Title: Another Newbie
Post by: Kevo on March 07, 2012, 09:28:30 PM: G'day everyone!

What a great forum! I discovered it a few days ago and have been glued to it since then. I'm currently a tent camper and recently took my wife on her first camping trip which she enjoyed fortunately. I'm in the market for a second hand camper trailer to make it easier to go more often. We have two year old son and I want to teach him to love the outdoors from as young as possible and get him out of Sydney as often as possible.

I've learnt heaps from this forum already, so thanks for that.

Chat soon
Kevo.

Kids love camping, they love to learn about the great outdoors, they are sponges for the information.
If the wife is happy, well hey ;D
Happy wife, Happy life :cup:
We've been camping with our three( Nealy 14, nearly 12, nearly 10) since 05,
Last year at Easter I taught the youngest, To start a fire with a magnifying glass

Picture Levuka 2011, he's now our fire caretaker at home when we have a camp cookup or when out camping.
Happy & Safe travels.

Hope you find your dream camper, it will be out there for sure, all depends on the $$$$. As you have probably already worked out, you just need to ask.
This forum is one sure way to chew up some serious time, enjoy.
