Last days of Van Life before moving into a HOUSE!

[@kingingit]

What's everyone watching these days? Either on Netflix or KZbin or anything?!

[@BryaYoga]

This lol, i kept refreshing until your video popped up

[@unitedfantv635]

You guys, Bald and Bankrupt also on youtube

[@kevinfriend6521]

Great KZbin channel @kingingit nothing else worth watching!

[@carrieapparcel6956]

Essential Ellington 2023: Roosevelt High School. My cousin's daughter plays the saxophone. (KZbin)

[@BobTheBlue]

Not Netflix… too expensive

[@Ofnoplaceinparticular]

Kara and Nate were my gateway drug into channels like yours and you guys have rapidly become my favorites. I look forward to your videos every week. Thanks for all the laughs, feels, and adventures.

[@helenvander-heyden2383]

Agreed

[@mylittlesuperhero581]

Agree 💯.

[@Joedisney]

Not me I'm so tired of watching DIY projects. I watched these channels to escape from the mundane part of life. Watching another channel work around the house I could do that myself

[@delilah8476]

Same. Started watching Kara and Nate on the train to school to escape. Then Eamon and Bec and Kinging It. Hoping it all lasts for years to come.

[@samonewashington]

Same here💜🍾👏🏾

[@TheWalnut47]

Thanks both. Wonderful video, and funny too. PS: Just to let the advertisers know that Craig and Aimee's homemade adverts are the only ones on KZbin that I don't skip over - they're always worth watching for their originality!

[@bernedicte5860]

Me, too!! I love their commercials! Only ones I watch

[@readycool9600]

Absolutely! Theirs are the best ever!

Craig you brought tears to my eyes instantly while you smiled, in the truck stop, mentioning all your gratitude and that you came off your meds!!! That's fantastic! And reading that beautiful book before bed. You go Craig!! Really incredible. Thanks for sharing you xx

[@Kimberly-cw4rj]

Your commercials are top notch. I love watching your videos and the sponsor breaks just make it fun rather than wanting to skip, you could sell me anything.😂

[@NanaLou_xx]

Ohh Craig, huge congratulations on coming off your tablets , we know you have struggled and to see you turn a corner is amazing. Love watching you both and can’t wait to see your new house adventures!!! Xx

[@carolinebussellwalking]

Thats such good news. Go Craig all those icy Loch swims and ocean surfs will keep the good vibes.

[@MaryBrewster-o6s]

But also remember that being on antidepressants is not a bad thing ❤

[@carenclemmons5002]

⁠@@MaryBrewster-o6s unless they’re not working. If your need for toning with antidepressants is only occasional then that’s fine too.

[@welshhobbit4092]

My advice is buy a mini digger. The amount of different things you can use a mini digger for will save you thousands in the long run, plus you don't run your own body into the ground. The amount of money we've spent on hiring diggers over the 20 years!!! of renovating, we could have bought a mini digger 5 times over. Good luck, and I look forward to watching your progress.

[@lostlangley]

My dad did the exact same, bought a digger for renovations then sold it for £3k more than he bought it for. It's so expensive to hire 😬

[@70foolio]

Ok I don’t know why I am crying but I am so happy for you guys and I love watching your commercials too. 😂

[@TheRashidies]

2 things: 1) Where did you get the Christmas projector? It made my heart happy to see it but I can’t find one? 2) Spork - it’s a spoon and fork combined = LIFE CHANGING!

So glad to hear the shoutout to Gaz! Love his channel!! And obvs love you guys too! Happy for this next chapter!

Here's a tip: for fake Christmas trees that "shed snow" just spray with a extreme hold hairspray or spray or non flammable glue. Works for ours.

[@kathrynsargent5769]

Amy, I just finished reading Abroad in Japan, and I was so sad when it ended! I love his KZbin channel, and it was great reading the backstories. Now, it’s your turn to write a book, huh?

I can't wait to see how you furnish your house after the remodel is done. It's bound to be epic with Trev's fashion sense!!!

So happy for you guys, you are truly blessed. You are one of my favs on KZbin along with Max & Occy, Eamon & Bec, Van Wives, Kara & Nate & Sailing Nandji. You’re all good people on this earth and restore my faith in human kindness.

[@dianegenx]

Happy for you, Craig! Do remember though, that there is no shame in needing anti-depressants, if you were ever to need them again. 💛

[@lisaguthridge4640]

Massive congratulations for the entrance into homeownership!! I heard a fellow traveler describe coming home after a trip as a “destination spot”. Meaning she’d fixed her home up so cozy that it excited her to come home. I wish that for you both.

[@RuthAnnnMorris]

I finally subscribed to your KZbin channel. I love y’all! Aimee, you’re a beautiful woman! I’m a 70 year old grandma and I want you to know I love your wigs!!! You have beautiful long hair and don’t really need to wear one but just for the record, I enjoy watching you with different styles and colors and lengths!! I’ve wanted a wig for awhile and I think I’m going to get one. My hair is thin on top so thank you!! Craig, you’re awesome and I love your accent.. so glad y’all are settling down now! Looking forward to the new adventures 😘🎄👵❄️💨❄️💕💕💕Blessings

[@kirlynz2554]

I always love how unique and funny your sponsor promos are. Today's ad extra tickled me 😂. Happy Holidays, love you two!

[@stefcha6158]

The way you do your ads is the best! You are amazing guys!

[@laurenm8561]

Netflix is great... but there’s a great couple who are slightly crazy driving around in a green bus taking us to places that always leave us laughing and questioning our sanity or their sanity lol. Lions and tigers and bears oh my! I’m so excited for you two, can’t wait to get started on your Reno! Updated: Proud of you for talking about mental health, congratulations on the meds. No shame in needing them and giving them up when the time is right. Amy you look beautiful in that long wig. 💞

[@DaveBrandt96]

I was so envious when you were in Edinburgh, it's one of my favorite cities; every time we have been in the UK, we have always spent several days there. My traveling days are over, so I will have to be satisfied looking at someone else's pictures and the Tattoo every year on KZbin. Enjoy your cottage.

[@msjossi1035]

So happy to hear you're feeling better Craig! Remember that if you need to go back on them that is okay too and it is not a step back it is just part of the progress. I was on anti-anxiety meds for 7 years on and off until about 2 years ago when I also moved to a new place. Wishing you guys all the best

[@marieneu264]

I could seriously watch you two on a daily basis. You all are so entertaining and so full of life and adventure. Can’t wait to see the house journey!

[@doctorplanet6864]

22:25 stellar advice Amy -- prolly good turning that into a plaque and hanging it over the mantel :))) And hey - good on ya both for making your dreams come true!! As for the giant reno bit - lol - don't be afraid to have more than a few projects going at once -- measure in weeks and months, NOT hours/days -- never feel guilty or afraid to take a break -- be kind to yourselves so it doesn't all start to feel like a burden -- be realistic and know that everything will take time - years even, but you're doing it and we love watching and supporting your journey :)))

[@shampoovta]

I always advise watching Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House to people wanting to renovate. It’s just a good laugh.

[@lacroixal]

So excited for your house adventures to come. My husband and I bought a house in the wilds of Quebec almost four years ago and it was hands down the best decision we’ve made. Being in the middle of no where in woods together is a paradise like no other. 🌲🌲🌲🏡

[@vickicorkett9779]

Loving your channel…we are newcomers to your story so have a lot to catch up on. We are living in BC Canada but planning to return to the UK to live after 17 years in Canada. Ironically your beautiful new home was on our shortlist of properties on Rightmove. We are only window shopping right now but so happy to see the home go to a couple that will love it 😊

[@qanadin]

My wife and I had so much fun at the Christmas Market in Edinburgh when we went in 2021. We didn't even know it was a thing and we just happened to stumble upon it. Such a magical thing to do in that city. And The Scotch Whisky Experience was an amazing thing to do as well!! I have fallen in love with Edinburgh and need to go back soon.

[@marksauma]

Congrats on leaving antidepressants. As a husband of a depression patient I hope the best for you. Keep monitoring your wellbeing and dont fear if you ever (hopefully not) have to start again. Keep on fighting!

[@issieanderson2083]

Welcome to Scotland. So good that you have found a home and that you are willing to put the work into renovating your purchase. Having seen your last episode, I would recommend that you take Scottish winter weather seriously. It is no joke. Always prepare for the worst and don’t become a statistic.

[@nicoeeek.7181]

The only channel that I actually want to watch the ads on!! I usually skip through ads but I LOVE yours!!! Absolutely gold, you two are so creative and hilarious!!

So fun to listen to you two chatting about what you will do as you settle into your home. I can tell how excited you are for this next chapter.

[@Graygramma]

You two are better than Netflix. I grab a Bowl of popcorn and settle in to watch your adventures. A huge hug to Craig for sharing his mental health update. Not only are you Ruling Your Own World, but you are doing it with kindness. Which is my recommendation as you move into your new home…be kind to one another, and each other’s ideas. Each should make a list of must haves and maybes…and then share. No judgment. It then becomes a conversation starter to help prioritize activities. Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year🎉

[@CarinaPiersay]

What a great idea!

[@carenclemmons5002]

As you two make the spots/spaces for your love, rest and thrill satisfying nooks, be sure to link them logically for the ways you two flow through life. Make it fun to clean, build and encourage butterfly’s mating. Chances are you will probably make the homestead somewhere you dislike being away from. Remember that You Tube has a plethora of topics to help you tackle every task/project you encounter. Every. And it’s so fun to do the research. Love you guys because you rule your own world.

[@ellac89]

you mentioned being patient and kind to each other during this project. But, I think it's important to also be patient and kind to the house. So often when I do big projects I just get lost what what needs to get done, deadlines, setbacks, etc that I can grow to resent the project. A full house renovation and restoration is going to take a toll and I recommend trying to take a step back everyonce in a while to remember the whole picture and why your doing this project in the first place, as well as why you love it. All coming from almost 15 years as a DIYer, maker, assistant house renovatior to my dad, and artist.

[@stephanieepp1886]

yes! I loved your comment about how there's no need to rush it. We recently renovated our kitchen and our mantra was: Blood, Sweat but No Tears. When we got overly frustrated by something we stopped and took a break for as long is it took to come back to that task with a fresh attitude. If we were tempted to argue, we new it was time to stop and take a break. It made the process so nice! All our friends were complaining about how stressful their renovations were and we just had fun! We learned new skills that we're both so proud of annnnd the whole thing just feels fused with a lovely intentionally joyful essence. I highly recommend it as a mantra!

[@ImagesbyGretchen]

If I can offer one piece of advice for your future homeownership... when starting a project, decide which one of you will be 'the boss' or 'in charge' on that task...One boss the other is the worker bee or apprentice. Do this for every major project and sometimes the minor ones. My husband and I learned to do this (the hard way) when we started working on our first 'home improvement' project over 45 years ago. Yes next week we celebrate 46 yers of marriage and 49 years together... .so I think this advice works 😉. Best to you both. I just started watching you a few months ago and really enjoy your channel

You could always put an old camper or something on the property and let people stay there for a vacation in bonny Scotland for help with the renovation in return. There is a bunch of people doing stuff like that in Germany and it gives people that don't have great finances the chance to get out and see somewhere new and you get a few more hands to help you out :)

I took such joy in knocking walls out of my friends HOUSE and watch it grow into a HOME that's filled with Love and Memories from us all in our 20's camping in walls taken back to bare Granite, to having Children and now into our 50's and Children all grown up. My soul sister no longer with us she died so suddenly but the Home we helped create is there strong and constant and a anchor for her husband and children and me. The hardest thing sometimes is to stop and think is what you about to do... what you are doing is it that you really want it like that or is it more just to get a job done... Stopping maybe hard while you save or firm up your idea but well worth it both in time and money you will save in the long term. You have all time in the world so embrace and enjoy creating your Home 💜🥰💜

I remember when we bought our first home. And then when we sold it because of property values etc and bought our second home....the high that comes with it. The excitement. The realization of a dream you barely knew you had. I am so very happy for you both. That you have found your contentment and peace. Just promise each other....that should it ever become a nightmare more than a dream you get out before your mental and physical health take a beating. A new home is a lot of work even when it is move in ready. You still need to make it yours afterall. But our first home was a fixer upper. It is more work than you can imagine and the stress will get to a point where it is overwhelming at times. Just remember that this too shall pass and stay focused on each other and what is important. I love you guys. Wishing you an absolutely fabulous Christmas!

So happy for this next stage in your lives unfortunately Iam on the downsizing time at 69 luckily my home is small we bought it as would be able to manage on my own when my husband passed love it small lot 50 by 100 gives lawn and gardens to play in a nice size garage we built to keep our big old custom hot rod pick up which does not go to garden centres !It's a show vehicle ! Tom boy at heart that's why Joe and I hit it off both love old cars and trucks when we met he was just looking at build our 49 studebaker pickup ! And built so we both could drive it so much fun !

As an aside, I'm an asbestos consultant, and I just wanted to point out its worth being aware of the stuff before you start tearing out bits of the new house! I'm happy to chat to you guys about it to give you some honest and practical advice - you'll get very different opinions from people, from those who couldn't care less about the stuff, to those that are terrified of it.
