Overview
We are a couple living in the French Alps. Benjamin is from France and Alexandra is from Canada. We bought our van in Canada, in 2018. We travelled from Montreal to Panama. Then we put the van on a boat to Europe.
We live in Taninges (Haute-Savoie) near Annecy, Chamonix, the Mont Blanc, etc. It's very well located to visit France, Italy and Switzerland. The international airport of Geneva is 45 minutes from our place by bus. And if you come by car, you can park your car at our place during your holiday.
Our van is very compact and you can stand inside. It's all furnished : kitchen, dry toilet, inside and outside shower, water heater, etc. This automatic vehicle is very easy to drive. Electrical batteries are charged both with solar panels and motor engine. Very useful on rainy days. Because we built our van in Canada, the electrical outlets are 110V, but we give adaptors if needed. And we just installed a Webasto heating inside the van, for the rentals during the cold seasons, for those who are interested about skiing or rafting.
The only little weak point about our van is the bed lenght. But we lived 2 years in this van and we slept well. And we put an amazing mattress to compensate the lenght.
Contact us with any question. We love vanlife and we would be happy to discuss with you!
