Hello! We just want to preface this video by saying that we hope everyone affected by Fiona is okay and getting back on their feet. We didn’t expect the impact to be so far reaching. Selfishly we’re gutted we couldn’t see as much of NB as we wanted to. We can’t get across in one video what a beautiful province this is. There was a lot more storm damage then we realised and many roads were impassable. Huge thanks to our friend and Patron Devon for helping us with wild camps etc. We think the phrase hidden gem is often overused, but it absolutely applies to New Brunswick. We can’t wait to come back one day 💛✨
You’re leaving Canada far too soon. Entering “America” is merely caving in to slick marketing. I get it … you’ve made naive plans and are economically sticking to them based on “popularity-based” limited information. Please carry on and enjoy. I am a Brit-born Canadian who over the past 40 (or so) years has travelled to the States on numerous occasions on business and pleasure. Without fail I have been happy and grateful to not only experience the US, but also to return and fully appreciate the reality of my adopted homeland. I have thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated every trip to our neighbours to the south. Sadly, my fellow Brits know pathetically little of their fellow countrymen and the country here in Canada and far too frequently fall for the Hollywood-generated bullshit about NSM (Nited Sates Murica). Please enjoy your tour. Y’all come back ta Canada now, y’hear!?
@@vaughanlightowler6476 Thanks for your fascinating insights into our trip plans Vaughan. Can't say they're accurate, in fact, they're far from it, but interesting to read nonetheless. We'll be back to Canada, don't worry 😉🇨🇦
Sad to see you guys leave Canada, but glad you were here. It's heartwarming to see world travellers like yourselves appreciate the magnificence of this land and its people as much as we do. Too often when Europeans visit North America, they treat Canada as merely somewhere to get through while they go to their more important destination, the US. But, you two seemed to really value it and us. Best of luck on the rest of your journey and give the pups a squeeze for me, please.
This means a lot to us, thank you Terry 🧡 We really love getting to know the places we visit and I’m so happy that you can see how much we loved Nova Scotia, and Canada in general. Anyone who drives through Canada without getting to know the culture, the people, the varying landscapes… they’re doing it a disservice and missing out on so much. Thank you, again. Consider the pups suitably squeezed! 🐶💕🐶
I think I have learned more about Nova Scotia and New Brunswick from you guys and I've lived in Canada for over 40 years! Definitely going to go out and visit the Maritimes now - obviously some very special places to see and people to meet
the colors in Autumn, here in New Brunswick, are breathtaking. A week or so ago they were at their peak and now have turned to more golds and oranges losing the vibrant reds.
I just want to say that I have truly enjoyed watching your adventures through Nova Scotia ❤. New Brunswick is a surprising treasure to be sure. I was born and raised in Nova Scotia and lived in New Brunswick for 7 years. Watching your appreciation for my country and discovery of things for the first time that I have had around me all my life has been special. I can’t wait to watch you guys travel all the way to Argentina. When you guys do make your way back to Canada if you go to Alberta to see the Rocky Mountains than you must visit the town of Grande Cache. It’s a hidden gem. The unspoiled wilderness, the Smokey River and just the area is amazing. Lots of great overnight parking too. Alberta does boon-docking right (winter camping too). My shepherd’s pie tip if you don’t have an oven is cook it all on the stovetop. I start by cooking my ground turkey or beef and then I add my mix to it. I also add flour to firm up the mixture and this is done on medium heat. I add the cooked mashed potatoes to the top with some shredded cheese (gotta have the shredded cheese 😋) and then I put the heat down and cover the mixture and let simmer for 30 mins. It’s good shepherds pie!
Thanks so much for this amazing comment 🧡 Of course we loved Nova Scotia, it will forever hold a special place in our hearts. New Brunswick is incredibly beautiful… I wish we’d had the time to explore more and wait for places to open again after the hurricane. But, a reason to return! ☺️ Thanks for the tip on Alberta too, noted!
@@OverlandingSophia Few people really see New Brunswick as they are usually driving through to Nova Scotia or PEI. If you leave the coast a bit, it has a fantastic river system (cable ferries) and rolling green hills in southern NB. Loving your videos. I grew up In southern NB but now live in beautiful British Columbia.
You have to learn how to make Canadian Shepherd's pie (in french pâté chinoise). It is a bottom layer of ground beef, a middle layer of corn (normally creamed corn) and a top layer of mashed potatoes.
@@OverlandingSophia As for you, this is a Canadian comfort food. It can be prepared beforehand, placed in the freezer and taken out whenever you need it. The origin of the name in french is not really known. As you may have guessed the english translation could be given as Chinese Pie. My inclination is that the dish was first developed in the region of Lachine in the province of Quebec; thus the Chinoise part of the name which simply means from Chine or in this case Lachine. Lachine is just south of Montreal where the Lachine rapids start and was the furthest point that a large ship could go up the St-Lawrence river before the building of the Lachine canal in the 1950's. Way back when there were actually people who thought that China was not too far too the west; how wrong they were.
Thank you for showcasing the east coast in such a lovely way. The trip down through Maine, Vermont will be incredible especially if you’re hitting the fall colours❤️
We have honey crisp apples here in Ontario as well, but apparently they are hard to grow, so are generally more expensive than the other apple varieties. Glad you liked New Brunswick. You should also consider visiting the prairie provinces, Ontario and Quebec some time. All of Canada is awesome if you ask me.
Honey crisp apples were created in kentville and the genetics are patented by ScotianGold in Nova Scotia. They are more expensive because they are all graded in nova scotia regardless of where they are grown for commercial resale.
Goodness, you should work for the Canadian tourist board. It looks so beautiful, all those forests and places to walk and explore. If is wasn't on my bucket list it surely is now. I loved the beach with the sea cut stacks, I'm sure I've seen that in a couple of films. What I like most is how you can enjoy it all without hoards of people everywhere. Stay safe, look forward to next week, with love Sue and Bryn xx
Canada is beautiful, but you will love Maine too! We live in Bethel, which is in the western mountains along the New Hampshire border. We have a lovely spot along a river that you are welcome to stay at. Safe travels!
So glad you guys were safe during the hurricane! There are still so many people here in Nova Scotia with no power 10 days later! And it's so sad you didn't get to see a bear! I see them all the time just driving from my house to town an hour away. Also, I love seeing my home province from someone else's view , but I'm also very excited to see your journey continue because I have never been outside Canada!
We actually spoke to you outside of Meat Cove, Cape Breton and then passed you guys going through Fundy Trail. I wanted to turn around and go find you and say HI. We didn't tho but we love your videos and are so tickled to find your vids on RUclips ..Glad you are enjoying the Maritimes. I'm from NS and reside in Saint John NB now and believe like many that the Maritimes are some of the most beautiful places of Canada . Stay safe and enjoy your visit to Canada 🇨🇦 😊
You couldn’t ask for a more perfect time to be in the east or anywhere in the eastern side of Canada. You are just starting to see the leaves change and over the next several weeks, they will unveil the most spectacular blend of colours.
Thanks for stopping in to Nova Scotia , so happy you had a great time here. Your episodes have inspired us to do more travel here in our province. Save travels and will keep watching !
Sad to see you leaving Canada’s East coast. If you enjoyed it there you will be blown away by British Columbia and Vancouver Island, I still am and have lived here all my life!! If you need a place to park your van and replenish your water supply and/or anything else just let us know. Our twin daughters are also “adventurers” and would be more than happy to show you around the Island. Love your videos!! Take Care, safe travels.
My wife and I were set to go to Nova Scotia this week. However, because of the hurricane, we're now traveling the coast of Maine. Staying on Deer Isle at the moment, and it's lovely. Fall colors are great inland now too. We're from Southwest Virginia, so hit us up for places to see if you're traveling through. Enjoy the U.S.!
Your videography is amazing and choice of music as well. So beautiful. It's too bad you didn't get to PEI because of the hurricane. We hope you come back to Nova Scotia and see more of it. Enjoy your next leg of journey!
awesome video! so glad you made it to Masstown Market , NB has given us lots of camping ideas, from here in NS, safe travels to the US will be watching the rest of your trip , cant wait !
I really enjoy watching the videos showcasing NS and NB. It is such a beautiful part of Canada and ofcourse I'm little bias being this is my home. I wish all the best in your next adventures in the USA . I'm following along and looking forward to future videos. I think this van lifestyle is really cool way to explore. Best wishes and safe travels.
Canada hasn't disappointed it was amazing,now looking forward to the states ,one place i've always wanted to go is Maine so am looking forward to next week,its been a cracking series so far better than any travel show you 4 make our weekend.
Welcome!! I watched the video of your travel from N.S., to N.B. At the end when you are closing out at Black Beach, I was floored that you were standing on the shore of my favorite childhood place!! Thank you this!!😍
So nice to meet you. Glad you loved our 🇨🇦 Canada 🇨🇦. Enjoy the rest of your adventures. Safe travels. Sending you best wishes ❤ for delightful days ahead. 😊 See ya ... from Nova Scotia.
we have just returned from our rock-to-rock tour from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland and back. Yes Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are absolutely beautiful there is so much more. Our trip was 85 days and we barely saw the country. Come back soon. obviously we are partial to the west coast- it real is supernal British Columbia
I just discovered your channel and been binge watching your adventures. I love it!! 😀 I live in Gatineau, Quebec right across the river between Canada's capital Ottawa in Ontario. Quebec version of a shepherd's pie is as follows: bottom layer of ground beef (my mother adds chopped onions, celery and carrots), middle layer is half canned creamed corn and half canned corn kernels, top layer a generous amount of buttery mashed potatoes with a bit of paprika sprinkled on top. So delicious!!!!!!! Of course served best with homemade ketchup ❤ I'll keep following your travel, stay, healthy and happy!
I am so happy that you found our beautiful Atlantic provinces so welcoming and amazing. I am from the East Coast, but have lived in almost every province. Each is so diverse, and have there own incredible highlights and tons of charm. If you get a chance to come back you have to get out to the West Coast. British Columbia is home to the incredibly jaw dropping Rocky Mountains. But you were so wise to start in Nova Scotia. The Cabot Trail, and NS highlands are a crown jewel of our beautiful country. I can't wait to follow you on the rest of your journeys. Thanks for taking us along.
If you really want to see moose, Wilderness Edge Campground in Millinocket, Maine does (or at least used to) do moose watching outings. Enjoy NB, have lived here for all me 42 years.
We used that phrase for Cape Breton but in hindsight should have saved it for New Brunswick! Didn’t get chance to see half of what we wanted to because of the storm damage 💔 But what a province! So wild and untouched ✨✨
Hiya to all of you ! Love your vlogs ….. so informative and interesting. Tip for shepherds pie, just mash potatoes, no butter! I put grated cheese on the top before I put in the oven. Look forward to your next vlog, thanks for all your hard work xx
As someone who lives in Albert County, NB who’s originally from Yorkshire seeing you drive through Hillsborough & riverside Albert & then driving out to Cape Enrage where I go often was amazing! Wish I had discovered your channel sooner, safe travels across N. & S. America 🤗
Hi from NB. Thanks for visiting the East Coast. i will tune in again. As for Shepard Pie. I do an upside down shepared pie. Boil your potatoes, fry the hamberger (w/ onion) Then make a gravy in same pan. Some beef concertrate/stock, with either corn starch or flour to thicken. Some corn nibblets. On your plate a layer of mashed potato. layer of corn, then the best part beef with gravy over the top. OHH YUM.
I live in Moncton.... So happy you came to our Picture Province of Canada. Safe travels, and blessings for your journey south. Good idea to go south before the snow arrives up here. It's not fun here 5 months of the year. 🙏❤️ 🇨🇦🇬🇧🇨🇦🇬🇧🇨🇦
Forgot to mention. Your cooking looks great and your husband seems to love it. Also when you get to the United States, gasoline will be half price about $3.50 to $4.00 a gallon, in the south you can find gas for about $2.50 a gallon. That's about 65c a liter.
Ah thank you! I love cooking, thankfully Ben loves eating 😂 Yes the fuel should be much cheaper! Hence why we're running on fumes until we cross the border!
Ah, the good ol' Masstown market. Stopped many a time there with my parents driving from Dartmouth up to our cottage in Pugwash. That was before they built the bypass around Folly Mountain and the Wentworth Valley.
I am so happy that you started your trip in Nova Scotia and that I found you on You Tube. I am also a Brit and have lived in NS since 1982. I am 75 next week and for the last decade have been voing to Mexico for the winter. This year I want to drive down (if I can find a suitable van). Following your trail will be wonderful whether or not I manage to do it myself. Best wishes!
Ah that sounds amazing, we'll have to get some Mexico tips from you before we go 😃 We honestly fell in love with Nova Scotia, it's such a special place. Maybe we'll bump into you somewhere warmer this winter! 🥰
Such a stunning showcase of Eastern Canada. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I'm thrilled to hear you will be coming back through the West and the Yukon! The Territories get such little love! The Dempster Highway (if your van can handle it) and the Haines Road (easy drive) in the Yukon are must drives. Enjoy the rest of your trip!
thanks for coming to the Maritimes, and i can't wait for you to come back to Canada on the west coast, it has the most beautiful mountain scenery, safe travels to you
There it was again, loveeeed the conversion prices! What I also noticed, the roads are just so straight over there. Even if there are winding they still feel so straight. Crazy to me. Canada was such a great ride, let's see what the US of A have in store for you, can't wait! Love you xx 💕
Hehe I always think of you when I put the conversion in now! 😂 Yes great observation, the roads just go on forever! Also no roundabouts either! So excited to see what The States has in store. Much love to youuu! Xx 💕
WOW!!! Thanks again I feel like I’m there with you. Walking on the ocean floor-AMAZING. You better hide your spooky socks Ches from River and Scout 😂. See you all next week 💜
Thank you Starr! Hope you're enjoying your travels through Canada with us 💕 Hopewell Rocks was so beautiful. Haha socks are River's favourite toy, she absolutely loves destroying them 😂 See you next week, hope you can make it for the live on Patreon! xx
Safe travels to you! I have really enjoyed your journey. We were in Atlantic Canada this past summer, you are incredibly wise to go down into Maine. The drive through Quebec is awful! You’re going to like Maine it’s beautiful! Especially the southern Coast! York, Ogunquit, wells, Saco, etc. we have vacationed there several times! Enjoy! Be safe, Stay safe!
Sheppards' pie or Cottage Pie is always a problem. But, I do have an electronic recipe book I have been adding to for over 20 years, so here is the recipe. From memory and before I copy and paste, I seem to recall that gravy granuals are the key. I am also from the U.K. and I don't think I can get gravy granuals when I am in NS which is where I am going again next Wednesday. Recipe: Cottage Pie • 500g of steak mince • Two medium onions chopped • A desert spoon of olive oil - I would now say sunflower oil which seems hotter • half a teaspoon of salt • pepper to taste • two beef OXO cubes - or beef Boullion if you are in NS • 1 litre of water • gravy granules - *or make gravy with flour and water, beef Bouillion, stirring all the time until it slowly boils and thickens Fry the onions and the minced beedf until brown Add half a teaspoon of salt, pepper to taste and two beef OXO cubes Add 1 litre of water and over a slow heat boil for 30 to 45 minutes Adjust liquid while it is cooking to ensure it does not get dry Thicken with three heaped dessert spoons of gravy granules. Make sure the mixture is boiling before adding and allow extra time for it to thicken before you consider adding more granules. Or you can make gravy see* above. Top with strong (thick) mashed potatoes - go easy on the milk (just a splash), lots of butter and a generous seasoning of salt. Sprinkle cheddar over the top and put in the oven for about 30 minutes at 200 degrees centigrade or 400 degrees farenheit or gas mark 6 until it is bubbling and browning.
I have plans to visit NB, as my nephew and his family live in Moncton... looking forward to when we can do that once we've sold up our businesses next year, and now I think we'll do it in a van!! Best thing to use to thicken Cottage pie is porridge oats. Vegan and usually in the store cupboard, but helps to thicken anything. 😊 you're welcome.
Hi Chesca and Ben! Amelie here from Qc, Canada. I just found you on YT and love your videos! You made me want to travel to Nova Scotia! I passed through it on my way back from Newfoundland and saw the biggest fog i've never seen, i guess it's not rare there! It will be fun to watch all your videos up to now!
Hi Amelie! Ah this is such a lovely message to wake up to, thank you 🥹 Nova Scotia really is beautiful and worth a road trip - and yes, lots of fog!! 💛 xx
That was very beautiful, Thanks for showing us. . I don't know a lot about New Brunswick but I know a lot about Maine and the US. Maine is 90% Forrest with no people. There are a lot of moose and wildlife. You must go to Arcadia National park along the ocean, also there are lobster docks were they will cook you up big lobsters right on the docks for a few dollars, they will give you melted butter and fresh lemon. There is a lot of whale watching, also lobster mac and cheese and lobster roll sandwiches are very popular. When leaving maine there is a beautiful quaint tourist town called Ogunquit Maine, it's charming. This time of year you won't experience very warm weather until you get south of Virginia. I use to camp a lot in Maine in the 1980s.
I'm so excited to try fresh lobster rolls with melted butter!! Been looking forward to it since we watched it on a Mark Wiens video a while ago 😋 Thanks for the recommendations too, going to be a brand new adventure once we hit the States 💛
@@OverlandingSophia Yes I can't wait. I'm watching every video. Remember on the lobster docks, they steam lobster right there and it's pretty cheap if you go to the right dock. Years ago we all had 5 lb lobsters and they were only $20 apiece.
@@OverlandingSophiaOn Tread the Globe newest video. There is this great song at 9:40. I would love for you to play this in some of your videos. It really sets the mood. I'm old now and handicapped I wore out my body, and i now travel through you guys and Tread the Globe, Endless adventure, Travel beans and Nate and Kara.
I'm from Halifax, N.S. and my wife is originally from Moncton, N.B., so you've visited many places that we know well. Your perspective and enthusiasm are a treat. Glad you enjoyed your stay here. Sorry I didn't get to meet you. Safe travels....we'll be watching.
New Brunswick is beautiful been there many times to visit family. So glad you guys decided to showcase the East Coast maybe sometime you will visit the rest of Canada there is so much beauty to see here. The shepherds pie it if you make the gravy separate and put it over the shepherds pie then the meat mixture won't be as wet and the mashed potatoes won't sink in. The secret to the shepherds pie is to drain the meat mixture really well which then can support the mashed potatoes no matter how creamy you like them.
Oh my gosh, we will miss you here!! I have truly loved watching your videos of my province. Where you parked in New Minas was so very close to my home! Safe travels, much love, and as much love as your hearts can hold. Be well and have fun 😊. We will be following your travels. 🇨🇦❤️
I bought me old mum a findus Shepherds Pie, Cottage Pie and Cumberland Pie. Point is if the shepherds did a house share they could rent a cottage in Cumberland and I could buy one pie and instead of three and save a fortune! Don't forget The Double Skillet Pan system .Two pans together on low heat on the hob makes an oven.Pizza full roast dinner chops roast chicken even bake bread.Its online and made 15mins from my home specialy designed for vans,campers,caravans. Great vlog as always and many blessings to the five of you!
and another beautifully shot and planned video by you. As for the shepherd's pie, make both components a tad thicker, less saucy. I like to add fine breadcrumbs to the base rather than flour...it gives a lovely silky mouthfeel to it. Cumin also adds to the meaty flavour if you are using vegan mince.
Great to see you folks here in Canada, exploring the beauty of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. We were a little surprised when you mentioned you were heading south so early. Perfect time of the year to enjoy other areas especially Niagara Falls, Ontario. Hopefully you'll make your way back safely!
I’m glad I stayed the very end. Glad you are coming back because we have soooo much to offer from coast to coast to coast. I’m glad you shared a tidbit of life after Fiona and shots of the hard working crews out doing the clean up. Safe travel in the States.
Thank you! Yes we couldn’t leave Canada without seeing more, very excited to see what the west coast has to offer. Could have shared an entire vlog on the situation post-Fiona! Everywhere we went was still suffering, but the clean up crews were doing amazing jobs 🙏💛
Oh Wow, you are going up the other side of Canada...Wait till you see it So beautiful and wild ...YOU MUST......MUST get a Mile Post as soon as you get to western Canada. I know it will be a long time from now but DON'T FORGET ....it tells you every bit of Canada and Alaska mile to mile EVERYTHING! last I checked it is about 38.00 dollars but I promise worth every penny. I subscribed so I'll be following you ....I drove from Boston across the US and through Canada and Alaska in my little ford escort .
Thank you so much you two for starting your journey in Nova Scotia. You realize that now you've had storm chips, honey crisp apples, and Nova Scotia blueberries, you are unofficial Maritimers. Come back any time. Good journey.
My Dad used to play accordion at the Hopewell Rocks in the forties (in a band) during his off-time from the Merchant Marines. I was born 15 miles from there in Riverside...now live in California since 1984. My grandparents lived 3 miles from Cape Enrage (locals pronounce it "Cape Inridge") in Waterside...best of luck on your trip
Ha, you were minutes from us! Interestingly, the old orchard that is outside our door has the genetic precursors of the honey crisp apple, and had a role in the development of the final version. As someone who grew up in NS, I feel NB has just as much to offer. You'll have to come back!
@@OverlandingSophia Come park in the orchard next year on your way back eastwards to Nova Scotia, we'll take you to waterfalls not in the guide books and show you more of this stunning corner of New Brunswick!
I sincerely hope you will come back and visit us again. Nova Scotia will always welcome you with open arms. I can't wait to see what else your journey will bring. Safe travels!!
For your cottage pie topping you want to make sure your potatoes aren't overboiled as they'll hold too much water and fall apart before you even add any cream/butter.. you want the potatoes just soft enough to mash and then gradually add butter/cream until smooth.. then I always add cheese ontop and cook till its browned 🤌 hope this helps 😂
We live in Moncton. Its really amazing to see whats been in our backyard for the last 60 plus years from a new perspective. So excited to follow you adventures. Safe travels and looking forward to watching your videos. New subscribers from this video forward.
You have only seen a very small portion of this great country. The rest is equally amazing. The nice thing about Canada is that you are just a short drive away from those traffic jams and suddenly you are in nature.
Yep, just barely scratched the surface! The Maritimes have been incredible though, for such a small area of Canada they pack a punch. Can’t wait to come back and see more 🇨🇦
Great to see the place with the highest tide rise and fall in the world. As someone who was born and bred on the shores of the second highest, the Bristol Channel, we would often hear about the biggest.
I had to Google this! I had NO idea the UK had some of the highest tides in the world, and you’re absolutely. Would you believe it, I found out the top 5 tides in the world are in the UK, Canada, Alaska and Argentina. Our whole trip! 😂
FYI, this is rutting season for moose and deer...be careful hiking in woods. You do not want to see/get close to a male moose/deer this time of year. Thank you for spot lighting our part of the world. Safe travels🥰, Sharon.
A glimpse from the van or from a distance would have done us just fine! But they were obviously too busy looking for the ladies to come and say hi to us 😅🧡
Very relaxing and chilled viewing this week my angels!🥰😄 What a lovely video, AMAZING views and scenery😍🏔. I'm glad you have enjoyed your time in Canada! Onto new adventures in the USA and beyond!!😄 Stay safe you guys, lots of love from home. Look forward to the next one 💕xx
What a beautiful ride. Nice to see the dogs running free on the beach heavenly bliss. Rice pudding would be something to try in your oven on a cold morning, Thanks for taking me along, stay safe. Peace and keep the faith. Dean
So good to let them run free! We can't let them off leash in the national parks and on hikes so it's always great to give them chance to burn off all that energy. Thanks for coming with us Dean, sending love xx 💛

Sorry you had to get hurricaned out of NS. Happy to follow along in your explore of my beloved home! Happy trails!

My shepherd’s pie tip if you don’t have an oven is cook it all on the stovetop. I start by cooking my ground turkey or beef and then I add my mix to it.

Probably the best vlogging of Eastern Canada I have seen. I will definitely watch future videos !

Canada will miss you, welcome back anytime, there is So SO MUCH you have yet to see! Hugs From Ontario!
You have to learn how to make Canadian Shepherd's pie (in french pâté chinoise). It is a bottom layer of ground beef, a middle layer of corn (normally creamed corn) and a top layer of mashed potatoes.
Now that sounds amazing! Ben hates corn though so that might be one I get all to myself 😋
@@OverlandingSophia As for you, this is a Canadian comfort food. It can be prepared beforehand, placed in the freezer and taken out whenever you need it. The origin of the name in french is not really known. As you may have guessed the english translation could be given as Chinese Pie. My inclination is that the dish was first developed in the region of Lachine in the province of Quebec; thus the Chinoise part of the name which simply means from Chine or in this case Lachine. Lachine is just south of Montreal where the Lachine rapids start and was the furthest point that a large ship could go up the St-Lawrence river before the building of the Lachine canal in the 1950's. Way back when there were actually people who thought that China was not too far too the west; how wrong they were.
Thank you for showcasing the east coast in such a lovely way. The trip down through Maine, Vermont will be incredible especially if you’re hitting the fall colours❤️
We have honey crisp apples here in Ontario as well, but apparently they are hard to grow, so are generally more expensive than the other apple varieties.
Glad you liked New Brunswick. You should also consider visiting the prairie provinces, Ontario and Quebec some time. All of Canada is awesome if you ask me.
Honey crisp apples were created in kentville and the genetics are patented by ScotianGold in Nova Scotia. They are more expensive because they are all graded in nova scotia regardless of where they are grown for commercial resale.
So amazing watching you guys explore my homeland! Glad east coast Canada has been so welcoming ❤
Thanks so much lovely 💛 Canada has been wonderful, we already can't wait to come back next year xx
Safe travels and thank you so much for visiting and showcasing our beautiful Nova Scotia.
Thank you for coming along with us for the ride Russell, we've loved Nova Scotia. It will always be a special place for us xx
So glad you guys enjoyed Canada. Thanks for coming!
We LOVED It! Already looking forward to coming back 🥰 xx
Goodness, you should work for the Canadian tourist board. It looks so beautiful, all those forests and places to walk and explore. If is wasn't on my bucket list it surely is now.
I loved the beach with the sea cut stacks, I'm sure I've seen that in a couple of films. What I like most is how you can enjoy it all without hoards of people everywhere. Stay safe, look forward to next week, with love Sue and Bryn xx
Enjoyed todays video. Thanks for sharing. Take care from the UK.
New Brunswick is absolutely amazing, that’s where I’m going, when I retire. My daughter lives there, and just loves it.
I'm going to retire in Myrtle beach where it is warm and tropical. Lol
It's beautiful! We'd heard good things about it but it really blew us away. Only wish we could have explored it for longer 💛
Canada is beautiful, but you will love Maine too! We live in Bethel, which is in the western mountains along the New Hampshire border. We have a lovely spot along a river that you are welcome to stay at. Safe travels!
We can’t wait! Thanks so much for the kind offer Cathy 💛 We will be heading into New Hampshire and Vermont to see the fall colours 🍂 xx
So glad you guys were safe during the hurricane! There are still so many people here in Nova Scotia with no power 10 days later! And it's so sad you didn't get to see a bear! I see them all the time just driving from my house to town an hour away.
Also, I love seeing my home province from someone else's view , but I'm also very excited to see your journey continue because I have never been outside Canada!
We actually spoke to you outside of Meat Cove, Cape Breton and then passed you guys going through Fundy Trail. I wanted to turn around and go find you and say HI. We didn't tho but we love your videos and are so tickled to find your vids on RUclips ..Glad you are enjoying the Maritimes. I'm from NS and reside in Saint John NB now and believe like many that the Maritimes are some of the most beautiful places of Canada . Stay safe and enjoy your visit to Canada 🇨🇦 😊
You couldn’t ask for a more perfect time to be in the east or anywhere in the eastern side of Canada. You are just starting to see the leaves change and over the next several weeks, they will unveil the most spectacular blend of colours.
So sad to see you leaving. You really have only scratched the surface of the beauty and hospitality of our amazing country. Bon voyage!
It’s with heavy hearts we are leaving! But, we’ll see you next spring 💛💛
Thanks for stopping in to Nova Scotia , so happy you had a great time here. Your episodes have inspired us to do more travel here in our province. Save travels and will keep watching !
Sad to see you leaving Canada’s East coast. If you enjoyed it there you will be blown away by British Columbia and Vancouver Island, I still am and have lived here all my life!! If you need a place to park your van and replenish your water supply and/or anything else just let us know. Our twin daughters are also “adventurers” and would be more than happy to show you around the Island. Love your videos!! Take Care, safe travels.
My wife and I were set to go to Nova Scotia this week. However, because of the hurricane, we're now traveling the coast of Maine. Staying on Deer Isle at the moment, and it's lovely. Fall colors are great inland now too. We're from Southwest Virginia, so hit us up for places to see if you're traveling through. Enjoy the U.S.!
Alright, looking forward to watching your continuous adventure.....
Yess thank you so much Kim! 🥳✨
I'm thinking sheppards pie for supper😋
Your videography is amazing and choice of music as well. So beautiful. It's too bad you didn't get to PEI because of the hurricane. We hope you come back to Nova Scotia and see more of it. Enjoy your next leg of journey!
Thanks so much Cathy, that means a lot 💛💛 We’ll be back to PEI one day!
awesome video! so glad you made it to Masstown Market , NB has given us lots of camping ideas, from here in NS, safe travels to the US will be watching the rest of your trip , cant wait !
Chesca, your voiceover narratives are so well written!!!
Ah thanks so much Becky! The places inspire me so much! ✨
I really enjoy watching the videos showcasing NS and NB. It is such a beautiful part of Canada and ofcourse I'm little bias being this is my home. I wish all the best in your next adventures in the USA .
I'm following along and looking forward to future videos. I think this van lifestyle is really cool way to explore.
Best wishes and safe travels.
Thank you for coming! Safe travels :)
I am still so envious of you. I've enjoyed each episode in the Canadian Maritimes and I'll keep following the rest of your trip.
Canada hasn't disappointed it was amazing,now looking forward to the states ,one place i've always wanted to go is Maine so am looking forward to next week,its been a cracking series so far better than any travel show you 4 make our weekend.
The Fundy Trail Parkway is absolutely amazing!! So glad you got a chance to see it
River & Scout are living their best pupper lives
They really are, couldn’t be without those two crazy fluff balls 🐶 🐶
Welcome!!
I watched the video of your travel from N.S., to N.B.
At the end when you are closing out
at Black Beach, I was floored that you were standing on the shore of
my favorite childhood place!!
Thank you this!!😍
So nice to meet you. Glad you loved our 🇨🇦 Canada 🇨🇦.
Enjoy the rest of your adventures.
Safe travels.
Sending you best wishes ❤ for delightful days ahead. 😊
See ya ... from Nova Scotia.
we have just returned from our rock-to-rock tour from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland and back. Yes Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are absolutely beautiful there is so much more. Our trip was 85 days and we barely saw the country. Come back soon.
obviously we are partial to the west coast- it real is supernal British Columbia
I'm so glad you 2 enjoyed my Nova Scotia ❤ Hopewell rocks in NB are so awesome when the tide is out 🥰 come back anytime 😊
I just discovered your channel and been binge watching your adventures. I love it!! 😀 I live in Gatineau, Quebec right across the river between Canada's capital Ottawa in Ontario. Quebec version of a shepherd's pie is as follows: bottom layer of ground beef (my mother adds chopped onions, celery and carrots), middle layer is half canned creamed corn and half canned corn kernels, top layer a generous amount of buttery mashed potatoes with a bit of paprika sprinkled on top. So delicious!!!!!!! Of course served best with homemade ketchup ❤
I'll keep following your travel, stay, healthy and happy!
I am so happy that you found our beautiful Atlantic provinces so welcoming and amazing. I am from the East Coast, but have lived in almost every province. Each is so diverse, and have there own incredible highlights and tons of charm. If you get a chance to come back you have to get out to the West Coast. British Columbia is home to the incredibly jaw dropping Rocky Mountains. But you were so wise to start in Nova Scotia. The Cabot Trail, and NS highlands are a crown jewel of our beautiful country. I can't wait to follow you on the rest of your journeys. Thanks for taking us along.
If you really want to see moose, Wilderness Edge Campground in Millinocket, Maine does (or at least used to) do moose watching outings. Enjoy NB, have lived here for all me 42 years.
New Brunswick is Canada’s best kept secret!
We used that phrase for Cape Breton but in hindsight should have saved it for New Brunswick! Didn’t get chance to see half of what we wanted to because of the storm damage 💔 But what a province! So wild and untouched ✨✨
Hiya to all of you ! Love your vlogs ….. so informative and interesting. Tip for shepherds pie, just mash potatoes, no butter! I put grated cheese on the top before I put in the oven. Look forward to your next vlog, thanks for all your hard work xx
As someone who lives in Albert County, NB who’s originally from Yorkshire seeing you drive through Hillsborough & riverside Albert & then driving out to Cape Enrage where I go often was amazing! Wish I had discovered your channel sooner, safe travels across N. & S. America 🤗
Hi from NB. Thanks for visiting the East Coast.
i will tune in again. As for Shepard Pie. I do an upside down shepared pie. Boil your potatoes, fry the hamberger (w/ onion) Then make a gravy in same pan. Some beef concertrate/stock, with either corn starch or flour to thicken. Some corn nibblets.
On your plate a layer of mashed potato. layer of corn, then the best part beef with gravy over the top. OHH YUM.
Amazing. Sad to see the deverstation from the hurricane though. Stay safe. X
Thanks for visiting Nova Scotia and enjoy the rest of your adventures! Safe travels.
Thank you! We miss NS already 💛
I live in Moncton.... So happy you came to our Picture Province of Canada.
Safe travels, and blessings for your journey south. Good idea to go south before the snow arrives up here. It's not fun here 5 months of the year. 🙏❤️
🇨🇦🇬🇧🇨🇦🇬🇧🇨🇦
Not sure if anyone else has said but cottage pie tip- leave the mince to cool before putting the potato on top! Potato doesn't sink 👍
Forgot to mention. Your cooking looks great and your husband seems to love it. Also when you get to the United States, gasoline will be half price about $3.50 to $4.00 a gallon, in the south you can find gas for about $2.50 a gallon. That's about 65c a liter.
Ah thank you! I love cooking, thankfully Ben loves eating 😂 Yes the fuel should be much cheaper! Hence why we're running on fumes until we cross the border!
@@OverlandingSophia Very good!
Ah, the good ol' Masstown market. Stopped many a time there with my parents driving from Dartmouth up to our cottage in Pugwash. That was before they built the bypass around Folly Mountain and the Wentworth Valley.
Safe travels guys. Thanks again for the great videos and will be following you all the way. Until next time.
I am so happy that you started your trip in Nova Scotia and that I found you on You Tube. I am also a Brit and have lived in NS since 1982. I am 75 next week and for the last decade have been voing to Mexico for the winter. This year I want to drive down (if I can find a suitable van). Following your trail will be wonderful whether or not I manage to do it myself. Best wishes!
Ah that sounds amazing, we'll have to get some Mexico tips from you before we go 😃 We honestly fell in love with Nova Scotia, it's such a special place. Maybe we'll bump into you somewhere warmer this winter! 🥰
Such a stunning showcase of Eastern Canada. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I'm thrilled to hear you will be coming back through the West and the Yukon! The Territories get such little love! The Dempster Highway (if your van can handle it) and the Haines Road (easy drive) in the Yukon are must drives.
Enjoy the rest of your trip!
thanks for coming to the Maritimes, and i can't wait for you to come back to Canada on the west coast, it has the most beautiful mountain scenery, safe travels to you
Thanks so much Elwood, and thanks for coming along and watching us explore this part of Canada. We can’t wait to be back 🥰💛
There it was again, loveeeed the conversion prices!
What I also noticed, the roads are just so straight over there. Even if there are winding they still feel so straight. Crazy to me.
Canada was such a great ride, let's see what the US of A have in store for you, can't wait! Love you xx 💕
Hehe I always think of you when I put the conversion in now! 😂 Yes great observation, the roads just go on forever! Also no roundabouts either! So excited to see what The States has in store. Much love to youuu! Xx 💕
Ketchup wit Sheppard's pie! Yes! Thank you! My wife gives me such grief for doing that
Oh no not you as well! I give Ben grief for it 😂😂
WOW!!! Thanks again I feel like I’m there with you. Walking on the ocean floor-AMAZING. You better hide your spooky socks Ches from River and Scout 😂. See you all next week 💜
Thank you Starr! Hope you're enjoying your travels through Canada with us 💕 Hopewell Rocks was so beautiful. Haha socks are River's favourite toy, she absolutely loves destroying them 😂 See you next week, hope you can make it for the live on Patreon! xx
Safe travels to you! I have really enjoyed your journey. We were in Atlantic Canada this past summer, you are incredibly wise to go down into Maine. The drive through Quebec is awful! You’re going to like Maine it’s beautiful! Especially the southern Coast! York, Ogunquit, wells, Saco, etc. we have vacationed there several times! Enjoy! Be safe, Stay safe!
Sheppards' pie or Cottage Pie is always a problem. But, I do have an electronic recipe book I have been adding to for over 20 years, so here is the recipe. From memory and before I copy and paste, I seem to recall that gravy granuals are the key. I am also from the U.K. and I don't think I can get gravy granuals when I am in NS which is where I am going again next Wednesday.
Recipe:
Cottage Pie
• 500g of steak mince
• Two medium onions chopped
• A desert spoon of olive oil - I would now say sunflower oil which seems hotter
• half a teaspoon of salt
• pepper to taste
• two beef OXO cubes - or beef Boullion if you are in NS
• 1 litre of water
• gravy granules - *or make gravy with flour and water, beef Bouillion, stirring all the time until it slowly boils and thickens
Fry the onions and the minced beedf until brown
Add half a teaspoon of salt, pepper to taste and two beef OXO cubes
Add 1 litre of water and over a slow heat boil for 30 to 45 minutes
Adjust liquid while it is cooking to ensure it does not get dry
Thicken with three heaped dessert spoons of gravy granules. Make sure the mixture is boiling before adding and allow extra time for it to thicken before you consider adding more granules. Or you can make gravy see* above. Top with strong (thick) mashed potatoes - go easy on the milk (just a splash), lots of butter and a generous seasoning of salt. Sprinkle cheddar over the top and put in the oven for about 30 minutes at 200 degrees centigrade or 400 degrees farenheit or gas mark 6 until it is bubbling and browning.
I was always taught to make shepherd's pie with day old potato mash. Warm it a bit so it will spread, then into your oven.
I can’t wait for you’ll to get USA!
Thanks Randee! 💛✨
I have plans to visit NB, as my nephew and his family live in Moncton... looking forward to when we can do that once we've sold up our businesses next year, and now I think we'll do it in a van!!
Best thing to use to thicken Cottage pie is porridge oats. Vegan and usually in the store cupboard, but helps to thicken anything. 😊 you're welcome.
Also, don't forget to drop into the chocolate museum when you get to St.Stephen. You won't regret it.
Ben doesn't want to miss it 😆
Hi Chesca and Ben! Amelie here from Qc, Canada. I just found you on YT and love your videos! You made me want to travel to Nova Scotia! I passed through it on my way back from Newfoundland and saw the biggest fog i've never seen, i guess it's not rare there! It will be fun to watch all your videos up to now!
Hi Amelie! Ah this is such a lovely message to wake up to, thank you 🥹 Nova Scotia really is beautiful and worth a road trip - and yes, lots of fog!! 💛 xx
That was very beautiful, Thanks for showing us. . I don't know a lot about New Brunswick but I know a lot about Maine and the US. Maine is 90% Forrest with no people. There are a lot of moose and wildlife. You must go to Arcadia National park along the ocean, also there are lobster docks were they will cook you up big lobsters right on the docks for a few dollars, they will give you melted butter and fresh lemon. There is a lot of whale watching, also lobster mac and cheese and lobster roll sandwiches are very popular. When leaving maine there is a beautiful quaint tourist town called Ogunquit Maine, it's charming. This time of year you won't experience very warm weather until you get south of Virginia. I use to camp a lot in Maine in the 1980s.
I'm so excited to try fresh lobster rolls with melted butter!! Been looking forward to it since we watched it on a Mark Wiens video a while ago 😋 Thanks for the recommendations too, going to be a brand new adventure once we hit the States 💛
@@OverlandingSophia Yes I can't wait. I'm watching every video. Remember on the lobster docks, they steam lobster right there and it's pretty cheap if you go to the right dock. Years ago we all had 5 lb lobsters and they were only $20 apiece.
@@OverlandingSophiaOn Tread the Globe newest video. There is this great song at 9:40. I would love for you to play this in some of your videos. It really sets the mood. I'm old now and handicapped I wore out my body, and i now travel through you guys and Tread the Globe, Endless adventure, Travel beans and Nate and Kara.
Much fun seeing my Country thru your eyes
Love that you think so, thanks David 💛
I'm from Halifax, N.S. and my wife is originally from Moncton, N.B., so you've visited many places that we know well. Your perspective and enthusiasm are a treat. Glad you enjoyed your stay here. Sorry I didn't get to meet you. Safe travels....we'll be watching.
New Brunswick is beautiful been there many times to visit family. So glad you guys decided to showcase the East Coast maybe sometime you will visit the rest of Canada there is so much beauty to see here. The shepherds pie it if you make the gravy separate and put it over the shepherds pie then the meat mixture won't be as wet and the mashed potatoes won't sink in. The secret to the shepherds pie is to drain the meat mixture really well which then can support the mashed potatoes no matter how creamy you like them.
Oh my gosh, we will miss you here!! I have truly loved watching your videos of my province. Where you parked in New Minas was so very close to my home! Safe travels, much love, and as much love as your hearts can hold. Be well and have fun 😊. We will be following your travels. 🇨🇦❤️
I can not believe you didn't see a million raccoons in NS. We see them all the time in Halifax. Great tour guys. NS misses you already.
Not one! That's alive anyway. Maybe the dogs keep them away?!
@@OverlandingSophia If you find yourself missing any food, know that they've seen you! They are cunning little buggers.
I bought me old mum a findus Shepherds Pie, Cottage Pie and Cumberland Pie.
Point is if the shepherds did a house share they could rent a cottage in Cumberland and I could buy one pie and instead of three and save a fortune!
Don't forget The Double Skillet Pan system .Two pans together on low heat on the hob makes an oven.Pizza full roast dinner chops roast chicken even bake bread.Its online and made 15mins from my home specialy designed for vans,campers,caravans.
Great vlog as always and many blessings to the five of you!
😂😂 Your jokes always get me! Hope you’re having a lovely week Nick, sending love xx
and another beautifully shot and planned video by you. As for the shepherd's pie, make both components a tad thicker, less saucy. I like to add fine breadcrumbs to the base rather than flour...it gives a lovely silky mouthfeel to it. Cumin also adds to the meaty flavour if you are using vegan mince.
Glad you loved my home!
Great to see you folks here in Canada, exploring the beauty of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. We were a little surprised when you mentioned you were heading south so early. Perfect time of the year to enjoy other areas especially Niagara Falls, Ontario. Hopefully you'll make your way back safely!
I’m glad I stayed the very end. Glad you are coming back because we have soooo much to offer from coast to coast to coast. I’m glad you shared a tidbit of life after Fiona and shots of the hard working crews out doing the clean up. Safe travel in the States.
Thank you! Yes we couldn’t leave Canada without seeing more, very excited to see what the west coast has to offer. Could have shared an entire vlog on the situation post-Fiona! Everywhere we went was still suffering, but the clean up crews were doing amazing jobs 🙏💛
Glad everyone is offering you help. Great video. 💕for River and Scout
Oh Wow, you are going up the other side of Canada...Wait till you see it So beautiful and wild ...YOU MUST......MUST get a Mile Post as soon as you get to western Canada. I know it will be a long time from now but DON'T FORGET ....it tells you every bit of Canada and Alaska mile to mile EVERYTHING! last I checked it is about 38.00 dollars but I promise worth every penny. I subscribed so I'll be following you ....I drove from Boston across the US and through Canada and Alaska in my little ford escort .
Thank you so much you two for starting your journey in Nova Scotia. You realize that now you've had storm chips, honey crisp apples, and Nova Scotia blueberries, you are unofficial Maritimers. Come back any time. Good journey.
Kevin, we would be HONOURED to be unofficial Maritimers! 😍 We miss Nova Scotia, left a piece of our hearts there! xx
My Dad used to play accordion at the Hopewell Rocks in the forties (in a band) during his off-time from the Merchant Marines. I was born 15 miles from there in Riverside...now live in California since 1984. My grandparents lived 3 miles from Cape Enrage (locals pronounce it "Cape Inridge") in Waterside...best of luck on your trip
We’ve enjoyed watching your journey through Canada, such stunning scenery! Thank you for sharing 💛
Thanks so much guys, Canada is a beaut! 💛💛
Ha, you were minutes from us! Interestingly, the old orchard that is outside our door has the genetic precursors of the honey crisp apple, and had a role in the development of the final version.
As someone who grew up in NS, I feel NB has just as much to offer. You'll have to come back!
Ah no way! We would have waved if we knew! Or stopped to say hello 😃 💛
@@OverlandingSophia Come park in the orchard next year on your way back eastwards to Nova Scotia, we'll take you to waterfalls not in the guide books and show you more of this stunning corner of New Brunswick!
Whoop it’s Sunday 🚐🐾🚐🐾⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Woop hell yeah it is 🥳
I sincerely hope you will come back and visit us again. Nova Scotia will always welcome you with open arms. I can't wait to see what else your journey will bring. Safe travels!!
I wish you safety and happiness! See ya next time you’re in Cape Breton 🤗✌️
Thank you! And we wish the same for you 🥰 See you again one day xx
Thanks for visiting us and sharing these awesome videos! Looking forward to traveling with you to Argentina!
You are more than welcome, thanks for joining us Ken! Hope you enjoy the ride to Argentina! 🥳🥳
This is great adventures of Canada
Thank you my love! Glad you’re enjoying 💛🥰
For your cottage pie topping you want to make sure your potatoes aren't overboiled as they'll hold too much water and fall apart before you even add any cream/butter.. you want the potatoes just soft enough to mash and then gradually add butter/cream until smooth.. then I always add cheese ontop and cook till its browned 🤌 hope this helps 😂
Sorry to see you leaving New Brunswick so soon but glad you got to see a little bit of it! It truly has so much to offer! ❤️
We live in Moncton. Its really amazing to see whats been in our backyard for the last 60 plus years from a new perspective. So excited to follow you adventures. Safe travels and looking forward to watching your videos. New subscribers from this video forward.
You have only seen a very small portion of this great country. The rest is equally amazing. The nice thing about Canada is that you are just a short drive away from those traffic jams and suddenly you are in nature.
Yep, just barely scratched the surface! The Maritimes have been incredible though, for such a small area of Canada they pack a punch. Can’t wait to come back and see more 🇨🇦
Yay … you coming to BC 🎉🎉 Good choice …🇨🇦🇨🇦
Love your adventures! I live near Masstown, N.S. I am from near Hopewell Cape Rocks. All beautiful!!
We have honey crisp apples here in the US where I live, they are so good!
My favourite pumpkin 🎃 carving was the icon for 2% on the cellphone battery 😂
Great to see the place with the highest tide rise and fall in the world.
As someone who was born and bred on the shores of the second highest, the Bristol Channel, we would often hear about the biggest.
I had to Google this! I had NO idea the UK had some of the highest tides in the world, and you’re absolutely. Would you believe it, I found out the top 5 tides in the world are in the UK, Canada, Alaska and Argentina. Our whole trip! 😂
A sprinkle of TVP over the base and let sit for 5 mins....it should rehydrate and soak up enough "gravy "for the mash not to sink.
FYI, this is rutting season for moose and deer...be careful hiking in woods. You do not want to see/get close to a male moose/deer this time of year. Thank you for spot lighting our part of the world. Safe travels🥰, Sharon.
A glimpse from the van or from a distance would have done us just fine! But they were obviously too busy looking for the ladies to come and say hi to us 😅🧡
Very relaxing and chilled viewing this week my angels!🥰😄 What a lovely video, AMAZING views and scenery😍🏔. I'm glad you have enjoyed your time in Canada! Onto new adventures in the USA and beyond!!😄 Stay safe you guys, lots of love from home. Look forward to the next one 💕xx
What a beautiful ride. Nice to see the dogs running free on the beach heavenly bliss.
Rice pudding would be something to try in your oven on a cold morning,
Thanks for taking me along, stay safe.
Peace and keep the faith.
Dean
So good to let them run free! We can't let them off leash in the national parks and on hikes so it's always great to give them chance to burn off all that energy. Thanks for coming with us Dean, sending love xx 💛
