    I’ve wanted to comment for a long time. I’m an old lady who has been viewing your UA-cam for a long time. I find you both wonderful, adorable, highly motivated and creative. One question: if you and your wife have a baby, what adjustments would be needed in the van? Please keep up the great content and I appreciate seeing a loving, committed couple on UA-cam. ❤️❤️🙏🙏

    @timothyking8650 Рік тому +6

    Just a heads up, the quality of driving in NZ is pretty scary (by locals and tourists). Also, when planning trips add extra time, while it's not a big country, the hills really add a lot of time to your trips. Also, I can't stress enough, especially as you head south, sandflies can and will ruin some camp spots.

    I think you got the vehicle transfer cost mixed with the Registration cost,it's bout $200NZD to register a car in NZ,we'll it was slightly less when I moved,and you have to keep the vehicle roadworthy, there are costs to take a vehicle for a warrant of fitness as well.

    Very lucky to find a legitimate transaction on a vehicle far far away. Sometimes we just have to do what we need to do, eyes wide open of course. Tell us how to get a driver license, ID and insurance etc. as well as a mailing address for your local bills or how you spend while there.

    Taku you're making me nervous standing on that ratchet strap - only because it isn't closed! They can suddenly release if you don't close them properly, that's why it's illegal for truckers to get that one wrong.

    🌴 hey you two, I think the van is a great deal , ya it’s not like your big van but this isn’t a forever van , when you said you were putting a roof rack on it I thought you were putting a large basket style up there not just roof bars and a storage container, but it leaves room for maybe a solar panel? And a small power station set up , maybe you could do a roll up rope ladder on the side 🤔 can’t wait to see were it takes you , beware of hobbits 😄👊🏼✌🏼
