RV Roadtrip – A Few Months of Slow Travel in France and Spain

After a couple of months in the States we were ready to get back to Peppa and RV life in Europe. We hadn’t really planned anything out but were planning on taking things slow and just enjoying France and Spain. We flew into Paris and stayed near the Latin Quarter which is a part of […]

4Runner Roadtrip – Thasos to Rotterdam

After all of the adventures going across Turkey, Georgia, Armenia and back we were ready for some down time. The border debacle had really cemented this notion and we (Shani) found us a very chill spot on the Greek isle of Thasos. Three days turned into three weeks of doing almost nothing. The guys running […]

4Runner Roadtrip – Sardinia to Turkey

After almost 6 months living on Sardinia we were ready to head out on our big Caucuses adventure. Shani had successfully navigated the Italian citizenship system and had a freshly minted Italian passport and ID card. None of which would have been possible without the help of our new friends Nicola and our landlady Piera. […]

RV Roadtrip – Sweden Part 2

After leaving our friends and Norway, our first order of business was some maintenance on the camping car. We were overdue for new tires and had been for quite a while.

RV Roadtrip From Cannes to Venice

After Monaco we were headed into Italy for a couple of days before going into Croatia. We had planned on doing a pretty long day heading from Cannes to just a bit outside of Verona, a little over 450 km and probably 6 or 7 hours of driving, one of our biggest driving days of […]

A Day in Monaco

From our camping at  Camping Les Cigales in Cannes it was a relatively straight forward day trip to Monaco. We did the same bus to the central train station in Cannes and then a longer train ride to the Monaco Ville stop. In all honesty, it was a little confusing trying to figure out the right train. […]

RV Roadtrip From Peniscola to Cannes

Our visit to Peniscola was entirely too short and I was a bit envious of the retirees spending the whole season there. But, time was of the essence and we were still racing the Schengen visa so onward and upward! Setting off, our first stop would be back in France.  We wanted to avoid Barcelona […]

RV Roadtrip From Gibraltar to Peniscola

After Gibraltar we needed to put some miles behind us so rather than taking a winding road up the coast we opted for the toll roads and freeways. I was a little disappointed to not drop into the resort town of Marbella as some of the vlogs I’ve seen from there make it look amazing. […]

RV Roadtrip From Portugal to Gibraltar

Somewhere in the back of my mind Gibraltar had always seemed intriguing. Maybe the importance “The Rock” played during World War 2, maybe the extreme southern point and the strait itself and the thin line between Europe and Africa, maybe the Ballad of John and Yoko? At any rate, the idea that we could drive […]
