    The cut outs and the sides of houses are perfect! They’re my go to and have never let me down, like you say not impacting anyone is key…legal and polite always for the win. Good move on changing spots, if you’ve got an ounce of doubt move on, it will only play on your mind all night.

    Sometimes needs must and a street park up is practical rather than staying at a campsite, pub stop or designated parking area. Great advice on being respectful to the locals when choosing a spot. No one wants someone blocking their driveway let’s face it! 😊

    In Arizona urban areas it is tough. Avoid Flagstaff, Arizona, USA- they are strict. If you are caught sleeping in your van here you are fined. "no overnight parking" signs are almost everywhere. There are a lot of tow trucks here. Come visit the Grand Canyon, but budget for a hotel.

      Is overnight parking allowed? How much do you have to pay? That’s a good one for us to try x

    Good tips on the stealth camping guys and do you have a new gadget on your camera (light) the video quality is great. Loved this but those services were a bit too noisy for us probably would have kept me awake 😂 loved the video guys ❤ xxx

    I have done lots of free parking and yes the side cut outs on housing estates are perfect. If it is a nice estate.

    Hi guys, was your sleep not disrupted by parking half on and half off the curb?

      That had me confused then so had to re watch it. We didn’t park on the kerb. We went up it but then came back down to ensure we were tight to the kerb

      It depends I guess what you use your van for. For us it’s about seeing somewhere new and then using the van to stay nearby to wherever that is. So whether that be street parking, a campsite or a Pubstop, we have options and know we can be comfortable with each scenario.
