I head out to the forest to do some early winter camping and bushcraft in my hobbit tent and woodstove. I setup the canvas one man tent, which is an ex-military surplus tent called a polish lavvu. I collect firewood, and get the stove fired up before the cold night sets in. I cook a beef stew in a pot on the woodstove and sleep on a full belly of food and ale!

    It’s been far too long! Great to get back out there with the canvas tent & woodstove. Links to all gear in the video description. Cheers for watching! - Mike

    I've got six kids and when you get your first one, it begins; sleep deprivation, less doing things when you had no kids. Life happens and we adapt as dads and that's a good thing. Keep pushing outdoors and as the little one gets mobile, you'll be packing them into the woods with you and you will learn how that changes your experience. It will be super fun to film that. Cheers!

    3:16 when you formed a hood over your head with the ponchos and said, "woo woo"...you definitely were your dad:)
  • @coreman7774
    Your daughter is extremely lucky to have an awesome dad like you
  • @PaleGhost69
    I really needed a source of vicarious escape. Thanks, dude.
  • @BKeppol
    I have the same tent, and recently bought a tent stove. I had been looking for a cheap and easy way to protect the tent from the stovepipe, and never even thought to just source some sticks at my location. Brilliant.
  • @shanek6582
    You can go to a welding supply store and buy “fire blanket” that can go around the stove pipe

    When I was 10 years old (1990) we played with friends with these matches. They were called "hunter's matches". In chemistry class, the teacher taught us how to make them. We made fireworks and small bombs using these matches. I don't understand your surprise about them, they can continue to burn under water ))) I'm from Russia and I love your videos very much )
  • @speedyjago
    I absolutely get how your priorities just flip all the way around with being a new dad. My son is around two months younger than your Eve. This year has been challenging as I also finished my bachelor level studies this November (after three years of woking 4 days a week and going to school 1 day and an evening each week).

    I called being a new dad "a paradigm shift".
  • @riuphane
    Others have said it, but I can't believe she's almost a year old already! And your sense of time will only get worse, so be ready. My daughter was born yesterday, has been in our lives for ages, but she's only 5. The changes are daily and watching that evolution is the greatest joy. Can't wait to hear how things go over the next few years and beyond

    I love your Hobbit Tent trips. It really gets me excited to get out in the woods and do a winter camp of my own. Most people don't realize how relaxing a solo winter camp can be for a man.
  • Can’t beat the Polish Lavvu, I love mine! Combined with a stove, a perfect combo! Great video brother!
  • @IBRich62
    That is a nice little stove. Your daughter is just getting started in teaching you how fast life can change.
  • @ml4218
    Right there with you mate. My boy turned one in late November. Absolutely life changing and magical. My boy keeps finding the internet hub and turning off the WiFi while we're working 😂. They're like permanently drunk little elves.
  • @philcompton9349
    If your daughter was born on the 20th of December, then she shares the day with my daughter, but with a few years between them. My daughter is now 45 and my son is 38. Make the most of the time when they are young as time will fly by and you will wonder where it went. Great video as always. Best regards, Phil, on the south coast of England.
  • 15:30 Yup, can confirm! Hot metal looks just like cold metal, and you won't enjoy your camping trip much with a handful of blisters :)
  • @sheilablake4858
    It’s great to see you back out in the woods back to your roots. Hope you enjoyed it & that the Lovely ladies at home are keeping well (as well as dad & all) Much love 💕
  • @macjameson1930
    Kids are a handful, and your life is never the same, but then, you won't really miss life before Evie. Cheers Mike, God bless!
  • @joharmon2148
    Babies grow right before your eyes, glad you are able to be there to see it all.

    "Oh, my days!"

    What a remarkably hobbit-y thing to say for such an occasion!
    I have a couple of boxes of UCOs that I just bought, too: haven't used 'em yet. Thanks for the warning!
