That's exactly why after only 12 months here in Mildura we are putting our house on the market and getting back on the road.

A bit too cold for in in Mildura Tezza? You could always keep the house and be a winter-nomad, returning for summers?
We decided to do that when we moved to the coast but so far haven't been anywhere, we like it here.

That's the way I look at it too, Brickies. No more winters down south!

We sold up in Jimboomba in the rain, and apart for our first 6 months on the road, have been pretty much chased by rain ever since. Our fault entirely, we should have gone anti clockwise. However, had we gone anti clockwise, we probably would have been in the north for the wet! Can't win.

Have now spent two winters in the south, first one in SA, and now in WA.

That sounds like my idea of heaven :) Summer is definately not the time to be travelling in WA.

i often wonder what life is like on the road, guess im a dreamer,
my family on the other hand would want me in a small unit,
this for when my dad (89) is no longer with us..
Im half and half at this stage,guess thats why i can never leave this site
alone, even with its ups n downs.
only thing id miss of home would be my computer room,.,slash office
how can i do that in a motor home ie for my flight sim stuff..

Sarg....a bit cooooool. That's an understatement... its brass monkey weather right now!! We've had enough of the cold here in Canberra and just this week listed our house so we can head off to enjoy some warm weather in the not too distant future.

Obviously the right time to travel depends on where your home base is (if any) and personal preference. For me, summer (the wet season here) is the time to be home, where there is air-conditioning and I can catch up on the gardening. Mid autumn to late spring is the time to be in my camper van and hit the road!
