We're a full time travel family of 5, living in our self-converted lorry.
Welcome to our channel :) We are Ric and Keira and along with our 3 kids (Piper, Jack & Teddy) we travel the length and breadth of Europe, creating memories and sharing both our challenges and triumphs along the way.
We hope our videos fill you with both inspiration, and real-life tips for family travel.

If you watch Motor oil geek on RU-vid you will find engine oil additives in a can are a waste of money as manufacturers spends fortune on developing additive packages in their oil. More important change the oil more frequently than the manufacturer states than are cans of additive.
Aww that’s nice 🙂 Germany is beautiful and really has so much to offer. Not many people seem to spend much time here, maybe Spain is more tempting. But there is honestly so much to see and do in Germany. Black Forest beautiful and the German alps are just absolutely stunning.
Lovely video guys interesting and beautiful, The kids are lovely always happy. and of course man flu exists.lol every man has it worse then anyone or at least they think it is😂
Spaniels are a bit schizo and can get nervy. Better not to use punishment based things. Just stop walking and turn the other way. After several times doing this they get the idea that they aren't going anywhere if they pull! It does take a lot of patience and you have to keep practicing it when they forget. But it's the only thing we have found works. We also didn't get on with the various harnesses and figure of 8 leads they sell. @@Touringwiththekids
In Andalucia the tall doors on the old buildings were to enable a man on horse back to enter without dismounting. I don't know if it was the same in Germany.
Hi guys it looks like you had lots of fun this week, The yummy snacks you get in the towns you visit look great so jealous 😊. I have noticed that the children don't say thank you very often for food or anything they are given🤷🙂. See you next week
It would be worth looking at the mechanism from a big caravan table. We had one in our hobby 720. It was really sturdy. I think your kids are so lucky with the amazing life they have. Happy travels
Always wanted to do the Romantic Road, looks like you guys are having an amazing time. We would really like to have a copy of your route and park ups on Google maps so we can plan our own trip. Really enjoying your videos. Cheers John
Yes definitely interested in finding out where you parked up along the Romantic Road as we are doing the same Roadtrip next May. My husband and I were trying to guess! What work does Kira do online? Do you work Rick, aswell as vlogging? Love seeing Teddy help you in the kitchen! Take Care All ❤
We would love to know your route. It is always a pleasure watching you all on your journey and some day soon hoping to get our passports renewed so that we can extend our adventures x
I love you guys so much and I really love just how your living life and taking the kids on a life long journey that they would never have had sat in a class room, that fountain was legendary and ive put it on my bucket list!
24:43 so that really posey posh people can wear a silly hat while riding through on a horse. (The doors are also wide in case the posh people are wide). 😂
Thanks for the warning about Ric wearing shorts ... could have done with a hairy chest warning too! Sad to hear about your table leg woes, in the old days (cara)van tables used a wall as one support so were tough (for the weight). With U shaped dinettes the table leg (usually only one) has to support all the twisting forces as well as the weight. I hope you can repair it - and spare parts are available As long as your kids tidy up most of the time you'll be fine ... both my children (24 & 16) get to a level of mess where they become overwhelmed by the task and need help - and seem to get there before any reminders get actioned (one reason I couldn't fit them in a lorry!), although I'm not great at punctual reminders! Looks like you have this parenting thing pretty much sorted, you should be proud!
My daughter was born in Heidelberg. I lived in Darmstadt an Neider Beerbach for 2 years. So funny I came back to message y'all to say the synchronities of life are real. I finished watching this blog, stepped off my boat ( here in Rockport TX, I'mactuallyfrom Virginia), and met 2 German men walking by, happenstance (odds?)😊. They were from Munchen... enjoy y'alls travels, stay safe and well. High fives 2 the kiddos and kisses on Rosie's nose ❤❤❤
We absolutely love the architecture and cool places like this in Germany but couldn't handle how busy it was after coming from Scandinavia! Lovely vibes in this video looking forward to next week ❤
