Live to work or work to live? No more work 12 months a year with 4 weeks annual holiday. No more commute. No more mortgage.
We've been sharing it all on our channel for others to think could we do this?
We gave up corporate life and bought a sweet little cottage in Wales and work as campsite wardens for 6 months through summer at Kennexstone campsite Gower.
Then 6 months off to do whatever we choose.
Change doesn't happen by chance it happens by choice... Would we return to an average working life?.... Never x

Sorry for your loss ❤we were down Rhossili last week beautiful love from Swansea x
Thanks Rossini is spectacular x
So sory guys for your loss of your mum take care thinking of you all lol veryan steve xx
Great to see you again, sorry for your loss 💕 we visited Kennexstone when we were caravaning in Wales but you were on your days off, we went to Rhossili and walked to worms head, but the tide was in so couldn’t get on the island, 5 months away in the winter months sounds good to me, enjoying listening to your next venture ❤
Yes people are always surprised that we have days off… even our boss says what you want the whole day off? 😂 xx
Hi both just watching your vlog. We have booked the Flix bus from Swansea to Bristol Airport for our trip to Tenerife a week Friday, total cost return including booking our seats just under £30. It was going to cost us £150 to park the car plus fuel. Hugs to you both xx
We didn’t bother booking seats so maybe that’s why we only paid £10.98 but is yours return? We will use Flixbus for all our journeys now such good value Gatwick from Swansea was £11.99 each madness but maybe if you book in advance it’s cheaper… they also changed my date as our flight was changed and no admin fee either thumbs up to Flixbus x
Yeah the further in advance you book the cheaper it is, I checked the bus prices yesterday and our journey to Bristol airport has doubled in price. I think it's like flight prices, so many seats at the cheapest price then they start rising, but the bus is almost full now. Xx
Yeah return, it's a bit like airline prices so many seats at the cheapest price then when they've been sold they start rising.Yesterday I looked at the bus to see if it was full, it's almost full and the price is double what we paid to go up but the same price coming back. The sooner you can book the cheaper it is. Xx
@mandythomas4970 interesting to know thanks x
Turkey has got very expensive over the last couple of years. We had a summer house there for 15 years and spent up to 15 weeks annually in it but sold up in 2020. Went back for a month, rental, last year and was astounded at the cost of eating out the drinks were more than in a UK pub in many venues, even in the places off the main drag we were paying £2.50-3.00 for an Effes. Take a lot of spondiles.
Be interesting to see how it’s changed since we last went… we won’t be eating out all the time as we have self catering but we will only have our set budget as it’s got to last us all the 5 months 😊
Sorry for your loss , nice to have you back, mics are very good 😊
Thanks Elaine x

You are a British subject. As for the brexit time will tell. Respect to Mark and will England win the whole thing?
Mark says he doubts it very much 😊
Well you never know. They will have to pull out the stops for the next match for sure.
Going Turkey too in October - first timer 🎉
@mattjames88 Hope you enjoy which part of Turkey?
@@gypsysoulsjudymark.escapet7388 OLUDENIZ ithink it's called 😊

Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the Flix bus tip. I'll see if it goes through Cardiff.
I think it does x
sending you good wishes, Paz did vlogs from Turkey very expensive, are friends meeting up with uz on any trips as the were good fun especially the beer and wine on the balcony x
It will be interesting to see how it is in Turkey now as we last went in 11 years ago. We usually manage to get friends subscribers to join in on the beer reviews.. I’m sure we will have a good response 😀
Everyone's getting Irish citizenship. 😊
Very expensive and time consuming even if you have Irish family.
Good update and lovely picture of the beach. Judy it’s Shengen. Looking forward to your trips, my how time flies. Thanks Judy and mark. Oh forgot to mention the microphones are fab, perfect sound, good old mr travelon, I hope you meet up with him again this winter.
I know I say it wrong but it’s my way of making sure your all listening 😂 Dave is a fab chap and yes we will def met up with him in December we know where he lives 😂 x
