เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 13 ก.ย. 2019
We are Lockie and Ash, two Aussies who having been travelling Europe in our self built homes (we've had and built 2 over the years).
We moved to Europe in August 2019, where we bought, registered and converted our first campervan in a foreign country. We spent 3.5 years travelling and exploring different countries around Europe, experiencing new cultures and just living life to the absolute fullest! In December 2022, we were hit by oncoming traffic riding off our first camper so we moved home to Australia to sort out the insurance claim. In August 2023, we moved back to Europe and built our second camper van to continue our travels abroad!
Follow us and come along on our adventures, giving you tips and knowledge on living the van life dream, as well as being your guide to the best spots to visit.

I am sorry you have to live this way.🩷
Well how the hell are you living, your opinion is duly noted however it's clear you've never lived this lifestyle, seems you're more follow the pack with your Siberian dreams have a good day
Poop infront of each other omg
😂 welcome to van living 🚐
I wanted to watch until the end but had to stop. There's a little video in your (very loud) music.
Im planning to move into a van in a year or so, my home life is not great... Any tips for a starter??
Try to live more minimalist, this will help with the transition. Only take things that you use regularly with you to the van. We hope you love it!
Have a friends sofa on standby.
Hi! I've got a few tips for you! So, let me preface this by saying I've lived in my van for over 3 years by now (in the US, so things might be different.) These are some tips I wish I'd known early. First, in some places, its illegal to camp in your van. Some cities have strict rules about it, sometimes its counties, and I personally stay far away from Tennessee because they have some weird rules for living in your car. Please make sure you know where you cannot stay so you don't end up in trouble! If you're single, like I am, you can use decoys. I've got a few things, male shoes I leave in the van, a few hats, little things to make it look like two people live in it instead of just a single female. Three, this one is IMPORTANT, always sleep with your keys and a safety item within reach. Will you always need them? No, of course not. But, you might one day, and there's nothing worse than needing to move during an emergency situation and having no idea where your keys are, or worse, not being able to get to them without digging through some stuff. Finally, always watch weather patterns! I don't know how many times I've gotten caught in bad weather because I was careless. Weather can be unpredictable, but keeping an eye on things means you're less likely to get stuck. And if you do get stuck, know your surroundings, and your rig! There's probably dozens of little things I could add, but these are the first ones to come to mind. Be prepared and be prepared to be spontaneous. You'll learn a lot about yourself and what you can handle. Good luck!
What y’all doing for work atm?
Lockie is a working as an electrician and ash as a cook
can I apply as video editor for cheap price. I like your reels story.

How, one question please...how did you make payment, did you pay by your bank outside Germany? I was wondering how payment works, as you know, you are in Germany, your bank is back home, how to trigger that payment from Germany? Cheers and good luck with van transformation...
We have a European bank account so we had no issues but when we bought our first van in Europe we did not so you just transfer the money and it takes a few days to go through. Same process regardless of your banks origin might just take longer
@@LockieandAsh tnx
Is it okay to drive a 7,3m motorhome uphill to Theth?
We drove our 7m van there, it’s fine, some hairpins towards the end were tighter but it’s doable especially better when it’s not busy season so there’s not too many cars to pass
tres belle réalisation et très bon gouts! toutefois je m interroge sur un point! les panneaux solaire a même le toit, n y a t il pas un risque de chauffe sur le toit , provoquant le rayonnement de chaleur a l intérieur même avec une bonne isolation?
Thank you ☺️ the solar panels are fine installed this way as that is how these flexible type are intended to be attached
It's an amazing hike. I loved it. Definitely steep, but worth it.
Yes we agree! It’s a spectacular view!
Thanks for sharing how you built your van.
You are welcome. We hope you found it useful 🙏
good job, keep those videos comming,
Thank you! Hopefully have the next one coming soon 🙏
Looks good
Thanks so much! We hope to keep the next weeks video coming 🔜 🙏
Good vid thanks. Can I ask what year your van is?
Thank you ☺️ It’s a 2012
Thank you so much for sharing this info ! Super helpful. 👏👏👏
So glad you found it useful 🥳
hi, what month was trip road trip taken ? thank you
It would of been February or March
Hi. Thanks for your information. How does the insurance go? Are you registered too?
The insurance in Germany? And the registration?
Why did you tyrn to a bukgarian procedure if you were pleased with the german service?
We tried and started the Bulgarian process first but as it was taking too long, we then found carturf
Thanks for all the valuable information. Why did you turn to the Bulgarian option if cartruf getmany were good? We are currently looking for an option to register our moho. Thanks.meira
You are welcome 😊 I hope you find the option that is best for you 🙏
When time of year did you visit here?
This was end of February from memory
i live there lmao
Je vis en Provence c magnifique !
Wilson Melissa Lee Barbara Hall Jose
lol y'all were too excited for the build 😂 try a checklist
Beautiful video. Which month and date did you visit ?
Thanks! We visited at the start of November 2022
What is the cost of a system like this and how often would you replace the batteries?
Imagine how many people have stood in that same spot in years past seeing the same beautiful site
Yes a lot! Although this hike was definitely not that busy compared to others
Great INFOs. AMAZING! I AM ACTUALLY LOOKING TO BUY IN GERMANY and REGISTER MY NEW CAR BEFORE DEPARTING GERMANY SINCE I AM NOT A EURO RESIDENT. I WOULD PREFER THIS THAN AN EXPORT 1 YEAR LICENCE I wish I can do my TUV in Mexico but as long the Paper REGISTRATION Look Right FROM GERMANYThey Give you teh TIP in MEXICO (The 4 years Temporal IMPORT PERMIT) How Many Year Maximum Registration we can Take in Germany? Here they ONy look the expiration date. What adress you give for a 1 year EXPORT GERMANY RED PLATES. Some stupid told me I Cant Give a Mexico adress. I dont Mind I will give a GERMANY ADRESS or ANY ADRESS in the World. So what Adress we Can Give for THe export PLate IN WORST CASE SCENARIO? Thank you so much for your answer
German export plates last for a maximum of 1 year. For the export plates you can have an address from anywhere in the world
Would love to see the northern lights up close
It’s definitely incredible & something you have to see with your own eyes! I hope you get the chance 🙏✨
Amazing views!
Just incredible 🤩
Honestly it’s sad as someone who lives here that people only think of Paris when it comes to France but there are so many other beautiful places ❤️
We agree! You have a very beautiful and diverse country 🫶
Perso je vis en Provence, bah je vous le dit c'est des clichés on a certe ça mais pas que
il y a 50 ans, c'était une région pleine de vie. aujourd'hui, tout est mort, c'est devenu un vaste musée à touristes, sans âme.
That’s sad to hear from a locals perspective!
@@LockieandAshas a local who’s been living here for 10 years, this is completely not true. Everything still has tons of life and potential.
The views looked spectacular. Love the scenery but not the edges. Bet you slept well that night.
They really were 🙌 haha this one wasn’t so bad 😝 it was a big day but a good one 😴
running water wave is so ear pleasing 😀😀
Yes it is ☺️
Yea i know its really beautiful down there we have a little vacation mobilehome ❤ it is sooo beautiful
Yes we think so too! A mobile home is a great way to travel around Provence 🚐
J'ai visité 90% de tous ces villages. Certains plusieurs fois ❤ Magnifique Région PACA
♥️
Absolument sublime ma Région ! ❤
It’s beautiful 😍
Maybe a dingo ate your baby😂

Her accent is hard to understand. Subtitles please.
Sorry never had any issues before. Thanks for the feedback
Sorry I'm late to your amazing party but can you give an average time of this type of conversion?
This conversion took us just over 9 weeks to complete. We worked full time on it
yeah...right !! selling disney stories again ?!!
Wtf 💀 have you ever been there mf
Not selling a thing! Just showing what we saw
This was helpful for climbing as I'm not yet confident enough to tackle scrambles so knowing I can get to that point without needing to do a scramble is useful :) thanks!
The last part of the hike was probably the hardest, it’s a gradual incline on the mountain side on loose rocks so just take your time! Enjoy the hike, it was epic 🙌
Hi! Could you please advise what camping area you stayed the night in? :)
We found it on park4night. It was a campervan stop that was connected to ford mechanic shop not too far from the centre
What a beautiful Island to spend a day or more. The colour of the water was amazingly blue. Gelato looked good too. Thanks for sharing.
Definitely recommend a trip ☺️ glad you enjoyed it!
J ai le plaisir d y vivre
tu as de la chance 😍
Pariel
On y crève de chaud 😅
