Never in a foreign country (yet) but a friend and I did sleep in the car on a long weekend 'fun trip'. Saturday morning we left the Washington DC area for Williamsburg, VA to go to Busch Gardens (an amusement park). When we left there we went through Newport News/Hampton/Norfolk, VA and across/under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. As it started getting dark we found a little rinky-dink church on the side of the road and slept in the car in the little parking lot. The next morning we continued driving to Rehoboth Beach, DE (slept a bit more in the car before laying on the beach for the day). Headed back home to the Washington DC area that afternoon/evening. I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
This reminds me of family vacations in my parents car. At least you're not sleeping in the back seat with two annoying siblings. Our dad thought using the hose you'd find in gas/petrol stations were good to give our hair a wash. Your trip so far looks like heaven.
Move the front seats all the way forward. Lay down the back seat and scratch out in the back. Roll down the window and hang a tshirt and roll up for sun protection.
Yes, slept in car at a gas station for 2 night to save some bucks.... Things done differently to save money or time or any valuable resources are memorable!!!
If you only have 1-3 nights, sleeping in a car is brilliant because you have your transport and accommodation, and you can rent a car and travel anywhere you want for half the cost as you don;t need to book accommodation :D
I once slept in a car at a ski resort in winter. It was freezing cold and a terrible night. The next night my friend wanted to do it again but I refused and we booked into a really shitty hotel but it was better than the car. You guys get hardcore traveller bonus points for 5 nights in a car and still smiling 😂
Twice slept / hid in a disabled toilet cubicle in Geneva airport to go and watch Bolton play in Madrid then Lisbon. Think I got about an hour or two both times but was well worth it. Geneva airport shuts its doors to the public at midnight so I had to hide or be kicked out and as I was working as a transfer driver from the airport I had worked out that the toilets went without any cleaners going in from around 8pm till 6am so was safe to lock myself in one. Not my proudest moment but I got a free lift from one of my follow drivers and avoided paying for a room in one of Europe's most expensive city's. Winning
Well done for sleeping in the car. It didn't look very comfortable. We've slept in many weird places, especially when we hitchhiked from Thailand to Spain. We pitched our tent under the motorway in the Chinese desert, slept on our sleeping mats in back of trucks, you name it! 🙏😊 In Bosnia we camped in two different parks and one had drunk teens walking around. Luckily no one disturbed us. Looking forward to the next video. Baby wipes to the rescue. We've gone days on the road only washing ourselves with baby wipes and ambit of water and that's after a very sweaty days on the road hitchhiking. But it works! Thanks for sharing guys! And yeah, finding plug sockets whilst on the road can be tricky 😊👍🏼
Travel Beans Haha we're super comfortable at the moment. Hardly ever camp, don't couchsurf and stay in Airbnbs instead. It was easy to push ourself to camp in weird places when we had the big mission to get to Europe. Now we're just all over the place and not sure what the hack we're doing. 😊
Beautiful people beautiful lifestyle...always better to share with your soul mate! You will have thousands of stories to tell your grand children. Keep them coming guys.
This is the only way my friends and I do road trips. We rent a crossover SUV though. We don’t stop driving unless all three of us is tired at the same time. We try to do as many miles as possible by rotating drivers. So almost always driving. On those occasions where we all need to sleep at the same time we pick a spot like you did or a rest area. We put down all the seats in the back to make it as flat as possible and sleep laying down. I can see why those front seats were a problem. We use wet wipes like y’all did. We pack a cooler with cheap food so we save money that way too. We pack clothes of course but to be honest we only use half the pair we bring, that’s just laziness.
Can’t you let the backseats down and sleep there ? You really need a proper sleeping bag & some blackout cloth for the windows & some blackout eyemasks maybe, run the car engine & heater just before you climb into bed simple. All it takes is a little planning, admire your optimism and good laughs you had together ❤
here's a tip for when you can't properly shower. IF you can get apple cider vinegar, you can give yourself quite a good wash with just a bucket of water, adding the vinegar, and a washing cloth. this method, where you wring out the cloth and scrub all over your body, also eliminates the need for a drying off towel.
In the smaller towns around Spain air bnb can be a very good value. And the petrol stations that are only connected to the motorway. They usually have showers. Sometimes you have to search a bit.
@@TravelBeans I slept in the car once back in the UK in the winter. It was horrific. I had to poo in a bush at 3 in the morning freezing my nadgers off.
This is awesome haha, very smart.. we would definitely do this!! Especially since the Airbnb we had in Barca was so bad anyway! we never thought much of doing this because the rules for sleeping in cars are very strict in the US (aka in most places you are not allowed to). Great job guys!! And hope your next accommodation is a bit better 😂
Waking up to relieve your self is the best part? Nope been there done that just recently I traveled from California to Colorado I slept alone in my rental car kinda fun but not really, keep up the good work! Your videos are interestedly funny!
u 2 beans are crazy but u know i love it awsome vlogs now the car have u ever thought that maybe the back seat might fold down i bet u never checked that out lol
Oh , I bet you wished you could still rent the old Volvo Estate, enough room for a double bed in the back. You don't have a 12v charger, but modern cars no longer have cigarette lighters, or do they but often have a USB port for charging devices, often tucked away in the centre console. Have fun with the rest of your travels. Truck stops that have overnight parking have showers along with a lot of roadside services. 👸🧔💋💋
Yes, the USB ports are extremely useful for charging most of our things (camera, phone etc).. just not the laptops. A Volvo Estate would have been SO good compared to that tiny thing haha it wasn't too bad though..
😂😂😂😂😜. I’m not even lying I planned doing this whilst searching for a piece of land to buy in Spain and Portugal. I plan driving from UK though with a decent tent, and then if I find a land to buy ask if the seller would let me stay on it during the purchase process. All I need is reliable mobile internet because of work, so if anyone has any advice for accessing a reliable service that is consistent across both countries that would be helpful 👍🏽
We slept in a car for 3 days in the Canadian Rockies as hotels were $200 a night and let us tell you that the baby wipes were out in full force. Oh and it started snowing, so it wasn't cold at all.....got to do what you got to do eh?
This was so funny to see! 😁 Dion and I have the same idea in the big trunk of our Hyundai in good ol' expensive Denmark. I'm pretty petite, but with 1m83, Dion has probably gotta fold himself like an envelope. Gheghe... Pretty curious to how it'll work out for us. :p
That's ok guys.my daughter in the army swears by baby wipes..should have grabbed couple gallons bottled water for a night outdoor shower an hairwash..good luck
Brutal. But extremely funny! Too bad you did not rent a van. An air mattress works very well if you have a flat surface. I am not sure it's possible to sleep in a reclined position unless one is some type of power sleeper. Most other people are going to suffer under such an arrangement. Oooh something else -- neither of you had eyeshades or earplugs! Good things to have.
you dummies..... hihi, you had a Citroën hatchback. you could have folded the back sits flat and get a huge space. granted its not long enough to stretch you'r legs and you would had have to buy something to lay on since the boot and the back of the chairs is basically plywood covered in carpet, but it would have been much better than the chairs. a hatchback is the most versatile kind of car. you silly beans..... ;-) oh how i miss my Citroën...... love your videos guys.... have a wonderful day.. btw.. another quick tip, since it's a hatchback you can sit in the back with the chair folded and the hatch open and you get a great spot to eat in and in a hatchback you could also remove the back shelf and lay it on the wheel hubs and you get yourself a nice table. don't know if it would have worked in the c3 but in my xsara it did
Hi Bob! The game has already been and gone - the videos are a couple of weeks behind on real-time. We didn't get tickets to the actual game (crazy expensive!).. but we went to the fan zone and had an incredible night celebrating with all the other Liverpool fans! 🎉

It's actually rare to find 2 people to be so optimistic and happy to be uncomfortable and still laugh and have a good time. You guys are awesome
thanks dan! this was such a fun trip but definitely not the most comfortable haha

😂 amazing!! Oh how I wish there was a vlog of this experience for us to watch!
@@TravelBeans Haha yes it would have been excellent
I'm 190cm tall. In 1970, I crossed Australia driving a Honda Scamp, sleeping in the front seat, driver's side, beside the road.
This was brilliant! Hilarious also, by the way. 😂
Haha thanks!

you 2 are absolutely hilarious!! once again, great video!
Won it six times, In Madrid we won it six times.
Well done, boss idea, may do that for the 7th.
Good job
Video should have minimum 1 million views
Cute vlog beans. Yes, have been there, done that and agree, it wasn't as bad as I'd expected.
I absolutely love you guys and your videos. I laugh along with you!! Thank you.

interesting!! I'll definitely remember that!
I slept in a car for a few nights. I took an estate (station wagon) and an air bed. The rear seat folded flat-ish. It wasn't bad at all.
an air bed sounds like a DREAM!
In the smaller towns around Spain air bnb can be a very good value. And the petrol stations that are only connected to the motorway. They usually have showers. Sometimes you have to search a bit.
This is one of my fave vids for a while. Very funny and good story telling to an essentially simple subject matter
I think you are very resourceful! Good for you, it was fun to watch your adventure. 👍😊
hehe thanks so much! it was a pretty fun day actually :)
i slept 5 months in my jaguar XJ 5.0 V8 when I lived in florida, better I spent my budget for cars than for renting ;)
Nice. You can also put the sunshade outside of the windshield.
We think it’s genius! You save so much money to have an incredible experience in Madrid! 😊 you did well! We’re proud of you!!
Haha thanks guys!! 🙌
God bless your wife, mate!! :) Greetings from NYC!
You two are bonkers. Proper belly laughs when Emma woke up. I bet the car stank after all that garlic.
so glad you liked it and it gave you a chuckle! haha we laughed so much this day
@@TravelBeans I slept in the car once back in the UK in the winter. It was horrific. I had to poo in a bush at 3 in the morning freezing my nadgers off.
Very very nice! be happy even without pay so much money is very important :D
Proud of U guys :) #ThumbsUP
"Ah, genius. Ha haaaa Up yours oversized thing." 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I could see more of these types of uploads!
Would have been more comfortable putting rear seats down. It's the legs that get you in front seats.
unfortunately the rear seats didn't go down... otherwise that would have been great!
You have absolutely gone mad !!! lol
I think we've always been a bit mad... 😂
This is awesome haha, very smart.. we would definitely do this!! Especially since the Airbnb we had in Barca was so bad anyway! we never thought much of doing this because the rules for sleeping in cars are very strict in the US (aka in most places you are not allowed to). Great job guys!! And hope your next accommodation is a bit better 😂
You guys are CRAZY! :) :)
haha 🤪
AWESOME TRIP !!!!!!!! I LOVE IT !!!!
your team lost but at least you had a blast in the car-LOL you both are awesome!!! love your fun side of your vlogs:)
what do you mean?! LIVERPOOL WON! 🎉
haha thanks.. even though it was quite different from our usual travel vlogs, we enjoyed making this one
😂
@@TravelBeans LOL okay glad your team won and the fun you both are having getting the game. thanks for sharing.
Hilarious vlog....you guys are super cool...best wishes for your journey ahead💐💐
Waking up to relieve your self is the best part? Nope been there done that just recently I traveled from California to Colorado I slept alone in my rental car kinda fun but not really, keep up the good work! Your videos are interestedly funny!
u 2 beans are crazy but u know i love it awsome vlogs now the car have u ever thought that maybe the back seat might fold down i bet u never checked that out lol
haha unfortunately not.. it was quite a compact car so the options were pretty limited. it wasn't that bad really 😜

Maybe you can find a truck stop.many offer showers for not much money
Thanks Joan! We actually managed to find some after the first night - it was the best discovery of the trip! haha
Can't you flip the rear bench up to push the seats more flat?
unfortunately not.. there was still more room behind the seats but they wouldn't recline any further. trust me, we tried! 😂😂😂
YNWA from a Liverpool fan in Argentina .
Love from Indonesia 😘😂
This was so funny to see! 😁
Dion and I have the same idea in the big trunk of our Hyundai in good ol' expensive Denmark.
I'm pretty petite, but with 1m83, Dion has probably gotta fold himself like an envelope.
Gheghe... Pretty curious to how it'll work out for us. :p
That's ok guys.my daughter in the army swears by baby wipes..should have grabbed couple gallons bottled water for a night outdoor shower an hairwash..good luck
i like the two very much
This is Nice ❤️
better if u had reached out to yur viewers around Barcelona, surely one would offer a place to crash. Funny vlog though
You guys are so cute beautiful people great vibes smiling and happy please make more videos 💚
Slept in a ditch at the side of the road hitchhiking through Germany.
You what?!? You win.. that sounds far more uncomfortable than the car! 😂
@@TravelBeans On return journey, had a sleep; woke up, no companions, no money, no passport.
😮sounds like a crazy adventure!

would also do the same just to save money and be happy as well. 😊👍❤
Are you going to be able to go to the game?
Hi Bob! The game has already been and gone - the videos are a couple of weeks behind on real-time. We didn't get tickets to the actual game (crazy expensive!).. but we went to the fan zone and had an incredible night celebrating with all the other Liverpool fans! 🎉
You silly birds is all I can say. Enjoy....
