    Love the farmer blocking the road at 10.47mins,typical farmers we have here in Ireland 😂 our wee country does pack a spectacular punch. Glad you enjoyed it. You picked the absolute nicest side of the country. Over on the east Wicklow is stunning too. Next visit for you both

    *Hello Jack & Jo. Thank you for your lovely travel videos.* ... If you get a chance, can you tell me how it was driving with your large size van in the Balkans?... Also, as far as overnight parking, what was your experience with finding low-priced or free areas where permission is explicitly given in Montenegro?... *I did read on your website and also a lot of others have said: 'as long as you are discrete people tend to turn a blind eye to wild parking/camping in the Balkans'. But that's a bit too much anxiety for my temperament while travelling alone - especially in a foreign country. Thank you in advance if you can answer 🌻xx

    Hey Tatyana - my apologies for the delayed response, I had a pesky Masters dissertation to finish and I took my eyes off of KZread for a few months! We were in Montenegro for a week, and didn't struggle to find places to camp, there were a few spots we found on the Park4night app, which we'd recommend dowloading. As for driving a big vehicle - the big winding roads were tough, but OK if you're a confident driver. It depends what kind of roads you're used to - if you're from England like us, we're used to driving down tight country roads (although its still stressful!)
