We go explore Normandy in my converted camper!
With little to no plans, we go day-to-day, experiencing the van life with a good dose of spontaneity. We can decide where we go and what we do by the day -according to how we feel. We share meals, make fires, explore forests and the coast, have good talks, and basically aim to get grounded and refreshed.
I have 6 years of experience living a humble life like this. I like a good balance between technology and the earth, so my vehicle isn’t fully automated. It is a comfortable van, built to be like a cozy little cabin with a wood stove, but doesn’t have a toilet or shower. These things are done outside, and I have been doing that for many years so it really isn’t a problem!
I like to be around open-hearted people who are interested in alternative ways of living, people who gravitate to nature, are humble, and especially those who are interested in spirituality or philosophy.
Either way, I am open to most, am very easy-going, and have no problem meeting new people or sharing small spaces! I also like the flow to be very natural and non-pretentious. So come as informal as you like!
If you are very social that can work for me as I can talk for hours non-stop, however, if you come for a retreat and some peace, this can also work as I am very good with a relaxed and inwardly flow.
I also very much welcome people who are facing some struggles and just need a good support person to be around. This is one of my strengths. I can help you find some peace, and if you wish to communicate difficulties you may be surprised how helpful I can be, given my own life experience. The ones that know me, would say I am very enlightening to be around. I simply offer love, strength, and wisdom.
Either way, let’s aim for a positive experience and share the magic that vanlife can offer.
The vehicle:
- 7m Mercedes Sprinter 2011
- Has 2 sleeping areas (you get a double bed with a dividing curtain)
- Wood burner (no diesel heater)
- Music system
- Enough electricity for all your devices
What is included in the price?
- Accommodation in the van for 2 TripMates
- We share the costs of the food we share together (no meat in the van please)
- Fuel is included
- Firewood included
Anyone new to this lifestyle will encounter a lot of issues, but with my experience which has been very wild, we can make the most of it and evade a lot of troubles.
If you have any questions or would like flexible dates/ shorter or longer stay, then please let me know in the Q&A section. Either way, a video call before confirming anything would be needed.
Thanks!
