People who do not travel by motorhome often ask whether living in a motorhome is not complicated? Isn't it cramped? Don't you get on each other's nerves? Isn't it difficult to cook?

The delivery time is about 2 weeks, but if you are in a hurry, just call and they will fix the process faster. The staff at the office have been incredibly helpful and accommodating, I must say! Here is some more info about the driving licence and the camping card, for those who want to know...
