4 years ago, our adventures started right here in Ireland. And being back makes us reflect on all that’s changed since the Summer of 2019. 4 years of life. We've lived in Europe from our tiny van, been immersed in new cultures. I discovered my love for hiking and we’ve taken on some incredible peaks. We’ve experienced van life in far-flung places and grown a community. So whether you’re a new subscriber or have been around since the early days, thank you for being part of our journey.

Never been to Ireland I will have to visit this place one day and camp around it thanks for sharing guys ❤
Tania your voice (speech) is like music. 😃 Beautiful countryside.
Haha, well I’m a terrible singer so I will most certainly take this compliment, Cathy. THANK YOU 😍 😅xx T
You fell on your feet with that dog. What a super character.
Haha I could have broken my ankle but I would still hold on tight and protect Triggy - the most important asset 🥲 🐶 🎉 Thank you for watching, Kevin! Xx Tania
liked it before watching it:)
Aww, yay!! Thank you so much for your love ,Esra! ❤xx T
Trigger is hands down THE cutest Yorkie ever
Just watched that on a wet afternoon and anyone who needs a feel good factor boost should watch it also, it was absolutely wonderful. You captured Ireland in all its stunning glory, even when the weather was poor, it looked inviting, its rugged beauty, magnetic and definitely somewhere to be explored. Tanya’s narration is always so poetic and together with Adam’s film making expertise, capturing moments, colours and atmosphere, they make the best ever travel videos. A must watch again one, as usual!
Wendy… I can’t tell you how much it means to have your support like this. Adam and I feel very grateful to have you as a Patreon too - forever cheering us on with your thoughtful and encouraging words ❤ Sending you big hugs from us both xx Tania
@@JitsIntoTheSunset I'm grateful too, we have you two lovely people, making videos that are such a delight to watch! Wx
Im lost for words at your films. I’ve never come across any content as wholesome as this.
I actually came across your channel couple years ago and the first videos I watched were the Ireland ones. I’m a big fan of Ireland and Irish culture and dream to travel Ireland like you (I’ve only been to Dublin!). So seeing “back in Ireland” made me SO excited and the video was as good as I thought it would be + VAT.
The production quality, the choice of music, and Tania’s voice, accent and narration - it’s beyond perfect.
I’m working on my business so I can make money and have my time to myself and do what I want. But watching you guys makes me realise that THIS is truly what I want, and the best life can actually be, and usually is, the simplest life.
Thank you guys so much. ❤
Aw he is such a beautiful boy, and very active for his age, reminds me of our spike 🤗 he sadly left a hole in our hearts when he passed two days before his 16th birthday. Your Trigs will be going far longer I feel, bless his heart 🤗
Aww I’m so sorry to hear about your beloved Spike passing away, I can only imagine the heartbreak. But how lucky he was to have you love him and vice versa 🐶💕 Sounds like Spike and Triggy would have been pals for sure ❤ xx Tania
@@JitsIntoTheSunset they would have loved each other I’m sure, kindred spirits who loved adventure 🤗😍

YAY OH YAY!!!!!
and thanks again for the poem "Leisure" on your last post....had it memorized in a week and LOVE it.
@@JanelleVocate-AmesOh my goodness! That’s is the sweetest - Adam actually got me a beautiful Christmas present (he gave it to me early) and in it read the full poem. It really is beautiful and a thoughtful reminder of what’s important ❤ xx T
Fantastic videos I have travelled all over in my van, Iceland Norway Switzerland Germany Greece, And many more places,On the road, It's amazing, Keep it up guys live life
Wow, that sounds amazing! Norway is high on our list! Definitely something on our future list! 😊🚐 Adam
What a beautiful film. The production quality here is amazing and a joy to watch!!
Thanks!
I know that you may not be back in Ireland as these videos have been done in advance.....but wherever you are and whatever you are doing for the holidays have a little Christmas cheer on me.....merry Christmas guys!. Luv Cheryl p.s. great video...Ireland is on my bucket list...maybe someday....hugs
@@cherylavila954oh my goodness Cheryl!! Thank you so much for your generosity and showing your appreciation for our films in this way ❤ It is our pleasure to take you along with us to Ireland - Tanzania up next, hope you’re ready 🐘🦒✨💕 xx T
Such an enjoyable video, both filmed with flair and stylishly scripted, bringing Ireland to life for us, armchair travellers.
Thank you very much!! It’s always quite a challenge to condense down all the footage and find a way to tell the story of our travels in a compelling way that is a genuine reflection of our time there and also gets the emotion across. I’m always in awe of Adam and how he manages to do it - I wouldn’t know where to start because we filmed so much more (particularly footage of Triggy) 😅 xx Tania
we love love loved this film. you guys make wonderful films and we find ourselves immersed in them particularly this one, having recently got back from 2 months touring the emerald isle ourselves. hope you're both well and life is good xx
Thank you for taking us along on your amazing trips❤. 4 years already? Wow! So good to see jits again. I missed her😢
more than 50 seals for sure judging by that drone shot
These guys are just one viral video away, coz the content is just awesome.
There are going to be big for sure🤞
That’s really lovely of you to say! ❤ We appreciate you being part of our community, Ashish ✨
Always enjoy your videos and both of your nice natural personalities.
That’s very kind of you to say, thank you, James 💛
What a lovely film - so beautifully put together - also... and I think I speak for others here as well .. Cutest. Dog. Ever.
Aww thank you, thank you!! Triggy truly is the star of the show and we love it 🎥🐶🌟 xx Tania
It's nice to see you back exploring in Jits, made my day brighter on a wet rainy Sunday evening.
Thank you, Phil! 💛 We’re so lucky that Jits’ engine is behaving! Feels good to be able to rely on her for some more off grid adventures - we love the freedom that Van life gives us. Thank you for joining us 🚐💕 xx Tania
What a treat! Thanks for the views, the music, your joy. Love guys
Thank YOU, Ephram, for spending your Sunday evening with us! 🥹💕
Wonderful story telling. High quality production.
Nice to be transported back to August on this dark Dec day! ☀️
Yay!! Glad we could bring a little sunshine to you ☺️☀️🇮🇪 Thank you so much for spending some time with us 💛 xx Tania
I would call myself a medium long-term viewer. I subscribed after Colabs with Kinging It and Travel Beans. Just recently I finished your whole backlog of films... So seeing you in Jits with Triggy back in Ireland was great 😊
PS... awesome that you got to see the whales 🐋
Ireland looks amazing. It's been ages since my last visit. Always getting stuck in the UK ;-) Thanks your your vivid impressions. Looking forward to see your Tanzanian adventure, Günter/Nürnberg
What a lovely video! 😍I love watching you enjoy your travels! It instantly gives me a good mood!
Back home Tania! Hope you both had a wonderful tume
Love seeing the epic adventures mixed in the daily chores. Wonderful film! ❤
Haha!! Life is all about balance, eh?? 😅 You can’t have one without the other ❤ and the perks of Van life is that you can be doing the dishes with sheep right outside your window 😂 Thank you for joining us, Stina 💕 xx Tania
maybe (just an idea) you can start each video with a short summary of, "still on our way through Ireland, eventually sailing to Norway, we ...". Basically just the big context in 10 or 15 seconds. Would love to understand / get reminded a bit. But as I wrote in the comment just before this: beautiful video :)
That’s a good idea! We do this sometimes cause we agree it helps set the context 💛 xx Tania
Watching from Ireland. Enjoyable Watching. Trigger is adorable 😍
Trigger is the best!! 😎 🐾 he made our trip so much better! 😊
Wow such a beautiful amazing vlog. The scenery especially the colour of the sea was breathtaking.
Thank you very much, Mel!! 😍 When the sun shines in Ireland, the beaches look like we could be in some sort of tropical paradise 😅 xx Tania
Hi guys 👋 great to see you again.
Wow, Ireland 🇮🇪 is fantastic, it's definitely on my bucket list of to go to places. I love the fact you can experience 4 seasons in one day. Some wonderful park ups, views to die for. Great filming guys.
Thank you 👍 🐸
Haha absolutely!! Ireland’s reputation for the unpredictable and ever-changing weather is totally accurate 😅 It certainly keeps things interesting 🫢Thank you for joining us on this trips and hope Kermit is treating you to some wonderful adventures too 😘🐸✨ Tania
@JitsIntoTheSunset thanks Tania, yes Kermit is definitely my best friend, we've been to Eastern Europe, Scotland, Wales and Cornwall this year 😀
You guy's have a lovely Christmas 🎄
Best wishes, Si 🐸
@@Kermit-Siwow that’s quite a year you’ve had!! Here’s to even more great memories in 2024 🎉 Wishing you all the best for the holidays too ❤ xx Tania
Always waiting for your films! 🫶🏼
Your films are just exquisite!
Happy New Year you two!. May 2024 be everything you dreamed of. Cannot wait for video's to start coming again. If you ever come to Ontario Canada you have a place to park for as long as you want....or stay in our trailer on our Land Your old lady friend in Canada . Lol...yes...I am old enough to be your mother...but not your granny.... haha hugs and God bless you both. Xoxo
Great to see you guys back again and in beautiful Ireland ❤ can't wait for your Tanzania adventures 😁
It’s always a pleasure to see you here in the comments, Angela! In fact, you are one of our ‘top commenters’ of our channel 😍 Really appreciate that you take the time to message us after tuning into our films, each and every time 🥹💕 xx Tania
Hi, I was in my bed and reluctant to walk out of the door. It’s been few days hard for me to step out the door. After watching this episode, I had the courage and positive energy to walk out. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the weather though it was raining. I even saw the rainbow while walking🌈. Thanks for sharing your trips.❤️
Oh wow! This is just a beautiful message - thank you so much for sharing! I’m sorry it’s been a tough time for you lately. While you take all the time you need to feel through the sad times, remember that nothing in life is permanent. Just like the storms and the rain ‘this too shall pass’ 💛 xx Tania
Great video guys, thank you for the history lesson of Boycott. ❤
It’s so nice to see you back! Now I’m going to settle down, cup of tea and watch this on the big tv! ❤
Yay!! So cool to know that you’re watching on your TV, Linda! Tag us on Instagram and we will reshare ❤ xx Tania
pelangi yang cantik ❤
Thank you so much!! Ireland always has the best rainbows indeed! 🌈 🇮🇪 Tania
Welcome back to the old sod. You were so lucky with the Whales. We did a boat trip out of Dingle last July, even posted on instagram with the same drunken Sailor sound track you used, but we never saw whales. May your good fortune follow you to Tanzania.
Such beautiful views!!! Always wonderful to see Triggy enjoying himself, the perfect travelling companion!!! 💛
Another corker guys, the teaser on your next trip made me tear up. You really are so gifted ❤❤❤
This means so much to hear, thank you, Ann! I’m glad you feel this way because this is exactly the powerful emotion that Tanzania left us with 🥹💕We look forward to sharing it with you ❤ xx Tania
Amazing video - the whale watching looked fab!
Thank you so much, Valerie! I don’t think I will ever tire of whale watching!! 🐳💕 xx Tania
I’m always in awe of your cinematography & colour grading - all your films are so sharp & vibrant ❤️
Your videos are amazing, Lovely people thank you,
Beautiful, and beautifully shown. Ireland is certainly photogenic.
There’s no other you tubers we enjoy watching more ❤
Loved that you’re loving Ireland 🇮🇪 what a beautiful country and the Whale, wow ❤ Love that Triggy is back in town 🐶❤️🐶
Take care all of you and Happy Christmas 🎄 xx
We appreciate you so much, Lynn! ❤ We notice how you always take the time to cheer us on with your kind messages which keep us encouraged to keep going, keep filming and putting ourselves out there 🥹💕 THANK YOU xx Tania
I really should visit Ireland but I feel that by myself maybe difficult.. you captured so will the Irish coast . Thank you !
Love that you two have held on to your tiny charming van and haven't went with the new spendy Van's like all others seem to do 💜😉🏞🚐
Indeed this takes me back to your beginnings which got me hooked on you guys. Jits still has style and uniqueness amidst all these newbie vans on the road. And this time no complaints about breakdowns. What have you done to him?
You’re absolutely right… we have been so lucky on this trip. NO breakdowns?!?! 😱 It must have been the luck of the Irish on our side… an early Christmas miracle 😂 but on a serious note, we have invested in lots of new bits for her including starter motor etc. so one of those must have done the trick (for now) 😅🤞xx Tania
Wonderful!
Ireland is beautiful when we get some sunshine 🇮🇪
It really is!! ☀️ Thank you for watching, Denise 💛
We wish you a merry christmas and a happy new year full of beautiful destinations with Jits. Greetings from Cologne.
beautiful video
Thank you, Mads ❤
trigs is class.
So beaitiful, as always, but it also feels special you going back to Ireland.
Thanks Angela!! 😊 lovely to see your comments popping up across our videos! Yes, Ireland is a special place to us. Perfect to explore by van too which helps! 🚐 😊 🇮🇪 Adam
Yet another perfect travel film 🤘 Can't wait to see the full Africa story! (Been following along on Patreon 😶)
It means a lot to have you as a Patreon, Chris! We appreciate you very much 💛 Yesssss…. We absolutely cannot wait to share our Tanzania series!! 🎥🫢🦒🐘🌟 xx T
Absolutely amazing video guys ❤️❤️
Thanks so much you two!! You’re so lucky to have the beauty of Ireland at your doorstep ❤ xx T
Love your energy ❤
The Wild Atlantic Way is so beautiful and, as always, you guys have captured its magic perfectly. We enjoyed van life there last April and it was lovely to see some of those places again. Thank you!
I thought Jits retired?! Grand adventure. Trig is so cute!
I'm always pleased to see you guys rock up in my subs list. I love your little dog, I've seen him in some of your other vids, but I can't recall when or how you acquired him. Did you do a video,? because if you did, I must've missed it. Great video as always. 💕
Hi Gail! It’s always our pleasure to see you here 😍 We don’t have a specific video explaining about Triggy’s story but my mum and I rescued him 11 years ago from the animal shelter in Dublin. He was in their care for 6 months in rehabilitation after being attacked by another dog, which is how he lost his eye. They believe that Trigger was used as a ‘bait dog’ in bulldog fighting which is illegal in Ireland but clearly it still goes on. Triggy was estimated to be 4 years old when we adopted him and so we celebrated his 15th birthday during this Ireland trip. Although he lives permanently with my mum in Dublin, it’s been incredibly special to be able to take Trigs on our adventures to Italy, U.K. & now this Ireland roadtrip. We love him very much and he certainly loves all the attention he gets from us 🐶💛 xx Tania
Great to see you back in Ireland. Tried the link for the whale tour but not sure it’s the right one 😍

That hike looked EPIC 😍 another beautiful film guys, we're noting down all the spots for our Irish trip next summer! PS Triggy just gets sweeter by the second, what a good boy ❤
Thank youuuuu!! He is SUCH a good boy!! 🐶🥹💕 and he loves being the star of the show 🌟 That’s super exciting that you’ll be in Ireland next Summer, we will be excited to hear how you get on 🇮🇪 Thanks for always showing us so much love, you two! Xx Tania
What a film, looked glorious ❤ and makes us want to visit Ireland next!
Great to see Tiggy again 😊
This video was so incredibly beautiful! I really, really loved it. Your laughs are also contagious. :) Thanks for this treat!
Beautiful!! Hugs! xo
Triggy 💛and your storytelling and cinematography💛💛
❤️
Thank you, Skye 💛
I love your cinematography and commentary. Wonderful video
Wonderful to see you back...and in Ireland!. Such a beautiful place, when it isn't raining 🤣
If the van is rockin dont come knockin
Stunning, as always. You guys could film a trip to the local shops and we'd all watch. Can't wait for Africa!
Perfect vlog.💚
Thank you so much, Sheila! 🥰
Hi ya Tania and Adam,amazing video,the views were awesome, the. Whales 🐳 travel up the Qld coast during breeding season, you can see them from the land but Harvey Bay is a good spot to explore. Take care and stay safe cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🚐🐳🌟❤️
Barry… you don’t have to tell me twice. We are coming to Australia!! It’s just a matter of time 😅🇦🇺🎉 Hope we get to meet in person when we do! ❤ xx Tania
Hi Adam and Tania….what a stunning video…how beautiful Ireland is ❤I’ve never been, so am living vicariously through you lol! I’m sure there were a lot more than 50 seals on that beach haha….and wow the whale! Just amazing. Love Triggy who’s just living his best life. Best wishes Julie 😊
❤ from india
Thank you for being here! Adam and I would LOVE to explore your country one day ❤ I have only been to India once and that for a volunteering trip in Kolkata. It was a very emotional and special trip xx Tania
So beautiful! Even more beautiful seeing Trigs... I can't handle how cute he is! What breed is he? ❤️
Thank you, Natalie!! 😌 Triggy is a Yorkie mix but since he is a rescue we don’t know HOW exactly he got so cute - his beauty secret, I guess 😅🐶💕 xx Tania
Great camera and editing work, as usual. That little slip Tania made with Triggy in her hands had my heart stop for a sec. And I am with Triggy about sleeping in the bike trailer... Look forward to catching up with you guys somewhere in the next few years.
Thank you, John!! You and Triggy have the right idea… the bike trailer is we’re all the cool kids hang out 😆 We will catch up again in the future I’m sure! Can’t believe it’s been 3.5 years!’ 😱
@@JitsIntoTheSunset Yeah! How did that happen anyway? I turned around and boom.
Triggy in the bike trailer was everything!! Also loved the dolphins and whale sightings.
Wow! I loved this episode especially the whale haha finally :) but the shots in your next video look insane!!
Hey Maxi!! Omg yesssss…. After our quest to see whales in Costa Rica and then Iceland, it feels like a massive reward to get to experience this whale in my home country 🐳😱 and to see her slapping her fin like that in apparently quite rare so we felt EXTRA LUCKY!! 🎉 Thank you for being here and watching until the end… Tanzania blew our socks off 🧦 💨 and we cannot wait to share that adventure next 🎥🦒🐘 ✨ xx Tania
Wow that is awesome! I actually can't believe it was in Ireland of all places also haha. And I'm from England but still have not visited Ireland yet but now I have to go ASAP@@JitsIntoTheSunset
@@Maxi-333I know!! I’ve lived in Ireland for almost all my life and I had no idea either… just goes to show that there are treasures to be found closer to home that we tend to think 😅 Hope you get to visit one day 🇮🇪🙃✨ xx Tania
You know what, the film is as alluring as yours always are, but I have to say (weirdly) I always love the colour (and fonts) you choose on your video titles, they are always spot on ha! We are also doing a mini van trip to see some of Pals fam in Ireland next year, so this has got us excited! Chris 😊
Great to see you back ❤❤ Tanya do you ever drive jits ?
Thank you so much, Suzanne! Always great to see you here ❤ xx T
@@JitsIntoTheSunset ❤️❤️
@@AbbyAndAlbitooooh I just saw that you added a question about me driving Jits… I wish I could but I don’t have a driving license (that’s a project for the future once we settle!) xx Tania
@@JitsIntoTheSunset ahhh okey xxx
Heyyy, first comment but have supported you both from the start! It would be our dream to follow your footsteps and achieve what you guys have done so far!!! Could you please help me… what video editing software would you recommend??? Thank you, lifewith4inavan xxx
SoundCoreSpeaker looks cool. Nice video
Wow
Such amazing scenery out there! I would love to visit Ireland one day. Stay safe and stay joyful my friends! Love the channel. 👍
Wooo!! I like your channel name 🤩 Thank you so much for watching and hope you make it to bask in Irish sunsets one day 🥹🇮🇪 xx Tania
Really hope you went to Donegal
How magical to see the whales, dolphins,and seals. Are either of you getting time in to scuba at all, or have any upcoming trips?
Wonderful footage, and as always compelling storytelling.
Ireland is on bucket list. Thank you both for sharing 🇮🇪
Hey Melissa!! Thank you for being here 🥰 That’s a great question… we are still planning to head back to Gili Island in Indonesia so that I can try for my diving masters 😍 I keep thinking about the world underwater and how it fascinates me - I must return!! 😱 xx Tania
i love wakanda
Hi, great Chanel! Could you tell me about that 2.0 petrol engine? I'm thinking of get boxer like this . Cannot wait
It is heavy on fuel ?
🇮🇪👍👍😎🌈
Looking to buy a 2.5 model slightly different shape i watched a video recently where you where having problems how reliable is it as a genral
💚🤍🧡💚🤍🧡💚🤍🧡
Annie!! Aww thank you for the lovely configuration of love hearts 🇮🇪😅 how fun!! Xx Tania
Hi Tanya! I am from India. You guys are such a cute couple. I had one super random question. Is jilts 136 " wheelbase? Or smaller?
The dog leash is too short guys,.
Hey Nicolas! I would love to have Triggy on a longer lead (or no lead at all) but this is the exact one that he has had for almost a decade since we rescued him. The reason it is a short lead is because he can be unpredictable with other dogs. He was attacked by two dogs before, one took his eye and the other bit off a chunk of his ear. This all makes Triggy defensive and so having a shorter lead means we avoid any bad surprises in case he is in a spicy mood and barks at another dog who might in turn nip him or worse. Thank you for caring about Trigs 🐶💕 Tania
Thanks!
Oh my goodness! Thank you so so much for the gift of $10, that’s really lovely!! 😌 xx Tania
