Van Life In Hay-On Wye The Worlds First Book Town
This week we travel to Wales for the first time in about a year to explore what they call the gateway to Wales. Filled with hidden alleyways and quaint streets this place is so unique. Hay On Wye borders between England and Wales. It has over 20 book shops and is great for Van life as you can park your Campervan or motorhome in the Hay On Wye Car park overnight. It’s one of the best places for Van life in Wales
WHO WE ARE?
Emma and Reese a married couple who for the last 10 years have been TRAVELLING around in various CAMPER-VANS. Now with our little dog Daisy we TRAVEL around in our SELF CONVERTED VAN showing you how to VISIT the VERY BEST PLACES the UK and EUROPE have to offer. We don’t pretend to be anything but ourselves and believe in always staying positive.
Our CAMPER VAN called Romany is a 2019 FORD TRANSIT VAN that is our TINY HOME ON WHEELS.
We have also bought a 57ft CANAL BOAT which we are currently converting and will be going between the VAN and the BOAT to live life to the fullest and bring you enjoyable CREATIVE VIDEO CONTENT.
If you LOVE TRAVEL, ADVENTURE or you are curious about VAN LIFE, LIVING IN A VAN and LIFE ON THE ROAD then you will most likely love our content.
Lastly we would like to say a big THANK YOU to each and every person who watches our channel and for the lovely comments. We love to hear from you

Good choice Hay on Wye. We have visited several times. Like yourselves we love the quirky shops. Great vid guys.
I now live in South Wales and have just started up a youtube channel for campervan travelling around and painting, your channel is so inspiring, it cool to watch two very genuine people just travel and enjoy life. Wales is awesome, i find it such a welcoming country, the language and culture and scenery is awesome. i look forward to see you exploring more one of my favourite youtube campervan channels. :)
Thanks so much 😊😊 glad you’re enjoying it. Yeah Wales is an incredible country you’re so lucky to live there. Best of luck with the CZcams channel 😊😊🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
@@romanypirates its a Country we moved to but have been so welcomed, but i definitely feel lucky to live here. thank you for wishing me luck with my youtube channel - i'm gonna need it, lol, i have travelled and painted for years - but filming and posting about it is completely new to me, i didn't realise how much planning, editing and filming goes into creating a video so i now have huge respect for everyone else who does this, it will be a long learning curve for me i think. look forward to seeing your next video. enjoy your travels. :)
Brilliant as always you have got to get that chandelier from that shop for the van lol
Thanks so much Neil really pleased you enjoyed it. Yeah we considered it 😂 😂 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️

Love this video. Added Hay on Wye to my list of places to go. I'm in Newport, so if you're heading onwards into Wales, you're more than welcome here! I could show you a few of the nice bits of Newport and even happy to introduce you to a good place for a caramel latte or two! Pretty sure my dogs would love to encounter Daisy and her barks too ❤. X
So glad you enjoyed it 😊😊 thanks for watching. Newport is definitely on the list now we will circle back soon and check it out definitely we’re wanting to do a good few weeks in wales when we come back. Yeah always interested in caramel lattes 😂 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴🏴🏴

Fantastic vlog guys!, We’ve been through Hay several times but never stopped, will definitely be stopping there now!👍

You were not far from Llanthoney Priory. It is worth a look.
Oh we will definitely check it out next time thanks for letting us know 😊😊
I love books but have to declutter my house ,no more space ...kindle is great but you cant compare having a real book in your hands.
Yeah I read quite a bit from my phone as it’s just easier so get what you mean but can’t beat holding a real book can you 😊😊😊
That sign is not actually the border.
Oh no 😢 😂 😂 you’re kidding? Haha where is it?
Further up the road towards the town where the road crosses Dulas brook is the border 26:33
