If you were thinking… littlebee4 is quite this last week. You are right.
Guess what?… I am on the road again. Traveling several countries up north by a little van. We will be driving about 3500 km probably a bit further as we take the SCENIC route… haha
You know I was on holidays for several weeks in southern France 🇫🇷 I will show you its beauty soon in new posts.
Since a few months I have had exciting plans going forward. Like; At the end of summer I will be moving countries again. (Yep again)
To do so ourselves… I bought a little old working van 🚐 a Fiat Ducato from 2012 and I have put in a mattress in the cargo space, that’s about 8m3. (Meaning we move with the van 2 times our belongings south 📦📦)
For our journey north, right now, I gathered camping supplies. Like foldable chairs and little tables. A camping stove to cook etc... the basics you would need on the road. So we can sleep anywhere and eat.
Last Saturday we started driving from Montpellier, southern France 🇫🇷 up north. As right now we drove 2130 km already. We went from France to Belgium to the Netherlands… (just up to Venlo) and crossed into Germany.
Sadly we didn’t have much electricity or internet data the last week on the route… while driving north.
Today (Friday) I caught a ferry ⛴️ again… from Travenmünde Germany 🇩🇪 to Trelleborg Sweden 🇸🇪 at 9:30h and it has free wifi onboard during an 8 hour sail/ crossing. So I can write a quick update for you… 😁 and show you some photos.
Today’s photographic selection will be of 7 PHOTOGRAPHS
Date : May and June 2025
The Photographs in this post are taken with my iPhone.
I will follow the time stamps on them. So it looks like you are experiencing my adventures on this walk to #discover everything what I saw, like the little #details seen through my eyes.
Some captures along the way so far… I will write some separate posts about the adventures we had along the way and what we saw and visited. As we drove slowly… up… to enjoy it all.
Here I am enjoying the view on Sunday from the back of the van. We parked for the night in Saint - Cirq - Lapopie, France 🇫🇷 . Right next to the river “Le Lot”. A beautiful location. Twisty and turny small roads through mountains ⛰️ it was fun.
Crossing into the Netherlands 🇳🇱
I love the Dutch roads… sooo smooth, very welcoming after the Belgium roads. They are rather bad… very bumpy, and this is me saying it lightly haha. I never loved driving on the Belgium roads at all. Luckily it wasn’t that long on (last) Wednesday.
For the night we stopped along the maas river in the Netherlands, Around Asseltse plassen in the province of Limburg. Such a beautiful and quiet spot. Just us and nature… the way I like it.
Taaddaaaa my little van 🚐:
Yesterday we drove around 600 km to catch the ferry in Travemünde Germany 🇩🇪 Here we are on the German roads. We had lots of traffic jams and road works… so it was a longggg day.
Let me show you some captures when the Ferry left the port this morning.
We are sailing with TT-LINE on the Tinkerbell.
Bye bye Germany 🇩🇪
As you can see, we had also lots of rain. Actually since last Monday it rained in every country we crossed…. Day and night… but still it went well with the van and stops for the night.
Stay tuned for new posts when I am back home… I will be driving on the other side of the water another 1400 ish km. It will be probably Tuesday… if all goes well. So maybe I will manage a post on Wednesday.
See you then 😊 take care my friends.
…and here I say that’s all for today’s post my friends.
Join me next time for more updates, adventures, #stories and photographs.
Even my own artworks, once in a while, will come by.
