Awww loved this guy. I'm a Scottish gal and I just appreciated everything he was saying about the life we are "expected" to live and then being able to break free from that. And just not give a toss about what others think. 😂 There's a part of me that craves such freedom and I've watched loads of van lifers but I loved relating to a man from my home for a change 😊

Patriotic Scot but their country is poor, overcast 11 months per year, potholes everywhere and everything closes at 5pm. Delusional Scot more like.

Freedom, lol. They take orders from England. They were not allowed the independence results of indyref 2 because it was not sanctioned by Westminster, lol.

Love your van and also that you are from Dundee! I am in Florida but my maternal grandpa was born in Dundee and later grew up in St. Andrews before taking off and seeing the world! My grandpa lived to be 100 so I got to know him well and hear his stories and life. He was a Fyffe (MacDuff clan). Married and came to America in his 30s, had 4 children. I have owned two VW Westfalia camper vans in my life and loved them. Wish they made them again. Traveled most of eastern America in them.

Laughing at the no swearing sign as he lets F bombs go off! 😂😂 guess it's just a suggestion more than a rule. Lol! I have the same van in American version, midsize wheelbase & short roof which I can still stand up in. Love the accent. I miss my grandparents. Mom born in Dumbarton came to the US as a toddler. We both plan on going back to the Motherland for a visit. I have never been. Gotta be the good daughter & take her soon. Lovely build. Love the color!

Love love this. You are a free spirit and loving life. My husband used to live onboard his yacht in Plymouth. He was retired. Then we got together and he moved to N Ireland. I loved the freedom of having no ties and the simplicity. We sailed round Scotland for the past 4 years with our dog. Got married in Plockton with just our kids and the dog. Unfortunately due to Ians health we had to sell up and i now drive our Motorhome! Big changes but just had to adapt. Planning a 3 month trip visiting all the places we love but just by road! Leaving Ireland in June. Stornoway for Heb Celt ( 4th time) then up to Orkneys for 1 month. Considering Shetlands too! We love Scotland so much. We have another dog with us this time. Bit of a tight squeeze but off we go! PS we have a wine and whisky stash too!

[@kendclife7913]

What a charming guy who is mesmerizing as he shares his incredible van life. I bet women and men alike were imagining sharing his van ... I know I was 😊. Glad I could view this inspiring video.

[@scottishmaninavan]

Aww thanks very much, lovely thing to say 😊😊

[@Jeff-hb1qq]

Thank you for the video here in the USA times have changed. I’m 63 disabled and living in a van for nine years in this country they’re making it so difficult to travel and have a good time without police being called for parking . people looking at me like I’m a tramp Lowlife .. have to camp stealth. Don’t talk to nobody because I don’t know if they’re gonna call the police on me. Don’t hurt your back. If you do you’ll lose your family your friends nobody want anything to do with you. I used to be a hard worker 46 years and it’s like the rug being pulled out from under me. Take a day by day. Life goes by so fast enjoy it while you can.😊

I've been living on wheels as a nomad in the US for 19 years now, it's easy over here. I'm toying with the idea of returning to the UK (born in England) and doing it there, but at 62 with a teensy pension, I'm not sure I could afford even that lifestyle. Enjoy the videos, keep them coming, it's helping me to figure things out.

Switched on fella,Yep cost of living has us all thinking alternatives,our van is out the front as we currently staying with Father in law to give him some comfort after his wife passed but as we sold our house we are definitely thinking fulltime in future picking up work as we move around Australia in near future.Looking forward to a more simple life.

[@scottishmaninavan]

I have a lot of family in Oz, I was actually born out there to Scottish parents who moved 'home' when I was 10. My cousin was telling me about how crazy the house prices are now, it's bonkers! so I reckon you're on the right path to some kind of freedom from that shite 👌
