Two South Africans and one dusty Duster

Howzit! We're Johnny & Nades, a couple of ordinary South Africans with an extraordinary love for the outdoors and wellbeing.

We believe you don’t need a massive 4x4 budget or a luxury overlander to have the adventure of a lifetime. Our trusty Renault Duster, Buster, has taken us to many incredible places most people only dream about. We explore it all and share it on our YouTube channel, raw, real and unfiltered.

Days on the trails taught us that a lekker life isn’t only about where you go, it’s also about how you feel when you get there. So we started Howzit Restore, where we lead active recovery, mindfulness in nature and high-energy sessions that keep your body and mind ready for the next adventure.

And because we love the places we explore, we also give back. With Howzit EcoWalk, every 200,000 steps you walk plants an indigenous tree in Cape Town. Explore. Restore. Give back. That’s the lekker life.

Budget overlanding

Proof that epic trips don't need epic budgets. We share every rand spent so you can plan your own.

Hidden gems

Beyond the tourist traps. We find the spots locals love and the roads less travelled across Southern Africa and beyond.

Real camping life

Howzit Restore: Move well, Recover well, Be calm

Days on the hiking trails ask a lot of your body and your mind. Howzit Restore is wellness for people who love the outdoors. We’ll help you warm up, wind down and feel good in between, led by the Howzit team.

A quiet, empty beach at Puntjie
  1. Best after a long drive or a big day on the trails.

    Active recovery

    Gentle, purposeful movement that loosens tired legs, hips and shoulders so you wake up ready for the next day instead of stiff and sore.

    • Mobility flows
    • Stretching
    • Foam rolling
    • Easy walks
  2. Best at sunrise, by the water or around the fire

    Mindfulness in nature

    Slow down and tune in. Breath, stillness and attention practices done outside, where the landscape does half the work for you.

    • Breathwork
    • Sit spots
    • Slow walks
    • Guided stillness
  3. Best for building the strength to go further

    High-energy wellness

    Fun, sweaty sessions that build the legs, lungs and core you lean on when the trail gets steep or the pack gets heavy.

    • Functional circuits
    • Bodyweight strength
    • Trail intervals
    • Group workouts
