I am a camping addict & do so every chance I get. Unfortunately, last year while camping & exploring I fell off a cliff & broke my back. I finally got to go camping almost a year later. It was magic. However I thought I picked up a tummy bug & went home early only to end up in hospital the next day. It wasn’t a tummy bug, I have stage 3 cancer. I just had my last chemo & as soon as I get my strength back I’m going again, just me & my doggie. Your videos are great! They have helped to keep me in a happy place during this hard patch.

From the artistic beautiful shots, to your cantor, to all the products you test, and the wonderful delicious food...there is nothing not to love! I know you put a lot of work into these videos, so thank you! From across the pond.

OMG! What a delicious bread you made. I will definitely try this. You are such an amazing chef. There is nothing you cannot make on a camp fire and you have proven that over and over. I would love you to be my cook on a camping trip. Do you have a camping style cookbook? Keep the videos coming and all those delicious meals. Thank you Andy.

Thank you for being willing to try something different and most likely uncomfortable! And the heat and bugs on top of that! You and Simon have inspired me to make bread in a Dutch oven. I did that last weekend in our backyard fire ring and it turned out fine. Only that it burned the bottom. I need a trivet... and cheese for next time. Thank you for all the work you do to bring us these videos. They are fun to watch (you) and they teach and inspire!

I bought one of those awhile back for car camping, great to sit in but also wondered what it would be like to sleep in. Thanks for clearing up that question.

Beautiful filming , the tent looked fun if your a kid , adults maybe not . I love seeing your camping trips 🙂

I love making bread and have thought extensively about making it over a fire. Wish you’d give us a cookbook! I’m pleased at how close to your technique I have gotten! 😊

Do not attempt entry after drinking!!! 😩 Husbands Comment: We here in America have taught bears for years that food hangs in bags from trees!!! 😂 You do a great fire by the way.

Been watching for a while. Your passion and jollyness is very infectious. Always a great watch. Cheers!

I can’t make 🍞 in a standard oven that looked that good, and you did it over a campfire!?! I’ve got to step my game up. 😅 Very relaxing video to watch. Learning as I go. #ThanksForSharing

One of the few channels where I enjoy EVERY upload. Thank you man

That whole filming set up of the woods and mist the morning after was just like in disaster movies when it’s the day after the big event and you’re about to see who, if anyone, survived, which considering the tent you slept in, is apt 😂

Omg, you have a gigantic red M&M to sleep in! 😂 Love how you rigged it up to the tree. I wonder how easy it would be for someone short; I'm only five feet tall so I don't see me hanging from a tree in a large M&M. Your cooking skills are awesome. Bread looks so good. Thanks for another entertaining video.

Oh lost. My grandchildren (4 of them) all have their own pods, they absolutely love them. There is no elegant way of getting out of them!!! I smiled though out your wonderful video

I love the parts where things don't go as you had hoped they would. :-) It happens to a lot of us. You make wonderful videos. My family went camping when I was little. My dad made me a pine bow bed when I was 6 (a long time ago now). It smelled so good and was bouncy so I loved it. My great grandparents camped out while crossing the US in the 1800's. When I watch you camping in snow and cold I think of them and wonder how did they ever survive? But in the end they were proud of themselves for taking on such a challenge and succeeding. My teeth are still chattering from watching you sleep on the poles in the lean-to in another video. You didn't sleep much because you were too cold and the poles were uncomfortable. I have slept on the cold ground with a root poking me all night. It can be pretty miserable, but I didn't regret it because there was the outdoors and the mountains and streams and so much beauty to enjoy in the Idaho.

Your as graceful as an elephant, but quiet adventurous! I want one of those tents & the additional fly with it

Great video Andy. Love your honest reviews and cooking.
