NC500 Disaster | Highlands Hospital Trip | Vanlife UK

In our first North Coast 500 vlog, things didn't go to plan, and ended up with a trip to the hospital. We started the great Scottish road trip nicknamed the NC500 at Chanonry point as we looked for dolphins before going to see leaping Salmon at Rogie Falls. This Scotland travel vlog was filled with loads of Scottish wildlife as we saw Seals at nearly every point on the trip. After a stopover in Helmsdale beach (a great vanlife UK spot), we finished off the East coast of the Scottish Highlands at Whaligoe steps and Castle Sinclair Girnigoe, both beautiful in their own right.

Welcome to the official Travel Beans KZfaq channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

Plastic over newly-purchased items is horrible! The gory accident that happened to you Emma, has also happened to me; cannot understand why packaging is so ridiculous!! Happy that a plaster was all that was needed! Loved all the scenery... the salmon: magical... the dolphins, seals, birds... all just beautiful; as-is the autumn (my favourite time of year). :)

I love how Alex totally rips Emma and how she laughs It off! That's what a sense of humour is about, not getting all bent out of shape about a ripping! "Imagine if it happened to someone who I really cared about!"🤣

I'm probably too late for this now but for future reference, in case you are unaware, Avon - Skin So Soft works miracles at keeping the midges away. Apparently, the Arny use for their troops it, as it's that good. I've recently come back from a trip & didn't have one bite & I usually get eaten alive with them. It's excellent & can be purchased from Amazon. Another fantastic vlog. Thank you both!

This is so much a motivation to do a trip like that myself! I just will skip the knife incident as I usually fall over unconscious when I cut even a tiny scratch in my fingers ;-) Yes I am clumsy too! You , Emma, took it like a champion (not a champignon ;-) ) and kept smiling and making fun! I think the dolphin was a porpoise but who is nit-picking :-) Wonderful video!

Oh, I would so love to see salmon jumping the river like you got to, that was really cool. Midges, oh my, can't take them on my face, I wear a netted hood. Glad you didn't do a lot of damage to your thumb. I've done some trauma to a few of my digits and thankfully I've never cut one off. I watched the golf tournament at St. Andrews last week so I was thinking of you two wandering around Scotland. Loved the views and wildlife you showed us. Keep it coming, you two are awesome!

I was at Rogie falls just a few weeks ago! Saw my first-ever Salmon there as well, even though I live barely 10 miles from a well-known Salmon leap! Glad your thumb wasn't too bad...I nearly took the entire top of my big toe off once and that was agony!! You're doing the NC500 the right way around in my opinion - the east coast is beautiful but the west coast is just amazing and I think if you do the west before the east the east would be a bit anticlimatic (sorry east coast!). I missed the Whaligoe steps (internet signal cut out and we missed the sign as well!)

The best thing for keeping the midges away is Avon Skin So Soft dry oil. I know it sounds daft, but it works!

When I got my first camper a t25, it broke down. The AA man got it started and I was so excited i jumped in the van but stood up too early and split my head open. Suffice to say it was like that scene from Carrie. Fortunately I was bizarrely 10 mins away from a specialist head injury unit with no waiting time. Some super glue later we were back on the road. Still have the scar as a memento ;) We stuck to the West coast it's sooo beautiful.

Like the mosquito bit. In south Louisiana, we also have dive bombing little terrors. Some consider the mosquitoes our 2nd state bird. We don't only have them in the summer. We have a winter variety also. If you come to Southern US, buy some mosquito repellent with deer in it.
