  • Join Matt this week as he sits down with Kat Bird, aka Wandering Bird. In this engaging conversation, Kat shares her incredible journey from conventional life to full-time motorhome living, all while building a successful brand around her adventures. Discover her insights into the motorhome industry and learn how she's helping individuals embrace solo travel and overcome their fears.
    Dive deep into her experiences in Iceland, mental health, and the challenges and rewards of being a solopreneur and growing a successful website in the travel and leisure space. Tune in and get inspired by Kat's passion for motorhoming and her dedication to helping others make the most of their free time.
    In the news, Matt and Keith focus on the all-new Ford Nugget, shown at the recent Caravan Salon. Matt discusses his first impressions of the van conversion, its unique layout, and its practicality for both families and couples. Plus, we also explore the impact of mainstream car manufacturers like Ford entering the campervan market.
    In the audience Q&A, Matt and Keith unpack your questions on rear-view cameras and the different options available in the market and a throwback to our previous episode on emptying your cassette toilet down your toilet at home.

    Watch loads of your videos and Kat’s RUclips just about to collect a new motorhome to us and find both channels very informative and entertaining. I’ve also bought two courses from the Wandering bird

    Absolutely love your podcasts Matt. I’ve had VW campers for decades but recently sold my T5, now looking for our first motorhome. I really appreciate all the information. I recently subscribed to Kats RUclips channel, so inspiring. Thanks all. 🚐

    Motorhome Matt, Wandering Bird constantly advocates "wild camping" in her You tube videos, website, etc, ect. This is illegal in the UK, are you okay with promoting this ?

    • @MotorhomeMatt
      @MotorhomeMatt  3 месяца назад +1

      Kat would only advocate parking off grid where you would not be causing an issue I’m sure. But ask her. She’s very friendly really 🤣

      @@MotorhomeMatt I have, many times, she ignores me, it's the terminology, it's misleading.

      I will have a word with the Bird when I see her next 🤣

      @@MotorhomeMatt I would appreciated that. It may only be words but in Scotland wild camping has a legal definition which excludes vehicles. Wandering Bird & others encourage their viewers to do the same & many leave their detritus & worse behind them. Many park overnight on private property & without the landowner's permission. MP's & MSP's are joining residents in contacting those such as Wondering Bird to ask them to stop using this terminology. Thank you.
