Join JT and family as we continue our “Trip with No Plan” series in Europe. In this episode, we recap on our visit to the medieval city of Carcassonne and its famous castle ruins, then head south to a scenic campsite near Axat in the Foothills of the French Pyrenees. We take you along on a rugged mountain bike ride to the town of Axat, enjoy a peaceful evening camping under the stars, and share tips for crossing into Spain (including the must-have warning sign). The next day, we drive through breathtaking mountain scenery into Spain and arrive at a new Huttopia campsite in the Spanish Pyrenees.
Tune in for travel tips, scenic views, and fun challenges on the road!

So Who are Campervan Journey?
We are JT, Harry, Claire, Sam and Ben, oh and Hunny the Dog. We discovered campervanning in 2015 when we bought our first Volkswagen T5 Combo after seeing many at our favourite campsites. We soon discovered that owning a Campervan is a way of life and it is not just about amazing trips round Europe, it’s as much about great days out and family time…
We have been lucky enough to visit some amazing places with our van, many of which we know we wouldn’t have seen if we had not owned it. They instil a sense of adventure and where shall we go into your life.
After 3 years with the T5, we upgraded to a Volkswagen T6 California Beach, and then after 5 years we upgraded to our current van, our Hymer Free S 600. We continue to enjoy travelling and visiting some amazing places. You can check out our latest videos and adventures here on the channel !
Please remember and hit SUBSCRIBE! if this is your thing ! We try to make videos to share the good and bad of where we have been and some tips and tricks that we have learnt along the way, as well as reviews of some of the things we have bought to use whilst camping and places we have visited and stayed.
Remember, We believe that buying a Campervan was one of the best things we have ever done !!!

Hi JT, thanks for your videos, I am an owner of a Hymer free S since dec2021. When watching your videos, I was wondering what rims you have bought and what is the tire dimensions you are using? Would love to upgrade my wheels;-)
