We are those Weirdos, a family of 7: 3 people, 2 cats and 2 dogs living and travelling full time living the Vanlife in our LWB self converted Sprinter van. We are currently travelling in Spain, having left the UK at the end of June. Here we cross over into Spain over the Pyrenees. We have the sad news that some of our fave park ups are no more! We get trapped in a car park AGAIN, and we realize it's been a shockingly long time since we had a 'proper' shower!
We live and travel full time in mainland Europe in a converted DHL delivery van with 2 adults, 1 child, 2 dogs and 2 cats.
We'd love you to subscribe to our channel so you don't miss future episodes of our adventures on the road as a family of 7! Read our blog: http://www.thoseweirdos.online

Hello! In today's episode, we have some very exciting news! We've decided to put an offer in on one of the off grid properties we've viewed in Central Portugal. Which off grid property did we choose?
We're searching for our own slice of heaven to start a homestead. We decided to base our search around the Castelo Branco region of Portugal, as the land here is not only beautiful, but far cheaper than the Algarve. Equally, there are many off grid families in the region, and we wanted to be close to a community of like-minded people.
We were 'stuck' in the UK (again) since returning to see loved ones over Christmas while we waited for our D7 Visa for Portugal. After nearly 6 months of waiting, we got to leave! This was a mammoth task as we had to transit through France to Spain in 24 hours or less! (see previous videos) Now we are finally looking at land in Portugal. Follow us on our adventure to the sun! As we start looking for land in Central Portugal that we can turn into our own off grid haven.

We are those Weirdos, a family of 7; 3 people, 2 cats and 2 dogs living and travelling full time living the Vanlife in our LWB self converted Sprinter van. We've spent the last 3 months in Spain, mainly on some pretty remote beaches, the weather was simply gorgeous!
Here in a 'special' edition are our fav park ups form the last 3 months, filmed on our Mavic drone!
We've been living in our van for over a year now, we've seen so many wonderful things and so many beautiful places. We thought for the next leg of our adventures we'd document all our park ups in this new series 101 Park Ups here in a special drone edition.
We normally live and travel in full time in mainland Europe in a converted DHL delivery van with 2 adults, 1 child, 2 dogs and 2 cats. In the future we will cover topics such as Rosie's education, living with 2 cats AND 2 dogs, minimisation, adjusting to nomadic van life, wild camping, our van, people we meet on the road and why you should live or choose an alternative lifestyle, plus what happens after too many beers!
We'll also be soliciting questions via our social media or if you have any questions feel free to post them in the comments. We'd love you to subscribe to our channel so you don't miss future episodes of our wafflings, as well as our Cooking in a Van episodes plus Rosie's Van Tours and our other adventures on the road as a family of 7!

We destroy our old food forest and PUT our SWALES in following PERMACULTURE PRINCIPLES. After running out of water in 2022 we decided to completely redesign our garden and put in a FOOD FOREST. We observed our garden in year 1 and learnt HOW to deal with the EXTREME WEATHER and DROUGHT here in Central Portugal.
