Inside the lives of Nomadic Overlanders! | EPIC self-build!

[@martyn5333]

The dude doesn't need to be a mechanic as such. His ideas on camper building and layouts etc is brilliant. That's the services he should be offering. The layout is great and the ideas too

[@liveration]

Thanks for watching 😊🙌🏼

[@neilfoulks5521]

So I'm sitting on my single bed in my self converted builder's van doing vanlife while watching videos of other people doing vanlife! 😂 I love your videos. This lifestyle is something that was on the cards for years as I prefer to work for agencies and I can work when I want, where I want, and just tick on by without a care in the world 😂. Keep making the videos, you're doing a great job. ✌️

[@fernwehneunzehn]

Haha me too. In bed in my Vivaro watching other vanlifers on KZbin :)

[@tokyomb]

Great video (and nice marketing 😊).

[@lilyoreilly3648]

Excellent layout 👍🏾

[@Butchbuchsnan]

I love the Orkney accent. It’s almost Scandinavian.

[@jdawz2816]

❤ Enjoy🤗

[@leannedyson4925]

Great lifestyle, wish I had the guts to do it ( and the ability to fix a camper)

[@hollyvick181]

I like all the wood.

[@paulone-off7286]

Doing this is on my mind daily and has been for years. I love these old military vehicles, but recently enquired about price's on a website which specialises in old military vehicles, way out of my budger. Started looking at 7.5 ton trucks, but massive mileage even for a 2019. Trying to find the time to do it, space to work on it is not easy, especially in west Scotland with the rain. This build is one of my favourites so far, love the fact you fabricated your own box and double glazing. Would like a closer look at this one. It feels like a burning desire to do this.

[@-M0LE]

Minibuses are cheapest

[@chas2can124]

Nice Rig

[@johnthompson9032]

What about doctors, dentist, NHS without an address how does that work for you constantly moving areas, how do you manage

[@-M0LE]

You don’t have ti have addresses for things just a c/o care of address

[@chrisbooth6956]

Kevin can I metal detect on your land lol 😂

[@stevenb007]

Great lifestyle until the government starts with ULEZ, pay per mile and 15 minute cities, with penalties for driving through the wrong "zones". This is why we need to push back against these things.

[@thew4rrior5code]

Nice! Ive seen a couple of these trucks turned into a motorhome. Very cool, u.k isnt really big enough or made for it compared to say a country like Canada, everyone out there does it and they have lots of land for it u.k is way to overcrowded isnt it. Where do you put your addresses for your licenses and dentist, truck etc?

[@-M0LE]

You are either delusional or dont have an iq Luckily unlike Canada we don’t have guns and we don’t lord niizis in our parliament

[@Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

She loves it 😉

[@brendamuirhead483]

Serious question…how can the services you need, road maintenance, places to fill up with water, empty sewage, shop for food etc, be available without council tax. Whilst I understand you not paying that given you don’t live in a council area, maybe some kind of traveller tax could help support and sustain the lifestyle you love. Could also help with provision of places to park up. Don’t mean to cause an argument here but just a thought. Before it’s suggested, road tax just doesn’t cover that kind of stuff.

[@-M0LE]

They pay enough taxes already to cover public services Income tax for instance or vat fuel tax and road tax

[@brendamuirhead483]

@ yes I understand that but none of these fund the more local services I mentioned….they are all provided by individual councils using a combination of national,taxation and local council tax..just to be clear I’m very supportive of the lifestyle, just acknowledging that all these things cost money.

[@snark567]

Too many taxes already, NI, VAT, Capital Gains, Council tax, fuel tax, sugar tax, alcohol tax, inheritance tax, road tax, employers pay tax to employ us - which technically is us paying tax, etc. Do you really want to introduce a traveler tax now? Maybe the government should learn how to spend money in a way that doesn't always leave them broke. If you want people in mobile homes to pay council tax you've got to offer them a service, for instance council parking spots that you can reserve, which can be used as a home address and easy garbage disposal/collection. If you choose to reserve a spot, you have to pay a fee every month to the council. But just being in a vehicle and passing by a random town to buy donuts isn't enough to warrant more taxation. Council tax is based on the value of your property and if you don't own property in that area, you have no stake in that council anyway. How is a travelers tax going to work anyway? You get taxed every council you pass by? Lmao.

[@brendamuirhead483]

@@snark567 you can’t just decide you don’t want to pay taxes…everyone else pays council tax….they can’t just avoid it and expect the services they need to be there…who else needs toilet emptying facilities..or park ups? No one.

[@snark567]

@@brendamuirhead483 ".they can’t just avoid it and expect the services they need to be there" Travelers who have passed by your council without paying council tax have existed for an eternity. So why is it a problem now? There will always be people who rent/own homes in your council so it's not like this is a net negative. Your council isn't losing anything. Seems like you're just upset that they have less bills to pay than you.
