On the Road Tips from Four Wheeled Nomad
Why Do We Choose REDARC To Power Our RIG? Living full-time on the road for 11 years, we’ve learned that reliable power isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.

YOUTUBE S2, EPISODE 1: The Ultimate Toyota Hilux Overland Build: Rhino’s Biggest Upgrade Yet!
CLICK HERE TO WATCH SERIES 2, EPISODE 1 Six years. That’s how long Rhino—our trusty 2015 Toyota Hilux 2.5L Turbo Diesel—has been our rolling home, taking us across some of the wildest terrains on the planet.

14-30 Sept 2019 – The Faroe Islands: the nearest faraway place I’ve visited
At the tail-end of Hurricane Dorian, a fierce wind battered our ferry as we pitched and rolled through the chop, blown into a white-capped frenzy.

25 Jun-18 Jul 2019 – Norway: It’s easy to be a human doing, not just a human being
The Mega Transect proper Backing out of my mum’s driveway in Dorking was nowhere near the heart-thumping-in-my-throat, tear-jerker as it was on our motorcycles, destined for the Americas in 2014. Sliding back into the reclinable passenger seat – coffee cup holder on my left, Jase on my right – a heartfelt goodbye was exchanged before […]
21 May-14 Jun 2019 – The Mega Transect’s shakedown: Drenched in Hebridean happiness
A practice run for Cape to Cape Etive Road, Glencoe Time started to slow as we sunk into the Scottish Highlands. Easing our way back into a life on the road, Etive Road near Glencoe pinpointed a trusty camping spot in the area. Studying me for a while, as if I was an artwork with […]
26 Feb – 20 May 2019 – Making the switch from two wheels to four
After combining our love for diving and photography since childhood, during a decade of experiencing the world below the waterline, a change was eventually overdue.
