We’re Kristin and Erika - me and my little Italian troublemaker on wheels. Erika is a true Italian lady, full of character. I imported her straight from Italy

QUESTIONS

I wanted a camper that’s not too big and fits easily into normal parking spots. Then I found the Piaggio Porter and instantly fell in love.

The side shelves with integrated lighting and built-in light switches.

Making sure to use every single centimeter of space for storage and being as self-sufficient as possible.

I’d make the floor construction lighter and use a lighter floor panel.

Mostly around Germany, but I’ve also done short trips to the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg. Last summer, we even made it all the way to Sardinia.

Getting Erika to Germany wasn’t easy. Importing her from Italy involved lots of paperwork and organizing.

Erika is small and slow, but I absolutely love hitting the road with her!

I didn’t even see the car in person before buying. It has air conditioning, but the cooler is removed. Once we lost the grille on the highway.

Scandinavia and Portugal

Don’t overthink, just go for it!

Not unusual but I never travel without cooling liquid, a battery charger, and a kick starter.

It’s funny how many people smile at you or stop to chat whenever you’re out.
