What about the painting of the apartment? We worked really hard all weekend, but now we're done! Every wall and every ceiling - everything is white. Yesterday the estate agent and the photographer were here and took new pictures. Now we'll see if this more neutral look goes down better with the buyers ...

As you may know, we are in the process of selling our apartment. We are taking one step at a time towards the long journey we plan to make next year. The first step is to sell our apartment and move to something smaller and simpler.
Read moreOur apartment does not look like others. We've decorated it in turn-of-the-century style and now we're selling it! Not because we don't like it, but because next year we're going on a longer trip. For that we plan to get a smaller and simpler accommodation.
Read moreHow did we get a motorhome? We read a post on the blog Seniors Speculate about when they got a motorhome, and were inspired to tell our story. Neither of us have had a motorhome or caravan before and neither of us grew up camping. So how did we end up getting a motorhome?
Read moreWe've fitted handrails to the motorhome. Of course, Peter didn't stop at installing guide rails at the back of the motorhome, but the front has also been given a facelift. Peter has installed both fog lights and LED lights in the grill. Now we will be visible in the dark!

Read moreAt this time of year, all the different brands and models of motorhomes are highlighted. It's not easy to choose! We looked around at many different motorhomes before we bought ours. In the end it was a Adria Coral 660 sp from 2007 (although it may not be easy to see).
Read moreWe continue the story of what we've done to the motorhome since we bought it in autumn 2008... We couldn't settle for lights on the outside of the car, but wanted some lighting inside as well. LED lights are really good in a motorhome because they use so little power.
