BUDDYMOON DAY 774/1000 (VLOG 177)
In this video we attempt to cross ove from Englad to France. However, before we cross over, we wanted to have an MOT done so that we do not need to worry about expired MOT's while we are abroad. Unfortunately, this lead to a lot more issues than we thought.
After days of trying to pass the MOT, we were finally able to take a ferry in order to cross from England into France. But before getting on the ferry, we wanted to explore the white cliffs of Dover. Once arriving in France, we also wanted to check out Dunkirk.

Try and go to a boulangerie for a croissant. They’re 200% better than supermarkets and if you have a cake from one nowhere else will taste as nice. We lived in France for 9 years and miss it every day (we have our croissants dipped in coffee too 😂).

You didn't show that in the video, maybe you know already, but you need to change to those "extra" light bulbs in your EU kit. They are for changing the direction of the beam. If you drive with UK ones, other drivers will think you're driving with full/high beam on, as you'll blind them, and they will flash you with theirs to let you know. - I know because I made the mistake of coming from France to UK without changing the direction of the beam. You can also get stickers for this to put on your headlights. Some cars also has a wee switch in the back of the headlights to change the direction. And I looooove your videos! We want to be there with you 🥹😍 Safe travels 🫶🏼

I am glad that you took time to visit Dunkerque....It was the most amazing rescue of WW2 - Without it, even South Africa was not safe from domination by the N a zis. Of course many of the soldiers were like yourselves from SA, helping the allied forces. You need to be proud of them.

Congratulations on making it to the white cliffs and to France. 🇫🇷 I was wary of black pudding for a long time but now I'm a fan. When you look at it you think it'll be bitter because its dark but in reality it tastes quite sweet to me. There is an Irish version that is white because it contains fat rather than blood, so it's Daniel friendly.

@thebuddymoon 2 ай бұрын

When we visit Ireland we will have to try the Irish version to see if Danny likes it🤣

Hi guys,loving your vids,from an expat in Manchester.Just a question,are you planning a 3 month eu trip in the Schengen zone or have you applied for a working visa?

@thebuddymoon 2 ай бұрын

Danny has a EU passport but I don't. But because we are married I've managed to get a long visa. So we will be in the Schengen areas for a month and a half, move to non Schengen for another month and a half, and then back in Schengen areas for another month and a half and so on. That way we are in the Schengen area for the required 90 days in a 180 day period🙂

Hey buddy Russia is in Europe. At least the most populous side of Russia is. And it’s pretty big. The Asian side of Russia is larger in size but the lesser populated side. You also probably won’t be able to travel to Belarus which is in Europe fully. Are you going to Ukraine? Because Ukraine is clearly in Europe. Kazakhstan is in Central Asia and there is absolutely no dispute about that. Don’t you guys also have a 90 day cap on your Schengen visa? The moment you drive into France, that clock is ticking.

@thebuddymoon 2 ай бұрын

To keep it simple we will go according to the UN's list🙂and will keep an eye out on news and travel updates to see if its possible to travel to the Ukraine in future - for now there are a lot of countries to get through. As for the visa - Danny has a EU passport. But because we are married I've managed to get a long visa. So we will be in the Schengen areas for a month and a half, move to non Schengen for another month and a half, and then back in Schengen areas for another month and a half and so on.

@@thebuddymoon Ukraine is dodgy especially if you are driving into it. Belarus, at this juncture, is a clear no at least for me. I have been to both countries at better times and Ukraine might still be ok if you fly into Kyiv or Lviv but Belarus is a NO. I don’t know how long is your van life thing in Europe for but it does get very cold in Eastern Europe during winter and Eastern Europe lacks the winterization facilities unlike the EU/EEA area. Hopefully your van can last without problems. Ford Transits don’t have a good reputation for reliability and it’s used and you already had a strike with flunking the MOT 😀 Hopefully you have minimal problems. You rigged a lot of electrical and plumbing stuff in there and all thise are potential issues waiting to happen along with mechanical issues on a old van .😀😀
