  • We're on a 3 month motorhome adventure in Spain and France.
    We're touring Europe in our Swift Kontiki motorhome and this week we're along the Costa Calida in Spain.
    We're in the pretty town of Mojacar and the beautiful port of Garrucha in Almeria where we find amazing free park ups for camper vans and motorhomes.
    Our Vanlife roadtrip has taken us from the UK through France and into Spain where we have been hugging the Spanish coastline.
    In this episode we explore Mojacar Pueblo show you what we cook in our motorhome and find amazing free park ups along the Spanish coast.
    We're Julia and Gary, full-time vanlifers who've been on the road for over a year. We love a good laugh and our vlogs have plenty of laughs as well as decent information on motorhoming.

    Hi Julia and Gary,
    Well, we are sat here in a stormy, wet England 🌧️⛈️ and I would rather have the rain in Spain falling mainly on the plain any day of the week!
    Glad to see you’re enjoying yourselves out there, don’t have too much fun though!
    Let’s have more Gary cam, his commentary on the weather is very much appreciated and beats Michael Fish handsdown!
    All the best,
    Zoe 🦯🦮, Malish 👨🏻‍✈️, and Keeva the Pickle 🐩.

    You find really lovely places to park up 🥰 Mojacar Pueblo did look really gorgeous and interesting but definitely not accessible. At least you found the lift up the top, is that a common thing or had you heard about it before?
    Love when you don't rehearse, Gary is so funny. However was disappointed when he didn't say anything when you said you were on top of each other all day in the van 😂
    Great vlog guys.
