howdy partners howdy this is a bit of a unique vlog a warning disclaimer here this is gonna be
a crazy vlog basically what we've decided to do is pack up a load of stuff into the car buy a
mattress for the car and go on a spontaneous road trip down from new york to florida yeah we haven't
booked any hotels no airbnbs nothing like that and i think the plan is we're gonna basically check
out a load of different places the places we're staying at for one night or a couple of nights
we will stay in the manchester uncover yeah if we really like an area and we want to stay for longer
we'll just book an airbnb or a hotel or something moral a story is going to be a really spontaneous
fun random road trip and we want to bring you guys along with us so our first stop is 12 and a half
hours away it's charleston in south carolina it is currently 9pm monica's taking the first shift
of driving and i'm gonna try and have a nap let's go let's go so it is 10 02 p.m right now um we've
just spent like an hour and a half at monica's parents house saying goodbye and having a good old
kind of family time like kind of stuff we're fully stocked up everything in the car and we're ready
to go right here we go so 12 and a half hours straight drive to charleston but we're gonna have
to charge i would say four times so it's looking like it's gonna be about 16 17 hour journey
down there let's see what happens approaching new york city right now
my gorgeous girl so it is 2 14 in the morning i've probably managed to get i would say like an hour
maybe an hour and a half of sleep i think longer because you were every time i was looking like
mouth open sleeping like not like you were trying to sleep so i think wow so you're like so you're
like you know what i could tell you're asleep because you look so ugly no no no no you know
like when you're in there yeah i know it's pretty much times like swap over so i thought this is a
really good opportunity to break out the mattress and try it out for the first time all right we
haven't bothered with the sheets and all that kind of stuff because we're only here for a couple of
hours but what do you think i love it the car's in camp mode which you can see up there i'm ready
to hop in and head to bed you can't really see mum but she's slightly up next to me right now

in where are we north carolina right now monica's putting soap on her face we have been going
for 15 hours almost which is crazy isn't it honey yeah considering we thought it would be a 12
and a half hour drive you know you're getting close when you're passing south of the border
south of the border in south carolina dirty little secret dirty little secret okay we are
in charleston south carolina right now that is our manager david in front so david if you're watching
this what up dude hi david we're gonna head back to davis house in savannah one of the main reasons
we came down to savannah to kind of probably catch up with david in person um first we haven't seen
him in like six months secondly um we are planning so many cool things for you guys so many exciting
things that we can't say yet but involving merch our wedding drinks we're gonna do some exploring
of savannah tomorrow and it's the first real location on a list of places we want to check out
and potentially live in the future and even though i only got approximately 20 minutes of sleep oh my
gosh she keeps saying i got an hour sleeping he literally honey i didn't say i got an hour i said
20 minutes no before you said an hour okay okay i got an hour and a quarter okay an hour and twenty
left a very long time today you know how i know that how because you wake up i know when
you're sleeping because you wake up and you try to pretend that you weren't sleeping no
you do you'll wake up and you'll be like oh that's a cool billboard over there
like i know you didn't see that i don't even recognize i do that i guess it's like sleepy
summer does that every time you wake up we will catch up with you guys tomorrow we're
going to hopefully get a proper sleep tonight and we'll work out refresh and we can show you guys
around savannah with us how does that sound good new day okay so the next day we're at a proper
southern restaurant with david david and savannah we've got fried chicken this is
look at these yams and for us brits this is marshmallow sauce crazy is that so i just
tried my first candied yam with marshmallow sauce and it was amazing what do you think
so we're done in savannah now it was really fun and uh we've actually found a house that we love
but we're outside this shop now this little kind of british restaurant thing that i've
wanted to try for a while i don't think we're getting out yeah i don't know if we're actually
going to try on it we're literally parked outside here oh my gosh but i don't know if it's worth it
with this rain should we just go i think we do it we're gonna do it yep we braved the rain and we
made it look it's a cornish pot so we've got a cornish pasty we've got a slice of chocolate silk
and some toffee poppers i have these in the ears are you happy i'm very happy hopefully
this tastes decent though because the best cornish pasties are in cornwall and that's three and a
half thousand miles away so we'll see we'll see so we didn't really show much but monica and i just
looked around like three houses yeah we really love savannah what do you think about savannah
no no david the guy we're hanging out with is our manager and we've worked with david
for like three years now and he's amazing he's the most awesome guy we absolutely love it so
nasty it was so hot today i was so much so bad i was literally like you would have thought like
just like while we're walking i'll naturally put my hand on her back i'm like ooh
oh and then monica walks behind me at one point she get and she looks at me and she goes
ah i was like what she goes you got spots on your back
i was like what she was like i started laughing lots of water
you could play tic-tac-toe oh my god so savannah georgia is a big potential this trip is basically
to try and figure out where we want to live when we can live together in america because the visa
is approaching day by day you know every single day we get closer to my visa being approved to
build so then we can get married and then we can finally live together we're heading down to
augustine in florida now i love the idea of son of austin because it's the oldest town
um in the whole of the united states so it's got so much history and it feels very european
so i feel like i feel a lot less homesick there so we want to check that out
and then head down to palm coast you want to go down to boca raton
we're just going to do a little road trip and see exactly where we want to live
so we have arrived since augustine and we're going to see our room how do we put the light on though
we've got fisheye lens on this so it doesn't look as big as it is but it's it's pretty big
that's why we're going to be exploring tomorrow this is augustine in florida

to get some fresh air and remind yourself of who you are and who you want to be that's deep
okay i'm outside in the humidity and i'm not enjoying it i got my fortune for aries was
pay less attention to fortunes and like success and pay more attention to happiness

i cannot believe she slept with the professor i know a doctor crazy she's literally sleeping
we've been saying that nonstop every time we pass a student we go oh my gosh and she slept with the
professor and no one is even passing the eyelid as if it's like a normal thing anyway i think we
parked down here yeah there we are we made it to palm coast yes we did are we just cruising just
seeing what there is are we just cruising or we're just cruising we just cruise are we just cruising
of course monitor gets to say hi to a dog
i can't get over how beautiful as places that was such a beautiful beach experience
that was the best beach experience i've had in ages so i was just about to dig into my royal
burger and monica's like shuffling around what's up what's what's going on here honey do you have
stand up in your bits and pieces i don't like the beach okay oh honey he's so gross what so

and we're back again looking at new houses yes for like the 80th time we're at another development
are you guys enjoying this vlog series if you're not then though but i'm so sorry but it's like
we're recording the journey of you know when we're gonna find our dream place you guys don't
like at least we have the footage in for years from now this is the house we're looking at now
this is gorgeous this is lovely the only thing we're really having trouble with right now is
the fact that i love this area i love a small town feel like i love like single lane roads
and small independent shops and stuff monica is obviously a new yorker big city girl i like
busier areas so i like that there's like a target over there there's a walmart over there there's
like tj maxx like i like being around a lot of things so that's why we need to compromise because
i don't want this like i like small town feel but you like small towns small town
that's the conversation we're having right now trying to basically find
the right middle ground where it's kind of it feels small enough for me but big enough
for monica yeah i don't feel like we've really found that yet not yet
monica's crying in the uh cheering song
