Join us, Carol & Ken, on our latest adventure in France in our little red Nissan NV200 campervan. In this video we explore Chartres then as the weather heats up, find a shady spot to rest up.
Our onward journey takes us to Châteaudun with its château originating in the 12th century and the underground caves of the Grottes du Foulon.

🔶 About us 🔶
Welcome to our channel! We're Carol and Ken, retired professionals turned van life enthusiasts. We share our adventures across the UK and Europe in our trusty camper van, soon to be upgraded to a slightly larger model.
Our goal is to provide a relaxing, honest account of van life, with no scripted drama - just the real, day-to-day experiences of our travels. Many of our viewers find our content calming, and we hope you will too.
We're passionate about wild camping and love to share our knowledge and tips, from staying cool in the van to choosing the right toilet. We're always learning and look forward to sharing more insights when our new van arrives in January.
While we love the freedom of wild camping, we also enjoy supporting local businesses by indulging in delicious local cuisine. Expect to see plenty of one-pan meals and restaurant visits in our videos!
Our interests include historical sites, country homes, towns, villages, and the occasional city. We strive to share interesting facts and stories about the places we visit.
We're not full-time van lifers, but we use our van to escape the ordinary. We post new videos every Friday at 6pm UK time, sometimes more often.
Our channel is perfect for armchair travelers, those considering a caravan or motorhome, or anyone looking to unwind after a stressful day.
