Roadtrip
Our dream trip was our honeymoon - 5 weeks driving around 5 US States. We spent 2 years dreaming about and planning this journey before deciding to book it for our honeymoon. In 2020 we bought a Vauxhall Vivaro and spent the first lockdown of 2021 converting it into Osprey, our little home on wheels!
Driving holidays are our favourite way to travel.
