VanLife Weekly #17 · April 20–26

Greece has cancelled its own camper van ban — a year and a half on, as if it got cold feet. In Tenerife, 500 motorhomes blocked a motorway demanding the same — pitches and dump stations.

Plus 21 kg of cocaine in a motorhome in Lanzarote, a fake eight-wheeled Mercedes-AMG G63 and a Starbucks coffee trailer in Seoul — in this issue.

Motorhome Shelter — Optional Referendum for Project Loan

The project, costing 206,000 francs, includes 12 rental spaces for the public at 130–140 francs per month and is scheduled for completion in autumn 2026, pending objections. As the amount exceeds the municipal council's financial authority, the loan approval is subject to an optional referendum.
