Hi from the U.s. I just discovered your videos the other day, and have watched a few. You are so respectful of the areas you occupy , like sure, you're there, but when you get fire wood you take only the dead ones. You put your shelters up and enjoy the spot, but when you leave it's like the land was never disturbed, I respect you for that. Thank you
He buys a hell of a lot of gear though. New equipment every video it seems. That's not great for the environment. Just because your carbon footprint is on the other side of the world doesn't mean it's not a problem.
As a car camper with more than enough room for everything. It is really awesome to see how you guys go in with two ruck sacks and set up what looks to be a pretty big campsite. Then leave with it all on your backs again, really neat.
That was special. To sit stare and feed a fire with wood you’ve harvested, cook food you’ve earned (and tempted viewers with) best of all listen to a storm when you’re out there in it. Thank you for those of us who will only experience this through you and your fellow Bush Crafters.
Andy I enjoy your camping trips immensely. You are a genius with a camera. Love your scenes looking at the vegetation and how you allow the camera to linger a bit long, just to let the viewer soak up the beauty of nature. And your cooking always leaves me hungry. You’re definitely giving me camping fever. Please keep up the good work.
I camped for several years while being a member of the Society for Creative Anachronists. Imagine camping during a hot summer in Texas in long, heavy medieval gowns! And yes, there were many a time it rained very hard, especially during the nights. I had a rather large dome tent when they first came out here in the States. I usually didn't have the great food you cooked, but learned how to make a pretty good stir fry with a small propane stove. We usually camped 2 or 3 nights, except for once a year going to Pennsylvania for the Pensic War, which was a week at that time. Good times! I finally left because of politics and rocks under the sleeping mat. I enjoy watching you - may have to find a nice tree on my tiny ranch, try to escape the fire ants, and do a little camping - without the historical gowns and a softer bed for this aging body!😊
@spanishdncr71 The tent I had was actually very nice, plus, by the end, I was using a cot. Now I'm 68 yrs old, and my body has problems some nights with sleeping inside on a good mattress. But it is fun to fantasize going back in time with all of these conveniences.
Andy I just wanted to thank you again. Everytime I watch one of your videos you teach me something and always better than any book and I just wanted to thank you again
Just got home yesterday from an absolutely lovely two week camping trip in the woods. Already aching to be back out again but I'm glad I can still escape the city through your videos!
Hello Marc, I sure like that tarp tent you put up, there. It's good to see you camping with Andy. I love his videos and like it when he camps with a friend. I also love videos where people camp in the rain. Andy, you sure built a mini bondfire, there, in that little stove!!! Fire is so beautiful to watch, if it's contained, that is...
Hello Andy. Hoping got to see the three of you, Andy, Simon and Mark doing the collabs. It would be a dream come true. Stay safe guys. Enjoying the video now. Love from Borneo Malaysia.
Brilliant as always Andy. Ive said it before, but your videos are like therapy to me. So relaxing to watch. Love them. Im going solo wild camping tomorrow night for the first time. Ive camped a lot in the past, in the Lake District but with mates. Im lucky that my wifes Dad, still owns a few acres from the farm he was raised on. Its close by. Ill be camping on that. I wont lie, im slightly anxious about it. I have no idea why. Prolly just plain old fear of the dark. But, I love being in nature. I bought a Hilleberg Atko about 20 years ago off Ray Mears site. Its been in the loft. Time to put it to use. Please Keep the videos coming.
Wednesday is sorted for me watching Andy's video with Mark I'm having bacon sandwich and a beer thanks guys for fantastic video as always great to watch you guys filming a awesome video together cheers Andy and Mark 👍👌👏😊🙂
Loved listening to the blackbird telling everyone he was home, the two trees rubbing and then the ⛈. I was lay in bed in the dark letting my imagination run riot. Brilliant episode
*There is no any thrilling and adventurous campings more than camping in a hard rainy and thunderstorm atmosphere ! Great video Andy. It helps me to relax and sooth my mind during this horrible crisises here in Sri Lanka !!!* 🇱🇰 😑👍
Something my daddy told me years ago when I was a wee lad, when we used wood and kerosene (paraffin for you brits) exclusively to heat our home. I am 53 now and I've lived by these words every since. The moment you think you got enough wood to last, double it and then double it again. Then you're in the ballpark on how much you need.
As much as I dislike camping in the rain I do find the sound of rain on a tent incredibly relaxing and it's brilliant to fall asleep to. A bit of morning rain that clears up into sunshine is the best weather combination
Waiting for the thunderstorm was like waiting for Christmas morning! Nice that it held off until you had all your meals done Everyone loves a storm! Take care 🇨🇦⛈❤️
I am from Australia and i watch your videos before bed to help me wind down it gives me memories of the time i spent on the road travelling the length and bredth of the mainland of the country love your vedoes keep them coming
Love these videos as a fella from Canada 🇨🇦 do alot of this myself appreciate the time and effort! Put into the videos. By the way food always looks delicious! Thank you so much for the videos cheers from Canada!
Beautiful! love the sounds like jungle. Cooking over the fire learning much..Great job..Your speaking voice sweet! Everything beautiful! Thank you.. God bless you both, look forward to going camping with you next time😊.
Every camper and boy-scout in the states knows that when you hear an eerie squealing sound coming from the forest canopy it's the Mountain Tree-Chupacabra sharpening it's claws against the rough bark before starting a hunt. Fire does keep them away though. As long as it keeps burning....
Yeah , used to be a favorite of mine ,steak biscuit or sausage and Yellow mustard with a fresh coffee and a shot of caffeine stirred in. I bet that was some great sleep under the tent and tarps during the thunderstorm and rain. Safe Travels Fellas.
Looked like a great trip . Rain falling on a tarp makes the best sleep. I like the lantern hanger . I carry a cumbersome shepherds pole sometimes for the same purpose. Y’all have a great day
Well it’s 3:00 AM and what better to do than watch another video. Can’t wait to see what’s for dinner and breakfast. You got mad skills when it comes to cooking. Stay safe and blessed. So glad I found you and your awesome videos.......
Enjoyed this video. When the storm rolled in, jets went over my house and I thought we were having a thunderstorm too 🤣. It was perfect timing! Thanks for sharing your experiences in the wilderness.
New veiwer and truly respect that your trying to cook Mexican food out there. Everything looked good made me want an elote (sweet corn) video before with eggs and salsa 😋 👏🏼
When I was a kid and early teens whenever we went riverside camping on our three day holiday weekends (Memorial Day/Labor Day/Independence Day) it would pour down raining every single time. Fortunately we never had to process firewood; the property owner we rented the campsite from always provided it.
Andy, I live in Australia and enjoy camping and the outdoors. I have watched many of your videos and must say that I think this is one of your best, the meals you prepare are mouth watering, Keep those camping videos coming. Pete Drew Melbourne Australia
This is the third time (i think) I've watched this just for Kent and Marc's enjoyment of storm. Never understood why it's so many ppls fear. Maybe loud noise maybe a throwback to evolutionary biology. To me it's like crashing waves just the power of nature bang at it.
Hi Andy I can’t wait to get in here and see your video. Always a pleasure to watch you and thanks for posting. I wish I would’ve found this earlier I looked. Have a nice week
Great video Andy. Those meals you made were superb looking. And the thunder and lighting was pretty cool. Take care. Love your videos. xx from across the pond Canada 🇨🇦
