Hi, I'm Aileen
Joined on November 17, 2023
Hello I arrived in New Zealand a year ago looking for a new adventure. I've spent this time travelling the north and south island seeing the best NZ has to offer. I've loved the ease of travelling in a self contained van, not having to worry about accommodation or extra costs when travelling. I can't wait for many more adventures around here.

Penelope while an older vehicle ran very well. The sleeping area was spacious and was a good fit for me and my 11 yo. A great way to see NZ!

Had a lovely time with this old lady Penelope. Aileen was great in communication and explaining, the van is really complete and still drives well.

We had the best holiday ever in Aileen's van Penelope. It was reliable and got us to some great places in the north island. Aileen provided us with some goodies for our first couple of breakfasts which made us feel very welcome. Everything about the van was easy and worked well. The bed was seriously comfortable and everything was set up to cook simple meals. Thank you Aileen for letting us use your lovely van.

Great we used the van to head up to martinborougg for the weekend. Was comfortable and drives well for its age.

Lovely van for our two person trip to Auckland, a private campground near Tutukaka and a few days freedom camping in Taranaki. Everything we needed was provided, including some extra thoughtful touches. The fridge lasted for days without driving or plugging it in. Note that as advertised, there is no aircon so on hot days it's best to drive early or late in the day. Aileen was super helpful and easy to deal with.

We had another great holiday with Aileens van and really appreciated her clear communication throughout our booking, handover and return! The van was everything we needed for our two month adventure on the South Island.

We had a great adventure with Penelope! The layout was great for hanging out, eating and sleeping and the swivel table set up was a highlight!
