About this audiobook
Ever wondered about wandering?
Keen to embrace the freedom and fun of the open road?
Unsure where to start? Look no further, this is the audio-book for you.
When Ali and Mike Kingston set off on their first trip in December 2002 they chucked what they thought they needed into the back of their new motorhome, set off, and learned what to do as they went along. Now, with four motorhomes on four continents and 130,000 miles behind them, Ali really understands what it’s like to live in a little house on wheels.
Drawing on their experiences Ali has compiled this guide providing the information they lacked for that first trip, all brought to life with anecdotes gathered along the way.
Whether considering a motorhome for a holiday or as a complete lifestyle change, one thing is certain: This book will inspire you to get started on your next adventure.
An Author's Republic audio production.
