We started our journey ten years ago, with a two man tent and a Toyota Yaris. We packed up the car, got on board the freight ferry at Rosslare and headed for Cherbourg. We spent 3 weeks travelling around Europe, in all weathers, with just the basic rations to keep us going.
We had some amazing experiences, with just our map and no specific route plan. We came across some real gems, and some real dumps!
A few years and a two year old later, we searched on ebay for a suitable tent. A 3 bedroom monstrosity! We packed up and enjoyed travelling around Ireland on weekend breaks before packing up and heading for France.
We had a completely different experience tenting as a family compared to a couple, and while it was different, it was just as positive.
And then came the big purchase. A motorhome. Now with 2 children in tow, a motorhome seemed a more practical option, especially with the Irish climate! We also liked the idea of having a ready to go holiday outside the front door whenever the mood took us.
We bought an older model, and refurbished and updated it, and enjoyed weekends and holidays around Ireland, the UK and Wales. And now, one year later, we are selling it and upgrading for a newer model.
So we look forward to sharing our experiences and advice, as well as making some new discoveries of our own!!
