France ranks first in motorway service areas for motorhomes

Experts from the Touring Club Suisse (TCS) tested 129 motorway service stations in France, Spain, and Portugal, covering 10,000 km. France ranked first due to a high density of fast charging stations and well-developed facilities for motorhomes. Portugal came second with good food and charging infrastructure, while Spain ranked third due to a lack of charging stations (only one in ten) and frequent malfunctions.

Vanecdotes: An unusual night with seafood in a camper van in the new podcast episode

A new episode of the Vanecdotes podcast has been released, in which traveler Mathilde Dubois recounts an unusual night spent in Brittany with a catch of seafood in her camper van. In 2023, she embarked on a tour of France to promote local gastronomic products as part of the Vaniti Vadrouille project. After a fishing trip in Finistère, a fisherman gave her lobsters, spider crabs, and octopuses, but cooking them in the small van was impossible due to the lack of a suitable pot. Dubois had to spend the night with the catch on the front seat, leading to unexpected sounds and a comical situation.
