About us:
After meeting in New Zealand back in 2017, Beth and Jake have travelled the world, working online and creating memories.
Beth left the UK in 2014 and has been travelling full time ever since, she is the owner of www.sheisthelostgirl.com and has a passion for writing and photography.
Jake has been travelling since 2016 and during this time has perfected his photography and videography skills. He is adventurous and has a passion for the outdoors.
Having lived in various countries around the world, we decided that instead of settling down, we'd build a tiny home inside a van.
We've never done anything like this before, we have no building experience, no electrical experience, and no plumbing experience.
This is a huge learning curve for us and we welcome you to join us in this challenge.
Our Wild Horizons documents a journey of continued adventure.

Silicone spatula - not just for cooking but to scrape oans, plates and bowls clean before washing up which helps save water

Yes! Oh we have one of those, I can't believe we forgot about it. Like you say it's so useful, I love getting every last bit of peanut butter our of the jars/tubs with it haha!
Me and my bf have found that we also just use a wok and a sauce pan for everything. Definitely don’t need 20 different pans for cooking.

@@OurWildHorizons since my bf is Chinese we usually make Chinese dishes. Our favourite is rice and chicken with leek and onion.
100% agree on the bungee cords! They're so underrated 😅 I did use them to tie up my kitchen draws so they wouldn't fly open as I was driving but now I have upgraded with turn buttons. A hot water bottle would be my next essential item. Especially now its got colder 🥶

Aren’t they just! Oooh and yes, can’t believe we forgot the hot water bottle, we’ve been using it every night lately ha, we’re fitting a diesel heater this week though so hoping that helps 😂
Love the straining saucepan, great design! Pegs! Pegs are always handy for fastening food bags, hanging washing and stopping spoons falling into saucepans 😆
