We are Corrin and Paul and currently we are on a 3 week motorhome trip to Denmark to discover the Christmas markets, there and in other countries like Germany, Netherlands and Belgium.
At the start of this weeks video we discuss the huge amount of migrants we saw in Gravelines, more than we've ever seen before, and talked about how we wouldn't want to end up involved in an opportunity to cross the channel.
We then continue our journey through France aiming for Germany.

Apologies if you've already done this but given you travel with your dogs I think a video focused on travelling with our 4 paw family members would be great. Everything from how they travel, securing them, pre travel vet requirements and how things vary across the countries and what you need to do to come home. Just a thought - I know others might have done this but for all those that follow you 😀

Hi guys what a great adventure. Yes I am having a blast watching you have fun. Shame about forgetting your cable. Have you found one yet?We are less than a month away from starting our adventure in our first motorhome a Rapido 691f. We are planning to travel from Calais down to Spain at a very leisurely pace. My husband noticed your seat covers and would like to know where you bought them? So looking forward to the next instalment plus I am learning so much from your experience and great tips and advice. Thankyou😊

Hi Corrin & Paul. Love the videos and am updating budgets for when I make the leap of faith in 2.5 years. In a fair estimate, what would be an average amount of miles you would travel a week (in retirement) taking into account rest days and major distances? Is winter time more campsites with electric rather than off grid stopovers? Warmer weather would be less electric sites I'd imagine. Stuart
@redsgotravels
@redsgotravels 10 месяцев назад
Good morning Stuart ! Thanks for the question, ok, we tend to drive no more than 3 hours a day , up to about 180 to 240 miles when needed , but we like to plod , get to destination and relax, so far this journey we have covered 900 miles in 6 days , including the run from home to Dover, once we get to final destination this will drop to a few miles and we just sit back and enjoy, ( currently in Denmark 🇩🇰 ) , we have 2 solar panels , 2 agm batteries and a power bank, the leisure batteries charge really well when we drive , the solar limited in the winter, but does catch some , if we don’t drive, we would likely need a hook up, we have not long left a stellplatz ( free aire ) in Germany with free electric hook up, some places have bollards where you pay as you go, so it’s a lot cheaper than the uk , there’s plenty of places to service the van ( water / waste ) all free, or a couple of euros.. running the heating / lights takes a bit of energy , the summer is easier to harness energy , so it’s a little bit more in the winter, but not too much if you find the right sites ! Hope that helps a little in planning 🎄🎄❤️ Corrin and Paul x

Great video as ever. I’m interested to know when you are parked up off grid and you put your heating on I take it it’s on gas but what speed is your blower and does it draw a lot of energy from the battery?
@redsgotravels
@redsgotravels 10 месяцев назад
Hi and Thankyou for your comments ! The heating system seems to be very economic, blown air via the alde heater, we don’t have it on all the time, the van is winterised , so fortunately very well insulated, we’ve never had a warning of low voltage, and turn the hot water on in the morning instead of leaving it on overnight, we upped the leisure batteries to 2 agm batteries and they are 110 amps each, the draw is not a huge amount at all , sorry for not being too specific, but it doesn’t really take much used economically ❤️❤️🎄
@micksparrow8214
@micksparrow8214 10 месяцев назад
@@redsgotravels that’s great information, yes I saw the battery upgrade you did along with the solar. At the moment we have a standard setup AGM starter battery with a 80amp/h lead acid leisure battery. I’m going to fit a shunt to measure our consumption before I make any major modifications. Currently we also have a 100w solar panel. As yet we’ve not tried off grid. We hope to visit some Britstops pubs depending on our consumption.
@redsgotravels
@redsgotravels 10 месяцев назад
@micksparrow8214 that’s a good idea , I think if you have room, you could add a second solar panel, it’s quite easy to do and not very expensive, but certainly research is key to work out what you need, if we can help, as ever please feel free to ask ! Thanks for your support ❤️🎄

Another great vid and i do really enjoy your vlogs. Germany is actually a very beautiful country as are the Germans. The further south you go, the more picturesque it gets...i was born and raised there! I am actually considering a trip out there with my brother to re-visit our old stomping grounds and call in on our relatives. My dad served 33yrs in the british army and during most of my formative years, we were based out there.

Hi lovelies ❤ great video - how weird were those bordery borders I wonder why they put the ones on the pavements on an angle ? 🤔 it looks cold but lovely and the lovely warm romantic meal you had in the van looked cosy 🥰 black coffee and marmite we will get on very well 🤪 Mark won’t though he likes his full fat milk and hates Marmite! Lol can’t wait for you to get to the Christmas markets with mulled wine and frankfurters 🥰 well maybe not in Holland but once you get to Germany there will be 😁 oh the Stellplatz was fab!!! Definitely popping that one on our list ❤ safe travels 🥰😍 xxx

Mary here from west Cork in Ireland, looking forward to your trip, we are just back from a months trip to the French alps and Switzerland. just a quick question regarding the dogs on the ferry. I taught dogs had to be in a cage to go in the pet lounge, as we have a golden retriever and would love to know i could do the uk route sometime as Brittany ferries from Cork change boats in winter and they had no pet cabins. Mary

Hi Mary ! Wow, sounds like you had a fantastic trip , I bet the scenery was amazing ❤️ we travelled with P and O , the dogs are very well catered for, all they ask of you is to ensure the dogs are on a lead , we let ours roam as it was only us in there ! No muzzles, cages or any other requirement, there is an exercise area for dogs ( not that big, but something) , I don’t think other ferry operators offer this , that’s why we stuck with P and O 🙂 hope that helps ❤️🎄
