Hey Keith, sounds like you’re on the road to a life of adventure. We’ve seen a few Land Rover conversions and they look awesome. Also what a place to live and work. Scotland has a very special place in our hearts. It really is a place like no other… or it is to us 😍. Please let us know if there’s any questions or anything we can help with mate 😎. Safe travels 🤙🏽
Oh Kay 🙈🤣… it’s more than likely that went down 😂. We love to make up words that don’t exist lol. Think what the editing is like if that slipped through 🤪
Thanks 🙏. Really happy it was of some use for you. What type of budgeting are you looking at and we can certainly see how we can help or make a video around the topic. It’s a great life full of exploring and adventure 😎🤙🏽
We did have plans of going to Europe for winter, but Old Gertie had a few van issues. So we didn’t fancy breaking down in Europe. Now spring is here it won’t be long before Europe is too hot for Frank our Frenchie 🤣. Bless him he’s already panting in a slightly warm van at the moment. So we’re looking at autumn/winter this year. Winter sunshine would be awesome.
@@TristandKez Right sir I invite you for solo hicking trip. Thank you very much for replying to the comment. Whenever you start a short solo trip of 4-5 days, Moses Peak is a must. It is a 5300m height۔ from the top of moses pea which you can see the views of the K2 world second highest peak in the world, Nangaparbat, K6 k11 and K 12 views in one frame. best time from May to October. This is a family tracked.its open Zone, one did not need a trekking permit or have to pay Royalty fee to climbed this Mountain tower
Thank you guys very helpful, im in the middle of selling my house and then buying a van to live in full time..ive been doing my research for a few months so i love all the information i can get... im looking forward to my first breakdown crisis in the middle of nowhere 😂😂
Hey 👋🏽 thanks for dropping us a comment. Awesome to hear and what an exciting time. Do you know where you’ll head first? We’ve had a few breakdowns 🤣. The best one was on top of a hill covered in snow 🤪. It’s all part of the adventure 😎🤙🏽. If there’s any questions we can help with, just let us know.
Hi, il be starting my journey off in Wales as that's where I'm from and for peace of mind if I have some big problems il not be too far from home lol then Scotland and I'm planning to travel to spain in January next year....obviously I have no idea what I'm getting myself into but I'm excited for it 😂
@MrWelsh1 We are buzzing for you mate. Wales is such a beautiful place. We never explored it till we had our old van. We have a bunch of places we can share with you if that’s helpful. Although you might be more of an expert than us 😂. Also BritStops is a good backup for us. Spain in January sounds like a brilliant idea. We were in the UK and had some glorious days in Scotland but also got frozen out of our van and had a few other van issues 🤣. We’re hoping to do the same and chase the sun, or at least not freezing weather lol. We have learnt so much in our travels and full timing on the road so any questions just let us know.
I won't get a van for possibly another 2/3 months as I need to sell the house for the funds, but il definitely keep in touch with you guys and il probably even create a channel on here too, il need help with that in the future also 😂 all I can say about wales is head all up the west coast of Wales its beautiful. I'm from the south in Newport... avoid this place its a shit hole 😂 il be back in touch in the future. I hope you both have an amazing time and hopefully no more break downs or dramas haha
@MrWelsh1 very exciting. Do you have a van in mind or you crossing that bridge when you get there 😎. We love being by the coast and done some of the west coast. We also love the mountains too 😍. Tend to stay away from towns and cities as you can imagine. We started our channel to share our travels with family but a couple of years on we’re still doing it with more information to share. It’s a great way to look back over your travels and have them documented. Any questions on RUclips (I know we’re not experts 🤣) just ask. Likewise with any other vanlife questions. We have more info on our website, if that’s any help… Thanks mate and we hope everything goes to plan and you love hitting the road 😎🤙🏽
Great video! Could you recommend good resources on how to choose a van, what budget is needed to buy one etc? Also, how do you deal with things that require a fixed/permanent address? Insurance, registering with a GP, mail, etc? Thank you :)
Hey, we don’t have any resources I’m afraid. We’re always happy to help and answer any questions you might have. With an address you could ask a friend or relative to get mail sent to theirs for you. In terms of picking a vehicle I’d think of the following How much money do you have Do you want to buy or convert What do you want you want from having a campervan/motorhome How long do you want to go away in it Do you want to live in it full time Where do you want to go What activities do you want to do with the van Do you want to be able to work from the van How much electricity are you likely to consume What devices will you need powering How do you cook or eat out How many people will be using the van How many pets will you be taking in the van Do you want something fuel efficient or don’t care as you won’t travel far Do you want onboard toilet and shower Do you want a fridge There’s lots more questions but we’d start there. Think about what you want from the vehicle and how you’re going to use it on trips. Everyone’s different and have different needs. We hope these questions will help kickstart your search.
Hey Yvonne, awesome we have a video coming out soon on our solar panel and power station setup and what they can do. Is there anything specific you’d like to know and we can look to add it in. Keep your eye peeled 😎. Thanks for dropping us a comment 🤙🏽
@@TristandKez -oh hi xx thanks for the interest x I just wondered if it's worth getting solar fitted ? I have a leisure battery with split charger and a 1500 w inverter also have solar panel as you do. I also have 2 power packs ( a Bluetti 600w and and an allpowers 300w ) I think I could be discribed as all the gear but limited idea 😂😂 thanks again xxx
Hey Yvonne, we can look at adding that into a video. I think we’ll do a few on solar as it’s a big topic. Especially when looking at fixed and portable solar 😎
Hey Marcus, thanks for dropping us a comment. We have an address we can get mail sent to. But these days we hardly get any mail through the post. Most things are online for us.
Hi Shan, great question. Our T5 was a low top and we could get under all height barriers. But it wasn’t a pop top so we were bent over a lot moving around the van 🤣. Old Gertie on the other hand, can’t park in so many places but being able to stand up is a freedom we’d never change 😎. Hope that answered your question. Let us know if you have any others 🤙🏽
Ahhh I’ve been trying to balance the levels. But there seems to be a huge difference between the headphones we use for editing and computer and phone speakers. Will have a look at this weeks video for sure 👌 😎🤙🏽

Great vid guys really useful information thanks Dave n Jo
Thanks guys, always appreciate your comments 😎. Hope you guys are doing great this week 🤙🏽
Great tips, a vid on budgeting to get started would be great! As my partner & I (with our 6 month old) are thinking of switching to van life.
Thanks 🙏. Really happy it was of some use for you. What type of budgeting are you looking at and we can certainly see how we can help or make a video around the topic.
It’s a great life full of exploring and adventure 😎🤙🏽
Great stuff guys! Vital information.
Thanks Ben. Hoping sharing our knowledge and experience can help others out if they’re thinking of stepping into van life 😎🤙🏽
@@TristandKez Do you guys have no plans to head to Europe in the van?
We did have plans of going to Europe for winter, but Old Gertie had a few van issues. So we didn’t fancy breaking down in Europe. Now spring is here it won’t be long before Europe is too hot for Frank our Frenchie 🤣. Bless him he’s already panting in a slightly warm van at the moment.

Perfect timing! We are buying our van next month and heading off with our Frenchie as well
Awesome 🙌🏽 I bet you must be buzzing 😎

How long do you want to go away in it

What activities do you want to do with the van
Do you want to be able to work from the van
How much electricity are you likely to consume
What devices will you need powering
How do you cook or eat out
How many people will be using the van
How many pets will you be taking in the van
Do you want something fuel efficient or don’t care as you won’t travel far
Do you want onboard toilet and shower
Do you want a fridge
There’s lots more questions but we’d start there. Think about what you want from the vehicle and how you’re going to use it on trips. Everyone’s different and have different needs. We hope these questions will help kickstart your search.
Great recommendations !! Yes i would love a vid on solar and power ! Its my nemesis lol x x😊

How do you guys deal with your mail? For someone who's constantly moving it will be hard to get thrm no?
Who gets actual mail these days?
Hey Marcus, thanks for dropping us a comment. We have an address we can get mail sent to. But these days we hardly get any mail through the post. Most things are online for us.
The uk has the most crap internet tbf. I always forget when we come back how shit it is. Even in or close to big centres. It’s awful
Yeah it’s fun finding out if you can get internet where you’re staying 🤪. Even with the best planning we’ve struggled at points…
What are your views on high top vs low tops?
Hi Shan, great question. Our T5 was a low top and we could get under all height barriers. But it wasn’t a pop top so we were bent over a lot moving around the van 🤣.
Old Gertie on the other hand, can’t park in so many places but being able to stand up is a freedom we’d never change 😎. Hope that answered your question. Let us know if you have any others 🤙🏽
Don't need background music
Ahhh I’ve been trying to balance the levels. But there seems to be a huge difference between the headphones we use for editing and computer and phone speakers. Will have a look at this weeks video for sure 👌 😎🤙🏽
