Schengen visa, Pets, Insurances and border paperwork. How we’ve planned our 9 month adventure

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- This is a longer than normal video, but the info within it took us a long time to get, so we think it's best explained fully and clearly. We hope you appreciate the effort that goes into planning a trip like this.
Please feel free to comment down below with your own experiences or ask questions if you need further guidance.
Part 3 will be out next week and covers all the tech and hardware we are taking on this trip.
Insurance companies we have used:
RAC Arrival European Breakdown - www.rac.co.uk/...
RAC 90 Day Travel Insurance - www.rac.co.uk/...
Insurance for short-term trips to less safe countries - hotspotcover.com/
Mid Trip Travel Insurance - www.bigcattrav...
Great Facebook group for European Pet Passports -
www.facebook.c...
What are we doing and why have we called this trip an EXPEDITION? The word Expedition is used in all our video titles as this word means "promptness or speed in doing something, with a particular purpose, especially that of exploration" and this fits in perfectly with our plan to not only stay out of the UK for as long as possible, but to sample each country we visit to see if we want to come back for longer in our future travels.

Have you tried Advance insurance brokers ?
Getting out of Turkey with Cooper could be a bit "long winded", we have just adopted a rescue dog from Turkey a week ago, the Turkish Authorities are making life really difficult to rescue dogs these days, our rescue took 8 hours to get through the red tape at the border and that was with all the correct paperwork in place. My guess would be that border control would view anybody with a dog on board as being potentially smuggling it out. I could well be wrong but I guess be warned!
hi john & mandy, 3 months ago just before you travelled to Canterbury you met with Lou & Emily at a roadside beach location on the Kent coast you gave the three word location as Can`t.reviel.this. i have tried it numerous times to locate the place and again we will be in Canterbury this weekend and fancied a beacch location, was that a spoof? and if possable could you let me have the location, thanks-dragabed.
@@colineames623 Hi Colin, it was a spoof as, as the 3 words say - we can’t reveal that location as it’s used a lot by other people who rely on the parkup. There are lots to choose from if you look at google maps though
Nice to hear about your plans and look forward to seeing you on your travels. Nice to see Cooper in the background.
Thanks Tracey 😁❤️
You have balls of steel doing this adventure,take care and good luck guys
Thanks Steve
A lot of good information guys. A lot of work. All the best. X.
Good planning guys,having travelled most of the countries that your going to in a lorry,I would advise you carry Euros and a few US dollars to smooth your way through most borders in the Balkans,as no matter how much paperwork you carry,a border official will dispute the validity of something,which can usually be solved with a 10/20 euro note slipped into the fold of your paperwork,also although you're non smokers,a pack of Marlboro cigarettes can help.You will find currency booths at most borders,not the best rates but always handy to change small amounts.If you're using motorways many countries have a vignette system for toll charges also buy at border.If want a bit more info on Albania check out Haco video,Harmut Conrad commentary in German but still worth a watch.Most of all go with the flow and have a great trip
Some great tips - thanks Paulo 😁👍🏻
I can understand you being nervous about not being able to get full cover in some countries. It's not just about losing a £60,000 motor home It's about losing your home! I'm feeling nervous for you and I'm just following this epic adventure. Good luck guys looking forward to the next video about the trip.
That’s it exactly, thanks Den
I am so envious. Great to hear all your plans and the prep you are putting into your trip. Going to be sooo much fun. Take care and stay safe……Chris x
Thanks Chris 😁
Brilliant!! Thank You. We have been inspired to follow your journey a year from now. Thanks for all of this information it's fantastic !!
Thanks Guys, it’ll be epic!
Understand your concerns over the insurance, me and the boss would be the same......and a 'poop for coop' deck on the ferry amazing!!🤣🤣😂😂
It’s very important 😂
Good luck guys, looking forward to following your travels.
Hi guys, hope you are well, great video, just a heads up if you don’t know,
Around Europe (in regards to coopie) there is a parasite called leishmaniasis,
Spread by sandflies, (not necessarily around the beach) ,
I would advise getting him a serresto collar, from pets at home, they do different ones for different size dogs,
It needs to be put on a week before travel to be able to be ready, to work, if he has this on you don’t need to administer the monthly free treatment, as if you do it will be to much, so just the collar,
The collar lasts for up to 8 months at a time so maybe I would purchase two,
Our dog today got a vaccine called Letifend, this is to help just in case she contracted leishmaniasis as the vets in Europe do advise on getting it,
They take a blood test first to see if they have leishmaniasis and thank god she didn’t, then administer the vaccine which lasts for a year and then go back and get another,
Sorry just want to advise you guys and give you the heads up, as there are people that don’t bother with either the collar or vaccine, meaning the dog doesn’t have any protection at all from leishmaniasis,
Hope you don’t mind me writing this on here, at least then other people will be able to read, if you need any more info, please let me know on here,
Safe travels xx
Also if you do decide to purchase the serresto collar, stretch it out a little before you put it on and I always leave it out of the bag for a day or two xx
Thanks for sharing all that. Going to be very useful for a lot of people!
Thanks Bob 😁
Just back from Turkey and the insurance at the border is paid in euros (110) Also no need to worry about Rabies jab or Titre test they never check the pet paperwork anyway. Just finished travelling through 10 countries and not one border asked for Pet paperwork!!
Planning is great fun! and can make our break your journey 🤠
It most certainly can 😂 it’s the 6 P’s
For Albania and montenegro Daneger and staceys 7 video series is pretty good, looks very safe to me!
Good to know, thank you
You guys are so on it… thanks very much for all this great info 🙂 will say hi if your at the Campervan show next week !
We think you are very brave and courageous and we are looking forward to watching your travels 🚐🛳🐕
Thanks Anne
Thank you so much for so much info. Really valuable stuff. Been watching Mariane and Chris. I have friends in Bulgaria which seems to be a really good country.
Hello to you both and Cooper hope your all well wow a lot of planning you have done and not long now and your on your way I bet you can't wait and hope you enjoy every min of it you all take care all the best
Thanks Jamie, we really can’t wait!
Coops it not on the ball he didn't have a drink! looking forward to the journey although it seems sooo complicated. enjoy xxx
I worked for a short time in Albania in 1998 and it was a bit Wild West at that time. Durres is an ancient Greek colony and sea port with some interesting ruins that would be worth visiting but it seems to have been hit by an earthquake in November 2019. I also worked in Serbia for a short time in 2002 and that is a very attractive country to visit. It seems to me that if the vehicle insurance can be sorted satisfactorily that Turkey might offer a more relaxed stay for much of your time outside of the EU. A friend of mine is planning a 6 month trip to Europe quite soon and so your video(s) are very helpful indeed.
Thank you 😁
Another very interesting and informative video guys. Thank you for sharing all your research with us. The route you are taking across Europe sounds amazing, I can’t wait to follow your journey. Bon Voyage.
We are so excited 😁🥳
Great video guys! We are now full time in our motorhome, currently in France, just a couple of things I woud like to highlight, we got a Covid certificate letter before we left the uk that does not expire by visiting the gov.uk website and applying there, they send you the letter with the barcode on, ours took about 5 working day. SAGA has covered our van insurance for the year and this includes Turkey etc. Fully comp.
We are heading to Turkey for the winter also! Stay safe and enjoy xxx
Saga doesn’t cover us due to our age 🤦🏼♂️😁 we have covid paperwork sorted too 👍🏻
Yes realize Saga wouldn't cover you youngsters just thought it might help other oldies that watched the video and maybe put off by the insurance, Saga cover all the countries you are going to and more and fully comp!
What a great video full of really good info you have done a lot of research so thank you very much and do take care all of you.
Thank you
Sounds a wonderful trip. Have a great and safe time.
Thanks Pete 😁
Well done and THANK YOU for all the information! ☺
Thank you for watching 😁
@@johnmandy I want to THANK YOU two for all of your hard work!! I am really looking forward to your epic trip! I'm watching from southwest SAUDI ARABIA and still hoping to leave soon-ish... ! ☺
Thanks very informative 👍
Hi both, just got back from a month in Holland travel was not as bad as we thought , lots of paper work but once done it dose not seem so scary , dog visited vets a lot of paper work but all went smooth, our vet in Holland checked dog for return and only a small fee which was a nice surprise , really glad u r explaining all the planning as lots of people will be put off travelling in Europe , we r hoping to get to Sweden next may can’t wait, cheers guys keep up the good work ,
Ah glad it was smooth sailing after the faff though - could you travel in Holland ok once you were there?
@@johnmandy yes we had to isolate for five days then a COVID test which was free then ok to travel, no isolation when back, hardly anyone in Holland wears masks , we did in the shops to some strange looks , u need to keep safe I wear my mask in the shops here can’t be to careful
@@paulwatton2415 Ah, did you travel straight to Holland from the UK?
Yes john straight to Holland no stop
Fantastic, you've obviously been busy. I'm planning to go to France and Spain for my 90 days in winter, so a bit easier to plan. Can't wait for the videos of your trip though really great.
You’ll have a brilliant time, we love it there 😁❤️
Hi John and Mandy - we visited a lot of similar countries to your planned trip in 2019 - went as far as the Black Sea and turned round - when I find the stops I will add here - one really helpful stop was Camperstop Ljubljana Pri Kovacu - behind the pub/restaurant, with a mini farmyard.Eat in the pub and overnight is free, great owner supplies bus tickets into town if required and flyers with offers for things like river trips. The riverside is fab with loads of eateries and bars, had wonderful Mango Gin and tonic :)
Love Albania; don't be apprehensive the people are wonderful! Great site at Lake Shkoder with on site restaurant. Camping ARBI at Pogradec for Lake Ohrid lovely family run site. On site restaurant cooks amazing brown trout , you choose the fish from the list of weights, the cooked outside on the bbq straight to your table.
Will add more when I trawl through my blog.
Julie
Have a lovely time on your expedition. Looking forward to seeing your travel blogs - thanks for our stickers today at willow fields Jan and Colin 🌍 👩❤️👨
Ah you’re very welcome, thanks for popping over to say hi 😁❤️👋🏻
Good luck to you guys, jings what a load of work, I'm worrying about you already☹. We will be keeping a close eye on your channel ok🥰
Thanks Eddie
My anxious brain is in overdrive! I get scared so easily just travelling around in my own country!! I wish you well though and it sounds like you are preparing very well for all eventualities xx
Thank you ☺️
Wow hope it all goes well for you and you have a lovely time what a trip
Thanks John 😁
Hi guys all your border insurance, Albania etc are payable in euros, not all borders have insurance offices especially the older ones.
It’s not insurance, it provides zero insurance cover. It’s just like the UK road fund licence. So don’t be fooled into thinking you’ve got insurance, this is why we’ve bought fully comp insurance policies to cover our trip.
Great vlog 👍 take a look at ADAC insurance, they do cover Turkey
Sadly they don’t insure English vehicles.
@@johnmandy , you could try them when you are actually in Germany, I used them when stationed there back in the 90s.
Love these videos and all the information you are passing on. Personally it would be a no go for me to go to a country where I had no insurance. It only takes one unfortunate incident to wipe out your home & you’re stuffed! I think there’s a reason you can’t find insurance for these places that’s because the risk is higher! Xx
It is a concern but you can still buy some. It’s a minefield of info 🤯
@@johnmandy I look forward to watching the whole adventure and finding out more :) good luck to you both you deserve your big adventure x
Great clear information thanks for taking the time to share
You’re very welcome 😁 thanks for watching
Hi both, what a lot of research and planing, well done to you both. My head is in a whirl. Such a lot to sort out. I wish you both a fantastic trip and will be following x
Wow , what a lot too organise !! Hell , gave me a headache , with all to organise !!! + the trouble to get insurance !! . But on a positive note , i do wish you well with this trip , and it should be fun to see /watch , how you go about it all , looking forward to seeing this ... 😀
Thanks Lee
Not sure which ferry route from Greece to Italy you will use that takes 32 hours ? Igoumenitsa/Ancona is about 16 . If you want to camp on board , bear in mind its available from April 1st until Oct 31st & vehicle spaces on open deck are limited , So book early , I book at least 3 months ahead & some crossings are already full . The elec hook ups on board may be limited as you're not supposed to generate any heat , ie cook & you need a euro plug . Anek lines do have pet friendly cabins & also kennels on open deck .I think dog has to wear a muzzle if out on deck & not allowed in public areas , like the bar . Worth noting, They won't let you park on open deck & use camping on board if your V5 doesn't state camping car , & they will check !
The best advice is based on experience isn’t it, so on these topics we’ll report back what we find at the time 👍🏻
I wish You a bon voyage. This will be an adventure for all of us, but especially for You of course. Have fun! :)
Thank you 😁
Oh boy. Loads of research and planning! One thing you might re-check is the ferry reservation lead times. At the moment you can get onboard almost the same day with a car but during the summer months the ferries can be sold out for longer periods of time. Especially from Midsummer to the end of July.
That’s fine, we’ve checked for the times we’re travelling and it’s out of season so it’s fine 👍🏻
So excited watching all this planning and giggled at the poop deck :-)
😁 it’s such a funny name for it
Brilliantly thorough, well done both of you. You deserve to have a great journey.
Thanks Peter 😁
Wow….so much to think about. Still it will be one heck of an adventure 🧭.
Thanks Mandy
Thank you, very informative. US dollars can be very handy at border crossing. Accepted pretty much world wide. Have used them myself on several occasions
, always worked. Stay safe. All the very best. Cheers.👍😎
Ah good call, thank you 😁
Really excited for you. If you have any reservations about certain countries then go with your gut feelings and simply don’t go. I am enjoying all the planning and in my opinion you can’t plan enough. Blimy, feeling real anxiety and I’m not even coming with you 🤣😊
Thanks Michelle
I can’t help visualizing the Schengen explanation being done by the Two Ronnies. Lol. Hugs❤️
They probably would make that so much funnier.. 😁😂
HI J & M. Love your videos. only found you about a month ago and have binge watched your Vlogs from about number 40. dont know what il do with myself now ive caught up. My own channel will be up and running shortly, based on gaming with the Nintendo switch.. was that a hurrah from Mandy but a big Sigh from John! lol.
Keep up the brilliant work you 3.
Ah thanks for joining us Jim, so glad you’ve enjoyed the catch up. Ooh switch gaming sounds very cool 😁😂❤️
Love the spreadsheets Mandy 🤗 being from South Africa... Need visas almost everywhere and have to cross check loads... I do love the spreadsheet planning... Visa applications for a family of 4 not so much 🙄😅 but we do it anyway... For the love of travel 🎉🗺️ looking forward to following your EPIC adventure!!! 🌍🚐🛣️⛴️
Ah boooo for the visas everywhere but yay for the travelling. I do love a good spreadsheet 😁❤️
After Watching Danny & Tulu's Green Card issues in their last video I would take a green card just for the Dodgy Border Guards. I fully understand your Insurance worries. Great News on Coopers Pet Passport. We are going to get our pet passport for our Dog done in Portugal since the other half hold's dual nationality. Thanks for the info on Turkey Rabies Boosters and Jabs. Our had his 3 year Jab last Year and a Titre Test so I wonder if the Titre Test is Enough still to get in to Turkey
I’m looking more into access to Turkey to see if there’s anything else out there. We have a printer for if we need them but will be printing some off.
Hi
I have just renewed my Moho insurance with the NFU Newark office .I have comprehensive cover for all European
countries plus all of Turkey . Sorry I can’t help you with Albania .
That’s amazing info, I’ll be visiting the local nfu office tomorrow 🙏🏻👍🏻
Sadly the nfu can’t insure is as they don’t permit long term travel, they say if you’re out of the UK for more than 60 days they consider you a non uk resident and any policies would be void.
Hi, great video, hope you can help, not sure what you mean by 30day qr code ? I have the nhs letter with qr code and thought that was all I needed ? I'm sure they wont send me a new letter every month ? I don't have a smart phone just a lap top. Any help greatly appreciated, happy camping ! Stewart
I don't travel across the EU like you guys, but that app seems like a fabulous idea!
It’s brilliant!
EE roaming fair usage will only allow 25GB per month whilst you are outside the UK. So you might struggle with that limit and need to use local SIMs more than you first thought.
Also, don’t forget their new £2 per day roaming charge from Jan 2022 if you renewed your contract since 7th July 2021 and don’t have a roaming add on.
The MNO’s are having a field day with us leaving the EU!
It might be worth getting say a French SIM that will allow truly unlimited data across the EU with no 25GB cap.
Feel free to read the other comments on this as we’ve already covered this 👍🏻
@@johnmandy yes I see you have dismissed other similar comments on the basis that you’ve got previous experience. Don’t forget your experience is pre-Brexit! As I said, the MNO’s are all changing their policies and not just a little bit to take advantage of the new non-EU status.
EE might have said you’ll be fine, I don’t trust what they tell me on the phone based on my experience! Maybe you’ll be fine, but knowing what I know (what with owning an MVNO specialising in travel), I’d bet that you run into restrictions on your EE SIM.
No point wasting our time on speculation, let’s see what actually happens 👍🏻
Serbia is a great country and the people are lovely….at no point did I feel unsafe at all and I was travelling on buses and trains.
And I thought I was having a nightmare and all I'm trying to do is buy my 1st motorhome. That's the trouble with living here in Northern Ireland not much choice but on the plus side I can have a UK or Irish passport or both if I want so no EU restrictions on my length of stay 😎
Wow, that might be worse - massive decision and lots of thinking 😁😂
Wow, that is complicated!
It’s a lot to cover 🙈
Wow. Very thorough 👍
Thanks lovely 😁❤️
John
Re van security, how about an old fashioned hidden immobiliser switch? Just break a wire somewhere? Would give at least a few minutes more protection.
You guys are the research warriors! Thanks for sharing the Big Cat Travel Insurance link - think we're just gonna get that for the whole trip seeing as it covers Turkey too and max trip length of 24 months :) now just to sort that Turkey motor insurance at the hut over the border, maybe they'll throw in breakdown cover by their mechanic pal for a few Lira ;)
That’s a lot of information!
I wish we needed to know all of this, unfortunately our European trip will only be 2 weeks 😆
Great planning advice. I really hope insurance companies start covering vehicles in more countries than at present. There doesn’t seem good reason in some cases like Turkey for example
Our thoughts exactly! It’s such a shame and for no real reason
@@johnmandy I suspect it has got to do with this 'Lugano' type of thing, as in the difficulty of recuperating costs from insurance companies/persons outside the single market.
Hi John and mandy 👍 just us 2 checking in 👍 thanks again for sharing video update 👍sue and den 👍 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🚌🚌🚌
Thanks Guys 😁👍🏻❤️
You must visit sarande in Albania, absolutely beautiful beech and coastline 😊
Oooh, thank you 😁
OMG that is a lot of paper work 😫
Great vlog 👍
Thanks Stan
I love watching your vlogs great that you pass on all the news and knowledge to everyone but if l ever get a motorhome l will be staying in this country all this schengen, holiday insurance, pet insurance ,motorhome insurance, boy did my head explode 🤣 l wish l could be calm and do it no way will follow with great interest stay safe Kenny
It’s a lot to take in and prepare for but we are belt and braces lovers so have tried to think of all the things. Thanks Kenny 😁❤️
I saw the vlog from Danny & Tulu they are travelling through to Turkey. They were shocked when trying to get into Macedonia......official insisted they have a green card, he wouldn’t let them through until they gave him cash, luckily they only had 10 euros & a £5 note. 😳
Have a wonderful trip & I look forward to watching you on here.
We saw their vlog too - we have green cards for the countries we can’t get insurance on the border for 😁👍🏻
Great video guys, very informative, thanks
Good luck guys
Thank you
Hi, just a question about your vehicle insurance. You say the C&CC insure you for 365 days touring in UK and Europe. But, does that count as you full time in your van? You might have checked, but as far as I am aware The C&CC won't insure you for full time living on the van. It's an anomaly that I've experienced myself, which is why I'm asking. It might be worth you asking, because if you live in your van for more than 6 months, without returning to your home address, not the address your vehicle is registered for and where you have to have yourself on the electoral register at, then as far as the Clubs' insurance company is concerned you are "full timing", not touring. We worked for the C&CC as site staff and they wouldn't cover us for that because we didn't "return home" for any of the time we were contracted for. We had to take out "full timing" insurance with Comfort.
It’s ok, we’re not with c&cc 👍🏻
@@johnmandy Sorry, I mis heard the vlog. It might be worth others thinking of full timing, or long term touring.checking with their own insurance. The 365 days of touring bit can be confusing for anyone not familiar with it.
Another great video and very excited to follow your trip. Did you consider using Revolut travel insurance?
It’s limited to 90 days trip cover.
Interesting video thank for sharing 👍
Thanks Garry
Have a great time
Thanks Don 😁
Great information, thank you for sharing! 👍
If the ferries are asked a lot about pet pooping facilities, why don't they do something about about communicating the necessary info !!!!! Hope all goes well. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work.
I thought that too, thanks Pedro
Where your vans insurance is concerned, never gamble what you cant afford to lose.
Thank you very good
Thanks Graham 😁👍🏻
9 months from September takes you all the way through autumn, winter and spring to June. That's a LONG time for the current situation to change. All it would take is one of the countries you're in to decide that their "cases" have risen too high and do a harsh lockdown like they've done to everyone in Australia and you could easily find yourself stranded inside closed borders. Also, look at Israel moving the goal posts over what is deemed to be "fully vaccinated". Now 2 jabs are not full and you need a 3rd. Also, we're heading into winter time where seasonal viruses are rampant, so I doubt they'd let a crisis go to waste and will use that to justify more lockdowns. Maybe I'll be proven wrong but the utter charade of the past 16 months has left me rather jaded and cynical. I wish you all the best John and Mandy - do it while you can. If it ends up being a rollercoaster ride of highs and lows, at least you'll have plenty of content to share with us here =) .
There might be issues, but then again there might not - this past 18 months or so have taught us you can’t hang around waiting while counting “what ifs” - travelling in Spain last year showed us things are totally different “on the ground” than Facebook and the media would have you think. Hopefully it’ll be a great adventure 😁❤️
Perhaps you should check your statements before you post. There are only certain sections of Australia "locked down", and these are done based on the number of outbreaks in a given area. You are still free to travel from green area to green area without quarantine.
We felt the same as you and the reality is that having come through France and now Italy travel on the road is doable! We too are intending to be in Turkey from Dec So our paths may cross... We travel a little slower though 😉 Enjoy it while you can I say! PS What was the boat from Turkey to Greece called may with to try that route. Ta Karen
Don't forget Ireland is not part of the of that there zone. As we are part of the common travel area with the UK
We did think of Ireland and will get there eventually 😁
Wow sounds fantastic and exciting huge amount of planning though
Hi, what is your route and when are you going ?
Feel free to watch the first video in this series 👍🏻
I think I have mentioned this previously - we used insure and go, they have various bands, band 5 being worldwide. Do you have a GB number plate? Are GB number plate stickers legal?
They will still be able to use their nation's identifier when the rule changes, but the GB sticker will no longer be valid. All Britons will either need to buy the new numberplate featuring the letters UK or make sure they have a sticker displaying the same letters.
We have both uk and gb stickers on the van 😁👍🏻
@@johnmandy Thats playing safe lol
Have you ever done the Route Napoleon? An amazing drive! x
Do you have to take a new covid test everytime you cross a boarder.
Not on the borders we’re crossing 👍🏻😁
Are you watching Tread The Globe on TH-cam? They’ve been to some of the countries you’re going to.
Oh John AND Mandy, you are so valuable. Just need to thank you so much for all we have learnt,and are learning from you catching up on lost time in our first year of owning a motorhome...retiring 12 years too late and covid happening but we avoided so far... Plus other stuff!!.You are our guiding star, and, just seeing how to thank you both..
Hoping to get across to continent ASAP...
Many many thanks and hope to catch up at event before...Take care. Jim'n'Sue
Ah guys, that’s so lovely ❤️❤️❤️ hope your first year has been good and that you get over to the continent soon 🙌🏻☺️🥳
I've been following both of you from the start always informative and a great watch. I fully understand Johns concerns about the insurance. I guess would you travel around the UK with 3rd party insurance, I doubt it and how do you know that the insurance you buy from someone in a hut on the border in Albania is valid or does the money go straight in his pocket. I look forward to seeing your travels but would I risk my home, I guess that's the question but I don't like parking my T6 next to someone in a supermarket car park. All the best both.
So much organising! I LOVE IT 😁. Looks like you are on the ball with everything 👍
Thanks guys.. we hope so 😁😂🙌🏻
When are you planning on going?? I can't wait 👍❤️ ...travelling by proxy lol
Early September - we can’t wait! 😁
Thank you, I really enjoy following your journeys and topics. One question that I am surprised you haven’t covered and that’s “Tyre Sealant” (say oko tyre sealant) which pretty much prevents punctures. I have similar wheels to you (but haven’t added it). It maybe essential for long journeys around Europe. Any plans to do it or reasons why you haven’t? It maybe be a good consideration and give you peace of mind knowing the chances of a puncture are remote.
Check out the video showing all our gear that we're taking 👍🏻
we just come bk from a week in Blackpool £500 and we did nt even get a front seat lol good job u dont charge lol
Hey guy's im looking forward to the video content when you go on your hokey Cokey tour lol 😆 I also follow Danny and tulu I recommend watching there latest video. There on there way to Turkey 🇹🇷 and got a little bother at one of the borders. Enjoy and be safe 🙏 xx
I think they got confused, every uk insurance company giving EU travel automatically comes with a green card. So they just needed to tell the border officials this. 👍🏻
@@johnmandy Just thought it might of been helpful incase you came across anything like that but hopefully not. They will try and get money any way they can from you. So when is the start date or departure date lol
It's a lot of work but I hope everything works out and you'll have a great time
Can you say all that again please.
Wish We were coming with you guys, it’s good to have a plan 👍
thanks for great info, what EE sim plan are you on/recomend
Such useful information, we are so interested in how you get on as we are hoping to start our journey across Europe early next year. Thanks for sharing with us 😊👍 x
I’m sure I saw john the other day at the anderton boat lift.
That’s likely 😁
Shame it was closed. We were chatting to someone or would have said hi
Blooming excellent. Loads of hard work here. Quick question. Coop's dog food, have you an alternative? Henry hound is "allergic" and we know meat based products have caused issues.
When we first started planning the trip we weaned him off his meat and just give him a dry complete food which hopefully he can get in all the countries we visit - if not my fall back plan is making it myself with Turkey mince, veggies, oils, rice, cinnamon and turmeric 😁
@@johnmandy I bet he's hoping for the one pan version. 😂
