First family adventure in our unfinished van | A road trip to Glencoe Scotland

  • We are finally travelling after lockdown in our self converted camper van called Safari, and exploring beautiful Scotland, hiking in Glencoe and rambling up past Loch Lomond as we make our way up to the Outer Hebrides.
    This is Crusoe's first adventure and our first trip as a family of three. There are lessons to be learnt, a few trials and tribulations, but for the most part travelling with our little man as he turns a whole nine weeks old has been nothing short of amazing and a real privilege.
    The van is unfinished, but we've got plans for the build to continue while we are on the road. Next week's episode we hope will be van build Episode 6 which will be in the Outer Hebrides of all places!
    Our new van is called Safari. Koti, our old, and very loved first self converted van, meant 'Home', and Safari means 'Journey', which feels very appropriate as we embark on this new chapter as a travelling family.
    So, let's let the Safari begin!
    We are the Newbys, John, Tara, and our two little boys Crusoe and Sawyer. We’re a family who are pursuing an alternative lifestyle, and after two years of full time travel we’ve taken root on an abandoned farm in Northern Portugal which we’re renovating into our dream off-grid homestead. We release new videos every Sunday sharing our story, and we’d love for you to be a part of it with us. Please remember to SUBSCRIBE if you haven’t already, it’s free and super easy to do and it helps us hugely.
    Thank you for being here. We hope that we can inspire you to Be Brave, Think Big and to Explore.

    What beautiful countryside my grandfather was Scottish. He worked his passage to NZ looking after horses on a ship that was taking them to the Boar war in Africa in 1900. A year later his parents followed, but his father died within sight of NZ of TB. Sadly my grandfather died, leaving my Granny, who had 6 children, my Dad was only 4 at the time. I’ve always wanted to visit Scotland, thank you for showing it.

      Wow Loris, what an incredible family history. Mine (Tara) is not too dissimilar as my family left the Uk for Africa in the early 1900’s and made their way across the continent by ox drawn cart! Thank you so much for being a part of our own journey, it means a lot to us. All the best!

    Hello friends, seeing all the expressions of tiny Crusoe is so cute. What an adorable baby he was and a pretty good traveler too, must be in the genes. I remember those baby poop explosions, LOL My daughter had one when she was Crusoe's size at a Chinese restaurant, I'm sure the other diners did not appreciate that, hee hee.

    I discovered you two (now three) while searching for smaller van builds and was instantly hooked. I'm looking to convert what would be considered a mini-van with a much smaller capacity than most of the builds out there, and have had difficulty finding examples of quality builds for smaller vehicles; seeing Koti was so inspiring. Your design layout and utilization was creative and thoughtful, thank you so much for sharing her with us; I'll be modeling my rig after her. :) I rarely subscribe to channels (which I did after the first video), and despise watching adverts, but happily do it to support you two. You make wonderful content, which I have binged, and I love how you love each other. Keep up the good work and can't wait to have all three of you in the States. Stay safe and adventure on.

      Hi Lucy, great to hear from you!! Thanks very much for joining us. Sounds like you have a cool van build project on going. Please do feel free to ask us any questions if you need to, any time. Koti was a great van and we loved every minute exploring in her, our new van needed to be bigger because of Crusoe, and we are really enjoying the adventure in It; but we do miss Koti, an excellent van. Please do let us know how you get on with your build, will you be documenting it? Thanks again for joining the adventure. :) 🙏👍🔨

      @@TheNewbys Thank you so much, that’s super generous. I will definitely be taking you up on that offer, I need all the help I can get. 🤗 First question in the series of many ... you had mentioned if you were to do it again, you would have used flexi solar panels instead of the hard panels; were the panels on Safari, Koti’s repurposed panels or did you discover something about the hard panels for why you stuck with them? (I guess besides the fact you can repurpose them. Ha.)
      Yes, I will be documenting the process and posting on YT and IG. My initial project will be a small SUV camper conversion in order to get across country comfortably, then it will be the van build. Dun-dun-DUHN! ☺️

    • @TheNewbys
      @TheNewbys  3 года назад +2

      Hi Lucy, COOOL!!! We will keep an eye out for your videos, good luck! Solar panels, interesting beasts. Flexi panels seemed like a good plan, but after further research It looks like they can crack over time, so we went with the solid panels, 240 watt so far with an option to add more. It’s a simple system and easy to install, just make sure you wire the battery first then into the controller, after that solar in to the controller and on. If you get the battery bit the wrong way around you can damage the battery or controller. :)

      @@TheNewbys I would recommend Iona and Mull if you have never been. NC500 route on the west coast offers amazing lochs, beaches and mountains. The bealach na ba road to Applecross. One of the best scenic roads in Scotland and there is a parkup not far from the top with amazing views and red deer. Loch Lomond - Balmaha has a lovely little harbour with lots of parking and possible parkups/camping in the area. Can walk up Conic Hill from the main carpark or follow the road along to walk up Ben Lomond. Glenfinnan viaduct and surrounding areas for camping and lochs. Loch Katrine is beautiful and offers great walks, views and tranquility. Plenty of parking in the area also. If you are heading to the top of Scotland you should visit Smoo Cave. Plenty of walks and sea views as well as camping. There is lots more... too many to mention.

      Hey Sarah and Lee! Really great to hear from you and thank you so much for your support. Yes, that water was VERY cold, but John insisted on getting into it because it was the very waterfall he and his family would swim in on their way to Northern Scotland as children. Wonderful to hear that you're heading up there soon, the Outer Hebrides are incredible. Where are you headed? We'd love to hear if you come upon any hidden gems, we have family on North Uist so will no doubt be heading up there before the end of the year too!
