Vanlife adventures with a LOT of mistakes.. 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🚐

A free spirited couple from Scotland with hearts full of adventure, and a passion for what is yet to be discovered. The best things in life really are free and you do not have to be rich to travel; Our goal is to show the world that anyone can and should make the most of this beautiful planet.

Since our first trip together to the golden sands of Fiji, we have spent every day working on our journey back to paradise. This is our story of how we get from the highlands of Scotland to the hammocks of Fiji.

The raw side of travel.
Uncut.
Unclean.
Imperfect.
Epic.

Join us and realise that anyone can travel, you just have to take that first step.

Hey everyone 😁 quick update from us!

We are both happy and well and have been very busy the last couple of weeks, hence the silence on YouTube 😊

We wanted to bug I’ve you all an update on Campbell’s well-being after last weeks video as I know some of you have been worried about us ❀️

Campbell is absolutely fine. Pretty much straight after we left the highlands on this trip his symptoms stopped and the migraine went away. We then went for a follow up MRI in Glasgow and it was confirmed that it was a Sensory Aura caused by a migraine. We believe this migraine was brought in by extreme hay fever, which Campbell has never experienced before.

We will be back this Sunday for the second part of our NC500 trip and an exciting announcement for you all 😁

See you this weekend!
Love G&C x

Happy Sunday gang! 😊 we are back to posting YouTube videos and we have a few that we filmed in November going out over the next few weeks 😁

As we move back into our home on wheels Ellie, we set off for a destination that we have never road tripped before.. Where will it be? Will we make it there in one piece? Will Ellie break down along the way? Most likely..

Hello everyone ❀️

Thank you all so much for the outpouring kindness and love that you have shared with us over the last couple of weeks, we appreciate it more than you know ❀️

We had hoped to be able to share happier news with you all but sadly it hasn’t turned out that way this time. Sadly we lost our beautiful baby at 13 weeks pregnant πŸ’”

Honestly, we are devastated. I had the privilege of growing and carrying our beautiful baby for 13 wonderful weeks πŸ’• we called my wee bump baby Halloumi and this was our own little secret for the majority of the time. I don’t say it lightly when I say how much our tiny little one has taught us in only 13 weeks πŸ₯°

The pain, heartache and grief we have felt over the past couple of weeks is nothing that we could ever have been prepared for and our hearts will never be the same.

I read a beautiful quote on the in remembrance website that says: Did you know that even if you lose a baby, their cells stay with you forever, just like your love for them. This has really helped to bring me comfort πŸ’•

Despite this being the toughest thing that we have ever had to face, we have also never felt as loved and supported as we have this last week πŸ₯°

Thank you so much again for all of our kind messages and thank you our baby Halloumi for the most loving 13 weeks. You will live in our hearts forever ❀️
