LEAVING EUROPE - SCHENGEN PROBLEMS FOR VAN LIFE

Guess what happens when you overstay your time in the Europe Schengen? We have to go south to another country which means it's moving day and it's a border crossing. Always a nervous and exciting time. Here we go, our 20th country with the 2 cats, Gmoney and Vanna in the Van. See you again Croatia, nice to meet you Montenegro. Let's go.
Cheers
Snow and Curt

👍🤩💝Awesome.

[@caroladams7868]

You guys are so brave to take your little home on wheels and the kitties to all these different countries. Very exciting and adventurous. I love going along with you.

[@marie-christinebaudelle3796]

When I studied at the University of Montreal, a friend of mine was of Romanian origin. She made me this type of coffee you drank, Turkish coffee, then in the end we turned our cups upside down for a few moments and repositioned them in place. That’s when she was reading the future in the coffee grounds. I doubt that my cup was as compliant as hers as I had added so much sugar in it. But anyway, we had a lot of fun together and this memory remained very sweet to me.

[@MM-ks7vs]

Thank you Kurt & Snow for your attention to share your 31 countries journey ! Good bless you guys!

[@SnowAndCurt]

Our pleasure!

[@susanlewis1875]

Absolutely gorgeous. I don't think I've ever seen bluer water. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@debyarger3084]

Those border crossings would have me so nervous. You two handle them so well!

[@bonniejackson1321]

Glad you found a sweet spot in Montenegro . Love how you do your homework. Much appreciated as a viewer.😍

[@SnowAndCurt]

Thanks for watching!

[@nanabrimpong3485]

​@@SnowAndCurtguys i don't think you have to be out of the schengen area should be 90 days before you come back.

[@lindasimmons-pe9ew]

Curt gets the gold medal for tight road driving…😂 I am with Snow makes me so nervous to see you maneuver around these tiny little streets. But you do a fantastic job, my hats off to you, and again thank you for taking us along on your beautiful journey. Stay safe and Keep on sharing the beauty. thank you.

[@rudfil]

Man!..your European journery is just endless beauty.❤

[@krisg3984]

Pretty coastal towns ! Glad you found sunshine. It makes all the difference, oh and nice people too !

[@2nd_of_3]

Wow.. 90 days already. Thank you for sharing your journeys with us ❤ Love to the Fuzzies

[@Ellyfromhereandthere]

Those Florida plates must start many a conversation😎 I must I admit I am a bit envious of all the different people you get to meet on your great journey. Safe travels and beautiful views from GA USA 🧘🙏🌎☮

[@beautyinwandering2697]

Amazing 🌎 we all live in and the fun is meeting and seeing and living each culture on the way around the 🌎 ❤thanks for the ride!!!Enjoy! 😊🎉

[@cintiapollock2486]

wow wish i could have tasted the coffee that sounds interesting I LOVE coffee lol Someday I am traveling around the world to drink coffee in every country that has it and keeping a coffee journal on it all 💖

[@nineiron1481]

WOW!! I think that was one of the most beautiful scenic drives I've seen you two take. Thanks!!

[@kathleenchild]

Beautiful scenery! Love your positive and adventurous spirit when travelling to new countries.

[@jeanward1198]

This is a part of the world I’ve never been to and know very little about. I was captivated while you were explaining what you are seeing and doing.

[@orawancarlile6192]

Thank you for taking all of us along on your journey with beautiful coastal towns and roads.

[@sharoncochran8508]

You are so brave. I appreciate traveling virtually with you because I love being at home.

[@sofia_ines]

You always make it to the best places! Imagine that, after all those narrow roads and no place to park...you arrive at that beautiful spot + you have a place to drink hot coffee, sit and experience your first Montenegro sunset! 😊❤ See you wednesday!

[@patworfka143]

Not me JUST realizing that your rear-view mirror is a camera... of course it is! So cool!

[@MsRotorwings]

When I heard Montenegro it reminded me of Shawshank Redemption, Andy telling Red that that’s where he’d go if he ever got out of prison. Obviously, a different part of the world. The roads in Montenegro remind me of the narrow roads of Bermuda. I’ve been to Europe, but not the Balkans. I love the beauty of the coast. Thanks for taking us along.

[@SpacyMidnight]

When you learn how to say Herzegovina it is a very beautiful name 🤍🩶🩷 it’s so nice to see this landscape 💫💫

[@michelleclark9445]

Good morning Snow and Curt ☀️ I love how you two make friends wherever you go. It says a lot about who you guys are and how you treat everyone 🥰 Snow, I was thinking something similar when you mentioned yours and Curt's ways of handling different situations. Your right, it's the perfect balance. I need to be more like you and have a bit more patience 🤪 Have to say, that's one fine overnight spot you found. Your view is stunning, and that Bay WOW! I imagine that the sunset is going to be something else over those hills and water. The water looks so inviting, you'd almost want to dive in. However, it's probably a bit too chilly at this time of year. Looking forward to seeing what you kids get up to in your new country. Safe travels, 🤗🇨🇦🙏

[@ib14julikos]

Hello from Greece, when I travel and cannot find a parking, we always ask the police or owners of shops or restaurants, they know the places. Croatia was very interesting and Montenegro looks beautiful too, greetings from Kos

[@mimiks3784]

22:44 😮Gorgeous view!! What a neat little cafe, I can’t wait to see y’all explore this new place! Cheers guys

[@myrnaedmisten599]

That was a beautiful drive! You two are a wonderful travel team…❤

[@BorahaeJoy]

My maternal grandfather and ancestors before him were from Montenegro and I’ve only ever heard about it as my Grandfather came to the US when he was young. I’m excited to see the country as you travel through it!

[@carolsdarksarcasm4223]

Its beautiful!

[@kallasusort2986]

Another beautiful Country that I never heard of before!

[@vivienogden9916]

Yes we do use iOverlander in Europe all the time, please do add info as you go. The reason there aren’t so many camping spots is that they get over used then the no overnight camping signs go up. There are spots in Montenegro just go inland. It’s great how your American vehicle draws attention in Europe, we found the same with our U.K. camper in the USA, we met lots of lovely people because of it. Love that bit round the lake in Montenegro, strike inland at the far end.

[@spikejones8684]

Thanks for beautyful video!🙋🇨🇿🌻

[@gabygaedecke2411]

Montenegro was our favourite part of the trip in the fall - that bay is STUNNING, and we stayed in a small BnB directly by the water. Awesome. As you leave Kotor, things will get decidedly more "Soviet relic" in nature - much less European. Less English, less product availability, less tourist friendly. But authentic, and beautiful.

[@SFNativeGal]

I can’t believe how time flies watching your travels!! Happy your border crossings went so well. I’d be so nervous handing I’ve my passport. Very glad you are settled into a nice camp site and were able to taste Turkish unfiltered coffee. I enjoyed Greek unfiltered coffee when I visited that country. Very tasty for sure. Can’t wait for your next video. Thank you so much for taking the time to send us videos to enjoy. God bless your journey always.

[@jodybuck7498]

Border butterflies!!! We’ve traveled between US/Canada and Costa Rica/Panama and EVERY TIME we get border butterflies.

[@gtyler-2551]

Wow it's absolutely beautiful water of the bay!!! Sometimes I hold my breath when you guys go through the narrow roads but both of you are great drivers!!! THANKS GUYS FOR SHARING ❤ CHEERS GUY'S 🍻 👏 ✌️ 👍

[@karenlowes7802]

You look so happy! I can just taste the coffee❤

[@janete4612]

Wow beautiful coast amazing blue sea ❤

[@mariamcclanahan470]

God be with you❤❤ so nice thanks

[@brianmombourquette2673]

You guys are so good at finding joy 😊

[@SharaBinghamMills]

Great! Now I have to wonder if you;re going to get "the knock" for a week. Cheers!

[@drthomason7043]

The skies getting bluer and brighter, water too.

[@heraldocosta1469]

Croatia and Montenegro are fantastic drive in the coast. If you go Macedonia I recommend, Ohrid, right in a beautiful lake. If you keeping drive all the way to Bulgaria there are a lots things to see there; I recommend Plovid, has a very well preserved Roman ruins and Rila monastery in the mountains. Safe travel. I enjoying very much your videos. Obrigado

[@TopazFarmerTravels]

What a beautiful drive

[@dogshowlife575]

what a lovely drive into Montenegro.....that is one area of Europe I would love to see

[@BethMartinez-r8b]

Can't wait to see Montenegro. I heard it's even more amazing than Croatia.

[@beckykukoski8678]

Great information Snow

[@grumpyoldlady_rants]

Glad you found a place to park. What a beautiful coastline!

[@SnowAndCurt]

It really is!

[@terrythomas3755]

Another great post, guys. Thank you.

[@jch1965]

I never realized that area was so beautiful! The water is gorgeous. Thank you both so much for sharing your adventures. Safe travels. ❤

[@issieanderson2083]

Wild boar can total your vehicle and frequently do, which is why there are so any warnings.

[@nicholaceho9679]

I love Montenegro ❤ my favourite place is Kotor love it x

[@claudiah5643]

Mine too! Sure hope they go there.

[@coffee6783]

Greeks and Cypriots make coffee the same way, and normally have a glass of water with the coffee too.

[@carolsdarksarcasm4223]

Stunning countryside

[@seviregis7441]

In a way, it was good that the other camping spots were closed, because the one that was open, was the most beautiful of the bunch. Montenegro looks lovely so far. Looking forward to learning more about this Country. I enjoy Snow’s narratives about each place, her voice is pleasant and the information is always interesting. I’ve really gotten the travel bug from seeing your journeys. Hope to begin my own soon. Love, peace, and blessings to you.

[@rootstorising7348]

I agree, I always look forward to Snow's informative and sometimes historic narratives. I also enjoy getting a peek at the inside of shops and meeting people.

[@jillcoe4695]

You are in our favorite locations. Dubrovnik, Montenegro. It was beautiful. They have the best olive oil.

[@OLDS98]

Thank you for sharing your travels and journey. The footage of where you are traveling is always interesting especially seeing how people live and taking in the many roads and views.

[@marthafelix6762]

Thank you both for sharing your adventures ❤❤

[@lindaolson2691]

Looking forward to Montenegro. I watched another van couple last year, there, Beautiful, nice trip. Thanks.

[@pkmagic]

Great spot!

[@ClaireBear-dt1mj]

Love your videos. Watching from Australia heading to Europe soon. Great to see where you're going and get some tips. Maybe see you in Croatia. ☺️

[@sammayet9002]

Awesome, amazing and beautiful ❤❤❤ enjoy 🎉🎉🎉

[@mariecruz5509]

Your videography is super! I have become an armchair traveler through you folks! Beautiful view of Montenegro and Croatia ❤ your Adventures are classic!

[@anpeeters9916]

Montenegro is really beautiful! In the city center of Kotor there are a lot of cats! It’s also called the cat city. I loved it. I would also recommend Bosnia for a visit. It’s really beautiful, easy for vanlife and a lot cheaper then Croatia and Montenegro. And it is as stunningly beautiful! I went there a few year ago and I absolutely loved it and would like to go back there again.

[@gnaastiin2963]

Incredible!!

[@suzanneethier1450]

Hi guys love seu❤ hope your injoying

[@meowzic]

Had no idea that there was a country named Montenegro.. Feeling very American, but this channel has been an amazing geography lesson 😂

[@sandollarj504]

Beautiful blue water.. Were you able to sleep that night after your Turkish coffee? What a blessing to stay there.

[@suefitz2498]

I’m loving these tours, so lovely to see the things you’re seeing ❤❤❤

[@CM-zl2jw]

Another fascinating video. I so grateful to get a boots on the ground view of the eastern block countries. Montenegro looks better than Croatia. I heard good things! 👏 Are things less expensive? Friendly to westerners?? Love the Turkish coffee. ❤ buzz!! I’m so happy for you.

[@christinemcritchie1359]

I was there just before Covid and just loved it. So many steps every where. It’s so beautiful. Also went to Montenegro while there and really loved it.

[@cherylreed4377]

So beautiful!!

[@anneandrew3298]

Good morning again. Looking forward to this new adventure from 1am Australia

[@CMB0401]

Have you thought about writing ebooks for purchase covering van travel in Latin America and then Europe? There is so much to know and having an ebook reference would be so helpful for us future travelers. I bet ebooks would also interest any traveler going to the same areas you have explored! Love your channel ❤️

[@lavender26155]

I have only been to Kotor in Montenegro and it was stunning ! I am loving this opportunity to see more of the country !

[@DanishViking]

Wild boars taste delicious 😊

[@magnefauli]

A tip for you birdlovers in May -> the Danube Delta, Romania, but BE AWARE, Romania and Bulgaria will enter Schengen at the end of March.

[@carolsdarksarcasm4223]

What is Schengen?

[@magnefauli]

​@@carolsdarksarcasm4223 Schengen is a small town in Luxembourg where the Schengen agreement was signed. The Schengen agreement is an agreement allowing for free travel without any border controls between most EU and some non-EU countries. Travelers that are not citizens or residents of a country that is party to the Schengen agreement are only allowed a total of 90 days in the zone in each 180 days period. The fact that Romania and Bulgaria is joining the zone at the end of March could potentially be a challenge to travelers who were planning to be in these countries to accumulate new Schengen allowance days.

[@mschlund1]

Gorgeous😍

[@robinbeals1799]

Good Morning from New Mexico. Safe travels. Beautiful scenery

[@dorismcgirt686]

I was in Dubrovnik in 1993 during the war - on my way from Bosnia, where I spent some time during the war, and to get back home to the U.S. My recollection of this wonderful city is it came out of the war with some, but what could be called minimum damage. The beautiful city of Split, Croatia also suffered minimum damage. Of course, all of this was comparable to the massive damage Bosnia and parts of Serbia suffered. These countries have great people and great food. When you 2 were eating at a Croatian restaurant the other day, I believe the "red stuff", which looked perhaps like a salsa, was ajvar. Which is a very traditional food for all of former Yugoslavia. Almost all Europeans are familiar with ajvar because they love to holiday in the former Yugoslavian countries. I hope you get to spend a lot more time there after your 90 days outside of Schengen are met.

[@renatogoncalves2412]

Je Volim Croatia!!!!!! Its beautiful. Ive been there and fell in love.

[@gthornton3]

Good morning from San Antonio Tx. I’m 1st

[@SnowAndCurt]

Morning! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Stephanie-kt9vh]

Oh my I LOVE the place you guys ended up, it's so quaint, it looks so peaceful. Prayers for traveling mercies and great health and amazing heart memories!!

[@SnowAndCurt]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jamietipton5743]

Your videos always make me nervous! Driving in the US makes me nervous!

[@naylabyxbe3411]

This is so fun! I love you guys and think of you often…along with those often thoughts is always a prayer for your well being! Peace out!

[@candyclemens4432]

Oh yes, go back to swim in that lovely blue water. 😅❤ Have a great life journey.

[@SnowAndCurt]

We will!

[@normaevett]

So beautiful! And friendly locals!

[@SnowAndCurt]

Very friendly!

[@RhodaVanLeer]

Thank you for taking us along in your travels and enjoying all the information you always pass along , including the Games of Thrones info. Ha !

[@SnowAndCurt]

Thanks for watching!

[@Suzie-he9ni]

Good morning! Every Saturday it's coffee and Snow and Curt. That's a beautiful town you are in. I know you like to surprise us but how soon will you be in Switzerland? Austria?

[@MelliaBoomBot]

What an adventure..Im from the UK and live in France but Im really looking forward to the eastern Europe arm of the journey..Your videos pop up in quite a few of my conversations these days too, if anyone wants to know about travelling I mention you guys! safe travels!

[@jenh9252]

Me too, I am in Spain😊

[@mattgordon9179]

A little bit of ground Cardamom goes well with that style of coffee :)

[@NyreeAlana]

It looks really beautiful!!! I love the park up that you found! This is a country I know nothing about at all, so I'm excited to find out more! ❤

[@jben22]

I loved the moment you found the camping spot with coffee. It’s gorgeous. Felt like i was there with you! Snow I am the same as you with being a nervous nelly on the road in the van when spots are tight and roads are narrow.

[@caroladams7868]

Yay for spot number 2!

[@lesliebarrett4390]

I like trying to use my Spanish when traveling I am always amazed how many understand English

[@terizumbusch8408]

Boy this was an absolutely stunning video. What a beautiful area. I never knew that part of the world looked like this. It's gorgeous. I'm sure the interior is less so , but oh my goodness , this is so beautiful. I'm loving seeing the rest of the world through your eyes. So I imagine you can go to UK and Ireland and Scotland for 90 days after you do the next 90 day. Turn, that's kind of crazy though. For people who actually want to take 6 months and just travel. But oh well , you're doing good.

[@lissalack1490]

I'm excited to explore Montenegro with you.

[@lifeoflucretia]

👋 HELLO FROM, EUGENE, OR! 🎉 I LOVE U 2!❤

[@SnowAndCurt]

Hello!!

[@sharonhaas8503]

💝💖💗

[@Tucker777888]

Question !!!! Snow & Curt -- Do you have a language translator app on your phones? You know, where you can ask a question in English and the app will speak the other person's language to them.

[@SnowAndCurt]

Yes we do have the Google Translator and we use it quite frequently. But it can be cumbersome so not something you can always count on depending on who you are communicating with.🍻😎☮️🙏

[@pattiwhite9575]

Again the Views! Everything look new built and clean. That water color is so inviting. I read many warnings about camping there. The main city area has some crime against campers. I think you found one of the best places to camp but are at end of the town. I think there is another great place inland next to a forest that will have camping. Best of luck.
