I'm also very unsure whether I'll like travelling by campervan. It seems equal parts fun and ghetto. š
Btw this would be across Europe. The question is where (but I'd def want to include France, Austria, Slovenia, Greece and Turkey).

@Gina the problem with travelling by campervan is it's really hard to park in European cities. Fine if you just want to explore rural locations, but in many places you just can't park it.

@quixoticgeek I'm ok with that. I'm not really a city girl.

@Gina its also not legal to sleep in a vehicle overnight outside of designated locations in most European countries.

The saga continues. š„²
We've established that I need to move abroad. I still don't know where to. And I have two cats to bring along.
The problem is that buying a campervan will easily erase 1/3rd to 1/2 of my savings. And I need those savings to buy a house or start a business. It would be much cheaper if I just knew where I wanted to live and moved there, but noooo. š
I'm worried about spending all my money on travelling and then not having any left to move.

@Gina feels like you need to start a spreadsheet with horizontally all the things you want and dont want and vertically the candidate countries. š

@quixoticgeek @Gina we used to have reasonable success finding campsites near metro endpoints just outside major cities (disclaimer: long long time ago š)

@Gina I did it the other way round: spent my early life as a nomad, partly living on boats, and then settled down in the Netherlands. I'm also outside the 'huisje, boompje, beestje' class, I can imagine your fatigue. I would give it a gentle try first - nomadic life is hard if you have creature comforts or like predictability. I tried living out of a small camper in South Africa for a few months. Whatever location you choose will be coloured by your experiences there, so try a few.

What I could also do, instead of buying a van, is take short city trips by plane during long weekends all over Europe and try different places.
But that would limit me to big cities. While I think I might prefer smaller cities or even the countryside. But still with an expat vibe. And good coffee places. And quiet. But also lively. Sigh. š¤¦š¼āāļø

@Gina what about travelling by bus? With companies like Flixbus it should be possible and would help you connect to smaller cities.

Well... Actually you shouldn't crawl their statistics, as not allowed. Technically you're poisoning your statistics yourself.
