Welcome to my Channel,
My name is James and I live full time in my tiny van, however this is not just a van life channel. I enjoy travel, food and drink and making videos 🙂
When I turned 50 I decided I’d had enough of the rat race and working long hours just to pay rent and bills, life was passing me by and I needed a drastic change.
FAQ
Where is Helen?
Helen has a responsible full time job and two children so unfortunately she can’t join me on every trip. I really wish she could.
What equipment do you use?
My vlogging camera is a GoPro Hero 9 but I also use my pixel 6a phone and Lumix G80 camera for other footage
For editing, I used Premiere Pro on an old laptop but I’m saving to buy a more powerful computer.
Do you have children?
Yes I have a 6yr old daughter who lives with her mum but I see her quite a lot. I don’t usually put her on the vlogs and if I do, I block out her face for privacy reasons. I also have a grown up son.
How do you fund your lifestyle?
I don’t need as much to live these days since going full time van life but I receive a small percentage of income from the ads that RU-vid put on the videos.
Why the sponsored videos?
I only accept sponsorship from companies I use and trust, this is my fulltime job and my income, it’s how I support my family. (I have Patreon if you prefer videos with no ads).
How do I contact you?
Please contact me here: james@bythecurb.co.uk

We nearly lost the other side of Percy Street about the same time but the Newcastle public were having non of it after the Marks and Sparks fiasco. Shame about the Broken Doll as well.

Definitely is! Stayed for two years during uni in the toon, and no place has made me feel at home like it has (not even where I'm from). The architecture, the vibe, the food, the streets, and most importantly the people who are outstandingly kind and warm. I miss the walks there with the lads, getting some coffee, Greggs and walking around near the monument. Simple stuff, special place ❤

There's sadly so so many cities gone much the same way. The perfect example is how swiftly so many of those little independent sports shops have just evaporated from our towns & cities. Only JD & Sports Direct seem to control the monopoly now and they are 80% leisure wear, trackie tops or replica shirts of the "London/NW big six" or PSG/Barca/Real Madrid. You'll find a Newcastle United shirt, but only in Newcastle. Shops need the support to keep competitive with online shopping. I visit the area from Norfolk to see the family every so often & all I can do is look in the city centre & reminisce about how much nicer it was in the 70s/80s, especially when the Metro was only just built & you could come in from the Coast in around 25mins, get anything, then just hop on a train home. Now, I just come in & hope some shops still exist from my last visit, meanwhile the Metro fare's been ramped up yet again 😢

Newcastle is criminally underrated as a city, (which helps in keeping costs down!) Im born and bred, lived here 36 years, but Id say at least 50% of my friends have moved here for work or Uni, not knowing much about the city, and basically said.. "Yup, this is where im living now"...

One of the Georgian houses in front of you at Eldon Square, the one with the blacked out windows, is actually just a facade. It disguises a giant air vent for the Metro system that runs directly below. The vent was installed in the 1970s keeping the existing exterior.

I think the Newcastle Tourist Board (if there is such a beast) owes you a pint for this vid. I've been to Newcastle briefly once and remembered it similar to Leeds but nothing of the kind - it's a great place. Your anecdote about your dad taking you to football very early reminds me of a story about my dad. He wasn't really a football fan but wanted to see what it was like so he went on his own to see West Ham play. He's a gentlemen sort (exactly like Foyle off the tv). He stood half-way between two pillars for a good view (Pre all-seater). As people poured in he was jostled and excused-meed until when the game started he was behind a pillar and couldn't see the pitch very well...then people started pissing up the pillar. He never went again lol. Anyways great vid, great pubs found, like the architecture comments, cathedral nice, band...erm...not too sure about them lol. What a place to park though!

James - another excellent Northern City tour, I learnt so-much. Newcastle is indeed a lovely place, in some views it very much looked like Bath mainly because of Georgian architecture. Good camera work too, your b-roll is getting professional. Overall very enjoyable.

Enjoy your channel. Definitely keep up with the information and research on the areas you go to because that is a unique selling point of your vlogs. On editing having a before and after still shot of the town centres and interesting places you go to would be good its always fascinating how the surroundings changed over time. Keep up the good work

Once you move out of the city there are some rougher places and depressed places. But the city centre itself has always had some great buildings and places to drink and eat

I love all of your videos but as a Newcastle native, I particularly loved this one. I loved how positive you were about the city and the area. The bookshop in the photos at the end was tremendous. It had loads of second hand books and my late mother used to love browsing and "getting a bargain". Brought back great memories. Elaine Page/Barbara Dickson inserts were hilarious.

My son lived in that Terrace outside the ground last year in his 2nd year at uni! At minute 28:00 Newcastle Lemmy walks past you in his motorhead jacket. Its funny because me and my son laugh about him. We saw him in the summer walking round in his demin shorts and cowboy hat!

You were in my neck of the woods James I currently live about 10 miles from Newcastle. And it’s a great place. Which is why I’ve stayed up here cos I got family back down in Barnsley and some want me to go back there, but to be honest I prefer it here. I also love Barnsley but, I’ve just got so used to it here. The people up here seem calm and respectful of each other, and that puts me at ease. Unlike for example a town like Doncaster where there’s a sense of intimidation and threat and the people can seem prickly Glad you guys had fun up here
