And Around We Go - Travelling around Australia - with the Bakers!

Welcome to Dave's technical talk blog.

This blog is filled with hints, tips and modifications based on our car, our caravan, or to make our trip even more enjoyable. Below is our last 5 posts, or scroll down for more.

If you would like to ask a specific question, feel free to comment at the end of a post, or, jump onto our Contact Us page to send a message directly to us.

Just an update, after 3 years travelling full time, we arrived back home in May 2024. We have since sold the van and are adjusting well to life in a house again!  We will keep this blog up and running as it still has lots of good info and experiences in it and we are still getting comments and questions.

Happy travels, Dave and Catherine!
