Current Journeys
Family VW T25 campervan travel stories from the UK and Europe, starting with real trips already on the road and continuing as we travel.
At the moment, this page is still early in its journey, with a small collection of posts including Kingsdown, a packing list, and a trip to Croyde, Devon.

More will be added over then summer as we travel — not daily updates, but real moments captured along the way.
What this page is becoming
Over time, this will grow into a collection of real journeys, including:
- UK coastal trips
- European road journeys
- Campsites that work (and a few that don’t)
- Ferry crossings, late arrivals, and slow mornings
- Family travel as it changes over time
Not everything will be structured. That’s intentional. These are notes from the road rather than polished travel stories.
The rhythm of travel
Most trips start long before the engine turns over — usually with winter conversations, a list of places to return to, and plans slowly forming over time.
The van always needs a bit of attention before it’s ready again, but that’s part of the rhythm.
Some trips will be detailed. Others will stay intentionally simple. That will evolve as the journey continues.
Trips so far this year.
Some entries will be detailed. Others will stay intentionally light. This is all very new, so I will also be learning as I go along.
