After 8 years and 90,000 miles of touring in my motorhome around the UK and Europe, I've learned a lot. I've also made a LOT of mistakes, or not done things the easiest way. In fact, that's exactly how Wandering Bird started- sharing the mistakes and tips I learned along the way in order to help others avoid the same errors. This week, I'm sharing 5 of the biggest mistakes I see new motorhome owners make when wild parking or staying off-grid in their motorhome/ campervan. They're all surprisingly common, and a couple of them can turn a lovely overnight stop into a stressful experience. The good news? They're all really easy to avoid once you know what to look for. So, whether you're planning your very first night off-grid or you've already dabbled with wild parking, this video should help make your next trip a little easier.
Have a wonderful week,
P.S: The Wild Parking and Off-Grid workshop is getting close! If you've not already reserved your spot, now's the time. It's FREE, so sign up here. |

Hands up if your travel photos basically consist of: your motorhome, your dinner, and the same mountain from 14 slightly different angles? (No shame here - I do the same, plus many many photos of my dog!) I’ve always loved capturing our adventures, but it wasn’t until I started travelling solo that I realised how much you can improve your photos — whether you’re using a drone, a phone or a “proper” camera. So today I wanted to share a few easy ways to get better road trip photos… without...
One of the most common questions I get about France is "where are your favourite places"? And it's TOUGH. There are so many incredible places around France to enjoy. Before we start, I just wanted to acknowledge the awful wildfires happening in parts of France and elsewhere in southern Europe. My thoughts are with everyone affected, especially the local communities and emergency services working so hard. The places I'm sharing below aren't intended as "go there now" recommendations -...
We've all been there. You've packed up your camper, shoved things into cupboards or piled it all on the bed in a last-minute rush... Only to set off and be serenaded by a symphony of noises. Bangs Clunks Clink clink clinks The drawer has slid open. The fridge has emptied it's contents Oh- and you forgot to take the shelf out of the oven. Again All in all, you can barely hear yourself think, (and the poor dog is looking at you like you've done it on purpose to upset him!) Over the years, I...
