Join us, Carol & Ken, on our first trip in our new Consort Nova Motorhome as we finally get to grips with some wild camping.
In this video, we have a battery problem, enjoy some delicious kippers and survive a walk in the dark and 45mph winds.

🔶 About us 🔶

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.
