Join us on our adventures in the Van!
The van is a McLouis Fusion 331, our 1st motorhome which we got in April 2024 and it is just the perfect size for the two of us on the road. (Thank you Ben Fogle for the inspiration - "New lives in the wild")
This is the next chapter of our life together and we are very excited about all the places we can go!
We're new to both vlogging and to motorhoming, so please bear with us - we hope to improve!
We don't have a drone, so you won't get all that fancy footage!
...but we did upgraded our camera (Aug 24), and M is still learning how to use it... When she learns her left from right and up to down, things might get better!!!
And the video editing is improving (slightly), as the weeks go on.
A few months in and we experimented with a 6 week road trip - could full time vanlife be for us?
Thank you for watching, do give us a thumbs up - we are trying (very) :)

Big Trip 2024 5 Hadrians Wall, Corbridge, Vindolanda, Birdoswald and Lanercost Priory Motorhome UK
Part 5 - Hadrian's Wall, Corbridge, Sycamore Gap, Vindolanda, Birdoswald and Lanercost Priory.
Our 6 week motorhome tour of England, Scotland and Wales continues with a long awaited trip to Hadrian's Wall. Starting in Corbridge, we visit the Roman Town and spend the night in a picnic area in Haydon Bridge. The following day we head off to attempt a 4 mile circular walk along the Wall, with a picnic at Sycamore Gap along the way. We have a whistlestop tour of Vindolanda and another night at an off-grid park up - a rather scenic layby. Finishing our tour of Hadrian's Wall at Birdoswald Roman Fort and Vindolanda before heading off to Scotland for the next leg of our journey.

As we reach the end of our first week away (of our 6 week trip) we find ourselves booked onto campsites two nights in a row! What luxury! An accidental oversight, as the cassette filled up a day quicker than we anticipated! But our first laundry day has arrived and the carpet finally dried out, after the flood, but now we've got wet shoes to get dry!! This is part 4 of our six week motorhome tr...

This is part 1 of about 10-12 videos documenting our Big Motorhome Trip 2024, which took in over 2400 miles across the UK throughout August and September. Living in the van for 6 weeks - will either make or break us!! Not having had the van very long, we had no idea what long term (compared to a few months of being weekend warriors) vanlife would be like. But, we have visited some amazing place...
Cracked Motorhome Shower Tray Using Speedcoat instead of replacing Review
Просмотров 3913 месяца назад
We discovered a bit of a problem with our shower tray a few weeks ago and initially thought it was going to be a very expensive fix. However, we called in Speedcoat - and this video is about our experience of using them, their service and the end results. Also, a bit of chat about adding a bit of extra support to the shower tray and adding sealant around the shower tray. We hope this might be u...

Part 2 of our little weekend trip in the motorhome. In this video we are staying at Church View Campsite in Barrow, Suffolk and there is a lot more banter and chat in this one, as we didn't really venture out very far! So this is less of a travel vlog, more of a campsite review and a 'fly on the wall' view into our life in the van... We will be back to normal service soon! Part 1 of our trip ca...

McLouis Fusion Reversing Camera Fix , Replacement Do it Yourself for Under £4.00
Просмотров 665 месяцев назад
A short video about how we fixed the reversing camera on our McLouis Fusion 331 Motorhome for under £4 - saving us around £470. It was super easy to do, but made simpler by the diagnostic work that we had to pay for the dealer to do, this cost £120. The dealer then wanted £600 to supply the camera, and for the labour to fit it. This is simply our little journey of how we figured out it was just...

Our first motorhome adventures, its not great - but at least we made it! #Vanlifeuk
Thats on my Bucket List for 2025 , Ive just had the all clear im going to make the most of it .Cant wait.
Hope you have a great trip next year! Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
If you're ever in Castleton again I can recommend the George Hotel behind Castle Inn for food. 3x the amount of food that you get in rip off restaurants for a fraction of the price and you need to be really hungry to finish a meal. The food is all locally sourced and home made
Thanks for the tip! We'll be sure to check it out next time we are there.
Please note: The Car Park at Dunwich now only accommodates 5 Vans overnight. No BBQs and No open fires.
Strange seeing people talk about the place you live aha rate the videos
Thetford Priory.... Haunted !! Sorry theres a theme here 😂 loving your post! Its making me a little homesick tho.
Haha - we didn't see any ghosts... or maybe we should check the footage again!
😂😂😂 the Mayors Chain !!!! I expect you know about the hauntings there at the Warren ?? Lovely area to visit.
No!!! Wow, maybe we would have been a little more on the look out!
Off grid? 😂
Off Grid - without using or depending on public utilities. Thanks for dropping by!
@@VanRox8 Like water for instance?
@@byteme9718 Haha, we had plenty of water come down so that wouldn't have been an issue! But point taken gracefully, we didn't coin the phrase - it's just the phrase that's widely used for not using a regular campsite.
❤
Thanks!
