🌟 Where should you go next?

“Where’s your favourite place in Europe?” I get asked this ALL the time. Usually followed by: “Where should we go on our next motorhome trip?” And honestly? Picking ONE favourite is impossible. 😆 When I was invited back again to speak at the NEC Motorhome and Caravan Show this year, I decided to build my entire talk around that question: Where should you go in Europe… with the time you actually have? Because a week away calls for a different adventure to three weeks of exploring. And somewhere that’s fantastic in September might be a very different experience in August! We covered ideas for shorter trips, places worth venturing further for, and a few bigger adventures for the “one day…” bucket list. It was brilliant to meet so many of you at the show. But if you couldn’t make it — or you were there and couldn’t possibly remember all the places I mentioned — I recorded the talk. It’s now live on YouTube here.
Put the kettle on, grab a map and come along for some inspiration. Although I accept absolutely no responsibility for how much longer your travel wishlist gets. 😉
P.S: I put together three free itineraries to go along with this talk. You can find them here. Also, thank you to everyone who's wished me well for my surgeries. Next one is tomorrow. 🤕 At least this weather is perfect for hibernating in! |

Well, that's the end of another fantastic NEC show. 8 talks on stage over 6 days, lots of books signed, thousands of steps each day, and a few too many Subway cookies As always, while the show is packed with incredible vehicles and accessories, it’s the people that make it fun. Thank you to everyone who came to watch one of my talks, bought a book or just stopped me in the halls to say they watch/read my content and how helpful it’s been. I really appreciate all of you 🧡 I did record my talk...
The biggest issue with travelling solo is there is NO ONE to blame but yourself when you do something stupid. It's very inconvenient! Sadly, no matter how experienced a motorhomer you might be, you still occassionally do something downright silly. Generally when an entire campsite of people are staring at you in disbelief. 🫣 A while ago, I arrived at a campsite and (for reasons which aren't clear to anyone, including me) I decided to drive my motorhome onto a grass field... just after a heavy...
