Well done for getting your visa! Love watching you guys as you are young and embarking on a new way of life (unlike me at t'other end!). Go explore and enjoy! 😀
Well done, you are going to love travelling in Europe, it's so camper/motorhome/RV friendly. Enjoy... looking forward to your vlogs. Might even bump into you both. 👍🏻
Well done, loving you're video, we invested in some wheel covers for our rv when in Spain to protect them from the sun, and also covers for the wipers, just used pipe insulation, cut to size have a fantastic time, looking forward to your next video
Great news🎉. I live round the corner from Crystal Palace and never knew about the campsite. Sad it's closing. Hope you got to walk around the park. Take care
Ha brilliant it truly is a little hidden gem! We did a little but didn’t see as much as we would have liked to due to having lots of meetings ha whilst there!
Great news on the Visa's guys. That seems like a real shame that the Crystal Palace campsite is closing for ever ☹ We would love to get an insight into the costs of your travels and living off grid. Happy travels
Another great video I’m glad you’ve got your visas. Looking forward to your travels and yes, it would be nice to know how much it costs on your travels. Stay safe. Looking forward to your next video. 👍
Good night Fern and Micheal ihope that you both are well and I love watching your you tube videos on your you tube channel I hope that you are enjoying your adventures in your RV please keep safe and warm please keep up your good work on your you tube channel
Congratulations guys on getting the visas, been following you both from the start, are you still enjoying the RV life? We’ve changed from a fifth wheel and bought a 38’ diesel pusher now and loving it, not sure if you’ve seen our channel but would be lovely to meet you guys in person one day too. ❤ Happy travels Scott & Di.
Hey guys ❤️ Thank you we are so excited as it means we can travel around without having to worry about the 180 days and leaving the Schengen zone!! We are still loving it but finding it difficult finding nice park ups in England / it’s starting to get super cold! Yes we’ve watched quite a few of your videos and live the new motorhome you have! Congrats on reaching 1k subscribers 👏🏼 Yeah definitely we could maybe meet when you guys head to Europe at the start of next year? X
@ it’s funny, I mentioned to Di while watching you’re video this morning how bloody well you do finding places being the size you are 👍 so well done 😊. You can basically just hang around Europe now for 9 months, we’re thinking about it for 2025/26 winter time now, we’re looking to do Spain and Morocco this winter starting January so fingers crossed that all pans out nicely. We will have to keep in touch while we’re over in Europe to see where you are and if we’re close by, that would make an awesome video for both of our channels I think 😂😂 2 American RV’s meet up and fight over a park up 😂😂
@ToKnowFreedom we're looking for a diesel pusher and they're a bit thin on the ground, love your stories, keep them coming, might see you on the road one day 👍
Your RV is large enough to fit a washing machine. A low energy, low water usage machine would save you a small fortune at laundromat’s. Drying the clothes would then become the challenge, although the new heat pump dryers are very economical.
The smoke alarms make an enormous noise when the battery runs flat after 10 years, and then people don't know what the problem is 😄. The battery can be replaced, if that is the cause.
Thought it could be that but we thought it made lots of little beeps when out of charge rather than actually going off. I think we are going to get a new one to be safe!!
Just an idea guys, Ive never had to empty a black tank like yours, but could you not have a couple of manhole keys at hand then park up in an industrial estate and pop the manhole cover open and empty direct into the sewerage drain? I can't see any issue with it legally, as it is a purpose sewerage drain? Great vid as always, looking forward to your Europe travels.
Love your videos guys enjoying your journey I'm moving from tik tok and starting my UA-cam channel my first video will be up soon. Keep up the great content
I’m so interested in your videos. My sister and hubby have just bought an RV and your info is so useful. Regarding your 6 month visa, did you have to justify why you wanted it and if so , what did you say. Also , was it expensive? Thanks
Aww amazing - glad that you are enjoying the videos and finding them useful ❤️ you have to show proof of funds (bank statements for monthly income and/ or savings), reason for visit (we just said for travel and our rough plan) and proof of accommodation (wrote a letter explaining we will be staying in our self sufficient motorhome and finding campsites/ parkups as we go). It was about £250 in fees plus travel expenses getting to the visa centre in London. But we think well worth it to have the extra time in the Schengen zone without worrying about going over your 90 days! Hope that’s helpful! We will probably do a dedicated video on it in future to explain the process better as we found it confusing and would have loved a video just explaining what to do! ❤️
My dog hated getting her nails clipped by the groomer cos she'd always catch one of the quicks. I had to muzzle head and almost put her in a headlock. Soooo....I bought a nail grinder off Amazon......so much easier....no stress or pain at all 👍🏻
Love your vids but have dog theft anxiety, I know you can’t take them everywhere but I think I’d have to close the front blinds so no one can see them….do you ever worry about it?
Not at all, we didn’t really explain in this video as we talked about it a lot in the last video. We got the French temporary long stay visa which allows you to stay up to 6 months rather than just 3 :)
We wanted to stay within the Schengen zone for 5/6 months so had to apply to a visa. It’s the French temporary long stay visa :) allows us to stay until May. I think you can technically stay for the 6 months on your visa and then use your 180 days on top. We need to come back to the UK at the end of April anyway so 6 months is perfect for us :)
I’m well aware! They’re newbies and obvs not aware as it’s not like Scotland where they come from and obvs don’t know about all the difficulties we are suffering down south due to places being advertised and thus being abused. I know that area VERY well and it’s always been kept quiet…… The NT will put up height barriers very soon.
Another enjoyable watch your both so natural Can't wait till you leave the UK and see where you end up. ❤
Thank you ❤️ us too it’s getting far too cold here!! 🥶
Well done for getting your visa! Love watching you guys as you are young and embarking on a new way of life (unlike me at t'other end!). Go explore and enjoy! 😀
Spoiler alert😂
Aww it’s always lovely to hear that - thank you 🥰
🤦🏽♀️😂
Well done you two....now heading for the warmer weather. I'm green with envy...see you guy's next spring xx
Haven’t seen the sun for about 2 weeks here haha it’s about time! Thank you 🙏🏼
Nice, just binge watched some vids and now look forward to the start of the adventure. All the best and stay safe out there guys. 😊
Amazing - glad you are enjoying! Thank you so much! ❤️

Ha brilliant it truly is a little hidden gem! We did a little but didn’t see as much as we would have liked to due to having lots of meetings ha whilst there!
Well done guys cant wait to see your Europe adventure 😀
Thanks Dianne ❤️ we are looking forward to getting over to slightly better weather - not seen the sun in over a week ☀️
Great news on the Visa's guys. That seems like a real shame that the Crystal Palace campsite is closing for ever ☹
We would love to get an insight into the costs of your travels and living off grid.
Happy travels
I know what a relief!
Yeah it’s such a shame as was a lovely little wildlife haven in London!
We will definitely start tracking for a future video! ❤️
Glad you got your visa’s looking forward to your next video😊
Congratulations on you two getting you're visa.. You looked as if you had won the lottery. Well done now go & explore & enjoy yourself!!!
Thank you - it honestly felt like it we were soo stressed thinking we might get rejected! 😂
Hi guys love the video s looking forward to seeing your adventures you have have a lovely week 😊😊😊
Thanks Andrew 😊
Spot on guy's we are looking forward to your trip around France 🇫🇷🏴👍, safe travels

Just found you guys loving your videos. Keep up the good work 💪
Thank you 🙏🏼 you too love to see that you guys are doing the same!!
So pleased you got the visas approved- happy travels.
We are so relieved! Thank you 🙏🏼
Could Fern's timing be any better 😂" Lovely walking through a town thats not full of charity shops" Just as the camera pans to an Oxfam sign 😂
Honestly we were laughing so much watching and back and noticing 😂😂
Another great video I’m glad you’ve got your visas. Looking forward to your travels and yes, it would be nice to know how much it costs on your travels. Stay safe. Looking forward to your next video. 👍
Thanks Clifford and yeh I think that’s a good video idea will get prepped for it 😊

Congratulations guys x
Just a quick comment to help the channel, for some reason I was as chuffed as you that you got the Visa's lol, well done 😊
That’s so lovely of you thank you ❤️
The lodge guys on you tube out their starlink on the top of their campervan. Congratulations on the visa
Will check them out thank you 🙏🏼
Well done for going for it, you wont be disappointed travelling round Europe I'm sure 😊
We cannot wait!
Well done guy's 🎉
Get the newer star link it's flat and can be mounted on the roof and be secure there 😊
I think they brought this out straight after we bought ours 😅
Well done both! Would love to see your costings, we have just sold our house and will be buying our first RV very soon and hitting the road, 😎
Congratulations guys 🎉 You will absolutely love it! Have you seen one that you’s like?
@ToKnowFreedom we're looking for a diesel pusher and they're a bit thin on the ground, love your stories, keep them coming, might see you on the road one day 👍
Look forward to the European trip
Your RV is large enough to fit a washing machine. A low energy, low water usage machine would save you a small fortune at laundromat’s. Drying the clothes would then become the challenge, although the new heat pump dryers are very economical.
We don’t really have space for it and we wouldn’t really want the extra weight!
Another great video guys. Are yous from east Kilbride?
Thank you! Yes that’s where we used to stay 😊
well hi you both so how are finding the uk at this moment as cant wait for when you travel to france cant wait for that 1
We are just counting down the days until we can get away 😂 too cold here already! 🥶
Ferns passport piccy made me laugh, you look too angry to travel. They'll be " don't let her in, she just wants to fight someone " lololol ❤ x
😂😂 let’s hope not haha ❤️

You two eat great food 😋
We do love our food and trying new things!! 🥰
Just an idea guys, Ive never had to empty a black tank like yours, but could you not have a couple of manhole keys at hand then park up in an industrial estate and pop the manhole cover open and empty direct into the sewerage drain? I can't see any issue with it legally, as it is a purpose sewerage drain? Great vid as always, looking forward to your Europe travels.
Very helpful comment thank you 🙏🏼 hopefully we will have less train or in Europe but we will definitely look into that when back in the uk ❤️
Contact The lodge guy's they just done it on there camper van now they have it on all the time .
Love your videos guys enjoying your journey I'm moving from tik tok and starting my UA-cam channel my first video will be up soon. Keep up the great content
Aww brilliant! Let us know when you upload so we can check it out! 🙌🏼
Regarding smoke alarms, have you double checked it's not a carbon monoxide alarm going off?
Yeah it’s definitely the smoke alarm but the carbon monoxide alarm used to always trigger before we got our battery upgrades!! 😂

Love your vids but have dog theft anxiety, I know you can’t take them everywhere but I think I’d have to close the front blinds so no one can see them….do you ever worry about it?
After what happened in our latest video I think we will start to be a lot more cautious with this thank you 🙏🏼
I take it you see numbers
Sorry for my ignorance but what visa have you got and what does it do for you ?
Not at all, we didn’t really explain in this video as we talked about it a lot in the last video. We got the French temporary long stay visa which allows you to stay up to 6 months rather than just 3 :)
I’ve never got a Schengen visa for staying in Europe for up to 180 days, what visa did you get?

@@gileshulm8852 no one gets rejected for these visas. It’s click bait. It’s like saying “did we manage to get a macdonalds today”
I'm just waiting for the gofundme!
@@yan0132 Several people on the Motohome Fun forum have had their visa applications rejected this year. You are incorrect.
Please don’t share your parkups esp those in Surrey! They’re talking about stopping it….

Why do you watch the videos then...you 🤡
@@Poppyliney even in Scotland it’s a piss take
I do not understand why you applied for a visa to visit an EU country because you don't need one.
You do if you want to stay longer than 3 months 😊
@@ToKnowFreedomSo what country are you extending the 90 day rule to?
