🌟 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?

Give me a van amongst the gum trees 🌿🎶 💕For almost two weeks we’ve been roaming around in Yolo our Apollo, and I feel like I’ve finally got everything in its place and we’ve settled in 🎉. It’s so easy! I mean, I have to cook and do laundry and connect cables and grey water hoses AND empty the toilet but hey, apparently that’s the reality of #vanlife 🤣🤣 What I Iove the most is: 👍🏻being able to move whenever we want to and that everything comes with us - like today, instead of having lunch and then doing the White Sands Walk along the beaches here in Jervis Bay, we just drove there and made lunch and ate it in the bush before we wandered the beaches. Very cool!! 👍🏻The van is COSY! We have heating and it’s so warm and the bed is comfy too (you guys know my back and joints are old-lady-painful and they’ve been great this trip). 👍🏻I filled up the van completely with diesel a few days ago after a week and a half of driving and it cost $67 - nice surprise!! 👍🏻Caravan parks are fun - we’ve met some really nice people... but someone also had a go at me for my slow van parking skills which I believe are bloody good so 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣🤣 Dont worry, I snapped back hahah. 👍🏻The fridge is keeping my bubbles SUPER COLD. #important

We’re heading west soon - Emmie now has a fibreglass cast but can’t do much with it - kayaking and water sports are banned so we are going inland. Omg EXCITED! Let us know if you’re around Bathurst, Dubbo, Orange, Canowindra, Cowra or anywhere nearby! 😍😍😍 apollomotorhomeholidays #Apollopartner

Hello 20k followers 🥳🎈💃

I try and ignore numbers on the gram, but with a fair few followers over these past months, I thought it would be nice to acknowledge this milestone and re-introduce ourselves 👋.

Based in the UK's Peak District, we are Jenny (Mum), Jay (Dad), Arthur (9) and Ezra (7) and we have travelled the world as much as we can since the boys were born.

We've travelled much of Africa, Asia and Europe, and highlights include:

🇮🇳 living in India for a year
🇳🇵trekking to Poon Hill in the Himalayas
🎒 backpacking Sri Lanka and Thailand
🌍 101 days overlanding sub-Saharan Africa in a Land Rover with roof tents
🇫🇷 6 weeks travelling France in our #mazdabongo
🇲🇦 4 months living and travelling in Morocco

If you've been following us for a while, you'll know that we really do maximise our travel time around the boys' schooling and have never seen age as a barrier for taking our kids anywhere. Plus we always have big trip plans up our sleeve, we just can't help it 😅 - we feel that SEAsia is calling us this year 🤞. Adventure travel for us isn't a one off experience, it's a life choice.

Whether you've been following us since we moved to India or have joined from recent European travels, thanks for following our little squares of family adventure. Your continued support means I have a job that I love, and I also love being able to inspire and connect with like-minded parents who also want to burst bubbles and show their kids the world.

I'd love to know where we were in the world when you first started following us!

Lots of love,
Jenny x

THE STATE OF PUNJAB: We have arrived (back) in Punjab - it’s been a while! We visited this beautiful state more than 18 months ago and it feels exciting to be back. Albeit it’s taken a few days rest after the buzz - and ups and downs - of farewelling our dear Group Trips; but there is something very special about this holy city of Amritsar - and we can’t wait to show you!

And how special is our room view from the window hyattregencyasr?!

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

THE GOLDEN TEMPLE LANGAR:
The Golden Temple - Sri Harmandir Sahib - is not only one of the most spiritual sites in Sikhism; but the temple is home to the biggest Community Kitchen — Guru Ramdas Langar — in the world…

The kitchen is staffed majority by volunteers who donate their time to cook, wash and serve 100,000 free meals DAILY. And in the weekends they can serve up to 200,000 per day!

There are two halls that host around 5,000 individuals all at once. Likewise, there is no separation: the kitchen is open and free to all.

The menu changes daily but today we saw vegetables, a vegetarian curry, daal, rice and rice pudding, chai, drinking water and chapati.

We hope our photos do justice to this incredible service!

❄️ We got tons of snow here over the weekend and it inspired me to write about our trip to Rovaniemi, Finland 🇫🇮 this past fall. ⁠
⁠
I had every intention of keeping it short and sweet—I even started off talking about my son's super cute reindeer stuffy that he got while we were out there. ⁠
⁠
But then my “quick” post turned into a complete guide for a DIY weekend in Lapland.⁠ 🤷🏻‍♀️ it’s like I can’t help myself.
⁠
One minute I was talking about stuffed animals and the next thing I know is that I'm doing a deep dive into our trip and spilling it all.⁠
⁠
✅ Where we stayed⁠
✅ What we ate⁠
✅ What we wore⁠
✅ Where we went⁠
✅ What we did⁠
⁠
You name it; I wrote about it. Check it out now—🔗 in bio, then look for this pic. ⁠
⁠
As always, I hope you find the blog post helpful. Feel free to ask questions, just in case I missed something! ⁠
⁠
⫸ ⫸ Is Lapland on your list yet or have you had the pleasure of visiting already? ⁠

THANK YOU: As travellers we are used to saying goodbye to places and people. But today as we farewelled the last of our second group we realised just how incredibly special the bonds and friendships that we have formed over these Group Trips are.

Our journey onwards and the streets of New Delhi feel significantly quieter already without our Away with the Steiners whānau!

We had a dream to share the joy of travel and family and learning - and connecting with the people that make our journeys so special - and this last month and these two very special groups have been exactly that.

We have much more to share and more stories to come; but for now from our family a special THANK YOU.

From Gavin, Sarah, Harry and Oscar x

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS?
We haven’t left India yet but we can’t WAIT for 2024 and to be back again! Not only are we looking forward to another Family Group Trip and Adult Trip in Rajasthan - but we have fallen in love with Punjab and have even more amazing connections and people to meet and share here in Amritsar!

So - hands up who wants to hear more?!

What are your plans for 2024?

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 🤪.

Oh, Lapland, what a beautiful and magical place you are! ⁠
⁠
We just came back from yet another place I never thought I'd ever visit: Finland.⁠
⁠
And it was magical. Like, an actual ❄️ winter❄️ wonderland. ⁠
⁠
Apparently, there are a lot of tour groups that put packages together for a trip like this, but we did it all DIY.⁠
⁠
We flew out (via Ryanair from Brussels to Rovaniemi, Finland) on a Friday morning and came back on Monday afternoon, so it was a short and sweet vacay, but we did all the things in that short amount of time, and even found time to rest and relax a bit, too.⁠
⁠
On this trip we: ⁠
❄️ crossed over and under the Arctic Circle ⁠
🎅🏻 MET (THE) SANTA! ⁠
🎄 and went to Elf school at santaparkfin ⁠
🐟 ate the best salmon of my life ⁠
🍽 also ate reindeer 🦌 and bear 🐻...oh my!)⁠
🛷 went on a reindeer sleigh ride ⁠
😍 saw the northern lights ⁠
🥾 walked/played on a frozen lake⁠
😇 made snow angels⁠
🧖‍♀️ relaxed in a sauna ⁠
🔥 made and ate s’mores ⁠
⁠
The cherry on top was that my mom came along for the trip. She's been out here visiting and jumped at the chance to go when I found tickets months ago. ⁠
⁠
We didn't stay in the city or at the ever-popular Santa Claus Village; instead, we stayed about 45 minutes north in a fantastic (but remote) AirBnB nestled next to a lake—complete with a rotating 365º hut, a sunroom, a sauna, and reindeer 🦌 for neighbors! ⁠
⁠
⫸⫸ Have you been to Lapland, or is this a bucket list destination for you?! ⁠
⁠
Like always, a blog post is coming and I'm sharing more in my stories/highlights. Happy to answer any questions you might have in the meantime! ⁠

Happy Wednesday, Guys!

I hope you had an eggcellent Easter weekend and enjoying the Easter Break.

This Easter, we decided to book a #staycation in North #Devon for the long bank holiday weekend, and we couldn't have picked a better place.

TheMoleResort currently has 15 new three- and four-bedroom luxury lodges. We stayed in one of the three-bedroom lodges and were blown away by the beautiful decor and spaciousness. The lodge was modern and extensively equipped for all our needs, including a full kitchen with all the amenities, a hot tub, and even a BBQ outside for alfresco dining.

We loved the bi-folding doors that opened onto the full-length patio, making it perfect for entertaining and letting in natural light. Two bedrooms had sliding doors onto the deck, making the lodge feel even more spacious and bright.

#TheMoleResort is also perfect for families travelling with children, as each room can easily split into two single beds. We love having our privacy when possible, and the boys loved having their rooms with their beds. Plus, our lodge had an ensuite bathroom with a master and another family bathroom with a shower and a tub.

One of the best parts of our stay was the extra activities available at the resort, including an Easter Egg Hunt and an onsite petting zoo hosted by ExmoorZoo. The boys loved both, and we also had access to several different activities on the #HighbullenEstate, including:
- Indoor Swimming Pool
- Gym and Gym Classes
- Tennis And Pickle-ball
- Footgolf and Disc Golf
- Cycling
- Croquet
- Football

If you want to explore outside the Mole Resort, it's ideally located for easy access to Westward Ho! Beach and Exmoor Zoo, both of which are great options for young and old alike.

Overall, we had a fantastic time at The #MoleResort and didn't feel the need to leave the grounds at all. It's the perfect choice for groups, couples, and families looking for a UK countryside staycation. Don't miss out on this gem!

You can find more details/ photos of our stay in my recent blog. Link in bio.

ABOUT SIKHISM: Although we have visited Amritsar before we have learnt so much in the last 48 hours about Sikhism!

Sikhism is an Indian religion - and a philosophy - that originated in the Punjab region at the end of the 15th century. It is one of the most recently founded major religious groups and stands at fifth-largest worldwide, with about 25–30 million adherents (known as Sikhs).

Golden Temple Amritsar 🇮🇳

World's Largest Community Kitchen
Usually, all the meals of the langar in Golden Temple are hand-made, but the Gurdwara does have an automatic roti-making machine, with a capacity of delivering 25,000 rotis per hour, which is used only during extreme rush hours. The temple uses nearly 12,000kg flour, 1,500kg rice, 13,000kg lentils, and up to 2,000kg vegetables daily. Nearly 5,000kg of vegetables are .

We've been trapped in a freezing snow globe lately, and it's making me miss sunny and colorful Portugal big time. ⁠
⁠
🌞...thankfully we have a trip planned for Morocco next month, so I just need to make it a few more weeks until we see can bask in that sunshine again. ⁠
⁠
We're also heading to Scotland this spring, but I'm packing our rain jackets and umbrellas ☔️ for that trip 😂. ⁠

Feeling a bit homesick for our cozy trailer, but glad to be back near these Blue Ridge Mountains.
•
Alex is in California finishing up a travel nurse contract while I solo parent on the East Coast and kickstart our next big project. We are used to living in such close quarters together so this separation is especially difficult. Looking forward to having our family reunited and enjoying more scenes like this together 😍.

His papa is back!!! Which means matching overalls and zlandbrand hats - because a big helper needs to dress for the job. We are busy, busy, busy over here with an airstream restoration AND a van conversion but I love seeing our driveway packed with fun projects.

Tucking our home into the giant redwood forest and crafting with driftwood collected from the river in the “backyard”. Some things about this lifestyle are incredibly challenging, our lights were flickering from the lack of solar and dead batteries, but we trade a few modern comforts for a lot of magical days.

THANK YOU: The biggest of thank you to our amazing families that travelled with us through India - Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh - these past 11 DAYS on our INDIA Group Trip.

It has been hard to find the words to truly portray how special of a shared adventure it was…

But; it was everything we dreamt of and MUCH MORE!

We have watched as fears were overcome; bucket-lists were ticked off; friendships formed and families bonds grew stronger.

India is a truly humbling country and it feels like a real privelege to have this time to learn and share together.

Thank you myfathersbarber sarahclarebrown deidreputt bbq_butcher

And THANK YOU INDIA!
