- Hi, I am Jennifer, a #solowomantraveler from Germany, travelling Europe in my newly converted #microcamper D'Artagnan, a #fiatdoblo maxi. This is my first tour, doing #vanlifefrance and spending the night alone in a secluded and beautiful French campsite. Come along if you are interested. I will also give a full #vantour . Toilet? Heating? Power? Water? All of it is included. I will show you how cosy #vanlife can be.
P.S.: So many times there are spelling mistakes in my videos which I only see after the upload when I can watch it in a bigger format. Since I am travelling, I do all my editing on the little phone, so it may escape my notice... Here, in the last part, Madame is obviously not taking care of a spray cat but of a stray cat... and life with an f , not a v. Apologies... filming and editing while travelling is always a compromise...
Hi Jennifer, Thanks for your little van tour...Looks lovely & cosy, What a fantastic spot you've found overlooking the lake/pond, Idyllic💚 Friendly cat looked well fed...🐈⬛Take Care🇩🇪💚🇬🇧X
Hi, always great to read from you ❤️ Yes, D'Artagnan is all I could ask for... greetings from the mediterranean 😀
Hi Jenni thank you so much for the great video, and for wonderful comments, you are in such a nice place for your travels, and your van is looking perfect 🥰 enjoy your journey my special friend ❤❤
Thank you so much, John, I have been waiting for your comment, already 😀 Hope, you and Maggie have a beautiful sunday. Lot's of love from France ❤️
What a beautiful spot. The van is looking fantastic 👏👏👏
Thank you, Carol... and yes, L'Orchidée Home is gorgeous ❤️
Morning Jennifer. 😄Lovely to see you all packed and on the road to warmer climes again. D'Artagnan is truly very impressive and that mattress you have looks really so comfortable! You and your husband have done a fabulous job. A lovely and welcoming spot to overnight too. Drive safely and catch you next time.
Thank you Giselle... I really feel so comfy in D'Artagnan, he has everything I could wish for and the weather on my tour so far has been fab. I arrived at the mediterranean coast, yesterday. It is gorgeous... Much love to you and have a beautiful weekend ❤️
That really is a peaceful spot! Thanks for showing us around D'Artagnan he is amazing, you have made great use of every nook and cranny. Safe travels! x
Thank you, and yes, after the first 4 days of Trave with him, I can say that for me, nothing is missing and I am completely happy ❤️ Enjoy your well deserved free evening.
Your van looks wonderful Jennifer. ❤
Thank you. I really am happy with it ❤️
Du gibst ja tiefe Einblicke. Bin gespannt auf deine nächsten Ziele. Die Sonne scheint dir ja treu zu sein❤
Alles, was die Vanlifer so interessiert 😂... ohja, heute ist es mir in Sète tatsächlich zu heiß ':)
Hello Jennifer I’ve watched many of your uk videos, now looking forward to your end of year travels in France best wishes, have a wonderful time
How wonderful you will be coming along in France, as well... it is so different from England but fascinating nonetheless 😀 Thank you so much for letting me know you will continue to follow along, Allan. Greetings from Sète to England ❤️
❤ love it
Thank you, Aman... I do, too ❤️ Much love to you to your majestic mountains
Hi Jenny,
What a beautiful idyllic place to stay, where you are at one with nature.
Love the ducks on the pond, you won’t need alarm clock to wake you .
When you have the ducks quacking away on a morning.😂
The croissants look delicious and crispy, always so nice to have breakfast done for you.
I love that when I’m away. ( no washing up either 😆)
D’Artagnon looks fantastic, so cozy.
You and your hubby have thought of everything, you have planned it all very well.
The cat was so friendly, it actually look quite a big cat.
It’s very well looked after.
Thank you for the lovely video Jenny, looking forward to your next one.
Take care, love to you.💕x
Thank you so much Debbie. I have had fully packed days this week, travelling, exploring and filming... so much to see, such amazing places on my way to the new housesit. Don't be confused please, if tomorrow, a video with the same thumbnail but a German title will appear, I was asked in the past if I could make my videos in German, so this is, what it is. I will always do my videos in English but if it is worth it, I may take the effort of doing German versions, as well ...
Much love to you and your family ❤️
I love your van! It’s so beautiful and cozy. I’ve decided on a micro camper myself.
Oh yes, I absolutely root for microcampers... they don't need much gas and and fit on the narrow streets of Europe's towns plus fit underneath the parking barriers they have placed everywhere... which car did you get? Or are these plans for the future?
@ very soon! I have an appointment to look at a van tomorrow 🤞🏻 I live in the states and need to be stealth and want the better gas mileage .
@@Bohotraveler oh, wonderful, I will keep my fingerd crossed for you. May I ask where you exactly come from, in the states?
Lovely to see you and D’Artagnan on the road enjoying your first trip together. That place you stayed looks stunning 😊 Betty is going in for all her repairs soon so hopefully we will meet on the road as planned one day! Safe travels x
Oh, I didn't dare to ask out of fear it didn't work out, after all, so I am so very happy to hear that... Wonderful ❤️
And yes, D'Artagnan is all I had hoped for. The first trip was amazing and tomorrow, it is only a 2 hours drive to my housesit place. Lot's of love from the sunny mediterranean. Looking forward to meeting you in Spain or Portugal 😀
@ Yes the money appeared in my account today so I’ll get her all booked in next week - it’s been so stressful but I can move forward now! I’m can live vicariously through you atm and look forward to further updates! 😊
Wonderful. I am so happy for you ( and for me meeting you later this winter)
Danke!
Ach Sigi... wie lieb von Dir... Danke ❤️ Davon hole ich mir ein Tarte de Citroen 😀😃🙂
What a lovely video! Thank you for giving us a tour of your beautiful van-it's wonderful and so cozy. As soon as I saw those cushion covers, I was transported back to my youth when I used to embroider similar covers. If it's convenient, could you possibly film a close-up of the covers next time you’re filming inside? Decorating the roof with nature is such a lovely idea!
Oh, I can take pictures tomorrow and post them on the community page, tomorrow... I fell in love with them the second I saw them. I love embroidered things... wonderful that you know how to do this...
I am glad you like D'Artagnan, I absolutely love him... Much love to you ❤️
Pictures of the embroidered pillows are now up ❤️
@@jenniferk6632 I am not sure what is meant by 'community pages' I have looked on instagram and can't find them. Can you tell me where to look please?
@dafadowndilly8919 if you go to the Main channel page of my RUclips channel, you will find the categories: videos, shorts, playlist and community... click on community. If it does not work, let me know and I will post them in my story of my Instagram ❤️
Three cheers to an intrepid woman! I look forward to your new adventures in your super new van.
Thank you 😀 This trip has been so amazing so far, I arrived at the mediterranean sea, yesterday. Have a beautiful weekend ❤️
Very entertaining blog Jenny 😅, I have Been to northern France and Paris. Large country plenty of space… ❤❤
Indeed... and such a wonderful Infrastruktur for vanlife. Free parking with Picknick tables and public toilets in almost any little village and town. Lot's of love and greetings from the mediterranean ❤️
Thank you Jenny for the nice video and nice music. Happy travels in your van.
Thank you Brian ❤️. I have arrived at the mediterranean and it is gorgeous weather... how is the weather in South Africa? It should be warm now, too, shouldn' t it? Hope, you are feeling ok ❤️ Lot's of love from France
@jenniferk6632 good for you. I am happy for you weather good Jenny. You can walk around. Here coming spring. I am feeling a bit better but it will take me a long time to recover. Thank you. 🙏🙏
@brianbarbarich1401 ❤️ Sending you lot's of healing energy
❤

Hi Jenny. What a great spot. I thought you drove off into the wilds at first after showing the house. I didn't realise it was just down the slope to the pond, still in the same grounds. Very pretty. It can be quite scary for a single woman it was somewhere wilder, no?
You like to go south for the winter I see. Im the opposite. I like it colder.😃Still very mild here and as I hike four times a week I'd rather have frost and snow than all the mud. Wish it would get colder so I can wear coats again, and not sweat on my hikes. But Im glad for you that you are heading for warmer places.
Drive safely ❤️
Good morning Lyndon. I can follow you temperaturewise... Since I arrived at the mediterranean, I miss the crispy cold mornings in my van. I made the mistake of eating lunch in the sunshine at about 23 degrees and felt pretty bad afterwards , had to rest in the shade a bit. Unfortunately, with my lung condition, neither too hot nor too cold is doing me any good, and during the cold season, the danger of Covid is increasing as well, unfortunately... I think the South for winter will have the best temperatures for my condition... it is a test though, since it is my first winter travelling...
In my old life, I was working at the horse stables everyday and certainly preferred icy weather to the rain and mud as well...
Hope, the frost will come soon for you, Lyndon. Lot's of love from Sète. ❤️
@@jenniferk6632 Yes I totally understand your situation Jenny. I sympathise with you. It must be hard trying to find the best comfort level that is best for you.
Oh no chance of even frost anytime soon. Last 'winter' we only had less than a week of frost (January) and zero snow. Im thinking of camping in Scotland over Christmas if it shows there.
Take care in the sun and higher temps.
By the way that spoon you used for the tea is the smallest spoon I've ever seen 😂.
Best wishes. ❤️
@lyndoncmp5751 hehe, it is a spoon that helps me get the right amount... canping in snow? Wow. Amazing. You are tough... walking un snow is something different than sleeping in it. I could ship over my wonderful Mini radiator to your tent 😀
@@jenniferk6632 Ha thanks for the offer. I don't get cold though. I have a good sleeping bag and clothing. When we had the last very cold and snowy spell (February 2018) I had one night in just a hammock and a tarpaulin cover and even that was ok. Best thing about snow camping is zero mud and zero bugs/insects. And plenty of snow to turn into water, so you don't have to carry water supply. 😁
You're far better off sticking to your van though of course. ❤️
Hehe.. amazing. My face would be freezing off in that situation... yes, I think I prefer my cosy van 😀
💌💌💌
❤️🧡💛
Hallo Jennifer, wie wunderschön dein neues zu Hause geworden ist. Besonders cool finde ich den Ölradiator und den elektrischen Wasserkocher. Kannst du mir die links zu ihnen schicken. Die würde ich mir auch gerne zulegen. Danke und weiterhin eine tolle Reise. Grüße, Marion
Ok, Heizung mache ich über Insta. Kocher ist schon länger her, aber ich schau nochmal nach der Marke... und ja, ich bin wirklich rundum zufrieden ❤️ Wann geht es bei dir los?
@@jenniferk6632 Im April, dauert noch etwas ;-)
@MariOnTheRoad exciting 😀
Doblo? That's italian for 'Devil' right 🙃🙃
I love dogs but dont have the time to give a dog the dedication they need. This dog sitting looks like a good way around that. Have you ever had a dog that was out of control or disliked you on sight? A diablo dog?!
Hehe... no, definitely no Diabolo dog, yet... I love them all, no matter their personality, size or race, so I guess that helps ❤️ Much love from France
Couldn't you take your dog with you? I never leave mine alone.
I have tried several times. Loui, the white one hates driving and he has constantly been whining in the car plus, he really needs space to move around and didn't feel comfortable at all. Tobi used to be a very traumatised street dog when we got him. I took him along several times trying to get him used to travelling and he was fine in the car itself but so scared whenever we arrived at a new place, tail tucked behind his legs, ducked down. He loves his home and his routines and only feels safe there... I really was devestated but had to accept that both are much happier staying home with the rest of the family... 😢. That is how I started doing housesits inbetween vanlife. I love each housesit pet because I miss my pets when I am travelling...
