Dolomites – Part II
Reluctantly leaving the Passo Giau I was aiming for a relatively quieter area of the Dolomites for the next days but arriving at my planned park up I found that it had been taken over by construction workers. So after a re-think I decided to call the campsite that I had pre-booked for the weekend

Dolomites – Part I
Finally the time had come to be back on the road and the departure time had finally arrived for both of us. Unfortunately we were heading off in completely different directions, and continents… To begin our trip Leela was heading stateside for two weeks and whilst she was there I would make my way slowly

Reversing Sensors (to stop accidents).
Last week I began what I thought would be the simple and straightforward job of installing rear parking sensors to the camper. Little did I know that this three hour job would take me nearly two weeks to complete… The sensors were from Amazon and cost €45 for 4 sensors, power module and remote speaker.

Tantra – Follow Your Curiosity
Over the last 20 years my lifestyle and thought process has altered dramatically. After leaving professional Sport in my mid 30’s there was a great void in my life and a realisation that there was a lot more to it than high steaks sporting competition.

Toni Peter – Peter Toni
Last year we visited the wine region in Styria a couple of times and over the weekend we decided to re-visit the lovely Buschenschank of Toni Peter. Now you would think with two first names that he would be a male hairdresser but this lovely gentleman had been running his independent vineyard and restaurant his

Naturism – A lifestyle choice
Nudism: The act of not wearing clothes in a public space. Naturism: A philosophy and a way of life. Naturism is for me most definitely a lifestyle choice of practising non-sexual nudity both in private and in public places where it is either legal or accepted by others. It also refers to the cultural movement

A strange summer
This year is not going quite as planned. But hopefully with the summer here and with another operation safely behind me, I am back on track and we are making alternative plans. A few weeks ago we managed 4 days at Valata resort in Istria (diary entry) and as we have already written an extensive

Internet on the move
Being connected online seems to be the number one priority now with #vanlifers so that they can share their #digitalcontent whilst being a #digitalnomad. Vanlife is a strange word to use for a rich Zoomer who has been #vanlifing for a matter of minutes. But nevertheless we find it important also these days as nobody

Nouvelle – Aquitaine
Leaving Paris we had a nightmare with the Sat-Nav. In all fairness it was the first time in a month it completely let us down and we spent a frustrating hour or so just getting to the outskirts of the City. But once we had changed a few settings that had mysteriously reset themselves we
Not all those who wonder are lost…
