What countries have you found easiest to find park

What countries have you found easiest to find parkups so far? For us, it's definitely France, with Spain closely behind.

We love the amount of free (and paid) aires dotted all over France, nature parkups and services (we never struggle to find free drinking water, grey/black waste disposal or communal bins there).

The garage that our van has been parked up at for the past week has finally re-opened today, so hopefully we will hear more in the next day or two about price/timeline for flying back to France to continue the second week of our roadtrip!

Oh, and i finally convinced shane to install a step for the van 🤣 it's SO much easier getting in and out now!

Our trip along the north coast of France took us through Normandy, to Brittany. It was definitely a lot of driving, considering we only had a few days there, but we found some lovely beaches, cliffs that looked like we were in Devon or Cornwall and of course, lighthouses!

It's been so long that i can't actually remember where any of these were 😅

Hey! Can you believe it's been over a year since we last posted?! Even with a long weekend to Brittany and our Christmas trip to Spain, we've barely posted, so i thought i would catch you up on our last couple adventures, starting with our trip to northern France last July!

One of our first stops was to Mont Saint Michel, a tidal island in Normandy 1km from the mainland. You can access it by free shuttle bus from the (paid) carpark, or by walking along the path to the island. We caught the bus there and walked back.

It's actually a lot bigger than i thought, with hotels, restaurants, shops and museums lining the many streets.

We parked up in the motorhome parking lot, which costs €27 for 24hrs parking during summer (you can stay overnight too and it's cheaper out of season).

We spent a good few hours wandering the streets, stopped for some moules frites (mussels and fries) and then look a slow walk back admiring the sunset.

When we were looking for things to do in the south

When we were looking for things to do in the south of France, i didn't expect to find an area that transports you to the desert of Australia or America with a deep rusty soil. It was amazing to wander around.

I love that it's even called Provencal Colorado. There's a few trails you can take to different viewpoints, so if you're ever in the area around Aix-en-Provence or Luberon Natural Park, definitely try and stop by.

One of our favourite stops was this hike we did from Cassis to a viewpoint overlooking Calanque d'En-vau in the Calanques National Park on the French Riviera.

We did hope to do the hike to the beach, but the signs said it was quite difficult, and we'd already been hiking the cliffs to get to the viewpoint for a couple hours, so we decided to give it a miss.

Definitely recommend adding this to the list of places to visit if you're in the area.

The ferry is booked and we're heading off on another adventure this weekend (finally). Time to get the van ready and pack everything up!

We're only away for a week this time, so we're headed to Brittany. Does anyone have any recommendations of things to add to our list to see?

One place i was really looking forward to visiting

One place i was really looking forward to visiting on our French roadtrip last autumn was Provence and the Côte d'azur. The picutres look amazing with the cure towns and villages and beachside towns.

Well, as amazing as France is with their aires and parkups, the south of France might aswell be the UK! We struggled to find anywhere to park, even just to visit sights for the day. Aires and parkups were few and far between and most campsites were closed for the season (we visited mid/late October). We had a little meltdown at one point and debated just turning around and coming home, but decided to just stick it out as it was that bad 😅. One one day we drove for about 2-3 hrs just trying to find somewhere to stay the night, but everywhere was either full or in really sketchy areas.

We did find this charming little village though with free off-road camper parking (thanks to whoever it was that messaged us about it) so we took a quick walk into town, had a wander and stayed there the night. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area!

Have you visited the south of france? How did you find it? Did we just not have a good experience?

It's funny how some of the best parkups are always

It's funny how some of the best parkups are always just laybys with amazing viewpoints. We stayed here the first night at the lake ready to drive to Gorges du Verdon on the other side early the next morning. We had access to a littke stoney beach area just in time to watch the sunset and the moon come to life.

Is anyone else always amazed by the water in Europe? 😂 i feel like all i ever say when we go over is wow, look at the colour of this water, or it's so clear! But really, it is! I'm so used to our murkey green rivers here.

One of our favourite stops of our French roadtrip

One of our favourite stops of our French roadtrip last summer was Gorges du Verdon. We ended up staying 2 nights at the lake, one in a layby with amazing views of the lake and another in a tiny aire in a town with a short walk down to the beach.

I so wish we took our kayaks on this trip, because it would have been amazing to paddle over to the gorge. We drove around the lake, parked up at the viewpoint (pont du Galetas) and hired a pedalo (top tip, don't ever hire a pedalo with Shane 😅). All i got from him the entire hour we were out was how it was such an inefficient use of energy 🤣. If you do hire a pedalo, in low season (we were there in October) an hour would be plenty to pedal to the waterfall and back). In high season, i would suggest 2hrs at least because of how busy it gets there.

I couldn't get over the colour of the water - it's the most amazing turquoise which really glows when the sun shines.

Is this on your bucketlist?
