Extreme adventurer, zoologist, underwater expert and stuntman, Andy uses his motorhome and caravans to fuel his adrenaline-heavy adventures and is full of tales of adventures from sea, sky and land. Andy said:

“I love nothing more than exploring with my wife and kids in our motorhome and for years this is how we have holidayed. “We were lucky enough to drive our motorhome and two caravans from the UK to the Sahara desert as part of a campaign, taking us across Portugal and Spain and through Morocco. "Here we free dived, SUP, climbed and trekked in some of the least visited areas on Earth and I look forward sharing my story and meeting visitors at the Great Holiday Home Show in September!"
The Roaming Radfords started their YouTube travel channel just before the pandemic hit and all travel stopped but as the world reopened, they got back out on the road and have taken 30,000 subscribers as far as Albania, Florida and Morocco. Steve Radford said:
"We have travelled extensively by motorhome since 2007, through the UK, Europe, US and more recently North Africa. "We set off on each trip with only a rough destination in mind, allowing the roads we take and the places we stop to evolve as we meet new friends along the way. "It’s been a non-stop adventure for us as a family and we can’t wait to share our adventures and top tips for travelling with visitors to the Great Holiday Home Show.”
