VANLIFE SPAIN AND PORTUGAL
While I would love to take my own van all over Europe it is quite the ordeal to ship a vehicle overseas and for shorter trips it makes sense to use a local rental. I wanted something with my usual creature comforts and lots of space for surfboards and I chose to go with Activans.
Activans
Activans are located in Spain, a few hours north of Barcelona but the family run team will happily pick you up form Barcelona airport where you can jump aboard your home on wheels and they will give you a full tour of how to operate the van for your trip.
Vanlife in Europe
Vanlife in Europe was surprisingly easy! A lot of towns were very van friendly even having dedicated areas for vans to stay in the heart of the city for free, with amenities such as coin operated showers and laundry which was delightful. Roads were easy to navigate and the cell signal coverage was literally everywhere which made life soooo much easier than in Australia or North America.
