Max & Occy
Австралия
Добавлен 10 апр 2020
G'day & welcome!
I'm Max & the furry (*furrier) one is Occy. He's an Aussie Shepherd and my best mate. I picked up Occy when he was just 8 weeks old in a little town in southern Australia. 13 years on and we are still inseparable. We like to live alternatively and are currently building out our dream sustainable property in the Australian rainforest. After 5 years on the road, including 2 years overlanding from Canada to the base of South America (15 countries in total), we decided it's time to set up a home base. This channel is here to document and share our adventures as we build our dream property and explore Australia.
We would love for you to join us & share the highs and lows, epic landscapes, and meet the locals as we set out to explore more of this wonderful country!

I think I responded appropriately. Thanks @Jacke...

Saying goodbye to Van Life after 6 years
Bit late watching this week! Ive seen Catan a couple of times in your vids, did you know there is also a book of catan? The Settlers of Catan by Rebecca Gable. Its based on the characters in the two play version Rivals for Catan.😊 Ill add red rising to my list, just got wingspan to try and learn!!
I just Love Occy ❤️
Yep, saw the dolphin. Deb from Melbourne
Snitches are lifeless!!! Live your dream Brother 🤙🏾 I love the gate as is..❤ Uniquely designed by you! You won't see a gate like that anywhere else. Love your work & your channel 😉👌🏾
I hope Jye could hear me clapping
❤ Made a huge difference!! You did such an amazing job 😁👌🏾
Beautiful scenery !!! Good luck both !!! Always love your vids ooh glad youve still got your limbs tho xx
Rest in eternal peace Beautiful Lee 🌷💖🕊️✝️
Max, I have some serious questions about Occy's health. Can we please have aprivate conversation regarding our best friends. Love from Florida Maureen and Chance, Orlando, fl
Hi Max. Check into misophonia, it’s when the sound of chewing & sounds bother you. The actress Melissa Gilbert was just diagnosed with it. I love your vids. Your cottage looks beautiful!!
I'm reading Red Rising now. lol
Misophonia is a real thing!! @11:35
Loved the video. Thank you 😊
Get the onions out of here
Occ didn't wreck the moment....he was saying bye to your mate<3
I have never gotten into surfing but I enjoy the excitement and can certainly understand the sport of it! ✌️❤️🌞
Hey Max, I'm sure you know but just incase a little trivia . Did ya know there is Glucosamine for dogs and sometime some dog foods can cause more arthritis OR symptoms of it.❤😁 so if there are sympto.s, there are many natural ways to reverse old dog systems to puppy like systems. 😉🧡
Im thinking these names are code names for van wifes there binkie looking cool under 20 star whatever you dont need a permit seen some in Australia you could maybe use as tiny homes on property un noticed by council
More Jye soon please! Also woohooo, you're off to Van Wives!
That did not all go wrong while it sat idle hahaha
Love how easy that meal was like watching what you are doing
"Occy...more like Knocky..." 😂😂 Love it. p.s. Occy is the best. I'd totally be down for Occy to have his own channel....sorry Max I think you've got a promising commentary career in your future - loved the play by play 😀
The shot with the kangaroos on the beach!!! Ahhh lovely Australia
It's a good life. 🏄
I was thinking of the shark attack in port before you mentioned it, it's my hometown. The young fella's leg wasn't reattached though, not sure where you heard that. Sharks don't take a clean bite. But the surfer, Kai, will no doubt come back to the surf in time.
Black, nice gate.
Tell your friends you love them. Tell them often. ❤
we've followed you for years and love the videos. If you ( or Kendall & Glenn) need a driveway to park on when chasing surf on the gold coast you'd be more than welcome. We're 100 m from the beach in Palm Beach, and as retired occasional van lifers now that we've sold our surf school, we are often around , with a space you could use x
where will you be in Canada?
Loved seeing you have fun!!!
Ah Lennox ❤such a beautiful spot 🙌🏽
Max you most likely have “misophonia”…….people eating, clapping…. Etc.
5:12 - Dolphin wave jumping! Noice...
Max do you know how awesome it is to see those two kangaroos on the beach and you didn’t even acknowledge them I guess it’s as common to you but they are such a treat to see
Love every moment so positive so real ❤
Step 1. Quit van life and buy property Step 2. find house sitters Step 3. go on vacation
You could just buy yourself a proper wetsuit so you don't freeze your cobs off. 😂
I have a strange question: do you have termites in Austratial. We have them Arizona. Nasty little buggers. Just wondered if you get them in that moist climate and how you get rid of them? Thanks.
👏👏👏👏
Wholesome ❤
Sometimes, digging deep into these events can show up an adversary that you wouldn't expect in a million years. When I was about 19, I struck a deal with a motorcycle dealer to pay off a speedway bike while his nephew kept racing it until a new bike turned up from Europe. It was all going well, until a lost my job. I went straight to the dealer and told him about this and he was cool with it and simply told me to let him know when I found work. Then, out of the blue, a week later, he turned up and took the bike back! I was at a complete loss as to why this happened. Fortunately, I soon found work and paid the bike off, but I was still at a complete loss as to why this had happened. Some time later, the 'repossession' came up in a casual conversation with my brother-in-law, ( sister's husband ) and to my huge astonishment, he revealed that my sister had gone to the dealer and told him that he should take the bike back because M. ( me ) would never pay him for it! Why she did this is something I've never known, but during the covid lockdowns, I had a lot of time for thinking and I now suspect she was behind a lot of mysterious setbacks I had had over a lot of years. When you are betrayed even by family members, it makes this old saying more truthful than ever: "You can thank your parents for your relatives, but you can thank God for your friends."

Hey 👋 Max! I just have to say I have been watching you off and on for about a year and have seen you with friends on other channels….. NEVER have I watched surfing or even been interested in it. I live in Indiana USA. I’ve been to the beach a few times, so to be clear… I love your renovations and yard projects etc and never thought I’d watch this. But it popped on my feed and I thought, screw it I’m bored so why not? NEVER have I been so thoroughly entertained by the rawness and “get to the point” of this video! The beauty of the hunt for waves, the build up, the let down, the ‘f the camera we’re gonna enjoy this moment right now’ feeling, the excitement, the brotherhood, even the extreme fatigue that follows such a workout! I just wanna say Thank You Max! Thank you for taking the time on your holiday to show us what your “downtime” 😂 looks like and man what an adventure!
❤❤❤ always love to see your videos, hope you have an amazing time in Canada, my home!!
Sometimes you just need time & space with your mates 🥰
Brilliant once again! Thanks....LOVE that 2 bros say "I love You" how healthy is that? Yipeeeee
I make my husband eat in a different room than me most nights because I'm the same! Also don't enjoy going out for dinner, food eating noises are awful
Great video Guys, it shows the true meaning of good friends. Friends are the family you choose for yourself! Take both of you! ❤ to you both and of course to The Occmeister 🙂
Occy more like knocky hahahahaha I’m still laughing about it
Occy is adorable 🥰
