    Hi everyone! 🙂

    We have converted Zelda (VW T5 Transporter Shuttle) into a beautiful campervan over the last 2 years. I have just been granted work break for 6 months this summer and so we are off around Europe the beginning of May 2013!

    Any tips/essentials/camping advice etc would be hugely and greatly appreciated!

    🙂

    Hi

    Sounds like an exciting trip. Starting in May you will have good weather. France and Italy have Aires, which are low cost alternatives to campsites. Great if your van is self-sufficient.

    There are lots of tips on the website. Here are some useful pages:

    Camping

    Wild Camping or Free Camping

    What vehicle do you have? Are you working on it yourself? We arent that clever and used a few companies to finish her.
