On 27 July Germany checks motorhomes and trailers on the A31 and A30. Also: a diesel tax in Finland has left motorhomes parked up for most of the year.
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.
The motorhome market in France has grown significantly: in 2010 they accounted for only 5% of new vehicle sales, but now camper vans and vans dominate. Due to high prices for new models (from €45,000 for a camper van and €50,000 for a van), buyers increasingly turn to used options. For €30,000, you can consider a 2013 Volkswagen T5 California (131,000 km, €30,990), a 2013 Font Vendôme Fortyvan (72,000 km, €31,590), or a 2006 Pilote Intégral Explorateur G713 (136,000 km, €30,990).
The used motorhome market under €30,000 offers a wide range of models, from classic vans to family integral campers. For budgets between €12,000 and €20,000, options include the Volkswagen T4 Multivan 2.5 TDI, Chausson Acapulco on Fiat Ducato 2, Trafic II Evado, and Adria Win. In the €30,000 segment, top choices are the Volkswagen T5 California 2.0 TDI 140, Font Vendôme Fortyvan on Ford Transit, and Pilote Explorateur G713 on Mercedes Sprinter.
With average motorhome prices exceeding €60,000, demand for cheaper alternatives is rising. Roof top tents (RTT), priced between €1,000 and €5,000, have seen a 12% annual growth in Europe, reaching €550 million in turnover. The fifth RTT festival will take place from September 11–13 at Lake Madine, France, featuring exhibitions, test zones, and music.
The French vanlife community discusses a lifestyle of living in a motorhome without remote work. According to community sources, annual income from seasonal hospitality work, agricultural labor, and selling handmade goods can range from €18,000 to €25,000 net. Expenses for fuel, insurance, campsites, food, and maintenance are estimated at €12,000–€18,000 per year. The model can be financially viable but requires physical work and administrative organization.
A fire in the Vieux Doulon shantytown in Nantes destroyed between 20 and 30 caravans. About 60 families lost their homes and all belongings. The appeal requests habitable caravans, construction materials (wood, panels, fasteners, tarps, insulation, sheet metal, windows, doors, tools) and financial donations. The families work seasonal agricultural jobs (vineyards, vegetable farming) and are due to return to work on August 1.

An economy is emerging around van life in Corsica, encompassing not only vehicle sales and rentals but also a range of related services. Entrepreneurs like Camille Istria with I Picculi Combi rent out restored Volkswagen Combis, promoting authentic tourism. Campsites report an increase in van visitors, who spend money at local restaurants and shops, boosting the economy of less frequented areas.
The van life phenomenon, boosted by the COVID-19 pandemic, has increased the number of camper travelers in Corsica. In some campsites, they now account for up to 75% of guests, replacing tents and motorhomes. However, freedom is limited by a ban on wild camping, and most travelers stay in campsites.
