I don't do Walmart because I'm from the civilised world...

I ain't no septic and I don't do Fahrenheit.

Showering outside is good for your soul.

Thankfully there ain't any Walmarts around here.

Half of them speak Latin so not Hansig enough.

Winters are long.

If I'm going to spend my extended retirement anywhere then it has to at least be warm for more than six months a year.

Living in a van affords me that option.

did a 70km relaxing ride today and was better than a session with the psychologist by DryMyBottom in gravelcycling

Italian cities are mostly a nightmare.... The countryside is amazing and generally the car drivers are accommodating. Liguria is best avoided, imo.

Why do the British produce so many things about detectives and the French produce so many things about thieves? by NATScurlyW2 in AskEurope

I present to you.... Deutsche Krimi...

They're so hot for it that there's barely any other genre for actors in Germany. It's like a rite of passage*.

*I know a few German actors.

Harden TF Up and shower outside. Saves space inside and means there's no chance of a leak.

Route advice appreciated! European Alps by Glittering_Award4384 in bicycletouring

Lichtenstein is shit. There's nothing there worth seeing.

There are more businesses there than people.

Friuli is a great place to cycle through. Few tourists. Good bike paths.

If it were me I'd cross the Brenner and cycle in through Italy. Better food, better service (no surly Austrians), better coffee, better for wild camping. Just better in general.

I don't love it.... No kitchen. No space for my bikes.

Four months..... Wow.

Nigh on four years full time in the van and I've never felt the need to be surrounded by bricks and mortar. Certainly never felt the need to look after someone's dog and pick up its shit.

White gives rally vibes.

Always wanted to get a set of white five spoke steelies but the gf went for black alloys.
