This week we are talking about what we do for a living to have transitioned to full time digital nomads working on the road.
Are you looking for remote jobs you can do from a van and a way to travel cheaply, then van life is definitely a more affordable way to live for most, here's how we do it.
Van life isn't free though, especially as we still have a base here in the UK, so what is it we do to pay for long term travel trips?
For those of you still asking what exactly it is that Emily does to be able to work remotely from our self converted campervan, how to stay connected with wifi in a van or motorhome and what it's like to balance work and travel then hopefully this video will answer those questions.
As always thank you for watching, if you have any questions about this topic then drop them below and we will do our best to answer them if we can.
Follow us on our journey as we attempt to create a proper youtube travel series as we, two female travelers and vanlifers, attempt to travel across Europe in our rolling tiny home.

I travelled the world only speaking English because it made me engage with people more. In Colombia I went into a restaurant and the waitresses asked "Soupa?". Si. And then she gave me a choice. Two middle aged ladies on the next table pointed to their soups, I pointed to vegetable. Main course I heard coory, yes I love curry. One of the 2 adies asked me if I enjoyed my meal. "Bien, mucho bien."
But she tried to teach me a better word that I couldn't hear. 3 workmen on another table smiled and one wrote the word on a napkin. When I could read it I could say it. The waitress came and asked me if I enjoyed my food and I read the word on the napkin. We all laughed.
If I spoke Spanish I order my meal, eat and leave, but because I didn't I had a laugh with the two ladies, the 3 workmen and the waitress.
Body language, facial expressions and hand gestures took me round the world and helped me engage with everyone I met.
keep the content flowing and ignore the haters, you bring fun and laughter to a lot of people, very entertaining and informative, more power to you.
I don't think I've ever seen any haters on here ?
Hi girls! I’m so proud of you both for having a home payed off at your age and being debt free. Working hard so you can travel and live the dream! Regards
Thank you Shannon 😀
@@campervibe Well done for having your home paid off....
@@campervibe And don't you feel smug now the interest rates are rising! Well done for paying down the mortgage!
You guys do life just like swans - on the surface you look elegantly serene (in your own special way) but under the surface it’s been you both paddling like crazy to get where you want to be! Brilliant video - seems like everyone in a van wants to be a RUclipsr but in reality very few pull it off. Well done getting to where you are now and for taking us along with you for the ride ☺️👍🏼 x
Thanks you two, totally got us right as well 😂😀
I'm so glad that emily said she ate beans on toast for quite some time to save money. when i said exactly that last year a few people were quite sarcastically condescending and superior holier than thou dictatorial scoffing me but making cuts is essential to save and that's why I'm on track. Sunday greets back to the homelands
I'm retired and live between my home in Hawai'i and my RV in the US! So life is easy for me. But for those that need to work all your advise is so spot on! You both are so blessed to live your van lifestyle and to have each other! Life is good! Much Aloha till next time!🌈💞🤙
That sounds amazing 😀
Pummel the mortgage is great advice to people whether they are planning on van life or not.
Every penny that you pump into the mortgage is several pennies more off the total interest that you pay over the term of the loan. I know that it is harder now with massive gas and electric bills but reducing the mortgage is one of the best money savings that you can make if you can afford it.
🙌🙌🙌
Emily - there was a workplace study done here fairly recently that found in-office employees were productive for just about four hours so you're doing just fine with your four and your plus one (the hour, not the Lou). This was a great video especially the section on getting prepared in advance because it does look a lot easier to pull off than it really is. Don't be afraid of French. My French friends tell me that people like it when we try to speak their language (I love it when I get corrected by a native speaker...I always thank them.) Allez mes amis avec joie de vivre!!! Love you guys.
Thank you, that’s a good study to know about actually 😀
Planning ahead is the key to succeeding at everything. I admire what you are doing and do enjoy following your travels. Travelling and making content isn't easy, and most people don't appreciate just how much work actually goes into producing good weekly content. Stay safe and enjoy life.
Thanks Alice, it does take some time but we do love it
Hi Alice! I‘ve just found these guys- aren’t they fantastic?
You two are just lovely …. In person, and on screen. Loved seeing you both at camp quirky, with your talks, and you were so great in chatting to us, when you rounded the corner, looking for your friends. Another great video, honest and interesting, just love you both and wish you fun and happy traveling.
Thanks Clare, it was lovely chatting to you too, always nice to meet people in person. 😀
Being debt free is my and my wife's greatest achievement. It has freed us to have no money worries. Clever budgeting and financial skills and doing without paid off. The house is paid for and the car is twelve years old, in good condition, very reliable and paid for. We travelled the world and Europe for the last twenty years. You gave seriously good advice. I love the way you share your lives and give each other space, very important and where many relationships fail. Enjoy each other, the van, the pets, and the journey. ♥🚐
Thank you and thy is lovely to hear that you guys got it sorted as well 😀
I feel like I might be starting to sound like a broken record… but you two rock! Another corking video packed full of fun, information and a healthy dose of reality. There really isn’t any other channel like this one. You should both be so proud of what you’ve achieved and you deserve every minute of fun and enjoyment out of it. ❤️
😂😂 no not at all, glad that you are enjoying the vids so much 😀
I am an online teacher, i work in isolation as I live on my own, and have a dual monitor setup. Work hours become blurred and I end up working excessive hours so I can relate. I am also with EE and my mobile connection is just as good and somewhat more reliable than my sky broadband.
Great vid - well done!!
I really admire you two. You are both such capable, hard working and likeable people - well done & live the dream.
Great video girls, in a way i am jealous because i am 67, so the generation before mobile phones and internet, so there
was no chance of 'working from home' but your videos and travel are amazing and to be able to share that with the world
is fantastic, back in my day you just had a few travel writers that were lucky enough to travel around. and well done for getting things right and sorting out the finances before trying to go full time. oh, and Nice Dress Em. keep up the good work, and stay safe girls. xx
I’m of about the same age and agree that it wouldn’t have been possible years ago especially if you decide to have children so celebrate your freedom!
This is very true, the world has changed a lot and who knows what it will be like when we reach your age as well 😀
Hi Emily and Louise, great respect to you both. This honest video shows how well ‘grounded’ you both are. I have always enjoyed the great video direction and editing by Louise which is so much better than other Van lifers but didn’t appreciate how much it’s been a team effort to get to where you are today. Great forward planning. Have I missed an episode dealing with your power set up because this is clearly important to Emily? Definitely a great episode!!
Thank you, yeah lots has gone into it behind the scenes for sure, there have been a few vids about our power and when we upgraded to lithium and our solar as well 😀
I told people I met when I was travelling (staying in dormitories in hostels), "The Journey is not about the places you go, the things you see, or the people you meet, the Journey is what you discover about yourself. Every day it seems we have to overcome Hurdles, with no friends or family there to advise you, you have to deal with it yourself. You face problems you would never face at home, travelling is about how you grow as a person and the new skills you get to put in your social tool box". And you keep those skills for the rest of your life.
Emily speaking French was hilarious could not stop laughing 😂 you both are very funny, so keep them coming, so glad you made the changes in your lives to bring great entertainment every week. Looking forward to your next adventures abroad we’re ever that may take you. Best wishes to you both 😉👍
I don’t think I’ll ever be fluent 😂😂
That is difficult & requires a great amount of discipline to sit & work when you see all that beauty outside. Also to get a weekly show out. Varying content & all that editing, plus making it outstanding (always!).
Much admiration for you both!
You two make me smile, what a great balance you bring to each other, oh, and the tips are awesome too! Thx!
Hi Girls
Well done for getting to where you are now. Life is what you make it. We did very similar having started with nothing. We also worked stupid hours to pay off the mortgage and then built our van out. Love the way you come across as being financially stable, willing to help people without flaunting it. Good luck on your next trip. We are off to Morocco via Spain on Monday so if your heading that way, drop us a line. Think it would be a bit hot for AJ etc though. Good to see you at Camp Quirky the other week. Safe journey
Have a great time, yeah a little too hot this time of year for them but maybe another time though and thank you 😀
You're a little Dynamo Emily. I can see why you need all the snacks now. You make a great team you and Louise.
😀😀
I learnt my languages before the internet & apps but I went on a trip around Eurpe with our American Export Manager and he was amazed how much more productive we were & how much easier it was to get around because I spoke French & German with a smattering of Italian & Spanish. Just being able to stop & ask directions in those pre GPS days was a boon. That experience netted me the European Manager role, so the ability to communicate with locals is really valuable...
I bet that was amazing, not sure I could learn a language without an app mind so well done you
That was fascinating to hear and it's so good of you guys to reveal what you do... I think you will help so many people who want to try this kind of life 👌. Great advice... especially the advice to get everything sorted before you start the van life. I'm not surprised at all that your you tube channel is doing so well...you are the most engaging couple and seem perfectly matched 💕...and great humour 😁. Keep on trecking and enjoying what you do and so looking forward to seeing your trips in the future ✊💝🙏😘
Thanks Sally that’s lovely of you to say
Real life - you have covered everything that I have to deal with\think about. I am so glad you are able to adjust and still have the insight to fulfill what makes you happy. I bow to you guys.
It is a balancing act at times but totally worth it 😀
Really great honest advice, especially about starting RUclips early so many people think it’s easy but it’s definitely hard enjoyable work. Thanks again…
Much respect for putting the effort in way back and clearly with a joint effort and plan, not easy for sure and what you do now to sustain the plan may look idyllic and easy but like everything, its planning, right Em ? Ps don't apologise for a bit of reality and serious talk, these things are important to make dreams come true !
Always got to have a bit of planning 😀🙌
Brilliant vid, and very sound business advice!!! Although retired now, I've been `'employed`', and `'self-employed`', so can appreciate all the valid points that you make! It's a delight to watch your interaction/bubbly personalities, and wishing you good luck in all that you do!
Loved this lady's Good to hear how others do it. I'm so lucky I have a great seasonal job 3-4 months on 3-4 off. So that's when I plan My travels. When I finish my build that is been a year so far but my health has held things up a lot. Alls going well now and hope to be on the road this year 🤞 I admire you both and love following your journey
Glad it’s going well, and hope you are good 😊 that is a great way to work and travel 🙌
Emily's job is very similar to mine...but more on Admin & Finance, dealing with both internal and external "clients" and i do enjoy working from home when I can and also when I travel anywhere ..... YAY !
Hi girls you're such a lovely couple, so honest and down to earth, love watching your videos, keep up the good work xx
Omg I just love watching you both - you give me such a good laugh and are so much fun! Love the pros and cons! 💜
😀😀😀
thank lovely ladies for filling us in. B.x❤❤❤
Guten tag!
Great honest advice and I can see how much effort you both put into this, hence you deserve to do well. 🤗
Truth & Pitfalls has probably opened some people's eyes but best to find out now before you commit to living on the road. Well done girls.
Most definitely Phil 😀
I am so impressed with you ladies, I love watching your videos. And I love your sense of humor!
😀😀
Absolutely love following your little family. You always put a smile on my face. Well done to both of you for finding a way to have a fab life.
My van is nearly finished, can't wait to start travelling with my 2 gorgeous doggies.
Hope you enjoy it as much as we do 😀
I love you guys, you are truly living the dream , and living it so well. Keep going, and keep on taking us along for the journey.!!! Sending you guys so much love, happiness, strength and faith in the good future you deserve. ❤️🥰❤️
We will and thanks for coming along with us 😀
Thank you both for being so down to earth and honest. Well done xx
Very open, honest and informative. Thanks for sharing. Too many people nowadays want instant gratification and they want it NOW! without putting in the hard work required beforehand, so well done, both of you. Keep up the good work.
Yeah we notice that as well and another reason why we wanted to share our experiences 😀
Excellent video and insight into your setup. You girls have the best work ethic and attitudes whilst remaining so down to earth and lovely, you deserve every bit of your success.I have been in my new job a few months now and have just had confirmed that i can start wfh one day a week, its a start 😝
Enjoy and keep entertaining us you legends
🥳🥳 you got to start somewhere that’s amazing news and well done you also thank you guys
Great vlog ladies that's why it works for you both, your honesty to each other your subscribers and Emilys boss has enabled you to realise your dreams through your channel and van life. Keep up the good work looking forward to hearing the results of Rosetta Stone in the upcoming continental vlogs 😀 👍 😄
Well getting in there and poking around really helps as it is no use re Inventing the invented. Thanks for your thoughts.
I think the work from home culture is definitely going to make it easier for people to travel more whilst holding down their jobs, but I think your new lifestyle is a reminder that van life and travelling is not something you can do without an income. It's like off gridders. There is always a passive income, an inheritance or a stash of savings somewhere in the background supporting it because it really is impossible to live without money. It's great you've manage to keep together such an involved job and still live on the road. Magic!
This is all very true and why we wanted to share what we do to sustain it 😀
Your videos are a part of my week that I really look forward to thanks for all your hard work love all your stuff I am a solo traveller I am a fork lift truck driver so I do have a regular job but because I work 12 hour shifts I work a 3 week repeated shift cycle but in that 3 weeks we get 2 x 5 day breaks and a 4 day break plus 22 days holiday a year so I base my trips around my breaks and maybe need to use the odd days holiday but once a year I use 4 days holiday and go away and explore for 2 weeks keep living your dreams 😉
Sounds like you got a pretty good set up as well 😀
Thank you for your honesty. I loved my job as a Veterinary Assistant and my boss but the jealousy from a couple of my coworkers made life difficult. Now that I’m retired I can do what I want like watching you two on your adventures. 🥰
Fair play girls 🙌🏼
I can imagine if you haven't got a lot of money and with no steady income, it can be quite hard doing van life full time. It sounds like you two have got this all sussed out well done ladies. I did my first ever car Camp the other day and you two girls inspired me to do it thank you so much. Let's just say I need to do more research on camping in my car lol looking forward to more videos ladies.
😂 glad you went and done it though and here’s to many more car camping nights 😀
@@campervibe I'm hopso too I just need to do a few more modifications before I go out again 😅
Good advice in general, not just for van living!
Emily youre work could buy you a satelite phone for when you cant get a signal and handy for emergencies. Brill vlog . Stay safe you two x
You should be so proud of yourselves for having achieved so much at such an early stage in life. I finally got my camper age 56 in Feb 2022 but it was bucket list for me as I have incurable cancer and that spurred me on to finally get my ducks lined up!! A long trip abroad is out for me due to treatment, but there are loads no of places in NI/Ireland to explore so I’m not stuck at all for journeys. Maybe you will come here sometime - you would love it!!
I’m also interested in how you manage AJ and Summer. I’ve 2 dogs (18mth) but we haven’t ventured out with them yet very much. My partner is not a dog fan so I’ve probably more ground work to do with him than the dogs 🤣🤣🤣
Maybe me and dogs trips are best!! 🤣🤣🤣
That’s great to hear that you are having some adventures around your treatments 🙌🙌
We find it ok with AJ & Summer we just adapt what we do I.e. not loads of museums etc more hikes and city walks and views with dog friendly places but we love all that anyway
Hope you have some great trips over there 😀
Good for you! I'm so impressed by you, and many others, who at a comparatively young age have made an exciting and interesting life. Well done, long may you continue.
Thank you 🙌
You are such a great team. With your talents and hard work I think you'd make a success of anything.
Interesting video to learn more about how you manage to get by with life on the road. Emily, do snack companies never send you stuff to taste? Keep up the good work you two, look after yourselves and your two babies when out on the road.
No and I just don’t know why, maybe I would cost them too much money 😂
Hi guys wow fantastic vlog great to see you both happy and enjoying your travels can’t wait to see the next vlog Steve b 🇬🇧 👍
Fabulous video again and a great insight into your lifestyle and the nuts and bolts of how you make it happen.
Hi guy's great vlog and thanks for Sharing this 😊
Looking forward to the next vlog
Be safe guy's 👍
I have a campervan and I would find it difficult to constantly be filming, getting the drone out , doing social media etc etc rather than just enjoying the experience. I am not on any social media apart from watching stuff on RUclips and find I'm much more relaxed in life because I'm not constantly checking stuff that doesn't matter in my life. I fully understand you have to do it and I really appreciate it because I enjoy your channel. Keep up the great adventures folks. Love from the Highlands.
Hello spot on with the advice , we sold up in the UK and France and fulltime now.
Been living in a motorhome for years, but now nearing 70 years old it's time to travel even more, it keeps us young.
As for learning a language, it's a great idea.
I would say French is a main one to learn( not because I speak French ) but like English it's used by many people throughput the world.
And many words the same but with an accent.
Great viewing, a touch of fresh air.
Cheers Mike, sounds like you are having a great time 😀😀
I am far from fluent but immersion is one of the best ways to learn once vocabulary and basic verb structure is learned. It's about patterns. Remember to say "Bonjour Madame" (Monsieur) or "Bonjour" with a bright voice whenever you meet someone before asking a question or making a statement. It is VERY polite in France. You could also say "Je prends" or "J'aimerais" un pain au chocolat. Bonne chance avec bon courage! Bises. You are always welcome to my village. Really lovely video... you manage to look at the camera as if you are looking at us. You conversational style is good to listen to.. Well done for sharing what works for yourselves.
Well done girls you's have it spot on enjoy
so i just want to get in a poke around a bit huh.................lol you two are nutters.............. happy days......... much love to you both
love your honesty x
Just shared this with my son as remote working really appeal’s. Cheers Richie.
🙌🙌
You two are so lovely, thanks for such good info, great work!
Great video, sooo useful. My husband amd I are starting to put things in place now for when we head off in 2028. So Exciting to even do the planning.
This is a HUGE vlog....super informative...and super-honest...thanks for sharing all this with us...I thought it was a ROSES Lol.... I had a job like Emily and made big bucks...now redundant and live on ONLY Social Security...I am super poor in the USA...having been in an industry that had NO retirement system even at a "C" level Executive for 45+ years.....I feel much more aligned with Lou trying to make a living out of something new...I actually walk dogs and take care of pets in my apartment complex at like $100USD a week...super Cheers girls!!!
Wow that’s so difficult and different to over here, hope you are enjoying the dog waking though that does sound nice 😊
Nice video guys a little something different
Thanks
Take care and stay safe
Your advice to clear your debt is paramount. Well said.
😀🙌
You are both so switched on and have such a special relationship living the dream. Fantastique.
I really enjoy your videos. You're both so real lol. I'm in Canada and our connectivity is the most expensive in the world, and we have appalling coverage. Once you're out of a City there's no more signal. Sucks! Lol
Oh wow really, that’s so mental how it changes like that from country to country right
Brilliant as ever
I just checked in during one of my "hair on fire" days, likened to Em, I am a Director of Operations and Information Systems. High Tech is insane and I do get lost in time zone changes often...snack bandit alarms can go awry at times :] I appreciated this vid because it does speak honestly to the fact that there are always "give and takes" to everyone's choices, but the life you dream is totally doable and its admirable that Em is equally vested in those who depend on her (personally and professionally). I've always told my teams that you can come to work in your PJs as long as you give me your best and meet the deadlines. Thank you for an enjoyable time-out gals, even though you weren't running around a campsite with a camera or capturing/sharing the wilds! Hola to the furballs and Fanny...til next time.
That’s really good and you seem like a good manager as well which also goes a long way for sure 😀
love your vids, you are both so funny and we love AJ and Summer we are getting a motorhome next year and are so looking forward to travelling into europe very good video editing
Wow!! Awesome videos girls! Thanks for all the info and tips!! And well done for getting where you are! xx
There's not much to say about you two, apart from your amazing managing your lives around travelling, cats, dogs and some great cooking I seem to rember, driving, filming, etc, etc.. So a big hats off to you both stay safe and stay friends have fun when you can :-)
Thanks Ian
This has made my day. Brilliant
27 seconds too late for me. Congrats.
Thanks June! 😀😀 and Raven, ya snooze ya lose! Lol, only joking, you were close!
I love your channel, you have a great ethos, you do not make it look over glamorous, and easy to do. This video should help a lot of younger people face home truths. Being retired I’m in a privileged position.
Excellent and informative video I agree with others that remote working is here to stay and far more acceptable than it ever was and very impressive how you both work together and Emily manages not to bury Louise under the patio! :-) Just kidding! you are a great team and that's why it works.. Ps pretty sure Emily you can connect up to two laptops and run one as your second screen, keep up the good work you two..
It is a surprise for sure, lucky she has hobbies 😂
That was a great vblog, very honest and interesting. Emily is obviously very good at her job and a real asset to the company. You complement each other really well. Keep it up ladies I love watching you. Stay safe x
LOVE this vid! Loving your travels aswell, I’m a fairly new subscriber (few weeks) so this ‘behind the scenes’ was great as I’d love to solo trip with my 7 year old Jack Russell - just trying to gain some confidence, I’m currently overpaying on my remortgage and have a small savings pot towards a van (no idea what/when etc) so all tips appreciated. Loving yours and Liam the Terribles channels and just watched your ‘live’ (not to me) and you mentioned him so I’m tickled! Anywaaaayyy.. I’m off to watch more vids… where to start/middle or end hahaha. Keep enjoying Norway and thanks for sharing your lives xx 😘
So your lunch hrs are 12 till 4, bloody hell 🤣 Only joking Emily. Hats off to the pair of you, can't understand people thinking everything is easy, it's bloody hard work. No one sees behind the scenes, never easy. Big up to the both of you, your both absolutely brilliant and amazing. Well done both, keep loving the life ❤
😂 normally yeh but when I’m home I work full time so we only had an hour 😂
@@campervibe lucky to have a hour really, you probably got to feed the pets, walk them, then maybe think about yourself. It soon goes. But in the end you got to look at the positives. Yeah snacks 😋 😂😂
Surprised that’s enough time for Emily’s snacks!
Haha only just about enough time 😂
Great video you are so sensible & together, that's a compliment! I agree that apart from diesel it's as cheap to travel as stay at home, 'cos of my dogs we don't go for city breaks & there's so many wonderful places right for all 3 of us. Great to bump into Emily & AJ & later Louise too at Camp Quirky, hope your next trip is a blast.
Thanks Susan 😀😀
I was always taught that it's rude to ask what somebody does for a living as it seems you're more interested in what you can get from them than in the person themselves. I spent the first year after I left the army living in a (badly) converted landrover 101 ambulance and it was generally not a good experience as I had not done any of the things you had to prepare for it. I think you've covered pretty much everything that I would have liked to have known beforehand. I've only just started watching your channel and I'll be honest what first attracted me was the two awesome smiles (2 girls.. one campervan video). I find your content refreshing and any video with both a dog and a cat in it has to be worth watching!
Stay safe and happy ladies (and give the pets a fuss from me)😊
Thanks Dave and glad you are enjoying the vids 😀
I have been watching your channel for several months now and I was wondering what Emily’s job was. This was very helpful. Thanks!
I was discussing this with the missis “How do they do it” lol. Fair play… A term I use is “I’m spinning plates” I’ve not long bought a VW T6 LWB camper van… We are planning on going round France in August for 3 weeks. Good luck the pair of you, love your videos… Best Wishes Neil 🏴
Thanks 😊
Awesome success story guys, this is extremely helpful and I'm sure inspiring to many others wanting to pursue the dream. X
Thank you and we hope so
Yep you girls have nailed it, I am the same here. Get the important things paid, then get on with what you really want in life..... Enjoy...
Well ladies, you never fail to amaze, surprise, entertain and inform me.
You deserve everything good in your lives and long may it continue.
Keep up the good work x
Thanks Rob 😀
Another brilliant video thanks for sharing xx
Hat’s off to you guys, You’ve done a great job to get where you are today. Long may it continue keeping us entertained on your grand tours which puts a smile on my face can’t wait for the next video 🤗🚐
Thanks Sarah, we hope it does too
Amazing insight into your lives, thank you for sharing, you two are a great team xxx
You could rig up a flatscreen monitor, that you could pull down while working HDMI to the laptop. When not in use fold it up to the ceiling. I’m sure you could rig that up Lou. 😂
What al lovely honest couple you both are you tell things as they are are you coming to Pembrokeshire in the near future love you guys
We hope so and thanks 😀
Man I love this life. Just me and the dog living our best life. He’s never known any other way and he’s an old man now. I don’t get lonely not ever. My biggest hassle is tool storage (not an entendre) 😊but you do have to make sacrifices if you’re going to make this work..I don’t get to go abroad really because I have to work so I travel to where the work is but I will…
That’s lovely to hear, glad you enjoy it so much you and the pooch 😀
Well done, you two! Some really good advice in this video and we're grateful that you pushed yourselves out of your comfort zone to do it. Keep on keeping on, as they say
Absolutely love you guys thank you for sharing it was very informative, your both amazing and always true to your word take care of each other 😊
Louise have you ever thought of selling your videos to different local tourism agencies? You can also sell aerial shots of farms and park ups. (Campgrounds for us) We have done festivals as well. My hubs and I do drone videography and I know quality vids when I see them. Your flying skills are good and editing is great as well.
Thanks Ellen, no she has not considered tht actually, could be something to think about
That was a really nice video and a lot of answers to the questions we probably all have. Do you rent out your house, you never said but it would make sense to provide additional income. Remote working has had a huge push as a result of COVID and more and more companies are realizing how well it can work for both employer and employee.
No we let family and friends use it and keep it an eye on it for us but we like to be able to come back to it whenever we want 😀
That's an interesting though, although renting out may be more of a hassle than it's worth: Here, authorities are beginning to look at extracting taxes from the rent from those people who rent out their properties. So, you'll have additional paperwork. As well as worrying about people not respecting your property as you, the owner would...
Keep up the good work and vids, love um
