I’m a traveller & people always ask how to join our lifestyle – fake flowers, Crown Derby and chandeliers are essential
A TRAVELLER woman has revealed how to make your house match their style.
Mum-of-one Suzy took to social media dishing out the secret ingredients to transform your home to make it more ‘traveller’ in a satirical video.
Suzy responded to a comment left for her under a video which read: “So hear me out, I know I can’t be a gypsy but could I be a traveller I want to opt out of this life.”
She quickly responded in a video claiming she knew how to make it look like your part of her community.
Of course, Traveller and gypsies are an ethnicity, so it’s not something you can just ‘join’ but Suzy gave some pointers on how to get the style.
She said the first step was to have a gorgeous tea set on display in the kitchen that is framed with fake flowers to give it some extra glam.
And you shouldn’t stop there, Suzy revealed fake flowers were essential to the look.
“Flowers everywhere. And I mean everywhere,” she said as she showed the multiple bouquets of fake flowers she had around the house.
Italian style furniture was also a must along with fake crystal chandeliers form B&Q said Suzy.
“”Flowers everywhere. And I mean everywhere.”
Make sure you have at least one rosary, and grab yourself some dollies,” added Suzy.
To make your home smell as fresh and clean as theirs, Suzy recommends Spanish cleaning products and Dubai air fresheners.
Last but not least Suzy recommended grabbing some fur coats and Louboutin heels to look the part when you’re out and about.
The clip posted to Suzy’s TikTok account @cuzinsuzyofficial1 was a hit with her fans receiving 33k views and 1,600 likes.
People were quick to take to the comments in hysterics by Suzy’s ‘rules’.
One person wrote: “You’re so funny.”
Another commented: “You totally crack me up.”
“You always make me smile. Thank you,” penned a third.
Traditions in the gypsy/traveller communities
Nomadic lifestyle: Traditionally, many travellers maintain a nomadic lifestyle, living in caravans and moving frequently. This mobility is a core aspect of their identity, reflecting a deep connection to freedom and independence.
Strong family bonds: Family is central to traveller culture. Extended families often live and travel together, providing a strong support network. Marriages and social events are significant community affairs, reinforcing familial ties.
Distinct Language: Many travellers speak Shelta, also known as Cant or Gammon, a distinct language that mixes elements of Irish, English, and other languages. This language serves as a cultural marker and a means of private communication within the community.
Religious practices: The traveller community often follows Roman Catholicism, with religious festivals and milestones like baptisms, communions, and weddings being particularly significant. However, individual beliefs and practices can vary widely.
Unique celebrations: Events such as horse fairs and traditional weddings are major social gatherings for travellers. These occasions are marked by elaborate preparations, vibrant attire, and communal participation.

“You are so funny,” claimed a fifth.
