why is there not more likes? these video uploads are almost TV level.....seriously i just subscribed and this will be my travel ideas for my end to end journey, my late brother walked to Walpole while blind, i hope to put a small engraved plaque on the hut there reminding people who he was, he was my brother and an excellent artist until he went blind and eventually passed away.
Wood Lock is from Hong Kong and now sold world wide. The glass bottle is a little heavy quite resistant to breakage when dropped, but it goes a long way. Look it up on Google. Amazon is a rip off, usually half Amazon's price in Asian super markets, around USD 7 to 8. This is must medication on these long hikes. Once you use it, you'll apply it every night before bed, this suff is so effective on sore muscels. Also good for headaches, but don't allow it near your eye's, it will sting like buggery.
As a fellow from Perth we did the whole 1003km in 4 weeks and loved every momen...
This leg had such a diverse change in looks. Even a hopping hair. Thanks for sharing guys. 2 episodes a week maybe???
Thanks Jerry! Haha we wish we could!
Great stuff I've been loving these videos. To me south of Bailingup is where the track starts to show it's true beauty. North of Bailinup it all felt too built up and populated.
Woohoo part 5! This series is great! Keep up the great work 😄
Thanks Anthony, glad you're enjoying them!
Ive been loving your journey,i definitely will doing parts of it. Its amazing that your doing it end to end.
Thanks a lot Bree! Really awesome you will walk the Bib. Once you set your mind to it and make the time for it, going E2E is very possible!
Such a cute little town. The videos are great and I look forward to each new episode
Thanks! And yes Balingup is a magic little place.
Thanks for sharing - Very nice narrative, genuine and not orchestrated. This part from Balinrup to Blackwood is both outback Australia with scorched eucalyptus trees, yet in fine shape, and green flower covered fields that could be Europe.
You have a keen eye for detail, Per. Come and join us next time, you will love it!
13:05 what are these blister band aids you are using? 😊
Make sure you say hi to the fluffy guardians of Southampton... make sure you pack a liver treat hehe
Mate you shouldn't wear joggers in wet hiking weather, wear sandles with moulded toe caps. The quickest way to damage your feet is to allow them to get wet and walk in wet socks. Yes sandles are cold but your wet soft skin will be chaffed and torn by wet socks. Dry your feet when you get back to camp and put on dry socks to warm your feet. THE BEST thing for sore leg muscels is a linament called Wood Lock. It really penetrates and gets the blood circulating. You can get it from any Asian super market. There are a couple of knocks available, but they don't compare with the real thing. It really relaxs the muscels and you'll quickly forget about any soreness. The next day all will be good again. When your hot and sweaty and feeling rather knackered, always keep a few sachets of orange flavoured rehydration salts in the your pack. Cheap, light, tasty and very effective in getting you feeling not so exhausted due to salt loss. Also good for leg muscel cramps.
I can see the problem. Your toe is showing through your scoks. So you may need to vet a new piar before you go hiking again.

This is in general a fantastic series with a wealth of information, with, days, duration and distance, but I wish they would stick to the one format / brand of camera or at least grade them better as there is a colour variation between the Sony that he uses and the Panasonic that she uses, also the zoom work is not smooth.
