Lake Ohrid to Skopje by Motorhome– Europe's Most Underrated Country? 🇲🇰

Join us as we explore North Macedonia in our motorhome, from the stunning shores of Lake Ohrid to the charming streets of Ohrid Old Town. We wander cobbled streets, discover beautiful Orthodox churches, and stumble upon hidden gems—plus a few unexpected laughs along the way! After a scenic drive, we find one of the best campsites we’ve ever stayed at (and keep going back for the incredible food 😄), before heading to Skopje to explore its famous statues, markets, and local life. This video is packed with travel tips, honest experiences, budget-friendly prices, and why North Macedonia quickly became one of our favourite countries. If you love motorhome travel, van life, hidden European destinations, and authentic travel experiences—this one’s for you! 📍 Locations featured: Lake Ohrid, Ohrid Old Town, Skopje 🚐 Van life Europe | Budget travel | Hidden gems #NorthMacedonia #VanLifeEurope #MotorhomeTravel #LakeOhrid #Ohrid #Skopje #TravelVlog Filmed March 2026 📌 SAVE FOR YOURSELF 📌 Where we parked in Ohrid: https://maps.app.goo.gl/xFiB3WMwwL9iY...

Travelling around Europe & beyond in our motorhome, Peggy, backpacking further afield or exploring our home country. We love a beer, good food, Geocaching and seeing what’s round the next corner. Oh, did we mention we like a beer! 🍻😎 We realised not everyone makes it to retirement age so in 2022 we quit our jobs and rented out our house so we could have the time to do our favourite things. In 2024 Clare was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 47 which just solidified to us that we had made the right decision to live our lives the we want as you don't know what life has planned for you. In this world you get 2 lives, the second one starts when you realise you only have one! We made this channel for friends and family to see what we get up to and to hopefully inspire other people to not wait and get out there and do what they enjoy the most, before they can't! New videos out most Sundays and occasional Thursdays. Current location - somewhere across Turkiye - check Polar Steps above 😎☀ 🐫🌵🌄 Thanks for subscribing!
