    Lovely cushion cover, Ches. And yes, CUSHION cover - completely different than a pillow case!
    You could fill it with a coat/blanket/other item that you need on hand. That way your cushion is dual purpose.....

    Interchanging cushions and pillows is equivalent to confusing doors and windows. They're both openings in the wall. They share a lot of common ground. You could, theoretically, use them for interchangeable uses. I have previously opened doors to let light in. And I have climbed through a window or two in my time. No one mixes them up though. That would be absurd. A pillow gets covered with a pillow case and used exclusively on a bed. A cushion has a cushion cover and is usually found on a chair or sofa

    Hi Guys! I've thoroughly enjoyed following you since the whole North American adventure started. It's been fascinating to see how you do your research ( which you seem to have got better and better at as your journey has progressed), plan and deal with adversity when you must. I find the videos not only entertaining but interesting, informative and full of relevant information too. If you don't mind, I have a couple of questions. I believe you have mentioned that Sofia is a diesel Sprinter. If so, I'm presuming you haven't had a DEF system fitted and I was wondering if you had any issues driving a diesel van without a DEF system in North America. Were there any rules or limitations forced on you? Secondly, did you get a new 90 day travel permit for the US each time you re-entered from Canada and Mexico or is that one large travel area, similar to the Schengen Area in Europe? I tried to do some online research but the deeper I got into it the more contradictory the results became. Hoping you can help me out and looking forward to the next video!

    Ben, did you think about the possibility that your flat feet (your gait) is causing your back problems. I had the same or similar issues until I got a gait assessment and wore orthotics and my back problems disappeared. Something for you to look at.

    Hey guys, hope you’re all well! Glad you’re better again Ben.. get your move on lol, it’s good to get moving when driving.. I’m finding the same.. go Ben with the Facts! 👍👌.. I do love the look of the town also.. haha.. Ben in the craft shop😂😂... I have ceramic plates and cups in my shed.. it’s funny when they bash about as I’m driving. Wow, those Volcanoes 🌋 are worrying.. 🤯.. nice pillowcases though. Nice to see the ruins so close, I would have to have a look! I really don’t see why the two countries ban RHD vehicles.. bit strange though.. thanks for the info, never knew about the Darian Gap. Ooh, Pizza 🍕, shame it wasn’t good.. hope you had a great party 🎉, see you on Wednesday! Xx

    • @OverlandingSophia

    Cushion goes under your butt or is the permanent softer bits built into a chair or couch, pillow goes under your head (lying down) or behind your back (sitting) and is not the permanent softer bits lining a piece of furniture. Your cover looks all the world like a pillowcase!

    • @OverlandingSophia
      @OverlandingSophia  6 месяцев назад +1

      We’ve realised this is a cultural thing! US peeps say it’s a pillow, Canadians and UK say it’s a cushion! To me, cushions are small and square and usually decorative, pillows are for sleeping! Bens been in the States too long 🤪💛
