18 Countries Later. One Year of Motorhome Living Around Europe

Strangely, 18 countries sound like a lot - especially if you travel as slowly as we do.😁
In this video look back on the last year of our full-time motorhome journey around Europe.

ABOUT US:
Welcome! We’re Andre and Lisa. A married South African couple who has been traveling together for almost 20 years, to more than 50 countries. In 2017 we took stock of our life and made the decision to 'retire early'. We gave up our professional careers and all our personal possessions to explore the world as full-time nomads. Over the past three years, we have been traveling through Europe with our 21-year-old Motorhome. Please subscribe to follow along and join us on our adventure!
You can find our blog at www.wewillnomad.com where we post regularly about the destinations we visit, along with travel tips and what we spend on traveling.

These types of videos are very helpful. Thank you for sharing your journey. 😊

[@russmcsporran]

Phew! You certainly packed a lot into the year. It’s great seeing it all in one video like this as with the individual vids you don’t get the scale of the whole journey you’ve been on.

[@WeWillNomad]

We always feel like we hardly ever move and yet when we look back like this it looks like the opposite! 😂 But it's still super slow travel in a way.

[@user-wi8ou3hb2v]

What a year of travel for you in 2023. It is great to get an overview and thoughts on your trips in one go but do really enjoy the weekly Video too. We hope to follow some of your travel routes in the near future if we manage to secure a van! Maybe 2025🤞🤞Good travels in '24.

[@WeWillNomad]

Thank you! It was a full year but oddly we felt like we travelled really slowly! Looking back like this definitely puts it in perspective!

[@charispapavramidis9155]

I think that the time and the places who live in Greece are so less😢.I hope another time to visit all Greece to enjoy your tour.❤❤

[@WeWillNomad]

Thank you! We plan to come back to Greece later this year and do it proper justice. The coast is unlike anything else in Europe and we're looking forward to it.

[@ritalang6964]

Wow time flies is what comes to my mind when I see this video. What a lot of countries you visited, i knew that because as you know I saw every video as you visited, but to see it all summed up together is pretty impressive 😅. I agree that you have to take some longer stays sometimes, we allways say “we are traveling not on the run” 😂. Love you guys see you next time, safe travels, enjoy and have fun. Groetjes 😘👋

[@WeWillNomad]

Thanks Rita! We also knew we had visited all those countries but looking back it feels like "how did we fit all that into 1 year?"! It was lovely having you travel along with us! 😘

[@chrisp9176]

Thanks!! Great sum-up.

[@WeWillNomad]

You're welcome! ❤

[@user-vf9he7jh3e]

You guys rock.

[@WeWillNomad]

Thanks Zoran! ❤

[@hrounhroune4223]

جميل بالصحة

[@AndysmGray]

Excellent summary of your 2023 adventures. I've really enjoyed watching and learning about the different cultures you show and also the local delicacies in each country. Looking forward to your 2024 travels.

[@WeWillNomad]

Thanks Andy! We've enjoyed having you travel along! 😊

[@creekyknee]

Great video, stay safe.

[@WeWillNomad]

Thanks Ronan! Here we go again!

[@august2108]

I always travel with you, we live in the comfortable and convient country, though more north east, in a vilage. colder winters and hotter summers yes it can be 40 some days though 36 is more the norm at the moment for summer, and -10 ish in winter, wonderfull video, take care you two...

[@WeWillNomad]

Hi Simon! Wow, those are some seriously extreme temperatures! We'll definitely not survive a winter at - 10 🥶 Thanks for the comment!

[@louie.s]

Thanks. I just needed this video.. I bought a camper recently and will begin travelling through Europe

[@WeWillNomad]

That's great! Glad it was helpful to you! All the best with your journey!

[@user-zp6vy3sz7o]

Great overview of your amazing achievement, loved watching, thank you! You must work so hard behind the scenes. Really appreciate your experience. Best wishes.

[@WeWillNomad]

Thanks Andrew! Not sure if we really work that hard 😂 but it's nice that the effort is appreciated.

[@Kermit-Si]

Wow, guys, that was a fast video, that's not you. 😂 I will watch it in slow motion 🤣🤣🤣 Seriously, you have been to some fantastic places, you have given me some great ideas. 👍 🐸

[@WeWillNomad]

😊 Slow motion is definitely more our way😂 It sure was an interesting year. 😎

[@carlbebbington730]

Great summary of your year. I’m a new subscriber so I’m busy catching up on all of your wonderful videos. Definitely approve of the campervan paint job, I hate all those over busy ‘graphics’ the manufacturers put on. Looking forward to following you this year and your Moroccan adventures. It’s somewhere I want to visit with our caravan. When you stop on the free camping places do you think it would be possible to stay on them with a caravan? I know you’re not supposed to really but I guess if they aren’t busy would anyone mind?

[@WeWillNomad]

Welcome Carl, thanks for joining us! 😊 We can't really comment on how caravan friendly Morocco is, we've only just arrived! But from what we've heard, "wild camping" for free is being discouraged more and more in Morocco. Obviously if you have a very capable off-road vehicle then it's a different story altogether. We think we'll mostly have to be staying in "campsites" and "guardian parkings". Campsites are cheap and shouldn't be a problem for a caravan. Can't say the same about the driving though! Ask us again in 2 months time!! 😜

[@debbieshipton8462]

Thanks guys awesome video. I would love to do Albania. Hopefully we see you again this year somewhere.

[@WeWillNomad]

We'll have to meet up somewhere this year and then plan for Albania together the following year... 😜

[@mikebourke1185]

What a Fantastic year ye had Travelling and the Van didn't give any great problems New Suspensions and a coat of paint which ye did 😊 It's good for a lot more countries 😅 Don't forget to grease the Back Wheel Bearings ( maybe they are Sealed ! But you can gently take off the Covers n add some Grease ) Stay Free and Safe Travels 😀 🙏 ✨

[@WeWillNomad]

Good advice there thanks Mike! Will check the bearings.. 👍 Yup, it's been quite the year hey!

[@johudson6765]

Hey … awesome overview .. .thanks as always for sharing your experiences, which are always useful to us … as we are yet to embark on our European journey. Good to see you both too 😀and it’s great to have both you’re individual viewpoints etc Grazie Mille ❤ PS really looking forward to seeing you’re travels in Morocco 🤩

[@WeWillNomad]

Hi Jo, thank you! ❤ It's been a bit strange not filming for a few weeks but it's been good as well. We're definitely ready to kick off this year with a bang ... eventually 😂

[@johudson6765]

@@WeWillNomad aww a well deserved rest! I don’t under estimate the work behind each vlog! And sounds like you have a plan .. look forward to it 🙏😎🤩 🩷🌞🚌

[@Selfation]

SO Morocco is back on? In the words of Tina Turner - you guys and yours vlogs are "Simply The Best"

[@WeWillNomad]

What do you mean BACK on? 😂 Do we seem like people who often change their plans? 😁 Oh wait.. No it's definitely on.. 😉

[@Andyoke]

so helpful to hear all your views and experiences, especially on desserts and pastries 🤣.....will you be going to the uk ever?

[@WeWillNomad]

Would love to! We will have to figure out the when..

[@Andyoke]

well we are travelling though your home of Italy this year, so you will have to visit our home country. It has some amazing parts to it. My second home is Ireland and the West Coat is a must. Google The Wild Atlantic Way, it is1600 miles (2600 km) in length, one of the longest defined coastal routes in the world with stunning scenery !

[@Andyoke]

Excellent! When you do it you MUST include Ireland, esp the west coast - stunning scenery! Google 'The Wild Atlantic Way', it has the longest uninterrupted coastal road in Europe!@@WeWillNomad

[@begizgrada]

👍

[@user-ml3ie9bo8k]

Hi Andre and Lisa love your channel would be very interested in your costs as we plan too take a year out in 2026 looking forward to this years adventures

[@WeWillNomad]

Hi Andy! Wow, that's exciting! Not sure if our 2023 budget will be of much use in 2026 😁 Just, joking of course. Hopefully it can give you a good idea of what you can expect. We should get it out in a couple of weeks. All the best!

[@tompiper9276]

Every single car is a stolen Mercedes 😅 26:19

[@WeWillNomad]

Haha🤣 If that's the case, there's a massive shortage somewhere else.

P.s. Marc Travels Pakistan India etc Electric motorcycle
