Hello from France (1 Viewer)

[Oldhymer]

A new arrival on the forum.

We have a '92 Hymer B544 (the proverbial one previous owner, low mileage, full history, always kept under cover kind) which I bought in Germany about 5 years ago and re-registered in France where we now live. Much loved by its first owner and still kept under cover in our barn when not in use it's still in beautiful condition. I'd be interested to hear from owners of other older motorhomes.

We've not used it as much as we'd like due to busy summers restoring and running the Gites but it has been to the Med and the Loire chateaux once each and England a few times for family visits. Life for motorhomes (Camping Cars here) is much simpler in France because of great choice of free or inexpensive 'Aires' in almost every town.

If we can be of any help with info on this part of France (Charente Maritime)
or registering motorhomes in France (sometimes more difficult than it looks) please just ask.

The Gite season is running down now, so next week we plan to head for the Venise Verte - we spotted a great 'Aire' at Coulon when we passed in the car recently ...

Hello. Thanks for the offer of help. Something tells me that I might well be in touch soon for some general guidance on touring France long-term.
All the best

Hi there

We are loving our new to us 1992 Hymer 544. Lots of space inside but small enough to park easily. We also love the panoramic view from the bay window. It certainly seems well built so just adding our own personal touches.
We are taking her on her first trip abroad on Sept 14th and can't wait.

Deborah and Colin aka Helga

Hi and welcome to Fun

We passed through your area yesterday en route to Ares on the Arcachon Basin :thumb:
I hope you get to use your Hymer more & enjoy your travels.
