I Couldn’t afford a house… so I built my own on wheels.
(Only took me 3 years and all my money 😅)
Now it’s me, Winnie the dog, cosy van life, beautiful nature and epic road trips !
I have been travelling solo for nearly two years now. I haven’t gone far (in a geographical sense) just the UK and Ireland - but I’ve seen beautiful views, wild places, and learned you’re perfectly fine on your own, even when it’s raining sideways 😍
This channel documents my life. An ordinary life in extraordinary places ✨
It’s a classic tale : of a ex Professional Dancer with no DIY skills.. who builds her dream home on wheels, leaves her old life behind, & now wanders about the countryside in her wellies
And because this is the modern world… she films it 😅🤣

Hellooo ❤️
Just popping on to say there will be a new video before the end of the month 😊… so keep a look out for the next few days over the weekend ☺️☺️
Things have been a little slower behind the scenes lately while I’ve been juggling a lottt of life/admin/expensive fuel lol / the course I was telling you about / editing ect ect , but I’m finally getting there and I’ve got a video ! And should be back on track for monthly uploads from here on out for the rest of the year ! 🙌
Thank you for being patient with me - genuinely. I know I disappear sometimes when life gets messy behind the scenes, but I’m still here 😂🩷🩷
Very excited to share what I’ve been up to soon 👀

Hey everyone 💛
Just wanted to check in - I know I usually post a video every month, and I missed April, so thank you for being so patient with me. I really appreciate it.
Things have been a bit slower lately (fuel prices have been wild, so travel hasn’t been as easy), and I was also figuring out what to film next… but I’ve actually landed on something I think you’re really going to enjoy.
The next video (coming in May!) is going to be a proper “day in the life” - just real, simple everyday stuff like chores, washing clothes, and what life actually looks like behind the scenes. I know a lot of you love those kinds of videos, so I’m really excited to share it with you.
I also started a course recently, and it’s been a lot more full-on than I expected - in a good way! I’m really glad I’m doing it, but it has meant I haven’t been editing as much as I normally would.
Just wanted to say I’m still here, and I’ve got something nice coming your way soon. Thank you again for sticking with me - it genuinely means a lot.
Sending love from me and Winnie 🐾 see you very soon!

New Video coming ☺️💕 Thursday 26th 6.00pm GMT
Hello my lovely’s !
Sooo Febs video is nearly ready to share with you ☺️🙌
Not sure if any of you know these two crackers in the picture with me and win,
But this video is about the 3 of us trying to navigate living in my van !
It is a bit cramped
Anddd the crazy part is .. I had only just met them - so essentially strangers 😅🤣
I won’t spoil the ending
But I’m looking forward to sharing it with you .
It’s been baltic here in the uk these past few months !
And Scotland has seen some heavy snow! (Which is where this video takes place ) does mean the scenery was on point though 😍👌 just you wait until you see Scotland in the snow!! it is something else 😍🤩
But as always, thank you so much for being here ☺️🙌
And for being so supportive and watching these snippets of my life in the bus with Winnie 💕
Sending you lots of love xx

Hello my lovelies !
Big thankyou if you have already watched my newest video for January 2026
It’s my last vid of the Ireland series! Sad to of left that beautiful green island !
And just sharing what I got up to this weekend -
Not sure how many of you know my ‘before vanlife’ story but I was a pro dancer , and this weekend an old boss of mine asked if I could fill in for one of her models and do a bridal catwalk show in Dublin
(It’s a show I used to do all the time) anyways I was over the moon she asked (I’ve really missed being on stage !) and I’ve got some very pretty pictures of basically dressing up like a princess lol soooo I’m guna share them with you !!
Also if you wanted to hear more about my life before vanlife I did make a Q&A video last year and talked about it in there (if you haven’t seen it already !)
The link is here :
Vanlife Q&A: Money, Regrets, Dating + What It’s Really Like 👀
https://youtu.be/7XSuFvnUJUY
And here is the link to my newest video if you missed it
I Drove Across Ireland in WINTER ...Alone. ⛈🥶
https://youtu.be/gWdgOG0NStY
Lots of love ! And thankYOU for being here !!

NEW VIDEO : live TODAY at 7pm in the uk
(That’s Basically in like half an hour! Ahah)
Here’s a little sneak peek at the thumbnail I have been working on!
So a little behind the scenes information:
All my video editing is done on premier pro,
And then the little pictures I draw I use Photoshop
And images like this, I edit it on Photoshop
I don’t think it’s news to you that I actually love editing, photos and videos! I find it a creative outlet and I really love that you enjoy my editing too ☺️🙌
Thank you for being here and hopefully you’ll enjoy the next video!
My last Irish video of my little 3 video series 🥰

🎄 Hello lovelies, Josie here (with Winnie supervising, naturally 🐶)…
I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for choosing to watch my videos this year ! (And all the years prior !!) Honestly, the fact that you click, watch, and sometimes even like, comment, and share … well, it genuinely blows me away. And if you watch them all the way through… wow. You really are the best!
It’s been really lovely over Christmas to be at home with my mum and just the three of us all cosy. There’s something really special about this time of year … lights twinkling, mince pies in abundance, and Winnie attempting to steal every present she can get her paws on. Being at home has made me feel extra grateful for all of you and for this little community we’ve built together. Thankyou for being here in this little corner of the internet
Before I disappear under a blanket with a cup of tea (and possibly a mince pie or three), a quick heads-up: my new video goes live tomorrow at 5 PM GMT. That’s 12 PM Eastern, 9 AM Pacific, 6 PM Central Europe, and 2 AM the next day in Sydney. It’s one of those videos where I try to be coherent… but, well, it’s me, so don’t expect miracles.
Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with good food, cosy socks, plenty of laughs, and slightly fewer disasters than mine tend to involve. Winnie sends you all sloppy kisses and tail wags 🐾.
Josie & Winnie (and my mum ☺️) 🩷
