This week we walk across the border into Gibraltar from La Linea, Spain to take a cable car up to the Rock and visit St Michaels Cave. We see so many monkey, cross Windsor Bridge and do the famous Sky Walk. We also experience a break down and get stranded for almost a week before finally setting off and getting stuck 3 times in the 'farmers protests' through Spain where the farmers were blocking the roads with their tractors. However despite all the drama we finally made it all the way to Portugal. The Joys of Van Life!
------------
Winters in the UK can be miserable especially when living on a boat and with all the canal lock closures for maintenance, I began to feel a little trapped. So for the next 2 months I decided to join up with another fellow solo female traveller and set off across Europe in our two very old camper vans in search of sunshine and to experience Van life at it's best.
I hope you enjoy something a little different as I swap boat life for van life.

Thank you so much for watching. If you are new here, I'm Heidi and I live aboard my Narrowboat The Rum Wench and travel the UK's Canals in search of Adventure. After selling my house to experience an alternative lifestyle I bought a canal boat and a camper van which as a solo female who loves to travel, gives me the best of both worlds. I have recently got myself a new addition to the crew, a fabulous companion - my little rescue dog Bonny who is an absolute joy and the perfect First Mate. I also work full time off grid from my tiny home and trade at canal festivals as The Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Pirate Boat.
