Fans of Clarkson's Farm will know that Kaleb Cooper loves his home in Chipping Norton. It was only a few years ago that the 26-year-old first stepped outside the Cotswolds, marvelling at the revolving doors in London and heading to meet former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak.

But now, reports suggest that Jeremy Clarkson's sidekick is looking to embark on an entirely new adventure much further afield. In an exclusive interview with The Times, Kaleb admitted that Australia was 'calling' his name and even spoke about potentially flying to Ibiza.

"I’ll make all the money now, hopefully have a farm, then chill out, go partying and be in Ibiza," the farmer said. "Though I can't think of anything worse than being in a nightclub."

Most of Kaleb's relatives were born and raised within a 'ten-mile radius' of Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire. He often jokes that his son is 'foreign' for being born in Oxford.

The Amazon Prime star's uncle and gran are buried there too, and he visits their graves three times a day.

As a result, travelling beyond this picturesque corner of the countryside often feels very out of Kaleb's comfort zone. Believe it or not, he's never been abroad, taken a plane or even a train.

Yet, earlier this year, the farmer 'faced his fear' while embarking on a UK tour to perform his show The World According To Kaleb. Although he previously said the experience was 'amazing', he did have some reservations about travelling so far away from home.

According to The Express, he wrote to his Instagram followers: "This is the furthest I’ve ever been north. Safe to say I’m hitting my fears straight on." Later, he then posted another update, revealing that he was being taken on a tour around some farms.

Kaleb added: "So I’m on a farm and I feel better. Much better. There are some trailers and lots better. I’m at home again but in Scotland." Talking with The Times about his fears, he also explained: "If the fuel pump went in my car [while travelling], who would I go to? I get nervous then."
