I wanted to show you the comfortable interior of our eco tourer slip stream caravan that Reg and I call home for half of each year. 

I love its sleek easy clean surfaces, and the fact that it is the shower and toilet model, and I have my own ladies vanity wash basin and don’t have to use the kitchen sink for my personal needs.

I love the comfort and luxury of natural leather trim seating and that the kitchen table folds back to a small bench which can give me sufficient floor space to do my exerciese while watching an exercise DVD. 

There are a lot of storage areas, a huge amount of storage space under the bed, just as well because during the last three trips I have had to carry several lots of clothing, the size I currently wear and one size smaller to come home in, LOL, it’s been fun discarding something that is now too big for me at every town we stay a week in.  The discarding is slowing down now but I still have my next size, I hope to go home in, clothes stored under the bed.

I love that the TV in our caravan is suspended out of the way, from the ceiling. It pivots so you can watch it from the back of the van, in the double bed or from the dining area at the front of the van.   We are fully self sufficient, I can watch my exercise DVD’s powered by the solar power panel that is mounted on the roof.

With TV’s becoming slimmer it’s not always safe leaving them self supporting, we have already had an accident with one, Reg accidently dropped the one I bought for our summer retreat home in northern Victoria, he reacted to try to protect the TV and the floor and put his leg out to break the fall and we ended up with Reg’s ankle and the TV both broken and a dint in the floor.  It didn’t matter about the TV or the floor but it set Reg back considerably, his needing to rest his leg for months, he has fully recovered now, thankfully.

I bought him another, even better TV.
I do need to search for a secure tv stand so we don’t have any more accidents with these new, slim designed, television sets.

Maybe when you have retired, Jadey, you will be able to join us gray nomads and enjoy travelling for half the year. :-). It is fun, best of both worlds.
Thanks for commenting on my blog posts :-)

Cheers Kathy
