    Great video. I use double sided clear sticky pads, they are more convenient than velcro as you can wash them to clean them and move them anywhere, amazing, especially to hold down anything on tables, dashboard, desk etc.
    That bug zapper is a great idea, thanks for sharing.
    The peg idea to keep the towel on the rail, very handy, thank you.

      Thanks Leanne. We have almost finished the lap, just have Tassie to go. Can’t believe it’s been 3 years. What are you up to these days?

      @nigelandsueadventures have moved into a unit and hating it. Looking at caravans and hitting the road again in the new year heading north.
      Miss the freedom to much 🙂

    Some excellent tips there. I use a number of those in our Motorhome. I think rolling your clothes makes them more softly and evenly creased as opposed to folding which makes more hard creases in certain sections. I will have to try a couple of tips you’ve suggested that I’m not using yet. Thanks for the tips. 🤗😊

    Hi Nigel and Sue, we really love your videos and watch religiously each week. Thank you & please keep them coming.
    We’re just in the process of our Motorhome build and wanted to ask which brand of under cupboard water filtration did you & Nigel go with. Thank you.

    • @nigelandsueadventures
      @nigelandsueadventures  11 месяцев назад +2

      Thanks so much Charles, we are glad you are enjoying our journey. What sort of Motohome are you building? Are you in Australia or overseas? The undersink filter we use is a Stefani, it comes with the drinking water tap. Here's a link: bit.ly/undersinkfilter

      Hi Nigel and Sue, yes we’re in Australia ( Melbourne ) Our motorhome is an Avan M5. We get it in March next year. We can’t wait to visit some of the locations we’ve seen you both visit. Thanks so much for sending through the link. Take care the both of you and wishing you both a merry Christmas from my wife Smaro & I 😊

    Great tips. I think we have picked up most of them along the way and love the packing cubes too! I will mention an addition - we had the inline filter but a fellow traveller (@AdventurePumps - he has years of irrigation experience!) told us that we should make sure the filter has silver in it to kill the bugs that it filters - otherwise you create a little breeding ground for them😬
