Excerpt
Much of the pleasure of touring is in the planning and delicious anticipation of the trip and plans can be very sketchy or quite detailed.
The great appeal of RV travel to most people is the free and easy, go where you like, stop when you want and stay where you will, lifestyle. No other holiday offers so much freedom of choice and opportunities for ‘doing your own thing’ but even so there are things that need to be decided before you leave home to make sure your trip is hassle free.
They say that money is the root of all evil but whether or not that is true, money certainly plays a large part in the planning of an extended holiday. You must have sufficient resources for daily living expenses, fuel costs, caravan park fees and incidentals plus a reserve for emergencies.
