Join us, Carol & Ken, on our first ever trip in our new campervan called Snoopy, as we continue to get used to driving and living in a larger van.
In this video, we search out a suitable park up to sleep in before heading, the next day, to the National Coal Mining Museum. We take a tour down into the mine and get to meet some pit ponies. Ken cooks a warming lamb stew but can we eat it and get it cleared away before they lock us in the car park!
While Snoopy is being checked out by Consort, we take a walk into Leeds City Centre and are amazed by some of the architecture.

๐Ÿ”ถ About us ๐Ÿ”ถ

Welcome to our channel! We're Carol and Ken, retired professionals turned van life enthusiasts. We share our adventures across the UK and Europe in our camper van, which we have just upgraded to a slightly larger model.

Our goal is to provide a relaxing, honest account of van life, with no scripted drama - just the real, day-to-day experiences of our travels. Many of our viewers find our content calming, and we hope you will too.

We're passionate about wild camping and love to share our knowledge and tips, from staying cool in the van to choosing the right toilet. We're always learning and look forward to sharing our campervanning experiences with you.

While we love the freedom of wild camping, we also enjoy supporting local businesses by indulging in delicious local food. Expect to see plenty of one-pan meals and restaurant visits in our videos.

We like historical sites, country homes, towns, villages, and the occasional city. We aim to share interesting facts and stories about the places we visit.

We post new videos every Friday at 6pm UK time, sometimes more often.

Our channel is perfect for armchair travellers, those considering a caravan or motorhome, or anyone looking to unwind after a stressful day. If this sounds like you, hit that subscribe button and join us on our journey. Your support, whether through watching our videos, subscribing, or contributing to our 'Buy Me a Coffee' fund, helps to keep our adventures going. We appreciate every bit of it. โค๏ธ
