Not the best start to Vanlife UK experience. We broke down on our first day of our Scotland NC 500 tour - check the video to see how we got out of a tricky situation!
We did end up visiting the Isle of Skye and the infamous Fairy Pools.. and they were spectacular.

Scotland was spectacular. We got lucky with the weather when we did the NC500. I'm looking forward to these episodes. So much to see in Scotland and showing the beauty of it is a great idea instead of cramming everything into one or 2 episodes. I hope you saw Puffin Cove. It's probably the most underrated spot on the 500.

Exquisite scenery! I absolutely love waterfalls, I would have trouble tearing myself away from that area. Thank goodness scenery is just as beautiful when it's cold, and it's not crowded. You are on the trip of a lifetime, it's understandable that you don't want to swing a camera at every turn. Enjoy your travels and we'll throughly enjoy what you share. Love your mode of transportation, hopefully it gets good mileage. Have a great time, stay safe and GOD bless

Just came across your channel obviously the algorithm is working. What breath of fresh air you two are! Great content special interest for the NC500 hoping to do it in our 8.2 meter van. We went to Skye last September in our caravan. Absolutely fantastic place. Looking forward to more content.

Sorry we missed you when you were here, the price of fuel in Motorway service stations is usually 25p per litre more than anywhere else, so yes the prices are crazy. Sorry you picked the wettest spring to come for a visit. Looking forward to your next video to see where you went next lol... take care both

I thought we were the only ones silly enough to hit the northern hemisphere in the cooler months. 😀 It is actually our favourite time of year for travelling. Except when you have breakdowns. Jeez that must suck. A normal car rental you could get a replacement car reasonably quickly but for campers it could potentially throw a huge spanner in the works. Glad you could get a loner instead. Scotland looks magical. We've never been to the UK so Scotland really does look ideal for a road trip. I love it when google says 7 hours to go.... then 9 hours later. 😁 Pablo in the opening shots makes me wonder. What is he doing while you're away? Friends or boarding? On our recent trip to Vietnam our greyhound and cat cost us around $2k for the month to board. The biggest expense of the trip - including air fares for the fam. 🤣 Fabulous video again!

Thank you Shane 😊🙏yes we are deliberately off season travellers 🚐🤩Pablo was staying at the “dog cottage” surrounded by luxury and being pampered with massages and special homemade food it was about 3k for his stay 🤦‍♂️

@@SandVan we have moved into HOPE😜 , it's been about 3 week in , n we are totally making it work but to b honest I'm Struggling at the moment with my flow ..... I have none lol as our new stove hasn't worked since we got on the bus ,my overhead cupboards are too small 🤦🏽‍♀️, n I obviously have not down sized enough 🤦🏽‍♀️,we are parked near a busy road while Terry finishes an important job till July , n it is really tight with 2 big dogs ,also my dogs r limited to outdoor time as they have a few wild dogs that randomly come onto this property n fight with Moji . Sooooooo I've decided... change of plans ... No one else knows yet but I'm going to our land in 2 weeks solo🫣... Well with 2 dogs, 15 egg layers , 60 meat birds, 2 goats and 2 bee colonies 🤪 , n Terry will come up on weekends , crazy right ...I know, hoping I can one with the bears and wolves n moose on a big piece of land lmao 😜 I just feel I can be way more productive there than I am here . Anywho thanks for asking , happy to see life is treating u both amazing 💫 Sending so much love to u both 😊

@HOPEbus it does take a while to make the transition and we’re still downsizing now even 8 months down the line , I think it took us about 2 months to really get into the flow of vanlife , you learn to enjoy the hum of roadside living and it’s sometimes hard to sleep without it lol 😂 I hope you’re wilderness adventure works out more suitable for you though it’s nice to be unrestricted when on the road 😊
