You know we’ve been running this survey on the website that asks how many times a year people use their camper?
Well you’ll be amazed to know 100% of respondents said “once every 3 months”! I was flabagasted to learn that people are not getting their money’s worth out of their camper and only using it 4 times a year. (Isn’t that interesting from a buyers perspective?)
I presume this is because they are possibly too busy or only take time off during school holiday periods. Regardless, if you own a camper, you need to get out and use it, and enjoy more time off….right?
Here are some brilliant tried and tested tips to help you develop your own Escape Plan:
- Take weekend or 2-3 day trips to locations close by (ie: within 30mins drive of home)
- Get organised with your trip planning checklist to save time and make quick getaways.
- Make a booking at a campground in advance to give you a commitment and date to work to.
- Briefly research locations to find the most exciting, adventurous, relaxing etc, that suits your desired escape plan.
- And here’s the BIG tip; Whilst still in the camper and just before you are about to pack up and return home, determine where and when you will be going to next!
This last tip is the most important but don’t make your holidays too far apart. Most vans are self contained and quick and easy to set up. You should seriously aim to getaway more than six times a year, or even once a month. Taking more short trips will allow you to achieve this without affecting life’s other obligations.
