Hey Guys, no video tonight I’m afraid. We’re all good ❤️. We’ve just had a lot to do this past week and that’s meant the vlogs will pick back up next week. Got some very exciting news to share in the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled. Thanks as always for being so awesome 🤗✌️

A storm stopped us in our tracks, plans fell apart, and for a moment… we didn’t know what to do next.

This vlog isn’t about perfect vanlife — it’s about the reality of being forced to slow down, make hard calls, and trust the process when everything feels uncertain.

If you’ve ever had plans ripped away from you, this one’s for you.
We really hope you’ll watch it ❤️

🚐 NEW VLOG IS LIVE 🌧️➡️🌤️

We set off for Cornwall… then a storm shut the whole trip down.
So we waited it out, changed our plans — and honestly, it turned into something really special.

This one’s about slowing down, adapting on the road, and trusting that sometimes the best moments come when things don’t go to plan.

Quick question for you 👇
Would you have waited out the storm… or pushed on anyway?

Thanks for being here as always 💛

🚐❄️ WE DIDN’T EXPECT THIS IN THE HIGHLANDS… ❄️🚐

Tonight’s vlog is live — and it turned into one of those days that reminds us why van life in Scotland never goes to plan (in the best way).


We drive deeper into the Highlands, find a brilliant community aire, take on a short but epic walk to a hidden waterfall… and end the day with a takeaway for two that somehow feeds six 😂


Then things take a turn.
-A quiet overnight park-up.
-A late-night dog walk.
-And something we absolutely didn’t expect.
-By morning, the Highlands had completely changed.

5,000 subscribers… honestly, wow.

We started this channel just to record our road trips in our old VW — something for us to look back on one day. Then people started subscribing… so we shared more of our journey.

When we hit the road in Old Gertie, we had around 600 subscribers. Hitting 5,000 now feels absolutely unreal.

Thank you to each and every one of you for watching, commenting, supporting, and being part of this journey with us. It truly means more than you know.

Let’s smash 2026 🚐✨

We didn’t plan this night.
We didn’t book tickets.
We didn’t even know it was happening.

We parked up the van in Scotland expecting a quiet evening…
and the sky exploded 🎆

Fireworks over Old Gertie.
Frank asleep.
Us standing there like, “how did this just happen?” 😅

That unplanned moment is exactly what this week’s newsletter is about.

Not just where we went…
but why moments like this are the reason we choose vanlife.

Inside this week’s email:
🚐 A hidden overnight park-up that felt like a secret
🍽️ Comfort food cooked in the van
🏞️ Loch Lomond, waterfalls, and Highlands magic
😂 A few very on-brand Trist & Kez moments

Happy Sunday ❤️, if you’re stuck for something to watch this evening. Why not check out this weeks vlog where we head to the beautiful Scottish town of Kirkcudbright and explore for a couple days. Before we head on to Loch Doon for an incredible experience and some not so incredible Scottish weather 🤣
