Hi there! We are Jan & Sharon and we would like to introduce you to our "YPKE".
YPKE is the perfect Van that stands for:
Adventurous trips, yet with a touch of extra luxury
Freedom and comfort: everything is instantly usable. You don't have to build or dismantle anything to cook/eat/sleep.
Slow-traveling: YPKE is very well equipped with 4 x 165ah AGM batteries and solar panels. This means you are not tied to campsites regarding electricity or sanitary facilities. You decide where you spend the night!
YPKE is a white 2016 Peugeot Boxer, type L4h3. We left the exterior white because we prefer to keep YPKE 'incognito', so you can spend the night in beautiful spots in nature without a worry.
YPKE is not a factory camper. So do not expect a separate toilet and shower area. The possibilities are there, but we have approached and provided them in a more creative way. YPKE might still be missing a few things here and there, but be sure to let us know if you are missing anything! That way we can make YPKE even better for future adventurers :-)
In terms of comfort, YPKE is ready to use immediately. We have ensured that you do not have to dismantle or assemble anything, but can simply leave right away whenever you want. The mattress is custom-made (180 x 120 cm), but we do ask that you use your own mattress cover, sheets, pillows, towels, etc.
PRO TIP: Make it extra cozy in the evening by using the projector + the automatically retractable projection screen over the bed. To do this, you need to download the 'Nebula Connect' app, which is also the name of the projector. Netflix & Chill all the way!
Is it too hot or too cold in the Van? No problem with our air conditioning! Even when using the YPKE self-sufficiently, you can turn on the air conditioning to cool down, heat up, or dehumidify.
Do you want to use hot water for washing dishes or taking a shower? That’s possible in just 20 minutes! Simply turn on the boiler, wait a moment, and voilà!
What we also include as standard with YPKE is a folding camping table and 2 camping chairs, as well as all the crockery, pots, pans, induction hob, and spices, so you don't have to provide that yourself.
Jan and I have lovingly converted YPKE into the absolute adventurous, modern, and cozy van it is today. We hope you travel around with him with the proper care and respect, and show him the most beautiful spots! Did you get YPKE a bit muddy or dusty? Then give him a shower on the way back. That way, he can return sparkling from his wonderful adventures ;-) (Do not go through the car wash due to the height of the air conditioning and the solar panel)
>> A nice little extra that we provide to our landlords:
FRANCE PASSION MEMBERSHIP INCLUDED WITH EVERY RENTAL:
France Passion is a network of farmers, livestock breeders, winemakers, restaurateurs, and artisanal product producers. They welcome campers looking for the 'real' France and extend a warm welcome with a free pitch. Here, you can enjoy hospitality, peace and quiet, a nice bottle of wine, and delicious food. All 10,000 of these safe and pleasant camper pitches are spread throughout France and are each compiled in the handy France Passion guide, the must-have for the camper who likes to forge their own path and enjoys connecting with locals.
Adventurous greetings,
Jan, Sharon & YPKE
