We're Phil and Kayleigh, a husband and wife living in rural Bulgaria with our two children, Alex and Ember. It's always been our dream to live a more self-sustainable life off grid. So, we've sold all our belongings, escaped the rental rat race and bought a plot of land. Complete with a derelict house and 3 barns, we hope to create our new life mortgage free. We've faced lots of hurdles already, so hang on tight as we show you highs and lows of moving abroad and starting again.

Hey everyone, Sorry about the quality on this video! It seems to have rendered in SD (720p) rather than HD. I'll make sure the settings are correct on the next one! Thanks again for watching, we all really appreciate it. PKAE.

Once the land has been bought could you site a static caravan on the land.

hey maybe a tip good to see u back btw ;) for ur road i might know a fix iff thats possible in bulgaria tho, but when a demolition company breaks down concrete buildings, they often make the stone smaller for easyer transport, in my country they eventually have to pay to dump it aswel, so often when u aproach those company and ask them iff they can bring u a few truckloads of smaller/concrete stone, u can devide it all over your driveway and it makes it easyer to drive when they are pushed in eventually of the weight and stuf, would also make water less functional to keep u stuck. Dunno iff its possible in bulgaria tho but thought id might share the tip as it litterly costs nothing, they happy they can dump it somewhere, i did this often for forest roads.

Bulgarian Internet Speed is actually one of the fastest in the world and makes it ideal for remote online work. The speed varies where you are, but in our little village we have always had mobile signal - actually better signal than back in Ashford! We have a video coming up on our internet set up so we will be sure to put the speeds in for your reference. 👍

Hey again. Thank you so much again for the information you give and awesome info on your videos. It’s hugely enjoyable to watch and thoroughly filling me with excitement for future plans to potentially move to Bulgaria. just a quick one regarding your travel across on the eurotunnel. all it says on the web is AGW load 3.500kg. My van weight is 3.100kg. looking at your van and the caravan how does that work are you allowed both on and what’s the weight limit? I also want to drive my 2019 Vauxhall Vivaro van across, so curious to make that journey at some point to obviously take things across. Just curious about the weight.? You seem to be way over with that load.? 😂 how did that work? TIA
@OffGridWithTheUdens
@OffGridWithTheUdens 7 месяцев назад
Thanks for the kind words. Weight wise I have no idea we turned up and got loaded on no trouble. We certainly were very heavy both with the van and caravan and the land rover and trailer (both separate trips) never had an issue. They might be more sensitive if you're going on the double decker carriages. Due to our height we were only in a single decker. Hope that helps. 👍

The Eurostar is for passengers only and departs from London St Pancras. The Eurotunnel departs from Folkestone and is for vehicles. In this video we used the Eurotunnel. 👍
