Love that Marianne has already got chicken decorations up! 🐓
Brother come kuantan I take you tour
33:09 I hope Chris is alright!
If you get blinds for the cab windows you can move stuff in there at night. We do the same with our MH. For mor wok space you can put a board up across the door. Buy your camping stuff in NZ loots more choise. RV supper centres or RV mega but there are lot. Buy your step lader also in Nz
how about a small trailer? just a 2 wheel type.
It was great to meet you both yesterday. Your organized chaos is fun to watch.
38:30 I am so, so glad that you were able to test drive everything.
Cicadas…
cant wait for you guys apart from australia, to visit new zealand. It would be one of the most beautiful countries in the world. I travelled there when i was younger. The scenery is absolutely wonderful. both islands have so much to offer. cheers cheryl from east gippsland vic. australia.
Natasha looks like my aunty. I see the same resemblance 😂. Google Tengku Nong Soraya to see Natasha’s doppelgänger😂
Fantastic video
Love it
I myself sees there's a LOT of things done wrong but i won't say much. Because i am hoping you both will find a better way to make things works. Wishing you nothing but the best Chris and Marianne. Apologize on behalf of some uncivilized malaysian.
A bit too basic for me but i hope you get your storage issues sorted and enjoy you new camper.
Hi guys, great to see you back on the road again. As you would be aware that a pop top roof means loss of storage space. You could try a cargo net in the front driving cabin above your head??? Looking forward to your next trip.
That drive looked like NZ so you are well prepared
Hi guys! Greetings all the way from Kuching Sarawak Borneo. Trevor looks handsome, I mean, awesome 😄 too bad can't see Trevor on the road here, would be cool! Anyways, you both take good care, have fun and safe trip to next destination, and more cool videos pls! 😊
Lot's of desa pandan. 😊. All the best with your new trudy
Driving a Manuel made my day. Awosome
Trevor looks quite gorgeous inside with the pop top up, I think it’s all the open windows in the canvas around the beautiful bed area. And you’ve got those side benches/cupboards for holding your morning coffee cups. With a comfortable mattress and north/south orientation it feels like it will work really well. So glad Chris didn’t seriously hurt himself with the ladder fail.
Your always so lucky to meet such lovely people ❤
Hi, Yusof from Miri, Sarawak. My 2nd year following you guys since you did the Borneo Tour. Glad to hear that Trudy is already up & running. About the hiccup, let the law deal with them. Look, Trudy went up and about at Fraser Hill gracefully; people really love Trudy. Real Malaysians will always help you in any shape (fill you up with great food) or form (kind people who save you a parking spot). Then the Electrician really helps you with the setup & goes the extra mile to fix the table on a holiday, that is when you meet a professional who knows their skills. Smooth sailing from here on end. Take care, Marianne and Chris.
17:29 Awas in English is caution 🥰
Sunday morning – cup of coffee- here we go guys ❤
Nice 😀👍♥️♥️♥️
Looking fantastic guys
