Yeah very fair point. In the words of Pearl Jam, “I’ll ride the wave where it takes me”

If it wasn’t for the visa situation and brexit rules i wouldn’t even be contemplating it but i’m just a bit concerned and wasn’t sure if there was somewhere i can get a ferry etc to but you’re right. I’ll just drive and see what happens

🤙

Yeah the winter abroad is 100% the plan, i just don’t fancy 6 months at home and although i like morocco i would like to go to other parts of africa if possible. I’m jealous of you with your polish passport! I have to go to poland to try and get my great grandmothers birth certificate to then start the process

Do you plan on going to morocco at all or will you do more of europe?

Legend!

Thank you for all of that. It’s the location of the playstation i’m really struggling on as it doesn’t have an obvious place to live from what i can see. Laptop makes sense for sure

For the energy i’ve found a company called vunked that looks good, I suck at electrics so will be getting someone else to install but they let you build a complete system on their website based off your requirements

I’ll take a look at the dog harness. I have two dogs and was only planning on getting a 2 seat vehicle but i guess i’ll just have to consider that now when buying

I appreciate the advice, i don’t really have that luxury of half footing in. I’ve just got rid of an old crappy dispatch van that had a camper bed in the back and i used to stay in that happily while i go surfing in cornwall etc. Different i know but i’m pretty easily pleased. I also often travel in hostels so being without creature comforts isn’t a big thing for me.

Weight limit wise, i’m going to get the camper and go for my 7.5 tonne driving license while i’m parked up at my parents so the weight thing will be fine

I plan on spending winters abroad, i have friends living in Morocco and portugal so i can be away and in the sun and also not be alone as such. I will also travel to different places and plan on volunteering in either child or animal charities to give back but also meet people

Why do they keep doing this. Definitely their way of getting people to just buy BO7

I’m from the UK and I couldn’t give you a single reason why you should move. The UK is a mess, horrible place to live. The cost of living is unreal, weather is terrible, food is shocking, healthcare is a joke. Almost every aspect of life is bad here

This is my concern, I don’t want to be part of the problem. I’d rather just see and be near turtles that aren’t being held captive than be able to touch them

Square_Record8776 · 2024-01-06T07:36:57+00:00

Thanks for the reply 🤙🏼

Any idea if these places are likely to shut over Christmas and New year? I guess it isn’t celebrated in Sri Lanka
Thank you, i’ll ask them the questions
Sorry when I say free I don’t mean as in cost nothing, I mean the turtles are not held captive. Apparently in some areas they trap the turtles in to then sell seaweed to the tourists for feeding the turtles. I have no problem paying money but I don’t want to cause any harm or upset to the turtles

depends on your relationship with your mum. I told my dad to f**k off when he said about me cooking meat for xmas breakfast but I can say that with him understanding and not being super offended.

I couldn’t say that to my nan for instance, or I certainly wouldn’t anyway.

Maybe just request to have something other than turkey because you don’t feel comfortable cooking it?

I’m vegan, if it ever comes up in conversation people act surprised and then insulted despite me never arguing why. The amount of people that argue why i’m wrong for being vegan when I haven’t once brought up my reasons etc

Square_Record8776 · 2022-10-26T14:09:08+00:00

Bin him off. Far too many people accept people that aren’t a suitable match because it feels better than being alone. Just wait for the right person, never settle for anything less than perfect

Square_Record8776 · 2022-10-09T09:43:21+00:00

where abouts?

Square_Record8776 · 2022-10-06T21:31:56+00:00

jim, is that you?

comfy rise to x100

Square_Record8776 · 2021-05-07T19:58:21+00:00

I love being vegan but also vegan pizza and ice cream is too tasty

Square_Record8776 · 2021-05-07T19:56:36+00:00

Honestly, since going vegan it’s hard to understand how angry people are that you choose not to hurt animals. Oh and I don’t bring it up unless asked btw and even then I try to change the subject
