After selling Big Red, Our Converted Ford Transit Campervan, we kept wondering where would we want to spend our last time vanlifing Europe in Big Red. We chose Cornwall as it is a beautiful coastline here in the UK. But in this video, that journey ends too as we enjoy our last time fully enjoying vanlife before the chaos begins of having to pack up everything we own and give Big Red to the new owner.

So before we give the van to the new owner, we just wanted to sit and enjoy vanlife in Europe for the last time.

Now that we are back in the United Kingdom due to our Ford Transit Campervan being sold. We have very little time to enjoy our last little moments with Big Red, so though it would be great to check out the Cotswolds. This is a place in the Western side of Oxfords and a town we want to go and see is Bourton-on-the-water. We also wanted to go to Didly Squat which is Jeremy Clarksons Farm Shop and have a beer and some food to see what its like. We also enjoy what could be our last campevan stay in Big Red.

About a month ago, Big Red (Our converted Ford Transit Van) broke down in spain and turnes out to be cracked piston due to a failing injector. After struggling for a week to get a mechanic, Ford said they would help us so we left the van with them to rebuild the engine while we traveled to the UK to escape Schengen area. A month later, we recieved the message that our van is ready and that we can fetch it in spain.

After leaving Big Red (Our Ford Transit Campervan) in Spain and flying to Scotland (United Kingdom) to film a video, we decided to do a little road trip and while we were here and seeing as we will not be back in Scotland for the foreseable future. So we decided to go and check out Oban, which is apparently a must see town when in Scotland then did a drive up to Glencoe and road triped along the famous A82.

While Vanlifing the Southern Coast of Spain before our van broke down, we came across a place called Ronda and after seeing pictures of Puente Nuevo, we knew this was a place we had to visit. We also headed further north to check out Setenil, A town where the houses are built in the rocks. Honestly, this has to be one of the picturesk towns in Spain and I don't know if it can get better than this.

When Vanlifing Spain, one place we always skipped was Seville. For some reason, driving through it, didnt seem like it had much as was just a normal town in spain. After hearing many people say it's a must destination for Travel, we thought that because passing through for the 3rd time, we have to check why everyone goes to Seville Spain.

After leaving our van in Portugal for over 4 months, we return to Big Red in hopes to find zero mold build up anywhere in the van. As most of you know, mold is no friend when it comes to campervans and before leaving the van in Portugal, we left quite a few dehumidifies to combat mold while we were in South Africa. So in this episode, we fetch out van and inspect it for mold, as well as re-organise the van so we can begin our 2026 vanlife adventure around Europe
