The UNTOLD TRUTH of a New Zealand Campervan trip

[@JordanandEmily]

hire your $1 a day Campervan here: www.imoova.com/en?via=jordanandemily

[@oxenrat]

Next time you get back down here, follow one coast down, middle islands up and one coast back down. If time allows, its the best way to see all the really different types of places we have. I really have enjoyed all of your travels world wide, just been partial to see you here - no idea why. Hobbiton was close to where I grew up, not so much your dad, more finished off growing there. Be safe, Aunty Rat x

[@JordanandEmily]

sounds like a good plan to me! We already want to come back - might have to try and convince the whole fam to come next time ;) xo

[@benpuss]

What an adventure! Enjoyed every moment

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks for watching along! 😊 it was a fun one!

[@DarrenandMelissa]

I take care of everything on the outside of our RV, and she takes care of everything on the inside of our RV. I day we traded on day, and she realized she had the better end of the deal!

[@JordanandEmily]

😄 it's a good idea to alternate and both get to see what the other does

[@joharrison3469]

Don't fll up with fresh water at the dump station! That outlet is contaminated. There is always a freshwater tap a few meters away. You can get ill doing that. Or, in this case, the next people renting your van might.

[@JordanandEmily]

Ooooo this is a very good tip, good to know! Thank you!!

[@suayhughes8103]

Enjoy watching you guys!!

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks Suay! 😊

[@richardcaldwell9160]

Thanks guys, I really enjoyed your video's

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@tiinah-b2326]

That worked out so well for you. Yes, I know how costly hiring one is because we did it back in 2007 when our 3 children were young (8, 11 and 13 at the time) but for a 3 week holiday, it was THE best family holiday. Question! If you have the time, can you do these $1 a day transfers back to back?

[@JordanandEmily]

It ended up great! 😊 such a good family holiday idea, you can definitely do the transfers back to back to back if you can time them up! 😀

[@hayleyrichardson9203]

I'm glad you showed the harder parts of van life cos it's not something I would think about it. I'd be so tempted to just avoid using the loo on board lol. Spotto reminds me of "punch buggy" but there's nowhere near as many VW beetles anymore

[@JordanandEmily]

Haha I remember punch buggy! Your right, don't see them much at all anymore 🤔

[@71jdanziger]

so what happens if you rent or own a yellow or pink vehicle? Do you just win spotto by default?

[@JordanandEmily]

Ooooh great question - I think you might 🤔🤣

[@DariaThomasNr1]

Love the intros! 😊

[@JordanandEmily]

We had fun doing them for the NZ series

[@gregnz1]

Diesel vans gets road charges, Visit Mount Te Aroha for the Summit Sunrise, Feb and March is best for a Surf n Beach experience. You can also harvest wild foods, if thats a KZbin Topic?

[@JordanandEmily]

Don't see why it can't be a youtube topic!

[@Frank-rx8ch]

At least you always have fresh water throughout.

[@JordanandEmily]

yeah! it's handy!

[@Waiheke-Transcend]

The deisel tax is actually Road Users Tax and nothing to do with the environment - because diesel cost doesn't include any road tax like petrol. This is because it's often used by farm and other 'off road' or sea vehicles which don't put pot holes in the roads. So you pay 7c per km when you're a road using vehicle. You'll also have noticed that diesel is less expensive than petrol - because it doesn't include any road tax. 😃

[@JordanandEmily]

This makes a lot of sense!! Thank you! 😊

[@sathishrajathiyagarajan4853]

How much kms you guys travelled totally which brings the diesel levy 144$??

[@JordanandEmily]

Sorry were really not sure what it was anymore! 😞

[@cjbrown3396]

Did you guys add the toliet fluid? It should be fine without the smell lol.

[@JordanandEmily]

It was already added when we picked the van up haha, maybe not enough? Haha

[@cjbrown3396]

@@JordanandEmily Oh Hi Jordan and Emily! You should add it every time you finished the business! The chemical additives will break down waste in your portable toilets. It's Biodegradable and environmentally safe. Also comes with good aroma. Try it :) I have used it during my camp years ago as told by an experienced camper.

[@JordanandEmily]

@@cjbrown3396 ohhh thank you!! 😊

[@marwilolay980]

How much is your van

[@JordanandEmily]

Renting such camper costs around 300$ a day.. how did you come up with 1$?

[@JordanandEmily]

Haha that's why it's such a good deal, we found a company that let's you relocate them for $1 per day.. also sometime they need them relocated so badly that they pay you for your fuel too! We linked the company in the description 😀

[@gregnz1]

Many buy a camping car, they buy from Backpackers,

[@Star-u3t1l]

You've done $1. a day before, why was this so different?????????????? Buy a composting toilet, much better. from Star Gazer

[@JordanandEmily]

Never had to do the toilets and water management haha

[@davidspencer4893]

RV life not van life😊

[@JordanandEmily]

😄 I guess your right!

[@Frank-rx8ch]

Toilet smelling like Rotorua🤔

[@JordanandEmily]

hahaha

[@greenfrog7070]

Fresh water from the dump station???🤮 Incredible how many people have no common sence with hygiene around these stations. Maybe you should stick to social media from inside your own walls.

[@JordanandEmily]

Hahaha welcome to the internet pal
