    No it's something I've thought about doing for years. Got sick of just talking about it and when I sold my flat I decided now was the time to actually do it.

    Gave myself a budget out of the house sale cash, told my work I'd see them in 6-9 months and booked the ferry to Santander. I'll be back when the money runs out which will be sooner rather than later the way things are going

    Yeah I wish I had done something like this earlier, nae long turned 37 and would have preferred doing it in my 20's. Saying that you don't see much motorhomers over here under 60. It's full off Brit, Dutch and German retirees.

    This old van has been over the Pyrenees in winter but across the ocean to S.America would be stretching it's capabilities. I'm nae a fan of the heat so will be going north out of Spain when it gets in to the 30's.

    Good for you. The sale of the Lexmoto must have provided you with enough money for a few months as well.

    I love Alicante. Ronda is nice as well as is Girona.
