Welcome to Travel Vixta, a family travel blog sharing holidays with kids, campervanning, kid-free adventures and days out in the UK and beyond.
We’re a busy family of four from Gloucestershire, England, who like to get out and explore. I’m Victoria, married to Ben and our children are Bella (2012) and Reuben (2015).
We purchased our Mazda Bongo Friendee poptop campervan in June 2018 with the aim of exploring more of the UK whilst being on a budget.
Ben loves camping and I’m trying to love it! Ben’s quite happy staying in a tent, but I’d rather a hotel, so let’s say the van was a compromise!
Whilst Ben counts a stay in the UK as a holiday, I think that’s more of a trip away and a ‘holiday’ involves getting on a plane to go somewhere with guaranteed sunshine, golden sands and turquoise seas!
With two kids in tow and funds somewhat limited, most of our adventures will be in the UK with the odd trip abroad.
As a family we have been to Germany several times to visit family and also had one amazing all-inclusive holiday to Fuerteventura.
Pre-kids Victoria has travelled a little and Ben mostly with work. Read more about our history of travelling by clicking here.
We’ll be sharing our travelling adventures, travel advice with kids, UK days out, Bongo campervan stories, kid-free trips and much more on this blog. Enjoy!
