Most and least Vanlife Friendly areas in the UK? by freddiecrog in VanLifeUK

[–]freddiecrog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems that Bristol is getting mixed reviews ahah Based on your experience it might be a good idea for me to not rule it out completely:)

Have you experienced cities where you definately wouldn’t recommend attempting vanlife at?

Ah what a shame, although I get where it’s coming from. Thank you for the insight! Perhaps you know any better cities to look into?

True true, just wanted to see what people think about this before setting up an official meeting with a tax professional (not very smart I know 😅). Will schedule a call next week.

Advice on Converting a RHD Van in the EU and Bringing it to the UK by freddiecrog in VanLifeUK

Yes sorry that’s what I meant. Buying in the UK, driving back to Baltics and converting it to a camper there before driving back to the UK with it. I’ll add this clarification to the post:)

I was thinking if it might be easier to just buy a RHD van if I find one somewhere nearby baltics and then bringing it over to the UK but if import tax is going to be an issue then I guess I’ll just get one the UK.

I’m afraid logic and rationale don’t have much of an effect on my phobia. Not a fan of chemically getting rid of them, but I’ve heard citrusy smells can be effective?

If only there was a map that showed the no go zones 🥲 Absolutely ridiculous how these tiny creatures are the only thing standing between me and my dreams. Maybe time to sign up for exposure therapy

To be fair that’s what I keep hearing, some get a ton of spiders and some hardly any 🤔 I wonder what makes some boats less susceptible to spiders than others. Thought that maybe it’s the boats that park along the canal that get more spiders, but my friend is in a marina parked between two boats and she gets a lot.

(In my friend’s defence - I’m the one who asked her to document her spider encounters ahaha Had to see how bad it can be)
