EPIC 5,000km Journey Across Eurasia Pt. 1 | Armenia to England in a £1000 van | Van life adventure

Join us on our epic 5,500km van journey across Europe from Armenia to the UK 🌍

In this episode of our van travel series we embark on the biggest journey of our lives, leaving Armenia behind us when Spring conditions become not just unbearable but dangerous, too. We cross the border into Georgia where we discover a secret hot sulphur spring in the mountains and meet up with our friends travelling in their VW T3. After making some essential van repairs we depart on a five day journey across the East of Turkey, leaving the Armenian Highlands behind us and arriving in the hectic city of Ankara on Eid-Al-Fitr weekend. Here we venture into the vast garage districts of Ankara to find a mechanic who can fix up our rusty old LDV van before the long journey home commences.
