- Summary of costs and our journey leaving the Schengen zone, it was difficult to say the least! From Spain through France, Italy, Slovenia and finally Croatia, many issues and many tears, but moments of beauty and laughs along the way too.
Hopefully this video can be helpful to anyone else out there thinking of embarking on this trip.
We used Tollsmart to help calculate costs of tolls in advance of trip. www.tollsmart.com/european-to...
Thankyou to all our wonderful friends on Instagram who reached out and offered us support and help during the break down in Italy.

⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. So after waiting for borders to reopen in Ireland we have finally hit the road in June 2021. Currently in Spain, but soon we will be heading east and taking each day as it comes!! Subscribe to join us on the ride!

Let us know if there's any other information you would find useful about this journey. We really appreciated all the help and support along the way, you guys rock!
Thanks so much for watching!
How bladders per hour to you do?🤣
I’m such a baby, I was almost in tears when you fixed your van, I was so relieved! Even though I know what happened.. seeing it was so emotional 😭
So glad you made it!!! Hahah me and Jake go crazy when driving too, we take it in turns and change few hours but always end up making raps and rhymes that get ridiculous 🤣🤣
Thanks so much, good that we seem to have successfully portrayed the emotion of the whole situation, it was so draining, but so glad we kept pushing and ultimately got here safely. Looking forward to some crazy convoys with you guys, i anticipate lots of ridiculous raps haha
I think philly would have cried had the camera not been on. Yeooooooo time for Croatia baby
Yeah Baby
You two crack me up! Your singing and Scooby Doo references are hilarious. Your stop over with a swim in France looked awesome!!
Thanks Rebecca 🥰🥰
GUYS!! We were SO glad you made it safely to Croatia. Our hearts broke for you with the problems happening so close to you reaching Croatia. We’re so impressed with how you both managed such a stressful situation. Schengen visa deadlines, shitty border control assholes!, a van with some undiagnosed issues. You’re both amazing for dealing with it the way you did - even if it felt upsetting and stressful you got your heads down and made it! Now we can’t wait to see what new adventures you get up to 🤩 xx
Yeah sometimes we can't believe the stuff we manage to endure haha, it's the struggles that make the memories eh!! Yeah hopefully plenty more adventures to come :) Maybe some with you cutie pies :P
The driving delerium had me in bits!!!!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed that 🤣🤣 it was funny for us to watch back footage and realise we had went insane haha
Watched during lunch break the day. Now rewatching on the big screen. 👌 fantastic.
Going do laly 🤣 hilarious.
Thanks so much for all your support honestly we appreciate it so much
I’m gonna comment now before the stressful part of the video!! I’m halfway through and wowwww what a gorgeous morning, coffee, mountains and a wee swim. So glorious! It’s all worth it for moments like that guys 💖 love you both! X
Thanks my love xx hopefully some day we will all be enjoying a coffee by a lake after a morning swim, would love a wee "just life" adventure with you both.
You two are a joy to watch you deserve all the luck in the world🥰💛💚💙
Thanks Veronica ❣️
Fuel/mileage prices are way better than I expected. That’s fantastic. Hope brake discs aren’t too expensive.
Wouldn't have made it without you!!!
Lol at mum and dad ripping you out for being late 🤣🤣
I know right hahaha
Omg what a rollercoaster this was. You left it to the last minute a bit! Shame this video didnt get more views as it’s a great one. The bored singing in the car was hilarious.
Thanks PB 🥰 appreciate that. Always to the last minute with us haha
Awwww Stefan. What a babe
I know isn't he so lovely
Unreal. Loved it.
Thanks bro 🤙
Glad that you got your brakes fixed, just a small point, it is best to do both sides at the same time for even wear and braking
Yeah we are gonna get the other one fitted this week. It still had a good 6mm left on it, but as you say might as well do both for even braking. We definitely learnt a lot that day in Italy, never thought we would have to do something like that ourselves lol, but a good learning curve
Bah nice biscuits 😋 that craiced me up. Oui oui indeed
Oui Oui :P
Great vid guys how you have not got 10,000 subscribers already I will never understand.
Awww thankyou so much 🥰 we really wanted to share something that might be useful for other people who consider doing this journey as well as just bringing people into our life even in the chaos. Thanks so much for watching and your kind words mean a lot.
The P-Unit cameo great too. How do they feel being on the RUclips 😂
The French border people were lovely, not so much with the late night Croatian one haha.
Congratulations guys! how stressful well done martha! Great video!
Thanks bro, yeah Martha is a trooper 🥰🥰
Keep on truckin💫🚙🚚🚛⏳
🚌🚐
I love long travels. It usually is the company that drives me crazy. Hehe
Glad you guys made it in one piece - loved the editing also!
😜 you know the effort lmao
Catching up with your video’s as well and watching the new ones. Beautiful place you were carrying out your repairs (Lake Iseo) and pity you couldn’t enjoy it…..
Thanks so much Glen 🥰🥰 man these videos feel like forever ago!
Thanks for the lovely video 🧡 ahhh I think my auto player mixed up the videos DOH!!! Think I'm back on track now lol I'm not gonna lie nearly cried with ya at points lol
🤣🤣🤣 for all we know we put them in the wrong order lmao
Happy dayys guys … well done … really confused with the spain -> french crossing .. we had nothing .. and also all docs say no need for test but hey ho… well done … and I loved the Irish Subs on the pap … good touch … enjoy the wonderful of Croatia …. Jealous as we head back to the UK …. Anywho .. take care guys and keep doing what you are doing … much love .. x
Yeah everyone we've spoken too said their border was unmanned and we purposefully went the tiniest mountain road we could assuming no-one would be there haha, just unlucky I suppose, but the guys were super lovely so happy to oblige :) we found out just before we got to Croatia there are super strict on wildcampjng lol, so fingers crossed no big issues with that, would be just our luck haha. Thanks guys, much love to you too xxx
@@phillyandkeely yeah we were just speaking to our neighbours here just before Calais and they happened to mention about the wild camping issues … good luck guys … don’t say you are wild camping .. say you are running an Aire but no-one else turned up yet :)
🤣🤣🤣 will have to give that one a go
great vlog guys, stay safe.
Thanks Lee, trying our best lol. Martha is booked in for a garage on Thursday, so hopefully she is all good in the hood.
It takes up tp 16hrs to cross Texas by itself and I’ve done without stopping 😮 rough trip but the scenery changes so it’s interesting
I imagine every state in America to feel like it's own country full of diverse eco systems and scenery. Would love to visit some day.
Wow can’t believe you changed that brake pad with just that guy on the phone?!? Crazy what an amazing achievement to get there in one piece!
🤣🤣🤣 that was an achievement for sure!! He was a legend, our go to van query guru
@@phillyandkeelylove your channel guys am hooked! Hope to see you on the road:)
@@charlie_robin thankyou ❤️❤️ always happy to meet people on the road
I’m late to the party because I’m bingeing all your old videos but I remember as a kid that we drove for 15 hours with just bathroom and food breaks. We were very delusional! 😂
🤣🤣 that would make anyone delusional haha. Thanks for taking the time to catch up on old videos 🥰🥰
@@phillyandkeely it got us to a coast for a swim so very worth it! ♥️
Overlander Sophia ❤ shoutout.
I cannot even with you two and ur banter. "Put er feet on tha dash!" I love u guys... what true crime are u listening to. I LOVE true crime stories.
We haven't found ones we super love yet, so if you have recommendation then please throw it our way!! Some peoples accents are really annoying hahah
Have you listened to the Lovecraft investigations pod casts 🤣 I had to turn it off when our delivering at night scared the shit out of me!
No, but now I'm gonna look them up! Maybe only for day time trips
@@phillyandkeely definitely! The background noises in the shadow over innsmouth is creepy as hell.
Y’all missed an opportunity to name this channel..... Traveling Buns😂
🤣🤣🤣
Philly the mechanic can do it .
💪
Nava Nava Na nava navigation ... omg I am so dead at this alllllll. Literally wetting myself, but not like keely. Bladda blada bladda bla....
I knew you would appreciate our decent into madness!!
Hey, what happens if you need head home for an emergency. Will have you have to fly and leave Martha seeing as your not technically allowed in the schengen for another 80ish days?
That is exactly what would have to happen lol. We wanted to have one day left for an emergency blast back through, but alas that did not happen. So fingers crossed no emergencies before December lol!
