We have been motorhoming since 2004 and preveiously had a caravan. we are now on our second van having owned a CI Carrioca 5 (656) for 3 years.

Our Current van is a Adria Coral 670 sk. Absoloute luxury as far as we are concerned.

we have visited to name but a few Holland ,Belgium ,Germany ,Luxembourg ,Switzerland and Andorra. There have of course been numerous trips around England and Wales. Our favourite trips inthe UK tend to be up to Escosse, around the locks and the west coast. Most of our summers hav been spent touring in the motorhome capital of the world, France.

Our hobbies are having fun, skiing,surfing,canoeing,walking,cycling and anything else you care to mention that's fun and preferably dangerous.

Inside my bloggs you will find information on modifications we have made including, SOG system, Swivel seat, New onminster rooflights, alloy wheels, engine remap, Private plate, air suspesnion, painted bumper, and new 7 in 1 tv

How it started..












When you want to do something and it is possible to do so just do it

Well time to start with where we have been and what we have been up to since buying our motorhome.
We brought our motorhome at Christmas 2005. Purchased privately from a nice family in Wales. with only 6k on the clock and after a bit of bartering 20k switched hands.
Our first trip entailed a little jaunt in to Wales to try everything out.
As blogging is something new to me it would take me a long time to detail where we have been over the past two years so I will list them and if you require any further information about anything stated then please email me for further details.
We have been->
Scotland twice, both the west coast and the east coast, A truly stunning place with great landscape and a dream to motorhome in.
France: several times, including our favourite holiday location of the Southwest coast where surfing is ace, and the weather is to. The south of France the Dordogne, the North of France and in to the Pyrenees have all said hello to us. We have visited Andorra, Belgium Luxembourg, Holland, Germany, Switzerland as well.
If you have a motorhome and have not used it in Germany or France then you are truly missing something. The French and Germans know how to treat Motorhomes.

In the UK we have visited Cornwall, Somerset, Yorkshire and the midlands. I am sure we have been to other venues but we seem to have spent most of our longer holidays abroad.I have made some improvements to our Motorhome. Mainly I have had a power chip, and have added some alloy wheels and a personal number plate. Inside it we have personalised it with our own little trimmings and such.

I recently had an article published in Motorhome Monthly Magazine whereby I reviewed the Carrioca.
