Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I've loved every minute of my RU-vid journey so far, and I can't wait to see what I can offer to you all in the not so distant future!
Well done mate. You got so many adventures ahead of you. Lived in Karratha in the late 90's and had so much fun doing what you are about to do. The Pilbara is an awesome place to be. Best of luck big fella, you deserve it all. 👍🍻🐟🐕
Rohan just started watching you last week resulting from a search and we are so impressed by your honest presentation with all your fails and other little problems The bug problems could be mitigated maybe with some screen walls around the awning, just a thought. Good luck with the move to the north and agreed with your thoughts re Perth and covid policy. Keep up the interesting videos.
Thanks Kevin! The camp lights I have are actually amber and or white lights, and when used on the amber setting, the bugs tend stay away, but due to filming at night, I needed the bright white lights for the footage to look good 😄 Cheers for the well wishes mate!
Welcome to the Pilbara, theres so much to see and do, so much to explore. Absolutely no regrets here on leaving Perth. Good to see you dont disclose your exact locations, leaves the places for others to fond for themselves. I have seen so many “secret” spots absolutely destroyed and lost to the masses. Tread lightly ya’ll and respect the bush. Hopefully see ya around the tracks up here Josh ✌🏻
This is by far the most entertaining vid on RU-vid. I’ve only just found you but your definitely up in my favourites. Lol. Champion. All the best and can’t wait to watch more. Cheers.
Mate what a classic youve had me laughing for the last 15 min. Well done mate did the same thing at 26 too you get used to them grasshoppers haha, weight for the green beatles, they are the worst, you will love it in the Pilbara. Memories will be made for the rest of your life enjoy it Rohan.
That’s the joy of being alone and far from civilisation Embrace the solitude! It’s great 👍 I went to the Pilbara for three months back in the 90’s stayed 7 years And still go back when ever I can
Just discovered your videos this week and absolutely loving them ! And this one is my favourite so far, keep going. Looking forward to more videos from you in the future. From a fellow WA adventure girl 😊
Good luck with the move Rohan, you'll love the Pilbara, especially in the winter. Get stuck into the Barra fishing in airport creek and the Nickol River mouth.
Great video mate, I love the life style Karratha has to offer and enjoyed working up there myself. For the bugs, orange led camp lights are the go. All the best with your move. 🤙
Cheers for that Joe! The camp lights are actually amber lights too but because of the filming I had to keep the white lights going for that crispy content, much to my demise 😂
*Gday Rohan. Stumbled across one of your vids where you were bogged badly with Lara, and really enjoyed it. This was my 4th one in a row and it cracked me up ol mate. Looking forward to following your adventures up north while I'm in Perth. Happy travels brother.*
Loved this video Rohan really goes to show how different the vibe can get after dark ahaha, guess we all get nights like that. But thanks for the hint about the Italian herbs, also if you find any more pesky spiders Bushman's works quite well at making them "disappear"
I should've just gone to sleep once the sun went down huh 😝 haha me and the spider called a truce, no need to make him disappear this time around 😅 cheers legend! 🍻
Cheers for the vids, I like the way the vids are no bullshit and straight to the point, these days the vids on tv are too, are u doin the plumbing up north, she will be hot workin , I too am a tradesman sparky good to see, more young blokes should watch this, you have a good attitude mate respect
Very kind words mate! I will be plumbing up north for at least the next couple of years I think. You're not wrong about it being hot 🥵 thanks for checkin out the content!
I'm glad I've met you before you leave I've always wanted to go fishing or something together but it ain't happening now. But I hope you have a great new chapter of your life 👍
Thanks for the nice content and sharing your time with us. I am planing to travel to Perth I am waiting for the borders to open but after I heard your words I am not sure about that anymore. I am from Germany Cologne and planning since 10 years coming to Perth but I don't know if it's the right time after listening to your words hmmm but nice video I wish you all the best in the new chapter of your life pls take care always.
Thank you Ezio! Don't be disheartened by my words about Perth, it is a great city for the most part, but I was born and raised in the country, where our values are a little different and life is a little easier. I miss all of that, which is why I am moving. If you are from a large population city already, being Cologne in Germany, then I don't think you'll have any problems with Perth, in fact I think you'll love it and you should certainly still come here one day and see for yourself 🤠
Try shoveling the rocks into a Woolworths bag and then attaching the guy ropes to the handle. You can even bury the bag for extra strength. I have the same awning and it works a treat. I actually made my own heavy duty bags for those rocky camps. Great videos by the way.
good onya on the move mate glad for you, the pilbara is the go for sure thats why we spend every winter there may catch up in april as we will be at pt sampson
Great video mate, had me laughing heaps, your a legend. You did the right thing with the pizza, there be no way i would be giving it to the ants it looked too good haha, Italian mixed herbs great tip, I'm getting some for my camp box , best of luck with the move north and cheers for keeping it real. 😀👍
Good choice! Ktown is sooo much better than Hedland! We lived in Karratha for 5 years from. 2010 til 2015 and wish we could go back. I was hitting the tracks every weekend and wish I could come up and show you all the hidden gorges and abandoned open cut mines. The place is so beautiful and a great place to put down roots. We would have stayed if house prices were not over 1mil at the time. Got a lot of friends still up their. Plus there is a HJ's now! We used to fly it up and could get $50 a burger! The adventure store is a rip off but may be better now. Get a place in Dampier if you can, alot nicer place to base yourself. There is a tree on the way out to Harding Dam that I carved my kids names into and that was like 8 years ago. People were adding names to it when I left, would be interesting to see now as it was a campsite tucked away from the main track on a secluded riverbank. Get a Rio tinto access pass and you can go explore out past Harding Dam there is a massive mountain with a track cut into it. You can see the iron ore ships from the top and the water is over 20ks away! Bloody love that place.
From one disaster to another, makes great content, most you tubers edit it out and make the trip look like a dream come true Can’t wait for the Pilbara episodes it is a misunderstood part of oz most think it’s just iron ore By the way the bugs in the Kimberly are bigger
Even with the disasters in the mix, I still feel like I'm living a dream come true when I'm filming these episodes! 😀Cheers mate, I can't wait to show my take on it! Not to keen on those Kimberly bugs by the sounds 😆
Haha, couple of beers and you won't notice the sand on that pizza , you will love Karratha mate,you will get used to the stink beetles and the moth's the size of B52 bombers 🤣
always tie down awnings. i surely have learnt my lesson, ie awning smashed drivers window. 5-sec rule still applies, eat the pizza. you need orange lights and ya need to stay away from the green brownies. haha
Unlucky there mate! This was my second time having that awning snap on video 😅 The camp lights are orange and white, but due to filming, I needed the white lights on, and just had to fend off the bugs 😝 cheers mate!
Whenever food ends up on the floor etc, etc, etc just pick it up and say…The Devil licked it and God blessed it and now l’m going to eat it. I’m a new subscriber and l’m enjoying your channel and the content. I like your way of thinking, stay single and out of debt. That is the best way to live your life and always be happy. Marriage is definitely overrated, avoid it if you can. 😊👍👍
With your lights setup, keep the insects away, I would either use and amber led light if you can add one in, or the other way is to buy red heat proof cellophane and wrap the lamps you want to use and only have those on and it worked for me and kept most of the bugs away.
Thanks mate! These lights actually are amber as well, but because I was filming I needed to stick with the white lights to not ruin the video quality 🤠
You didnt really eat the pizza off the floor did you? J/K. My first thought was that the dogs will enjoy it. Good luck with your move and i cant wait to see what happens next.
Cracker spot mate! Lost it with the cricket going a 100km/hr and knocking you off your chair haha. Try getting some yellow cellophane to put over your lights and the bugs won't be as attracted to them!
Hahaha cheers mate! These lights are actually warm/white/amber but due to filming, I had to have the white lights on, otherwise it would ruin the video quality 😭 that bug torment was for all of you watching this! 😂
@@BurrupAndAway do it for the vine!? Haha all the best with the move mate! Keen as to see the content to come! I think ybs are up that way be cool af to see you boys hook up for a collab!
I'm jealous man! Bring on the new adventures and a bloody good future. Watch ya fingers with them Mud Crabs and is there Crocs there or not that far up?
@@BurrupAndAway That's the way! I wanna go up north and try one myself, they look juicy! I just wish I could go out but I'm currently positive but also I think you almost killed me worse than Covid is when that Pizza was on the floor
@@BurrupAndAway dude crocs have been seen as far south as Exmouth. And they are semi common in port headland. Be Carefull. Also the tiger sharks are Thick, and the Tides Huge. Good luck mate
You got a talent when things go wrong. You get a higher number of views. Remember Billy Connelly the biggen. He travelled the world. He as had a good life

Well 'll B . Hey son, Loved The Dust Dirt and Dogs. Lived there in 70's- on off Arseole of the earth 'we called her. New a lot of yhem, good excellent and uglies. Man, was some beautiful people and a bloody Red dog up there them. All Red Dog wanted to do was travel, like a human bean. He got on off busses, trucks , ma ute, and anyway. Then is changed to now. Old bloke now that's about run his course in Southern Victoria, 2 year bad rabbit this time, ohh is a hard, rain. Might head up Dampier's way to to see out my few , show us how to fish one day and I'll tell ya some tails. like when I STAYED IN golden Triangle and didn't get back to North West. Mick Laverda.
Cool upfront and honest video in one of the greatest place in the Pilbara. Hope to see you round town in karratha hit me up if you want explore this great place🔥🔥🔥
Haha you need some yellow lights or something that doesn't attract those bugs hey. And those giant grass hopper in the pilbara mate just love kamikazing ya in the head hey!!!
Haha cheers mate! Nothing quite like 'em! The lights in the video are actually amber coloured too except I had to use white light only for the sake of filming to keep the video footage crystal clear 😁🍻
Hey mate I appreciate the offer but between RU-vid and the work I already have lined up, there won't be any time for anything in between but if you're up there I might see ya 'round 🤠
Lara is great but I'll be doing this one alone unfortunately, as my lifestyle is very time consuming and it makes it hard to maintain any kind of relationship to be honest 😇
Mate our hearts broke with the dropped pizza🥲 , but you saved it like a proper OG 🤟. Mate K- Town is the goods bro you won’t look back. The Dads have ya back anyway mate only a msg away 💙
