220-221 Colourful Granada

Mark has been keen to visit Granada for months so I’d left all the planning to him. He was keen to stress it was a tootling about place, so he didn’t have my usual long list of sites to see. Thinking we wouldn’t be too long as it was Sunday and all the shops were …

182 & 183 Come rain or Shine

A second day of pouring rain and we couldn’t convince the pups to go out. Mabel flatly refused and Ernest darts in and out as fast as possible. Jasper doesn’t care either way. The day was largely consumed by a major writing session on the realities of vanlife, route research, pampering in the frying pan, …

167 – Embracing the drizzle in Szeged

Despite a deep clean and half a bottle of febreeze my sofabed still smells funky. The dogs seem to forget then catch a whiff of the puke patch and deep sniff it again. Its literally the only thing I can’t chuck in the washing machine so I will have another go at deep cleaning it …

162 – Random Spring Clean

When you are in a beautiful city like Budapest the last thing you expect to be doing is a deep spring clean of your motorhome. But that is what I did, despite the glorious 23 degrees outside. We had a lovely walk with the pups, then I came back and started tidying up and it …

143 – Vienna like a tourist

So it’s a strange thing…we both felt like we had unfinished business with Vienna. We had left thinking it was pretty but lacking charm, but in retrospect we treated it like everywhere else and didn’t embrace the wealth of architecture, music and museums. And so we are back to give it a second try. We …

Day 121 – Architecture and kababs

Well we are back in the flow of traveling again, digging out the tourist flavours and hidden gems. We had a nice walk at Seeser Bergbaufolgelandschaft just 15 minutes from Lubbenau. Though nothing special scenically, it was great seeing Mabel morph straight back into hound mode and dash about following scents…and then she found poo …

117 – Mechanical monsters and ultra pink

After a lazy lie in, we took the pups for a long walk around Neau Garten park before meeting up with Heike to visit a new part of Potsdam. As promised Heike had found an event that combined Marks love of science with my love of movement and so we went to a talk on …

116 – Birthday spoils

Be it a husband, dog or best friend, for me any birthday is going to revolve around great food and lovely company. Today was my dear friend Heikes birthday and we are staying in her home town of Potsdam, to share it with her (well her home for a short while). We met up for …

Day 110 – 5 in the bed and the little one said…

Journey: Berlin I remember reading on a motorhome forum a post saying how awkward it was when friends presumed they could stay as it was obviously too cramped and not practical…. I’m the total opposite, I absolutely love and appreciate my friends coming out to visit and share in our adventure and so on Saturday …
