My hubby, Rob, is desperate to get a camper van (I’m not that keen!). He’s 6’4” too and your new van does look very nice! Problem is, we have two (getting a bit old) cats so we wouldn’t be able to just take off without making sure the kitties are looked after. The idea of just upping sticks and driving somewhere without any plans appeals to me! I watch loads of TH-cam van live channels. I just like home comforts (or hotel 😂)! You are going to have such an exciting year this year!
Excellent hope you enjoy, we are a bit older and love the total freedom it gives us, weekends away, pub stopovers in the Yorkshire Dales and our best is the Bavarian Alps which we have planned for September this year, back on track for us after the horrible COVID period, enjoy your van and best wishes from me and Barb 👍
Thank you Paul. The Bavarian alps sounds amazing, bet you can’t wait, I hope you have the best time. We hope to go see some of Europe in our van next year.
Lovely camper! You will love the freedom on the road, its amazing! I'm sure like the rest of us van owners you learn as you go along.. Storage is probably the number 1 issue, 😂 however my tip would be take bare minimum as you find you wear items more often than you would at home. Those clothes packs are good, pack down small and if you buy 2 different colours you know who's are who's when looking for items. Good luck and happy adventures. 😊
Thank you Lorraine. We actually have our first overnight stay in the van this weekend.. very excited. I will definitely have to learn to pack light and I love the different coloured storage bag idea. Thank you 🥰
Imagine you've found out by now. But your pop top isn't secure by just tying the strap. It should have a rachet on strap to fully seal & secure. I'm just half way through my conversion. Hopefully finished next week.
Love it! Something me and tay are looking at when we come home for sure. How u getting up to the top bed? I think been tall we would struggle. Look forward to seeing first trip! 😊
Yes! We can go on trips together! We will be sure to show you this in our next van video as it’s quite simple to get up there. You could just throw the kids up there 😆
@@CharlotteJordan87 well that would certainly be the plan with them lol. I just love the idea of driving and if tay was in the back can make a brew 🤣 saves stopping.
@@pritch3699 I grew up with my parents having a camper van and we went away in it all the time and I have great memories from it and even days out it makes better, very exciting xx
@@CharlotteJordan87 well Tays parents have had them since she was young as well been down Newquay and that and always enjoy it. Feel like kids r great age to get one now. Well I look forward to seeing the journeys on urs might help choose the right van lol x

Lov every inch of my self build transporter, no better feeling in the world sun shining loading up at Tesco and just setting off with no plans. Enjoy.
I cannot wait for it! Thank you so much ☺️
Very jealous, you have yours already… I cannot wait to order ours.
Just a tip, get a Diesel Heater for when you are not on a Camp site.
Thank you yes I wouldn’t want to go without heating off grid 😆 how exciting for you. You’ll love it x
