What It's Really Like Driving Around the World | van life europe

Van Life Vlog | The highs and lows of living in a van and traveling around the world with NO plans 😞😊 | Eamon & Bec in Europe

This week we get off the beaten path and discover a part of Europe that we've never heard about! After a fun week in Northern Spain in the Pyrenees mountains, we decided to head east in hopes of uncovering a few more secret spots! And while we knew that the mountains bordered France + Spain we had NO idea that there was a tiny country right smack in between them called Andorra 😂. I guess we learned that traveling without a plan in Europe can leave you in entirely new countries!

This lifestyle is often met with highs and lows and as we travel through the week we share quite a few of these with you. A new country means no SIM cards, a new language and learning to navigate the new surroundings. Then our worst nightmare happens and we are robbed of all our valuables. But that's a story for another time...

Our van life in Europe began when we decided to ship our van across the world in search of the next big adventure! Since then we've driven our sprinter van conversion from England - Wales - Ireland - Scotland - France - Spain - Portugal and now back to Portugal! Every week we share an episode of what it's like to van life in the city as well as van life in nature as we try to see and do most everything Europe has to offer ❤️🌎

Catch up on our last adventures:

Good morning everyone! This week was quite the roller coaster... I mean, we ACCIDENTALLY ended up in a country we'd never heard of 😂. Just wanted to say that the "preview" clips for next week show us very upset but while our nightmare did happen yesterday we are OKAY and that's all that matters ❤️. More on of that this in the coming days x

[caroleeeey]

Coming near the end of my life, I realize all the adventures and experiences that I have missed. Living vicariously through you two. Love all your postings.

[mblaze]

“she can sense your energy, she’s also plant-based” 😂

[julierogers]

This is a small aside, but I love the little scene of what goes into your backpack (laying on the bed), drone, camera, apples Thanks!

[cloudlover]

Oh my gosh that last clip is so upsetting. I'm glad to hear you're both okay and I'm sending all my love your way! xx

[makanivalur]

Oh goodness, that last clip.. Are you guys ok? Do you need anything immediately? If no, please set up a donations thing somewhere. Remember you're not alone. You have friends and we're all here for you. Please let us help if you need us to, ok? Glad you're both ok and sending lots of love. Material things can be replaced and you don't have to do it alone.

[kierramakayla]

Oh no, I felt that last clip in my heart. Hoping you both are safe & that everything can be replaced!

[DanaEpp]

OMG. The ending clip is such a gut punch. How unfair that you should be victimized by the unkindness of others! I am sorry to hear about the robbery you guys have just endured. I know such crimes make victims feel terribly violated. Especially in a van when in another country. If the strength you guys have displayed during past vids is any indication of your resiliency, this upset will only be temporary.

If you need anything from 🇨🇦 that you can't get over there, let me know. I'll try to get it to you from Vancouver.

[katemccaskill]

My favorite thing about you guys is that you express how grateful you are for your life style!! You help me to remember all that I have!!!❤️❤️❤️

[karlieann]

I love that bec calls Eamon buddy it’s the sweetest thing

[heatherlewis]

I'm off to buy the cookbook. I've been on the fence about it because I'm trying not to spend money but I feel inspired to help if only just a little. I am so sorry for your hardship. I love watching your videos weekly and they always leave me with a positive outlook on life. Please keep your light shining. It is a blessing to us all.

[karlasabineweber]

How about all of us subscribers binge-watching Eamon & Bec videos tonight, especially the ads from beginning to end? I am and I'm doing it on my phone as well. This way we could at least help them get new equipment!
❤️ to you guys. You are such wonderful people and I'm so sorry, you had to go through this.

[PaperTinkerbell]

The true emotions at the end brought tears in my eyes. 😢 When these kind of things happen to such nice people, it is extra heart breaking. Sending good thoughts your way, keep strong and don't let these kind of situations bring you down. ❤ lots of love from Latvia

[marzmontgomery]

It was so sweet when Bec teared up because you acknowledged what we all know, she works hard to make quality content for your fans. 😊💞

[quinnie]

There is some thing about Bec that I connect with so much. When she's happy, I feel happy, when you guys said goodbye to Rojo I balled with her, when she expresses her gratitude for the life you guys have it makes me grateful for what I have and motivated to pursue the life I want... and then when you guys go through things like this it hits so hard :( I hope nothing irreplaceable was taken and that you can continue forward with your heads held high. Wish there was something I could do (definitely watched all the ads one this one haha) but its lovely to read the comments and see the support from all over the world. Sending love across the oceans to you both 💓🌊

[katiewiggins]

the ending hurt my heart 😔 i'm glad you guys are alright!❤ i'm anticipating next weeks video already and this one just got posted 😅

[aureliedevos]

Watching and reading Bec's insta story, and then seeing that last clip, breaks my heart. You guys worked so hard for all that.. I'm happy you two are okay, and you guys are so lucky to have each other. I hope you can track down some of your stuff.

[joanarango]

Everyday I got to work and get drained by giving it my all and go through tough moments just like everyone. There is a moment every week I feel like I’m getting lost and getting stuck where I am in my life, and every single week you guys are there to give me back my inspiration and hope to get my van and convert it into my home. I know this week ended rough for y’all, but it’s the adventure of life not a planned trip. Sometimes things happen you can’t control, but the effect y’all have is enormous on the human soul, especially mine. I thank you so much for sharing some part of your amazing unique lives with everyone. Even though we don’t know each other, y’all are beautiful souls and I wish you with all my heart so many moments of growth and happiness for you. It breaks my heart to see y’all cry or have anything happen to y’all. I hope everything will be fine. If I can help at all, I will.

[kaitlynarsenault]

Watching Bec freaking out about the foal (baby horse) made me smile. If you ever run into them on a trail or in a field, they won’t hurt you ♥️ they’re just super inquisitive. If you have Apple, feed it on the palm of a flat hand.

Love your vlogs! ♥️♥️♥️

[emmapaoletti]

It’s so inspiring to see how positive you are and physically see how much you love what you do. Of course the roads get bumpy (pun intended), but it never seems to stop you from enjoying the moment!
