Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back.

Thierry, a resident of Guerlédan in the Côtes-d'Armor department, has built a motorhome with unusually large dimensions. According to actu.fr, the vehicle offers a spacious interior and is designed for comfortable travel. Its size makes driving and parking more demanding.
From Wednesday, September 2 to Saturday, September 5, 2026, the Jacqueline dealerships in Caen, Rouen, Évreux, Plénée-Jugon and Rennes will hold a special back-to-school open house event. The program includes exclusive previews of certain 2027 models before the Bourget show, as well as special offers on a selection of vehicles in stock and end-of-series units. The participating dealerships will showcase their full range of leisure vehicles: motorhomes (profile, alcove and integral), camper vans, converted vans and caravans.
Online claims about a new French motorhome tax of up to €700 per year are false. The tax applies only to vehicles registered in the Swiss canton of Geneva, where it took effect on January 1, 2025. French-registered motorhome owners are not affected.

The municipality of Talant in Côte-d'Or, France, has placed concrete blocks and stones weighing up to 1.5 tons at access points to prevent caravans from occupying sports fields again. In May 2026, around a hundred caravans from Loiret camped on the football and rugby pitches for three weeks, prompting the town to spend €10,000 on barriers and another €10,000 on water and electricity. Mayor Adrien Guené criticized the state for not handling the situation, though he noted the stay passed without major incidents.
