After completing the NC500 in our Quirky-campers hired camper van we decided that van-life was for us. We loved it, so we purchased our own van to convert into an all singing all dancing camper of our dreams!

Join us as we convert our Peugeot Boxer 2019 L3H2, with zero experience, into our dream camper-van from scratch... is it going to make our dreams come true or is it going to be the project of our nightmares?

In this episode take our sub roof back down with insulation and add new stud-work. This is to allow us to fix the roof firmly and allow us to hang overhead cabinets.

Okay, three things about Paolo Montes that are VERY BRAZILIAN 🇧🇷

1- He knows english but only speaks portuguese: Our language is very rich in metaphors and sometimes expressing our feelings in english is not enough, ex: "Get the horse out of the rain", means "stop doing that"

Our list of swear words is more extensive too and also includes a lot of metaphors 😚 so for him and many others in this country it is uncomfortable to change

2- Good luck kiss: When Apollo goes to look for his children, Paolo gives him a good luck kiss on the cheek

Brazilians in general are very affectionate, especially those who live in the north of the country. Kisses and hugs are not just reserved for close friends but also the group you belong to

Paolo probably felt that he and Apollo were in the same group and began to be affectionately protective of him

3- Brazilian flags as a sign of luck 🇧🇷

This is very real especially when you are betting on something. Many here believe that the flag brings good things because it represents the country's riches: green from the Amazon, yellow from abundance, blue from the clear sky and waters, and white from peace

The flag has become unpopular recently because of right-wing parties wanting to take it as a symbol, but there are still many brazilians who use their flags as a symbol of luck and happiness 🇧🇷💕

This is just a headcanon but I feel Professor Turo/Arven could be French/Kalosian, because when you last see Turo he says adieu and when you visit Arven's dorm in the post game he calls it Chez Arven. Geographically France borders Spain as well so it probably works similarly in game

if you're a northeast liberal who has ever said "we should let texas secede, we're better off without them" I am gently telling you that liberals in deep red southern states are your allies and you should be helping them, not abandoning them. more texans voted democrat in 2020 than the entire populations of over half the states in the union, including most of the states in the northeast. there are more democrats in texas than there are people in oregon. or south carolina. or oklahoma. or nevada. stop writing them off to preserve your elitist narrative of the south being full of backwards racist hicks. to make yourself feel better knowing at least those aren't your people. over 5.2 million in texas alone, not including any of the 10 million that didn't vote in 2020. anti-trans laws in north carolina and alabama shouldn't make you feel better about your decision to live in connecticut, they should push you to action to help ensure that our peers in the south get the same rights and respect as in the rest of the country. if you think the US would be better without texas, or louisiana, or florida, you're part of the problem and I think the US might actually be better without you

Love it when I have headcanons that are just based on vibes and nothing in the text at all so I get too embarrassed to share them.

In this episode we are removing any internal rust spots prior to covering them with internal walls/floor and ceiling etc. Next we start on sound deadening and insulating our van for those cold summer days in England.

[Image: a selfie of the blogger in a winter coat and colorful scarf, standing at the end of Elfreth's Alley in Philadelphia, a very narrow cobblestone road with historical brick rowhouses on either side. /end ID]

walked down 'our nation's oldest residential street.' one on the end is for sale, and I don't have the millions of dollars it probably costs and i probably wouldn't enjoy living in a tourist attraction, but i started dreaming anyway lol

I gave away 30 friendship bracelets to little girls who played hockey locally and traded some with a few women that were finishing up college here. Also the girls sitting next to me grew up playing with some of the Boston players so it was cool talking to them :)
