When you’re living the slow lane life and parked up at a caravan park for weeks or even months, your caravan tyres are probably the last thing on your mind.

Because nothing says “festive spirit” like trying to fit a Christmas tree into 12 square metres.

When you’re living the Slow Lane Life, every day brings something worth capturing — a sunrise, a braai fire, a bird on a branch, or that moment your camping neighbour realises they packed everything except the kettle.

Campsite etiquette isn’t just about being polite—it’s about keeping the peace, maintaining good vibes, and ensuring you don’t become that person… you know, the one everyone whispers about while braaiing.

Living long-term in a caravan is one of life’s greatest joys… until you open a cupboard and discover that your neatly packed plates have turned into a porcelain avalanche.

“What hobbies are perfect for caravanners living on the road long-term?” Good news: plenty!Here are the best hobbies for caravanners — fun, practical, affordable, and designed for the Slow Lane Life.

Before unpacking everything, take a moment to plan your space. ✔ Where does the sun rise and set?✔ Where’s the shade at midday?✔ Which direction is the wind usually blowing?✔ Where are the noisy neighbours? (Hint: If you see six kids on bicycles, keep driving.)

Because your caravan is many things… but a storage unit is not one of them.

Can you really live full-time in a caravan in South Africa? Spoiler alert: Yes, you can — and plenty of people already are.

Whether you’re a full-time caravanner or an extended holiday maker, learning how to make your rand go further means more time exploring and less time stressing.

Deciding to live in a caravan long-term is part romance, part logistics — a lifestyle that gives you freedom and tiny-house simplicity, but also demands smart choices up front.

Yes, your whole home might be smaller than your old bedroom, but every person needs their “zone.”
