This is it! The final leg of our Wild Atlantic Way adventure is finally uploaded to YT!

After 1,600 miles of twisty-winding roads, Atlantic storms, tiny villages, even tinier tracks, mountain passes, cable cars, phenomenal beaches, water worries, unforgettable campspots, and more cucumber sandwiches than anyone should reasonably eat… we finally reached Malin Head, the most Northerly point of Ireland. It was a truly wild and windy day, which was kind of a perfect ending to this wild adventure.

This last stretch took us from the quiet beauty of Doohooma, to the austere and lonely Malin Head lighthouse, to be literally swept off our feet by the gales. Hedwig, our faithful drone played his part, so there’s lots of aerial footage in this episode too.

If you’ve followed us this far, thank you as always from the bottom of our hearts for traveling with us. If you’re new to the channel, a big welcome and we hope you will subscribe to stay with us. The adventures are just beginning. Keep Trundling ❤️🐌❤️

It was a very short, but incredibly successful jaunt home this time. It’s always so good to be back, and we settle back in very quickly. We’re sad to be leaving so soon, but we’re also looking forward to seeing family and great friends again too. We will be back soon, and when we do, it will be a whole new chapter. We can’t wait. Slán go fóill Ireland ❤️🇮🇪🏡

We called in at the Trundle Den to, a) have another look around before heading to the UK for some pet-sitting commitments, and b) to do some more measuring up for planning… and met our local barn cat 🐈‍⬛.

She’s a beauty, and a real character, so now we need a name. Suggestions please… Anyone that knows us knows that the visits may become a regular thing 😻

The penultimate episode of our Wild Atlantic Way series is now (finally) uploaded to YT. This stretch of the Wild Atlantic Way was particularly exciting for us.

We left Westport and headed north to Achill Island, a place very close to our hearts after spending 7 weeks camping there and walking the Great Western Greenway to train for our 700km Island Walk in Prince Edward Island. Going back there always feels special, like coming home.

From there we pushed on to Doohooma, which we’d never heard of, and suspect you haven’t either. We were so not ready for it. The wild Atlantic coastline and empty beaches were genuinely breathtaking. So much so that we spent and extra day parked on the beach and saw no one. It was everything VanLife should be.

The weather was fabulous so Hedwig was out and about, which means lots of drone footage to enjoy. So hop aboard and come along with us through some of the most fabulous scenery that magical Mayo has to offer.

No matter where we go, we gravitate to the animals in the vicinity 🐕🫏❤️ We’ve got a few days break after our house-hunting was much more successful and faster than anticipated. Time to catch up on some reading, knitting, and of course… getting to know the locals ❤️

Exciting news… we’re moving! 🐌🏡🇮🇪

We’re swapping nomadic life for a small 19th century farmhouse in rural Kerry. It still feels a bit surreal to be saying that out loud.

Before anyone worries, the Trundling is not stopping. Long walks, Caminos, road trips with Vandalf, slow travel… that’s who we are, and that part stays exactly the same.

What IS changing is that after nearly three years of being on the move, we’ll have a proper base between adventures. Somewhere to return to. A Trundler Den… and that opens the door to a new layer of life for us.

We’re going to be trying our hand at some traditional skills: growing veg, having a go at sourdough, fermenting drinks. Maybe even butter or cheese… we’ll see how brave we feel.

As always, we start from ground zero. We are complete beginners. Not gardeners, not homesteaders, not DIYers, so expect a few disasters along the way 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♀️😂

The move is still over a month away, so we’ll share more as it all unfolds. For now, just know this: Same Chonky Trundlers. New layer incoming 🌳🏡🧑🏼‍🌾👩🏼‍🌾🌳🇮🇪❤️

Last leg of the journey. A smooth, but long journey. Tot Ziens Schipol. Next stop Cork! 🛫

Goodbye Denmark ❤️🇩🇰 It’s been a truly wonderful two weeks, but it’s time to trundle 🐌. As always, we’re in the airport early, so time to chill, and settle in for a long travel day. We’ve had time to relax with family, catch up with a few good friends, and generally enjoy Denmark in arguably its most fabulous season. Farvel, og tusind tak… 👋🏼❤️🇩🇰
