In this video we spend £400 renovating a 20 year old caravan, which we will be living in full time, while we start work clearing our land.
About us: We're Jon & Emilie, a husband and wife, living in West-Wales with our dog Maggie. It's always been our goal to live within our means and be mortgage free, so we’ve just sold our house on Instagram and used all of our life savings to buy a 3 acre abandoned caravan park, so we can self build a tiny home.
Work with us: contact - campoutwestPR@gmail.com

My brother sold his business and bought some land (in UK) he built a whole farmhouse cabin and has mini horses, goats, chicken and turkeys. He also has a caravan too that he said we could stay in so this is a great video as it needs revamping too lol. ❤

@sarahnortheastenglanduk6276 10 месяцев назад

Fantastic job!!!! But please wear a mask gor any dust or mould jobs in the future x

@googlespyfranchise9089 Месяц назад

I was just thinking that!! Mould illness is real and very dangerous. Also people don’t realise that you should only ever remove mould, if you try to kill it it responds by releasing even more spores and mycotoxins everywhere. There’s no way I would ever stay in a caravan that had been mouldy in the past, not after getting sick from a mouldy house. Took me a while to recover from the fibromyalgia it gave me, very disabling and horrid. Never again. Be careful folks! Wear N99 masks.

You are a total inspiration, and i can't wait to live my life off grid.

@@markbils4179 Thanks Mark! So hopefully our next video will be dropping by the end of this month. Renovation on the land has been on hold over August, while we've been away with our day job (www.the-wildb-bride.com) currently replying to you from our van in Cornwall, as we were here shooting a wedding yesterday! We've been shooting back to back weddings all over the UK this month, but back next week, as work will slow down a little, so renovation will be in full swing! We've never done anything like this before, but we did self-build a small office in our old back garden during lockdown, so we do feel slightly confident when it comes to starting to build our timber frame cabins :)
