The Drunken Van Chef: Cooking in a Van - Living Van Life - Episode 2 - Paella for 7 I'm really pleased to put up this van life cooking video - the second in our "Cooking in a Van" series. After a few too many Guinness' I cooked Paella for seven people which we ate by the camp fire on the beach in Portugal. During and especially after filming I was dubbed the Drunken Van Chef - what a reputation eh?! Special guest appearances by the cats and dogs as well as Greg Virgoe, Gadget John, Lou and Mandy, and of course ourselves Dom, Missy and Rosie Follow the recipe for our Vanlife Paella making it Vegan OR add fish/meat, its relatively easy and a wonderful meal to have whilst travelling on your van. We don't have an oven and have 2x LPG burners and wanted to show how well we eat, despite what may appear as a limitation without an oven, how versatile and easy vanlife cooking can be. I tend to make things up as I cook, so wanted to share some of my recipes and van cooking 'secrets' with you. The secret is that it's easy! We have been travelling as a family in our own self built Sprinter campervan conversion for 8 months. We travel with 2 dogs and 2 cats, and work online as we go. Rosie has been home educated since she was 6, we unschool and will make a video all about that soon too :) We'd love you to subscribe to our channel so you don't miss future Cooking in a Van episodes plus Rosie's van tours and our other adventures on the road as a family of 7!

Hello! In today's travel diary we see our regular feature 101 Park Ups starting season 2 as we head from Valencia through Murcia and Into Andalusia. We encounter no real problems travelling in Spain currently, all the local borders were open to tourists and nomad travellers like us etc. We did unfortunately encounter a biblical storm which moved us off a glorious Van Life park up right on the beach, and onto a campsite for some much-needed electrical hook up and editing.... We also get moved on by the Guardia and ended up sleeping overnight on waste ground in Benidorm!

Hello! In today's episode, we sign the deeds on a stunning off grid property in Portugal, Lobateira, which were renaming 'The Wild Lands'. We've been 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. Tonight sign the deeds on property number 3 'Lobateria'. A large wild bit of land of 1.2 hectares with massive boulders, arable terraces and a really rickety ruin. The asking price is E17,500, and we purchased the land for E14,000, all the other associatted purchase costs are listed in the video. 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. ?
