RE: A simple Vanlife Getaway to the Italian Coast

Are you a full timer or a weekend warrior? I just finished a 4 year full time #vanlife adventure myself. Had some great experiences, and learned more about myself and what I can handle than in any other life situation. I can say though that it's not always a picture perfect lifestyle, lol. It's messy at times, lol. Wouldn't have traded that time for anything now that I am looking back at it. Unfortunately my transmission on my van died and it was going to cost WAY too much to fix so I had to say goodbye. Now I am back on family property and starting my #homesteading journey!

Sort:  

4 years! That sound like quite some experiences indeed!
For me it has been "just" 4 months now. I don't know yet if I am gonna be a real fulltimer as I might wanna go to Asia for the Winter season.

It is a beautiful lifestyle, but also getting used to a shower to little, running out of everything and toilets being full when you need them the most. I love it but it is definitely not for everyone. I have so many places I still wanna visit. Next year I hope to make it to Iceland or Turkey (with all its beautiful stops on the way like the Alps and Tatras and much more)

Yeah, I didn't travel like that, just stayed in the US. As far as showers and such, Planet Fitness or Anytime Fitness is your friend, lol.

USA is pretty much like all of Europe together! From Holland, I can cross through Belgium, Luxemburg, France and Switzerland all the way to Italy in just one day. The countries are lots smaller here.
And for showers, I don't do fitness, but I actually have a shower but don't use it daily. Here it is harder/impossible to find a fitness chain which has so many locations.
I'm currently in Italy wondering where to throw my Garbage 🤣 literally drove around the city but failed. Tomorrow is working day so hopefully I can get rid of it on Monday. For today: I failed. Cheers to vanlife

Yeah… the biggest problem with Van life is waste … what to do with it …
