The logistics look like this: you arrive in Porto and a van is waiting for you at the airport. We provide full support, so if you are afraid of your first van trip, the overnight stay will be by the ocean near Rita's house. We really want you to feel confident and safe during your trip, this will be time and space for any technical questions (it's worth knowing English! Rita is Portuguese). Many people are afraid of driving such a large car, and it's very simple! You just have to break through and trust.
Then we give you a map and tips on where to stay, what to eat and what to see. They will be tailored to your individual needs, which we will discuss together before your arrival. Of course, you don't have to use our suggestions if you don't want to. You can simply rent a van and go wherever the road takes you.
The project was designed to support especially women in their decision to travel alone who have found themselves at a crossroads in life and want to stop and think about which direction to go next. A solo traveler will pay less for renting a car than two people. However, our van is for everyone: if you want to come with a friend, a child or a couple (it's a great trip for a pre-wedding test!), nothing stands in the way. There are many occasions, from celebrating a high school leaving exam to celebrating a divorce or quitting a corporate job. You can also go and just fulfill your bucket list dream.
We have a Volkswagen T7 van with 4x4 drive for rent. You can go anywhere with this house on wheels.
What's in the van?

We encourage you to travel with hand luggage. There is not much space in the van, and plane tickets will be much cheaper. On site you will find everything you need to make your trip as comfortable as possible. Pack only what is necessary in your backpack: comfortable clothes, sunglasses, a book.
The following will be waiting for you: – cosmetics (shampoo, shower gel, toothbrush and toothpaste for forgetful people), bath and beach towels, sun and after-sun creams, bluetooth speaker, yoga mat and cube, blanket, umbrella, books, notebook and a journaling pen, lamps and candles, a set for washing clothes, as well as: coffee, tea, salt, pepper, and on guests' request, a paid Wi-Fi modem. The set is constantly updated according to guests' suggestions.
