    ⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
    We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. Then we took our van further than she had ever been before to the very beautiful Turkey. Enroute we stopped off in Spain for a few weeks where we experienced every van lifers worst nightmare, we were robbed and they stole all valuables in our van. But now we are back on our feet, fully MOT’d and back on the road through Europe before we experienced another vanlife nightmare... our van caught fire! After the trauma of that we had a massive change of plan and have now made our way to Japan. We enjoyed a three month Japanese Adventure and are now back in Martha ready for some more adventures.

    We have our own rescue Highland cow, he lived in our van when we travelled the Scottish isles. It is somewhat disturbing they have so many trapped on the inter island ferries. Our grandson now looks after him. Unfortunately we couldn't post his picture for you in the comments. Enjoying your Scottish adventure.

    So glad you made it up to Durness and all it has to offer. I think everyone is shocked by how stunning the north west is the first time they go there. Great to see those roads and mountains again. The last Tim I was up there were highland cows walking around freely near the beach you stopped at after Smoo Cave. They were so cute and gave you a look that you knew wasn’t to be messed with 😂

    Positive vibes, no insulting peoples intelligence with fake drama, you found some nice spots on your travels.
    Interaction with local people is an area you don't seem to film , some banter with the local people adds a real dimension to your experience.

    • @phillyandkeely

I think and hope you will see more Highland cows as you travel east. Anyway you had an experience you’ll never forget with your friendly highland cow.

    Finally found a Highland coo. Driven those knarly roads earlier this year. I am on the NC500 now!. Parked up at Bonar Bridge. Lovely free carpark by the river. 24hr toilets. Just up the road, Falls of Shin, full motorhome service parkup with free water, pay disposal of toilet waste and electric hook up. Excellent place to stay, forest walks and falls of Shin river. Enjoy yourselfs.

    Just catching up with UA-cam vids as we’ve been on Isle of Harris and internet signal was naff in cottage . It’s ok though got a life and looked at the views and read loads ! Love you two , take great footage as always.. we stopped at Achmelvich in a cottage up on the tops ( nearer to a secret smaller beach round from the main one ) about 20 years ago with my parents and our young kids ( now in late 20’s ) much quieter then ! Still looks amazing though . It was there that set us off on nearly always going to Scotland for holidays! Keeley, glad you got to see your highland cows and Philly knew your Bruce Almighty reference straight away , loved it !! Will watch your latest vid soon . Keep entertaining us please you really are one of the best van lifers on UA-cam 👍xx
