As so many people do, we've always dreamed of telling the boss to get stuffed, walking out the office door, and travelling the world for a year. But like most, we found every excuse in the book not to do it. It's actually taken us 12 months to summon the courage and to save the cash to finally make our dream come true.

Freedom... Where We Want, When We Want

Hitting the road, we know that there are two things we can't compromise. Firstly, our freedom. We want to be able to go wherever we want, whenever we want. It's all about getting off the tourist track, throwing our guide books away and seeing where we land.

The second most important thing is affordability. Our biggest challenge is how to spend four months in Europe without destroying our bank balance. It’s no secret how expensive it is to eat, sleep and travel within the EU. After countless hours online and advice from with friends, we now realise the cheapest way to do it is in a camper.

For us, buying a van doesn't make sense. We just don't want to do three months in a rust bucket with a million kilometres on the dial. They are always too old, too slow, and inevitably break down. Plus, who wants to deal with the stress of selling it at the end of the trip?

The best option is hiring a van, and after all of our research, it is obvious that the only affordable option is a WICKED CAMPER.
