    Castles, castles, castles. Keep them coming. We loved the vlog. The footage of the castles and especially the cliffs was unbelievable. This was one of your best yet for for the scenery we think. The story flowed really well too, good commentary. Keep up the good work. Have to disagree on one thing though, Australia has the best beaches, not Scotland ha ha ha. 😜

    Hi Johnny 😊 thank you very much. We absolutely love the size of our van. The reason we decided to buy a motorhome was due to the size of it has living in a van full time and through winter, we wanted to have the space 😊 we lived in a low roof Toyota hiace in Australia and knew that we wanted something bigger than that 😊 do you have a van yourself?

    @@highlands2hammocks I don't have a van yet, I'm looking at something a bit smaller than you have. I started aff thing I would get something like a VW camper but realised it was too small after looking at one.It's looking like a Peugeot Boxer Elddis sunseeker 100 Campervan which is a bit more compact than your one but much bigger than the Vw campervan .
