It’s our first time on the 30 hour ferry crossing to Santander at the start of our European roadtrip in our VW campervan. We are so lucky to be booked on the newest ferry in the Brittany Ferries fleet- The Santona.

Having just early retired, we know we have to do the crossing on a strict budget. See how we get on in the 2 night and 1 day crossing of the infamous Bay of Biscay to start our Spanish adventures.

We are Richard and Jackie and we live in the UK. Our plans for early requirement include relocating to the Yorkshire Dales, developing our forever home and travelling the UK, Europe and eventually the world in our VW campervan Nelson.

You will soon realise that we are complete YouTube beginners with all the challenges of creating and publishing videos ahead of us, not to mention uploading when on the road.

Many thanks,

  1. Hi both
    We're in the research stage of campervan buying and are now on to the research stage of toilets 😮
    Out of interest what do you do re toilets in your van. Are you portapoti, composting toilet or are you always on-site ablution people?
    Thanks 👍
