We are Carol & Ken & we like touring in our in our Consort Nova motorhome called Snoopy.

Join us on our van life journey through France’s stunning Grand Est region! In this episode, we leave the historic sites of Verdun behind and head to the charming city of Metz for a day of shopping, sightseeing, and unforgettable eats. From finding the perfect free park-up with Starlink setup to wandering the bustling covered market (famous for quiche Lorraine and Mirabelle plums), we dive into local flavors. Watch as we enjoy what might be our best meal in France yet – a mouthwatering sausage and chicken dish at a cozy brasserie! We also explore the magnificent Metz Cathedral, known as the “Lantern of God” with its world-record stained glass windows. Plus, tips on van parking, French cuisine, and a little afternoon treat haul. Perfect for mature travelers dreaming of relaxed European adventures. If you’re over 55 and love history, food, and van life, this is for you!
