WOW you guys are amazing, thanks for the video, and recomendations, good to know about the tent sides and being waterproof during rain. Youve inspired us, and keeping in practical and simple as youve shown is doable.
How do you work out where yous would go to next? And what kind of budget is needed for one adult and one child (7 years old). Car and tent travel! And thanks for this video! I have taken notes 😊
I have only just clicked on your video. But look up TAWK. I got the life membership for like $45. They do partnership with camping grounds where 2 nights kids stay free. I only have 5 kids with number 6 due in 3 months. I signed up and booked 2 nights here 2 nights there and 2 nights over there for our WA and SA trip. Did you get hex pegs too if so where from? I'm after reviews on how decent the bunnings ones are and wonder if you got your hex pegs from them? Just for when you have extremely hard ground
No we haven’t run into too many tent peg/hard ground issues yet. So don’t have the hex pegs. I’ve played with have TAWK membership, but never sure if it’s going to be worthwhile for us. I would hate to say anywhere for just two nights a lot, because it takes so much effort put up and packing down. And most of my kids are classed as adults at caravan parks, so we don’t stay there much.
Do you guys go free sites with now power supplies and running water? Also food storage mainly cold food... how? What do you do for that? Regards power supply. Also how much did your fridges cost and where did you get them from?
Hi 👋 So at the moment we don’t go to non powered sites for long or much, we did when we have the trailer and have some solar… we want to get solar again, so we can. But awaiting until we get roof racks for that. Water, we have learnt to shower at local pools, after a swim. Most places have somewhere you can refill water if you want to. Wipes are always handy when your trying save on water. We have collapsible water containers for places we need water. Fridge was about $250, and can run with a solar set up and electricity. I do want to upgrade our fridge when we are able to put some of our non essentials like the toilet on the roof.
@Mathewson Family Travel Life with the fridge was off Facebook marketplace place or brand new? Also how much have you looked into the solar? Just to see if you found better deals than me. I was turned off by the extremely high prices. I have roof racks so could strap a solar panel up there easy. But the inverter plus battery packs were very expensive! We aren't doing life on the road like you guys. It's just 2 week trips here and there. A lot of the places we have been to have hard ground. In saying that we're based in WA. Hence the hex pegs question
@@emmabeer5690 fridge is only small, brand new from Jaycar, we have found them to be super helpful when it comes to solar and fridges etc. We have done the inverter thing, it just depends on what you want to use the power for. If it’s just for things like the fridge, then a battery box is the better buy.

Wow great set up guys, stay safe out there.
Wow! Awesome! Love it! Hehe so interesting seeing the different set ups 💗💞 - No trailer any more? And a new puppy?! How exciting!
Yes no trailer, new puppy and hoping for roof racks soon
