A Little About Us
Welcome to our channel! We are Liam and Janine, a husband and wife duo with a passion for travelling and living in a camper van. Over the years, we’ve embraced the van life, starting with vanlife in the UK with a Ford Transit camper van conversion and then upgrading to a Citroen Relay (luton) removals van campervan conversion. We absolutely love the freedom and adventure that comes with being a van life couple.
Following this we travelled to India, and now we are in a micro camper doing van life Europe

You make me cry Guys, Sardinia is the place where I come from, watching your video, it was like I was breathing the magical smell of "macchia Mediterranea" , something that I really miss living abroad! I'm sure you met simple but very genuine people, and you probably tasted gorgeous food and beer! Hope you will have the chance to come back to Sardinia, you will need at least 1 month to drive all around as every single corner of this ancient Island is beautiful ... Have a safe journey Guys!!!

Great video guys, I love the description of Sardegna. I moved here 20 years ago and I live on the south west coast. It's a shame that you didn't visit the less commercial part of Sardegna. You will love it, we even have mind blowing caves. The reason that you pay on some beaches is because people take the sand with them, so now they are protected. I have a small sailing boat and would love to show you some locations if you are ever down this way. Keep traveling.

[@margaretwilkin2242]

Thank you so much guys, that was wonderful! You're both having such amazing experiences and manage to make us feel a part of it! Loved it...🥰 Stay safe and keep well. 😊❤

Hi from Oz, love your videos, especially the ariel shots of areas, and the music is really wonderful. Also when you go to places like the caves it would be great if you'd show examples of the points you make, like the horizontal stalagmites. You're great videographers, and I think people would appreciate seeing more of the areas, towns you see, as some people watching will never be able to see these places, for all kinds of reasons, health, mobility etc. The shots with your drone are the icing on the cake!! Well done. See you next week, which I always loook fwd to! ❤

Sardinia is stunning..amazing amazing beaches. We found it very religious but that was a good few yrs ago. Enjoy. Re the beaches ye will find beaches further out from villages and towns that will not have a charge. We stayed in Pula in South. Bit far away from villages and cities but gorgeous. We travelled around. Don't leave Sardinia too soon. See all of it. Rome will be madness especially driving there so enjoy the serenity of Sardinia first. 😂

The Italians are great people. I had a very interesting conversation with an Italian guy who owned the motel we stayed in our last night in Italy. He said his wife was in Australia , our country, at the moment. We got to talking and he said something very interesting. He said the reason Australians and Italians get on so well is we have the same sense of humour, and he was right we do. As Australian humour and English humour is pretty much the same I think you’ll find you’re going to get on so well with the Italians too.
