Greetings, everyone.
Kent and Dana from Illinois in the USA. Retired from military logistics and selling our home to travel full time. We have a Jayco 325BHS 5th Wheel for our US travels but are considering coming to Europe next year and renting or buying a unit for a few months of travel there. Unfortunately, we know little of the lifestyle there and the requirements. So I am here to learn from you, experienced folks. I lived in Spain for almost 2 years in '70-71 but had no interest in motorhomes or camping then. I'll be pouring over old posts and asking novice questions. I appreciate all your patience in the meantime.

I look forward to getting to know you all.

Hi all
I'm Shaun, my wife is Billie.
We have been camping for over 20 years now.
Started in a ridge tent, moved up to frame tent, then a caravan or two.
When our girls reached teenage years we stopped using the van and sadly sold it. For 2 and a half years now we have been camping in our 1990 Toyota Hiace Devon Sunrise pop top, phew that's a mouthful!
We are now in the process of buying an Autosleeper Symbol, 03 plate on a Boxer 2.0 turbo diesel and are looking forward to many years of travels in it.
Favourite place would probably be the small Geek island of Skiathos but East Sussex comes a close second.

Drew

Hi all,

I have just come upon this thread.

I am Drew (65) married to Joyce (71).

I as an Electrical Engineer retired at 60, Joyce an accountant retired at 50.

We have come throught the ranks, i.e. ridge tent, frame tent, trailer tent, caravan and last but by no means least our 14 year old 1993 Hymer 544 that we have had since new.

Whilst camping, we have toured France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, England, Wales and Scotland.

Our other destinations have been Australia on many occasions, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Morocco, South Africa, Zambia, Peru, Equador and the Gallapigos Islands. I during the 60's travelled from Cape Town up the East Coast of Africa back to the UK overland. <
