    I have watched from beginning and I think you really need to think hard about life on the road especially in winter, you do seem to go all in to things that just don’t work, and lose money.
    I’m sorry but when you were in your car you were not always happy, the jobs you had were problematic at times, you didn’t get on with people you worked with, you were freezing in winter!!!!!!!….. I disagree you actually can get jobs, the problem you have is keeping them.
    You are very impatient, DBS checks do take time…
    It costs to keep a vehicle on the road, let alone if it breaks down on you…… please think hard and consider pros and cons…. Good luck x

    I live alone, I see where you are coming from, living alone can make you more insular and lonely, I used to be so outgoing, due to life changing illness I have had to retire early, finances ok to live until retirement then what will be will be, although I have got small pensions.
    Mother of four children, nanny of four grandchildren and two dachshunds, and I still have my mum at 62, I know I am lucky 🍀
    Good luck with this venture, I admire you greatly.
    Life is for living the best way that suits you x
    My husband died at the age of 59 and there was no way we ever could have seen that one coming, my second long term partner died of cancer after a two year two battle with inoperable liver cancer.

    I often relate to you, and I use your videos to help guide me (I see my future self in you). There are so many moments you've shared that have resonated with my soul in a very honest way and I want to thank you for this. Been watching these videos for ages, it's sometimes quite scary to see how tough you have it sometimes, and super scary to recognise the way you react in myself (because those pains are very real, and those external and uncontrollable factors often the same) but then on the other hand, it's so beautiful and endearing to see you battle on and find your wins. Your little successes throughout all your videos are printed in my brain, and i sometimes catch myself calling upon your moments for inspiration, as i travel my own way through my life. You're a true wild one, and i hope i'm as free spirited as you are when I get to retirement age, I wish i could buy you a fancy van to say thanks!!! Thanks for sharing these, may your future be blessed with more beautiful adventures. Thanks again

    • @travellinglite

      I'm so glad if I can offer anything that can help people. I do try to be as honest as I can in my conversations , and this has got me into trouble, I am still reeling from the comment a long time ago when someone said I was horrid about a bike rider, (they got in my way or something) as sometime I do say things without thinking, but really mean no malice about things. So I will keep on giving you my thoughts and opinions and keep bouncing back, hopefully, from bad moments. Keep watching.

      That reminds me of Scotland. Can't remember where I was exactly but I just kept driving north and all of a sudden I was on this road that went on forever and there were no buildings or cars, just the wind. It was scary, but just so beautiful.

      Yeah me too. Sad loss. But maybe I can find something this time bigger and more liveable in, if you know what I mean.
