Hi, we are the ap Harri family. We consist of Gwyn, Kate, Jac and Dylan. We went on a camper van holiday last year where we bought a scrap VW Bay 1979 Super Viking Transporter Type 2 camper, converted it in 4 weeks and went off round France.

It packed up just shy of calais, one day before we were catching the ferry back. The AA were brilliant, and got us a car to get back with and recovered our camper to our favourite garage in England.
We got some work done, and got a new pop top, and a propex heater, and went to Wales for a few days, which was quite uneventful.
BUT WHY ARE WE DOING IT?
Well, everyday of at least my life, I have to look at things and try to make them better / faster / simpler. And, I started doing this where ever I went. Now with a camper, there’s only so much you can do isn’t there?
I want us as a family to enjoy the basics in life. To not keep trying to be more and more, well, comfortable.
It’s like in that crap/funny film that I forget the name of, it’s only when we watch children playing that we realise our complete inability to enjoy ourselves.
So, we’ve done a few more mods and we’re off on a European Odyssey, well, France again, but for three weeks.
We’re quite hopeful…
