Hello fellow Nomads We have only recently started to travel full time in our very first van and we have been debating what "Name" to call our rig. Does your rig have a name? Do you tag / mark your rig so others can identify you? As this is my very first post, please be gentle with me! Cheers - Weg

Was reading an interview in the Tasmanian Examiner that camping fees are to be introduced for camping at the camps at the Bay Of Fires who have traditionally camped on the east coast for free. Also other council run free camps will come into line with fees through out Tasmania.
