I really feel you trying to organise such a small space, I raised 5 children in a caravan just a little larger than your own..but we had no vermin free storage space outside either..for the mold ofcourse everything must be kept dry warm and ventilated,not easy when it rains! For hard to get to spaces,fill a sock with woodbased cat litter,it helps soak up any condensation..ofcourse you need to check and renew once in a while. Also the little dehumidifier gel boxes you can find in the Chinese shops here help too.

Thank you so much Fiona ❤️🙏❤️ You are our hero! Living with 5 kids in a caravan 😲 sounds really intense. Great tips as well. The ventilation is sometimes hard as you say. After three days of rain and mist everything just feels damp. We use ceramic stones (made from silica) in the wardrobe to absorbe the moist and dehumidifier under the beds. We’ll try the socks filled with woodbased cat litter 👍 The most difficult area is our (still) open kitchen. We love wooden spoon’s but they turn black already after some days. We turned to using more stainless steel and some things are made from plastic 🫣 Luckily that will change after our final kitchen is built. We are curious, what is your living situation at the moment? Still out in nature? Sending love your way ❤️

3200 without everyone inside? Add the humans and a full tank of fuel..glad you made it..please though,this number is not just for fun. Its the braking capacity of the vehicle fully loaded..being over can be deadly,is it worth the risk? Ps..I think the weight for thar vehicles allowance is 3.5t..in which case you were just on the limit,allowing for yourself and fuel/water etc.

[@CreateYourOwn_Paradise]

🫣Yes 3200 without us inside 😬 We won’t do that again 🤞🏼

Hi there so you are living in Spain ? How do you make a living to survive for your cost of living ?

[@CreateYourOwn_Paradise]

Dear Ironfistarrival, we lived in Spain a while ago. Nowadays we share our time between the Netherlands and Portugal. Making a living while travelling is always difficult, I know. So far we work it out by saving money while working back in the Netherlands. Lots of love your way ❤️
