The raw side of travel.
Uncut.
Unclean.
Imperfect.
Epic.

Barry and janine from eastenders
is that who we look like? 😂
I would be afraid to be blown over the side by a strong gust of wind.
Sooo beautiful
Achill Co. Mayo?
Well I had an excuse not to struggle up when I went past many years ago. It was raining heavy and the top was covered with cloud.
Woohoo! What a spot, sure you had a blast! Pretty new subscriber, but I`m so glad I did 🤗🥰😘!
Speed reading!
👋 from Israel 🇮🇱
We live in Southern Spain....but love northern Spain...great video
You may be better seeing if you can buy a proper double mattress. Good luck.
Great video 👍🙏
you are a youtuber, you must have been given a free power station ? Just use an electric underblanket. It will last all night and keep you as warm as toast overnight, if you don't have a diesel heater.
Love!
Microcamper???
Living in the back of a transit van 😮 things are getting silly, nice trip in Islay thou 😊
Ah, how nice for you 🤗🥰! Summer on Kos ˋ82, my wife and I got married in autumn that year! We went there for 2 weeks together with 2 befriended couples, such wonderful memories 🤩🥹😁😍🙏🏻! 🖖🏻✌🏻
Hi Guys I've only started watching you're vids, you are trying to give the new van a name..how about TransMit??👃
Love a good courtyard
Beautiful. My maternal great grandparents are from Islay. I myself lived in Scotland as a child and visit regularly but haven’t been to Islay…yet!
Hari OM Yup, the main reason I am not putting windows into The Grey is that I love the cocoon darkness for sleeping - rarely have a sleepless night now! Do get some ventilation happening though kiddos - you know why! YAM xx
Dam she has a nice assssss!!!
Off to Venice and Sorrento
Hope you have an amazing time 😁
This place is INCREDIBLE! :)
MY Kos! my perfect ancestral home.
It’s such a beautiful island 😁 we loved it!
Call you new camper May. Then you will have Ellie May from the Beverly Hillbillies. You may have to google that.
Haha great name! 😆
Xx
😁😁
Re sleeping and being cold, not sure if you aware if blow up bed on cold surface then that can effect the temp? Suggest a carpet if not already done on van floor. Sorry if you knew this. Loving the advert for visiting Scottish islands
Yeah we also have our a carpet down after the night in the freezing cold and it seems to have helped 😁 glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 🥰
Old sheep skin rug I use under matress and seems to stop the condensation ❤❤
That’s interesting! Could it be the fibres caught the condensation instead? 🤔
I lived on Islay for 12 years, best place for bringing up kids, so much freedom. Lovely to see the island again ❤
I can imagine 🥰 seems like such a lovely community as well!
Enjoyed that, Islay has been high on the agenda for ages
Glad to hear it 😁 you will love it when you visit 🥰 highly recommend trying the 3 mile whisky trail in port Ellen
We've just had nearly 4 weeks in the Outer Hebs (Butt of Lewis to Barra) We've had 2 sunny days and then rest has been vile. What happened to summer? Thankfully we're now in a holiday let. Another week in the campervan would have seen us carried out in a box⚰️
Haha tell me about it 🤣 we get washed out in Arran in the next video! Haha aw god 😂😂
Hello guys, Really enjoying your vlogs! Funny you mention about every person waving at you when driving etc. Myself and my wife had a break at North Uist in April and as soon as we left the ferry every single person in a vehicle waved at us😂 I said to my wife “all these people are waving and I have no idea who they are 😂😂 And yes there is a thing called the North Uist wave 👋
Ahh I love that! Didn’t notice last time we were over there but in a motorhome we are used to waving at everyone anyway so maybe that’s why 😆
I’m very intrigued by how the small vanlife works. I sold my old motorhome recently to downsize to one of those little Ford Transit Customs. But I can’t decide whether to get the LWB high top for extra space - specifically for when the weather is bad.😅 so watching with interest to help me make my decision!!!
Get the lbw high top. That's what we got after upsizing. My oh was getting a cricked neck and no sleep in the smaller van.
@@joolzmurray5751 Thanks for the advice. High top is deffo what I’m looking for….I worry the LWB will be too long for a daily drive, but I’m just overthinking it really.
It was tough for us this time as we didn’t have anything set up to cook etc inside the van 🤔 it was very much just camping with a big metal tent 😂 it is MUCH easier for getting around in though! Cheaper for ferries too
his accent would burst your brain
Aucht aye 😆
Have you got Ella back?
Nearly 😁😁 counting down the days!
Happy days and freedom not long then xx❤
Living vicariously through you guys, yours is seriously my dream ilfe 🥰
We so glad to hear that 🥰 hope we can inspire some of your future adventures!
where is this?
This is Sango sands up on the north coast of Scotland 😁
Hi Gemma and Campbell By coincidence last Sunday was Fathers day and what did i get from our very adult children a 14yrs old bottle of Isle of Jura! All the best Crawford
Ahh great choice then! Love the Islay type of whisky 🥰
Callie....short for Caledonia! Love the wee van!
That would be a great name! Already sorted it though and will be announcing next week 😆
Gemma, you need a cozy seat belt cover!
Haha great idea! This new van has seat warmers though so winter will be a breeze 😆
Get a Joolca Portable shower, best for vanlife😊
Interesting I’ll check it out thanks 😁
Trevor the Transit - Surely...
Trevor 😆 love it! We have a name sorted now so will be announcing next week 😁
Can't find the vlog of Ediniburgh? Was it a short? Loving the new little van xx
It was part of our “vanlife nightmare” one two weeks ago 😁
@@highlands2hammocks Thanks xx
They are great wee vans to convert just plan it out i got ideas of you tube but done it to suit our needs i.would start with taking the bulk head out and getting some windows in it makes a massive diffrence 😊
That’s the plan! Need to get the kit ordered and get cracking 😁
Still recovering from the news you have never tried Laphroaig before! Went to Islay in pre motorhome days:: you have reminded me we must return!
Haha I know I couldn’t believe it! And you should do 😁 in the sunshine it is incredible and in the rain there is whisky 😆
Elle to
Ellie 2.0? 😆
Do like the new van definitely a frank
We have a name now and will be announcing next week 😁
You should call your camper Minnie. Or something in Gaelic like Floraidh Bheag! Such a great trip!
Got the name all sorted now 😁 will be sharing next week! 🥰
I cannot wait for the wedding! I hope you guys share at least some of your big day! May the road always meet you with new adventures! Wonderful young couple of wanderers!
Me neither 😆 we will be not to worry! Taking you all along to Greece with us 😁
6:50 Isn't that the German national anthem in the background? lol
Could be 😂 no idea haha
