In this episode of the Budget Overland Podcast, Benji and I have a great conversation with Aaron Ridley.
Aaron Ridley has had a camera in his hands since he was a kid, teaching himself the craft from the bottom up over the years. He is now a photographer, filmmaker, and adventurer based in central New Mexico. He’s spent most of his life with the clear skies and purple mountains of the southwest.
Driven by the desire to travel and explore the outdoors, he pursues his overland build, a 2003 Nissan Xterra that he’s been gradually adding to for the past two years. With 20,000 miles and counting, Aaron and his wife Taylor seek to sample all that they can.
Aaron and Taylor have been married since 2018. Having started with very little, they have built a life full of fun and adventure through careful planning and the support of close friends and family.
Aaron has been documenting his adventures since 2019. Sharing his experience and knowledge both on YouTube and Instagram, he hopes to inspire other people to get out, travel, and experience life.

Hello, and welcome to the Budget Overland Podcast. Created by Jay and Benji in November 2021. Fast forward to April 2023, Jay and Benji parted ways. Not to worry Benji did a re-boot and skipped to season 3. BOP now has two show a week, Monday & Thursday! Out of respect for our previous guests and great conversations. The old episodes will remain available. The old website "budgetoverlandofficial.com" is no longer in anyway affiliated with the Budget Overland Podcast or Benji in any capacity. It is mentioned quite a few times about merch. The NEW Budget Overland website is https://www.budgetoverlandportal.com/ You can go there and find links to everything BO related!
