Today has been all about the camper. We have spent the day tidying, sorting out the storage, cleaning, generally moving things from one place to another (and back again) and making it look pretty 😍

We have FINALLY booked some campsites too!

Adventure awaits 🤞🏻🤞🏻💫?? 🏕🚐

Have you booked anywhere yet or are you holding off for now?

Beach days 🌊 We managed to hit the road early

Beach days 🌊

We managed to hit the road early at the weekend and headed to the beach to blow the cobwebs away.

Much needed and the sun came out for us. The puppy LOVED it and the kids too. I can’t tell you how much I have missed the sea.

So I have a question for you ......what is your favourite beach within a couple of hours of Staffordshire/ Cheshire?

Do you head over to North Wales to get your dose of vitamin sea, or do you head to a beach in Lancashire, Merseyside or Cumbria?

If you don’t live locally where is your favourite UK beach?

Hit me with your favourite beaches to visit ⬇️

Today -1st May is Staffordshire day We love where

Today -1st May is Staffordshire day

We absolutely love;

I have had some wonderful opportunities over the last few years and I am eternally grateful for them. When our adventures had to stop over the last year you stuck with us and our little grid. So many of you have stopped by to say hi, check in, message and chat.

What does that mean to you?

It’s so easy to spend the days rushing around, squeezing as much into the day as possible isn’t it ?

I think we are all guilty of that.

Even when we are off on our campervan adventures we always try to find a little time for ourselves. Be it a bike ride, a walk, a swim, candles and a cuppa, or sitting in the camping chair wrapped in a blanket watching the kids running around having the BEST time.

@iamscentered have created a wide range of aromatherapy products that are portable (great for travel and vanlife). I also love that the packaging has been carefully created so that it can be repurposed, reused or recycled.

So this is a little reminder to Stop. Inhale. Reset.

How do you take time out to relax and recharge ?

I love the chance to slow down.....

It can take a while to shower one by one, or to wander over to the washroom to just wash the dishes. Setting the bed up takes time, as does making coffee or dinner.

In all honesty everything takes a while 😆 it’s impossible to rush anything !

But vanlife encourages you to embrace slow living.

It gives you the opportunity to ditch the routine for a while, stop.... breathe and watch the sunset (whilst the kiddies run around crazy in their onesies and bare feet)

That’s sunshine to me 💕

What do you love?

➡️do you pack a duvet?
➡️ or a sleeping bag?

We always pack sleeping bags for the kids in the #poptop roof and then a duvet for the bed.

@finebeddingco have sent us this gorgeous Night Owl coverless duvet to try and it seems perfect for both home and travel.

No more faffing with putting the bedding on in a small space and it can be washed in the washing machine, oh and dries in less than 90 - 120 minutes. Perfect for vanlife. It also comes in a handy drawstring bag so packs really well. I’ve added some photos on my stories. It’s a winner.
