And in the beginning there was a motorhome

......actually a small, orange, converted VW T4. It was too small for our plan, 2 adults and 1 dog, to travel through Europe for 1 year.

So we bought a small but fine motorhome, tested it, made various technical modifications, made the interior more homely and after almost 1.5 years we reached the point where we could say: 'yeah, now it's time.'

Of course it was a difficult decision to turn our lives upside down for a moment, to leave our social environment behind, to buy a motorhome and just get away. Okay no, sleeping on it for 2 nights was actually enough.

In between, the idea for this blog arose, because since our plan is not a short vacation, but a break from everyday life, without a fixed route and planning, there was also a great demand from the people back home to keep them updated about our actions.

So now we're starting our blog where we want to share highlights and experiences of our time off with you from time to time.

At the end of our preparations, there was one last and probably the most important item on our to-do list: the 'We're going away' celebration with our families, friends, acquaintances, companions, colleagues,..... in short, the most wonderful people in this world, WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!
