From October Spain bans blocking motorhome parking, but the Canaries tighten site rules. Also: Honda Trail Master and Turkey's caravan boom.
Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back. We break down life in a camper van: where to find water, how heating works, what to do about electricity, and where to look for overnight spots. 7 countries, hundreds of places, and an honest account — from the mountain roads of Turkey to the coastline of Montenegro.
Comprehensive review of all RV and camper toilet types: cassette, portable, gravity, vacuum, macerating, dry flush, sealing, incinerating, composting and separating. Comparison of models, consumables, installation and annual costs.

Two men were convicted for a fire caused by towing a wheel-less caravan. One got 18 months in prison, the other six months suspended.
Since May 17, about a hundred caravans of travellers have been parked on the football field in Izier. Local residents are frustrated, recalling a similar incident last year when a group stayed for a month. They have submitted a petition with 79 signatures to the mayor and prefecture. The travellers argue that there are insufficient transit sites as required by the departmental plan.
Sheilla and Gilles Perronno, vacationing at the Grand Crohot campsite in Lège-Cap-Ferret (Gironde), were evacuated due to wildfires and repatriated to their home in Saint-Hilaire-la-Gravelle. They still do not know if their caravan survived. The fires destroyed thousands of hectares of forest and forced thousands of holidaymakers to leave.
For the seventh year, the media library of La Forêt-Fouesnant operates a summer mobile library in a converted caravan. Until August 20, it stops every Thursday morning at various locations in the commune, including the garden at the quay, the Izel Vor garden, and the Îlot Skoën, and this year also in front of the Kerleven nautical center. Visitors can read on site, and at 11 a.m. a story is read aloud.
In Reynes (Pyrénées-Orientales), a drunk driver crashed his motorhome into the roundabout at the entrance to the commune on the evening of July 30, causing significant damage. The mayor announced plans to file a complaint, stating the driver was in a state of obvious intoxication. The roundabout featured heritage elements, including carts from the former talc mine, which were destroyed.
At the market in Saint-Juéry, France, Céline Montolio presents naturally fermented drinks from her converted van, including kombucha made from French tea grown in Roussillon. She is the only producer in Occitanie making such kombucha. Her products are certified organic, alcohol-free, unpasteurized, and contain no preservatives. She also offers ginger beer and kôso made from fermented raw plants, as well as oak-aged kombucha vinegars. Montolio sells at several markets in the region.
