Thanks so much for watching you lovely lot.. Who’s excited for travel content again? Coming very soon, whoop whoop😁😁.. Like our new shirts and mugs?.. Check out the full range here; the-expawers.creator-spring.com/?
Very exited!
What I like about your channel is that you are both down to earth and you do affordable travel in a normal van . There are not many channels like this some are so far removed from reality and what is affordable to the average person , I have unsubscribed to those type of channels. Thank you for keeping it real .
You’re welcome, just us being us, that’s all we can do! Know what you mean though with some channels; Like watching celebrities I guess, Nick and I are certainly not celebrities 😂😂
@@theexPAWers Yep and some like to flaunt their wealth
I would never be able to afford to do any of this, and the van is far from "normal"... especially now.
One thing I really enjoy about your videos, are your healthy relationship.
❤❤awwwww, Thankyou☺️❤❤xx
Hi you 4 love your videos so look forward. To seeing your videos I’m coming to Spain end of th month ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Phew ….. you really have inspired me and many others. Well chuffed fot ya 😘😘😘
Bloody well done you two ! A hell of an achievement all round. Enjoy using it now.
awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx
Don’t worry I’m sure most people are with you for your honesty in your reviews and your communication skills. Nothing wrong with trying different things. I’m based in the UK and you’re the only channel I watch for reviews and advice, I’ve looked at others but no match to you. You’re down to earth and honest 👍
How nice is your message 😊.. Thanks so much, we appreciate it.. Have a lovely weekend ❤
Yay! Well done and it’s great to see you both so upbeat with the completion. Viewers need to remember, you don’t have a film crew following you or a post-production team working on all the editing. Instead, you guys do everything and it’s bloody fantastic!!
I love the blue above the sliding door; if you open the blinds and it’s a bit murky, that vibrant blue is a constant reminder the bad weather will pass and blue skies will return quickly.
Your unbuild/rebuild has been great to watch and I’ve so enjoyed your journey.
Travel time - bring it on!!!
awwwww, Thankyou so much.. Good to hear your feedback and yes we thought the same for above the doors and windows.. Can’t wait to share the upcoming travel vlogs ☺️xx
I have to say I totally disagree with Sarah's thoughts in the nicest possible way 😂😂
your vlogs have been very entertaining funny and informative. You guys are amazing together very watchable one of the best channels out there. Well done and happy trails to come.
❤❤
Favourite van people. Glad you can now enjoy the fruit of your labours. Go and have fun.
Thankyou so much ❤️ x
I’m truly amazed you don’t have thousands of more subscribers… you’re lovely.. entertaining.. genuine & inspirational! Safe travels guys wherever your path may take you 🌟🌸🌟
Thank you so much!! 😁
What an achievement! You guys have made it all look a lot easier than I'm sure it was. Can't wait to see your further adventures 😊
Thanks so much! It definitely was not easy.. One of the hardest things we’ve done.. Never again!😂😂
Woo hoooo, finished. It's looking brilliant guys, proud moment. Love the colour scheme. I think you'll be really comfy in this van, it's got everything you need, sorted. Looking forward to seeing your travel Vlogs once again. It will be lovely if you can get those bikes on your garage space, they look amazing. Fingers crossed all is well with the paperwork. See you next week xxxx
awwwww, Thankyou Liz.. Very excited about packing up the van.. Just the paperwork to go and we’ll be ready to hit the road ❤
I love the splashes of blue. Surely Nick's table should be painted blue too?? 🤩
Thanks, I’m sure that table will soon get coffee and red wine stained and need to be painted blue 😂😂
You guys did a fantastic job on your van build and finished it off beautifully! I really like how your magic carpet on the walls turned out too! Looking forward to your travel vlogs now! 😊👍🐶🐕🚐
Thanks so much.. It’s been a crazy 4 months for sure ❤
"Thanks for sticking by us" you wallies ... you are a pleasure to watch and though I do feel your awkwardness with the builds bits ... you both wear it well. Adventures ahoy .
Much love u2 xx
U4 sos xxxx❤
What you’ve achieved is amazing…no doubt about it. Sheer hard work, creativity and patience! Thanks so much
Thank you so much! 😁
Nick reminded me of Blakey from the TV show "On the busses" with his clipboard 😆 Great to see it all completed guys she looks great. 👍
Brilliant van build you should be very proud of yourselves. We are x
awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx
The van is looking amazing 🤩

Oh, well done guys on completing the van build . I'm really looking forward to seeing how you get on with the change from Vinnie once you're on the road. Good luck with the paperwork, and I hope you get the awning sorted.
Thankyou so much ❤️ x
Wooooohooo!! 🤩🤩🥳🥳🍻
It's looking blooming brilliant, massive well done to you both! 😃😃
And that is for sure the best table I've ever seen in my whole entire life. 😄
😂😂.. Thanks so much.. The table😅😂
Congratulations guys! Blood, sweat & tears has paid off! Lovely, Lovely, Lovely van!! 😍😍
Congratulations on getting the van done 🎉
Thankyou so much ❤️ x 😊
We are so pleased for you, you did it and we had total faith that you would, the Van build is finished!
You are both so happy in this blog and understandably so and it’s great that the fur babies are able to get into bed all by themselves. I do wonder though, where are you going to sleep?
Great blog And let the adventures begin.
All the best.
Congratulations guys🎉 You did it! Thanks for sharing the hard work you did and the result is absolutely beautiful and amazing!❤❤❤
awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx
Well done to you.
Be great to see you rolling.👍🙏
😊😊 xx
Well done you two, the van looks really good, I can't wait for your first travel vlog in the new van. The doggies looked so well settled in too. Thanks for the flight. Jo in France 🇫🇷
Thankyou so much Jo❤️ x
Well done, you 2. You have done brilliant , so much to do and you have done it , you should be very proud of yourself. Xxx
It’s been a hard few months and glad we got there in the end, van is going to work perfectly for us and the doggies ❤
Love your colour scheme and your t shirts.
Thankyou so much ❤️ x
legend bloody heroes you two WELL DONE
The two humans on their Fiido's, with their Fido's (Danish nickname for dogs) in their lightweight trailer!
PS: There are 3 (elderly) bike riders in my village, I often 2 of them with their dogs in a trailer, and the last one he has a "Christiania Bike" with a big box in front, for his Labrador, groceries, etc.
Just like it's normal to see parents with 1-2 kids in trailers, most kindergartens also use trailers with 4-6 kids in each, to go on bike rides. It's fine to bring your dog on a bike ride IF the dog enjoys it too!! And it's not too bumpy, etc.
But as it's not usual to see in many other countries, and if it isn't a place where drivers are used to seeing and respecting bikes - with or without a trailer - don't put kids or dogs in bike trailers if you don't feel it's very safe in traffic where you are.
❤❤❤❤ /Pia
Never apologize guys, the build was all part of moving forward. You're there now woohhhoooo ❤
I think the carpet is a good idea it will give more insulation and sound proofing . I love the different shades of blue it give a beach feel.
So I reckon you might have finished the van. Well done. Enjoy.
😊❤
So well done, you two - you've worked so hard and done a brilliant job. Now you can enjoy your lovely van.
You didnt fail
You didnt meet the deadline.
That is not failure.
It means the hands on the clock wound faster than your hands worked.
Give yourselves a
Hip Hip Hooray
You've done brilliantly
Well done your van is looking amazing. Look forward to the full tour. Loving your colour scheme. 🥰
awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx
Carnt believe it’s been 4 months of building its flew by for me , it’s so nice seeing you both so excited to finish don’t know were you get the energy from❤
Fantastic job well done it’s been exciting and I feel like I have been on the journey as well!! I feel knackered so god only knows how you feel! Hope the wine was a good enough celebration 🎉
Hi sarah & Nick , never seen you both smile so much when you announced ..... your done van finished . You've worked so hard but it's paid off guy's it looks great . Love the blue 💙 and the breakfast shelf is a great idea . Looks like the dogs are enjoying it & are all ready for the first trip out . Well done guy's ..... great job .
Oh did I mention the breakfast bar ?? Great job Nick 👏
Looking forward to your first proper adventure xx
Whoa! well done you guys, you have done an amazing job and i wish you many years of happy travelling. Have a good week, fingers crossed for the paperwork. Love to the doggies xxxx
Whoop 🙌 Thanks so much for watching..😁
Love the build,love the colors,love the holes,love the episode❤❤️🔥☁️🌈🌈☺️
Thanks so much😊
I like the color scheme you have chosen. Blues, aqua, white.
18:36 in, thought that was Nicks leg sticking out of the cupboard 😀. Well done on completing. Been a great journey to follow.
Thanks 👍
Nice! Fold the handlebars down and drop the seat and those bikes will slot into the garage perfectly. Add a bungy cord to keep em tidy against the side, job's a good'n.
YAY!!!! I'm so happy for you guys. Throw Nick's list away, It's done. Let's go, my bag is packed. I'm in the USA in New Jersey, can you pick me up? Your boys are going to be so happy traveling again. They want a beach to play at. So you next week. Hugs
Haha, love this.. That list is getting burnt and away we go 😂😂😂
I am not sure - if you guys are my favourites after following you for nearly a year or if the prize goes to your😂 18:15 charming doggies that always make me smile in most episodes. They are happy and you give them love, fun & and an adventurous life! ❤😊😅
THANK YOU,,..NO ... NOT so, Sarah.... (at nearly the end... ) IT HAS definitely been VERY VERY riveting!!!! I AM IN AWE...and it has been absolutely fantastic to watch your various journeys since I found you guys, favoured you and others as my to to TH-camRS people to follow... Please do not underselll yourself. I would love to employ you, if a reasonable cost, to advise me on how to upgrade my kind of "Pam the van" holiday travel life into something for the winter coldand summer heat .,.. am in france but will consider a UK vehicle! getting it done also... YOu guys are such a BRILLIANT TEAM! and your little dog dudes so sweet when I am anti dogs because of my childhood. .... Without what I just said YOU ARE ALWAYS welcome in my village!
I am waiting with bated breath and hope the van passes the Spanish demands!
awwwww, Thankyou so much for the kind words, we are really grateful for our followers who have continued to watch the videos through this van build as it’s been hard to try and make entertaining videos for sure.. Sending love and hope you have a lovely weekend ☺️xx
Congrats!!! You 4 are the highlight of my week. Not even sure how long I've been watching (pre-Covid) and can't wait to see what adventures you have in store. Cheers!!!! 🥰
You will have years of fun in this van so the 4 months building it will be so worth it. It’s been quite a journey what with the Vinney mechanical issues before the build. I am excited for you to resume adventures in your fab van. Frankly best build I have seen as it’s done by you for your needs. Love that little step seat brilliant!!
awwwww, Thankyou so much Paul, we’re looking forward to showing it in proper action ☺️xx
Congratulations to you both on finishing the van build, I have enjoyed it from start to finish 🎉🎉🎉.
Really looking forward to seeing you guys travelling around together, being back to normal, but it has been brilliant to watch.
Thanks for taking us all with you, see you all next time😊😊
You did a great job filming the build. I love it. Looks perfect. Can't wait to see the next chapter and how the boys enjoy it.
Wow, the time has flown! Well it feels like it to us but maybe not you. So pleased for you and look forward to your travels. By the way, I have loved these build vlogs as you just kept it real. Now is the time to enjoy the fruits of your labour😊
Congratulations Nick and Sarah and furr babies on a fantastic van build.👍👋👋👋👋its been great watching you and sharing your ups and downs and hopefully the spanish Vanbuilding regulators will be happy. (They better be!!) Cant wait to go along with you on your adventures.
The boys look pretty dam pleased too. Well done💕💕👋👋
Yes they better be 😓😳.. Thanks so much for watching..😁
Wasn't to sure when first started the build!! However it now looks AMAZING and very much you, well done both.
The van looks amazing, I particularly like the holy doors 😂 & that magic carpet is brilliant stuff.
Haha, yeah the doors are fab and full of holes😂.. Thanks so much for watching..😁
So exciting!
😊😊
I’m going to miss the build videos but….you did an amazing job and it all looks so nice. Onward to the travels.
Love the new intro. The van is looking great!
Aw… Thanks so much for watching..😁
💗Love you guys! On the contrary, the last four months have been QUITE riveting,,, and sawing and hammering and measuring and cutting and screwing....ooops! We loved every one of the videos but now on to adventures! Go safely, we'll be watching!💗
Great news that the finishing line is in sight and travels are starting soon.I hope your hand and fingers make a speedy recovery Sarah.See you and the pups on the next.
Just the paperwork to go now❤😊
Congratulations on finishing the van guys …lovely,lovely,lovely ❤
…Blue mesh behind the cupboard holes would add a finishing touch too . Happy Travels xx
Right, I await my reward... As a retired engineer and dedicated DIYer I admire your new found skills. You'll be constantly tweaking things now for months, if not years, to come!
Yours is the only van life vlog I follow, the rest are cr*p by comparison.
Thanks so much and you're right we will be making changes always 😂
You two certainly make and earn your own luck with hard work, wish you super happy travels, though with your positive attitudes I’m sure you would find the best in just about anything!
Whoop whoop!!
Well done guys and the boys for testing out the bed and step, fingers crossed for the next stage, the dreaded Spanish paperwork. A part that we nearly gave up on but it will all be worth it in the end even though extra grey hairs will appear 😂
Look forward to your travel days, you are amazing ❤
Thank goodness it's done!!.....sooo boring being one of your followers...Ha no no, it has been such a fun journey, not boring at all, I have loved watching this bit as much as the travel, your friends that I meet up with every week..it's a strange concept, but that's how this works...
Thanks for sticking with us. 😉
🎉Congratulations 🎉 on finishing ❣️ I've totally enjoyed the van build, still can't understand why they made you tear it up and out, but then I'm from the USA ❣️
Hey Sarah, I've done my own van build also, I highly recommend, as a female, wearing gloves for everything, they're amazing hand savers...lol...the only thing I had to contend with then was the pain at the end of the day from holding power tools. You've both done an amazing job, I have a new van on order, which will be my second van build, can't wait, but also looking forward to it being finished even though I haven't even started...if you know what I mean.
Van looks awesome. I like the blue/beige splashes of color. ❤. You will have loads of fun traveling around the world in your new home. ❤k
The holes in the cubers remind me of 101 Dalmatians ❤❤❤❤❤
If they don’t change your awning name and shame the company and I’m sure they will suffer in the long run, customer care is paramount especially when you folks can certainly make their name mud, keep up the good work nick n sarah 🎉
Looks AMAZING you have worked so hard and done a great job enjoy xxfor the BOYS
❤❤ Thankyou so much ❤️ x
You have done a brilliant job, I have enjoyed watching every minute. Looking forward now to following your travels. Hope you have many years of fun with your new van. Love to all four of you xxx
That is a fantastic job! Well done you two! I love the colour scheme and here’s to many more, many years of happy travels for you and your doggies! 🎉❤
There're so many great ideas in your van so it's been interesting to see what you come up with next and the layout with the bed where it is really challenges the 'bed at the back / garage' tradition.
Love your colors! Congrats on finishing up!
awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx
Love the magic carpet! Hope it will fly you to many adventures! 😍🥰😍
The videos have defo been a good watch. Thumbs up to you both. Xx
awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx
