Living full time in a camper van or motorhome in Europe
Many people chose to live full time in a camper van or motorhome in Europe. Many sold their homes and possessions and now live their days in the warmer parts of the continent. Many planed on being away for the winter and have not yet returned home.
If you are thinking of doing the same you are sure to meet many other people for company.
Where to stay
Most people, living full time in Europe, spend the winter months in the warm Algarve of Portugal , or Andalucia of Spain . These are the warmest regions .
For summer, most people find these regions too hot, and move further north, to France , or Spain.

How much could be the monthly cost of living in a motorhome in Europe for a couple? That means, gas, maintenance, insurance, tolls, taxes, parking, food, etc. I would like to live 6 months of a year in Europe traveling arround in a motorhome. Any help appreciated.
I lived in my van for 9 months. I mainly free-camped, visiting a camp site maybe 1 or 2 days per week. I spent about €10 per day, so €300 per month. You could get by for less.
Thanks on this amazing site its very inspirational and the tips are just great. I'm always the guy who forgets things before I set off somewhere so its just great to read guides telling what not to forget and what to watch out for. I will check out these locations you pointed out here. I definately want to be in a warmer place than England during the winter months!
Glad you like the site al_UK. Go for it with the camper van. One of the best traveling experiences I have ever had.
