Travelling K - RV & Homestead
Новая Зеландия
Добавлен 4 апр 2012
I'm Travelling K. I started off living and travelling in a caravan around New Zealand on my own. I met a fella along the way. We are now off grid living and homesteading with a baby boy. Life has a funny way of changing on you.
My channel is about the RV experience AND homesteading. I share what RVing is like - the good and the bad, the tips I've learnt along the way, plus the sights I see. I also share what we're learning through our homesteading experience, from sorting out water and power, to starting an owner-builder home.

Will We PASS Building Inspection? 🧐
Просмотров 5 тыс.4 месяца назад
I carry on with the house insulation. I put in insulation in all the outside walls. Then spray foam around the windows. Once that was done, I book the building inspector ready to see if we pass! ……….. Thank you to my patrons who have helped make these videos possible: www.patreon.com/travellingk ………..

SLOOOW House Build - Will We Ever Move In?
Просмотров 5 тыс.5 месяцев назад
I do feel like this house build will never be finished. Hayden was aiming to finish the outside of the house before he started his event season. But seemed to slow right down and didn't finish the outside in time. This made me worry. We need to get the house signed off before he can start again in March. I desperately need to move into at least the living space before winter. I honestly can not...
Uneven & Unsafe! Caravan Suspension Woes
Просмотров 7 тыс.6 месяцев назад
We notice that the caravan is leaning down on one side. I take it to a caravan repair shop in Taupo where they say I'm very lucky I didn't get a burst tyre! They say the suspension is the issue and they'll need to take it off and sent away to be repaired. Afterwards, we stay at a campground nearby and have a summer holiday! ………..

Transforming a Paddock into a Bountiful Garden
Просмотров 3,6 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Two years ago this was just a paddock. I have slowly chipped away adding trees, but really got going this gardening season and I feel like its paid off! I've done a lot of black plastic on the ground to kill off the weeds. Then cardboard and top soil with compost to jump start the garden. It's a mix of food forest and vegetable garden. ………..

AlgoLaser Delta 22W Wood Engraver & Cutter - Easy to use!

Something slightly different! I was approached by AlgoLaser to make a video of their product. It looked to fun to say no to! I've never used a laser cutter or engraver before, but found it easy to learn. I've still got so many more products I want to make! The hardest will be train tracks for Reese... still learning how to do this one. Here's a link to their product website if you're curious (h...

What is the material you are using? I want Lightn weight curtains that keep sun out
Yea wrong spot to park..that's the main road..so there's going to be logging trucks..milk tankers..sorry u never got a good experience.. I know how it feels we lived on the only road from Te Kopuru to Pouto.. constant traffic day n night..TK is 10mins out of Dargaville
Thick carpet,thick curtains,make sure the windows and doors are shutting properly,cooking food,a skirt around the caravan,a little wood fire (safely installed),your cuddly partner,onesie,drinking hot chocolate lol
i think 4g wifi is great for a van, but look at one nz or spark. this is expensive for what it is.
You're amazing, this and literally raised a young man for this world, on your own. No person should have waited this long to have a proper warm and dry home..........your tolerance levels are out of this world. Please know, I love your channel and have watched all of your videos, you can do life Karen, your strong and so independent, Reese is a very lucky boy, to have someone fighting for your whānau.
What a top guy! Love his story of strength and kindness.
How much did it cost to build?
Amazing.
Very enjoyable watch. You must have got lucky not having many roadworks. My other half's brother and his wife have just become wardens on a caravan park over the in NZ. All the best to you
Looking good
Gave me some great ideas. Thank you.
No one needs to hear about your separation or even cares. Keep it to yourself.
pathetic. no need to inform the world
That sucks because the advantage goes overwhelmingly to men after your hit the age of 30. Tons of available women and no good men around that are not married after age 30... Before age 30, women have a huge advantage in relationships. Everybody wants them. I suggest you get yourself out there and start kissing some frogs in hopes to find that rare nice guy that over 30 and not married. Also, women almost always have it harder financially after a breakup. Men just are able to focus on work and move their lifestyle forward. Hope these stats don't upset you. You just need to get out there and work to make your life better.
Nice video
All the best as always to you and your beautiful son ❤ Pretty sure when you’re tired heart & spirit has had time to mend there are great adventures on the road ahead for Reese and Mummy 😍🙏🏻 I’m a long time follower Nana Nita from Indiana, USA
Who cares
Sad to hear.
Best wishes from the UK, Karen. I've been following your channel since your collaboration videos with Andrew Ditton, and was always impressed with the quality content you produced. I hope life gets better for you soon.
Lots of hugs. Be kind to yourself. Xxxx
Wow was not expecting that. Take time for yourself Karen, YT Content Creation is fun, don't get pressured into thumping out another video. You can let this channel sit for 6 months or a year, it doesn't matter. (change ur banner photo's) Reset Settle Breath Get ur YT Mojo back or not (don't have to post every week) Goodluck, sorry thats all I have to offer
You seem a very determined lady whilst living in my caravan during Covid lockdown I enjoyed your exploits in the uk an Europe so as an old fellow caravaner wish you all the best
So very sorry
We will miss you and Hayden , I hope you both can move on and maybe in the future we will see you on more caravaning adventures :)
You are doing such a great job! ❤
Thank you for sharing. That would have been a hard thing to do. I look forward to your house building videos.
All the best have enjoyed your videos, having only just got into caravanning so looking forward to seeing more.
HI. Just started watching your videos. I wish my wife could handle our caravan like you can. I notice that when you are backing in to a site you tend to reverse in from the left. I find it easier to go in from the right side with the drivers side mirror and right side of caravan much easier to line up with posts etc. From a fellow Kiwi in Cheviot NZ.
Thinking of you all. Absolutely one day at a time ❤
Dang gurl I’m going to call you up.
Bless your heart. Better to let it go than remain unhappy. Best of luck for the future. 🙏🏻
bravo
So sorry to hear about the break up Karen but we are glad you are able to stay on the land. Looking forward to future videos!
sadly it doesn't always work and at least you can get on for your son. a lot of creativity and adventure for you in the future with your own piece of heaven :) thinking of you as you heal and grow
Relationships, Life, decisions, journeys can get hectic but the joy is always there…. sometimes it just takes a minute. Hugs and aroha
So so sorry to hear this. Hayden is a good man and I wish him all the best, you deserve to be happy so I wish you well too...
That’s very brave of you. God bless!
Sorry to hear darling. That’s a shame.
I don’t care about your breakup, that’s your business! I’ll look forward to your sweet voice telling us about the move to finishing the house! I hope caravanning is in your future, nice quiet walks, finding babbling brooks! And many adventures with the little one!
I’m so sorry things didn’t work out together. Wishing you all the best from across the ditch in Australia. We’ll all keep watching your adventures and supporting your videos. Take care 🥰
I'm enjoying watching your old videos again ❤
Praying for restoration so you can raise your child together.
I am so sorry, I have been concerned about this for a long time. God bless and keep you.
As long as you three are healthy and happy(ish), that's all that is important. Fully respect Hayden’s wish to stay off RUclips and looking forward to seeing what your life brings, along with Reece. Very brave to share that with us all, and sending much love from the UK xx
So sorry to hear the sad news, please keep yourself well, lots of love from Big Dave Scotland
I'm so sorry to hear about this, big hug. You will get through this
Karen,could it be Karen is a Karen.
No. Karen has never been a Karen. Please comment with respect.
Sorry to hear your news....stay strong ..Ai know that’s easy to say...lots of support for you from subscribers ❤
It doesn't matter what the reasons are just ask yourself this are you a better person for hanging out with this guy regardless of how long it lasts if you are then that's all that matters and then you move on yeah he didn't kiss your ass and he didn't tell you you're beautiful and all that stuff well you know what I'm sure you had Many Adventures that were nice and they're just tired maybe you just tired of you maybe you're just tired of him and that's okay move on to a new adventure
I’m so sorry…..it must have been hard for you to bring this out into the open xx
