    8 Hour Ferry Home With a FLOODED VAN – What Could Go Wrong?!

    This week we flooded our campervan just before our ferry home!! 70L of water covered the inside of the van meaning we have to rip it all out.

    BACKGROUND STORY

    We are steps2adventure, better known as Jordan & Annalise. We created the steps2adventure brand to inspire people to explore what the outdoors has to offer. Back in 2019 we always knew we wanted to travel, we were planning backpacking trips, train journeys.. you name it. Thankfully we came across the van life YouTubers! As soon as we saw this way of life we knew this was it, this is how we want to live and travel. So, we bought a van… Not just any van, she’s a 2007 LWB Mercedes sprinter van, an absolute beast!! We have spent over 2 years converting her in-between work and some little adventures across the UK.
    Come along with us for some epic adventures across the UK & Europe and everyday life in-between

      Happy New Year looked a good adventure following you across Spain, while it was dark and Wintery here. Hope to be able to do it in my Transporter one day. Gracias

      Oh guys….what a shame on the last days of your brilliant trip. Keep you chin up and work your way through whatever fix you decide on. Its always a wee bit disheartening when something like this happens but in a month or two it will be history and a story to tell in the future. Happy new year guys and good luck for 2025.🤞🤞🤞

      Hi guys sorry to hear about the flood in your van ,we have done this twi, best option is rip it out and start again, to stop it happening in future we now use creatures hair bobbles to keep the tap levers from moving or being knocked this helps us loads

      Creature and artic monkey
      Hope you had a safe trip back

      So sorry to hear this news. We have had similar issues in the past but not as bad. You are right….best to rip everything out, including the wooden floor. Do it right and don't rush it within 10 days..get an underslung gas tank while you are at it

      We are just driving through France to Spain and I’m sooo excited about going in Leroy merlin 😂 on another note we flooded our van and your right you need to rip up the floor, we tried to cut corners and didn’t change under some cupboards and they have some black mould growing, we will need to sort it in next day or so. Leroy Merlin to the rescue.

      Happy New Year to you both.

      Is the Shere Khan's that you mention in your video the one famous for their "King Kebab"? 😂

      Oh guys am gutted for you both with regards to your van , I know this little set back will only drive you further to make the next build even better xx

      It's a hard life ain't it. Ya right, shit happens. Ya got a bit of wet flooring. People in Manchester have got 6ft of water in their homes and their cars have floated away. And ya worried about not getting to another holiday.
