I was so ready for a new off-grid camping adventure with my dog and rooftop tent… but my plans ended before they even began. My camping stove was stolen, my portable power station failed, and without that essential gear, camping was off the cards. Now I’m figuring out how to get my off-grid plans back on track — from power banks and in-car inverters to trying out different rooftop tents. The camping adventures are still calling… and I’m determined to answer.
This video also gave me the chance to reflect on something far more positive — the incredible support from this community. My last video sparked some of my favourite comments yet, and I was reminded how lucky I am to have such a strong, kind group of subscribers who not only connect with my journey but also have my back. Thank you for being here. The camping adventures are still calling… and I’m determined to answer.
