Bas
Co-founder of Camproads
Bas is co-founder of Camproads. He previously worked in the travel industry on rail and package holidays, and started Camproads on the conviction that a campervan trip deserves better planning than a list of sights. At Camproads he handles route research and the data behind it: which stages are actually drivable, where you may legally spend the night, and what a trip really costs. He prefers writing about what other articles skip.
