Welcome to ‘SevenGrandVan’!
We’re Jack (Watto) and Laura (LJ), and we have moved into our self converted campervan (Citroen Relay) to embrace full time vanlife. After a three month adventure in 2024 to France, Spain and Portugal, we realised that we needed to see more of the world, and vanlife was the perfect way to do it.
And so began our year long plan to make it happen. We quit our long term, corporate jobs and went through the process of renting our house so we could begin our dream of motorhome travel in Europe.
We finally packed up our belongings, moved into our van, and began our road trip in March 2025. We began in Scotland, and then made our way to Europe, including Scandinavia, Croatia, Italy, Sardinia, The Dolomites, Andorra, and France.

Best Christmas present ever 😘
That’s was the best Christmas present we could have had, 9 months seemed like an age, so happy you’re back, roll on the next adventure xx❤
This reminds me of my morning leaving a camp site in France. Nothing special about the site, in an industrial area. The bakery was amazing! I believe it was in La Rochelle.
