SCOTLAND IS VANLIFE PERFECTION!! | Campervan wildcamp

[@Outlawes]

Scotland is just so spectacular! Nothing beats getting close to nature and truly enjoying the peace and quiet in the Highlands. Also... Pizza for breakfast.... HELL YES!

[@Professionalmoochers]

YES pizza is for all occasions 🤩 We agree, nature, especially Scottish nature is food for the soul! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼

[@randolph795]

Another lovely video. Stunning scenery and great camerawork. Well done.

[@Professionalmoochers]

Very kind of you to say so! Thank you 😁

[@drivinghorizons]

One day we will make it to Scotland!! Thanks for sharing. Looks stunning!!

[@Professionalmoochers]

It’s worth the effort, it really is! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼

[@TheNewbys]

Great start to a video Profs. love it. Well done. Beautiful scenery through the Vlog too. We are so excited to get back into Scotland and explore more. 👍

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks a lot! Beautiful isn’t it? Just have to hope the weather is kind to you 😁

[@neilrslater]

Love this place, one of my favourite locations. Nice jacket! (the Blue one)

[@Professionalmoochers]

One of ours too! Hoping to return next week. Greenland down jacket, it’s a bloody good winter work horse 💪🏼

[@ervinslens]

Amazing video and great editing.

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks a lot 😍 Glad you enjoyed it 👌🏼

[@neilgreer1313]

Just had 3 nights at the king's house hotel. Fantastic location, stunning scenery, excellent walking. Will go up in the van and try wild camping.

[@Professionalmoochers]

That hotel is beautiful, along with its surroundings. We hand fed deer there one year! We can’t wait to get back up there 😍

[@peten4043]

Stunning location guys and great vid…👍🏻nice pointer on the Glen Etive overnight spot

[@Professionalmoochers]

It’s a beauty isn’t it?? That Loch Etive carpark will blow your mind! Gets busy during the day though 👍🏼

[@peten4043]

@@Professionalmoochers I bet it does, we went a couple of years ago but didn’t go as far down as the car park as we just wanted to find the James Bond spot. Probably one to avoid during the summer months

[@aaronmaloney8282]

@@Professionalmoochers what time of year was this?

[@Professionalmoochers]

@aaronmaloney8282 this was December mate. October is a great time of year to visit as the midges should be gone by then 👌🏼

[@Smudger_83.]

You two have inspired me to to buy my first Vw camper. For myself and my 6 year old son adventures await. Cheers both 🍻 Jordan

[@Professionalmoochers]

Excellent! It’ll be the best thing you ever buy Jordan! Just keep thinking of new places to explore. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@gillianh]

Brill to see Oscar back out with you. We were back in Etive in October love that area, just love love Scotland, thanks for sharing guys.

[@Professionalmoochers]

It’s good to have him back for us too 😍 That area is easily one of our top UK locations, love it! Thanks for watching 👍🏼

[@TomAndJoeVlogsTJOutdoors]

Can’t believe I’ve only just found your channel now, it’s absolutely superb! New subscriber, easy choice. Loved all the time lapses, shots & drone work. Can’t beat a Maccies breakfast, set you up perfectly for the day and taste good anorl. 😆 Hoping your camera was alright? Seen that ship wreck on a few other peoples videos, nice spectacle as you say. Will binge through your videos, superb. All the best - Cheers Joe. 👍🏻🏔

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks very much! It’s a great location and yes, camera survived 😂 Cheers for checking in 👍🏼

[@Lou_Sylw_Bulgarian_Rescue_Dogs]

Nice one guys. Smiled the hole way through. Love your footage of the lochs. Scotland is so beautiful! We are so tempted to move there after our trip!👍

[@Professionalmoochers]

Too kind! 🙏🏼 We’d be right behind you if it wasn’t for the midges 😫

[@Lou_Sylw_Bulgarian_Rescue_Dogs]

@@Professionalmoochers The midges are horrendous. I think the worst we had them was at that big waterfall below Loch Na Gainmich. You can park by the lake but the midges were unbearable. Couldnt open the van door 😅

[@Professionalmoochers]

They’re relentless! Our dog was eaten alive on the exposed bits around his eyes. Never again! We’ve always fancied moving to the Lake District but that may change when we finally get to visit Norway 😉

[@feebeeadventures-vanlife7818]

Stunning shots there guys, really nice. If we’d have gone to see that ship wreck last week which we thought about doing, we have seen you guys! We were in the area at the same time we think. Glad you enjoyed Glen Etive in the winter, it gets quite busy on that road in the summer - with humans AND midgies 😧

[@Professionalmoochers]

You’d have also gotten wet 😂 We’ll never visit the highlands in summer, purely because of the midges! We did it in spring a few years ago, never again. Poor dog got eaten alive. Thanks for checking in 🙏🏼

[@micheledamschke2441]

Stunning landscape, captured so well. Hope you are ok Sarah. ❤️ Bloody Covid, we are in the throws of it too, in Melbourne. Thank you for this video. I have missed you.

[@Professionalmoochers]

Covid seems to be everywhere at the moment! Thanks for your comment, should be a few more regular videos on their way 😁

[@Professionalmoochers]

[@paulrobinson8263]

Excellent, never done it in the camper but on my list 👍

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks mate! It’s perfect for a van trip, so many areas to explore and great places to stay for the night 👍🏼

[@andyblake1849]

Great still of the shipwreck. All looks a bit wet- for a change eh 😂 Happy new year 🍻

[@Professionalmoochers]

We all knew the weather devil would catch up with us sooner or later 😉 Cheers for tuning in 🙏🏼

[@getawaygeese]

We stayed there when we first got our van and managed to camp in the valley but sounds like the anti fun police now have signs all the way down - great video guys

[@Professionalmoochers]

Unfortunately, post covid it got ridiculous in that area, hence the signs. Thank you 👌🏼

[@CamperVanya]

Scotland certainly is vanlife perfection! Some stunning scenery there and the loch reflections. Love the night sky shot that was pretty impressive. Look forward to seeing where you take us next. ATB to you all (especially Oscar! 😍). Sue.

[@Professionalmoochers]

It was brilliant having the chocolate hunk back in the van, he was in his element 😍 Thanks Sue 🙏🏼

[@LifeistooshortCK]

Beautiful shots of the stunning landscape and the night photography was amazing. Well done for braving the wet weather to see the ship wreck. Great to see Oscar out and about. Happy New Year 🍾😀

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks very much 🤩 It’s an amazing landscape, we just can’t get enough of Scotland. Hopefully we’ll have a few relaxed camping trips in the near future where the chocolate hunk can join us 😍 Happy new year to you both too.

[@stephensellick3642]

Alan…some of the shots in this video came out super stunning quality even on a 65 inch TV…can you tell me what camera you are using?

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks very much 🤩🤩 We’re very camera shy in public so when we’re in the wild, it’s easier to use a better camera and microphone. I’m mainly using a Sony A6600 with a Sigma 16mm F1.4 prime lens. Bought it for low light photography but it seems to work well for video. Cheers for watching 🙏🏼

[@nynkeafkedejong]

Hi, I also love to go wild camping. Here in The Netherlands it is easy. And not a lot of people are doing it. In England (and the UK) it is a lot harder to find a spot. Is there a website with good and nice places to park for one night with a camper van? Really like your canal. Best regards, Nynke

[@Professionalmoochers]

You’re right, it’s very tough in England, a lot easier in Scotland. I’d probably suggest Park4Night to find overnight parking. We just have to be discreet and be gone early in the morning. Thanks Nynke 🙏🏼

[@helenandmartinsTreks]

How close was that stag ! . Beautiful reflections we love it up there. We really enjoyed the drone footage , stunning locations thanks for sharing.

[@Professionalmoochers]

It was really dark and it sounded like someone was creeping up on us, flicked the torch on and there was this beautiful beast feasting on the grass! Thanks for your comment 🙏🏼

[@cali-camping]

Amazing night shot of stars and mountain… would love to know camera settings for that if you don’t mind sharing?

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks very much 🤩 It’s my first ever attempt at night photography so purely trial and error but… 16mm F1.4 ISO800 30 second exposure 👍🏼

Nice to find you guys, I was there with a big group of vans in October maybe check out my series and I see you in another.

[@Professionalmoochers]

Thanks Paul! I was tempted to join you after seeing the trip on Facebook but we were on a European road trip. Looks like we may have been slightly more fortunate with the weather but I guess that always gives us a reason to keep returning to such awesome landscapes. Cheers for checking in 🙏🏼

Looks stunning, 360 views, looks like you had a great time. Pea and ham soup in a small van....very brave lol

It’s out of this world, we love the highlands. I know, Sarah’s arse is like a brass band at the best of times 😂 You been getting out in the van?

How very rude. I am a lady. We have to evacuate when Alan let’s rip 💩💩

[@itsthenortherners]

@@Professionalmoochers haha beltin, not got out much yet, bit worried about this clean air zone thats due to be forced on us in Greater Manchester, going to cost us £10 a day just to drive the van anywhere so were not sure what to do yet, may have to sell it as £70 a week just to go shopping and normal day to day stuff is a bit much.

[@Professionalmoochers]

Yeh it’s not good at all!! I’m guessing your van is your daily drive too?

[@itsthenortherners]

@@Professionalmoochers My wifes the same after pea and ham soup.....well after most things really 🤣

[@ThePonkster]

Using a vehicle and parking in laybys and carparks is not "wild camping" - maybe you should familiarise yourself with the wild camping rules in Scotland. The unspoiled views of the Scottish Highlands are being ruined by the constant stream of campervans parked up in every flat space.

[@Professionalmoochers]

We know it’s not strictly wild camping and, we do wild camp on summits in our tent too but, who knows what you call it? You’re also correct in that, some landscapes are potentially spoilt by numerous vans parking up which is why we try not to park close to anyone else. It’d take a lot more than a few vans to ruin the Scottish landscape as one of the most beautiful on this planet. I also know a number of hikers who hate seeing tents set up, high in the beautiful mountains of Scotland and the rest of the UK, they say they put all that effort in to enjoy the landscape at its wildest yet, some choose to change that landscape by erecting a tent (especially when it’s bright red) but, these places are there for all to enjoy, including us. If everyone from all walks of life choose to respect the landscape then, it’ll stay beautiful long after we’ve gone, don’t you think?

[@ThePonkster]

@@Professionalmoochers I do agree and respect your response - I think all the users of the Scottish countryside will need to start showing it some respect before we loose our wonderful right to wild camp. I go on record as disliking campervans, however I like the cut of your jib and have subscribed to your channel - the campervan community needs more people like you two!

[@Professionalmoochers]

We better be on our best behaviour from now on then 😉 It goes for everywhere to be honest. If too many good people populate somewhere, it creates an eyesore. If only a few idiots congregate, the consequences could be even worse. This is why we try to escape when we can but living on an overcrowded island, we rub shoulders with all kinds. Thanks for joining us anyway and I appreciate your comments 👍🏼
