Recently come across your channel Nigel & Sue and now I've been working my way through your Europe videos - cracking stuff, great job! I love Italy and have been four times but my work restricts my ability for my partner and I to travel for long periods of time. Thank you for sharing your journey so I can enjoy the views from my home in England!

Thanks Coen and Jay, glad you're enjoying the Europe series. The soup is simple,fry up and onion and some garlic, chop two leeks and put them in, saute for 10 minutes on low to medium heat (don't let the onions get brown or it tastes bitter.). Add about 4 decent sized potatoes cut into 2cm cubes and 1.5 litres of water. Simmer for 20 minutes and then attack with a stick mixer to blend it all together. Serve with chives (and chilli sauce if you're Nigel!!)

We have heard some bad stories about van theft in Italy, but I think you always hear the worst. Nigel was installing a (very loud) alarm, hopefully it will be a sufficient deterrent for any would-be thieves. And yes, Nigel carries his large DSLR camera and the drone in that backpack.

We have booked our flights to Frankfurt in March 2025 and will buy another German motorhome for this trip. In a couple of your videos it appears you have been using a front mounted camera for recording which you also seem to be able to swivel around to take vidoes of both of you - would you mind telling us the brand and model and whether you are happy with it or not - cheers Rob and Krys
