I’ve enjoyed reading this- especially the not killing each other bit! We’ve been to Greece for the summer for the last four years and I must admit , it was a worry that being together all the time might be difficult but the absolute opposite was true…….we’ve talked about so many things…even thinking up daft questions to ask each other like’ if you hadn’t done what you’ve done, what would you have liked to do?’ and neither of us got the expected answer!
Your site is really interesting ( especially as we have the same camera and same creative Zen MP3 player) I always like looking at other people’s hints and tips as we can all learn from other’s experience- so if you ever decide to go to Greece- I’m available for hints and tips ( as are margaret and barry williamson www.magbaztravels.com an amazing source of information)

Hi all, thanks for all the amazing info . I have been made redundant from my job of 13 years ! Last day in England is the 31st of August. I have got a 2006 VW T5 which i have converted to a camper .Its all finished and ready to go.Been hard work but worth it. Had some amazing weekends in England so far, making sure everything works.Just cant wait to get out of here now. I think its about 9 weeks to go. Booked a ferry to FRANCE. Plan on going to Switzerland, Italy Spain ,Portugal then back. Unless i find my dream job that is………
I wanted to send you photos from our kayaking weekend, do you have an email address I can send them to?
Nice meeting you both and good luck with your adventures!
Thanks for all the wonderful information. We have started our touring (6 weeks so far) and hope to be on the road for as long as possible, sold our house and a lot of our possessions! One major concern was internet access whilst traveling and your advice was invaluable. Happy travels guys! 🙂
Hi Dave. As mentioned via email, the ZIP file doesn’t have a password – it must have corrupted on download. Thanks for letting me know redownloading it worked – hope it is useful to you!

You probably don’t remember this, but we were in touch with you briefly last year after seeing your blog. We found your site quite inspiring and it helped us to do a similar thing.
Well we’re now into week 12 of our two years on the roads of Europe. We sold up much faster than expected and hit the road back in February. We’ve just spent several weeks in Portugal and – like yourselves – absolutely loved it.
If you’re interested you can see our blog at motorhomo.blogspot.com. Sadly, we don’t have a lot of technical knowhow, so we’re using Blogger and a lot of Google maps to keep in touch with people and let them know what we’re up to.
Anyway – just wanted to say hello and wish you all the best. We’ll keep an eye on your adventures with interest.
Thanks guys! Lovely comments and glad it has been of use. There will soon be a lot more interesting information appearing as we push the van a little more!
just to add my thanks to you both,i have used your site as my bible,never mh before,so completely green,and now we have done 400 nights away,wildcamping most of them,but followed your advice in most things,from what to carry to how to get internet access,keep up the good work, thanks from a very grateful mher.

Well – we’re back. Public transport made it challenging as the Jubilee line was closed so we had to use the DLR and then a boat from West India Quays. Wasn’t too bad….
The show was dissapointily empty – probably, at best, 1/3 full. We were given different tickets so were moved to a floor seat near the front which were apparently more expensive tickets. The amount of empty seats, and empty sections, and indeed the entire closed upper levels meant the atmosphere wasn’t as hot as it could have been.
The show started in style and the orchestra and music were good and the visuals were quite good – telling the Star Wards story from a slightly different perspective. The penultimate piece was the piece of music we had at our wedding which was nice.
Overall, our thoughts were echoed by comments we heard from others, in that the show was good but not “stunningly great”. My personal feeling is that the O2 venue is far too big for the acoustics to work well as the orchestra sounded great but you couldn’t really feel the music. Also the film-clip and special effects were fairly 2-dimensional whereas they had opportunity to use the space for 3D effects.
So slightly dissapointing – 7/10 – perhaps smaller venues would be better…
Hi there , enjoyed reading your blogs which found by chance after looking through MHF for tips on prague etc, we have been ” touring europe ” since 2007, have spent many weeks in Holland / France / Portugal / Belgium and Germany . Love following the rivers eg the Rhine / Moselle / Elbe / DanubeWe plan to go off agin in april via Holland through Germany ( redoing Harz mountains ) onto Czech then back through Bavaria homewards . We take our elderly Lab ( 15yr ) she enjoys paddling in all the rivers / lakes / sea we find . Am busy planning a circular drive in Czech , do they have equivalent Aires / Stellplatz there. in portugal we stay on the Barragems ( reservoirs ) which usually have lovely scenic views . Happy travelling , are pathe may cross one day eh .We currently have a Hymer hope to upgrade to a Carthargo ( 2nd hand – cannot afford new one at 85K !!! )
Hi
Just wanted to say thanks for the web site. Packed full of very useful information. It’s good to get some practical advise from people who have been there and done it
Hi Ryan – thought I’d sign your guestbook as a thankyou for your IT help at my offices – very professional and excellent value for money. Many thanks and best wishes with the travelling
Admin reply: Cheers Christain!
However you’re spoiling the illusion that life is one long holiday! In truth though, we both actually like work when we can fit it in, and enjoy helping people out.
See you soon and thanks for a fair few tanks of diesel
Hi u2 nice to pick up your blog we met at Salin Giraud when we talked about piemanson beach. Oh the weather!!!!!

Just had a quick look at your blog following the publication of its address in MMM this month. Congratulations, taking the trouble to record your adventures will remind you of them for the rest of your lives.
Your journeys have a marked similarity to what we have been doing in our Murvi Morello over the last three years. The main difference being that we are probably forty years older than you are! If you want to see our blog type Mobile Geriatrics into Google
Thanks for sharing this with us. Anne and I are the couple you met last Friday at the NEC when we ordered a new (stealth) Cavarno in dark grey. Roll on next Season.
Hi Ryan and Mel-just read your post following our email and am signing your guest book-hope it works OK. We could not wait for our new van to arrive so in the meantime stumbled across a 52 plate Murvi Mallard on a Fiat so we have really got into motorvanning now1
We went to Torquay over the weekend to see Joe Brown-what a show!
Look forward to reading your travel news.

Hi Ryan and Mel. I have enjoyed reading your blog and it was very helpful in planning a big trip to Europe in April/May/June 09. I have a blog which might be of some interest to you as regards France. It is not a “public” blog but if you reply to me by e-mail I will send you the link.
Good luck on your travels and thank you for your efforts.
Laurence (Hymer VAN 522 2006)
What a great website. We share a lot in common. When I retired three years ago we bought a long wheel base VW camper with a Bibo’s Nexa conversion. We go away for 5-6 weeks every spring and autumn. Our trips have included Spain/Portgal, Switzerland/Croatia and we are about to go to Greece, taking the overnight ferry from Ancona, Italy to Greece. I particularly found the bit about using internet hotspots interesting as I have just bought an Acer netbook and this will be our first trip with internet access. I was surprised that your bit on campsites does not refer to France Passion. For 28 euros you get a book detailing hundreds of overnight stops at farms, vineyards etc where you can stay overnight for free. No facilities but a chance to meet the natives! Good luck in your travels.
Hello Mel and Ryan!
Greetings from Como to Como from your camper-neightbours!
We are standing here in front of you and we can see what you are eating today!!
Let the sun shine also the next days, have a nice trip – see you anywhere in Europe again!
Greetings
Manuela und Matthias
Admin reply: hi!
Como was lovely wasn’t it?
Dinner was nice – glad you didn’t see what we had for desert
Safe travels!
