In Brief

On June 23, 2025, the documentary 'Un jour, un doc: Voilier, van, camping-car: leur vie loin du monde' premiered on M6+. FranceTV offers a three-part series about people who switched to full-time camper life.

On June 23, 2025, the documentary 'Un jour, un doc: Voilier, van, camping-car: leur vie loin du monde' was released on the M6+ platform. It features families who chose to live on sailboats, in vans and motorhomes, away from society. The focus is on purchasing power and the desire for freedom.

FranceTV offers a three-part documentary series about people who transitioned to full-time camper life. The series follows three individuals who, after losing their jobs or due to the pandemic, sold their belongings and converted vans, funding their travels through social media followers. Unlike forced American nomads, these people have the option to return to a normal life if needed.
