UK to Portugal in a Week: Chasing the Sun & Epic Park-Ups!

The European adventure is officially underway! In this episode, I travel from Calais all the way to Portugal in just a week, making some incredible stops along the way. From breathtaking lakes to stunning cliff-top park-ups, the journey has been nothing short of amazingβ€”except for one thing… the rain won’t stop following me! While I’m still chasing the sun, Pudding is loving the adventure with plenty of scenic walks, and I’m soaking up the ever-changing landscapes. Join me for the first big leg of this journey!

  1. Fecking toll roads 😑 I rode from South England to Madrid over Christmas and on one part of France I got charged €20 and then within 20 miles got charged another €20 I was fumingπŸ˜‚ and this was on a motorcycle,I must have done summat wrong

  2. Made me smile when you left the toll road then went back on again. I did exactly that last year. β€œI’m not paying that”, said I. The next 100 mikes took 4 hours and were knackering! Back on the toll road next day. X πŸ˜‚

  3. I hope you're doing well. I'm a YouTube thumbnail designer and I love crafting attractive thumbnails that align with your brand. My aim is to make thumbnails that catch attention and increase viewer engagement. If you like, I can design a sample for you to check out. If it meets your expectations, we can discuss future collaborations. I look forward to your response. Thank you!

  4. Why were you wearing a coat/jacket and a fleece whilst driving? Has the van heater broke??
    The dog growling at the bin in the flood made me laugh πŸ˜„
    Anyway, I've subscribed πŸ‘ Have a great trip

  5. Just done the same journey in my caddy with my dog stopped at the same service station for a shower near Bordeaux too haha.
    I've been in Portugal 2 weeks it been lovely weather upto 18c in the Algarve. just heading along the coast to Spain.
    I got buddy's EU pet passport at pets world in La Zenia €40 they were brilliant.
    Have a lovely adventure ❀

  6. Just found you're channel and now I'm going to watch from the start to see the back story ,interested to see how you cope in a small space ,oh yeah I enjoyed the first look at the channel πŸ‘

  7. Cat, just come across your video and channel. I'm a solo traveller, due to my wife's Alzheimers, and want to pluck up the courage to travel in my campervan with my dog Biscuit. I found your video really inspiring and has shown me solo travelling with a dog can be fun. I think I'll start locally in the UK first though πŸ˜‚. Good luck with your journey, looking forward to the next instalment.

  8. Hello I hope you are well, why did you choose van life? I am just separating from my partner and for some reason I just don’t want a house. I can afford one but the way this country is going I just don’t want to settle in one. Off grid one day but it needs to be a special place. I am looking for a 5 ton sprinter at the moment.

  9. Hi there. Found your channel by accident, I have a motorhome, and will be interested to watch your travelogs around Europe all the way to Cyprus!
    However, can I ask a totally unrelated question? What type of dog have you got? Is it a beagle? A terrier? Lovely looking animal anyway.
    Cheers.

  10. Way to go Kat. I am on my way to Africa right now on my motorcycle. Bloody freezing. Ice on your van in the morning, ice on my bike. Took me all day to do 100 miles. Fingers still have not got back to normal. Stay warm lass.

  11. What a beautiful woman…inside and out!! Also great fun I believe. I lived in Spain and Portugal until Brex n Cov hit. Would love to do the trip you are on but Electric charge prices are ridiculous now. Stay safe. πŸŽ‰
