    Edward, greetings from Victoria BC, Canada. My wife and I have watched your videos for a while now. We love your eye for videography and enthusiasm for Africa and it's nature. You have a wonderful production and we never get tired of seeing them along with your obvious love and respect for the natural world. We may not ever be able to travel to Africa but rest assured if we do this will be the area (Botswana) we concentrate on. For now we satisfy our zest for overlanding with our trips to the deserts of the American mid west. Remote and raw, the only thing missing is the amazing wildlife you have there. Keep it up Edward, we anticipate every new release.

    Hey Ed, this series is KWAAI. Excuse the bad joke. but your passion for the African fauna, flora, wildlife is up front and centre! The videograph an images are excellent, I can only sit here (cold & grey Germany) and admire, by a bit envious. As a Saffa, this brings serious deja vue, reminding me of hiking, camping when I was a kid and teenager. Thanks for sharing, I appreciate that it is your " job" but I really appreciate this. Abs love you sharing your knowledge of the bush, animals & goggos? Cheers boet.

    Another gem Ed. The collaboration between you 3 guys is magic - almost synergistic. Instead of competing with each other, you complete each other. As Wallace D Wattles said in his book (early 1900's) The Science of Getting Rich, "if you do business on the creative plane rather than on the competitive plane, there's always enough money to be made."

    @nyausyaoc7207 Před 2 lety +4

    Hi Ed, unfortunate to read on IG about some of negative comments you guys receive .
    May I suggest adding some educational information about the places and culture of the different areas you visit. Some tit bits that make each location unique. I'm sure the park rangers, or folks in the local markets would love to talk about their communities. Or even find a CSR event as part of the trip. Gather some books or supplies donated by friends and family and deliver to a needy community. It's always good to involve the communities that you visit. Not trying to change your content just making a suggestion to consider. Some of your followers will pick up on it and start to give back to the communities they visit.

    • @EdwardBath
      @EdwardBath  Před 2 lety +2

      Hey! Thanks for the awesome comment and suggestion. We are looking at doing something like this in the future but unfortunately it’s very complicated and sometimes intrusive. We will try our best to do something like this 🙌

      Because we need to charge the batteries in the vehicles to run the fridges. We also have 4 different channels to run. Most of our cars are fully packed and there’s no space on the backseats
