No American pronounces Himalayan like that. ; )
Hot tent diaries by John Burns ….there's a joke there somewhere 😉 ….love books i like to have a book in my hands but i do like the kindle , the ability to have a lot of books with little to no space used is well worth it . 🙂
I generally spend some time before I go away, downloading movies and series on my tablet and phone (if using my tent) in case I dont have reception 🙂 Podcasts are also fab especially when organising the van and myself for a long winter night 🙂
I thought for a moment that your backing band had kicked in while you were on the tin whistle, but actually it was an advert…
On the topic of books, I currently have Ian Mitchell's Isles of the West – which is very good so far – on the go, and Isles of the North to follow.
Och,I enjoyed your braw wee tunes Cameron 👍
Great peice Cameron, agree with your view on the 'Kindle' plus you can't get it signed by the author, could you please tell me make and model of your bike carrier? "Peace out, keep on trucking"
Just discovered your channel it's fantastic, greetings from Ireland I hope you return again 🙂
Love your rendition of Norwegian Wood Cameron. You are a talented man!
3 cloves of garlic and garlic butter AND pesto?! No kisses for you that evening big man! 😂 Great video, keep them coming.
A man of many talents eh 👏 Great opening scenery & appreciate the effort you go to.
Doesn't look much like a forest in the intro Cameron – oh yes that was before most of Scotland's trees were felled and the local crofters ethnically cleansed so as a noble laird could boast his sheep. Maybe remind your viewers noo 'n agin?
I can’t play any kind of musical instrument, but I must say the tin whistle sounds like a very good idea, I’ll give that a bit of thought. My alternative is actually to try to learn poetry off by heart. I am big into Wordsworth and Keats at the moment. Robert service in the Yukon is probably more appropriate for the environment we share. Try reading the cremation of Sam McGee, which I did learn quite some years ago. Your other four interests I share absolutely.
Getting good with the drone… Thx for posting.
Given how cheap diesel heaters are there's no reason to not camp in winter. I sleep in my van in winter and I'm toasty warm.
I suppose editing video footage could be another past time.
Another great video, thank you.
Bananagrams is a fun word game that I play in the van a lot … all year round … but great on dark winter nights. It takes up very little space and is easy to learn 😃.

Great video Cameron very informative and well delivered. You are very good at this and for a relative newbie like myself a great source of knowledge. Thank you kind regards Andy
Excellent video… what about outdoor things, too? Have you tried astronomy when out on-the-road? You'd get some great dark skies!
Nice one Cameron another fine vlog, another vanlife chanel similar to living the van life is the Canadian foresty forest. https://youtube.com/@forestyforest
Fantastic video and what talents you have. I found myself reminiscing of our trip to the French alps a few years ago, maybe I need to do a bit of planning for a return visit. Thank you.
Love campervanning all year round. Great vlog, all the best Cameron.
A man of many talents, enjoyed your company.
Great, uplifting video as ever Cameron. Thanks again!
Wonderful video, good food, good book, and entertainment as well, what more could you want, great viewing, best wishes, Colin.
Enjoyable film. Thanks. Presumably Tip 6 would be 'Make a YouTube video'?
Excellent episode, from the scenic beauty to the variety of activities for a long, winter's night. Plenty to do! 😉😁Thanks for sharing your many talents and safe travels ~ Blessings!😀
Nice one been subscribed for a while as I like your style of vlogs which we try to do our best on our channel. Video editing keeps me busy at night but just took up whittling wood as lots of online how to videos. I may try the penny whistle having just done a 9 week trip to Ireland like you
A nice way to learn language for free online is Duo lingo.
Great stuff Cameron. I'm still a tent man myself, but I probably follow as many YouTube vanlife channels as I do hiking channels. I was turning in at 6pm in my tent wearing four layers of cothing inside two sleeping bags on a recent backpacking break, and waking up at 2am in the cold darkness made me pass the remaining time by day (night?) dreaming of a vanlife future one day 🙂
