- A short video, to explain why we are behind with the return trip video from Quesada to St Malo.
We are Mick and Cath, currently working as campsite wardens in Ripon North Yorkshire, UK, but with retirement fast approaching we are planning a move to our home in Spain.
In the meantime we plan to use our 2009 Belgian built Maesss motorhome, based on a Fiat Ducato to make trips out from our base in Spain with a trip in 2025 which we hope will span a few months in Spring and summer.
The RUclips channel was set up to help us keep and share the memories with anyone who is interested, so, if you are interested in this kind of content and may be planning a similar retirement and need to know our costs, we will be sharing our expenses and experiences as we continue our journey.
Our journey really began when we moved to Canada in 2008 for Mick to become a long haul truck driver, where we lived in our truck and spent an adventurous time delivering oversized loads all over Canada and the USA.
We also ran a Blog during that time but didn't have a Vlog due to lack of decent gear for recording in a big rig, although we do have lots of clips on Micks other RUclips channel... / @mickflynnimages and lots of pictures on mickflynnimages.com.
We then returned to England for a while and spent four summer seasons working in the Loire Valley on a beautiful campsite, before moving back to the UK and staying for six years working on a campsite near Henlow, Bedfordshire.
In 2021 we moved up to Yorkshire to be nearer our house which had been locked up for a few years except for short weekend visits, although, as we were provided with comfortable accomodation at our current site we decided to sell up, and so began our Spanish dream with the sale of our modest house in Bradford, which allowed us to buy the small apartment in Spain.
Our next big job (which we will be documenting) is to teach Cath how to ride a bike as she has never had one, but we feel that a couple of small folding electric bikes will allow us to get out and about more to explore wherever we are.
Welcome along for the ride, we hope we can make it interesting and informative for you.

Hi Carley thank you for your lovely comments 😊. We will do a video about campsite wardens and what it entails in the future, just in case anyone is interested. Mick has put a bit of me singing in one of the videos ,although I am not sure which and the footage is not very good. I will gey him to video a bit over the summer as I sometimes do a bit of singing on a weekend in the beer garden when the weather is good . Thanks for watching 🙂
Sorry to hear you’ve been unwell Mick, take care. Lovely to hear Cath chatting away. Would love to hear Cath singing. Xx
Thanks Mate, it's knocked me for six and reinforces the fact that we should really stop work over here after this season. I have put a clip of Cath singing on one of the videos, I'll add it on to a future video as well. M
