THE REALITY OF VAN LIFE - our first few weeks of travelling Australia! Come along to Far North Queensland and cruise the Cassowary Coast with us in our first ever Travel Vlog.
We know it's been a minute since we checked in, but this is the first of many (regular!!) travel vlogs - where together we'll explore Australia and document our adventures, living in our 2011 Land Rover Defender camper.
Got a question about our campervan build? Watch our FULL Defender tour video or drop a question below.
Thanks for watching!

You certainly have covered a lot of kilometres since your last video and, the Defender is still looking extraordinary with that custom paint.

This is a comment we’re pumped to see 👀 we think Riley is in good shape too for her age! Thanks a bunch 👌

Wrap, not paint.

oooiiiii, wen comes to tires you should check the day of manufacture on these tires and discarded if they are older then 5 years specially when your defender is laden a lot of weight compare to NZ here in Australia the distances are way larger and the temperatures are very epic what affect everything in a very different way, is ok to feel home sick you are just 2 young ppl who just left home and became immigrants in a new country what is very brave, I did move to Australia wen i was very young too, I can relate of how hard this can be

@rileytheroamer 2 дня назад

Big agree here 👌 the heat is very different in comparison to back in NZ. The things you only truly grasp when you’re here I guess! It is a big step going to a new country no matter where you came from, so thank you for the love - good to hear someone else gets it! 🥰

@@rileytheroamer yeah the heat is insane, I did spend a year travelling across the WA and I tell ya the summers up north west is incredible insane you need to keep hydrated, and around the Arnthem land in the NT the humidity and rain storms are very epic, and beautiful, do you know in the north of the NT is one of the places where you can see some of the most mesmerising thundering & lighting in the whole world, is amazingly insane you have to check it out for sure You're very welcome, we are here to support one and other right, keep going with the channel please

@@janolopez7436 wow sounds like you have had some amazing adventures - despite Mother Nature doing her thing. ☔️⛱️ Aus truly is so beautiful and we can’t wait to head to those places you mentioned - eventually! But thanks so much for sharing the love, great to have you along - we will be keeping up with our channel!

Cute Max !!! Looks like you made some awesome memories.. but crack up to me you spent so much money on that thing and no air bags and no ac..

@rileytheroamer 2 дня назад

But it made great RU-vid content though 🤷🏼‍♂️ haha we will be getting the aircon fixed (eventually)

@Wickham09 2 дня назад

@@rileytheroamer I had no AC in my defender for years in the NT, was mostly fine. Beaded seat covers from Supercheap autocan provide some relief for cheap.

@nnoddy8161 День назад

Don't need aircon in a Defender.

@rileytheroamer День назад

@@Wickham09 we will look into this 🫡 thanks for the tip.

In a 60 litre tank of diesel is just over 3 months of my total electrical energy with the air con going 24-7 in QLd. Do you think van life will stop being attractive because of the fossil fuels you use? A tank a week for a year is about 17 years of my electrical energy. This lifestyle can't continue not if we stop oil, do you have plans to stop?

But do you own a car, do you ever fly on a plane or use gas for any form of cooking or heating? There is so much more than your energy costs in regards to your carbon footprint so please don't be to quick to judge.

@@broccattley8919 What a stupid reply, the point is you have to eat, do people have to fly or drive where they don't have to or is it choice?

@antonyjh1234 9 часов назад

@@broccattley8919 What an absolutely ridiculous reply, the point is people have to eat, flying or driving not so much. I am well aware of my carbon budget and it's not about quick to judge, the message of having to drive less has been around 30 years.
