Re-Arranging Our Caravan Around.


Before we set off on our big trip, we did several modifications to our caravan.
These Were:

  • Air-conditioner

















  • Bike rack
  • Metal mesh on the A-frame to store things while travelling













2 water tanks (85L and 50L) installed by a friend. The water tanks were connected to a hand pump, enabling us to have water while free-camping.


























  • 2 spare tires for our caravan on the rear bar which hosted our bike rack.


  • A metal rod for hanging clothes


  • Removed the electric stove and range-hood on the bench

After we had set off we did several more modifications to make the caravan more live-able in.  
  • In Armidale we removed our table. It is now replaced with a bi-fold table.



  • In Cloncurry we rotated the bed 90 degrees. It required us to also move a set of drawers. 
  • In Darwin we ripped out our kitchen and replaced it. The old kitchen had got moisture in it and was rotting away. We also didn't have a lot of storage place.






  • A pipe on the back of the caravan for awning poles, fishing rods e.t.c


    • What about you? Whats your best modification you ever did while travelling? What are your tips about modifying before you go away?
