🌟 Campervan Essentials 🌟

Campervanning looks very different for many people - some prefer a little more luxury, while others are happy with very minimal equipment. I would like to think that we sit somewhere in between those extremes and pride ourselves on only buying and storing things in the van that we consider are essential for making life easier on the road as a family.

🌟➡️ NEW on the BLOG - Our Campervan Essentials! (Link in bio) All recommendations are items we have tried and tested over a considerable period of time, organised within the format of answering questions we have been asked recently.
▪️How can you keep your van clean and tidy on the road?
▪️How do you prepare meals when you are travelling?
▪️How do you manage to travel with children and a dog?
▪️How do you manage to fit everything that you need into such a small space?
▪️What items have you found really useful that I might not have thought of?
▪️What items do you find really useful when travelling with children?

If you could only choose THREE essentials in your campervan, what would they be?

#SCU 40:

Edinburgh, Scotland

eh-din-BRUH

Edinburgh has been the capital of Scotland since 1437, when it replaced Scone. It has a medieval Old Town and elegant Georgian New Town with gardens and neoclassical buildings. Looming over the city is Edinburgh Castle, home to Scotland’s crown jewels and the Stone of Destiny, used in the coronation of Scottish rulers.

1. Edinburgh is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and over 75% of its buildings are listed.
2. The Edinburgh FRINGE festival is the largest arts festival in the world.
3. The Harry Potter movies were filmed here.
4. The world's one and only knighted penguin lives at Edinburgh zoo.
5. It is the greenest city in the UK.
6. The Edinburgh Castle sits on an extinct volcano.
7. Edinburgh’s landscape was formed by a glacier.
8. At one o'clock every day, a gun is shot from Edinburgh castle.

AD | You see the little wooden hut to the right of this photo? That's our own personal washblock that comes with our pitch!

We've got a shower, loo, kitchen sink, and a big fridge/freezer ALL TO OURSELVES! The height of bongo luxury 🙌How cool is that?! I've only ever come across pitches like this in Namibia.

We're now in Roussillon on the south coast. This is another #eurocampindependent site, but very different to the last one - this place is HUGE with so much going on! We generally lean towards smaller sites, but over the years we've tried a couple of bigger sites out and they've always been a huge success - mostly because the boys love the onsite waterparks! 💦

Hello 👋 We've had so many new followers since we started travelling again, so I thought I'd do a little re-introduction as it's been a looooooooong while since the last time I did this 😘

🚐 I'm Jenny, Mum of the Lynn family. I work as a travel blogger (yes, that is actually a real job that earns you money 😜) - I love the flexibility it provides me around our family and the travel opportunities it brings.

🚐 With Jay (hubby) and our two boys (Arthur 7, Ezra 6) we live in the Peak District 🇬🇧. I also run peakdistrictkids - which has become the go-to website for families exploring the UK's oldest national park 🥾 and the website receives over 180k page views per month.

🚐 As a family we love epic adventures. We have lived in India, trekked the Himalayas, and traversed Africa in a Land Rover.

🚐 We jumped on the pandemic VAN-waggon in June '20 and bought our Mazda Bongo camper from eBay for £7k. We were supposed to be taking a family gap year and travelling overland from London to Sydney last year - a trip Jay and I did back in 2007 🙄. But we absolutely love our Bongo; he's part of the family now 🥰.

🚐 We are all Aussie citizens as Jay and I used to live in Sydney. The boys have never even visited, and it's currently the top country they want to travel to. One day...

🚐 I've never liked sea food. And when I decided to become vegetarian over three years ago, it was a huge relief to just say to people that I'm vegetarian, rather than explain I don't like sea food 🙈. Although I still sometimes eat the boys left over fish fingers 🤷‍♀️.

🚐 Oh and we're currently spending the summer travelling around France in our Bongo and having the best time ever 🥰🇫🇷.

Right, I think that's enough waffling on about myself 🤣.

Big hugs,
Jenny x

My FB memories are killing me at the mo 😭. This one popped up this morning of Ez in #Bangkok getting stuck into some noodles. He must be 16 months old here 💚.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Anyways, hope everyone is doing ok? I've been a bit quiet on this account as I've been focusing on peakdistrictkids, closer to home, and we've barely been out in the #Bongo (except for school runs 🤷‍♀️)...⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And we had the weirdest realisation this week... something happened that was totally foreign to us... Jay has annual leave days outstanding for this year that he needs to take 🤣. That has NEVER happened to us in the 20 years we've been together. 😱⁣⁣

The simplicity and innocence of playing with kids in Tanzania on a Sunday morning is one of my favorite memories of 2022.

Adventure after adventure, a lucky penny always finds it’s way into this little traveler’s hands! 🌎✈️
So far he’s found a lucky penny in 5 countries and twice in Madrid. 🇵🇪🇮🇹🇫🇷🇪🇸🇳🇱🇨🇭

He found this one over the weekend under a bench near a play area just outside our house.

✨ I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees. - Henry David Thoreau ✨⁣
⁣
Do you ever feel this way? I often feel so tiny after time in the forest, realizing how minuscule our place on this earth really is, but what massive damage we have done. ⁣
⁣
Although, I get the point of this quote.. mentally, my heart is full and my mind is clear after time in nature.⁣
⁣
But this is me with poetry.. I’ve never been so great with it because I am very literal. However, I am learning...Cian and I have started a new homeschool ritual of Poetry Teatime. It’s been a fun way to get out of my comfort zone and open up new forms of reading for Cian. ⁣
⁣
I never even knew that he had an interest in poems, but he’s really taken to it. I bought a few books for kids, but what he enjoys more are the classic poets. So many of their writings focus on nature, which is where his love is as well. He’s even begun nature journaling every time we go somewhere - and it’s always a poem. ⁣
⁣
Don’t mind me, I’m just over here adoring what homeschool has brought to us! ⁣
⁣
Every day this child surprises me with his interest in things, his love of learning and excitement to explore all that the world has on offer. ❤️⁣
⁣

We have slipped into #vanlife very easily and these summer days feel so good in our #mazdabongo 👍⁣
⁣
Days have been spent in the pool, or on long cycle rides to beaches or a chateau. We've been playing it by ear and just seeing how each day unfolds. ⁣
⁣
It's been the break that we didn't realise how much we needed, and us parents can feel the batteries recharging 😘⁣

And the two weeks of quarantine has begun... wish us luck 😜⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We arrived back into the UK yesterday and stayed at my parents' place in Kent to break up the journey north. The overnight stopover is allowed by the government and my parents are away in their camper at the mo.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We filled in the online government COVID forms before arriving to Calais, and were asked at UK border security if we had done them, although they weren't actually checked. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Then as soon as Jay has finished work, we'll do the final leg back home to the Peak District today 💚. ⁣⁣

Located 30 mins north of Winton town centre, this working cattle and sheep station is also a campers oasis in the heart of outback Queensland!

It boasts 12 massive lush green sites with water access to all and power for 1. With the homestead and camping lawn sitting at a high point on the station, you're gifted with amazing horizon views for both golden hours of the day so have your camera ready.. Or.. swipe along to check out a few of my clicks 🙂

So this is 'winter' in Spain ☀️ It's perfect hiking weather 👌🥾

Huge thanks to greengirlgetaways for telling me about the superb coastal footpath from Vilanova to Sitges. We were planning to go to Sitges today, but had no idea about the walking route until I saw her message this morning!

It's 8km along fantastic rocky cliffs and sandy coves with a regular train whizzing past on the other side.

And once we arrived in Sitges - WOWSERS! What a stunner of a town.

A train and bus then brought us back to our campsite, where the boys STILL had energy for the jumping pillow 😳. Arthur's fitbit (Xmas pressie) has totalled 29,296 steps today 🤪.
