Cheers Dan! He is a handsome boy isn’t he 😅

In terms of park ups, there’s far too many to recommend. Download the app park 4 night and get searching around the location you’d like to stay, you’ll find endless options! Again with places to see, most of the eastern side along the border is incredible. Loudenvielle was a standout place, just before you cross into Spain within the Pyrenees :)

Yea it definitely is cheaper, and when we come back we will be using it more for sure. Completely agree that going into the big supermarkets is fun though, all part of the experience :)

There's so much to love about France isn't there, we can't wait to come back! Dune Du Pilat by any chance? We visited on our way back up, it's a wicked place! There's always going to be difficult roads, but on the whole they're still better than in the UK. Glad you're having a good trip, enjoy the rest of it :)

Yea it would have been handy, we'll know for next time though :) We could be better in terms of eating out, but like you say, that's all part of it!

Glad you enjoyed it, we try and be as straight to the point as we can be :)

We do have a toilet and shower! Glad someone likes the sunglasses haha ;)

It’s super important isn’t it, the better you stick to it, the more adventures you can have 😍😍

Hey Gary! We will definitely get a UK Costs video together, it might not be before you do the UK road trip though I'm afraid! Any plans on where you're heading yet?

Ahh thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it :)

We were sooooo close to trying them! Super glad we didn't now haha, thanks for the heads up!

That’s amazing that you’re finding them useful :) you say that… We found a bottle of port for under 2 euros in one shop 😜 that’s great news, sounds like you’ll be fine then! Where are you planning to visit?!

@Thenomadpurr 2 euros! Wow, I think we'll be okay then. I haven't planned any where yet but we hired a campervan in Portugal before we purchased our Sprinter. We wanted a positive van experience somewhere it didn't rain all the time! Can't wait to go back.

Yep, you'll be ok haha! Sometimes that's the best way. Something we found on our trip is that even with the best plan, everything can change super quickly which then throws out the rest of the plan! We were due to head down the east coast of Spain, into Valencia then further south. But a week before we got there the floods hit, which meant the last 5 or 6 weeks completely changed! Are you due back soon? We can't wait either!!

This sounds incredible, we’ll have to when we come back to Portugal!

When you put it weekly, it doesn’t sound that bad at all with all the driving we have done! Glad you’ve been enjoying the videos, hopefully you enjoy what’s to come! Happy New Year!

This is definitely something we will make in spring! We have another trip very soon 😜 so we’ll make it after that :)

Thank you for the in depth response! I think we have learnt that we need to maximise Lidl and Aldi next time we head back, that'll free up some money to enjoy the boulangeries! Yep, very true with the aires. Most of the time we don't need anything fancy, and generally you can find an aire which has waste facilities and not have to pay. If we want a nice shower in a brick building etc, then that's when the paid campsites come in handy. Completely agree with the French speaking, it's on us not them. Just like if they came over here, not many brits speak that much French! Very interesting with the central route, will bear that in mind for future trips, thanks!

You’re correct, we have trimmed out a few bits to keep it flowing better. But we thought it would be nice to have everything in one place, so people can dip in and out and not lose where they’ve got to :)

Hey Monty! We hope you enjoy it 😍 Thank you, Merry Christmas 🎅🤶😸

Happy Christmas!!! Hope you have a great day!!

Thank you Martyn, we hope you have a great day! Ah appreciate the kind words. Our next trip is a biggun ;) that’s all we’ll say for now… 😅

It’s an incredible place, well worth a visit that’s for sure! Haha.. Can’t have enough of them ;) thank you, hope you have a lovely Christmas!

It was a good waffle haha, we should have tried a few other toppings whilst we were there I reckon! Thank you, hope you have a great one!

Cheers Jack! Lovely cameo by yourself, but it was also your fault I had to drive about 15 hours for a waffle 😅 glad you’ve enjoyed it, we’re so sad it’s come to an end… some mega plans going forwards though 🙊 Ghent is awesome!! Would happily visit again :) have a great Christmas!!

😂😂😂 harsh, but we’re glad you enjoyed it 😅 Merry Christmas!

Hahaha they were both so good!!! The dinner wasn’t bad either ;) hope you guys have a great Christmas 🎄🎄🎅🤶

@@Thenomadpurr we drove to cologne, Baden Baden, Chamonix and Jung Frau in Switzerland for Xmas last year, Christmas in a van is awesome!

Oh that sounds amazing!! We’re thinking of going for 3 months again over next winter, but possibly a month later so we can be in the south of Spain for Christmas! But we’ll see, a lot can happen in that time :)

@@Thenomadpurr do it! Some of the Santander ferries weren't that expensive last xmas

They were sooooo good 🤤 can we go back? 😍😍

Could have dropped potatoes in with the meat- roasters are a must Tip too- always put a lid on saucepans - helps a prevent condensation

Happy Christmas

We did miss them, but mash with gravy wasn't a bad alternative 🙊 our air fryer is pretty small, with 10 pigs in blankets and the beef, we didn't have much room left! This is something we might have to upgrade :)

Thank you Andrew, we hope you have a great time! Are you lucky enough to have some time off over the next few days? :)

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it :) appreciate the kind words ✌️

Ahh it’s such a mega city! We’re not hugely city people, but it had a really nice feel and charm to it… plus there’s flat whites available 😂😂 You’re right though, having somewhere that felt safe for us to leave Taco for a few hours meant everything. Gadgets are replaceable, our boy isn’t!

Glad you like enjoyed it! Port was lovely :)

It was lovely! Such a vibrant city, we would definitely recommend it. You guys would have loved those cocktails too ;) Yea the beach was great actually, super warm and empty at the end of November haha :)

Hey Sarah, thanks so much for being there for us 😍😍 we’re trying our best to grow :))

That’s really interesting to know thank you! I can’t say we’ve ever struggled with the width of our van, or the length to be fair even with it being 7m. So maybe we are best off sticking to something like what we know.

Ah that’s a great tip thank you!

Where in Sussex was that? We’re from that way so know it well :) it doesn’t surprise us at all though, so of those little streets around Midhurst and Petworth etc can be quite narrow haha :)

10 weeks without a trim that is 😂😂 likewise! Not long now!!

Aww that’s so kind! We’re glad you’re enjoying the trip :) we’re loving it too haha ;) Taco is staying very safe don’t you worry, he’s a little princess 😂

We hadn’t even thought about them staying cooler, but that would be a great plus point with Taco. Being awkward to drive sounds hassle though! It won’t happen anytime soon, but thank you for the feedback! Yayyy, one vote for the glasses 😂

Ah how did you find the N2? Anything you’d do differently now that you’ve done it? We might end up doing it this time next year and spending some time down south and into southern Spain :)

Thanks guys! It's such a dilemma isn't it, especially after you've been in one and get back to your van and wonder where all the space has gone haha! Oooooh that's news! That could very well be the time to do it though ;)

Thanks John! It went down too well... And keeps going down just as well since 😂 We're now addicted and not even sorry!

Thank you so much!! We are planning to visit Italy in spring, we’ve never been before 😍😍

Portugal was lovely! We really didn’t want to leave (there’s still more videos to come from there 🙊) next year we’d like the do the N2 route which runs from North to South! Boursin is really good! I did make it a little bit runny though, but we’ve got another in the fridge to try again, with some crème fraiche this time! Xx
