BACKGROUND STORY
We are steps2adventure, better known as Jordan & Annalise. We created the steps2adventure brand to inspire people to explore what the outdoors has to offer. Back in 2019 we always knew we wanted to travel, we were planning backpacking trips, train journeys.. you name it. Thankfully we came across the van life UA-camrs! As soon as we saw this way of life we knew this was it, this is how we want to live and travel. So, we bought a van… Not just any van, she’s a 2007 LWB Mercedes sprinter van, an absolute beast!! We have spent over 2 years converting her in-between work and some little adventures across the UK.
Come along with us for some epic adventures across the UK & Europe and everyday life in-between

Elodie Studler is an artist and created those colourful cows. She calls them the pop art cows. Based on Norman cows I think.
Ahhh no way
Head to The Shambles in York guys, defo like something out of Harry Potter, plenty of little shops, bars, restaurants in that area. Take a walk over thr walls, and call for a pint in Valhalla the viking bar 👌🏼
Bath is in southweston England in the county of Somerset.
Hi folks,
We travel to Normandy every year. If your looking to do something for a day or two Head up to the invasion beaches, start at Pegasus bridge then follow the coast road from Ouisterham to Arromanches to Port en Bessin Huppain to the American cemetery at Omaha beach, then on to point du Hoc, then grand camp Maisy to saint Marie du Mont to the church in Angoville au Plain (a must see) to Utah beach then back in st. mere Eglise!
It is honestly the best drive in Normandy.
If you need a good cheap supermarket go to Carrefour centre in Herouville -saint-clair ( it's a 5 min drive from Pegasus bridge) 😊
In York a place called The Shambles was Diagon Ally
Pizza vending machine...brilliant, I'll be all over that 😊
Crazy ain't it 🤣
They looked ace tbf
I'm from York and it's beautiful. The shambles is your best street and at the end is a little square , can't remember the name, but there's a bakery called the Cornish pastie shop or something like that and for years the Cornish pasties are better than in Cornwall and I'm married to a cornishman. Although we're French now and British . I think Mont Saint Michel is the 2nd most visited place in France after the Eiffel Tower, great off season, still expensive but ridiculous in summer with the crowds. We loved it but didn't buy anything 😊
Likely wholesale pasties made by WC Rowes, Crantocks at Indian queens went bust along with Brittons from Bovey Tracey Devon.
Mont Saint Michael is one of 7 monasteries all in a perfectly straight line from Skellig Michael in Ireland through St Michael Cornwall, France, San Michele Piedmont Italy, Monastery of St Michael Symi Island Greece and Mount Carmel Jerusalem, Israel, and how did they do that all them years ago, amazing, loved the Europe trip 👍
This Australian says you should visit Bath, in Somerset, then Cheddar, in Somerset, before heading to Cornwall. Kind regards, Stuart (and my Bichon, Ted).
A 99 in France would be € 7 😂 a great video 👍
Bath is very nice, but just so you know, there’s a clean air zone for Euro 5 and older vans. It’s £9 a day and catches a lot of people out.
I live opposite St Michael's Mount its literally 500yds in front of me, they charge a fiver for a hot drink as well 😂😂😂
Go to Bolton Abbey in North Yorkshire you will 💙 it.
Oooh Thankyou! 💗
York is great especially if you go to the yorvic centre and have you tried Whitby and draçulars castle.
Not tried that but will definitely have to!
@@Steps2adventurethey have many Cafe Neros in York and Hull
Greetings from Belleair Bluffs Florida USA. Fortunate to come across your channel. You are both great and informative. Love your little Pooch!
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant guys the island looked stunning doesn't matter were you go these days most places are out to rip you off 🤙🏻🏴
This place is where the walking dead was filmed in the Daryl Dixon series! Yous are quality keep it up
Careful parking in York we parked on a large council car park paid using the app when I got back had a ticket saying motor homes not allowed on that car park. It said on the app no vehicle restrictions on that car park but on the signs it did say no motor homes I used the app to pay so didnt see the sign. Was well annoyed and too rub it in further I am a camper van and there were loads of vans on the car park. I now ignore the app and always read the signs
Tbh I don't think we are going to bother much with the UK it's not really worth it way to much stress we are just going to focus on heading overseas ahaha😂
Guys go across and visit the Normandy beaches from the d-day landings, amazing and very humbling experience. 👍
Shambles in York is very old & maybe inspired Diagon Alley. Eat and have a pint at the Guy Fawkes Inn where Guy was born. See the Minster. Use a park & ride if you want to avoid the traffic and parking charges. There are some park ups and lots of caravan sites. Loads to see in York and Mr Chippy of course
You can get that fish and chips smell, without the mushy peas unfortunately 😂 on the íle d'oleron. It's a big queue but they're wonderful fish and chips, only open in summer unfortunately but it's the fish they catch themselves . It's at port cotiniere 😊
Come to York and walk down the Shambles if you’re a Harry Potter fan. Obvious place to see is York Minster and the city walls are a stunning walk around although no dogs allowed ☹️ but loads of shops and restaurants are dog friendly and welcoming 🐶👍🏻
What a punch mrs lol
😂😂😂
Hello You Three - greetings from Poland
An excellent video. Full of laughs, fun and loads of information about Mont St. Michel
I recommend a visit to Laycock in Wiltshire. Laycock Abbey was used for filming in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The witches cauldren is there to see
Glad you enjoyed it! Oh really? Love all the Harry Potter stuff 👏🏼
You two are great, one of my favourite channels 👍
Aww Thankyou!!
York Minster is fantastic to visit also the jorvik viking museum is very cool
Great video as always. Not heard of the Roman city of Bath Jordan 🤔. It is well worth a visit. Also, about 12 miles from Bath, lies the beautiful village of Lacock, where some of Harry Potter was filmed in the abbey. If you visit Lacock, you must come to my home town of Corsham, 2-3 miles away, and home to the famous Corsham Court. Peacocks roam freely around the town, and a lot of Poldark was filmed there
€10 😮 Had your pants down guys! 😂 cool video … we’re going in a few weeks so loads of tips 👍
I'd head to Spain much cheaper and weathers better
@@Steps2adventure Definitely but we have a housesit in France so no Spain this time 🙃
it's a bit wet in York just now the rivers been up and flooded the pubs for a change,and the knavesmires nearly back to being 2 fields not lakes,but you can park on knavesmire road by the race course.it's only about a 20 minute walk into town if you go the bishopthorpe road way,its in the top 10 uk shopping streets.the shambles is were you want to be for harry potter,and the jorvik center for vikings.you'll have to put puppy in the carry case if you want to walk the walls.don't come in school holidays it gets rammed.
Ahh Thankyou!!
@@Steps2adventure no worries,enjoy
hi you need to check out the Shambles in York city centre where Harry Potter was filmed its amazing
Nice! Definitely want to visit York
Many a time from Plymouth to Roscoff i've stayed in my motorhome during the crossing, just close the curtains and stay quiet
What an idiot. Why are people so keen on bragging about how they break the law. You are obviously too young to remember this, perhaps you will grow up one day. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS_Herald_of_Free_Enterprise
Watch from Huddersfield
Thanks for watching
Looks like a cold one ,Bath is in Somerset ,cider country ,we been a few times
Freezing! Oooh nice, is it good?
if you like you history ,very nice there but not been in the van so not sure on park ups @@Steps2adventure
...fish chips and petit poir
You have the option of having a hot hand made pizza or a cold hand made pizza to cook at home.
Oh didnt think of that!
@@Steps2adventureThey are really popular. Some of the little kiosks are actually manned at certain hours and automatic for the rest of the time. In general the pizzas are excellent. They are particularly useful in France where so many restaurants have very specific opening hours.
Ahh was thinking who would get a cold one as well 😂😂
York is nice just down the road from us, best of using the park & ride the shambles is right down your street jordan with the harry potter shop although you will probably have to queue as its very popular
Just stumbled crossed your channel .I am in love you se both great .I originally come from Southport so not to far from your home town .Have you been to the Harry Potter Studios in Watford it is were alit if filming took place for the film .My son was in the last film he was in Slytherin House part of Malfors gang.My husband and I are going to do what you are doing but a van and travel we can’t wait .Thank you for the great videos

Bad isn’t it!
First! :)
Thanks for watching
😢 nothing to do with your obsession of HP!! They are not castles either! 😊
Oh go away 😂😂😂
Why do you get a ferry that takes 6 hours I haven’t heard of that one. Channel tunnel is 35 mins and ferry from Calais is 1 and half hour
Didn’t want to drive all the way to Calais… also we like getting the ferry
@@Steps2adventure where in France do you get the ferry? Calais has a ferry 1 and half hour
@@marcoantoniomoreno2055 I know we’ve been on that one before. We got the ferry from Cherbourg as it’s a 6 hour drive from there to Calais so it was easier to jump on a 6 hour ferry to Portsmouth to save driving
