the PERFECT VAN LIFE COUPLE! - VAN LIFE - SLOVENIA

[@jgkgintx]

We really appreciate your taking the time to not only remind us about picking up litter, but doing so in your videos. Two sayings come to my mind, here are paraphrases of them. "Walk gently on this good earth" and "We will be known forever by the tracks we leave." You guys are good at walking gently and leaving good tracks. Cheers! John

[@theexPAWers]

jgintx Thanks so much John, great sayings... It takes no time at all the pick up litter like this and if everyone did it, imagine the difference!!hope your having a good weekend 😁😁

[@garyvandweller6959]

Upmost respect for clearing other people’s litter, I wish people would do this across the globe. A few minutes work to make things beautiful again. 👍💕

[@theexPAWers]

Gary New van dweller Yes! That is literally all it takes, a few minutes, now if everyone spent just a few minutes a day doing this, imagine what we could achieve! Thanks so much for watching 😁😁

Multiscan 0001 Thnaks so much! 😁😁 xx

[@pamj5318]

Thank you for picking up litter and letting campers know the importance of leaving a place cleaner than you found it. I have the same kind of trash grabber. Very handy.

[@theexPAWers]

Pam J Hey Pam, thanks so much for watching! The trash grabber is great, far better than wearing a disposable glove and picking up after people! I love it! 😁😁

[@Debbieanne51]

I'm hooked on you two lovely people, sending you lots of love for keeping me entertained xxx

[@theexPAWers]

Deborah Anne awwww! Brilliant 😉 thanks Deborah ❤️❤️

[@madeinmichigan6773]

The best toast I make is when I toast it in the toaster first, then butter it and let it sit for breakfast the next morning. Then put the toast back into the toaster and it's AMAZING!!! PERFECT CRUNCH THROUGH AND THROUGH. Plus the taste is so much deeper than just the quick toast. 😊

[@theexPAWers]

Made in Michigan 67 Ohhhh, sounds interesting! Will have to try that at some point😉... We do love our toast!! 😋😋 xx

[@itsnotlevel2]

Haha....you guys ARE the perfect #vanlife couple....I F'n dig it!........................Pick up litter, plant a tree, after all we stay for FREE! You guys are great....I would bet its a privilege to be friends with you two...no, wait....four! Doggoooos!

[@richardwhitwam3011]

Hi you guys really enjoyed the video,if everyone was like you we would have a lovely clean environment, safe traveling and looking forward to your next video😀

[@theexPAWers]

Richard Whitwam Thanks so much Richard! Yes it’s really satisfying to clear up an area like this and takes no time at all😉... My pick-up stick is great.. Hopefully more people will buy one to take on their travels😁😁

[@niklas67]

Love your attitude, all the best!

[@theexPAWers]

niklas67 ThankYou! 😁😁

[@ttxela]

Great little campsite, always good to have a camp fire. Amazing the places people leave rubbish. We also find it deep underground 🙁

[@theexPAWers]

ttxela Thanks so much, yes it’s terrible.. Some of the amazing places in the nature we’ve stayed at have been completely ruined by people’s rubbish, it’s such a shame! We will continue to pick up after people as much as we can, it’s really no effort and so satisfying when you can clear an area of trash!😉😁 x

[@callmemagicfish]

glad to see that you pick up your campsite, as I do! It's a shame people act like this, but i pick it up hoping, as you do, that people respect the area more. I actually bought, recently, a trashstix, which has two stainless steel prongs that are retractable. Works great. As another of our fave youtubers shows in most of his videos "responsible campers keep public lands open".

[@veevanvoom5863]

Love your teachings. Hope their listening.

[@theexPAWers]

Vee Van Voom Thanks so much! Every little helps and if we all pick up abit of litter every now and then, the world would be a prettier place! Hope your enjoying your weekend 😊😊

[@getawaygeese]

Have to say Slovenia is a place to tour when we finally do Europe. You have made me think about litter picking etc as if we all did it well .... who knows as ever entertaining well shot vid ... we are getting more adventurous with our new van ....

[@theexPAWers]

GetawayGeese Hey Guys, yes you should definitely include Slovenia in your Europe trip, beautiful Country😉.. And yes, you should also get a litter-pickup stick for your van, it’s much nicer staying in a wild lovely camp spot after you clear it of rubbish! Really satisfying with the stick! Hope your enjoying your weekend 😁☺️ xx

[@nealeburgess6756]

Good tips for making better toast. Leave the bread under the grill for less time. Keep an eye on toast to make sure you remove it when it becomes a nice tanned shade. Turn bread over. Repeat the above. Clever. Works like magic!

[@theexPAWers]

Neale Burgess Lol! That’s really how you do it?🤣🤣... Thanks!😉... We do occasionally have normal toast btw, just not that often.. Lol x

Makes me happier to watch you guys. Positive life. I'm 60 my hubby is 70..We lived our lives picking up other people's garbage. It's horrible. Croatia I think is the new Yugoslavia my son in law is from Yugoslavia.. my dil is Mexican Italian. Her father was born raised in Italy and her mommy was born raised in Acapulco mexico. Aren't we all melted colorful candles. Lol I love trees and agree.. plant more trees. Nice message thank you. Btw I could reach virtually through this phone and snatch hug those 2 furbabies of yours. Exercise ah naw..when I grow up maybe.. Lolol love to you both. Be safe have a great time.

[@upfreaks]

I've worked with many Croatians, Serbs (Serbia and Montenegro), Kosovo Albanians, Macedonians and Bosnia Herzegovina over the years and the only thing they all agreed on was they are NOT from Yugoslavia and are highly insulted when referred to as Yugos..!!

[@TrinityRidge1959]

Really.. I haven't a clue the dynamics of the nationality. I will ask my sil Sinisa next time I see him. Interesting info. Huge Yugoslavia community here in Michigan. Interesting info.. thank u

Balsam Acres Wow, yes quite a nice mix of people in you family then! 😊😊 It’s just terrible that so many folks drop garbage... Good on you and your Husband for picking up Garbage, you shouldn’t have to, but that’s the way the world is! We have stayed at so many lovely places around Europe and some have been ruined by this, it’s such a shame that folks disrespect the environment this way, we will continue to do our bit and pick up after others. It’s really not that difficult and makes you feel great to clear up an area like in our video and since getting our pick-up-litter stick it’s actually enjoyable😉 hope your having a great weekend😁😁 xx

[@DinoHF79]

We have Arbor Day & Earth Day every year in the USA. Those are the times set up to clean up the neighborhood, & to plant flowers & trees. The school sends home little tree shoots, ready for planting on Arbor Day. Nearby they do a run on Earth Day, to raise money for a local charity. The kids' Cub Scouts & Girl Scouts Troops, pick up road litter & recycles bottles. It's something we should all do year around, you both are a great example! Love you both! XXOO

[@theexPAWers]

DinoHF79 Thankyou😊😊... Yes hats off to everyone who takes time to pick up litter! It’s really not much effort and makes you feel good, giving something back! 😉

MrFergusferret Yes, we wish more people would pick up the litter, it’s terrible when you find lovely places to camp and it’s been ruined by trash! Terrible really, this trip is coming to an end, but don’t worry as we have lots more videos to come and we are planning the next trip already! 😉as soon as the weather heats up abit we will be off again! .. xx

[@upfreaks]

How do you keep finding these nice little hidden-away campsites all the time..? Especially if it can't be seen from the road..!

[@theexPAWers]

upfreaks haha, if we told you that we would have to kill you! Lol.. 🤣... A lot of the stops we stay are on Park4Night app. We also like to find our own little gems! We look at google maps near rivers, lakes etc and see if there’s any little roads leading down there😉 this place was hidden away and we were going to stay further south and we pulled off the road to let someone past and spotted a little dirt track leading down! Bingo! Always the best spots are the unexpected ones😉😁 x

[@sunnybuttercups3272]

You guys are awesome!!! If everyone did that the planet would be a little better off! And for once I watched your video at a normal time of day, not hungry in bed so I could live with seeing your broast!!!!

What a beautiful idea to carry seeds and plant trees ...when Adele and I walk down to Treyarnon bay or Constantine Bay we do a 2minute which turns out to be a 10 minute litter pick...something a lot of locals do here in North Cornwall @11.20 was that you Sarah on that poster in that shopping mail 🤣🤣 And nice drone footage Dave n Adele ♥️🐕🐕

[@theexPAWers]

DNA vanlife It’s so satisfying to pick up litter and clean an area up! Before we got the pick-up-litter stick, we use to take the disposable gloves from petrol stations when filling up. But the stick is fantastic. It’s really no hassle and doesn’t take much to clear a whole area. Good on you guys and the locals who pick up after people there in Cornwall 👏👏 Litter really does ruin beautiful spots.... Hope your having a good weekend xx
