I chose a private insurance solution and made some of the equipment optional. The optional equipment comes as follows: - Bottom sheet is included. - Set of 2 pillows, 2 blankets, 2 sheets, 2 towels for 50€. After the first week, 30€/week. - bike rack 20€/week. - if you need bikes, I can add one or two for 10€/bike/day. Nothing fancy, but get you from A to B and are great for discovering the surroundings. (The bike rack is included with this solution) - One or two SUP-boards 7€/day & board - high chair (Ikea Antilop) for 10€ - maxi cosi (up to 13kg) for 20€ These extras I will charge in cash or mobile pay at pickup. Please be prepared. :) Now to the basic information: - about traveling with three people, for example taking a baby/toddler/kid with you. There are three places in the car. All have three point seat belts. - the bed is 120x200cm. - cooking with two very handy gas stoves. 2 bottles of gas/cooker/week are included. If you need more, you find the bottles for around 2€ in a lot of stores, Biltema, Motonet, etc. - Good set of kettles, pans, plates etc. - electricity for the fridge and loading electronically devices while camping comes from an auxiliary battery. The battery is loaded while driving, and with a big efficient solar panel on the roof. It should be possible to live off-grid just fine if you take care of catching sunlight with the panel and/or drive a bit from time to time. As a surplus, the panel also loads the car battery, if there is an overflow of energy, which there is quite easily due to the big 380W panel. So, with Bubble, you are electrically prepared to follow your own paths. - Chemical camping toilet. Mostly we have been able to use public toilets, often there are also some next to popular camper van spots, beaches etc. The chemical toilet we have used only for "number one" without chemicals or such. You can use the chemical stuff if you want to. - about the shower... there is an electric shower that you just put in the water. Good pressure. If you put water in a black bucket in the sun, it will warm, and you will be able to enjoy a warm shower. :) In case of damage, breakdown, or accident: I’m available via WhatsApp or phone from around 9 am to 6 pm to assist with any issues, mostly also later. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with car troubles, as many problems can be easily solved. However, sometimes professional help is needed, often meaning towing to a nearby workshop. The insurance covers towing to the nearest garage (or a slightly further one if the nearest is unavailable). It’s a good idea to contact nearby garages in advance, especially before the weekend, to check availability. If it’s late and you’re in a safe spot, it’s often best to stay in the van and wait until the next morning or day for towing. The insurance company is Pop-Vakuutus. Just provide the towing company with the insurer's name, and the invoice will be sent directly to them. You can use any towing service, but Redgo.fi (09 374 77 113) is a reliable option. Alternatively, you can call Autohätäkeskus (Car Emergency Center) at 010 253 0012, available 24/7. For breakdowns, repair costs will be covered by me, but we’ll need to discuss and agree on the specifics with the garage. For accidents or damage unrelated to normal wear, your deductible is the maximum amount you’ll be responsible for. Options for continuing your journey: • Wait for the van repair: I’ll refund the rent for the days the van is out of use. • End your journey and return to Helsinki by economy/second-class ticket or public transport. • If you’re not too far from Helsinki and I have another van available, you may switch to a different van for the rest of your rental period. Options range from basic to more advanced vans, some in different stages of the building process. . With open-minded problem-solving, we can usually find a good solution to these rare but stressful situations. I’m always here to help and will strive to find the best outcome. Please note that you need to have your own insurance for your luggage.

Small Footprint, Big Functionality. Your Bubble has it all. Ready for your next adventure? Meet Bubble – our smart and stylish 2003 VW T4 camper van. Compact on the outside, surprisingly spacious and versatile on the inside. A turning front passenger seat, Boulder crash pads that serve as mattress, sofa, and – well – crash pad :), plus a large solar panel on the roof make him ideal for travellers seeking freedom and flexibility – whether you're exploring remote trails or relaxing by the coast. He sleeps 2 and seats 3 – ideal for couples, solo adventurers, or climbers on the move. Maybe even two adults with a small kid. There's a powerful 42L compressor fridge and flexible gas cookers you can use anywhere, plus smart storage and thoughtful details throughout. Thanks to his compact size and manual transmission, Bubble is easy to drive and park – even in cities. And at around 8 L/100 km, he's economical too. Bubble is still evolving: we're gradually adding more gear like a tarp system, hammocks, and other bubbly extras. If there’s something you'd love to have for your trip, feel free to ask – if it fits, we might just make it happen. Whether you're chasing sunsets, scaling boulders, or simply unwinding under the stars – Bubble’s got your back. Book now and see what this clever little camper can do! If Bubble is not available, or you just want to check out other members of our T4-family, have a look at Pokémon (red-white), Bumblebee (yellow), or Shtisel (green). A fifth van – seating 5 and sleeping 3–4 (some of them small humans, so best for a small family – though potentially upgradeable with an extra tent) is currently in the pipeline and, if the stars are right, hits the market in July 2025.
