- From sitting in the B&Q parking lot to changing our burnt out tail light, the first 24 hours to vanlife was... interesting and eventful to say the least 😅 Now that we have the hard stuff done, we are able to officially start our adventure through the UK. First up, Wales!

ABOUT US:
Hey! We are Kyle and Madie, two 20-something year old kids who live to travel. We have been together since 2016 and graduated college in December of 2021. We left August 27, 2022 to travel the world and travel on a budget of $60 a day as a couple. Follow along with us to see some epic places and see if we are able to stay on budget. Cheers! :)
A lovely touch from the food truck guy with the pay-it-forward breakfast ❤
Right??? SUCH a kind guy ❤️
I just found your channel. I’m an American who has lived in the UK for 15 years and I love seeing your perspective of this place! I hope you enjoy it. The UK is beautiful. I’ll deffo keep watching.
Hey!!! Welcome :)
We always laugh about how DIFFERENT the US and UK are even though we were all one not that long ago. I think every single day we say "this is ____???" wherever we are because we had no idea it was this beautiful! We have a lot of fun videos coming up, so we're so happy you're along for the ride!
Where are you originally from in the states? 😄
If you haven't figured it out by now--- the culture gap between the USA and Europe is completely different!!!!!!!! People in Europe are genuinely interested in their QUALITY OF LIFE rather than their financial wellbeing. I am an Irish citizen but have lived in the U.S. for forty plus years. When I go to social functions people ask "What do you do for a living/work. In Ireland/England people ask "What do you do for fun/recreation???". The emphasis is on your wellness not on your wealth. I hope you take in the culture of your journey and learn how humans can have happiness in many different ways. Enjoy your trip. Be safe and be good to each other!!!
For sure!!! I’d have to completely agree with you! Thanks so much 😁
ups and downs and all arounds have fun and be safe.
There are always ups and downs to anything! Thank you so much ❤️😁
How crazy that you stopped at Stockbridge 😂
right?? We saw that it was right next to where we were going and HAD to go. Why not spend the first night in the town twinned with your home? 😅
You started with an unpleasant incident, then it must only be good. I always admire and have fears when someone starts driving on the left for the first time. Good luck and don't let the bad start disturb you in your further journey.
We completely agree! We said it could only get better from there 😁 it was definitely daunting driving on the left side at first, but we keeping saying how when we go over to Europe and have to drive on the right side again, it’ll feel weird!
Just found your channel. That was a lot to cope with in a new country when you didn't know the best places to go. I'm so glad someone took pity on you and gave you a freebie. What a nice guy. Hopefully, it will be all plain sailing from now on. And yes, you will definitely have to get used to smaller roads here in the UK lol.
Being in a new country where we don't know the stores and what each one has definitely did add to the stress! You take for granted when you're at home and know exactly what store to go to and where to look in that store... Thank you so much for watching! We really appreciate it :)
Good luck guy's! Everything will fall into place ! Enjoy your European adventures. New channel name Vanlife with Kyle and Madie 😉
Thank you so much! Everything by the end of the first full day seemed to be a little better. fully prepared to take on vanlife UK 😍😁
Great, enjoyable vlog!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Welcome to the UK, enjoy you adventures! I've subscribed and will see how you get on. Glad you started your journey in my neck of the woods, Salisbury (pronounced like Sorls-bury by the way 😉). Much of my campervan came from that B&Q 😉 and Funky Burgers are really good 😋👍
we can't even begin to tell you how wrong we pronounce things here... good to know 😅 thanks for coming along!! We are continuously more and more surprised about how BEAUTIFUL the UK really is! ❤️
@@kyleandmadie 😂🤣 Hopefully the weather gets a bit better for you🤞 Enjoy!
I wish you the best for your travels during van life. I remember our talks at the farm when Cameron and I were going in with our dog to shop. You have made it happen. I'm sorry that there has been a few "bumps" in the road. I believe that good karma will come to you after staying in Stockbridge. We wish you well from your/our home town.
❤️ thank you so much! It means so much to us for you to follow along!
£60 pounds for a tank of petrol isn't bad in the UK regarding that you are driving a big van = big tank. There was a point 6 months ago where it was $10 per gallon
Unfortunately we only filled the tank up about 1/3 of the way… it costs about £160 to fill all the way up 🥲
Could be worse with recent prices. Don't fill up on motorways fuel is much more and also go to supermarket stations for cheapest
CANT BELIEVE IT , YOU PUT EGGS BACK BECAUSE OF A FEATHER, THAT SHOWS THEY ARE PRETTY FRESH LOL
We just didn’t want those ones lol
Blimey, I hope you got the handbrake repaired ( I assume your did) because your van would not be considered roadworthy over here.
Hi, I find u channel let's the adventure begin, good luck...🤓🏞🚌💯
Woohoo!!! Thanks for coming along 😁❤️
