Current situation...DH & myself. 2 Dcs who will have left home in 3 years to go back to the uk (we live in an EU country). We have no mortgage on our home, it’s worth about €200k. We have a car loan which will end in 2 years. DH is 20 years older than me and will be of retirement age in 5 years. We don’t have any private pensions just started pensions. DH has full I don’t as yet.

I really want to sell up and travel when the kids have left home. Get a campervan (we love camping) and travel Europe/UK, with me picking up work in Summer/when needed. Do you think this is feasible? I like living where we do but I don’t love it. I feel like we could be spending our time together in better ways.

Has anyone done this before?

There are quite a lot of FB sites for more permanent motor-homers. Lots of good tips, there.

Our retirement plan was a villa in Spain. Or a motor-home in Europe.

Brexit has kyboshed that!

But a good motor-home won't depreciate much in value.
