Our next video will be a Q&A, so if you have any questions then stick them in the comments and we will pick them up there. Also, we now have our website up and running, why not check it out, it's early stages but we will be adding to it regularly. www.2goroam.com
"Cats: have been an important thread that has linked so many of your messages. For me, genuine caring for animals is an important marker of one's humanity. You have the blessings of time, resource and each other to sort our your future roadmap. Like all of your dedicated viewers, I look forward to reconnecting with you in the future! Take care, Gordon
You are dealing with classic stressors: moving and the death of a parent, plus jet lag. We started a journey similar but not the same 15y ago: retiring at 55 or so, moving from the US and becoming expats...using that base for extensive travel. We went through the deaths of 2 parents...and the accusation that we had abandoned them, which we hadn't. But we had stressors you seem to be blissfully free from, emotionally, financially, and time wise: children. I think many of your followers are in our camp of dealing with long distance child issues: weddings, illness, financial disaster, emotional requirements, distance from grandchildren, inheritance concerns, among others. What you have discussed about flexibility and looking forward are so useful. But with children, all adult children, mind you, there are mindboggling issues that crop up....for example, a suddenly apartmentless child in the US without experience resources calling you in China to fix the problem...where the Chinese block the internet resources one needs. Has anyone else asked you about whether you understood in the planning stages that being childfree made it an easier game?
Another beautiful video! What you speak of is everything that I have experienced in my 8 years of travel. It was 5 years in the planning but, once I made that leap, everything else fell by the wayside. In 8 years, I have not had a nano second of doubting the decision I made to quit my job, sell my condo (furnished), get rid of my "stuff" and set sail. "Travel is the only thing we spend money on that makes us richer." I'm very sorry for your loss & wish you much patience while digging through 80 years worth of "stuff". If nothing else, it will be an act of love & an affirmation that the changes you've both made in your lives will ensure you don't leave 80 years worth of stuff for others to sift through. Namaste & best wishes for a speedy turnaround on the tasks at hand.
OMG the outtakes cracked me up 🤣🤣🤣 Love it! Now all I can say is this: do what you have to do, focus on yourselves and your family. It is a lot to sort through when wrapping up someone's estate, on top of grieving. As for cats, I have 6! Started w 2 feral sisters, then yr and a bit later rescued a 4 wk old abandoned in neighbour's yard. Then I rescued the 4th, then the 5th, and lastly nursed 3 10 day old kittens and kept one. Voila! I have 6 dependents! I have loved cats all my life (and dogs and really, any animal). So I totally get why it was emotional to contemplate Tanzi's future. I'm happy you are both doing ok and seem healthy. That is what matters most!
Oh..you 2. My eyes were little moist hearing about your dad, then again with Tanzy. I almost wet my pants from laughing at the outtakes. Hysterical. Thank you, and look forward to seeing you both very soon.
Love your philosophy of looking forward, not backward. I know things will become clear as to how to deal with things, and where and when to go next. Much adventure still lies ahead for you both. God bless you as you grieve and move through this hard time. Love and hugs from Texas. 🌺💐🌸
The blooper reel was hilarous 😂. Take this time to reboot and refresh for your next adventure. We’ll be here when you return to TH-cam. All the best in the meantime.
My condolences on the passing of your Dad. Glad you’re both taking time to grieve and reconnect with family. Suggestion: assuming you have the time while you’re home in the UK, you could have a few videos for those of us interested in the UK as a long stay destination. I’ve seen YT videos on the visa process, but not much on where to consider staying, locations that are friendlier to long stay travelers, less expensive areas to consider, etc, etc. Most of what I’ve seen for England is “places to see in London” and typical tourist stuff.
It wii be just as fun learning about life in the UK as I imagine a lot of your viewers will find UK just as interesting as Thailand because your viewers like your perspective as much as peeks into life wherever you are.
Sorry to see your wonderful plans so massively messed up. I really enjoy watching your videos and look forward to whatever updates you put out. Good luck with finding the perfect find for your meow.
Wow! You're dealing with a lot. You have a great attitude. I thought you might say you're taking Tansy. She's a beautiful cat. I've always loved animals but never had a cat until I started fostering Joy in 2020. Her first owner died, her second owner dumped her, and I'm staying stateside as long as she's living. She's a geriatric cat who has chronic health issues, but she is thriving with LOVE and good vet care. I'm trusting the process that I'm exactly where I need to be and she's traveling all over the US. Sending you both positive vibes as you navigate this next chapter. I'll be sure to tune in to see what happens next.
Cat lovers will be queuing hopefully. And what a beauty. Your Dad was a very kind man. We are truly concerned looking at our investment pots this week and what this reckless Government has managed to inflict on the Nation. Never thought we could be run by such utter shambolic incompetence. You both must be thinking seriously about how bad this could get? You are both resilient and financially astute but lets face it this could get far worse. Perhaps your views on this in your next update may be appreciated by some viewers trying to plan ahead. Good luck with everything.
You two are amazing. Kudos to you both and wishing you all the best while you take care of family and business. I know you will find Tanzy a good home. I adopted a senior cat (he was 12) and loved every minute of the 3 years we had together. Franklin was a sweetheart. 💕
Thank you for this video. You are about 6 or 7 years ahead of my husband and my plans to do the same and travel the world. I have elderly parents and may find myself in the same situation. There are so many details that need to be considered, but it is impossible to plan for everything. I have enjoyed your channel and gotten some great tips from you. I have even started a Padlet of likeminded friends where we share videos like yours, websites and apps that will be helpful. Please continue to keep us in the loop of your adventures and discoveries.
Oh my god, I just LOVE you guys! TAKE a break! Take ALL the time you need. You could ring me up a year from now and I'd still jump onboard the Neil and Sarah Adventure! Maybe if you felt like it, you could just post on your private FB page. Let us know how you're doing.... because we wanna know. And mostly because we care! But only if you can do so without it being a total drain while you're in the middle of all these jobs. Neil, if you can get that house sorted out in a month or two, it would be a miracle! Sarah, have a BEAUTIFUL visit with your mum. One final thing (for now) - the bloobers at the end.... I couldn't stop laughing!!! xo xo
Such a wonderful channel! Sorry for loss. Your words are very inspiring and always spoken so well. ...The Outakes at the end had me laughing harder than I had in years. Hilarious!!!!! Looking forward to your new adventures in the future.
Sarah - just relax and enjoy all the time with your mum doing lovely stuff. Don't you think that time apart can give you space to realise what's most important. You might need to lead the way in the future year ahead which I'm sure you'll relish. x
Wow… I hear you guys. I know what you mean by what’s next. I have my cat of 15 years … can’t do full Geoarbitrage so like you said over and over “all this world of possibilities..😝”. I don’t see you guys as rudderless. To the contrary! You are doing fabulous!!!!
Thank you for sharing and posting during this difficult time. That sweet Tanzie is a lucky cat and I bet you will have tons of offers after everyone sees this video. We are inspired by your calm outlook and philosophy. Your fans will be here whenever you post wishing you the best.
I like the outakes :) Glad you chose to continue the channel despite this massive change to your plans. I'm sorry for your loss but appreciate you carrying on so we can see the rest of your journey together.. all the very best
Great attitude! Nice job on the beginnings of your website! Don't pick on Sara...it's hard work getting all those words out! Godspeed til we see you again!
Another great video guys! So sorry you are going through this tough time. Sadly I’ve been through it too with losing both my parents….it’s one of the most difficult times one can face in life. My love and thoughts go out to you both. Look after yourselves and each other, take care x
You guys are awesome! We follow you every week and you've turned us on to slow travel and we can't wait to see what's instore for you! Hope everything goes well for you as you both work everything you've got going on.♥️
You mentioned that you had planned the next few Thailand videos. How about doing a UK version of the subjects? May not be possible but could be very amusing x
Great video and good to see you made it back to the UK. Take a break and dea with the necessary tasks at hand. This will pass and another world of possibilities will open up. Take care 😊
Oh dear! Lots of changes coming up! I am extremely grateful for you guys looking after Tanzy’s future ensuring she’ll have a great quality of life in her last years. And I hope you will not be separated for too long. Please continue to do TH-cam videos to see how you guys are doing and what the future plans you have. I’m looking forward to the next one. Stay well you two.
I hope you have a lovely time with your mother, Sarah. I hope you have plenty of support as you tackle your father’s house and possessions, Neil. Thank goodness you’ve both honed your PMA these last few years. You’re braver than a lot of us would be when confronting change, you have a lot to work through. As I write this, one of my cats is sat on my lap. I bought mine with me from the UK to Canada 13 years ago, so I can well imagine the hard path of rehoming Tansy. I considered that with mine years ago, but the idea was too difficult, so I brought them. Sadly, you can’t take her with you or stay behind to look after her, so get in all the cuddles while you can. Take all the time you need away from TH-cam, I’m sure we’ll all be here when you get back!
Poor Sarah needs a break after all that struggle at the end of the video! 😂🤣 We will miss you while you take a break, but we will be right here for you when you come back. You’re priorities now are to take care of yourselves and dealing with all the tasks that need to be done. My suggestion would be for y’all to wait until after the holidays to start traveling again. Enjoy the holidays with your family and friends, then begin a fresh, new start on your travel adventures. So glad you made it back to the UK safely. My question for the next video is: what country is still on the top of your bucket list to visit?
I can relate to the cat situation. We lost our cat, thought they were gone forever. Weeks later found her under neighbors deck. Was one of happiest days of my life !! And I am not really a cat person...Glad you both will recharge the batteries, get your lives organized and do what needs to be done. REALLY looking forward to seeing your next chapter in life. You are an inspiration !!!! Sorry again for your families loss. Hope other family members can help with the property situation.
Hi guys, another great video! You are both doing fantastically well with all this change happening around you, and major life upsets. Can I send you our best wishes to you and your families. We are also happy you are making sure that Tanzy will be cared for :). A few questions for next week's Q&A. 1) what are you currently thinking for your next stage of travel, ie back to Chiang Mai for the martial arts or a totally new adventure? 2) some feedback on how you’re managing in a world of high inflation, the fall in index funds, stock prices and market volatility, and how this affects your budgeting? 3) would you ever consider going back to work if needed, ie because of everything in 2. above? Thank you for your brilliant videos, our favorite of the week, which we always look forward to watching 😀
Oh my, I’m so sorry about the loss of you dad. And changes to yours plans. What are your plans now or maybe you don’t know yet. My husband and I are in our early 60s and in the process of getting rid of everything we own. We can’t afford to retire in the US so we are planning on moving to Chiang Mai (our daughter lives there). Not sure what we’d do if we had to move back. We look forward to seeing where this change leads you.
Hello Sarah and Neil, I’m one of your followers and I feel like you two are part of my family. You inspire me because you’re “one of us,” and I’m very happy for your good times and saddened by your “complications” as Neil says😊 The situation with Tensey is really sad and my heart goes out to you and to her, I’m sure God has a plan for her too, He has brought her this far. My deepest condolences about your loss, btw, the passing of our parents is one of the hardest things we have to endure, many things are just different after that. I admire your welcoming and curiosity regarding change, and the way you all share your difficult times with poise and dignity, I’m definitely cheering you on, and my suggestion for future shows is just doing what you have been, sharing what’s happening with you all, I think the curiosity of others to hear you is to compare ourselves with you and relate to you at one level or another, it’s what “socializing” is all about. Laughing, loving and caring together with you has been a good thing! It’s just life, but it gives us hope and perspective about what’s possible and doable! I look forward to your future videos when you’re ready.♥️
Sorry for your loss. Good luck with everything on your plate. You’re going through what a lot of us will be facing at some point. Take care of yourselves. I’m looking forward to seeing you guys return soon. 🙏 for what you do !
You two are the cutest funniest I've seen on TH-cam! God bless you both and your siblings during this time of change. Hoping for bright and exciting adventures soon!
Another great video guys. 2 things soldiers don’t like: Change and the way things are. 😂 Jokes aside some great analogies and a great outlook on life. I love your outlook about how you address problems/issues/concerns. I think your experiences so far in your journey have allowed you to develop that outlook. Systematically dealing with complication is the best way. A little analogy of my own is when I had to address my MSc dissertation. I procrastinated for over a year and it was too overwhelming until I realised I could break it down into chunks/chapters. Since then I just address things ‘bit-by-bit’. Honestly, I was pi*sing myself at the outtakes at the end. How Neil was getting so stressed and how Sarah just couldn’t grasp it. Minor update of my own, I’ve been in Thailand for 1 month now and my costs were £800. No alcohol. Edit: recalculated - £873. However, I have been everywhere in Thailand during that time: Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Pai, Mae Hong Son loop, Tak, Kanchanaburi, Hua Hin, Chumphon, Koh Tao, Surat Thani, Phuket, back to Bangkok, Pattaya and now in Koh Chang. All on the little 125 cc Honda Click. 😂
@@billybob7522 I’m retired now so I’ve decided to travel the world. I have a passive income that gets me by. But I’m still working on increasing that passive income so at the moment I’m spending time in places that are super cheap. Im here for 2 months then I’ll probably head to Malaysia because I think it’s fantastic. Beyond that, I’m heading to Nepal to do some trekking while I’m still young. I want to be on Everest Base Camp on my 40th birthday. After that, I might spend a year in Central America learning Spanish then once I’ve picked up the language, take a road trip down South America. Nothing is set in stone though. Apart from base camp. Everything else is really loose.
@@ryanbooth8421 that's excellent Ryan. I wish you all the best in the world in your travels and life in retirement. I'm looking at doing something similar but maybe not so energetic as I've got 20 years on you! I must research Malaysia if you rate it so highly. South America is also on my bucket list. Hopefully the passive income is not too bruised after all the crap that's going on in the UK. Happy travels mate and the best of luck.
@@ryanbooth8421 That sounds great Ryan. Well done. Do you feel that returning home for bereavement(s) is necessary? I'm not asking for a friend and the event will happen someday 🤔. +1
That is BRILLIANT Ryan, not sure what we are more impressed about... the spending of £873 in a month or the fact that you did all that on a Click 125!!!! That is fantastic!!! You should have videoed that! We would be gripped by that kind of adventure! Best regards, Neil & Sarah
We are thinking of you two. Happy to see you are taking your recent challenges in stride and keeping a positive attitude. Do keep us updated. Missing you in Chiang Mai.
So grateful you are sharing your journey. It’s a reality life tosses you lots of curves and how you deal with it step by step. It’s a tough time want working thru bits is tough. Enjoy hearing your approach. Hope this next while is not to bad dealing with endless piles of stuff and legal hoops. It’s a lot
Great video! I laughed out loud at the outtakes. Your videos are an adventure for all of us who follow your journeys. All the best to both of you while you work through the challenges you’re facing. Tansy is such a sweet ball of fluff ❤️ We’ll be here when you get back. Good luck with everything!
We will certainly miss you guys while you get this sorted but totally understand! Good luck finding Tansy an excellent home! My brother took our moms dog when she passed and it’s really adapted so well!
Well done both , keep doing what your doing your viewers and friends will be waiting for you xx especially well done to Sarah for her efforts to get it right in the end 👍
Sounds like you have a good attitude towards all of your challenges. One day at a time. As a recovering over planner I’ve learned that peace of mind now comes from living life on life’s terms and being flexible. I don’t plan much anymore. We are selling our house in Mexico and possibly moving to Colombia but one thing at a time. Downsizing once again. We’re becoming experts. 😏 Wish you the best and we enjoy your TH-cam content whatever it may be.
You both are so calm. I am very impressed with your patience. It will all work out My father passed not long ago, he always would say better days are coming. When something goes not as planned, I think about that saying. PS. Do those little wireless mics you use connect to a go pro.
Thank you Angel. They do connect to a GoPro (that is what we have been using. However it needs to be a Hero 9, 10 or 11 with the addon called the "Media Mod". Hope that helps. Best regards, Neil & Sarah
Great video! So glad Tanzy will be looked after and settled into a new home. Too many people are willing to drop a family member's beloved pet at the shelter (best case scenario) or just dump it on the street. 😢 We've often debated about our own two cats and little dog when the time comes for us to begin our travels. They are family and will be looked after in only the best possible way, you can be sure of that! Tanzy is a beauty and I'm sure you will find her a wonderful home. Take all the time you need. We'll be here when you get back. 🙂
Enjoyed that video, I also have cat issues, I’ve been left with the family moggy so long term travel raises the issue of what to do with her? Regarding your next move travel-wise , I think the most obvious option is to go back to Chiangmai… you seemed settled there. BTW if you need a Uk address for post etc. you guys are more than welcome to use mine.
I'm from a town similar to Stoke. I left the country aged 25. Post-industrial England is no place for working class folk. Just my opinion. 😀 (Good luck needless to say 🤪👍.)
Um... so how short is this short break? Desperate travellers want to know ;) - Nosey Nelly PS just kidding, do what needs doing and we'll see you soon enough.
Bobby and I love pets too and are also traveling the world with two small dogs. You can get a pet passport for that kitty and take her with you guys. It would be great for your fans to see you travel the world with a mascot so they would know it is possible to do it too. Dee
I’m getting very mixed feelings from what you are saying. I’m sure you’re devastated but it feels like got a little fed up with travel. Just be honest, you gave it a good shot. It wasn’t for you, there’s no shame in that. I’m sure you’ll settle back into UK living. All the best with that, just remember we’re only here once.
Our next video will be a Q&A, so if you have any questions then stick them in the comments and we will pick them up there. Also, we now have our website up and running, why not check it out, it's early stages but we will be adding to it regularly. www.2goroam.com

Tanzy is the most beautiful cat. I have always loved long haired, and ginger/tawny cats. All the best finding a new home for her.

Omg I love the story of your dads beautiful cat. Hope you got a wonderful new home for her 🙏❤️
We did Gilly, thank you x
As has been said before, take the time for you first, your TH-cam followers will be here for you when you return. Mike & Louise
Sorry for your loss, I hope you will continue making the video. You are great.
LMAO. That blooper reel was hilarious! You know what though...she's a tencious woman!! Best wishes guys, I'll be looking forward to the future plans.
Wow! You're dealing with a lot. You have a great attitude. I thought you might say you're taking Tansy. She's a beautiful cat.

Pivoting. Agile. Need to adjust. WELL DONE. ***AMAZING ATTITUDES****

Arohamai, you both have gone thru a lot, giving up Chang Mai, the passing of your Dad and Queen soon to be a home with treasures and Tansy. Go well 🎀
Thank you for this video. You are about 6 or 7 years ahead of my husband and my plans to do the same and travel the world. I have elderly parents and may find myself in the same situation.

Oh my god, I just LOVE you guys! TAKE a break! Take ALL the time you need. You could ring me up a year from now and I'd still jump onboard the Neil and Sarah Adventure! Maybe if you felt like it, you could just post on your private FB page. Let us know how you're doing.... because we wanna know. And mostly because we care! But only if you can do so without it being a total drain while you're in the middle of all these jobs. Neil, if you can get that house sorted out in a month or two, it would be a miracle! Sarah, have a BEAUTIFUL visit with your mum. One final thing (for now) - the bloobers at the end.... I couldn't stop laughing!!! xo xo
Haha Sue and Buddy! You two are very cool. We LOVE having you here, such positive people. 🙂
Best regards,
Neil & Sarah
Attitude is everything. You know that and so does Tanzy.
Such a wonderful channel! Sorry for loss. Your words are very inspiring and always spoken so well.
...The Outakes at the end had me laughing harder than I had in years.
Hilarious!!!!!
Looking forward to your new adventures in the future.
Sarah - just relax and enjoy all the time with your mum doing lovely stuff. Don't you think that time apart can give you space to realise what's most important. You might need to lead the way in the future year ahead which I'm sure you'll relish. x
The bloopers had Holly and me crying.
another 'use' for the rear view mirror is to see what from your past is trying to overtake your future. anxiety, bad money choices, poor relationships
Wow… I hear you guys. I know what you mean by what’s next. I have my cat of 15 years … can’t do full Geoarbitrage so like you said over and over “all this world of possibilities..😝”. I don’t see you guys as rudderless. To the contrary! You are doing fabulous!!!!
Great analogy and great advice for life. Wishing you all the best during this time of great change.
Love you guys ….. I’m currently in Bangkok watching your videos. Sorry to hear of your loss, sending my condolences 💐
Thank you for sharing and posting during this difficult time. That sweet Tanzie is a lucky cat and I bet you will have tons of offers after everyone sees this video. We are inspired by your calm outlook and philosophy. Your fans will be here whenever you post wishing you the best.
I like the outakes :) Glad you chose to continue the channel despite this massive change to your plans. I'm sorry for your loss but appreciate you carrying on so we can see the rest of your journey together.. all the very best
Great attitude! Nice job on the beginnings of your website! Don't pick on Sara...it's hard work getting all those words out! Godspeed til we see you again!
Thank you for posting this interesting and informative video. Best wishes to you both.
You two are amazing! Loved the bloopers! ❤
Another great video guys! So sorry you are going through this tough time. Sadly I’ve been through it too with losing both my parents….it’s one of the most difficult times one can face in life. My love and thoughts go out to you both. Look after yourselves and each other, take care x
Hands down your best video to date- seriously you two - sending you both lots and lots of love! 💕
Hope all is going well you two, keep doing what you have to do at the moment. Love from NewZealand ❤❤
You guys are awesome! We follow you every week and you've turned us on to slow travel and we can't wait to see what's instore for you! Hope everything goes well for you as you both work everything you've got going on.♥️
Great episode guys! Loved the blooper reel at the end.
You mentioned that you had planned the next few Thailand videos. How about doing a UK version of the subjects? May not be possible but could be very amusing x
Great video and good to see you made it back to the UK. Take a break and dea with the necessary tasks at hand. This will pass and another world of possibilities will open up. Take care 😊
You are both handling things very well. All the best to both of you.
Have loved all your videos and will miss your TH-cam break. Take care both of you ❤
Its just Nice following you Two lovely people. I Will still look forward to see the next one. Good luck with everything
I hadn't seen anything from you recently. I hope all is well with both of you. I know these are crazy times. Bless You Both.
We took a short break but our latest video is coming out Saturday.
@@2GoRoam Good News. I hope that you guys are doing well.
Great video ❤, thanks for the bloopers 😂
Oh dear! Lots of changes coming up! I am extremely grateful for you guys looking after Tanzy’s future ensuring she’ll have a great quality of life in her last years. And I hope you will not be separated for too long. Please continue to do TH-cam videos to see how you guys are doing and what the future plans you have. I’m looking forward to the next one. Stay well you two.
Looking forward to your return!
Condolences on your loss.
I hope you have a lovely time with your mother, Sarah. I hope you have plenty of support as you tackle your father’s house and possessions, Neil. Thank goodness you’ve both honed your PMA these last few years. You’re braver than a lot of us would be when confronting change, you have a lot to work through. As I write this, one of my cats is sat on my lap. I bought mine with me from the UK to Canada 13 years ago, so I can well imagine the hard path of rehoming Tansy. I considered that with mine years ago, but the idea was too difficult, so I brought them. Sadly, you can’t take her with you or stay behind to look after her, so get in all the cuddles while you can. Take all the time you need away from TH-cam, I’m sure we’ll all be here when you get back!
glad you reminded me to keep looking forward! best wishes!!!
Poor Sarah needs a break after all that struggle at the end of the video! 😂🤣
We will miss you while you take a break, but we will be right here for you when you come back. You’re priorities now are to take care of yourselves and dealing with all the tasks that need to be done.
My suggestion would be for y’all to wait until after the holidays to start traveling again. Enjoy the holidays with your family and friends, then begin a fresh, new start on your travel adventures.
So glad you made it back to the UK safely.
My question for the next video is: what country is still on the top of your bucket list to visit?
Glad to see you both, thats life make us change suddenly, one day at a time, cheers
I can relate to the cat situation. We lost our cat, thought they were gone forever. Weeks later found her under neighbors deck. Was one of happiest days of my life !! And I am not really a cat person...Glad you both will recharge the batteries, get your lives organized and do what needs to be done. REALLY looking forward to seeing your next chapter in life. You are an inspiration !!!! Sorry again for your families loss. Hope other family members can help with the property situation.
Hi guys, another great video! You are both doing fantastically well with all this change happening around you, and major life upsets. Can I send you our best wishes to you and your families. We are also happy you are making sure that Tanzy will be cared for :). A few questions for next week's Q&A.
1) what are you currently thinking for your next stage of travel, ie back to Chiang Mai for the martial arts or a totally new adventure? 2) some feedback on how you’re managing in a world of high inflation, the fall in index funds, stock prices and market volatility, and how this affects your budgeting? 3) would you ever consider going back to work if needed, ie because of everything in 2. above?
Thank you for your brilliant videos, our favorite of the week, which we always look forward to watching 😀
Oh my, I’m so sorry about the loss of you dad. And changes to yours plans. What are your plans now or maybe you don’t know yet. My husband and I are in our early 60s and in the process of getting rid of everything we own. We can’t afford to retire in the US so we are planning on moving to Chiang Mai (our daughter lives there). Not sure what we’d do if we had to move back. We look forward to seeing where this change leads you.
Hello Sarah and Neil, I’m one of your followers and I feel like you two are part of my family. You inspire me because you’re “one of us,” and I’m very happy for your good times and saddened by your “complications” as Neil says😊
The situation with Tensey is really sad and my heart goes out to you and to her, I’m sure God has a plan for her too, He has brought her this far.
My deepest condolences about your loss, btw, the passing of our parents is one of the hardest things we have to endure, many things are just different after that.
I admire your welcoming and curiosity regarding change, and the way you all share your difficult times with poise and dignity, I’m definitely cheering you on, and my suggestion for future shows is just doing what you have been, sharing what’s happening with you all, I think the curiosity of others to hear you is to compare ourselves with you and relate to you at one level or another, it’s what “socializing” is all about.
Laughing, loving and caring together with you has been a good thing! It’s just life, but it gives us hope and perspective about what’s possible and doable!
I look forward to your future videos when you’re ready.♥️
Sorry for your loss. Good luck with everything on your plate. You’re going through what a lot of us will be facing at some point. Take care of yourselves. I’m looking forward to seeing you guys return soon. 🙏 for what you do !
You two are the cutest funniest I've seen on TH-cam! God bless you both and your siblings during this time of change. Hoping for bright and exciting adventures soon!
Bless you for both for caring so deeply about Tansey’s welfare ❤
Another great video guys.
2 things soldiers don’t like: Change and the way things are. 😂
Jokes aside some great analogies and a great outlook on life.
I love your outlook about how you address problems/issues/concerns. I think your experiences so far in your journey have allowed you to develop that outlook.
Systematically dealing with complication is the best way. A little analogy of my own is when I had to address my MSc dissertation. I procrastinated for over a year and it was too overwhelming until I realised I could break it down into chunks/chapters. Since then I just address things ‘bit-by-bit’.
Honestly, I was pi*sing myself at the outtakes at the end. How Neil was getting so stressed and how Sarah just couldn’t grasp it.
Minor update of my own, I’ve been in Thailand for 1 month now and my costs were £800. No alcohol.
Edit: recalculated - £873. However, I have been everywhere in Thailand during that time: Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Pai, Mae Hong Son loop, Tak, Kanchanaburi, Hua Hin, Chumphon, Koh Tao, Surat Thani, Phuket, back to Bangkok, Pattaya and now in Koh Chang. All on the little 125 cc Honda Click. 😂
Sounds like a great adventure. Are you there for the long term or a holiday?
@@billybob7522 I’m retired now so I’ve decided to travel the world. I have a passive income that gets me by. But I’m still working on increasing that passive income so at the moment I’m spending time in places that are super cheap. Im here for 2 months then I’ll probably head to Malaysia because I think it’s fantastic. Beyond that, I’m heading to Nepal to do some trekking while I’m still young. I want to be on Everest Base Camp on my 40th birthday. After that, I might spend a year in Central America learning Spanish then once I’ve picked up the language, take a road trip down South America. Nothing is set in stone though. Apart from base camp. Everything else is really loose.
@@ryanbooth8421 that's excellent Ryan. I wish you all the best in the world in your travels and life in retirement. I'm looking at doing something similar but maybe not so energetic as I've got 20 years on you! I must research Malaysia if you rate it so highly. South America is also on my bucket list. Hopefully the passive income is not too bruised after all the crap that's going on in the UK. Happy travels mate and the best of luck.
@@ryanbooth8421 That sounds great Ryan. Well done. Do you feel that returning home for bereavement(s) is necessary? I'm not asking for a friend and the event will happen someday 🤔. +1
That is BRILLIANT Ryan, not sure what we are more impressed about... the spending of £873 in a month or the fact that you did all that on a Click 125!!!! That is fantastic!!! You should have videoed that! We would be gripped by that kind of adventure!
Best regards,
Neil & Sarah
We are thinking of you two. Happy to see you are taking your recent challenges in stride and keeping a positive attitude. Do keep us updated. Missing you in Chiang Mai.
Best wishes to you and your families. I'm so happy you are making sure that Tanzy will be cared for
You have so much on your plate I’m confident you both will come out of it all much better. Good luck!
Great video! Even with all of the trials and tribulations of getting it done… extra points for Sarah for hanging in there!
I'm sure this has been covered in other videos that I haven't seen but what health care plan do you use as youre traveling?
Way to persevere!! Love the bloopers! Sending love & prayers!
just wanted to wish you both all the best and look forward to your next video... good luck
So grateful you are sharing your journey. It’s a reality life tosses you lots of curves and how you deal with it step by step. It’s a tough time want working thru bits is tough. Enjoy hearing your approach. Hope this next while is not to bad dealing with endless piles of stuff and legal hoops. It’s a lot
Good luck guys
Great video! I laughed out loud at the outtakes. Your videos are an adventure for all of us who follow your journeys. All the best to both of you while you work through the challenges you’re facing. Tansy is such a sweet ball of fluff ❤️ We’ll be here when you get back. Good luck with everything!
Yous 2 make me laugh ) love the cat.
We will certainly miss you guys while you get this sorted but totally understand! Good luck finding Tansy an excellent home! My brother took our moms dog when she passed and it’s really adapted so well!
Well done both , keep doing what your doing your viewers and friends will be waiting for you xx especially well done to Sarah for her efforts to get it right in the end 👍
Sounds like you have a good attitude towards all of your challenges. One day at a time. As a recovering over planner I’ve learned that peace of mind now comes from living life on life’s terms and being flexible. I don’t plan much anymore. We are selling our house in Mexico and possibly moving to Colombia but one thing at a time. Downsizing once again. We’re becoming experts. 😏 Wish you the best and we enjoy your TH-cam content whatever it may be.
You both are so calm. I am very impressed with your patience.
It will all work out
My father passed not long ago, he always would say better days are coming. When something goes not as planned, I think about that saying.
PS. Do those little wireless mics you use connect to a go pro.
Thank you Angel. They do connect to a GoPro (that is what we have been using. However it needs to be a Hero 9, 10 or 11 with the addon called the "Media Mod". Hope that helps.
Best regards,
Neil & Sarah
@@2GoRoam thx. We have the GoPro 8 so that's good to know. Thinking of getting a newer one like 10 or 11. Thanka
Great video! So glad Tanzy will be looked after and settled into a new home. Too many people are willing to drop a family member's beloved pet at the shelter (best case scenario) or just dump it on the street. 😢 We've often debated about our own two cats and little dog when the time comes for us to begin our travels. They are family and will be looked after in only the best possible way, you can be sure of that! Tanzy is a beauty and I'm sure you will find her a wonderful home. Take all the time you need. We'll be here when you get back. 🙂
Enjoyed that video, I also have cat issues, I’ve been left with the family moggy so long term travel raises the issue of what to do with her?
Regarding your next move travel-wise , I think the most obvious option is to go back to Chiangmai… you seemed settled there.
BTW if you need a Uk address for post etc. you guys are more than welcome to use mine.
Hey Dave, thanks for the offer! We have got the address sorted now, a great friend of ours up north came to the rescue!
Interestingly, I have always told our daughters “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time!”
Hi both. From your Corporate jobs, do you have large gold plated pensions that will amass you a lot of money in the background? Thanks
I'm from a town similar to Stoke. I left the country aged 25. Post-industrial England is no place for working class folk. Just my opinion. 😀 (Good luck needless to say 🤪👍.)
Um... so how short is this short break? Desperate travellers want to know ;)
- Nosey Nelly
PS just kidding, do what needs doing and we'll see you soon enough.
Bobby and I love pets too and are also traveling the world with two small dogs. You can get a pet passport for that kitty and take her with you guys. It would be great for your fans to see you travel the world with a mascot so they would know it is possible to do it too. Dee
Have you got a home for the cat yet? If not please send me a message
Thank you. We think we might just have the right home for her now 🙂
Very funny
What’s so funny?
@@evadeanu1 guess you didn’t watch the end ! 😂
@@nickfifield1 oh, I see now the funny part
I’m getting very mixed feelings from what you are saying. I’m sure you’re devastated but it feels like got a little fed up with travel. Just be honest, you gave it a good shot. It wasn’t for you, there’s no shame in that. I’m sure you’ll settle back into UK living. All the best with that, just remember we’re only here once.
