THE TRAVEL BEAT

Hi, and welcome to The Travel Beat! I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. This little space came to life after I decided to step away from the usual routine and dive into full-time van life. It’s been wild, challenging, amazing — and everything in between.

What will you find here?

About the blog

Hi, and Welcome!
This little corner of the internet is where I share all the bits and pieces of our life on the road. It’s real, it’s raw, and it’s a mix of adventure, mishaps, and magic — just like van life itself.

Here is what you’ll find:-

  • Campsite reviews and hidden gem stopovers
  • Stories from the road – the good, the bad and the “what just happend?”
  • Tips on van life essentials and the things we actually use
  • Destination guides from the UK, Europe, and beyond
  • Budgeting ideas to help you make the most of your travels without breaking the bank
  • What it’s really like travelling full-time with dogs (spoiler: it’s chaos and cuddles!)
  • Handy info, honest chats, and probably a few laughs along the way

If you’re curious about van life, already living it, or just love a good travel story, you’ll feel right at home here. So stick around, have a scroll, and let’s hit the road together — one adventure at a time.

Motorhome Advice

When we started out, we had no clue what we were doing. The world of motorhomes, campervans and caravans can feel a bit full-on when you’re new — there’s a lot to learn, and it’s easy to feel out of your depth. You want to get everything right, so you end up buying all sorts of gear (most of which gathers dust), spending hours reading forums, and still wondering if you’ve missed something. We did exactly that — overbought, overplanned, and still felt underprepared.

That’s why I decided to share what we’ve learned along the way — not as experts, but as real people who’ve been through the same wobbles. I’m putting together a proper no-nonsense guide for anyone starting out in motorhome life. It’ll cover the basics like what to actually pack, how to get set up off-grid, and some of our favourite spots to stay in the UK and Europe. I just want to make things easier for you — with tips that actually help, not overwhelm you.

🇲🇦 Featured Destination:

Morocco

Morocco is one of the most unforgettable places we’ve travelled — full of colour, chaos, and charm. From the Atlas Mountains to the Sahara Desert, every day brought something new. Travelling here in our RV was an adventure in itself, and while it wasn’t always easy, it was 100% worth it.
