Minimalism is taking the UK by storm, in this first video by 2GoRoam; Minimalism in the UK outlines what this means to them and they are taking things to extremes. Following on from Marie Kondo and a well received Minimalist documentary on Netflix, this is a real life experiment on how far you can take a minimalist lifestyle. We have sold our house and all our stuff and are ready to slow travel the world once Covid allows. Having followed the principles of FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) we invested wisely, spent sparingly and formed a plan to escape the rat race and take on the world! Minimalism doesn't get any more extreme and we will leave the UK to seek adventure.
This is the opening video of a Series that is likely to last 10 years. Be inspired to save money, invest and develop your own plan for Financial Independence, the future is out there for you. We will help you along your own journey. What are you waiting for? Subscribe, buckle up and enjoy the ride.
Neil & Sarah

Just found you today, almost 3 years since you started. Good news for me is that you have continued the journey and now I will be able to binge watch to catch-up.

@lesf5792 7 дней назад

My wife came across your channel yesterday. And we watched your first video. You are so naive (😂). COVID seems so long ago. We plan on watching every single one of your videos. We are looking forward to seeing your collective progression. Best from Canada! 🇨🇦 👍🏻😘

@BWV1052 3 года назад

Saw you featured on Go With Less, nice launch video! We are excited to follow your journey and do something similar in the future. The FIRE nomad community seems pretty cool!

@2GoRoam 3 года назад

The FIRE community is the coolest eh! Everyone wanting to help each other and at the forefront of that help for us has been Tim & Amy from GoWithLess so we are following in their footsteps. Really pleased you enjoyed the video, it was actually a lot of fun to do that one first. Thanks and best wishes Neil & Sarah

@WomenBreakingTheMold 2 года назад

We’re planning to do the same. Putting our house on the market in September! Looking forward to following along.

@2GoRoam 2 года назад

Hi Cindy, That is fabulous to hear! Really it is. We get most excited when we hear of other people going on the same journey as us! We are really excited for you. Hope you enjoy living vicariously through us as you start to get your own plan together. Please keep in touch, we are excited to hear your plans sometime in the future. Best wishes Neil & Sarah

@tomard69 2 года назад

Hey you guys - my wife Teresa and I are under 2 years from living your way! We love your videos and humor! I’m 62 later this year and will fully retire at 65 but have some awesome years leading up where I can travel, work and save money! If our health holds up - we are going to have the times of our lives, but in the meantime I’m living through you, even though we just Came back from a 35 day pack packing trip through all parts of Europe and it was a blast! Just thought we would say hello! Tom and Teresa

@2GoRoam 2 года назад

Hey Tom! Very kind of you to say, we really appreciate it and you taking the time to comment. Love that you are heading onto the same journey, please do keep in touch, we may be able to meet you somewhere in this world of ours. Best regards, Neil & Sarah

@tomard69 2 года назад

@@2GoRoam Most definitely want to meet up! Here are a couple of laughs that we have in common: my mom made me a “home made” high school letterman’s jacket from one of her jackets as I couldn’t afford genuine one (but in all fairness, it was COOLER than the real (and super expensive ones) and I was one of the top athletes so it made it little easier. And Teresa is “in training” to get rid of all her purses, jewelry, and other “nonsense”. Thirdly, I love how all your trips lead to BEER! Want to stay in touch here or swap emails or something?

@foryoutube3278 2 года назад

We just came across you guys from (Snail Travelers) video who mentioned you. By curiosity we clicked on your names and couldn't stop ourselves from watching your first video. At first we thought you just might be like everyone else as the video started kind of slow, lol, but we kept watching and found that we had so many things in common. You have inspired and motivated us. We will certainly follow your journey and at some point connect. The thing we wanted to leave you with is this. As creatives ourselves, we noticed something very beautiful at the end of your video. As you both walked off to the (sunset) aka the right of the screen .... there was a young couple running in the background towards the left. It was just a brief moment but what a visual message of you walking towards the next chapter of your life while a young couple begins their journey, as you have done before. Can you spot it? Wishing you the best travels and that all your desires manifest as you dream. Cheers, Margie & Eduardo (yes just our 'For RU-vid Only' acct, lol)

@2GoRoam 2 года назад

Hey For RU-vid! You are most welcome around these parts! How cool you found us through our friends the Snail Travelers! We are having a video call with those two this weekend and we can't wait. You really must keep in touch, you sounds a very cool couple and you made us go back to that first video (awful isn't it? lol) and we saw those two running at the end of the video, that was indeed very poetic, thank you for pointing it out. Best wishes Neil & Sarah

@drthomason7043 2 года назад

You're amazing leaving in the middle of a pandemic. I left NZ 26 years ago, heading for Manchester and my Dad said the Arndale got bombed just as I checked in . I said I'll be OK. I was only going for 4 years and stayed 20.. Did live in care. What an experience. The people I met, the places I went. Yep I had health issues and my parents died. Sad I didn't have them to share it with. Retired back here 6 years ago. All the best to you. You'll make it. You can always return home and live in a tiny house.

Hey Steve! FANTASTIC! So what what is your plan post-FI, are you going to be doing a lot of traveling or even consider nomadic living? I guess that is tricky with 3 kids too. Great to have you on board, you are VERY welcome to the party. Best wishes Neil & Sarah

Hi there, missed how old you are? Great job! Love your vlog

@markinyo76 2 года назад

Great video Neil & Sarah, I saw you mention your RU-vid series on the Facebook UK FIRE group, so thought I’d take a look. I was somewhat surprised when you mentioned Alsager as I live nearby (Congleton). Will be really interested to see how you get on and ask the amazing things you find on your travels. You mentioned you’ve never been to Asia - I hadn’t until a few years ago and then went to Vietnam and it blew my mind. Definitely a region you should consider visiting soon!

@2GoRoam 2 года назад

Hey Mark! We are thinking of South East Asia at the moment in fact so you may find we are there sooner rather than later! Congleton! We love Congleton, a lovely little town and we absolutely loved living in Alsager, all around that part of Cheshire is just incredible. We think in fact that in all the UK, around there is the only real place we miss. Good honest people. Best wishes Neil & Sarah

@auroramarie2463 11 месяцев назад

Just watched this video for the first time. Interesting to see your first thoughts on this channel. You guys have done a great job! This is definitely one of my favorite channels right now.

@PostcardAndAPint 2 года назад

First off massive congratulations. You two are an inspiration. We started watching some of your later vlogs and thought, no, these guys are like us and have a similar outlook to us. This is what we want to do (in a fashion!) - so we’ve come back to Vlog one and are going to work our way through your entire library! We are longing to make the shift to working online only and being able to be free to travel where we want. We can’t wait to follow your adventures. Cheers 🍻 love Wills and Rach x

@user-zw3bg9vr5g 3 месяца назад

❤One idea I love history so where ever you go find out the history of the area and show us areas of interest. Tip 2 If you have any helpful information or advice to share please don’t keep us waiting tell us straight away. Costing is a good idea, but the places of interest for me is the most important.

@cdngirlntx 3 года назад

Great video guys! I'm looking forward to following along with you on your journey. My husband and I debated doing the same, but have decided it was best for us to put down roots and travel from a home base instead. He's from the UK and I'm from Canada so by moving to Canada we were able to retire early too (almost 2 years ago) and we're really enjoying it. We're just anxious to get out travelling again! P.S. My husband overheard me watching this video and he said he'd like to hear when you get Belgian buns. He says they are delicious! :-)

@2GoRoam 3 года назад

Hi Stacey, Your husband sounds like he knows his buns, so be sure to tell him once we get into the bun recording process! Interesting that you have considered the same, I know it is something to toss up really, whether to retain a home base. We are sure that in the not too distant future we will wish we had 'home' to go to, but at the same time we are excited to see how we manage that feeling. Congratulations on the retirement and I hope you both get out travelling again very soon! best wishes Neil & Sarah

@RussandSherri1996 2 года назад

Hello from Seattle! We found you through the Retired Travelers and are looking forward to binging all your vid’s. I retired at 53 in Jan 2022 and we are trying to sell my husband’s business so we can both finally get on the road. Thanks for what you’re doing! Take care and blessings to you both

@neilb3112 4 месяца назад

Great video guys! I have just found your channel via the YT algorithm. Brilliant idea to represent what British people can do with FIRE. I found MMM probably five years ago and unfortunately my family haven’t been on the same page but some more personal freedom beckons and I will be able to make my own decisions so no excuses! I’ve seen your most recent and it looks like the honesty is really there, so standing by to binge watch as much as possible. Thank you.

@2GoRoam 4 месяца назад

Awesome, thank you!

@cindiemedina3574 2 года назад

Well, after discovering your videos not too long ago and watching some of your MX videos --I always enjoy going back to the first one to find out how it all started--it takes a willingness to admit that life is short and courage to give up everything and say -what the heck are we going to do to get the most out of it?! I love what you're both doing and it's always exciting to me when someone gets out of their comfort zone and interacts with the world around them. I am excited to hear about all your travels. I'm learning so many new things about travel, finance, and fun! Retiring early has always been on my radar and so I am looking forward to enjoying your journey. One of the things I'll be interested to learn is if you will just keep traveling or will take a break to go home to visit family/friends throughout the ten years of travel you are planning and the pros/cons of constant travel.

@2GoRoam 2 года назад

Hi Cindie, great to have you on board! Thank you for your comment, we are over the moon that you have found us and are enjoying our videos, comments like this mean the world to us :-) Yes, we will be travelling back home to visit family and friends so plan to spend 1 month a year back in the UK (unless we need to be there longer of course!). Cons to long term travel - we obviously miss family and friends very much and 'admin' - things are so much more difficult when you're abroad than in our home country. Pros - well, there is never a dull moment, always something new and exciting to learn about ourselves and of course, meeting new people from around the world, we are amazed just how many friends you can make, chance meetings with people leading to potential long term relationships. We so happy that you have joined our journey, we hope you enjoy! Best wishes Neil & Sarah

@joannenardi8956 2 года назад

When you talk about experiences it reminds me of our trip to Italy 5 years ago. We are from Canada, and this was a bucket list trip. On our last full day in Rome, we were inside the Vatican waiting while my husband went to get holy water to bring home to his mom. My son - who was 12 at the time- threw his arms around my neck and said “thank you so much for this amazing trip”. I still well up thinking about it. We have always been about experiences, but at that moment I knew for certain we did the right thing. Beat of luck on your travels! I am looking forward to following along!

@2GoRoam 2 года назад

Hey Joanne! You sum it up perfectly... collect the memories not the things. We are doing that and loving it, there is nothing that we want or need that we don't have with us on the road. Excited that you are on this journey with us. We really hope you enjoy it! Best wishes Neil & Sarah

@karendavis7734 2 года назад

I’m here for it! I’ll be following…Our plan is to leave the US to slow travel with home base in Mexico and explore the beauty of the country and neighboring countries and beyond for a few years.

Hi Karen, great to have you on board! :-) Welcome! What we have seen of Mexico so far is so beautiful and the people here are very welcoming. We are loving it. We hope we can provide you with some inspiration for when you start to plan your exciting travels. Thank you so much for getting in touch, we appreciate it. Best wishes Neil & Sarah

@2GoRoam 3 года назад

@2GoRoam 3 года назад

Hi Janet, you sound very similar to us. We actually stopped our Sky TV subscription a few years ago as we loved watched the travels that people undertook on RU-vid, real people having real challenges. Then working out if they were in places that we would like to visit. Little tip from us, keep a notepad by when watching RU-vid videos on travel, you'll be amazed at how much you forget as you move onto the next one. Taking notes of where people stayed or restaurants they visited. Really helps when putting an itinerary together. Thanks so much for getting in touch, we really appreciate it. Neil & Sarah

@2GoRoam 3 года назад

Hey Fiona! Thanks for the kind words. We love the word 'vicarious', that is literally what we have been doing on RU-vid for the last few years as we watched people travelling as the rain hit our window at home.... Sunday afternoons were our time to really live vicariously on RU-vid, as the creeping sunday night feeling built up, we would be watching people eating street food in Thailand or visiting historic locations in the Balkans. 7 days! Count them down Fiona and enjoy! :-)

@gillweber7930 Год назад

BRAVO Sarah and Neal! Congratulations! Kurt n I decided to do exactly what you both are embarking on. Our FIRE pays for our travels, living and misc costs. We are fortunate in not having had to sell our home as we need to return home for two months in the year for business purposes. Also, we're Self Funded Retirees, ie not Government reliant on a pension. Travelling like this was always our plan well before we decided to retire. I gave up working in my 40's and Kurt at 63. We were always consistent and disciplined financial planners and, I believe, this is where our forte lay to stand us in good stead. You are both going to have a great time. There will be some worrying times to face but you will be amazed by the assistance you receive. We wish you happy trails and all the very best on your journeys ahead.

Hi Mark, that is great to hear. Very excited that you are a few years behind us, as that means you can watch what we do and not make the same mistakes that we do. There will be many I am sure! We recommend having a bit notepad handy when watching this kind of video on RU-vid as there will be so many ideas and places to note down in the moment. You will be amazed how much you forget! Thanks for coming on the journey with us, hope you enjoy it. Keep in touch!

Sounds very exciting - where are you planning to visit? A fellow Swindon fan, that's fantastic!

Wow you guys are awesome. Well done. I’ve been binging on your videos today. When you do your budgets could put in a little comment about what the cost would be if you were solo/single as many people are. It’s def not a simple divide by 2, so it’s probably somewhere in the middle.

@2GoRoam 3 года назад

WOW! We have reached the Australian Outback?! It was fun to start the RU-vid channel right at the start. I've lost count over the years of the number of times I wished I had started something earlier. Some examples: 1. I wish I had kept every ticket stub from all the gigs I'd ever been to. 2. I wish I had photographed every car I ever owned (past tense... hoping to never own another car :-) ) So we didn't want to start this journey and then say to ourselves "Wouldn't it have been great to record what we were thinking before we got started." So we just went for it. Thanks so much for getting in touch and for following our journey, really hope you enjoy it! Best wishes (Neil) & Sarah

Yes, document everything, it will be the best resource to use when your older and in a full stay at home chapter.

Good to go back and watch early vlogs! What video editing software do you use and what was your learning curve like?? We are on week 1 and trying to decide if we should dive deeper into a professional type or play with some basic editors like Power Direct or similar for awhile... 🤔 Currently trying to figure out Divinci Resolve and it is a LOT to learn but trying not to get too frustrated.

@@2GoRoam looks class! I can’t wait to get to the same point in life. What you did is inspiring and a great advert for those pursuing FIRE in the UK. How long ago did you start your journey towards FIRE and has your FI number always been the same? I always get a little nervous about targeting a lower FIRE number (say ~£500k) but then I also consider that I will probably not completely retire and will likely try to do something to make some side income (e.g. if this RU-vid channel takes off).

Trust us when we say, you won't regret it... we were very attached to our stuff but it feels like a weight has been lifted when we don't have to worry about all that any more. We did do a video on how we downsized but it was one of our first videos so wasn't our best... we are too embarrassed to watch it again but if you can handle it, here is a link : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EvMQkRV4x04.html Also there are a couple of really good documentaries on Netflix, the first is called Minimalism and the same guys made a follow up.

I have been planning to leave the USA since Jan 22, 2021, and I am so close to having the house empty (not sold yet but trying) ... I really liked your video style --- What video editing software are you using and are you using a specific company's video editor plug-ins (which ones) ... The editing and graphics are better than 90% of the travel vloggers on RU-vid.

@2GoRoam 2 года назад

Hey Mark! I typed this reply a couple of days ago but it didn't seem to appear.... Lets try again... Good luck with emptying the house, it does take time and we would just say not to put pressure on yourself, do it in phases and you will get there. Thank you so much for the kind comment on the videos! I use Davinci Resolve (free version) and do not use any plugins at all, everything you see comes from Davinci. I sometimes do some of the graphics in Powerpoint and then export for use in Davinci. Have only been using Davinci for a year and it is a steep learning curve, but it pays off and the more time I spend learning it is amazing how much easier things become. I can thoroughly recommend it. Best wishes Neil & Sarah

If it is something you did consider would you mind sharing your thought process as to why you ultimately decided to sell? Thanks
