In this video, I am finally out for a camp after a long and extended break!
I head out in my canoe to a favourite spot on my local river for a solo wild camp in my half Laavu shelter. An Australian ration pack for food, some rum and a warm fire followed by a reasonably comfortable night in an 80 year old woollen sleeping bag from World War 2 - happy days!

I am sorry for the long wait for this video after my last camp at Christmas - I needed to take some time off to catch up on jobs at home (a very long list of essential repairs) and to spend some time with my family. I am very glad to be back in front of the camera now though, and I will continue to film my adventures as often as I can.

I hope you enjoy the video.

Thanks for watching.
