hi Everyone, I love reading all your experiences. I bought a Ford Transit 1999 that has previously been converted to a campervan in April this year and has been fixing it up since. Mostly cosmetics. I'm finally ready for my first trip this weekend. Planning on heading out about 3 - 4 hours from Brisbane - making sure it's travelling all OK. I'm planning on working - hopefully at caravan parks from early next year. Once the youngest child leaves for uni at end of January. I am so excited - have already got rid of most stuff - it's amazing how little stuff we really need Will see you out there:) Susan

Good on you . Take your time . I found slowing down the hardest!! Keep in touch .,

Have a great time away from the usual grind and enjoy your new toy Susan but,



Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

Thanksð Just an awesome feeling being on the road

Hi Everyone I am finally on a longer trip. Left Brisbane yesterday and aiming to be in Nelligen, NSW by Sunday. I am in Port Macquarie tonight and travelling through Sydney tomorrow. A bit nervous as i have never driven in Sydney! I am currently studying the map and tryimg to determine the easiest road. Should i go via Wollongong or Goulburn? I would prefer to avoid steep mountain passes! Thanks Susan

Goulburn is on the Hume Hwy so good Road. Wollongong is the pretty route but will involve a steep descent unless you plan going through Sydney to get on the Princes Highway. Either way have a great trip.

Thanks - i will just take it slow I guess
