It really was lush (are you possibly welsh?), and as novice wild swimmers we loved it, but it was soooooo cold! We couldn't last very long!!!! Thanks for the comment. 👍

Thank you - it was a fab place to explore 🏔️🥾🚐

It was an amazing area to explore 🚐🏔️🥾

It was pretty busy when we were there but it didn’t spoil anything 🚐🥾🤣

Thank you - we have had a fab time 🚐

Have a great trip - I hope the weather holds up for you. We haven’t done any via Ferratas yet but it is something we want to have a go at. I did a lot of indoor climbing at uni and as a teacher on residentials so know I would enjoy it!

Thank you - we are certainly trying to make the most of the time we now have 🚐🏔️🥾

It was pretty fantastic up there and we were lucky with the weather and visibility 🚐

Thank you 😊

Thank you - it is a very beautiful place

BBQ with a view 🚐🏔️

Amazing - I bet you are so excited to get started - good luck with everything 🚐😊

It was absolutely beautiful - whichever way you looked 🥾🏔️🚐

It certainly was another great place to base ourselves for a few days - the hikes were phenomenal and being able to sleep at 2300m right under the peak was epic! 🥾🤣🚐

@@earlyretirementwanderlust 2300 meters! I was out of breath just watching you! 😂

I am sure you will get to some of these places one day - lots of little mountain B and B’s in the area for hikers and refuge huts. Richard fancies a multi day hike from hut to hut in the Dolomites 🥾🏔️ our to do list just gets longer because we only really scratch the surface in each place!

Definitely one if you like high mountains, mountain passes and hiking 🥾 it is very pretty 🏔️

They were real google specials that took us over the Slovenian mountain passes but so pretty. The Italian border that was the middle of a river! We really enjoyed the night up at Tre Cime - a definite experience we would have regretted not doing 🚐🥾🏔️

Thank you - it was definitely a bucket list experience and the Dolomites in general were fantastic 🚐🥾🏔️

It was amazing 🚐

Hi - yes we did a video in November to show how we had renovated the cottage and what it was like a year on from getting the keys 🏡 thanks for watching 😊

@@earlyretirementwanderlust Great! I’ll look forward to watching 🏡

We have absolutely loved it in Slovenia and we had a week in the Dolomites aswell which was fantastic getting out hiking 🥾 just starting to think about next years ski trip too 🚠 hope you are enjoying getting out and about and retirement is treating you well 😊

Thank you ☺️

Thank you 😊

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

It really was quite other worldly at some points!

Not on this trip but we have swam there a couple of times - my toes curled when I dipped them in this time 🤣🤣

As I said on the video I really think it is the most beautiful river in the world - those colours of the water that change depending on the depth and width ♥️ we spent 10 days in Slovenia in the end 🚐

Hi it was the San Giuliano aire that is on P4N app and also on google maps I think across the bridge from Venice

Hope the weather improves for you! We are in Austria now - it has forecast rain for the last 3 days but we have actually had blue skies and hot weather! We quite like the odd wet day as it gives us time to do admin type stuff and clothes washing 🤣

Yes it is amazing how much the diesel costs add up travelling from Yorkshire - we had not really been to Dorset apart from to catch a ferry - it was lovely. We just keep thinking - the more we can do things on a budget the longer we can stay out travelling but we have noticed campsite fees have gone up considerably since we started out with the van 7 summers ago. Cornwall Is beautiful 🚐

Thank you 😊

Glad you enjoyed it - Slovenia is definitely one of our favourite countries 🚐

Wow - the Dolomites were spectacular! We loved it around the Tre Cime area, we stayed for a couple of nights by Lake Misurina and a night up at the parking lot by The Cime. There are some great hiking trails. We also had a lovely stormy night by Lago di Braies 🚐

It really is! Slovenia is a very special place - the lakes and rivers are unreal ❤️

It was our first time ever to Venice and we loved it. It felt so easy to get around (I did let Richard do the navigating of all the alleyways) They are Helinox chairs which we treated ourselves to in Lockdown 😬 They were expensive but they are actually still like new and we went through so many sets of the fold up chairs before that - so we have probably broken even!!

Cheers, thank you, we bought our Nowhere Bound blanket thanks to you letting me know where you had it from sometimes nice to treat yourselves for some comforts 😊
