Hello Everybody!

In this video, we share what we have learnt during our damp repair on our 1999 Elddis Knightsbridge caravan. We share a load of tips that will be helpful to anyone about to undertake a similar repair on their caravan, as well as discussing those tools that we felt made the job much easier. Finally, we discuss how much the project cost and whether we felt it was worthwhile.

Who are we?
We’re Jamie & Stacey McNeill, two, 30-something professionals, who’d had enough of the rat race in summer 2018, when we quit our jobs and sold our house, in order to live full time in a touring caravan in Wales.

Our channel shows our journey living this way, the highs, the lows and everything else in between. We also use our platform to advocate to others, the benefits of living a lower stress, more balanced lifestyle.

We have built our YouTube reputation to date on honesty and integrity – you won’t find us using ‘click bait’ titles or nudity to draw in ‘cheap views’. We’re here for the long-term to show that this way of living can be a lifelong change for you as well as us.

If you’d like to make contact with us, we’d be delighted to chat with you. We read and respond to every video comment, so feel free to raise a question or anything else that’s on your mind.

Best wishes,
Jamie & Stacey
