The Rambling Irishman In Spain
The Rambling Irishman In Spain
Solo Travelling On A Budget / Tips - Advise - Adventures
I STOPPED WORKING, SOLD UP, SET OFF TO SEE WHERE LIFE TAKES ME AND MY TWO DOGS MOLLY AND BUSTER
Part 1. I've travelled a lot in my life, now I've started to film it. I plan to end up in Thailand but I'm on a budget and want to try other things before I settle so I stopped working, sold my home and bought a motorhome and travelled around Europe for a while, I had a great time but eventually started to get bored.
Part 2. I'm selling the van, buying a car and driving to France or Spain initially and I intend to rent an apartment and explore for a while and then move on to the next country. Oh, I didn't say, I have two dogs, Molly and Buster....my companions.
Part 3. I've returned home to look after my sick dad. Still making videos and looking forward to the next stage of my travels.
I would love you to come along on my journey.
UNFORTUNATELY AT THE MOMENT I AM NOT DOING MEET-UPS. I MAY DO SO AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE.

You ok?
That lovely little drone could have cost you your life! If the temps had of been any higher you mght have got into a situation unlike Dr Mike experienced in Symi, Greece a few weeks ago. Do be careful Alan ,out in the sun.
Very true!
Amazing video
@@stevenraynor8696 Thank you 😊
Could you please share your solicitor‘s name?
They are called 'My Lawyer in Spain' 😊
Steve I know this is an old video and I've seen some of your newer stuff. Can I ask do you have a Irish passport so dont have any worries about Brexit rules etc?, Many thanks
Yep, I have an Irish passport
Why did you get rid of your camper ?
Long story! Basically I got bored 🥱
@@TheRamblingIrishman I am thinking to buy a camper and do what you have done!
It’s cold in the canary’s in the winter too and especially at night
Yep
Good on you Steve 👍
Thanks 👍
Get yourself down to Gaurdamar Cars and see Arron. Seldom will you see such well presented used cars.
Thanks for the suggestion, I will do! 😊
lovely video thankyou 4 your time sir steve and nam thailand
Glad you enjoyed it 😊👍
If flying a plane is on your list, you might like to check out New Horizons Microlighting in Benicolet (near where you did your bungee jump I think). He is a UK instructor and has been based i Spain for many years now I believe. He gives lessons and pleasure flights in a fixed-wing closed-cockpit microlight and an open cockpit wind-in-the-hair microlight also.
Thank you, I will investigate 😊👍
@@TheRamblingIrishman There's another UK Microlight instructor operating out of Alhama de Murcia airfield. His name is Keith Reynolds. He may be closer to Villmartin. I was in touch with him recently regarding my own interest in flying with him next winter.
Well done, Steve, you are a braver man than I.
Thank you 😊
One of the best videos I’ve ever watched on this subject. Highly recommend Henry David Thoreau’s book Walden; or, Life in the Woods. Life changing.
Hi, thank you so much for saying! And I'll look up the book 😊💚
Fare play Steven 👏👏. Was that easier on your spine because your feet weren't tied together?? You're braver than me 😉👍. Well done 💚
Thanks. The ropes are elasticated so I think unlikely to cause damage no matter what...I think lol
Well done Steve ya buck eejit! Not in a million years! 😂 I’ll give you a shout and we’ll get together for lunch or whatever, hopefully next week if you’re free. Life is short, GET A NEW CAR! Enjoy your shopping trip 😊
Thank mate 😊
Brilliant i live in lisburn and you giving lisburn a wee mention as i live there was great though like yourself we have a wee place not far from villamartin keep those videos coming
Thank you 😊👍
And you somehow kept your cool and held on to that camera! Great work! 👍😌🎶
Thank you so much! It'll go towards my next adventure 😊
Just keep up the work you've been doing for some time now. If we meet, I'll tell you how much your channel has meant to us. :-)

Well done Steve. There's a reason i don't have that on my bucket list. 💩,🤣. I was expecting lots of people to be there. It looked very lonley when you were gearing up. Another great video. 😁👍. Cheers.
There was supposed to be a group before me and they didn't show lol. Better for me, no time to think! 😂
Credit to you.👍 But everybody has a weakness and heights are mine, no way would l do that. I'm retired having sold a roofing company.😂

Well done. Brilliant effort. 👏🏼
Thank you! 😃
Wow I just watched your moving into your new apartment video and this one and it’s like you are inspiring me to go for it! I also love traveling to Thailand and would love to live there part of the year. Just a bit nervous to leave the UK for good but want to! 😅
I looked at it like that for years and then I just did it! Never fear, go for it 😊
🥶 Well done 👏👏
Thanks! 😃
NO WAY!!! And when you mentioned those tethers.....
Yep, looking back at it, I do think I'm probably a bit mad/stupid lol
...and you thought being a driving instructor was scary... Jumping off a bridge or sitting in a car with teenagers who can't drive???
Maybe surprising but give me the teenage learners every time 🤣😂
😂😂😂😂 …….. well done!
Lol thanks 😊
Well done Steve wow!

Well done Steve!! I was thinking the same with the hat hahahaha

Wow! Well done Steve. However, u don't always have to do what your mind tells you!!!! Mind yourself!
What will be will be 😂
Don't get me wrong Steve. It's fantastic that you're doing these things......making me feel like I need to push myself too. I enjoy your sense of adventure.💪👌Sent you a few coffees to keep the energy up ...☕☕☕
Thanks so much, I really do appreciate it. It's nice to know my videos give encouragement! 😊👍
Literally said to my son the other day, if I was in a relationship I'd have someone to help me lift heavy things and stop me doing silly stuff 😂😂😂
😂🤣
