Dan and Marlene are the adventurous parents of a full-time traveling family of five, living, working, and exploring the world in their home-on-wheels. They've driven to 53 countries across 5 continents and were named Overlanders of the Year by Expedition Portal in 2023.They share their travels on Instagram and YouTube under the handle Mali Mish—Croatian for “Little Mouse,” a name bestowed on Marlene by her grandmother. Widely known as the “Mali Mish Family,” they've been living on the road since 2008. When they started this adventure, there were no shortcuts: no YouTube tutorials, no e-books, just a handful of other family blogs. They jumped into the fray and started sharing their story.Their journey has taken them through a series of rigs: a teardrop trailer, an Airstream, a Ford F250 with a Grandby Four Wheel Pop-up Camper, a 4x4 Sprinter Van, and their current home—the ultimate Overlanding rig, a Ford F-350 4WD with a Bowen Customs Flatbed paired with a Four Wheel Pop Up Grandby Flatbed Camper.Follow their travels:Website: www.malimish.comYouTube:    / @malimish  Instagram:   / mali.mish  Expedition Portal: https://expeditionportal.com/2023-ove...Mentioned in this episode:Slow Baja Winter Expeditionhttps://www.slowbaja.com/adventures/2...Benchmark Maps Baja Road and Recreation Atlashttps://www.slowbaja.com/shop/p/7avpv...Support the Slow Baja Podcasthttps://www.slowbaja.com/supportBuy Baja Bound Insurancehttps://www.bajabound.com/quote/?r=fl...

If you're getting into overlanding—or you've been doing it for a while and don't want to waste money—this video is for you.In this episode, I'm breaking down the overlanding mods that give you the most bang for your buck. These are upgrades I've actually used, tested, and used out on real trips—not just stuff that looks cool on Instagram. Some mods are absolutely worth the money, while others can wait (or be skipped entirely).I talk through what I'd prioritize if I were starting over today, where you'll get the biggest improvement in comfort, capability, and reliability, and how to build a setup that lets you travel more instead of constantly chasing the next expensive upgrade.Whether you're building a budget overland rig, slowly upgrading over time, or just trying to figure out what really matters, this conversation should help you make smarter decisions with your money.

In this episode, Joel Crawford and Cody Frost, two experienced overlanders, share a chilling overnight encounter deep in Washington State's Gifford Pinchot National Forest, near Ape Canyon, Muddy River, and the infamous Dark Divide. What began as a routine camping trip quickly turned unsettling when unexplained radio-like static, heavy footsteps, and coordinated movement around their camp broke the silence of the forest.As the night progressed, something physically shook a detached overland trailer, despite no visible animals or people nearby. Later, strange call-and-response vocalizations echoed through the ravine, moving rapidly through dense old-growth forest. Multiple members of the group—including children—heard the activity, confirming this was not an isolated experience.This episode explores possible Sasquatch activity, unexplained phenomena reported by overlanders, and why the Gifford Pinchot National Forest continues to be one of the most mysterious and active areas for unexplained encounters in North America.ResourcesJeremiah's hat worn in this episode provided by Squatch'n game and available at https://playitforwardstudios.com/Joel and Cody on Salish Sasquatch Channel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Y07p13RgOU&t=1634s

Jimmy recounts a terrifying nighttime campsite encounter near Mount Baker and a shocking broad-daylight Bigfoot sighting standing beside I-90 near the Snoqualmie River outside North Bend, Washington—a location linked to multiple independent sightings.

After every overlanding trip, I follow a simple but super effective routine to make sure my rig and gear are ready for the next adventure. In this video, I'm walking you through my exact post-trip maintenance process—what I check, what I clean, what I repair, and how I keep everything organized so I'm never scrambling the night before a trip.I'll cover the key things I inspect on my vehicle (tires, suspension, fluids, etc.), plus the often-overlooked gear checks that can save you a ton of hassle—like recharging batteries, drying tents and sleeping systems, cleaning kitchen setups, and making sure your fridge and storage bins are good to go.This routine has helped me prevent breakdowns, catch small issues before they become expensive problems, and streamline my packing so every trip starts off smoother.

If you've ever wondered what an Overland Expo is all about—or if you're planning to attend your first one—this episode is for you. I break down exactly what happens at these events, why they're so popular, and how you can get the most out of the experience. From classes and vendors to rigs and community, I'll share my tips for navigating the expo without getting overwhelmed.But here's the key: while expos are packed with gear, ideas, and inspiration, they're not the same thing as actual overlanding. In this episode, I talk about the big differences between walking the rows of rooftop tents and actually putting your rig down a dirt road.Whether you're new to overlanding or a seasoned explorer curious about the expo scene, this podcast/video will help you know what to expect, how to prepare, and how to enjoy every minute.A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices):  https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

When most people think about overlanding, they think about the gear — the rooftop tents, the recovery boards, the fridges, and the rigs. But in this video, I want to talk about something even more important than the latest equipment: your health.I've realized that no matter how dialed in my setup is, none of it matters if I'm not healthy enough to actually get out there and enjoy the trails, campfires, and long days behind the wheel. I'll share some personal thoughts on why taking care of your body and mind is the real foundation for more adventures, more miles, and more memories.So if you're like me and love overlanding, but also want to keep doing it for years to come, this video might give you the perspective you didn't know you needed.Don't forget to add this podcast to your favorites or leave a 5 star review if you enjoy content!A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices):  https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

When I hit the trails, I never imagined I'd be facing something far scarier than rough terrain or bad weather. Out of nowhere, a sudden heart blockage stopped me in my tracks and led to open heart surgery. One day I was planning my next overlanding trip… the next, I was fighting just to have the chance to go on another one.In this video, I open up about the reality of what happened, how quickly life can change, and how close I came to losing the adventures I love—and nearly my life. This isn't just a story about overlanding; it's a warning about paying attention to your health, even when you don't think anything can happen to you.If you've ever taken your health for granted or ignored pain or symptoms, I hope my story makes you pause, reflect, and take care of yourself—because you never know when life might throw you a detour you never expected.A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices):  https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.
