Thanks for ladder answer.....good to hear yours is from Wheeliams as that's the Company we thought we would use! We are just back from 2nd road trip to Scotland over the last few weeks and agree tis a special place and to avoid Loch Lomond! PS. we live in Cumbria and there are some quiet top spots too to be found, as long as you keep away from anywhere shown on a tv show about the Lakes or a vlog 😂 🚐
It’s not the places that are not worth visiting but unfortunately us as guests that not all of us treat the area and the locals with respect
Curl one out! I couldn't stop giggling, the misus was wondering what I was watching. Fantastic. Cheers keep the vids coming.
Super Q&A. Thank you.
That's great guys. I've been reading into the fire movement, (financial independence retire early) and what you said rings true with what I've read and what I'm experiencing. Really need to sort my end goal. Got my own company and 10 staff and doing over 60 hour weeks. Getting sick of it. Cheers, Kenny.
FIRE is a great set of principles, ideas and inspiration working towards independence. We have been thinking about it for 6 years, got our van last year and are downsizing next month ready to retire next year! Good luck on your journey.
@@jamieh2239 love it! well done you! Have you read "the simple path to wealth" its a lifechanging book. My ISA is S&S and in the S&P500 on Vanguard and I'm up 56% in 3 years! sounds like one of those scam messages but I'm actually not selling anything hahahahah.
A lot of those 60 hours will be to ensure you’ve got enough to pay the 10 workers. I went from a partnership with 12 staff to become a one man band. Never been happier. I’ve cut my cloth and do what I want when I want. Don’t have a lot of cash but that ain’t important. Using a combination of van travels and plane travels and living in Northumberland. Every day is in a holiday destination.
@craster_van_kippers great advice mate. I think growth is a problem that we all for some reason constantly seek. If I get more I can do more and if I do more I can get more. Then before you know it you’ve got so much overheads that you can’t slow down. That’s why I’m in the process of scaling my life right back, if I can get things down to a much lower level I can make less, work less and enjoy much more time doing what I want to do instead of working.
That family with the dodgy car and a cover that doesn't fit MINT!! ....father looks like greengrass from heartbeat aswell. Good laugh! Enjoyed it.
I know what you mean about travelling in the South, I live in the South East and taking the van even 50 miles to the coast can be a real mission depending on traffic, and crammed roads with angry frustrated people.
I agree with your outlook on life - the sooner the modern generations realise you can be happy with very few material things - and reduce the clutter in your life - suddenly life makes so much more sense. If that fails start journalling around your thoughts, and document why you make certain decisions - you might discover things about you, your thought process, and above all you might just live the best life you can create.
For got to add - I have found that having my T6 converted, is helpful in that I dont book other types of holiday any more, I enjoy the freedom, knowing where I sleep, and knowing what my hotel room is each night, is better than the uncertainty of travelling and staying in hotels.
Cracking video Chris, hopefully seen you on the Isle of Arran in the future. We are looking an our first visit at the end of July…….. 😮
Hi
We’re from near Durham. Moved to Arran in 2001. Moved back to look after parents and moved back again in 2017 … love it here. If you have any questions ask away
Thanks for the video, really nice to listen to. Can relate to lots. Norway this summer 👌Really like both type of content, the extra all mega produced and the vlogs, keep it up 👌💪
Loving the mix of content. I would happily move into a van. Helen is insistent we need a bolt hole. We just need to decide how big that should be!
Thanks for answering my question. Totally agree. Cornwall is far too busy and overrated.
Loved this video thank you, been in my GC600 for coming up to 3 years, would never go back, also spent thousands on electrical, but you know what, ripped it all out and reverted back to original, feel happier for it. Summertime, the oem solar, keeps the battery topped off, wintertime, No matter what you have, it will run empty.
Loving the more regular vlogs it definitely works better 👌👌…Couldn’t live without a camper done the T’s and Cali’s but a mwb man feels like the sweet spot .
Getting away in your van is what it’s all about…keep it up it’s great to watch
Great video Chris,loads of good questions and answers.Neraring the end of our sprinter build and we've got a Clayton...great bit of kit!
It was so cool getting a more behind-the-scenes perspective on what goes into documenting your travels.
Thanks Wendy!
Having bought all your guides tell me how to incorporate them all . I have no time limits.
You sound like me Chris (both accent and outlook). Were heading back to the UK after 18 years in Australia and I'm definitely on the lookout for a van for some new adventures...especially in Scotland. Keep up the good work with the vids.
Right now if had van and could I would but children with special needs stops that , but importance of life , enjoy it love what you see . I think your natural videos showing the normal and nitty gritty parts are why they are interesting.❤ your videos are very good ❤ envious you can see .
Great advice mate and can’t believe you’re only 37 lol 😂 feel old now .
Staying Scotland lol 😂 there’s definitely no theme parks there mate 😂😂
Scotland - Dubness Gathering of the vans you may enjoy that 9th - 11th Aug 2024
Drill a hole in ya back door, me and the Mrs are still howling
😂😂😂
Agree about Cornwall, once did a day trip with daughter from Midlands to St Ives to do the Dame Barbara Hepworth museum, and the Tate gallery, they were great but the town, coaches loads of tourists, crocs and tracksuit brigade.
Did go again different time of year, stayed at a hotel, coastal walking, the walks were good, but still crammed, even parking at hotel had to be booked.
So definitely not Devon or Cornwall.
Hi Chris, you mention Loch Lomond in the video. I have planned the first leg of my Scotland trip using the book and online maps you kindly sent. Should I forget about trying to stay overnight in the Loch Lomond area and push on up? Newby going full time next month in a 7m motorhome. Should be fun and games 😂🤔
For me personally id probably just drive past loch lomond as the guide says and try to find somewhere near Glencoe or Fort William. Loch Lomond looks gorgeous but theres not a lot there and its busy. Plus once you pass Loch Lomond thats when it properly begins and the scenery goes nuts.
Hi Chris, great Vids thanks any chance of sharing where you get your photo albums made 👌🏻
I’ve used a fair few, Flickr are pretty good to have them made, Mixam, wherethetradebuys too. Flickr is probably one of the easier websites to use to create one though
@@ChrisSloanes many thanks, love the guides by the way 👌🏻
No.
Considering getting some of your guides, however have not read the other guides I’ve got yet.
Already done it 5 years ago, would never go back.
Where do you get your photobooks from?

Buying a camper van is definitely the best investment we’ve ever made. Question why anyone needs so many possessions, we can’t take it with us.
I couldnt agree more.
I'd just like to say how much I love your videos, but because you remind me of me. I don't suffer fools. I'm not materialistic because materialism is ego based. And i don't give a flying fk what people think. 😂
Chris, you sidestepped the question about what did you do for a living and who do you make your money now ? Assuming that you are not selling thousands of guides !
I didnt in the original edit but then the video was far too long as i waffled on. I have a business in the energy industry. I take a wage from that and then the rest is made up from the pennies RUclips pays and the guides.
@@ChrisSloanes thanks for your reply, I think a lot of people wondered how you could possible afford such a nice van, gated detached house and so many trips away all from utube and your guides, you are not a typical Vanlife utuber 👏👏👏👏👏🥳🥳🥳🥳
Oh, and I forgot to mention a gorgeous wife, how do you manage with that less than Cavalier beard ?😆😆😆😆😆😆 now get back to work 👏👏👏
