- We quit full-time vanlife and move to Spain! We've been on the road in our motorhome for over a year and in that time have travelled to the States and Canada before travelling into Europe.
We've bought a house in Spain and are now moving to Spain and bringing our motorhome with us. Is this the end of vanlife for us? We give you our thoughts and share our journey from the UK to Spain as we head to our new house in 3 days!
We take the overnight ferry on Brittany Ferries from Portsmouth to Caen as we set off on our Spanish adventure.
Are you considering moving to Spain? We show you our journey and talk about the future of our channel.
We want to hear from you; would you like to see more of our life in Spain? Please let us know in the comments .
We stay in a Camping Aire in France on the first night and a Park 4 Night location in Spain on the second night.
We are a British couple who travel in our Swift Kontiki Motorhome. Gary retired after 39 years in the British Army last year and since then we have been on the longest roadtrip!

Morning guys 🤗 thank you very much for the lovely comment, glad you found us. All the best Julia and Gary ❤️
I've just subscribed to your channel simply for the comedy value. This was the 1st of your videos I've watched. I was chuckling at Gary's comment about unhooking his a**e from the seat 😂. Look foward to watching more. Good luck with your move xx

Hi Susan, thank you so much 🥰 so glad you're enjoying the channel, see you on the next vlogs 💕
Hello you two, I'm Paul from the UK, ex motorhomer and ex Spain resident so your videos are double bubble enjoyment factor. You two are great, make me and my other half laugh so much, love to you both and your new chapter in Murcia, oh and by the way, even we all love your motorhome adventures I believe your viewers are more interested in you ❤❤❤
Hi Paul, what a lovely comment, thank you so much 🤗 We're really glad you're both enjoying the channel and you enjoy the laughs, we're slowly settling into our new house and really enjoying the Murcia region. Thanks for leaving such a nice comment, lots of love Julia and Gary ❤️
Please tell us a bit more about the process of moving to Spain. That might be really useful for a lot of people.
We will do then, we're just in the process now so hopefully we can give some real insight on how to do it 🥰
We're in the process of thinking about doing exactly what you've done. We love our motorhome so much but also need to buy a base. Your video was so informative and fun to watch! Thank you 😊
So glad you found it useful 😍 it's a really difficult decision when you consider getting a base, but we hope you find what you're looking for all the best Julia and Gary ❤️
Hi guys
Just discovered you both and had a catch up on your previous vlogs.
I hope you continue to vlog one way or another, you are both so positive and happy a joy to watch. We emigrated to Oz but came back to the UK, we miss the sunshine mainly, so don't blame you heading to warmer climates. We are similar age to you guys, and like to show people life is for adventures and living. Thanks guys 👍
Hi both 🤗 thanks for checking us out and the lovely comment ❤️ Gary grew up in Australia until he was about 12 so knows it well. We both love the warmer climate and being able to get out in the garden more. We will check you guys out as well, all the best Julia and Gary 💕
Sorry to hear your storage possessions got ruined I have experienced the same problem and ended up throwing almost everything away. Anyway be positive and enjoy your next chapter of life. Good luck.
Hi 👋 thank you so much ❤️ it's horrible having to throw most things away but we are managing to keep buoyant as we feel so lucky to have a home we love ❤️
Hi! What a great vlog I’ve just subscribed, you two are like a breath of fresh air. I’m laughing with you as if I was there with you ! Hope all goes well in Spain, I live in France the best move we ever made, we just love our lives here ❤️🇫🇷
Hi Sarah, thank you very much, glad you enjoyed the vlog and great to have you with us 🥰 We're really enjoying the house so far and we really love Spain. Warmest wishes Julia and Gary ❤️
Hi guys great vlog Happy birthday Julia 🎉🎉🎉please carry on the vlogs doesn’t matter what they are you two just make me laugh 😂😂😂
Good morning 🤩 thank you so much for your lovely comment and constant support, so glad you enjoy the channel, lots of love Julia and Gary ❤️
I stumbled across your channel only today and what a great couple you are. You made me laugh and giggle all along the way 😄 I had to subscribe and hope you will carry on with your videos. If you need a company to register your motorhome in Spain, I can recommend David from Specialist Vehicles in San Javier. He did the whole job of importing my caravan from the UK to Murcia (change of residency), getting it ready for the inspection and all the paperwork involved.
Hope you will enjoy your new life in Spain. It´s a lovely country to live in and to explore by van x
Hi, thank you so much for the lovely comment ❤️ We are working with our lawyer to to the change of residency for the van but really appreciate the contact details. So glad you found us and are enjoying the channel, all the very best Julia and Gary ❤️
Congratulations on your new house. Not to many can do full time van life forever. Hope you had a good birthday and your cold gets better. That gate is stupid what if it was a emergency. Maybe the sensor was out . Have a good day. RIP Keith❤
Hi, hope you're doing well 🤗 you're so right about the barrier if there was an emergency, would have been completely stuck if it was outside of their working hours. Thanks for the well wishes, we do love the house but definitely want to keep the van if we can because we absolutely love being on the road as well. All the best Julia and Gary ❤️
It's been fab following you both . Good luck in the new house and I'll be here waiting for your next vlog xx
Ah thank you so much for being such an amazing supporter 🥰 we're so glad you enjoy the channel, lots of love Julia and Gary ❤️
Good luck to you both in your new home.
We are very new to your vlogs and absolutely love your sense of humour. We loved your adventures in the MH (we are very new to motorhoming) and will take inspiration from your adventures in france.
We will continue to follow your new life in Spain xx
Hi Dawn 🤗 so glad you found us and enjoyed our travels, if you have any questions about motorhome life just let us know, always happy to help if we can. Safe and happy travels, warmest wishes Julia and Gary 💕
Thankyou xx

New subscriber here as we are looking to move to Spain also. I hope you keep your motorhome so we can follow you in your new life.

Hi both, good to have you onboard. We're just settling in here at the moment and going through residency but we're hopeful that we get to put our van in Spanish plates, we'll definitely do more vlogs on what happens as we go along though. All the best to you both Julia and Gary ❤️
Looking forward to watching your new adventure. Wishing you every happiness in your new home x

Thanks you two.Take care and all the very best regarding residency for Spain.
Ah thank you so much Phil, going through the process now so hopefully be sorted soon 🥰
Hi guys we did the same but now after 4 years in Spain we have decided to sell up and go back into a motorhome.....the heat in July and August is to much....we brits live the seasons....but happy adventures guys 😊
Hi guys, hope you have a fantastic adventure, we're hoping to keep our van and do a bit of both. It's definitely hot in the summer, we don't have aircon in the van so felt that in the summer in the States last year 🥵 Good luck to you ❤️
Good luck in your new home but...don't forget all your friends out here and keep the videos coming whenever you can!
Hi both 🤗 thank you so much for the lovely comment and support, warmest wishes Julia and Gary ❤️
Awesome vlog. That gate 😂😂😂😂😂. Hope A New Lufe in the Van will do more in the very near future. ❤❤
It was a comedy of errors for sure 🤣🤣🤣❤️💕
Aww wishing you all the best in your new home in Spain. I’ve really enjoyed all your vlogs. You’re such a lovely couple, that barrier clip was hilarious. I think videos on what it’s like to live in Spain would be really interesting and any future trips in your van. Thanks for taking us along with you. Your new pad sure beats Woolwich, look forward to seeing you on here sometime in the future after a much deserved rest take care xx
Ah Jacqui what an absolutely lovely comment ❤️ we're so glad you found us and have enjoyed our adventures. We'll definitely do some Spain vlogs and we hope you enjoy them just as much... you're so right about it being a bit better than Woolwich,🤣 lots of love Julia and Gary 💕
Happy Birthday and Congratulations on your new home!
Thank you so much 😍❤️
First time watching you. Do you follow Expawers? They live in Andalucia but also do vanlife. They recently got a new van from Germany but to register the van to their address in Spain they had to strip it back to nothing as there are strict rules in Spain for campervans being imported. I don't wish to wee on your strawberries but please check the rules and regulations. Best wishes with your move and new life in Spain. 😊
Hi, thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. We haven't seen the Expawers but will take a look, but they sound like they bought and registered, we are changing residence, which is a different route...we hope it's far more simple...time will tell 🤣❤️
Congratulations ! Would be lovely to learn about your move to Spain and Spanish life x
Morning 🤩 thank you so much for the feedback, we will definitely look to do some Spanish content, have a wonderful day Julia and Gary ❤️
We're still laughing at you two at the barrier of the Aire. 😂 Been there, done that too. ❤️
@@HighlightsofourTwilights oh my God we were so chuffed to get out of there 😂😂 hope you guys are having an amazing time and no issues arising 🤗❤️
Aww so happy for you Both finding your new forever home.
Well Thank you for making me LOL!! I was in the gym watching your vlog and headphones in but when you got locked in the aire for the 2nd time the swearing 🤬 and laughing just made me LOL I looked around but everyone has headphones on thank goodness 😂😂😂. You guys are awesome 😂❤😂❤
🤣🤣🤣 can imagine the gym scene 🤣❤️ Glad it gave you a good laugh 🤩 we're really happy with the house, although we do love the van as well, not long until your full time adventures now, so exciting for you both ❤️ Thanks for watching and being so supportive 💕
Happy Birthday. Congratulations on your new life in Spain ❤
Ah thank you so much for your lovely comment 💕
Brilliant as always. Belly laughing at the barrier and shit in the bed 😂. Hilarious. So sorry that so much of your treasured things ruined by mildew. Glad to hear that we will still see you blogging though even if not in a van. I have a few questions for your Q&A though so may pop you an email. I started following a few motorhomers but you 2 are the only ones I rush to watch your next vlog asap. Absolutely loved following your journey , you are both a joy . Thank you for the laughter, the smiles and great content ❤
H Saffron ❤️ what a lovely comment, thank you 💕 Yes please do drop us an email @ anewlifeinthevan@gmail.com we will answer all your questions on the Q&A. Glad the barrier gave you a laugh...even we were laughing watching it back 🤣 lots of love to you both Julia and Gary 💕
A very happy Birthday to You Julia, best wishes from Scotland 🏴 to You, and good luck on Your new adventures!,
Bruce and Linda 😎🍻, mistako!, classic 🤣.
Hi both 🤗 thank you so much ❤️ I reckon we can start a trend with mistako 🤣🤣❤️
Happy birthday gorgeous …have a fantastic time .. loving your channel.. might pop and see u next time i am in Spain ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much ❤️ Be lovely to catch up at some point 💕💕
Hi yes keep going love your channel U2 make me laugh. Have a wonderful life in Spain hope to see you again soon. God bless Gary.
Ah thank you so much for being such a supportive subscriber, we really appreciate your lovely comments Gary 💕
Happy day you were born! 🥳 Was this video recorded in May? My birthday is in May also. Sorry you are sick, and hope you feel better soon! Well, that was frustrating to not be able to get out!!😮 I can not tell you how many times I have heard this same story about going back and getting your stuff out of storage. So sad. Enjoy your new home, and I guess you now are "A New Life in Spain" 😄- Michelle
Hi Michelle 👋 yes I'm the end of May and Gary is the beginning... he's a Taurus and I'm a Gemini...I wonder which end of May you are? It was horrible to see everything ruined, we're nearly through sorting it and we are so grateful for the house though ❤️ Thanks for your lovely comment and wonderful support 💕
@@anewlifeinthevan I am end of May and also a Gemini 😄
A fellow twin 🤩❤️
@@anewlifeinthevan 🤩
Happy Birthday Julia! 2nd times the charm with that barrier! 😂
Ah thank you so much ❤️ definitely second time's the charm with that barrier 🤣🤣❤️
Love watching you two - so full of life and cheer - just what we need 🥰 Could we ask - how did you go about the Spain Residency conundrum? We tour Spain each year - (keeping to the Schengen rules 🙄), but often wonder about owning a property out there. Looking forward to all your future vlogs - whether in your new home or touring. Enjoy! ❤
Hi 👋 thank you so much for the lovely comment ❤️ So, we are going through our lawyer for residency, things are less complicated for us as I (Julia) have an Irish passport. That's not to say we wouldn't have done it anyway but we believe it is more straightforward....will need to let you know as we are still going through the process. We will do a few vlogs on the topic when we have a better understanding ourselves. Warmest wishes Julia and Gary ❤️
So happy for u , please do let us know the process of moving to Spain is it easy it difficult to stay in the country costs and overall exsperience please keep ur channel going ❤
Hi Jenny 👋 thank you for your comment and support, we will look to do a variety of Spain related vlogs in the future 💕
You would not believe this . Same thing in St Omer this morning , barrier wouldn't lift , wouldn't answer the phone and ferry was at midday . Why ? Did eventually get out and get to the ferry but didn't half sweat .
Oh God I bet you did sweat 😅 what a nightmare, definitely worse if you need to make a ferry!! Not sure what's going on, maybe we didn't go near enough to the barrier on entry...glad you made the ferry 😌🥰
We got stuck in an aire and after waiting for over an hour for someone to come and rescue us we took matters into our own hands. With the help of the other guys also waiting to get out we unbolted the barrier, lifted it up, drove through then out it back! 😂 Be good to know where you stored your things as we are about to put our stuff in storage (including my commissioning scroll) and go full time. Happy birthday 🎉
That is a brilliant solution to the barrier being down 🤣🤣🤣 So we stored in a Lockup between Portsmouth and Chichester, is that the area you are considering? We are working with them now for a resolution so won't name them publicly but if you are in that area please email us @ anewlifeinthevan@gmail.com and will let you have the details. All the best Julia and Gary ❤️
No, we are near Bristol and are planning on using a combination of long term and short term storage. The long term will be in wooden crates in a warehouse so fingers crossed. I can’t believe how expensive storage is. That’s the business to be in! Sorry your stuff was ruined, it must be heartbreaking 😢
@rachelbrastock5454 ah ok, I have used storage in Yeovil a few years ago that was excellent, really good containers and a fair price, they were called Somerset Storage, my stuff was in perfect condition after storing for a year a few years back 🥰
I hope your motor caravan is one that is straightforward to register in Spain. Apparently there are two types, easy and almost impossible. 🙂 Good luck settling in.
Hi David, yes we've heard that, we've still got to go through it so time will tell, fingers crossed it's the easy way 🥰
Congrats from Pacific Palms RV resort.Spain is a beautiful place.
Hi 🤩 we loved that place! Thank you so much for the comment 🥰
Keep on laughing, your very cheerful attitude is really good and the first part of this video made me laugh so much,are you going for residency or just doing the 90 days there.?I've not been back to Spain since covid started and everybody had to leave, I used to do the 6 months winter time there and the 6 months summer time back here in the UK. I really miss that, you two take care and from this old veteran keep on laughing.
Ah thanks very much Phil 🤩 we're going for residency so will be based here full time from now on. Such a shame you can't do the 6 months back and forth anymore, but hope you can get back to Spain at some point. All the very best Julia and Gary 🥰
Good luck guys ❤
Thank you so much Tony 🥰
Happy birthday both x
Thank you so much ❤️💕
Happy birthday xx
Ah thanks Gary ❤️
I once went to a conference that was held in a Mercury hotel in a German town. At the end of the second day I was settling up at the front desk when their phone rang. It was someone stuck at the barrier on the way out of the underground car park. I could see them on the CCTV screen and was amused to see that it was one of my friends. He explained that the barrier wouldn’t work and they suggested various things but none of them worked. All the time the queue behind him was getting longer and longer. They then asked him to come up to reception for another ticket. The queue continued to grow. He hurried up, got the new ticket and went back down. Still no luck and one of the receptionists went town to see if they could sort it out. Within seconds the barrier was up and they were away. I checked out then took my time going down to get my car to allow the frustrated queue to disperse. Next time I saw the friend I asked him what the man had had to do. He told me it was simple, he had stopped too far away from the barrier. He had moved 20cm closer and the barrier opened straight away.
🤣🤣🤣 we love this story!! What a nightmare for your friend but must have been funny when he realised 🤣❤️
@@anewlifeinthevan It was funny to watch.
@davidmatthews3093 I bet 🤣
Another hilarious video! Think you did well at staying semi calm during the barrier debacle 😂 Look forward to your travels in Germany, that sounds great 😁 So sad all your photos etc were destroyed, hope you managed to scan most of them😢🤗
We've just booked a ferry i think with the same company you went with. Was it ok?
Keep us updated with what you're up to, hope you're settled in now and have managed a swim! ❤
Hi both 🤗 hope you're doing well. The ferry was actually really good, we slept overnight and then went straight to the van, didn't see what the ferry was like but it was so easy 🤩 We finally managed a swim 🤣 although it's not as easy as we thought to look after a pool!! Thanks so much for watching and being so supportive, glad you enjoyed it, warmest wishes Julia and Gary 💕
@@anewlifeinthevanthanks, that's good to know. We should probably do the same, go straight to bed and leave exploring the boat for the return trip 🫤
Glad you finally got in the pool. Looking after it will keep Gary busy 😂
@@narrowboatpuravida you're not wrong .. he's having to spend so much time on it 🤣❤️
😂😂 mistake ,we are currently in France and my husband speaks like Rene from Allo Allo
🤣🤣🤣 ha ha how funny! Have a brilliant time ❤️
I hope you don’t mind me asking but we wanting to move to Spain in 18 months and I’m curios to know why it’s better for you to move over using the NLV option rather than with your European passport? I’m looking forward to watching your new life. X
Hi Shirley, we're not using the NLV route, but we would if I didn't have an Irish passport. Will know more about the process soon and hopefully do a video or two on the subject ❤
Oh Gary - that bum of yours is always eating 🍗😂😂
Enough already - give my bladder a rest 🥲🤣
Many happy returns Julia - your 6 months younger than me.
Anyway , congratulations on doing what many of us only dream about 🍾🏠🇪🇸
Although saying that, we are thinking about doing something similar - need advice.
Wonder what you’re doing now on this rainy British day - probably in your pool with your toads 😂
We will be in Spain backend of November and for December and would love to meet up with you both at some point 🤝
Keep vlogging please - we miss you when you don’t.
And remember the factor 30 - you lucky buggers 👙🩲🕶🌞🥂
Hi guys 🤗 his bum does seem to chomp down quite often 🤣🤣 Glad you enjoyed the vlog and when you're in Spain give us a shout to see if we're around ❤️ thanks for the brilliant comment and fantastic support as always, lots of love from us both 💕
Well done you two, glad you arrived at the house safe. So, are you living there on a permanent basis now ? If so I'm guessing you are there via the NLV route ?
Yes we will be here permanently, we aren't going the NLV route as Julia has an Irish passport, so just going through residency now 🤩🥰
My new best go to Word mistako😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
39 years in the Army, A house in Spain, how are living in Spain did you retire there living on a visa interested to know,
Thank you so much for your question...we will answer this on our upcoming Q&A vlog. All the best Julia and Gary ❤️
Aire barriers, always good for a laugh, we've been caught out a few times in and out . . . .
We've never been stuck in one and it was comedy of errors 🤣 Great Aire though... absolutely brilliant night's sleep 🥰
@anewlifeinthevan And then there were the Italian Toll booths. Got to one, large metal box talking Italian at us, no obvious slots, just a big red button. Big queue of Italian drivers behind us who are, of course, renowned for their patience (not). Queue gets longer, horns get louder, the Box continues to talk Italian, we look in vain for a green button (because you only push the red button in an emergency, surely?) . . . . Time passes and we eventually bite the bullet and push the red button. Barrier goes up, box says 'bonjorno' and we continue on our merry way, lesson learned!
Happy birthday Julia, congratulations to the both of you. You make us both laugh so much.
It would be great if you could do a Vlog on how to move to Spain and buy a house and also how to gain residence and so on.
Lots of love Julia and Gary
Mick & Tina ❤ x
Hi both, thank you so much, glad you enjoy the channel so much 😍 we will definitely do some vlogs about moving to Spain and life here, thanks for your input, lots of love Julia and Gary ❤️
What scream you two are.
Word of warning, Spain do not register Right hand drive commercial vehicles. Campers are in the same class in the country. Paperwork in Spain is a bloody nightmare.
Running out of fuel in Spain is a finable offence. Not so much as running out, but all the actions you may take afterwards.
In Spain the breakdown coverage is included with insurance. So they will be able to deal with getting you fuelled up.
What visa have you got? How long did it take?
Hi 👋 thanks for the lovely comment, glad you enjoyed it ☺️ thanks for the information, we will talk all things Spain in our next Q&A, all the best Julia and Gary ❤️
Like watching your vlogs we’ve been looking at Spain to move permanently but we’re put off by inheritance tax . Do you know how much it is there were were just looking at a place in murcia at the it’s the Isle of Man
Ps happy birthday
Hi Paul, thanks very much, glad you're enjoying the vlogs. There is a way around that, you can put it in your will that you want to be under British inheritance law, so you don't have to rule it out 🥰
Thank you 🤩 @@paulsmith3338
I’m guessing you must have a European passport to enable you to move permanently to Spain. Good luck to you both. X
Thank you, I do have one but we would still have done it through the NLV route if not. All the best Julia and Gary ❤️
--------------------------------------------------------------Can't you claim on storage company insurance?
Unfortunately not, but the storage owner has given us an amount that has helped, not covered it, but helped. We would be very careful if we ever used storage again though...! 🥰
@@anewlifeinthevan my old company Cadogan Tate run a very good removal and storage system!
@@timmardon6161 thanks Tim, we'll bear that in mind if we ever need it ❤️
Hey you two! How are you doing. This seems to be the only way left to get in touch with you, because the other numbers I have don't work anymore, including WhatsApp. Please let's establish a new WhatsApp contact. Our old numbers are still active and working.
Hi Joerg, hope you're well, Gary will message you later on, we will always stay in touch ❤️
hope spain is not to hot its 30 here in surrey
Morning 🤗 it's not too much hotter here, but we're definitely grateful for aircon!! 🤩
@@anewlifeinthevan I can’t imagine being out there without Aircon that does seem an essential. I do watch these places place in the Sun and I think these house is all Glass front might look nice but I think they get very hot by the look of your house very Spanish quite cool. How’s the pool going? Is he keeping it under control? Are used to sell hot tubs and tried to help people that had to keep it clean And check the water it is so important to check the water in hot tubs
where about in Spain near the sea have a great life why did you chose spain all the best colin
Hi Colin 👋 we're a little inland in Murcia 😍 we'll use your question about why Spain in our upcoming Q&A vlog all the best Julia and Gary 🥰
Hi there we are thinking about the same thing ourselves somewhere on the south coast of France or possibly Spain. Spain is cheaper we have Motorhome our self we are heading down to Spain in two weeks should be fun. I hope you enjoy yourself over there is this going to be your full-time homeI think Spanish where of life is cheaper than the way of life and definitely warmer all the best colin and Jane
@@anewlifeinthevan happy birthday
