Vanlife without buying a motorhome: from 349 euros, a kitchen in your trunk

French company Woody's Camp offers the Camping Box Cuisine for 349 euros, turning a regular car's trunk into a pull-out outdoor kitchen. The box measures 63x50x27 cm folded, extends to 153 cm, and includes two full-extension drawer slides, a foldable sink, and a strap to secure it to the rear seat. A stove, water tank, and faucet are not included. Production takes about two weeks. More expensive options add beds and furniture, but for official motorhome registration, fixed installation of living modules is required.

Mudslide cuts road near Gavarnie, motorhome swept away, occupants unhurt

A torrential mudslide hit Gèdre in the Hautes-Pyrénées on Saturday evening, blocking the D921 between Luz-Saint-Sauveur and Gavarnie. Over 130,000 m³ of shale and mud moved, with 13,000 m³ ending up on the road. A motorhome was swept away, but its occupants escaped unharmed. Access to Gavarnie and central Gèdre is restricted to local residents and those with reservations; motorhomes, buses and trucks are banned from the area. Cleanup is underway, with reopening hoped for by Monday.
