Divorced dad says selling house for 'midlife crisis motorhome' is best thing that happened to me

A father who moved into a motorhome after a divorce says it is the best thing he has ever done. Ian Reeves said he now enjoyed a completely new lifestyle where he travelled the UK, had open air breakfasts and met fellow owners. The 57-year-old said the decision was the latest during his "midlife crisis" and he had not looked back.

Originally from the Wirral, his business took a downturn during the pandemic but his downsized lifestyle meant he could continue to work remotely while exploring the open road. He became attracted to the freedom of a nomadic lifestyle travelling up and down the country, and said he enjoyed visiting areas all across the North West.

Speaking to the Liverpool Echo, Mr Reeves said: “When I turned 50 I bought my motorhome, I went through a midlife crisis. At 51 I did my motorbike test, at 52 I went paragliding — it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me.
