  • Apologies for no videos being uploaded as of late. Too much stuff to do with too little time to do it! Anyway, I should be back to a more normal video upload schedule for the forseeable future! :)
    ------------------
    The saga continues! I'm along the top northern most coastline of Scotland. It's totally miserable weather so I call off the day's destination and explore this tiny old crofter's cottage - Mary Ann'e Cottage.
    For more info regarding Mary Anne's cottage visit:

    I'm making this up as I go. How am I going to afford it? Where am I going? Why? What do I get up to?
    It's going on right now, I'm out here full time, seeing where it takes me!
    Come join me, there's beer! :)

    This is my first van conversion. I have no experience nor particular skills in this. I am basically converting a van to live in full time using the information from watching youtube videos...Let's see how that pans out :)
    Here is what I aim to do:
    Convert a van to live in it full time
    Travel the entire coastline of the UK
    Improve my filming/editing skills
    Document the entire journey
    Drink beer... :)
    ==================================
    Hi, my name is Si.
    In late September of 2021 I decided that I was a little bored with my small business selling antique and vintage furniture based in South Wales UK which we started 4 years ago from the ground up. I fancied doing something else completely, something fun and a new challenge, and that new thing is full time van life.
    So, currently, I've closed down the business and I'm now living in the van partime. I have a Ford Transit SWB medium top van and that’s pretty much it. From here on out I am going to be filming my journey into full time vanlife, the van conversion (no experience) and everything it takes to get there. A kind of before and after video series of how I finally (no guarantees) got to where I want to be.
    I am hoping to have the conversion done by summer 2022 (this didn't happen! maybe summer 2023?) and then travel fulltime around the coastline of the UK working along the way to fund the project/lifestyle. I may head to Spain first though? I have no idea what is about to happen... :)
    Join me in that process (warts and all) and hopefully I can inspire someone else to do whatever it is they wish to do from the absolute ground up.
    “Keep the vision, trust the process”.
    Si
    Super Van Vagabond :)

    I live just north of whitby, mate. If you need a driveway with electric to fix it, or an address to get a new diesel heater delivered/sorted just let me know

    • @SuperVanVagabond
      @SuperVanVagabond  4 дня назад +3

      Thats very kind of you surfy! I'll keep it in mind. I've got a new motherboard for the heater coming. Being sent to my work address so there's that. Hopefully that'll fix it? ...

    • @surfysurf1
      @surfysurf1 4 дня назад

      Not massively sure tbh. I fitted my own and tapped it into my van's diesel tank, and it kind of just seems to work ok (other than it sometimes turns itself on randomly, so I just take the fuse out if I'm not in it). But for the sake of a hundred quid or whatever they cost, it may just be worth buying a new one? Most of the stuff that you'll have already have fixed in can just stay there and just substitute the main body and leave the exhaust etc. in from the old one?

    • @SuperVanVagabond
      @SuperVanVagabond  4 дня назад

      @@surfysurf1 yeah that's what I'm thinking to, but I wanted to try a few less costly things first. The error E - 3 suggests glow plug, but could also be low power or leads. I've got a video coming with this in it. I got into some of what I've tried already. All I know is its been a pain in the a$$!

    • @SuperVanVagabond
      @SuperVanVagabond  4 дня назад +1

      I've sold all sorts of stuff back in the day. Had a lot of fun. I never referred to myself as an antique dealer either. I was just making it up as I went along. Learning on the job :)
