Five years ago I burned a couple of bridges (read: ex-girlfriends) in Squamish, British Columbia and ended up moving down to Whistler, BC.
There, I met an illustrious English companion with whom I instantly developed a brother-like bond – shortly before the dastardly immigration system sent him packing back home.
After a couple of years apart, we decided to reunite on his home turf and surf our way from England, down the West Coast of France, dip into Northern Spain and then return to his homeland – all in his newly acquired Volkswagen T4 Van.
We learned all sorts of things along the way, so we figured we’d pass along a few nuggets of wisdom that should help you out if you decide to take to the road with a mate and a van.
