Beaches & Broken Brakes - Overlanding Corsica in our Land Rover Defender
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 04. 2023
- In September 2022, we drove to Corsica and spent a week exploring this amazing island for the first time with our two dogs and our Land Rover Defender 4x4 camper. The Land Rover was great for accessing some of the more remote beaches tucked away at the end of 4x4 tracks, but it wasn't all smooth sailing as we had some mechanical issues mid-way through the trip...classic! 🛠

Thank you so much for being here, love you all so much ❤️
Magic pace and rhythm to this video. I get lost in my imagination seeing trips like this. I sit down because I’m tired, but watching this I get up because there’s so much to see.
Love this guys! Can’t wait for some more warm trips!
Great video! The quality and the story are truely amazing!! I loved every second of it, thanks for this slow sunday morning start 😍🫶🏼
Greetings from germany! Keep up the youtube, we love it!! 🎉
Awesome video guys! So lovely to see the dogs enjoying the trip ❤
We have just returned from Corsica and we also had a fantastic time. 👍👍
So nice to see you four again! Love the lights on your rig and the sunrises
Nice nice nice. Great scenery and cool routes. I don't know which of you is cooler, both of you or your two dogs. Ok Ok, the coolest is of course the Landy. 🤣😂 bg Alfred
Well done you four! Another truly beautifully shot film 😍👏👏👏
But my favourite part was,
"Um... when you have finished dancing like a robot, I have a hot mug of tea for you..." 😂😂😂
nice video! love your dogs, they look very happy, we have a cocker too, maybe we will see you on the road one day, happy travels
Thank you so much!! Yes I’m sure the boys would love that too 🥰🤞
Fantastic video guys! Some lovely shots and a real adventure. Land rovers always like to be centre of attention 😂. Corsica looks beautiful 👍
Very entertaining, looking forward to the next one 👍
Lovely video. Has inspired my family to get a Landy too. Thank you for sharing with us. We want more videos please!
Love from south korea
Magnifique vidéo à bientôt au garage FAN DE LAND pour un thé ou un café ronald et sebastienne. 😊
Merci beaucoup pour toute l'aide, la prochaine fois que nous serons en Corse, nous viendrons vous dire bonjour! ☺️🙌
Excellent as always guys... Thank u👌👍🏻
Really enjoyed that. Thank You
Cool views, nice trip. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Love this guys!
Always great videos
That last brakepad looked awful. The previous ones looked lethal :D
Plaquettes de frein😀 congratulation for your French you speak perfectly 👍🏻
Que ganas tenía 🎉🎉🎉
Very nice video of this beautiful island ! We are also looking forward to go there in some weeks again. And great that it worked out well with your brakes - I assume it was Fan de Land - great Garage that helped us also out 2 years ago 😊. Many thanks for the holiday feeling 👍🏼😁🖖🏼!
Love watching your videos, great cinematic shots and storytelling, thanks for keeping uploading. Love the string lights you have as well, are they from Flextail??
Thank you so much!!🥰 they are from Amazon, but we’ve had a few break on us so definitely looking for a more sturdy option! Are Flextail good?
@Somewhere Wilder Hi wae got a set of flextail ones recently so we have only used them on a 3 day camp so far but they are a really chilled ambient light colour. Its like they have made every 5th or 6th light a slightly different light temperature, so they look more natural 👍 ill give them a bit longer use before i recommend them.
Gorgeous scenery! What brand is that little espresso device you have? Looks like it makes great coffee.
Thanks so much for watching! The coffee maker is the Wacaco Nanopresso - it’s tasty coffee but we’d love it if it made bigger shots ☕️ 😂
Hi. Just wondering why you don’t turn the tent around to open at the rear. That’s how I’ve always had mine on my Disco 2. I have a drop down table on the back door and that is my kitchen area covered by the tent floor. You should also think about buying the ladder extension as well. Thanks for your travel blog. Cheers 👍🏻🙏🦘
Thanks for watching Grahame! We mounted the tent to open the side so the gullwing could be covered and we used that surface more often when cooking. Also, the FrontRunner tent needs slight modification to the mounting points if you want it opening to the back on a Defender, it's not a major change, just cutting down the aluminium channels, so we decided to keep it standard 😉
Great video. I’d never thought of Corsica as a possible destination, I’ll add it to my wish list now. How did you find the off road tracks? BTW checking the brakes before you set off on a trip is a good idea.
Thanks Steve! The 4x4 tracks we drove are all on WikiLoc which makes it easy to find your way around 😊 And yep, checking the pads is now on the pre-trip list!
Your dogs are soooo well behaved!! Wish out Cocker was like they are! How old are they out of interest? Great videos by the way! Keep them up, very keen subscriber here ❤
I have a few questions, what kind of camera do you film with? everything you go for a walk do you use a smartwatch?
And you make beautiful videos please keep up the good work. and congratulations on your house.
We film everything on a Sony A7IV, it’s nice and small so perfect when we don’t have much storage space in the car, and we recently got Garmin watches for hiking 🏔 Thanks for watching!
That looks mega fun, wanting too get there for a while.
Was it ok finding spots too pull up and camp, did you have many issues with local stuff been going off road a bit.
Nice going thanks Sam
We are about to set of for Corsica and Sardinia in our Series 3. The Garage that you bought the brake pads from looked pretty cool and a useful to know about. Can you remember the name and whereabouts. Cheers John @two_lives_living_it
Of course, the garage was called Fan De Land and it's in Ajaccio 🙌 Have a great trip!
I love this, and my girlfriend and I also have 2 dogs. I was wondering what you guys do during the hot summer days when both of you need to step away from the car. Or does one of you just always stay with the dogs. Is there a separate A/C unit inside the car and you just keep it running?
Thanks so much! We’ll always try to take the dogs with us, but if not then one of us is always in the car with the dogs, or we’ll try to find a local park to walk in whilst the other does shopping 🐶 😊
Wow, you really got your money's worth out of those brake pads.
what is that coffee squeezer thing and 6:36?
it's a Wacaco and the coffee is surprisingly good actually! We've found it's best when you use the Nespresso attachmemt they sell with because if you have to grind and measure your own it's not as strong! We recently upgraded to a Bellman though which is bigger but so good, almost too strong 😅
@@SomewhereWilder Bellman looks to be espresso only.
how does this guy get away with cheating on her whilst monitizing of both girls🤣
what?
@@exploremore2871 not sure what video they watched 😅😂
@@SomewhereWilder He meant to say he loved the video
@@exploremore2871 hahahah 😆🫶
