This is the human problem. Especially young humans. You always feel like there's something else to do. You never realise you already had it all exactly where you were.
It's always been our dream to cycle around the world and we were just renting whilst waiting for a hospital operation. We're sad to leave but there's a big ol' beautiful world out there and if there's all the beauty here, imagine what there is to experience in the wide world 😊🌍
@@joshandsarahride There must come a time in life where we accept what we have is enough because that's where it all really begins. Enjoying what you have is where you will find the most peace.
Sorry you have to leave. I've lived in a remote cottage in the Lakes for the last 30 years and there's no way I'm ever leaving. Best of luck in your new life.
It's sad to go but we never planned to stay. The sadness showed we enjoyed our time here but ultimately we're excited for the journey and future adventures that lie ahead 🌍🚲
Just came across you…. And you’re leaving! Best of luck to you both. How I would love that cottage though….. and those cats. I’ve done my travelling and now alone and 63, I want to find a home. May the sun be always on your faces…..
How bitter sweet! I couldn’t leave a beautiful place like that, it is my life long dream, but then I’m 70 and you are both young and about to embark on your dream! Wishing you all the happiness and luck in your new adventure and look forward to following your journey. Take care, you two young and beautiful people ❤❤❤
Thank you :) It is tough to leave but as we were renting and with our dream to cycle around the world, it was always temporary. Although it doesn't make it an easy decision, we think it's the right one for us. We hope to see the world whilst our legs are up to the challenge🌎Hop you'll stick around for the future adventures that await...🍃
Only got as far as 'accept offer' 😥. I am 70 and could not bear to leave such a heavenly place. Life is full of endings and beginnings, you are both young and have a whole world of beginnings still to come. So, fare thee well, you have both been a source of joy to me. 🚴 ♥ 🚴♂
They were feral kittens we rescued to find them a forever home as no shelters would take them in. We were their foster parents until we could find them a home. Im so glad we took them in as they would've died over winter as two tiny kittens. And as they'll be with friends we'll get regular updates. We did explain this all and their journey in a previous video, if you're interested 😊
@@joshandsarahride I didn't say you were doing anything bad. I just said I could never leave my pets behind and I repeat "I could never leave my pets behind".
Such a lovely goodbye. I just moved away from what I thought was going to be a forever home because I embraced a dream of buying a floating house. I took the leap, in part, because of inspiration from y’all. I’ve watched you embrace and find joy in doing things that may be considered unconventional to many and often hard. So far…super happy with my decision. Keep following your dreams!
Ah wow! Congratulations on your new floating home, what a joy! Living on a boat has always appealed to me. And so amazing you took that leap with all the uncertainty that goes with it, amazing! Thank you so much for your kind words and support :) Hope the move and currents and smooth for you!
I recognise that owl. I've seen it several times down at Whelpo. We already miss having you guys living up the road. It's an emptier area without you. But we'll continue to follow your adventures . Hope it is all going well. Dan and Maureen x
The night we spotted it we actually saw three! Which really took us by surprise! We miss bumping into you two. Do stay in touch and we hope to return to visit one day :) Hope you're enjoying the summer in Caldbeck :)
You are young, footloose and fancy free. I have loved watching your adventures from this house but go enjoy the world! Plenty of time to settle down…! You have had a taste of rural life and can return to it. I am excited for you both! Looking forward to following your adventures x
"Being sad is a sign of how beautiful this chapter has been" kind of hit me tbh, as someone who's about to leave the lakes to go to uni I feel the same mix of emotions as I know I wont find the same kind of beauty somewhere else but I'm also ready to fulfil my dreams. Anyway exelent video and goodluck with your adventure.
Loved listening to your travels over the Lake District. Josh you have such a calming voice, very relaxing, thanks for the ‘calming’ vlogs. Enjoy the next chapter of your lives, go conquer the world ❤
Thank you so much :) Really happy to read you enjoy the videos, that means so much to us. Also that you'll be sticking around for the next chapter and wherever the road take us🍃
I know that a lot awaits you but that was sad. I hope that Cumbria brings you back here. It really is magical and a great place to call home. Going to miss the cats! Take care of each other and stay safe. Hope the downhills are bigger than the uphills. All the best
Thank you so much :) You're right it's a truly beautiful place and we definitely see ourselves returning on day with a few more adventures and stories under our belts. Hoping for those downhills too! Thank you :)
So relatable. I sold a house worth of stuff and my partner and I moved into our converted school bus. We traveled around the states then sold our bus, lived in Denmark and now we’re back in the states. So hard and scary but worth it. I wouldn’t have traded it for anything. Good luck to you both! I hope the next phase is a smooth transition. Lots of rad people out here in Oregon and you can’t beat the views.
Wow sounds like you've had some incredible adventures 🙂 Yes we really hope to explore and experience people and the world. Can't wait for what awaits. The US is definitely somewhere we hope to travel through one day!
Good luck to two beautiful amazing people with a deep soul of love for life.🥰❤ Hope you have many good and fantastic experiences in the future. Enjoy it all, don't regret any of your choices. Life is short and speaking from experience nothing is promised for a long life with a healthy body. Has become very ill myself and does not regret all my sudden adventures and travels. No, every minute is a gift and just give it the full force of experiences. Take good care of yourselves and good luck, health and happiness with your further journey. Many loving thoughts and greetings from Liv Maria in Denmark.❤🙏😘🥰🥰
A lot of mixed emotions but as we get regular cat updates. we'll be sure to share them with you too :) They'll always have such a special place in our hearts for the journey we had together. Thank you!
I grew up going to a remote cottage on the shore of Derwentwater called The Warren. It wasn't up to standard to be an official holiday let so we got it privately for very cheap. The interior hadn't been touched since the Edwardian era when it was built. I mean literally, beds, furniture, kitchenware, ornaments everything still in a time warp. My Grandfather responded to an advert in the Guardian back in 1960, the only time it was ever advertised, and the people including our humble working class family from Lancashire remained one of the few families allowed to go (depended on how much you looked after The Warren). About 10 years ago, Lady Elizabeth (owner) passed away and left it to her nephew. He updates and changed the cottage completely, and now it's on Sally's Cottages for a price out of our league. I grew to know Borrowdale and a lot of the people there like the back of my hand. Those were glorious days, and when you left the house I'm your video it reminded me of the last time I left the Warren as it was: an Edwardian time warp in probably the most beautiful place in England. Cumbria has always had a magical home feel to me, and I will live there one day, unfortunately it was not meant to be this year, but it will come. I love your attitude about packing up and moving on - not everyone could do that. X
What a beautiful story Emma, I'd be very emotional every time I passed The Warren. I hope that you realise your dream one day, and end up living in a CA postcode area 🙂🙏
@@tonypaddler we go back once a year on "mates rates" which is still 700 per week. I still love it because of how special it is but because of all the decades of family memories there. The Warren is not as good in my opinion now it's been modernised, but still a lovely extraordinary place situated in the middle of Manesty Woods and with a front garden down to Derwentwater. Magical. But now everyone knows 😅🙄🤪💔
@@emmas3716 Yes, prices are ramped up in the LDNP, I book places just outside the boundary. I fully understand just how the modernization will have spoiled it for your memories, especially now that it has been 'discovered and invaded' by strangers! Something very similar happened to me with a cottage in Hamsterley Forest (County Durham). Now when I cycle or walk past it I get quite emotional. Oh well ... 😓
@@tonypaddler yes, I know there is incredibly value just outside the national park. Until recently I had a house in Great Clifton in (between Cockermouth and Workington) under offer however there was to much work needed to be done which I couldn't afford. I do like that area and it's only 20 minutes to Keswick
Good luck. Not really into following travels , so many doing that- but enjoyed the cottage life and deep dive on a special place that is on its way out.
It's just amazing what you've done and what you are about to do Sarah and Josh. Good luck, we'll all be with you on your journey and I can't wait to see what memories you create. Happy days ahead 🥰
There's mixed emotions here too. But we will definitely miss the cats, they've become such a big part of our lives. they have become so settled in their new home and we get regular updates which we love :)
We're not going to stop creating videos, we are so passionate about them so will continue to make videos and tell stories along the way. Thank you so much 😊 hope you'll stick around for the future adventures
Wonderful to watch this video. We are looking to follow a similar path, but later on in life. It is surprising how much stuff you accumulate over the years. So many questions and decisions and always the doubt in the back of your mind. As they say in life you dont want to be looking back and thinking "what if"? Looking forward to following your journey and thank you for sharing your process. It is a great help. 🌎🚴🖐️
I see plenty more countryside rides and we explore the world 🙂 We love nature and intend to seek it out as we go. Hope you'll stick around for the future adventures
I hope our videos will continue to create that calming vibe as they always have done :) That's the style of creating we hope to continue with making videos about all the beautiful places in the world we'll get to explore. hope you'll come along for the big trip
Another good one! Exciting times, I'm having some of these same feelings as I'm planning to head to Argentina on my motorcycle soon. Can't wait to see you two out on your trip. Enjoy!
Thanks so much :) Ah yes a lot of similar feelings I imagine. I think it's natural to have mixed emotions, means you're enjoying where you're at. But doesn't mean you shouldn't seize that opportunity to experience the world whilst you can. Home will be there waiting for you and your stories on your return :) Enjoy the road!
Good luck on your new adventure! Life is full of bye byes and new beginnings. Everything has it's time. Thanks for the amazing videos you make, they one of the most beautiful ones I've ever seen! You have a talent for video making without a doubt. I am curious to see where you are going. God Bless!
Thanks so much :) I agree, as cliche as it may sound this really feels like the end of one beautiful chapter and the beginning of an unknown one. It's exciting and a little nerve-racking but we're looking forward to the unknown and future adventures. Thanks so much for you support
It was only ever temporary whilst we waited for a hospital operation before living out our life dream of cycling around the world :) Thankful we can now pick up with that plan. Hope you''ll stuck around for suture adventures
Good luck to you two lovely people on your new adventure. Can’t lie that vlog was very emotional and the cats and the area made it harder as live not far away . Totally get what you’re doing though and you are still young , do it whilst you are still fit and able 😊 Stay safe and keep us all updated on what you are up to and how the cats are getting on . Are the cats staying in Cumbria with your friends or further afield ? Xx
Thank you so much 🙂 It feels very emotional to leave a place and loved ones we've become so attached to. But exactly as you said, we want to explore whilst we're young🌎 We will of course post regular updates and continue to make videos with the same chilled-out, nature-focused ethos as we explore. The cats have gone to friends who live locally to our family in the south, so away from their Cumbrian roots. But it does mean we get to visit them and get updates too🐾
Thanks for the reply , hope the cats settle in ok . Happy travels and will keep an eye out for your notifications on TH-cam and look forward to see what you get up to 😊
They're doing great, loving the summer in the south with a lot less rain than the north. They spend a lot of time playing with their new mum in the long grass in the garden and have the added luxury of a cat flap at their new home which they make full use of
Great video can’t wait to see what happens from here, hope the cat are ok and they like there new owners, would love to follow your adventures on strava ?
Thanks :) That's made my day! At the moment not an exact leaving date as there's a few things to tie-up but we will keep you updated as plans come together🚲
Absolutely mental selling that place. That’s coming from someone who’s travelled a lot. To find a peaceful home is not easy. But I respect they want to fly some more.
A suggestion for your big OE. Make a Super Cat Stove! As you have cats and therefore have cat food the cat food can should present no problem; This stove with a wicking liner weighs about 15 g and will boil 500 ml of water for just 25 ml of fuel in about 4 minutes. Great for the morning coffee and saves the Trangia for the main cooking job. I have used a cat stove for many years now and tend to leave the Trangia for longer trips where it excels. Check it out as it is efficient and a real fuel miser.
Good luck, you too , stay safe, take care! Are your sweet cats staying with your neigbours?😻😻are there gonna be more videos of your journey? Cheers from Iris from southwest Germany!🥰🙋♀️🌼🌹🍀🍀🍀
Thanks so much :) The cats have gone to a friend who lives quite close to our families, so we get regular photo and video updates and also get to visit, which we love! Yes we will be making videos as we cycle around the world, we will actually be travelling through southwest Germany :)
@@joshandsarahride oh great!😻😻😻pls tell me when you are traveling through my region, possibly I can give you tips and wave over the internet 😌👋🤗stay safe!!🍀🍀🍀🥰
@@sheilabuss8721 Yes they're surprisingly very settled already, probably a lot to do with all the attention and off-cuts from the local chippy they're being showered with. We also get to see them and get regular updates. They're still nature lovers who enjoy catching mice
Hi guys sorry not been around as much new job got me running all over the place mainly Cumbria and SW Scotland will binge watch to catch up. Atb Coops 👍🏻👍🏻🚴🚴
Hey :) Hope it's felt good busy and the new job isn't working you too hard! Sounds like you've been in beautiful surroundings! Hope you enjoy the videos 🚲
So going off around the world on 'adventures' - hmmmm - to my mind a huge mistake but I hope it will be fun. You already have everything you could ever want right there - the two of you, possibly a family one day, a gorgeous place to live. I'm a homebody so I guess I have zero interest in such a need for 'adventure' anyway, altho I have been to quite a few parts of the world myself years ago. Here's hoping you eventually see that this was actually the best you could ever expect in this world - but good luck !
It is hard to leave somewhere so beautiful but we were only renting and waiting for a hospital operation. All with the intention of pursuing our dream of exploring the world. We're lucky to both want that :) And we know home, wherever that may be, will always be waiting for us when the time is right.
I couldn't really make out why you would be leaving such an idyllic setting, but in one of your replies you said you were renting whilst waiting for an operation which explains everything. Without being harsh, renting and owning a property or the land on which it stands are totally different in terms of security and being able to feel a place IS yours to put down roots. So to my mind renting will always feel temporary. It is only when you legally own a property that you can call somewhere home. I know many will find this view contentious and disagree, but owning a freehold property no one can take it away from you unlike when renting circumstances can present themselves that you have to leave which some might say can also happen when you own a freehold property, yes of course, but the situation is rather different. So I fully understand why for you living in this place however idyllic was always temporary. Good luck in your travels and hope the op was a success. You have had a great 18 months there. Memories for life. As you say time to move on to pastures and adventures new. What better way to do it than by cycling around the world.
Crazy to leave a pretty safe home, abandon animals etc. We are living in the end times and if you aren't Christians you should have a hideout! You can read biblical end times prophecy and listen to Dr. Ron Rhodes on end times chronology.
You're crazy and mad!! How can you leave a place like that... I'm Cumbrian born and bred and love it. I would never leave my children, my animals or my favourite place in the world
Because life is about experiences. They've absolutely loved it in Cumbria, but it was their plan all along to go on a worldwide adventure. They're not crazy at all. Live and let live. I'm glad you're happy with your life, but don't put other people down because they're choosing a different path. I wish them well on their adventures. Good for them!
I mean I couldn't of said it better myself 🧡 We have absolutely loved Cumbria, the place, the people, the wildlife. But we are reminded that this is such a small corner of the world and we want to experience more beautiful places like this around the world, whilst our thighs are still up to taking us there.
Thank you so much for being part of this beautiful chapter! For more info on the cats: th-cam.com/video/j2Zn-QW7qu0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=b_cw4vbJBrb-jQ30

This is the human problem. Especially young humans. You always feel like there's something else to do. You never realise you already had it all exactly where you were.

And we convince ourselves there is a BETTER job; a BETTER partner; a BETTER life.

I hope our videos will continue to create that calming vibe as they always have done :) That's the style of creating we hope to continue with making videos about all the beautiful places in the world we'll get to explore. hope you'll come along for the big trip
You have so many adventures just round the corner. Beautifully filmed.
Yes! Exciting and unknown times ahead :) Thanks so much!
All the very best for your future endeavours. Love and hugs to you both. xx
Thanks so much :) Looking forward to the future adventures ahead!
Heart wrenching 💔 to watch but can't wait to see your new adventures and new bikes too!!
We feel the same, lots of mixed emotions but ultimately excited for what awaits 🚲
Another good one! Exciting times, I'm having some of these same feelings as I'm planning to head to Argentina on my motorcycle soon. Can't wait to see you two out on your trip. Enjoy!
Thanks so much :) Ah yes a lot of similar feelings I imagine. I think it's natural to have mixed emotions, means you're enjoying where you're at. But doesn't mean you shouldn't seize that opportunity to experience the world whilst you can. Home will be there waiting for you and your stories on your return :) Enjoy the road!
Good luck on your new adventure! Life is full of bye byes and new beginnings. Everything has it's time. Thanks for the amazing videos you make, they one of the most beautiful ones I've ever seen! You have a talent for video making without a doubt. I am curious to see where you are going. God Bless!
Thanks so much :) I agree, as cliche as it may sound this really feels like the end of one beautiful chapter and the beginning of an unknown one. It's exciting and a little nerve-racking but we're looking forward to the unknown and future adventures. Thanks so much for you support
Very best wishes to the loveliest of couples for safe and happy travels 🤗
Thanks so much Sue :) Hope you'll stick around for the future adventures!
@@joshandsarahride absolutely! Wouldn’t miss it for the world 🤗
How exciting! Please upload the next vid asap! 😅
😅 It's coming in a couple of weeks! Thank you!
All things will change, whether you think you brought it about or not. I prefer to let the changes come to me, as they surely will.
Yes change comes our way often whether we like it or not :)
Good luck 👍 will be following your future videos
thanks so much 🚲
Why? This location is so beautiful and serene. Why would anyone want to leave such a beautiful place?
It was only ever temporary whilst we waited for a hospital operation before living out our life dream of cycling around the world :) Thankful we can now pick up with that plan. Hope you''ll stuck around for suture adventures
Good luck to you two lovely people on your new adventure. Can’t lie that vlog was very emotional and the cats and the area made it harder as live not far away . Totally get what you’re doing though and you are still young , do it whilst you are still fit and able 😊 Stay safe and keep us all updated on what you are up to and how the cats are getting on . Are the cats staying in Cumbria with your friends or further afield ? Xx
Thank you so much 🙂 It feels very emotional to leave a place and loved ones we've become so attached to. But exactly as you said, we want to explore whilst we're young🌎 We will of course post regular updates and continue to make videos with the same chilled-out, nature-focused ethos as we explore. The cats have gone to friends who live locally to our family in the south, so away from their Cumbrian roots. But it does mean we get to visit them and get updates too🐾
Thanks for the reply , hope the cats settle in ok . Happy travels and will keep an eye out for your notifications on TH-cam and look forward to see what you get up to 😊
I almost wept. Bon voyage. Safe journeying. Take great care on the road. Enjoy the scenes, the people, cultures and the food.
What a blast. ❤❤❤
Good luck! Looking forward to your next adventures xx
Thank you :)
All the very best for your travels. Thank you for sharing I have enjoyed all your videos and look forward to seeing more. Many blessings ❤
Thank you so much :) Really chuffed you'll be coming along for the big adventure and what the future holds. Thank you!
Enjoy....💞
I hope the cats are ok. Good luck. X
They're doing great, loving the summer in the south with a lot less rain than the north. They spend a lot of time playing with their new mum in the long grass in the garden and have the added luxury of a cat flap at their new home which they make full use of
Godspeed on your journey!
All the very best for your next chapter..
Thank you so much :D
Great video can’t wait to see what happens from here, hope the cat are ok and they like there new owners, would love to follow your adventures on strava ?
We’ve been spoilt by you guys, what you have bought to us on so many occasions…. Thank you 🙏🏻
When is the next step starting?
Thanks :) That's made my day! At the moment not an exact leaving date as there's a few things to tie-up but we will keep you updated as plans come together🚲
Just found your channel on my feed, i look forward to seeing your future adventures. I have to brother cats the spit of your foster cats x
Wow you have really become master story tellers &film makers😊 Good luck on your upcoming journey😅
Thanks so much Andrew :) Really makes my day to read that. Thank you for your support, not long now🚲
This is brilliant.
Where will the cats go when you leave?
All the best on your future travels😊
Thank you :) We covered more details about the cats and their journey in our leaving a cottage video
Anyone else sad?
Yep
@@timward3539 Could not bare to go from such a beautiful cottage and the cats ,you are stronger than me!
Absolutely mental selling that place. That’s coming from someone who’s travelled a lot. To find a peaceful home is not easy.
But I respect they want to fly some more.
@@juliadickenson178 Not at all. They are about to embark on the adventure of their lives 🙂
@@gothicgorey It's rented.
A suggestion for your big OE. Make a Super Cat Stove! As you have cats and therefore have cat food the cat food can should present no problem; This stove with a wicking liner weighs about 15 g and will boil 500 ml of water for just 25 ml of fuel in about 4 minutes. Great for the morning coffee and saves the Trangia for the main cooking job. I have used a cat stove for many years now and tend to leave the Trangia for longer trips where it excels. Check it out as it is efficient and a real fuel miser.
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸🇺🇸Nice countryside video🌷🌷
Lovely farewell to a beautiful home 😢😍
Bon voyage Josh and Sarah - may all your dreams come true ❤
Thank you so much, hope you'll be coming along for the big adventure :D
@@joshandsarahride wouldn’t miss it! Let me know if your plan to ride in NZ.
Good luck, you too , stay safe, take care! Are your sweet cats staying with your neigbours?😻😻are there gonna be more videos of your journey? Cheers from Iris from southwest Germany!🥰🙋♀️🌼🌹🍀🍀🍀
Thanks so much :) The cats have gone to a friend who lives quite close to our families, so we get regular photo and video updates and also get to visit, which we love! Yes we will be making videos as we cycle around the world, we will actually be travelling through southwest Germany :)
@@joshandsarahride oh great!😻😻😻pls tell me when you are traveling through my region, possibly I can give you tips and wave over the internet 😌👋🤗stay safe!!🍀🍀🍀🥰
Your gorgeous cats are so happy and settled there bless them - I hope they have similar surroundings where they are moving to
@@irishussong8197 That's very kind :) thank you!
@@sheilabuss8721 Yes they're surprisingly very settled already, probably a lot to do with all the attention and off-cuts from the local chippy they're being showered with. We also get to see them and get regular updates. They're still nature lovers who enjoy catching mice
Hi guys sorry not been around as much new job got me running all over the place mainly Cumbria and SW Scotland will binge watch to catch up. Atb Coops 👍🏻👍🏻🚴🚴
Hey :) Hope it's felt good busy and the new job isn't working you too hard! Sounds like you've been in beautiful surroundings! Hope you enjoy the videos 🚲
Oh gosh youre so brave. Please take care always.
Thank you :)
Safe journey,hope you make it to Makkah 🙏
Where are the cats going as you cycle ? Xx
We covered the cats and their journey in our leaving a cottage video a few weeks ago :)
Good luck with your new adventures ❤ were will the wild the ocean and wind take you 😊😊😊😊
Thank you so much :) We're looking forward to following our senses and where life takes us..🧡
So going off around the world on 'adventures' - hmmmm - to my mind a huge mistake but I hope it will be fun. You already have everything you could ever want right there - the two of you, possibly a family one day, a gorgeous place to live. I'm a homebody so I guess I have zero interest in such a need for 'adventure' anyway, altho I have been to quite a few parts of the world myself years ago. Here's hoping you eventually see that this was actually the best you could ever expect in this world - but good luck !
It is hard to leave somewhere so beautiful but we were only renting and waiting for a hospital operation. All with the intention of pursuing our dream of exploring the world. We're lucky to both want that :) And we know home, wherever that may be, will always be waiting for us when the time is right.
Couldn’t have put it better. A reliance of external stimulation whilst approaching middle age is a red flag for me.
So going to 'quite a few parts of the world' was right for you, but isn't right for them?
I am going miss that house and I didn’t even live there, good luck for what comes next.
😅 It's a cool place, hopefully another tenant will get to enjoy it as much as us!
I couldn't really make out why you would be leaving such an idyllic setting, but in one of your replies you said you were renting whilst waiting for an operation which explains everything. Without being harsh, renting and owning a property or the land on which it stands are totally different in terms of security and being able to feel a place IS yours to put down roots. So to my mind renting will always feel temporary. It is only when you legally own a property that you can call somewhere home. I know many will find this view contentious and disagree, but owning a freehold property no one can take it away from you unlike when renting circumstances can present themselves that you have to leave which some might say can also happen when you own a freehold property, yes of course, but the situation is rather different. So I fully understand why for you living in this place however idyllic was always temporary. Good luck in your travels and hope the op was a success. You have had a great 18 months there. Memories for life. As you say time to move on to pastures and adventures new. What better way to do it than by cycling around the world.

What happens to the cats
we covered the cats and their story in our leaving a cottage video :)
No we get it, free yourselves and travel living minimalistic lifestyle living in the moment :-)
I live in London give me that rain!☔️💦
Haa there's a few locals who wouldn't mind swapping climates for a bit.
😢😢💜💜
Crazy to leave a pretty safe home, abandon animals etc. We are living in the end times and if you aren't Christians you should have a hideout! You can read biblical end times prophecy and listen to Dr. Ron Rhodes on end times chronology.
Go. Make your fortunes and come back to retire there . All the best for the future.
We'll definitely go and at some point retire, not sure about how making the fortunes will happen but I remain hopeful😅
I feel very sad now 😢
Pob lwc (Good luck0 - Looking forward to your videos of your world tour.
Thanks so much :)
❤
Good luck and enjoy your adventures.
I'm sure they can get a financing loan in London for an orchard business or maybe sheepery...❤😊
It would have been more authentic if they had said "goodbye house" when standing outside looking back.
Where are the cats xxx
You're crazy and mad!! How can you leave a place like that... I'm Cumbrian born and bred and love it. I would never leave my children, my animals or my favourite place in the world
Because life is about experiences. They've absolutely loved it in Cumbria, but it was their plan all along to go on a worldwide adventure. They're not crazy at all. Live and let live. I'm glad you're happy with your life, but don't put other people down because they're choosing a different path. I wish them well on their adventures. Good for them!
I mean I couldn't of said it better myself 🧡 We have absolutely loved Cumbria, the place, the people, the wildlife. But we are reminded that this is such a small corner of the world and we want to experience more beautiful places like this around the world, whilst our thighs are still up to taking us there.
What about the cats.
How could they leave? Perhaps the fifty weeks of rain a year?
Did I miss something?? Why are you leaving?
This explains it a little more :)
th-cam.com/video/j2Zn-QW7qu0/w-d-xo.html
I don't understand. Do you own the house or are you squatting? You say you "stumbled on it" and were "houseless"
We were renting :)
@@joshandsarahride Thank you - not that it's any of my business. Hope all going well
That cow in the beginning was very lame, does the farmer know?
