this vid. many times. Thank you for sharing. Take care.👍☮n ca usa🧘♀Nice seeing Tom and Eva.
Many thanks Carla! it is so nice reading you! so motivating so heart warming!!!

Well done guys! Great video as always 🎉
Thanks so much! ❤️
Perfect format!!!! We love it!
Yess! Format is validated ! Thanks for taking the time to tell us this 🙏🏻
OMG..That opening shot put chills down my back..Breathtaking. Your videos have gotten better and better over the years..Well done..and Mathilde with the "Lower Voice"?? At first I said.."WHO IS THAT???" LOL
Whioohoooo Don … thank you ! You re the only one who noticed (actually commented about it) about the voice hahaha. I literally texted Nick when I sent him the video… saying « let me know what you think… I think I ve nailed the voice over (accent and tone ) » hahaha I was so proud of it but only people like you would notice 😂😂😂
@@NextMeridianExpedition YES..."People Like YOU!" I guess that's me..Keep in mind..at one point in my life, I was a Radio DJ..While no expert..I notice tone differences..AGAIN..Mathilde..YOU nailed that video..
❤❤❤excellent recap of all your adventures so far. Thank you. Can’t wait for your down under series!
We re happy you liked it! We hope you ll enjoy part 2 and three as much as:)
Love this format. I can remember a lot of those adventures even back in 2022. Great job! 👏
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for keeping up with the journey all that time!!!
wow, very nicely put together, now I see, many things I missed during your travel. waiting for the next....
Thank you! Yes we thought it was nice to do the recap cause there s about 100 episodes covering the past two years but people joined up at different time and did not necessarily go back in time so now it is covering the entire story !
Loved the format! Wonderful to hear what you had to learn, with all the troubles and wonders along the way! Super inspiring! 👏👏👏 And the editing 😃👌
Glad you enjoyed it! thank you for watching!!!
WOW! The drone really brings an amazing perspective to your videos. I guess the more you use it the better you get. I was really enjoying the birds eye view of all of the amazing and awesome landscapes you both have moved through. I know it is hard to work on that stuff in the middle of your trip but you really did a great job on this vlog. Thank You!!
I can't believe how much time has gone by. Some of the scenery almost made me cry it was so beautiful. Thinking of you and sending lots of Love.
Thanks so much U! We did progress a bit with the drone we re really happy
What a life! I wish you the best!
thank you June!

Thank you! There is the debrief of central and South America if you liked this one
I like this kind of video that can create emotions and content for you guys while the car travel to Australia. I'm impatient for part 2 and 3.
Thank you! Yes we felt like there was a need of some sort of recap. Also just for us very honestly. 😂 of course it is very much a summary and so much is missing but it was an interesting exercise
Yay! You’re back! Welcome.
