off to pastures new.
talking about some new fun things around here today !
maybe you remember this post... about new ways and new possibilities
and maybe if you already read a few more posts around here,
you noticed we really like travelling;).

we want and always have our tiny home with us,

we now always have our home so to say around the corner,
which for us makes travelling with a toddler (and maybe more babys someday:)
a whole lot easier.
so I thought it would be fun sharing a few sneak peeks of our caravan
and our process in doing it up, etc.

I would always encourage families to save a little money and go and get one if they
like camping and travelling.

distinguish from family to family, just according to their preferences and requirements.
In our case, we wanted to keep everything quite easy and economical.

deal with big repairs of entire mobile home cars/engines, plus there are
no amounts of taxes for caravans and such to pay here in Germany.
