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.)

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.
