I found it! I found my perfect caravan. It was only a short step off the ferry before I spotted it late one\u00a0afternoon.<\/p>\n

The start<\/h5>\n

After the ferry crossing to the South Island, I arrived in Picton and stayed in a cabin at a quiet camp ground (future scouting). That night, I started\u00a0wondering if buying a caravan\u00a0was such a good idea. It was freezing cold and raining. It was a long walk\u00a0to the toilet and kitchen. I was tired of packing and unpacking my car. I was starting to wonder if this was what I really wanted to do. Shouldn’t I spend this\u00a0money on something else? A good house deposit somewhere outside of expensive Auckland?<\/p>\n

I was in a funk until driving the next day. Then my travellers curiosity appeared again. The South Island scenery is\u00a0stunning as always and as I drove through tiny towns, I thought, I could come back and stay here cheaply in my caravan!<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t
